Episode 579 Poison (6)
High Magnification Microscope and Centrifuge.
It didn’t take long to make it.
Of course, it was not a microscope that looked as clear as it is in modern times, but in the current situation, it is truly a savior.
Two modern medical devices.
It was only that, but the perfect stability came to my mind.
How much is it?
It is said that it is nothing more than an imitation that imitates the modern one.
What was in front of me was unmistakably a medical device.
“If only a proper checkup is possible… it will change history in the future.”
because i was ignorant
There will be fewer people dying from illness.
because I didn’t know the cause.
You wouldn’t have to annihilate an entire village with an epidemic.
because there was no solution.
Those who could not overcome the disease will gain strength.
That was enough.
For now, only five people will be saved.
But if a little more time passes, a hundred people.
thousand people.
Eventually, up to ten thousand.
It will save countless lives.
Now is the cornerstone.
The greed for medical devices has not disappeared yet, but now is not the time.
Ray packed his things and stood up.
“Let’s not think about distribution from the first drink.”
He finally descended the mountain.

When the morning has completely passed and the sun slowly begins to set.
The atmosphere in Count Sylvester’s family grew even more frozen.
The time when the attendants as well as the soldiers were waiting in a state of tension.
In the huge battle of the count family, the knights dressed in uniforms chatted with each other.
A middle-aged knight with a good physique shouted, spattering his saliva.
“The damage will only increase as time goes on! We must bury the servants before it is too late!”
Then, this time, an elderly knight sitting across from him raised his voice.
“How can you not think of anything else! They’ve been in the Count’s family for decades! Are you saying that we should come today and bury the people we greeted yesterday morning with our own hands!”
“Then what else could be better! If you keep going like this, your attendants and even your soldiers will be poisoned! How can the vice-captain of the 3rd Knights be so blind to the future!”
“Yeah man! How could you throw away the family members you used to live with so coldly! Not even a day has passed yet! Even if you search for a solution, you bring up the story that you will already bury the hat in the plate! Are you really a knight!”
As the conversation progressed, the atmosphere became more threatening.
All the older knights, led by the vice-captain of the 3rd Knights, came together, and the younger knights supported the middle-aged knight’s opinion.
The older knights were ahead of each other in terms of individual speaking ability, but there were many opinions to bury them in numbers, so the two opinions were still forming a confrontational structure.
Countess Sylvester, who was sitting in the seat of honor, sighed.
He knocked on the desk and gathered his gaze, he said.
“Sir, calm down a little. I called to discuss, but why do you only eat to fight?”
“…I apologize.”
“…I showed my lord a flaw.”
Even as they spoke, the son-in-law was still lined with knights glaring at each other.
If I keep going like this, it won’t end even if I stay up all night.
He opened his mouth again to convince the knights.
“The attendants are often looked after by healers. So don’t worry too much. Even if it’s not right now, won’t your condition improve after receiving treatment?”
“….”
“….”
“We must decide on the treatment of the attendants as soon as possible and catch the beast. But since we are all at odds like this… How enjoyable would this situation be if the evil beast saw it?”
At those words, the knights’ mouths were completely shut.
Count Sylvester’s words were extremely reasonable.
They had to decide on their treatment and start the search for the beast in earnest.
There is no such thing as leisurely time.
The knights bowed their heads to the count.
“…If that is what the Count intends…”
“…I am sorry for causing a commotion.”
One by one, the knights came to their senses and began to express their opinions little by little.
“Then, why don’t we form a group by accepting everyone’s opinions?”
Among them, Count Sylvester showed interest in the words of the young knight.
“Form a group. Keep talking.”
“yes. The attendants are said to be taken care of by the healers, but they do not know when or what kind of trouble will arise. In addition, since the beast may reappear and cause harm, I wonder if it is better for us to stand in order. For others, it is to find the thoracic water that has been poisoned. If that happens, won’t the attendants suffer more damage and the beast beasts won’t be able to move hastily?”
At his words, Count Sylvester silently stroked his beard and fell into thought.
The old knight shook his head and said.
“Obtain both servants and menacing beasts. It’s all about when things went well. Count Bonn’s soldiers number around five hundred. If the attendants die right away, only the soldiers who have been serving the count will suffer.”
The middle-aged knight who was confronting him also agreed.
“Certainly, if that happens, there will be losses not only in soldiers but also in time. Even if the bloody beast was inside the count’s house, it’s enough time to get out. The opinion itself was good, but it is realistically unrealistic unless the attendants are lying in bed and pleural effusions are not caught.”
