18 King Klein’s Treatment Arc
19-27 Surgery
November 12th, in Alban, the capital of the Klein Kingdom…
Three patients were brought into the royal castle.
“Miss Elsa, please.”
Elsa was called shortly after breakfast.
“Understood.”
This time, Jin would be accompanying her so that the Mini Smith would assist her in the surgeries. No one objected to that.
Jin, Elsa, Reiko, and Edgar followed the knight down the corridor.
It seemed that Princess Lieschen wouldn’t be going with them this time around.
The knight escorted Jin and the others outside the royal castle.
“…The patients are… outside?”
The knight answered Elsa’s question.
“Yes. After all, the patients are commoners, so rather than inside the royal castle, we housed them in the healing room of the soldier’s quarters.”
“I… I see…”
That kind of treatment was something inevitable in this world. Though she had received Jin’s knowledge, she didn’t say anything back to the knight. Still, Jin could see that she was a little disappointed.
The soldier’s quarters were on the outskirts of the royal castle’s courtyard. At the end of that was the building with the healing room.
“Here we are.”
A soldier standing in front of the healing room saw the knight and opened the door.
“Oh, Miss Elsa, Lord Jin, thank you for coming all the way here.”
The chancellor was already waiting there.
Standing next to him was a healer who seemed to be the one in charge of this healing room. There was no one else, only Jin’s party, the chancellor, the healer, the knight who had escorted them here, and the patients.
There were five beds in the room. The patients were lying in three of them.
The Covert Units who protect Jin waited outside the building, and worked together to cover the entire building with a “Magic Barrier”.
This would help prevent any magical interference or attacks. This measure was the result of a consultation between Jin and Laojun.
The Magic Barrier doesn’t prevent physical interference. People and air can come and go through it as they please, so it was very unlikely that anyone would notice this kind of barrier was set up in the first place.
And inside the building, Jin used a “Solid Barrier” to cover Elsa, the patients, and himself.
Elsa trusted that Jin would take such measures so that she would be able to devote herself fully to her medical examinations.
“Y-you’re a healer, right?”
“D-doctor, can you cure me?”
“…The pain…”
Jin could see that all three of them were suffering from jaundice, since their skin had turned yellow. On the other hand, Elsa asked Edgar to help her and started her detailed examinations.
20 minutes later, the results are out.
“These two people have the same symptoms as His Majesty. And this person has liver cirrhosis, which I believe to be due to alcohol intake.”
After hearing the explanation, the seemingly confused chancellor arrived at a decision.
“Hmph, I don’t really understand what you mean by liver ‘Sir Roses’ but those two over there have the same disease as His Majesty, right? Then, let’s get them treated.”
“Understood.”
Hearing this, the patient who was diagnosed with liver cirrhosis spoke up in a miserable tone of voice.
“D-Doctor, what about me? Will you not heal me…?”
But Elsa smiled at the patient.
“…Don’t worry. You’ll be the last one, but I’ll heal you.”
Hearing those words, the patient closed his eyes in relief.
“…Okay, let’s get started”
As a substitute for a sterile room, Jin used “Sterilization” within the area protected by the “Solid Barrier”.
At the same time, the first patient’s skin was also disinfected.
“Schmerzmittel’ ‘Paralyze’.”
The “Schmerzmittel” and “Paralyze” spells were used as substitutes for anesthesia.
Once the patient lost consciousness, it was Jin and the Mini Smith’s turn. Of course, the Mini Smith had already been sterilized properly.
“…Brother Jin, please.”
“Yeah, leave it to me.”
By forwarding the visual information obtained by Edgar – who was looking at the patient in fluoroscopy mode – to the Mini Smith, the latter could see the affected bile duct, and quickly located the parasite that was there.
“Mini Smith, at zero, remove the parasite.”
“UNDERSTOOD.”
“You ready, Elsa? …Okay, let’s go. Three, two, one, zero!”
The Mini Smith plunged its slender body and arms into the patient’s abdomen. Blood spurts out, but since the wound itself is small, the amount of bleeding is not a big deal.
And in less than two seconds, the Mini Smith succeeded in dragging the parasite out of the patient’s bile duct.
“Elsa!”
“‘Heilung’, ‘Heilung’.”
Elsa cast intermediate surgical magic twice. Since the damage done to the body itself was small, it could be considered appropriate in this case. “V?llig Geneseng” would have been excessive here.
“’Diagnose’.”
Lastly, she examined the first patient’s condition.
“…The parasite is gone. The procedure was a success.”
“Good.”
Since the first patient is still paralyzed, Jin and Elsa decide to proceed with the surgery on the second patient.
The procedure was performed in the exact same way as for the first patient, and of course, it was successful as well..
But when Elsa tried to treat the third patient…
“Miss Elsa, you can leave this one alone.”
She was interrupted by the healer in charge of this healing room.
“Even if you can cure this commoner, he won’t make a penny. I have already confirmed your ability.”
The first time he opened his mouth, he said something unbecoming of a healer.
“No, if there is a patient in front of me, it is my duty as a healer to heal them.”
Elsa turns her back on the rude healer and turns to face the third patient.
“Miss Elsa!”
He tried to reach out to Elsa in order to drag her away from the third patient, but since Jin had set up his “Solid Barrier”, he couldn’t get close to her.
“Tsk…”
“Bodemann, stop it. Leave this to Miss Elsa.”
“…Yes.”
Persuaded by the chancellor, the healer named Bodemann withdrew regretfully.
Chancellor Powell wasn’t particularly interested in getting the commoners treated. He just wanted to see Elsa’s ability from a different side.
“…Liver cirrhosis. 70% of the liver is useless.”
This is the result of Elsa’s diagnosis.
“Ascites… We have to make it recede. ‘Heilverfahren’.”
The idea was to reduce the patient’s ascites by improving the functions of the internal organs, suppressing the water leaking from the capillaries, and activating absorption.
“It’s bad to leave a dead liver as is. ’Decomposition’.”
That spell was originally used to decompose garbage into atoms, but it is also effective for dead cells. Once decomposed into carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, and other trace elements, they can no longer do any harm to living organisms.
This treatment was necessary because cirrhosis can develop into liver cancer if left untreated.
“Now we have to discharge this. ‘Add’, ‘Add’.”
This spell also was not used with its original purpose in mind, but it’s still an effective method to solve this problem. With this, the resulting carbon and oxygen were loosely combined to form carbon dioxide, while the oxygen and hydrogen were converted to water.
This would make it easier to remove them from the body.
A portion of them was absorbed through the blood vessels and released into the atmosphere through the lungs. Another portion was absorbed by the intestinal tract. Since carbon dioxide is dangerous when it merges with blood in large amounts, this was converted slowly and in very small amounts.
As a result, the swollen abdomen gradually collapses. At the same time, the protruding capillaries also shrunk.
“Ohh……”
Both Chancellor Powell and Bodemann, who were watching the situation, were completely amazed. A girl who is not even 20 years old was doing what no healer could do.
“’Genesung’.”
Including the first two patients, who had just woken up from their paralysis, Elsa cast the highest level of Healing Magic on all three of them.
Then, Edgar held her from falling after she understandably stumbled and almost fell due to fatigue.
“Are you okay?”
Jin took a small bottle of Hourai Island’s special Pelshika juice out of his pocket and handed it over to Elsa.
“Thank you, Brother Jin…”
Short of breath, Elsa drank the juice in one go, and then let out a sigh of relief.
