The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 209
Episode 209 Fishing time (1)
Muscle loss.
A magic word that can provide dozens of thrilling games to those obsessed with muscle.
Muscle loss is scary. I feel like everything I’ve done so far is being torn down in one fell swoop. It gives us a sense of deprivation that all the sweat and effort we have put in so far has been in vain.
So we become obsessed with the protein ratio of our diet. When I exercise, I am concerned about whether progressive overload is performed properly. Even when I go for a walk with my lover, I worry first about whether my aerobic energy is too much. Even when I get kicked miserably, I don’t even shed tears for fear of muscle loss.
That is the psychological pressure and fear of muscle loss.
And now.
Rakiel’s loud shout properly struck the detonator in the hearts of the Orc warriors regarding such muscle loss.
“…You can’t run away!”
“If you want to escape, you have to run!”
“Running gives you aerobic energy!”
“If you do a lot of cardio, you will lose muscle, kkuik!”
They were Orc warriors who were losing their fighting spirit as they saw the ghosts of their ancestors, family and friends appear before their eyes. Some of them even dropped their weapons and tried to run away.
But belated realization woke everyone up.
“Raise your weapons!”
“Forearm muscles pumping!”
“Concentrate on your quads and posterior chain while lunging!”
“Hip hinge! Coordination kwiiik!”
Everyone regained their fighting spirit.
I picked up my weapon again.
We moved forward vigorously.
Of course, during this time, the ghosts of my ancestors’ family friends continued to attack me. They rampaged around, disturbing their eyes and ears, and unleashing a mental attack so severe that it damaged their souls.
‘Son… can’t you hear my voice? Squeak!’
‘brother…! ‘Turn your tongue!’
‘Quick, my friend!’
But everyone closed their eyes and ignored it. Even if you stop now, they won’t even lift the weight of the bar!
‘I’d rather beat up the warlock!’
After I regained my composure and thought about it, it was like that. It was that warlock who dared to capture the souls of our precious ancestors, family and friends as ghosts. That guy is the guy I’m going to beat to death. If we just defeat that guy, the souls of our precious people will be released and we will be able to ascend to the sky!
“Tulkeoeoeook kkuik-!”
Brash, who regained his fighting spirit, roared. The Orc warriors resumed their charge that made their pectoralis major muscles magnificent. Thanks to this, the warlock Kartu….
‘What crazy people!’
It was absurd.
He attempted to pollute their minds by unleashing hundreds and thousands of ghosts. In fact, it was forbidden and terrible black magic. It was that powerful. It was virtually impossible to endure with mental strength alone. That was universal common sense and the established theory of warlock academia.
But now?
Mere orcs were doing it! Even as a group! Just a crazy obsession with muscles!
‘Nonsense!’
Cartu’s molars were ground so roughly that it sparked the dentist’s greed for implant surgery.
At the same time, a big smile appeared on Raquiel’s mouth.
‘…as expected!’
He clenched his fists. On the other hand, it reminded me of the contents of the novel Demon Sword Emperor. Cartu is a warlock who becomes infamous in an episode from the middle to the end of the novel. The wide-area magic he mainly used was this technique called ‘Wraith Play’.
‘In the process of manufacturing undead, this guy would trap the souls of the remaining victims as ghosts and treat them like servants. And then, what happens when you are faced with a crisis? ‘I have freed all the ghosts that were controlling me.’
A situation where thousands of ghosts are running wild and screaming from all directions. Its power was enormous. Even quite elite troops would lose their mentality in an instant.
It was natural. Usually, people scream or faint when they encounter just one ghost. Or, even people with very strong courage can barely hold on and then end up using it as a snack for the rest of their lives.
But what if thousands of ghosts run wild? That alone is enough to make an ordinary person go crazy. Most people suffer trauma that will haunt them for the rest of their lives.
Thanks to this, this ‘Ghost Game’ has established itself as a representative signature magic that most brightens Cartu’s notoriety.
‘So of course I expected that to be used first. When there comes a moment when you’re a little cornered.’
That prediction was correct.
The situation that followed was the same.
I saw that the orc warriors would be in danger. What would happen if not just ghosts but the ghosts of family and friends appeared? It was thought that the assault would be halted and, in the worst case, the entire punitive force might disintegrate.
So I prepared.
‘Orc’s special custom method to overcome fear!’
Fear can be overcome with greater fear. What if you’re scared of going to work? Just think about the card payment and loan interest you will pay next month. What if you are afraid of quitting your job? If you feel the fear that if you keep going like this, you’ll lose your mentality and end up at the police station with a knee kick in Manager Kim’s face, your decision to resign becomes a little easier.
The same goes for overcoming the fear of ghosts. Something that orcs are much more afraid of than ghosts. All you have to do is insert it into the cerebral cortex.
That was the fear of muscle loss.
“Our parents didn’t give us birth to be weak!”
“Losing muscle! “It’s unfilial piety!”
Brash’s Roar!
Orc warriors charge!
Green muscle mass rushed in like a tidal wave. There was no one blocking the way. Warlock Cartu faced the charge alone, like a small sailboat floating on a stormy and angry sea.
But he was not easily embarrassed. He was a powerful warlock. He was not easily discouraged simply because one of his spleen attacks was ineffective.
This was because a more vicious magic remained.
‘So you guys are going to come out like that?’
A silent smile formed on his lips. Both hands were stained an ominous black color.
Tsusss!
At that moment, the Orc warrior running at the forefront struck down his axe.
“Die kkuik!”
Kwajak!
The ax hit the top of the defense magic’s head. The magic circle shook and was engulfed in harsh waves. However, it was not pierced or split. Instead, Cartu stretched out his hand.
‘First one!’
Hot!
