Doctor Player

#While I was thinking about how to do episode 145 of Dr. Player,

Elmude spoke to me.

“My lord, a guest has come.”

“customer?”

“It’s a twin boy and a girl… … They say they are the children of the Marquis of Dulac.”

“… … !”

Raymond jumped up from his seat.

“Tell them to come in right away. hurry!”

“all right!”

Soon, boys and girls with similar doll-like appearance entered the room.

About 15 years old? It looked like that, but both of them were amazing young and beautiful girls.

“Meet Baron Pennin, the light of the great Houston kingdom. We call it Ren Rune.”

“Okay, sit down. Are you the sons and daughters of the Marquis of Dulac?”

“Yes, it is.”

Raymond was puzzled.

Where have you been until now?

As if realizing that question, the girl Rune spoke with an expressionless face.

“We were held hostage in the mansion of Archduke Berard. When the baron recaptured the capital, he managed to escape through the chaos.”

“As a pawn? Then, what about the Marquis of Dulac?”

Raymond's eyes widened.

“Your father had no choice but to cooperate with Archduke Berard in order to save us.”

‘There was such a situation as expected!'

Raymond put on a big happy expression.

Now that the children who were hostages were secured, the Marquis of Durac had no reason to stand on Berard's side anymore.

“Tell this news to the Marquis of Dulac right away… … !”

“It will be useless.”

“huh?”

The twins said with emotionless faces.

“We were poisoned by Archduke Berard and became unable to live without the medicine he provided.”

“… … !”

“Therefore, it is clear that my father will continue to obey Archduke Berard in order to prolong our lives.”

Raymond only then learned the whole story.

‘The child that Berard will kill.'

To poison your children and threaten them with drugs.

He was truly a devil.

Then the twins acted unexpectedly.

He knelt down in front of Raymond.

“So I dare to ask the baron! Take our lives!”

“… … what?”

Raymond's face hardened.

“As long as we disappear, my father will no longer cooperate with the demon Berard. Please grant us an honorable death using the Baron's medicine!”

At the solemn request of the young twins, the hall fell into a heavy silence.

* * *

“What nonsense is that… … .”

Raymond shook his head in embarrassment.

want to kill It is a request that will never be granted.

But the boy, Ren, raised his red eyes and looked directly at Raymond.

“This is a problem that will not be solved unless we die.”

The twins spoke in turn.

“I heard that the baron uses a mysterious ancient secret technique. Please use that secret art to kill us painlessly.”

“Without Archduke Berard's medicine, it's hard to live long anyway. Father, please take our lives before we commit more grievous sins.”

“is it so. So please kill me without pain.”

Raymond shook his head.

“stop! I want you to kill me! What nonsense!”

“Why doesn’t it make sense?”

The twins tilted their doll-like faces. “We can save many people by dying. Aren't deaths worthy enough?”

“you're right. The Baron is a great hero. Please think of a cause.”

Raymond was speechless for a moment.

Of course, the twins may not have been completely wrong.

If those two die, the Marquis of Durac will no longer follow the Archduke of Berard, and great damage will be prevented.

But it was a story that could never be followed.

‘Anyway, this isn't it. To conciliate the Marquis of Dulac and let his children die.'

“Never. It's a request I can't grant.”

The girl Rune said in a subdued voice.

“Then I can't help it. We have no choice but to kill ourselves. Let's go, Ren.”

“Okay, sister.”

“If you find our bodies, please tell my father right away.”

The two turned their backs and tried to leave the room.

Raymond exclaimed in despair.

“Wait a minute! What nonsense!”

The twins stood tall and stopped.

“It can't be helped.”

“… … .”

“My father gave up everything after we were poisoned. Loyalty to the royal family, fame, and dreams. everything.”

The twins bit their lips.

Rune's voice trembled as he opened his mouth.

“We don't want to die either. But there is no other way to save my father. If we don't die, my father will never escape from the hands of Grand Duke Berard.”

Raymond then realized what he was thinking wrong.

The twins did not take their lives lightly.

I'm afraid of dying and I hate it.

He was about to give up his life for the sake of his father.

‘Ha, what a fool.'

Raymond sighed.

Considering my father, it was the worst choice.

The Marquis of Durac, who killed her children with her own hands, will live in hell forever.

‘I just need to solve the problem so that no one becomes unhappy.'

Raymond was determined.

I will solve the problem so that no one is unhappy.

‘Such a good father and children. I never want to make you unhappy.'

Raymond had no one to call his father.

Of course there was Oden, but he wasn't the ‘father'. It was worse than nothing.

So when I saw a family that cared for each other like that, I was so envious and wanted to make them happy.

He wanted to present to those children the happiness between father and child that he had never felt in his entire life.

