The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 485

Episode 485 Let’s break it down (1)

“Uh, shall we start with acupuncture?”

Sigh!

It was as soon as he finished speaking. Before I knew it, the thorn that Raquiel had pulled out was stuck between the eyes of Flores, the Flower Dragon, at the speed of light. It was literally a direct headshot without any hesitation.

“…Huh?”

Flower Dragon Flores was very embarrassed. She suddenly had antennae-like thorns between her eyebrows and looked at Rakiel with wide eyes.

And shouted urgently.

“damage!”

It was right after her cry came out.

…Whoa?

A violent current of mana began to gather in the thorn between her eyebrows. Rakiel felt it too. But it was already too late.

‘uh?’

It’s fierce.

A strong feeling comes and hits my chest.

At that moment, he had to see with his whole body.

Between the eyebrows of the flower dragon where he inserted a thorn. The majestic and destructive sight of the mass of mana gathered there turning into a torrent and exploding towards oneself.

Two-four!

“…!”

Is this what it would feel like if a grenade without shrapnel explodes right in front of you?

Memories of the past days were about to pass by in front of my eyes as an 8K video. Night lights? I don’t know. I didn’t have time to think about that.

Rakiel reacted reflexively.

‘Cannot be sunk!’

It was an explosion that had already exploded. It was coming upon me so quickly. The time to escape has already been missed. So I crouched down as much as I could. I blocked the front with both arms. The skill option was activated.

Ding dong!

[Exclusive option ② for the Creepy Heart skill: Activates irreversible.]

[The strong durability of the Mana Circle protects the nervous system. During the 5 minutes that the optional function is activated, you can withstand any shock without fainting or losing consciousness. (Limit: once a day)]

Kuddeuk!

Along with the system message, I felt something inside my body becoming stronger. I feel like my nervous system, which used to be like soft noodles, becomes as strong as a pot of steel soup.

The storm came shortly thereafter.

…Kwaaaa!

‘Keoheook.’

The sight before my eyes became completely white. Is the forearm raised for defense safe? For a moment, I saw a glimpse of the flowerpot dragon moving its hands. It seemed as if she was blocking the space between this side and her own eyebrows with both palms.

And the whole body floated in the air.

‘…huh.’

Am I being ejected into heaven or hell? Suddenly, I remembered receiving a bonus life reward from the King of Hell not long ago. I wondered if they had already used it. I felt like crying a little. I just practiced acupuncture. I was just trying to treat a flowerpot suffering from anorexia. But why did this sudden lightning strike…

It was then.

Wow!

Two steel pillar-like forearms supported and hugged this person, who was flying away like a paper doll. Place one arm on the back of this side and the other arm on the back of the knee on this side. It was the perfect princess hug.

The shock came late.

“…Pukeaaaak!”

Is it because the momentum of the flight was so strong? Or maybe it was because the forearm holding it was harder than common sense. A huge shock was inflicted on my back. To be honest, I thought it would be better to be hugged by an iron pillar.

‘Huh huh huh huh…’

I had trouble breathing. What about my spine? What about ribs? Are you safe?

“I’m glad. “It doesn’t look like anything is broken.”

“….”

A voice was heard sighing in relief (?). I lifted my dizzy gaze and looked at him. A confusing view, with two or three overlapping images. Inside, I saw a flowerpot dragon with a bitter smile on his face.

“Are you okay?”

“….”

no.

at all.

Never.

“You almost died.”

“….”

Yes, I know.

“So why are you pricking me with thorns like that?”

“….”

No, I didn’t know it would be like this.

“I didn’t know it would suddenly stab me. If I had known that would happen, I would have explained it in advance. “That’s automatic defense magic.”

“….”

They say it’s defense.

I almost killed someone just now?

That thing looked like reactive armor on a tank…

“I’m sorry. But this is something I can’t help. “My mom hung it up, so I can’t take it off.”

“….”

You are a hatchling, but your name is a dragon?

That doesn’t work?

“Because of my anorexia, I don’t have the strength to move my mana in detail.”

“….”

aha.

“…is a piece of shit! “You almost died!”

I finally got my breathing back. As soon as I could breathe, I started screaming. It was because I felt that if I didn’t do that, the injustice of being dealt a sudden disaster would not be resolved.

However, the answer that came back from the flower pot dragon only reminded me of the cold truth of the world.

“So who wants to stab me like that?”

“…Okay.”

“Besides, I blocked more than 90% of the explosion force with my palm and even caught you as you were being blown away.”

“…Keueuung.”

“But why am I so unfair and dissatisfied?”

“…Off.”

“answer?”

“Gamsssshamhapnyudea….”

“…If you’re going to do that, don’t thank me.”

“It’s okay…”

“Can you stand on your own?”

“Ugh yeah. “Roughly speaking.”

Only then did Rachiel realize. The fact that she was still being held by the flowerpot dragon in the princess-hugging position.

I got down in a hurry.

To be honest, my legs were shaking. I felt like I got a one-two hook from Tyson as a wake-up call. But he wasn’t embarrassed.

‘Whew. I got hit unexpectedly, but there were no injuries. ‘That’s enough.’

And at the same time, I was satisfied. It was thanks to the response he showed earlier when the explosion of automatic counterattack magic exploded.

