I Became the Wife of the Monstrous Crown Prince - Chapter 160: Into the light we dream of

Chapter 160: Into the light we dream of

“He’s different. He’s much more capable than before.”

After falling into the river, Richard was able to use the magic of light.

Although he needed a mana stone of light to use magic because he did not have a mana in his body, he easily used the magic of light that disappeared a thousand years ago.

The Crown Prince and the Crown Princess may not know as much magic as Richard.

Karan was hurt while helping Richard escape, which he also easily cured.

“Do you really think so?”

“Are you jealous that Richard is better than you?”

“I’m not jealous!”

Connin burst into a rage. He always trusted and relied on Karan.

Although he is better at magic, her brain and personality is better than him.

Recently, however, she seemed to be a person whose only goal was to be recognized by Richard.

“Karan, are you all right?”

“What?”

“You’re not such a person!”

“What did I do?”

“You gave tancinol to Shulia! The other children are infected too!”

Richard ordered them to spread the disease and use items from Kensway mansion.

Connin hesitated, but Karan immediately followed orders.

Moreover, she didn’t seem to feel any guilt after doing such a thing.

“It needs to be done.”

“Do you still think this is for the Roum now? The whole world is criticizing the Roums!”

“Sacrifice is bound to follow for the cause.”

Karan said the same thing as Richard. But it wasn’t her idea, she only repeated Richard’s words.

Connin shouted in frustration at her.

“Shulia’s dying! And that’s because of us! Is it even right anymore?”

“That…!

Karan couldn’t reply.

That night, Richard told Karan.

For making Shulia suffer from tancinol, her brother, Kaluo, may be brought here.

Karan went to the Camellia orphanage, feeling grateful for Richard, who even cared about her brother.

However, Kaluo noticed her giving Phillip’s gift to Shulia.

Kaluo asked what it was, but Karan hurriedly left the orphanage with her brother without explaining much.

Camellia orphanage will soon be covered with death.

However, even after returning here, Kaluo was constantly worried about Shulia and asked her when she would be brought here.

Karan felt a great sense of guilt every time he asked her.

She couldn’t answer Connin and only bit her lips, but Kaluo’s voice was heard from behind.

“What do you mean by that?”

Karan and Connin looked back in astonishment.

Kaluo shouted at those two.

“I can’t believe Shulia’s dying! What the hell is that supposed to mean?”

***

Tancinol occurred simultaneously throughout the capital.

My prediction that he would aim for the imperial family was wrong.

However, I need to do something.

I made a magic tool that can check if someone got tancinol.

It was a slightly modified version of the mana measuring tool used by the mages or the academy.

Of course, it was not 100% perfect, so me and Blake had to check ourselves, but the accuracy was quite high.

I taught Blake how to distinguish tancinol, and he quickly learned it without any difficulty.

The church also used tools made of mana stone of light to prevent illness, which I modified to fit tancinol and make the servants tending tancinol patients to use them.

“How are you today, Sir Collin?”

“I’m fine.”

Unlike what he said, Collin didn’t look fine at all. He was getting thinner day by day.

We have found a way to detect patients with tancinol and prevent the disease, but we have yet to find the

treatment.

First of all, the only treatment we could do is to slow down the spread of tancinol in the body as much as possible, but it did not mean that the disease did not spread.

Collin’s condition has also gotten worse, losing consciousness due to a high fever and even bleeding yesterday.

I promised my father that I would definitely cure Collin’s illness, but I was surprised as it got worse.

It was heartbreaking to see him getting worse day by day.

“Your Highness, can you do me a favor?”

“Yes, do say it.”

“Please deliver this to His Majesty.”

What he handed over was a letter envelope.

“Okay, I’ll send it to the palace right now.”

This place is a training center for the Imperial Knights, located on the outskirts of the capital.

Originally, it was used for regular training and joint practice by imperial knights, but it is now a place of isolation for patients with tancinol.

Me and Blake were the only ones who could identify patients with tancinol and treat the disease by slowing the spread of the disease.

Therefore, the patients had to be treated in one place.

Although this is a remote place in the capital, it was convenient to contact the palace because there was a shortcut to the palace as it was a training center for imperial knights.

He shook his head as I tried to get the letter from Collin.

“You can’t do it right now.”

