Episode 169 Lessian Empire (4)
The two people who will remain in the Empire were decided fairly easily.
Hongyoung looked around the receptionists and sent a hand signal.
– So-Young and Heuk-Young remain in the Empire.
– All right.
– huh. I will.
– The rest will return to the Holy Land with me today.
Soyoung asked her doctor curiously.
– But did we really need to follow the Lessian Empire? I wish I could have stayed silent and guarded the academy.
– The comfort of the Holy Son is the reason for our existence. He told us to keep an eye on that gloomy mage, but our role is to rule it out if there is any danger.
I’ve said it so far, but there is no one who can’t understand it.
Soyoung put on a knowing expression.
– So that’s why you and Zeke talked like that?
– Since you said that the three families want to cooperate with each other, the reception committee should also follow suit.
– Hehe. But why are you black young with me? Speaking of fighting ability, I’m the weakest among the guards.
Wouldn’t it be difficult to deal with something happening in the Empire? means to
Hongyoung shook her head.
– What is required is not combat ability. It is important how many risks can be noticed in advance. I felt that you, the fastest among us in information processing, were a good fit.
– Did Heukyoung prepare for an unfortunate event?
– That’s right.
– Um… Okay.
– In exceptional circumstances, it is permitted to act at each individual’s independent judgment.
At her signal, the black spirit also nodded.
– Don’t worry about us and return to the Holy Land.
– All right. The security guards, including Hong Young, will return to Seongguk, but we will completely entrust the safety of the saint to the two guards.
With the signal, the appearances of the five receivers disappeared, leaving behind only a faint scent.
Perhaps, from now on, I will try my best only to restore the holy kingdom with all my might.
It took nine days by carriage, so at the speed of the receptionist, it would take a whole day to return.
Soyoung and Heukyoung, who were left alone, exchanged opinions.
– I’m thinking of digging right into the imperial family’s sovereignty dispute. I think it smells bad there.
– To agree. I’ll take over the watch over the princess. From now on, each night will proceed with their own report below.
– okay. let’s scatter
With the final signal, the two receivers disappeared from Rusella’s room like a lie.
The princess’s room is guarded by iron-clad guards. Even so, the reason why they can come in and out like their own room is probably because of the skills their family has cultivated while assisting the saint for nearly a thousand years.
* * *
Ray was summoned to the Imperial Family in the morning.
I was thinking that the time would come soon, but it seems that it is today.
As I followed the lady-in-waiting to guide me, I saw a large lobby door.
The door is studded with jewels and even has a magic circle on it, so it seems to be quite afraid of magic attacks.
Magic was attached to even one door, so this was more like a magic tower than a magic tower that was said to have been put into practice.
When the lady-in-waiting opened the door to the lobby, Ray raised her hand in gratitude and stepped inside.
Then, 4 princes and 3 princesses were seated there.
The age difference between them seems quite significant.
‘May the world be strong.’
Looking at them, Ray, who was giving the Emperor’s praise (?), slightly frowned when they didn’t move even after a while.
The basic greeting etiquette among nobles is that the lower one greets the higher one first.
In fact, a prince or a princess is a position one level below that of an adult.
Even so, if you don’t keep the etiquette, you’re trying to test yourself, or you’re thinking of giving a side.
Even if he went mad, he must have been mad.
The only ones who stood up after seeing him were Prince I, Prince Luke, Third Prince, and Princess Lee.
The rest of them seem to have made up their minds to look down without even getting up from their seats.
It was a caution that he would never be harmed even if he gave it to others.
Since he didn’t say hello, he didn’t even think to do it first.
He was just talking to himself as if mumbling.
“Yeah, even bastards say hello when they see each other.”
As soon as I spit out the harsh words with a nonchalant expression, a reaction came out.
It was the side of the three princesses I saw last time.
Ruthella shouted in a high voice.
“How dare you speak in front of anyone!”
At her cry, Prince Oh also rose from his seat.
“I was looking forward to it because they said that the saint of the Holy Land would come. However, in reality, it is rude enough!”
they were indignant
But Ray didn’t care if they resented or excremented.
It’s just that I’m a little annoyed that they didn’t keep the etiquette even though they called me out.
The prince, who had been keeping his mouth shut, opened his mouth belatedly.
“Everyone, stop. We invited the saint, and we are the ones who called him here.”
Everyone fell silent at his words.
Perhaps Prince Il’s words were the most weighty here.
Prince Il quickly apologized.
“I was just stunned by the saint’s appearance, so please don’t ponder too much. I apologize. I am the first prince, Jared.”
Even though Prince Il said that, the character of Princess Il showed a different reaction.
“Prince Il, I want you to clarify this part, but the crime of uttering unspeakable abusive language towards the imperial family is serious.”
“Mmm.”
Prince Il also suffered from her words.
If it was Princess Il and no one else, it would be a bit difficult to ignore her opinion.
Moreover, she is not even from her own faction, but from this prince’s faction.
