Plan To Search The Cure
Prince Dylan quickly got down and continued to walk closer to Prince Damon.
“Prince Damon, what made you stop walking?” asked Prince Dylan.
Prince Damon shifted his gaze to her. “There’s no reason why; I just stopped walking.” and looked at Adira again. Prince Dylan noticed that, so he also looked at Adira’s place.
“Then we have to continue again,” Prince Dylan said seriously, and he walked back to the throne.
Prince Damon smirked, and Adira saw that.
“It looks like this prince is planning something again,” she said as Prince Damon walked, her eyes narrowing.
When Prince Damon reached the top, he tried to approach King Stephen’s throne.
“Stop walking, Prince Damon. Don’t you dare approach or sit on my father’s throne,” Prince Dylan said seriously.
Prince Damon raised his eyebrows. “What else is the reason why you chose me if I’m not going to sit on the throne?”
“For the time being, Prince Damon. It is not stated that you will take over as king of our palace, so you can stay here, but you cannot come near my father’s throne and crown. You will also be the king of your palace, so don’t take possession of what should be mine.” Prince Dylan faced the soldiers, while Prince Damon just shrugged.
“On this day, Prince Damon, the prince of Valiant Castle, will temporarily hold our palace. Follow his orders or requests, but just don’t let him come near or even sit on my father’s throne,” Prince Dylan declared loudly.
Prince Dylan turned and stepped closer to Prince Damon. He raised his hand to shake hands, and this was Prince Dylan’s way of welcoming him to their palace. Prince Damon stared at Prince Dylan’s hand before accepting his handshake and facing the people in front of them.
Before the end of the tribute, Prince Dylan said something more, and then the soldiers returned to their place. Even Adira went out with them, but it was General Agustin that she wanted to talk to, so she went outside with the soldier.
When all the soldiers were out, even Adira, she immediately separated from them and chased General Agustin back into the palace.
“General, wait!” she called weakly.
It turned around and stopped. “What is that, young lady?”
“Can we talk?”
“About what?”
“In the true state of the king.”
General Agustin frowned. “What should we talk about that?”
“I already know what is causing the king’s health to gradually decline, so please give me time to explain everything to you in my room.”
General Agustin was skeptical at first, but he agreed immediately. He decided that he would enter the palace first, and only then would Adira follow.
They managed to get inside, but they didn’t meet the two princes who might be resting in their rooms.
“What should I know about the king’s illness?”
She bent under her bed and took out her heart and liver. She put it on the table and showed it to the general, but he covered his nose.
“Young lady, why do you have rotten animal parts in your room?” He covered his nose with his arm.NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
“Sorry for the smell, general, but I need these organs for my experiment. Take a look at the appearance of the heart and liver and tell me what you notice.”
General Agustin took the organ containing the heart and liver while covering his nose with one hand. He stared at it and then hung up.
“What did you notice?”
“I noticed that half of the heart and liver were slowly decaying. I saw that it was slowly decaying differently, not at the same time.”
She smiled a little at what the general noticed. “You are right, General Agustin, because of the poison that I put in those organs. The poison that I used in the heart and liver gradually destroyed other parts of the organs; this is not the poison that is taken and spreads immediately throughout the body. whole body. The type of poison used is what I can call “torture poison.”
General Agustin frowned. “Torture Potion?”
“Yes, the poison that will make someone suffer first before finally taking their life.”
“What does the king have to do with this?”
She looked at him seriously. “This is why King Stephen is lying down and hasn’t woken up yet.”
“How did you say poison was the cause? Where did you get the poison?”
She also took the cup from under the bed and put it on the table. “Because of that cup. One day, when you left me in King Stephen’s room, I saw it under the bed. I thought it was just where the cups were kept. It turns out that that cup. I got the poison from its mouth, and I suspected it because of the glistening oil in it.”
“Does it mean that it is a poison that torments the king and a disease that the doctor cannot diagnose?”
“That’s it, general.”
“What should be done then? Do we have to take the king to the hospital to treat the poison, you say? Another thing I’m confused about is how the poison was introduced into the king’s body using the cup. It also doesn’t come from the king’s dextrose because every time the doctor comes in, we carefully check the contents.”
“I think that King Stephen’s mouth is slightly opened, and the poison will flow there, so there is a stain of poison on the mouth of the cup.”
“Who would do that?”
Her face became serious, and she looked into the void. “That’s what we need to know, but right now I need to get the king treated as soon as possible.”
“Do you know anything about medicine?”
“In my work, I encounter many different cases like King Stephen’s. So sometimes I don’t just threaten the target. I also always know the condition of my client because of the target. The poison that entered King Stephen’s body is the most difficult to cure. The effect of the poison is not sudden, but the medicine to cure it is difficult to find.”
“What kind of medicine is needed, maybe the doctor has some?”
“What I need is a plant, Genera Agustin, not a doctor’s prescription tablet. The green leaf with a red vein in the middle-that’s why I said it’s hard to find that plant because it grows almost as high as a person’s knee and is mixed among the herbs. It also wouldn’t be thought of as medicine because its leaves look ordinary to the eye, but the effectiveness of the leaves is such that nothing can compare to any medicine capsule for poison.”
The general sighed. “Then how do we get such a plant?”
“Later, around midnight. I’m going out of the palace and I’m going to see if I can see that plant in the little forest I saw the other day. I hope I see it soon because if not -,” she stopped and looked to General Agustin. “His son’s ally will be gone forever.”
General Agustin blinks his eyes several times because tears appear in his eyes. “Do everything to see that plant, young lady. I don’t want to see the prince struggling because of his current situation; I consider Prince Dylan to be my son, and I don’t want to see him just want to give up because of one problem after another coming.”
She nodded and was determined to find the plant she was referring to. The king has been kind to me; she just has to repay that kindness.
” I would do anything just to see that plant, general.”
The two talked for an hour before General Agustin left the room and locked the door again. Adira began to look for black clothing, from head to toe. It’s easier to move when wearing black because it blends in with the darkness of the surroundings.
Adira stopped for a moment while looking for another face covering when she remembered the letters she found under Prince Dylan’s bed. She didn’t tell the general about that.
“Right now the cure is more important, then I’ll just do it for next time, even with the person responsible for why the king got sick.”
Adira continued the search so that there would be no problem when she had to leave.
Time passed and Adira didn’t sleep; she looked at the wall several times where the clock was hanging. She felt that time had slowed down even more.
Adira was looking at the hand of the clock, and when it stopped for a moment in the middle where there was a twelve, she had to leave immediately.
