The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 153

Episode 153 New concept of dystoma treatment (1)

“This is Paragonimus westermani.”

It’s too late to call it winter, but it’s a bit early to call it spring. Rachiel’s diagnosis was made in a corner of the villa garden where cool breezes and warm sunlight coexist.

He pointed to Bboboki’s flame fin display. There, wriggling around, was a plump, oval-shaped bug like a kidney bean.

“See? This is a parasite called lung fluke. It’s literally taking up residence in your lungs and causing all sorts of harm. “By using you as a host.”

“….”

Elf Sylvia frowned. Her eyes fell on the lung fluke. The moment your eyes touch it, the lung fluke starts to stir. She was also shocked without me knowing.

‘Something like that? ‘It’s in my body?’

A doubt arose.

I couldn’t believe it.

No, since it was the result of a phantom species, I could believe it. But I couldn’t understand why such a monstrous parasite was coiling up inside my body.

“Is this true?”

“yes.”

“why?”

“yes?”

“I have never been the victim of evil black magic or anything like that. I wasn’t cursed by witch doctors or anything like that. When an evil spirit appeared, I just cut it down. But I’m being toyed with by parasites like that? how? By what means?”

I really didn’t understand. He was the executor who handled the clan’s external affairs. He was literally the one who was on the front line of resolving the various complex conflicts and conflicts that the clan experienced with the outside world.

Of course it was powerful.

What do humans call Sword Master? I was confident that I could compete. Archmage? It wasn’t soft enough to be easily affected by their magic.

“But what about parasites? “I just can’t figure it out.”

“Of course. “Something I don’t know.”

“…what?”

One of Sylvia’s eyebrows twitched.

Rachiel’s calm explanation continued.

“It happened because I ingested lung fluke larvae without my knowledge.”

“Confucian scholars?”

“yes.”

“What is that?”

“Well, let me give you a rough explanation about lung flukes…”

Rachiel took a deep breath. Eventually, with a calm face, he started shooting out content that was not at all calm, like a rapid-fire gun.

“First of all, lung fluke eggs are extremely small. 100 nanometers is about 0.1 micrometer. Such creatures wander around in the water as ciliated larvae (miracidium) and then infiltrate the bodies of the primary hosts, such as snails. “In it, we split up one way or another, do some clucking, and voila, we transform into something called Yumi Larvae.”

“What…”

“Anyway, when the secondary host, a freshwater crab or crayfish, eats the crab, it goes there again. And there it waits for its final host. Well, sometimes we go through animals like wild boars at least once.”

“for a moment. “Then what?”

“Did you notice?”

Sylvia nodded slightly. As I listened to the explanation, I suddenly realized something.

“What if I catch and eat the freshwater crabs, crayfish, and wild boars you just mentioned?”

“bingo.”

Rakiel smiled brightly.

“It’s okay to eat it baked, steamed, or cooked hot in any way. No matter how bad the lung flukes are, they cannot survive in bubbling water or blazing flames. The problem arises if you eat raw freshwater crabs, crayfish, wild boar meat, etc., as you mentioned.”

“But I…”

“I know. You’re an elf. He loves plants deeply. That’s why we don’t light fires while camping. Because to make a fire, you have to burn wood. Not all elves even know how to use fire magic. “If you learn such evil magic, you might end up committing a terrible crime like burning the forest or bushes.”

“….”

“I understand. While camping, you can’t make a fire or use flame magic. There may be times when the food you carry runs out, right? At times like that, I catch a wild boar and eat it as raw meat. “It’s a pity that you didn’t have a friend.”

“What is jjolju?”

“There is such a thing. Anyway.”

Rakiel wiped the smile from his lips.

“The raw food you ate while camping became a problem. Thanks to this, the lung fluke larva entered your body and took up residence in your lungs.”

“But is this a big enough problem to make such a fuss about?”

Sylvia asked back.

Rachiel leisurely countered.

“When we first met last night. “From then on, I could smell a faint odor on my breath.”

“…what?”

“Inflammation will occur throughout the bronchial and lung tissue. There is a unique breath odor to people with such inflammation. Also, the breathing sound was a little strange. An annoying sound, like a slight air leak somewhere? “That could be a sign of pneumothorax.”

It was true.

Thanks to this, I was able to immediately sense that there was something wrong with this elf woman as soon as I met her. It was from then on. I looked closely and looked for opportunities. At that moment, her wrist, which was aiming a dagger at her neck, lightly touched the area of her collarbone.

I didn’t miss that opportunity.

I quickly used my pulse skill. We were able to individually identify her lesions. The cause of the disease was found. That wasn’t all. It became possible to predict what would happen to her body in the future.

“Right now, lung flukes have completely settled in your bronchi and small bronchi, causing inflammatory cell infiltration. The momentum is quite fierce. “Thanks to this, the infection persisted in your lungs and eventually a worm capsule developed into fibrous tissue was formed.”

“Chung…Nang?”

“It’s literally a bag of worms.”

“….”