In the first place, even non-soldier attendants could not move.
The place where the poison was found is a well, but there is no law that there is no poison in another place.
The opponent is a count’s family, and he has a strong heart to the extent that he unleashes poison without hesitation.
In addition, it was difficult to move the soldiers carelessly as there might be another poison.
That’s probably why Count Sylvester is still keeping his mouth shut.
Daejeon was overflowing with opinions about the treatment of attendants and the need to find the evil beast.
There was no fighting like before, but it was inevitable that there would be conflicting opinions.
The first thing to do is to find the pleural fluid.
The first thing to do is to ensure that the attendants recover safely and to see if there are any more places where the poison has spread.
Various opinions were poured out, but none of them were wrong.
That’s why it was difficult to ignore the views of the knights.
In the end, Count Sylvester was exhausted first for a long time without any results.
“Let’s do this today. Sirs, let us meet again tomorrow.”

Marquis Garen was lost in thought in the private room left alone.
“It’s a pity that it ends like this.”
Only five attendants were poisoned.
To be honest, Count Sylvester is just focusing on the fact that his family has been poisoned, not making a fuss over the poisoning of a few attendants.
It was obvious that if the attendants died like this, it would be rather light.
He seems to have brought in some healers, but he was not interested in those who were just surviving so far that the poisoned attendants did not die.
Rather, those who will be poisoned in the future.
What Gide and Sylveria are doing is more important.
From what I’ve heard, it seems that neither Gide nor Sylveria have come out since Count Sylvester’s words.
Marquis Garen laughed softly.
“Cluck. The Count is also very cautious.”
I just knew how much shit had burned inside.
Now that it happened, it would be difficult to poison Gide and Sylveria right now.
It wasn’t that there was no way to pressure Count Hana.
The Marquis of Garen looked out the window in the distance.
“Isn’t the Count really fond of a kid from Celia Kingdom?”
He was a kid I didn’t like from the first time I saw him.
He was tall on the outside, so even his appearance had a relationship with the elf.
Even Marquis Garen, who had been severely burned by elves before, did not like that.
However, instead of being polite to myself, I looked at him as if a dog was passing by, and his gaze caught me very much.
It just went well.
“Heh heh. I’ll teach you who is the best.”
If the youngster dies and the Count is put under a little pressure, it’s a success.
No, even if it wasn’t necessary, just tying the steps of the count who had to leave for the royal capital was enough profit.
The Marquis of Garen picked up his clothes.
long robe.
He took a bottle of wine in it and moved on.
* * *
As we descended from the mountain, it was around the time the sunset started to set.
“More time has passed than I thought.”
He hastened his steps.
Since it is unknown what kind of poison has spread, it is questionable how long the attendants will endure.
Since the Mana Rod was not properly developed, it was impossible to drive the poison out as in the case of Sylveria, so the only solution was to treat it medically.
When he returned to the private room, an unexpected passenger was waiting for him.
Leather boots that completely cover the ankles with a long robe.
A voice that I didn’t want to hear as if I was scratching my neck greeted me.
“Cluck. Are you coming now?”
It is a familiar face.
I don’t know about Marquis Garen, but every night when I was bored, I went to eavesdrop on their conversation.
Ray looked up at him with a mischievous smile.
“What happen? In such a cluttered time.”
“Guests don’t blame the owner for being noisy. You don’t have to be so vigilant. I just came here to chat about what happened to the count’s family.”
As he speaks, he shakes the bottle he took out of his arms.
That bottle is also a fairly familiar item.
Wasn’t it the bottle he had given to Sylveria just the day before?
I never thought I’d see it again here.
Ray did not erase his laughter and said in a hint.
“It’s not polite to turn a blind eye to a good drink. Come in.”
“Excuse me.”
let’s open the door
The Marquis of Garen followed closely behind.
After looking around for a while, he set the bottle on a nearby table and sat down.
“What is all that burden anyway? It doesn’t look like they’re going back to Celia Kingdom.”
Ray answered as he put down his burden.
“I am very cautious. After taking care of them one by one, it became like that before I knew it.”
“Keuk. okay. Be careful in everything.”
I don’t want to die from drinking poisoned wine.
Marquis Garen, who started a light conversation, poured alcohol into the glass in earnest.
There was something enchanting about the reddish liquid even from the outside
.
Ray didn’t have time to deal with the Marquis of Garen.
It is still unknown what would have happened to the attendants.
He hurriedly sat down and dumped the glass of wine from the Marquis Garen down his throat.
Seeing that absurd sight, Marquis Garen suddenly stiffened like a stone statue.