“I’m sorry for coming so suddenly and causing trouble.”

“I will stop.”

As the twins tried to leave, Raymond grabbed them.

“Wait a minute.”

“Are you going to kill us?”

“No, never.”

“But why?”

Raymond asked.

“Why do you have to die?”

“That’s it… … .”

“You can cure your poison. So that you don't need Berard's medicine.”

Yes, if poison is the problem, it can be treated.

However, the twins did not even mention such a method in the first place. seems impossible.

Indeed, they answered this.

“I have already been treated by many healers. No matter which top healers I went to, they all shook their heads. It is a poison that can never be cured.”

But Raymond shook his head.

“That's a normal healer's story. I am different.”

“yes?”

“Because the healing technique I use is not a simple heal, but an ancient secret medicine technique.”

Raymond said in a strong tone.

“I will definitely heal your body. So don't ever say that you're going to die again.”

As I said earlier, Raymond did not want to bring terrible misfortune to this loving family.

So I will definitely treat you.

So, seeing those cheeky twins laughing heartily, the Marquis of Dulac said,

‘... … I'll claim the best gourd reward.'

Marira receives a very expensive reward for keeping her family happy.

‘Considering all the hardships you've put me through so far, I'll give you the best overcharge!'

Raymond examined the twins' bodies with such firm determination.

* * *

“What exactly did you poison yourself with?”

“I don’t know exactly. Poison must have been mixed in the drinks we drank when we were about 10 years old.”

“10 years old?”

“Yes, five years ago. Since then, we have become unable to live without the medicine provided by Archduke Berard.”

The twins answered alternately.

Raymond was puzzled.

Most venom is single-shot.

It was either four months after taking it, or it was recovered, or one of the two. Poisons that remain in the body for such a long time and continue their effect are very rare.

Anyway, I decided to narrow down the suspected poison one by one.

By the way, Raymond's Herbology rank is S!

Any amount of poison was penetrating.

“At the time, what symptoms did you have after taking the poison?”

“I don't remember exactly. All I remember was that I had a high fever and was very sick. According to my father at the time, we were both unconscious and in a coma.”

“And did you get better after taking the medicine that Grand Duke Berard gave you?”

The twins nodded.

“What kind of symptoms do you get if you don’t take the medicine?”

“I feel extremely tired. And as time passes, dizziness gets worse, I can’t stand the cold, and my limbs start to lose strength.”

“I had endured without taking medicine before, but the symptoms got worse and worse, and I had a high fever, and I fell into a coma and was on the brink of death. After I was forced to take the medicine, I soon recovered.”

The twins trembled as if they were afraid to even imagine.

“Even now, some time has passed since I took the medicine, and the symptoms are coming. It is a terrible poison.”

Raymond agreed.

If what the twins said was true, it was a terrible poison.

‘How is it that it remains in the body for so long and is toxic?'

Raymond wondered.

Of course, poison was not without long-lasting poison.

But it's 5 years.

To be able to show terrible symptoms for so long just because you took poison once.

‘If it's such a terrible poison, there's no way I wouldn't know? I've never heard of it.'

Raymond tilted his head.

‘But it's a symptom I've heard a lot. Severe fatigue, unable to bear the cold, losing strength... … .'

In an instant, a diagnosis came to mind.

‘Hypothyroidism?'

It is literally a disease in which the function of the thyroid gland is lost, and the symptoms are similar to those of twins.

‘no way? Did he take a drug that destroys the thyroid gland?'

Raymond recalled a quarrelsome family.

‘If you take a large amount of iodine as poison, the current symptoms can be fully explained!'

Iodine has the property of destroying the thyroid gland.

Therefore, in large doses, thyroid function may be lost. Or maybe they used some method to enhance toxicity.

‘Then, is the medicine that Archduke Berard provided is thyroid hormone that supplements thyroid function?'

It was a very probable guess.

The thyroid gland is an essential organ for maintaining life, so when it loses its function, it needs to be supplemented with hormones.

‘If you have hypothyroidism, everything fits. But how did Archduke Berard obtain such biological knowledge?'

Raymond wondered.

The knowledge he had just recalled was not easily accessible.

Knowledge of medicine that not only ordinary people but also healers do not know.

‘This is deep knowledge that even the top alchemists of the Mage Tower specializing in biological research wouldn't know, so how did you use it as poison?'

Looking back, it wasn't just this time.

The Pastin Plague that first spread to Houston Kingdom.

And the potassium concentrate that brought the Marquis of Langham to the brink of death.

From the mercury incident in Elmud's estate to the malaria that infected the young king.

Archduke Berard has used various diseases as mean means.

‘Something's strange. To use such a method, you must have a deep knowledge of healing, but does Archduke Berard have such knowledge?'
