Chapter 93: What [3]
Translator: None Editor: One Mountain Guy
“Eo?”
The same shriek was made by others simultaneously.
Gwanghae was flying in the sky.
Not voluntarily but by outer force.
‘Why is he doing so bad?’
Ganghyuk thought to withdraw his kick he had made unknowingly.
Ganghyuk slowed down his attack, but Gwanghae had a hard time evading his attacks.
He could not manage to evade Ganghyuk’s kicks and tried to defend it with his hand. Then he could not bear the pain in his wrist and was thrown to the other corner.
‘Euk, what did I do?’
Ganghyuk ran to him feeling cold sweat on his back.
“Your Highness!”
The eunuch and his fellows ran to Gwanghae.
Dolseok’s face was as pale as paper. He might fall.
He murmured the same word.
“Death sentence…”
Makbong hit his head.
“Don’t say such awful things! Go away.”
“Ah, mother, we might be seeing each other soon…”
“Are you crazy?”
Everyone except Dolseok came to Gwanghae.
All of them looked anxious.
“Your Highness!”
The eunuch who was grounding inkstone was the first one to come to Gwanhae except for Ganghyuk.
It seemed he had strong loyalty.
All of the other people nearby had the same anxious look on their faces.
“Is Your Highness okay?”
The most anxious one was Ganghyuk.
He was the one who made Gwanghae lie on the floor.
‘Is he going to be like that for a while?’
He remembered every bad thing he learned from history class.
When he was young, he thought Gwanghae was a crazy man. How could he kill his half-brother and confine his step-mother?
“Eum.”
Gwanghae frowned because of the pain or the unpleasantness of it all and got up.
He massaged his wrist constantly.
“Are you okay? I am so sorry, Your Highness.”
Ganghyuk murmured without seeing his eyes.
However, he did not say the cliché ‘Pardon me all to hell.’
He was afraid he would really go to hell if he said that.
“Eum.”
Gwanghae got up.
He got up brusquely but he seemed to be in pain.
“Okay, okay.”
He showed a cool attitude, so Ganghyuk was a bit relieved.
Ganghyuk felt that he would not kill him anyway.
“I would like to see your wrist.”
“Okay.”
Gwanghae had an indifferent face while looking at his wrist.
Ganghyuk examined the affected part.
In a bruise, the most serious thing would was a fracture.
‘Fortunately, there is no sign of fracture.’
Now that he thought about it, he did not kick that strong.
It was something like ‘pushing’ rather than ‘kicking’.
If it was Yeoni, she might dodge, and if it was Makbong, he might counterattack. Even Dolseok could defend himself without difficulties.
‘It is swollen…”
Anti-inflammatory medicine would work.
He gave steroid in full in the morning, so it would make the swelling subside.
The effect would last quite long.
“Fortunately, you did not have to suffer huge damage.”
“Yes, don’t make a fuss. I fell because I missed my step while retreating.”
“Yes, right.”
Ganghyuk agreed to Gwanghae carefully.
Gwanghae smiled out of embarrassment and tapped Ganghyuk’s shoulder.
“I have sparred with many martial arts experts. However, experts like you are rare. You are good at medicine and good in martial arts, too. You are incredible.”
Ganghyuk almost snorted with laughter.
Rare?
‘If I am a rare expert, Makbong and Yeoni would be the top of the world.’
It was nonsense, but the speaker was a prince.
If one had power, one could insist that a horse was a deer.
In this situation, Gwanghae was the one who held greater power.
Ganghyuk bent his head.
“Thank you.”
“No, not at all. Go and take a rest. You must be very tired. I will draw some more paintings since I don’t have problems with my wrist anymore.”
Gwanghae let them go as he was ashamed of the kick he received earlier.
Ganghyuk was not very comfortable in the palace, so he followed his order quickly.
“Yes, your highness, but please remember to not use your hand too much.”
“Okay. I understand.”
Ganghyuk came out of the palace after bidding farewell to Gwanghae.
Dolseok was relieved for a long time after leaving the palace.
“Hugh, now I am relieved. When you kicked the prince…”
“I did not kick with all my might. I made a slow kick.”
“You kicked slowly and yet the prince was still thrown away?”
“Yes, I kicked slowly.”
Ganghyuk looked wrongfully accused.
Makbong rebuked.
“Sir, I told you. You are an expert in Taekyeon.”
“Expert? No, you and Yeoni are experts.”
“Don’t compare yourself with us. The prince had good movement, but he was no match against you.”
“Good movement? Then how could he not dodge my attack?”
Yeoni shook her head.
“I can dodge it, but normal people cannot dodge your attack. You are gigantic. Ordinary people might not be able to move because they are overwhelmed by your body.”
“Really?”
The last was Yeoju.
She was close to the ordinary man in terms of Taekyeon, so he could trust her evaluation.
“They are right. Do you remember you have beaten all the fellows from Daedonggye?”
“Ah, yes.”
“Therefore, you must be very careful. You were lucky this time. If the prince was injured, it could be a serious problem for us.”
“Okay, okay.”