‘I activated the skill option correctly.’

Impossible to sink.

An option for the Shameless Mind skill.

It was a reliable option that ensured that you would never faint for 5 minutes once activated. However, I have hardly ever actually used it properly. It was because I always felt shocked, like I was in a car accident, at the moment of ‘Ah’.

‘Especially when I was chasing Tusik in the mine. Honestly, if I had used this option properly at the time, I would have had less trouble.’

However, using the option at the right moment was not as easy as I thought. If you run into a polar bear in an alley and a fight breaks out, you dodge its front paws and hit back with a coke bottle at that moment, and you normally think about what to do, but when the situation actually happens, it’s a sad logic(?) like being taken to the hospital with a bang. .

‘But this time it was successful. good job.’

Thankfully, I didn’t faint during that time. I was proud. But on the other hand, I also felt a little at a loss. This was because he realized once again what kind of difficulties the medical treatment he was trying to pursue had faced.

“There, then. “Mr. Flower Dragon?”

“huh?”

“That automatic defense spell just now. “Are you sure you can’t turn it off?”

“huh. no. Because I don’t have the strength. “I’m hungry.”

“….”

“I’ve been like this since I became anorexic. Really. “I have no energy.”

“Whoa. “Then there is no way.”

“yes.”

“….”

Rakiel swallowed the sigh that was about to escape. Ultimately, anorexia is the problem. Only when this is resolved will everything else be resolved.

he asked, feeling a pain in his spine.

“Write it. Then maybe. Does the automatic defense magic cover Flower Dragon’s entire body?”

“huh. “Because it’s a defensive magic.”

“…It’s a big deal.”

He looked around the messed up lab and sighed. When I thought about it, it was really a big deal. An ultra-sensitive version of automatic defense magic that responds to stimulation as strong as being pricked by a thorn that cannot be canceled at will.

‘Then, first of all, acupuncture and moxibustion treatment are gone.’

Every time you touch the hour, you have to risk your life.

Normal medical treatment is impossible in this situation.

It was even more disappointing.

‘Write it. Acupuncture is the best treatment for anorexia.’

Since ancient times, Oriental medicine views the body as moving together with the mind. The two are not separate. The same goes for anorexia, which is caused by wrong eating habits or obsessive psychology.

‘Due to depression, anxiety and obsession, abnormalities occur in hypothalamic receptors. Stagnant blood and stagnant blood accumulate in the spleen, small intestine, and liver, which are responsible for digestive functions. The unstable state thus created affects the psychology again and further disturbs the function of the hypothalamic receptors. It’s a vicious cycle.’

How to break that vicious cycle?

In my experience, acupuncture was the most effective.

Appropriate stimulation of the needle can regulate the actions of the sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves, stabilize hypothalamic receptors, and relieve stress. In addition, since it is now possible to observe hour hand feedback in real time through acupoint scanning, such effects will be further maximized.

‘But if you can’t use it… I guess there’s no answer?’

Rachiel was worried.

Is it just psychological counseling?

no.

I am not a professional counselor.

I did not want to ruin the patient with my hasty pride in something outside my area of expertise.

“…Then there’s nothing I can do.”

In the end, Rachiel made a decision.

“Mr. Flower Dragon?”

“huh?”

“But anyway, you still have to get treatment, right?”

“What if they provide treatment?”

“great. “Then, starting tomorrow, come to the Byeonggung Oriental Medical Clinic every morning.”

“To get treatment?”

“yes. Since the first treatment starts at 9 o’clock, it would be better for you to come a little earlier, at 8 o’clock.”

“Are you being considerate so that I don’t run into other people?”

“no. “It’s because I feel comfortable at that time.”

“….”

“I will give a word to the villa guards and royal guards in advance. I will also send an official letter to the academy and the professor in charge. “I am requesting your cooperation in allowing Ms. Flora, an assistant professor in the alchemy lab, to come to see me every morning as she needs special treatment.”

“So what kind of treatment are you trying to use now that you can’t use acupuncture, which you were confident enough to try?”

“Acupuncture.”

“huh?”

“I can do it.”

“how?”

“Goodbye.”

Rakiel responded calmly.

It was quite sincere.

No matter how you think about it, acupuncture is the most reliable treatment. If you have that as a basis, it will be effective, whether it’s psychological counseling or relaxation techniques through Chuna therapy.

So it was.

“You can set up a defense against automatic defense magic and use acupuncture. “If the shock is reduced to a certain degree, I am confident that I will not pass out for five minutes.”

“So you’re going to use something called acupuncture while enduring an explosion of automatic defense magic?”

“yes.”

“You’re crazy.”

“I admit it.”

Rachiel burst out laughing.

It’s crazy even to think about it.

But I can’t help it.

Moreover, if you think about it, you will be able to consistently practice activating ‘Unsinkable’, an option for the Assassin’s Mind Technique skill, so if you think about it, there is a small benefit to be gained.

“Then I’ll see you tomorrow morning.”

“…okay.”

Rachiel hurriedly left the laboratory, still slightly staggering. Flower Dragon Flores looked at him with worried eyes.

And from the next day, Rachiel’s special training (?) under the pretense of treating the flower dragon’s anorexia began.
