Episode 461 How to succeed to the throne (1)

“Should I just cut open the buttocks, pull out all the pus, wash it off, and cut out the pus pockets inside?”

“…What?”

flinch!

The emperor flinched without even realizing it.

And I thought.

That must be really painful.

“You mean tearing it with a knife?”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

“Is it painful to touch anything?”

“That’s why I say it.”

“Isn’t there another way?”

“I don’t have any.”

“why?”

“It’s because the boil on your Majesty’s buttocks is so big and beautiful.”

“You haven’t even seen it in person yet, have you?”

“Would you mind repeating what I just said while making eye contact with the boil on your buttocks?”

“….”

The emperor closed his mouth.

And then I thought again.

It seems there is no way to fight against this.

“But. No matter how excellent your medical skills are, aren’t there always exceptions to human work?”

“Unfortunately, it seems that Your Majesty’s case is no exception.”

“How can you be so sure of that?”

“It’s because of your Majesty’s sitting posture.”

“…What?”

“Your Majesty said that a little while ago. They say it hurts to even touch anything. “If it has swollen to that extent, there will be no answer other than cutting it open.”

“But…”

“Are you really afraid?”

“….”

“I understand that Your Majesty is a holder of the Double Circle and also has deep expertise in swordsmanship.”

“….”

“In reality, there were times when you hit me like a punching bag and taught me various things, didn’t you?”

“….”

“I don’t want to believe that you are afraid of surgery because you are afraid of a scalpel the size of a finger, which is not a sword that can kill people.”

“….”

no.

It’s scary.

The scalpel is scarier than the real sword used in swordsmanship training.

To be honest, it really was like that. I don’t know why.

Why on earth does a small scalpel seem scarier than the hideous greatswords prevalent on the battlefield? I didn’t understand it myself. But it was scary! I was afraid! I was anxious!

“It’s okay. “I will do my best to make sure you don’t get sick.”

“Are my hands weak?”

“Did you also know?”

“I know. But…”

“Are you worried that in the current situation, if I were to use my weak hand, I would have to pat Your Majesty’s buttocks…?”

“…Adventure! Hmm! “Keuhum!”

“If that’s the case, please let go of your worries. “My technology has developed a lot over the years, and I am now able to significantly relieve the patient’s pain even when stroking an area far away from the affected area.”

“Is that true?”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

Rachiel bowed her head and suppressed her laughter. I just saw it clearly. The emperor’s overt expression of joy. The emperor must have realized his mistake(?) and quickly regained his solemn expression.

“Well, it’s not bad news to hear. Wow! hmm!”

“Can you please call your Majesty’s physician and Sir Gardin?”

“Hmm? “What did you mean?”

“The purpose is to slit your Majesty’s buttocks right away… no, to perform surgery.”

“But let alone my doctor, why Lord Gardin?”

“Of all the doctors I know, Sir Gardin is the best at surgery.”

Rakiel spoke honestly.

“Thanks to my luck, I have been able to learn a lot of the medical techniques of the past, but I have not yet surpassed Sir Gardin in surgical procedures such as cutting and sewing human skin. “But how could I, with my limited skills, dare to cut His Majesty’s buttocks with a knife… or rather, carelessly use a scalpel?”

“So… do you mean that because of your lack of skills, more eyes are looking at Jim’s buttocks?”

“He is truly a great surgeon.”

“…Keuhum! Hehehum!”

“Even if you don’t like it, I can’t help it.”

“Hehe hum! “Keuhum!”

“Please consider Your Majesty’s health first, as she is responsible for the peace and well-being of all the people of the Empire.”

“….”

“By any means, Your Majesty, are you still prioritizing your own feelings over the safety of the imperial family and the future of the empire?”

“….”

“Hello! “Is a moment of shame more important than the responsibility of a ruler?”

“….”

“Your Majesty’s body is not just yours! Your Majesty’s bottom is no exception! Please keep in mind that Your Majesty’s bottom is more important than that shame!”

“….”