“The cyst that has formed in the lung contains two lung flukes. A couple of sorts. Are you angry? Annoying, right? It’s not easy for us to become a couple either. “You fucking bugs.”

“….”

“Keuhum hmmm! sorry. I got so excited about the gradient without realizing it that I stopped. Anyway, the cyst contains not only lung flukes but also a variety of other things, including pus, necrotic host cell waste, and worm eggs. “It is truly an efficient package of human destruction.”

“So that’s a very bad thing…?”

“yes.”

“how much?”

“First, the symptoms of chills and low-grade fever will repeat. “You experience severe coughing and hemoptysis, feel fatigue, and even experience general weakness.”

“That…”

“You’ve already experienced it, right?”

“To some extent.”

Sylvia nodded obediently. Now I have no choice but to believe what this man says. In fact, recently she had been feeling extremely tired like never before. I had fever and chills every morning, and sometimes I couldn’t stop coughing.

And more often than not… I would cough up blood.

‘I just thought it was because I’ve been working too non-stop lately.’

He said he overexerted himself. I couldn’t rest for too long. After I finish this job, I think I’ll take a break for a while. Then it will get better naturally.

I thought it was complacent.

But it was a miscalculation.

It wasn’t just fatigue.

“That’s why. If you leave this alone, it will get worse. “It’s almost certain that you will win a full set of various complications.”

“Complications?”

“yes. Bronchitis, pleurisy, pneumothorax, green thorax, etc. All kinds of diseases related to the lungs will occur. “Inflammation occurs and recovery occurs over and over again until the final tech tree is lung cancer.”

“Lung cancer…?”

“It is an incurable disease. “You will die.”

“….”

“ruler. So what do you think? That’s the suggestion I made last night. We restore burned forests by providing ample money and abundant labor. “How about you accept that?”

“What if I refuse?”

“They don’t even provide treatment for lung flukes.”

“….”

Sylvia was at a loss for words. I finally realized it. This person is using his own illness as a hostage and a bargaining chip!

‘What the…’

Are there all terrible people? I was shocked by the cunningness of its means and intentions. But at the same time, I realized it again. That you have already been caught in a spider’s web. Also, the fact that I couldn’t refuse that offer.

‘…I’m going to get scolded by the elder.’

Perhaps the clan elder would be dissatisfied with that man’s method of compensation. There is no sincerity. I don’t feel any apology. I’m sure you’ll react that way.

However, Sylvia thought that it would be better to accept that person’s offer this time. The reason was simple.

‘I don’t want to die.’

Thanks to the phantom species, that human diagnosis became completely believable. If that were true, a terrible death would be waiting for him.

I didn’t like that. He studied, trained, and worked hard for at most 200 years to become an executioner, but he did not want to die in vain before completing the mission given to him.

Besides, he… isn’t still single!

‘I haven’t even met the opposite sex properly yet. Because I focus on training every day. My parents always told me that. You can start dating later after you become an executor. I think I’ll be able to do it to my heart’s content then.’

But the reality was harsh.

After becoming an executioner, I actually had less time to socialize with the opposite sex. Every day, I had to run to the site to resolve disputes and frictions within the clan. Meanwhile, love was just a luxury.

But my parents said again. He said he’s busy right now because he’s in the early stages of employment. It will be okay after a while. You can start dating later after you become a senior executive. I thought I would be able to do it to my heart’s content then.

“….”

mom. I don’t think that’s right. If that happens, I won’t be able to date even once until I become an elder.

Crack.

Sylvia gritted her teeth and made a promise. Even if we get scolded by the elder later, let’s follow that person’s suggestion for now. Let’s resolve the conflict and regain our health.

So it was.

“Then… if I accept their offer.”

“yes. “Do you have any questions?”

“Hmm. “How are you going to treat lung flukes?”

I was curious.

I was also anxious.

The entire body of this human being called the crown prince was filled with the smell of all kinds of medicinal herbs. They were all precious and sad plant friends. So on the one hand, I was extremely worried.

“You’re not sure… you’re trying to give me a potion made by pulling out, cutting, drying, and boiling precious plants, right?”

She thought of the treatment methods commonly used by those so called human doctors. I didn’t like that. It was terrible. No matter how much it is for your health, you have to sacrifice plants. I was reluctant to take on such a vicious task. Therefore, I wanted to make sure before deciding on treatment.

Of course, Rakiel had sensed her concerns from the beginning.

“ah. Are you afraid that I might bother the plants? If that’s the problem, you don’t have to worry. The prescription I’m giving you this time won’t contain any plants. At least for prescriptions that are consumed directly.”

“is it? really?”

“yes.”

Rachiel smiled faintly.

As if to tell me not to worry about anything.

As if that would be really good.

He pointed to the Minotaur Urus, which was rolling around in one corner of the garden and chewing its cud.

“That friend makes the lacquer poop by eating sumac trees. So, you can brew ‘cow luwak coffee’ with the lacquer tree, right?”

His smile grew brighter.