The successor candidate could have been changed if things went wrong by recklessly pushing into these issues involving the saint.
Witnessing it as it was, Ray’s impression was more frowned than before.
Even if the emperor of the Lessian Empire was there, he couldn’t be that rude.
‘Is this how it comes out?’
If they were unkind, he himself had thoughts.
He turned his back on them.
“If you’re going to do something like this, hit me.”
What is urgent right now is the Lessian Empire, not the Holy Kingdom.
Besides, the Holy Kingdom did not carry out trade with the Lessian Empire anyway.
Since there was nothing to lose, there was nothing to be a problem diplomatically, and since the empire would not even think of going to war with the Holy Kingdom, there was nothing to be embarrassed about.
In the first place, the Seongguk, which had the ability to independently eliminate the Necromancer and the Bone Dragon, was implicitly the strongest nation on the continent.
But the question is how to maintain it.
Currently, the Seongguk has also cut off trade with neighboring countries. It won’t be long before a financially destitute castle can claim itself as the strongest country.
However, it is enough to make the iron-blooded lord flirt with the empire now lying on the ground.
Without hesitation, Ray opened the door to the lobby and went outside.
Our first meeting was the worst.
It doesn’t matter if you say hello or not.
It is a problem in itself that they had bad thoughts about themselves they had never met and showed them through their actions.
There was no doubt that he was still firmly mistaken.
If he spreads even a rumor that the iron lord’s condition is deteriorating, the empire could crumble from within.
It was because of the emperor that he was able to unite the internal rebel forces and the nobles who wanted to have sovereignty.
If the central point of the emperor disappears, the Lessian Empire, which is said to be the strongest country on the continent, will turn into a melee in an instant.
They should have been aware of the situation. To put it simply, he had to distinguish well between those who could be touched and those who could not.
I really wanted to throw away the catfish, but I had no intention of putting pressure on the emperor’s life and their rudeness.
In the lobby, he told him to get rid of it, but after returning to the private room, Ray thought deeply about the emperor’s illness.
On the parchment, I’m writing down what I might need to cure it, one by one, with Stiff-person syndrome written on it.
There is no need for surgery to treat this condition.
However, the drugs needed for it are a big problem.
Among immunosuppressants, drugs needed to cure stiff-man syndrome are benzodiazepines and chlordiazepoxides.
Of course, these two are important, and in detail, there is Cloben Tab., which relieves the symptoms of acute painful musculoskeletal disorders.
In modern times, supply would come in just by requesting it to the Uiguk, but there is no choice but to make it yourself or replace it with something else.
Rey recalled the emperor’s physical condition and thought about it.
In order to lower the tension of the muscles that have progressed so stiff, you probably have no choice but to find something that works similar to a relaxant and make it into a drug.
I know the degree of combination of basic drugs.
However, the recipe for the in-depth drug was unknown, no matter how much he said it.
Since it is not possible to create immunosuppressants or muscle relaxants like modern ones, a cure will be impossible.
However, even if it is a little uncomfortable, it will be possible to continue daily life.
I’m glad if that’s all there is to it.
It is unknown whether the rest can be healed with divine magic, but it seems that the muscle tension itself will be lowered and no serious problems will occur.
Ray wanted to heal the Emperor as soon as possible and return to the Holy Land.
I didn’t want to stay in the Empire anymore, but it was because there was quite a lot to do at the academy.
In order to do that, you have no choice but to go to find the drug yourself.
The first thing to look for is a plant called chamomile.
Chamomile is famous for its anti-inflammatory properties.
If you decoct this plant and drink it, it contains a large amount of anti-inflammatory substances that reduce muscle tension and relieve spasms of skeletal muscles.
Therefore, even if it is less effective than drugs, if you take it consistently, you can achieve a great effect.
The second thing to look for is blueberries.
Blueberries are high in anthocyanin, an antioxidant.
This substance called anthocyanin is a powerful anti-inflammatory like chamomile.
In addition, since it is rich in minerals and vitamin C, it was perfect for lowering cortisol levels.
If these are concentrated and taken by the emperor for a long period of time, the tension in the muscles will be significantly reduced and the body will be able to move.
As a side effect, sleep disorders that increase drowsiness when taken for a long time can come, but I was confident that I could fix that separately.
If the drug is made like a pill by concentrating the ingredients of chamomile and blueberry, and then repeated physical therapy, the treatment will finally go on track.
In the first place, Stiff Man Syndrome is not such a big disease.
It must be a life-threatening disease in another world, but it is just an immune system disease that cannot be cured in modern times.
The title of God’s hand would shed tears if it were blocked by such an illness.
There is a cheat called holy magic, but I didn’t want to lose.
Ray thought of different ways to treat it on the parchment and wrote it down.
If this doesn’t work, I’ll try another method.
Theoretically, it is possible to move the body, but you do not know what the result will be.
The problem from now on depends on how much the Emperor will follow his instructions.