“Then when?”

“When I die, hand him that.”

He spoke calmly, but my face became pale.

It wasn’t a normal letter, it was a will.

I returned the letter to Collin right away.

“I’ll give it back to you. It’s a letter that won’t be delivered to father anyway.”

“Your Highness, I think I’m…”

“Don’t think like that. Sir Collin will surely get better. I’ll definitely find a cure, so don’t worry and get some rest.”

I laid Collin down and covered him with a blanket.

I felt heavy leaving his room.

No matter how much the disease slowed down, Collin’s condition was serious like the first day.

I had to find a cure somehow.

I’m looking for a way to solve the twisted mana of light, but I haven’t had any significant clue yet.

Tancinol was not an ordinary disease but magic.

In order to break the spell, I had to find the rules he had set.

The tancinol can be eliminated only by figuring out the set of rules specified by Phillip at once without making a mistake.

There is also a way to send the mana of light to the core of tancinol so that their body can overcome it by itself, but tancinol had the nature of exploding the twisted mana in the body when a mana of light came in from the outside.

This was also what Phillip had designed. It was designed to turn tancinol into an incurable disease.

‘If we could somehow inject the mana of light into the body, we could fix the tancinol…’

However, both methods were difficult to do.

As expected, catching Richard was the easiest way.

If we catch him, he’ll know how to cure the disease, and we’ll be able to stop the spreading.

However, he disappeared.

“I can’t be in other places, so throw the Roums out right away!”

I was in agony when I heard a strong protest from the other side. I was startled and ran over there.

“What’s going on?”

I appeared, and the knights bowed all at once.

“Marquis Valon brought us here because he suspected us of tancinol…”

The knights spoke carefully.

Most of the knights were nobles, but the Marquis of Valon is a relative of Tenstheon, who was now fifth in the line of succession to the throne, so they had to be wary.

Since he was only in his mid-20s, he was practically more likely to succeed to the throne.

Of course, it doesn’t mean anything when Blake is alive.

He was more likely to be targeted by Richard, so I told him to be careful.

Richard is the main culprit of everything. I don’t want to blame the patient, so I gave him tools to prevent tancinol.

When the knights handed over the tools to prevent tancinol, he criticized the shape and reacted sourly.

Now, I couldn’t see any of the tools on him.

It was specially made for prevention, but it’ll be useless if it was not worn properly.

“Your Highness, I can’t be in the same place as the lowly Roums even for a moment!”

Marquis Valon raised his voice rather than reflecting on his actions.

All patients with tancinol were quarantined here regardless of their status.

This was a rule established after the outbreak happened, but Marquis of Valon was always fiercely protesting.

He wasn’t unusual. These kind of complaints come in every day.

Not only the nobles but also commoners, because they didn’t want to be with the Roums.

“Your Excellency, we’re using different buildings based on status and gender, so don’t worry.”

Another knight tried to soothe the Marquis, but he didn’t change his expression.

“I can’t believe you’re treating the Roums who caused the tancinol! I don’t even want to get in unless I get rid of them all!”

“Then get lost.”

We looked back at the source of the cold voice.

Blake was walking this way.

“Your Highness, what are you saying? I gave you an option for the sake of the Empire.”

Marquis Valon expressed his thoughts, but Blake did not listen and ordered the knights.

“You don’t want to be treated. Hey, put him with Marquis Hamel in the warehouse right now.

“Yes, Your Highness.”

The knights bowed their heads and followed his orders.

“Let go! Your Highness, you can’t treat me like this because of the Roums!”

The Marquis of Valon protested, but Blake ignored it and ordered other knights.

“In the future, punish those who disobey orders regardless of their status and those fail to comply with regulations related to tancinol.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

Blake took my hand.

“You don’t have to treat them. I’ll take care of it, so don’t worry.”

The patients have been struggling every day, but the situation has not improved.

In addition, problems continued to occur inside the training center.

Incidents were happening every day, including those who protested that they didn’t want to be in the same space as the Roums, those who insisted on staying at home, and those who ignored my words and used the mana stone of light at will.

It was hard to tolerate it even if they are a patient.

“Okay, I’ll leave it to you.”

I nodded. Back then, he was a little boy I had to protect. But now he has a strong will more than anyone else.