Did you put gold on my buttocks?

The emperor wanted to cry.

But I already felt that there was nothing I could do. Even if we endure like this, there is no answer(?). No, the situation will get worse along with the boils on the buttocks.

This pretty and proud son will be even more extreme. Thanks to this, rumors about his buttocks will spread not only within the palace but also throughout the imperial capital.

“Whoa….”

Isn’t that too bad?

The emperor nodded, sighing as thickly as bone broth.

“…Prince, I grant your request.”

“This is indeed a wise decision, Your Majesty.”

Rakiel smiled contentedly.

The emperor, for some reason, felt tears welling up and quietly raised his head. I smiled slightly, trying not to let it flow. Why am I like this today? What did you say? Wouldn’t it be possible to send all the commands I just made flying up into the sky?

‘Heo Yiyu. really. It’s a good day. It’s a good day.’

Recently, I learned the identity and treatment of the disease that had been bothering me. In the process, I was able to see my son becoming more powerful than before. When I saw my son after a long time, I became more devoted to him than before. Okay, I was convinced again and again that this was enough.

I was happy.

I was satisfied.

I thought it was enough now.

It was then.

“Your doctor, Lord Mullex and Sir Gardin, is here, Your Majesty.”

The chamberlain’s sonorous voice pierced my eardrums.

Soon the door opened.

Noisy footsteps came running quickly.

“Zuuuuunhaaaa-!”

Sir Gardin rushed into the royal palace, shedding tears. Then he realized his actions too late and was shocked. I quickly raised my eyebrows, looking at what this person was thinking.

“Piero Gardin, personal physician of Crown Prince Raquiel Adria Magentano, meets with the rightful owner of this land, His Majesty the Emperor!”

“…Okay, okay, share the happiness with your master.”

“I am truly devastated!”

Nod!

Sir Gardin raised his bow with his forehead touching the ground and turned his body 180 degrees using his kneeling knee as an axis. And then I started shedding tears again.

“Zuuuuunhaaaa-!”

“Oh yeah. “It’s been a while, Sir Gardin.”

“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

“Oh, that’s right, I am. So you can stop yelling.”

“Zoooooo…!”

“Use it.”

“…ha?”

“Huh why?”

“I missed you!”

“Did you miss me that much?”

“Yes, Your Highness!”

Sir Gardin nodded, his mustache fluttering.

“I’ve been keeping my ears wide open so as not to miss even the smallest bit of news about His Majesty, so much so that my ear canals are almost worn out!”

“…Oh, did you do that?”

“yes!”

“Then lower your voice now. “Your Majesty is here.”

“Ah yes…”

“And the reunion greetings again later. “For now, there is something more important that requires your skill.”

“What is that?”

Sir Gardin tilted his head.

In fact, he was curious the whole time he was running after receiving his master’s call after a long time.

Why did the crown prince, who customarily went to pay greetings to the emperor upon returning to the imperial capital, call him to the imperial palace?

Rakiel asked with a grin.

“What about surgical instruments?”

“Oh, I brought everything as instructed.”

“good job. From now on, you will slit His Majesty’s buttocks.”

“…yes?”

“Oh, but you won’t be accused of treason, so don’t worry.”

“….”

It was from then on.

The surgery proceeded quickly.

The emperor lay sideways on the operating table that was prepared in an instant.

“First, I need to check the affected area, so please follow my instructions, Your Majesty. “If you are lying on your side, bend your legs and hug your knees with your arms.”

“You mean like this…?”

“Please pull your butt back further.”

“like this…?”

“You are great.”

“….”

I want to die.

The emperor thought with a red face.

However, none of the emperor’s doctors, Lord Rachiel and Sir Gardin, who were gathered together to admire(?) the emperor’s affected body, smiled. No, rather, his gaze became serious.

“…It’s bigger than I thought.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

“As His Majesty’s personal physician… I am in disgrace.”

“no. This isn’t Sir Mullex’s fault. “It’s because of your Majesty, who developed the disease by hiding the truth.”