Ganghyuk shook his head in irritation.
Soon, he was worried about Gwanghae.
He looked back. It was the direction where the palace was located.
‘He must be fine…’
It was fortunate that there were no people who chased them.
Ganghyuk was worried for some time, and he packed things to prepare for a runaway.
However, a letter came, and it comforted Ganghyuk.
It was delivered by the eunuch.
“Baik Ganghyuk, come out and receive this letter.”
The male voice before the puberty was not very pleasant to hear.
He came out thinking of ‘Castrato’ he had learned when he was a medical student.
There should be some protocol, but he did not know it. He bent his head.
“Yes.”
The eunuch looked at Ganghyuk with an embarrassed look, because Ganghyuk stood bending his head only.
Of course, the eunuch might be lower than Ganghyuk in the status.
Even though he was in public, this did not change his origin.
The eunuch brought a letter from the prince.
Ganghyuk must treat him like the prince.
However, the eunuch remembered how Ganghyuk treated Gwanghae.
He was reminded of the Gwanghae’s request.
‘He is not good with our etiquette. Don’t force him to follow the etiquette of the palace.’
The eunuch suppressed his feeling and read the letter.
To summarize the letter, it could read as follows:
“I am very well. Thank you for your treatment. I would like to paint as I do not feel pain anymore. Here is my gift to you. I painted this today. Please keep it in remembrance of me.”
Ganghyuk received the painting Gwanghae sent.
‘It is me.”
Gwanghae drew the sparring in his painting.
It was very similar to the actual scene, but there was a significant difference.
In the painting, Ganghyuk was on the ground and Gwanghae kicked him off.
‘He might be very ashamed of what happened.’
Ganghyuk smiled thinking of Gwanghae smiling innocently.
The eunuch became relaxed after reading the letter.
He returned to his original position, as he finished delivering the Prince’s letter.
“His Highness asked you to hang it on the wall.”
Ganghyuk laughed.
He painted Ganghyuk as a man lying on the floor, beaten by a boy, and asked him to hang it on the wall.
It was funny.
Ganghyuk couldn’t stop his laughter.
“I see. I will hang it.”
“Yes.”
“Is His Highness feeling well?”
“Yes, he looks good today. He started to exercise. I am afraid if he’s exercising too much though.”
It was good to hear Gwanghae was recovering, but it was not a good thing if he was trying to use his hands too much.
“Please stop him as much as you can.”
“He does not listen to me.”
“Tell him the doctor said so.”
“Yes.”
He left soon.
He did not leave any good impression on Ganghyuk.
He thought he could believe only one thing that came from the eunuch.
It was that Gwanghae did not listen to him.
It was confirmed by the letter that Gwanghae sent a few days later.
“It seems I used my wrist too much and I am feeling pain again. Could you come and examine it?”
Ganghyuk sighed.
The eunuch could not see Ganghyuk’s eyes.
He felt very sorry because he could not keep his instruction.
“How long has he been sick?”
He could not answer because he did not listen to him.
He was ashamed and blamed himself.
Therefore, Ganghyuk had to ask once more.
“How long was His Highness been sick?”
The Eunuch sweated.
“Ah…Eu…Heo Jun visited his highness two to three times.”
“How long?”
“About five days?”
“Why did he send a man this late?”
He looked at the palace unknowingly.
He could not see the palace from Ganghyuk’s place as it was quite far.
“It seems his highness felt ashamed of not following your orders, so he postponed the idea of letting you know.”
“But Dr. Heo can tell me.”
“His Highness asked him not to do that.”
“Heo. But now he asked you to come to me…”
“Yes.”
It seemed he tried to endure as much as possible.
However, the pain was too strong to endure, and only then did he sent the eunuch.
That means he had severe pain.
‘It has been only 10 days since he had a steroid shot. It seems he used his wrist too much.’
Ganghyuk looked at the man from the palace.
He bent his body because of the heaviness of the mood.
There was no reason that he must be sorry, but the eunuch was at a loss.
“Did he erase the painting again?”
Ganghyuk’s voice was changed.
However, he did not notice it.
“Yes.”
“I have told him not to do that.”
“I am sorry.”
Ganghyuk did not acknowledge his apology, but he pondered.
‘I think I must have an operation. How can I do that?’
As far as he remembered, it was not a difficult operation, but it was not in his field.
It was the operation an orthopedic surgeon did.
‘I have to untie the parts which are tied, but the problem is he seems to use his wrist constantly.’
To remove the pain itself was not difficult, but considering his life as a king, it was not enough.
He looked like an immature boy, but he would fight with the Japanese bandits some years later.
If he could not use his wrist, that would be a problem.
‘It might be a big operation…But I have a method.
Ganghyuk devised a new operational method in his mind.
It would take years for others to think of such an operation.
It might be the same as Ganghyuk in his world.
However, in this world had many improvised operations, and he could think of the method in a second.
“Em. I think I need to use a scalpel. Does he feel comfortable with the scalpel?”
“Yes, he said he could accept anything.”
“He might feel strong pain. I see. I will go there with my tools.”