He grabbed the forearm of the orc warrior he had axed. However, the captured Orc warrior laughed as if it were absurd.
“What is it, kkuik?”
The warrior felt ridiculous. You reach out first to a warlock with bare hands and grab yourself. I couldn’t feel even the slightest grip strength. It almost felt like the young orcs’ grip was stronger.
‘Corrupt bastard! Do you really want to be beaten like this?’
Then I will do as you wish.
It was the moment when the orc warrior was about to lift his captured forearm.
…Tsuzuzutsu!
Suddenly, a strange and ominous sound rang out. Where? From the forearm grabbed by the warlock. And at the same time… all the strength began to drain from my body!
“uh? “Uoeook kkuik?”
The orc warrior’s eyes widened. At first, I thought it was an illusion. But it wasn’t. In an instant, my strength relaxed, my legs relaxed, and my eyes relaxed. why? why?
‘This warlock… use my power… squeak.’
It’s sucking!
It is certainly!
“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!”
The orc warrior, who belatedly realized the situation, hurriedly tried to shake off his arm. But even that didn’t work out as planned. Before I knew it, I didn’t even have the strength to swing my arms. No, it became impossible to even lift my arms. The warlock’s grip even exerted a powerful suction power!
“Kku kku ik! Wow! Kuiik!”
More and more strength was lost. My eyesight became dizzy. I fell to my knees without realizing it. I barely raised my head and looked up at the warlock. It was only when our eyes met that despair came over me.
‘My life force… squeak…’
It doesn’t just take away strength. It is greedily sucking up life force. Goosebumps arose with realization.
Meanwhile, other Orc warriors rushed in. I hit Cartu’s defensive magic countless times. However, it was a defensive magic that managed to block Damian’s storm of swords. Although the warriors’ onslaught was fierce, they could not be easily destroyed in a short period of time.
Thanks to this, the orc warriors went into an uproar.
“That warlock is doing strange things!”
“Kumash was captured and is getting thinner!”
“no! “That’s not about getting thinner… It’s about muscle loss, squeak!”
“What kwiik?”
The eyes of the Orc warriors who realized the situation burned even brighter. It’s a vicious magic that causes muscle loss if caught. I have never seen such a vicious and vicious person in my life.
“That’s crazy!”
“Hey! “Look at the pectoralis major muscle shrinking!”
“Even the deltoid muscles are gone. Oh my gosh!”
Everyone stamped their feet in sadness and chased Cartu away. However, after completely thinning out the first victim, Cartu slowly grabbed another victim as if selecting his next prey.
‘He did it again!’
Tsuzzzzzzzz!
“Kku kkuik!”
Another Orc warrior has fallen to the brink of muscle loss. The worse Urus charged.
“Nuuuu!”
Kwaang-!
He openly took Cartu by the horns. However, the defense magic could not be completely broken. Rather, Cartu took advantage of the shock inflicted by Urus. It flew with its body riding the force of the impact. It clung to an Orc warrior far away.
‘another one!’
Tsuzzzzzzzz!
“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!”
The orc warriors began to agitate. At best, I overcame the fear of muscle loss and gained courage to attack, but at the end of the day, the nightmare of even more muscle loss was waiting for me!
‘What kind of guy is that… squeak!’
Now, in the eyes of the Orc warriors, Cartu is beginning to be seen as a demon that causes muscle loss. A demon that cannot be killed even if you hit, cut, or cut it. A rare robber who steals your muscles if caught.
“Hit it anyway! Fight, warriors!”
Chief Brash encouraged the warriors. The warriors who received strength from his encouragement became even more angry. But the more it happened, the more Kartu regained his composure.
‘do. It works!’
He was sure.
I hope we can get out of here safely today. Right now, the orc warriors are angry and using evil, but soon that anger will turn into anxiety and helplessness.
‘No matter how hard you hit me, you won’t be able to easily break my defense magic. But what about me? ‘Because I can turn you people into ruins if you catch them!’
Just shake it a little more like this. Moreover, he didn’t just have life absorption magic.
Cheap!
A gray magic circle appeared in his other hand, which was not holding the orc warrior. Thirty spheres sparkling with ominous colors emerged from the magic circle. It was a sphere the size of a small bead.
Wedge! Puff puck- puck!
The spheres that flew following his hand gestures lodged in the bodies of the orc warriors. Since the sphere was small, the wound was also small. But the real damage started from then on.
“Ugh? That thing? “Quick?”
The Orc warriors who were hit by the sphere trembled. He drooled, his eyes turned red, and he lost focus. It looked sideways like a rabid dog. He started attacking the comrade next to him with all his might!
“Guwoeook!” Guwok! “Quick!”
“Huh? “Why are you like this? Kkuik!”
The thirty Orc warriors hit by the sphere all went into a frenzy. The warriors’ formation was instantly disrupted.
Cartu did not miss the opportunity.
‘…Prince!’
The crown prince, who was retreating from a distance, was caught in the field of vision. It’s him. All you have to do is catch that guy. Whether you take him hostage or kill him and use him as a servant, if you finish off that crown prince…
‘You can get out of here. ‘I can win!’
Cartu’s eyes lit up with confidence.
Rachiel also felt those eyes.
So it was.
“Damian. “Go away.”
“…yes?”
Damian felt embarrassed. It was a situation where the warlock was running rampant. The guy is even coming this way and is blatantly targeting the crown prince.
But go away.
why?
The prince’s incomprehensible orders continued.
“If you step down and I get caught by that guy, we’ll win today.”
“….”
Are you crazy?
I wanted to ask again.
But at that moment, Damian realized that the crown prince had a sinister, meaningful smile on his face. At the same time, he instinctively felt: Ah, that warlock is going to be very pitiful today.