“…keuhmmmm!”

“Did you hear, Your Majesty?”

“If it were you, wouldn’t you be able to hear it?”

“I truly apologize.”

“Don’t say anything you don’t mean.”

“It won’t hurt at all.”

“Is that what was in your heart?”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

“…Thank you.”

Soon the surgery began. Fortunately(?), the emperor’s boil was a simple abscess and not related to diseases such as hemorrhoids.

Thanks to this, the surgical procedure was simple.

“Let us begin. “My hand is a weak hand~ My hand is a weak hand~ Eheiyaa~”

The melody of Rachiel’s song as she pats the emperor’s back! At the same time, the emperor’s back and buttocks were completely anesthetized.

Sir Gardin picked up the scalpel.

Sigh.

An incision of approximately 4 cm was made horizontally along the swollen boil. Pus was pouring out. I wrung it out, wiped it, skimmed it, and washed it. Then the pus emptied and a space the size of a ping-pong ball was created.

“Good. Then, make an incision again from here to here.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

Rakiel gave instructions, the emperor’s physician Sir Mullex assisted, and Sir Gardin moved the scalpel and tools to cut out the entire sebum pocket that had formed inside the affected area. Extracted. I washed and disinfected the inside again.

“Then can we suture it now?”

Sir Gardin asked.

“no.”

Rachiel shook his head.

“I’m going to leave it open like this and just cover it with gauze.”

“…yes?”

“If you hastily suture it in its current state, pus may fill up again. So, you have to keep it open and continuously disinfect it.”

“Then…”

“The new flesh will fill in on its own. “That’s how it should be treated in this case.”

“All right.”

Sir Gardin, who understood Rakiel’s meaning, became busy again. A disinfectant ointment from the Villa Palace Oriental Medicine Clinic was applied to the inside of the emperor’s wide open affected area.

I pressed the gauze tightly(?). The top was covered again with gauze as thick as a diaper.

Meanwhile, Rakiel was also busy moving around. The pus and blood flowing from the emperor’s affected area were thoroughly wiped away.

I quickly organized and put away the mess of gauze and tools. I wanted to see if the emperor who had the surgery happened to see it.

‘Most people are a bit shocked when they see this much blood and pus coming out of their own bodies.’

That’s not good for the patient. It is the same whether the patient is an emperor or a beggar. The fact that consideration must be given is also the same.

With that in mind, after carefully organizing the operating room, Raquiel spoke to the emperor.

“Now that everything is finished, you may stand up, Your Majesty.”

“…Off.”

“Even though you were anesthetized, it will still hurt quite a bit.”

“I see.”

“Even if it hurts a little, you must put your weight on it properly and sit on the chair, Your Majesty.”

“…You mean the area where the surgery was performed is pressing?”

“That is so, Your Majesty.”

Rachiel said as if it were obvious.

“One hour from now is important. “You need to put your weight on the patient and sit down properly for an hour because the bleeding from the surgery site will stop.”

“If that’s the reason, shouldn’t you just press it?”

“This is because it will hurt less if you press yourself rather than having someone else press you.”

This is also true.

Anyone who has ever been sick knows this.

Anyone who has been hurt knows this.

Even if you apply red disinfectant to a sore spot, it hurts a little less if you apply it yourself than if someone else applies it.

This is because you can sense pain yourself and control the amount applied or the intensity of the touch.

“Please sit down properly even though it may be uncomfortable and painful right now.”

“…Okay, I got it.”

The emperor shook his head.

And then I looked at Rachiel with new eyes. My son doesn’t seem intimidated at all even in front of me anymore. Rather, the son is generous enough to take care of even the smallest considerations. Somehow, he seemed to have grown a lot more than before.

I was proud. A new confidence crept into my heart again.

Maybe that was why I didn’t know.

Half impulsively.

Half rationally.

I feel like the time has come.

I am thrilled that the day to say these words has finally come.

“Son, I think it’s time for you to sit on the throne.”

The emperor dropped a bombshell.
