16 Fifteen

Mivo's first meeting with Seph is the day he also realized that other himself there's a young boy who's knowledge is far more vast than him.

Ofcourse it was not a pleasant meeting.

The young second prince at eleven surprised the kingdom with his knowledge concerning medicine to the point that it's terrifying just like his older brother. The other kingdom seeks help and bought his pill formula for millions of golds.

And for the prince who rejected his claimed to the throne and devoted his whole youth concucting various medicine ,meeting someone who could rival his one of a kind talent is not good at all.

In the capital, the now thirteen years old prince disguised as a commoner found himself at the contest specifically for choosing an imperial doctor with no noble blood to represent the common people.

Frowning the prince continued to watch the contest which has one basic levels [ if you would ask him ] just to see that all of them has mediocre talent at most.

Pathetic. All they have to do is poisoned theirselves and produced the antidote needed to cure it.The lethal the poisoned they take and difficulty it's to cure would decide their scores. That's all.

But as espected these foolish creature who thinks studying medicine is cool at all does not understand the real meaning of it. It's not all about curing to make them alive okay!

"Examinee 1238, three various snake poison, antidote taken failed"

Heh. Just as he about to leave a boy that smells wolfsbane passed through him holding a basket of good stuffs. Picking up his nose, the prince sneer and looked at the boy who stinks death.

Though some—most failed to notice but that boy has been poisoned by that dark purple flowers. His hightened sense of smelling helps him to point it out and that boy would not live for another 15 minutes if not cured.

"Little boy you have been poisoned by monkshood. It's a deadly poison though I like to help you it would weeks to gather the materials and we are still uncertain to the antidote of Monkshood"

Recognizing the one who spoke as one of the disciple of the head imperial doctor,Mivo who's still in the crowd softly chuckled.

That man is stupid he does not even notice that the basket of that sprout holding contains the plants he needed. Sadly because even he would take rounghly ten minutes to create the antidote but the boy has only at least eight minutes to stay alive.

Wolfsbane or also known as Monkshood were usually used on spears and arrow for hunting and battle. All of the parts of that flower, especially the roots contains toxins while some known it's effect to be a heart poison it also a potent nerve poison.

There are a lot of symtoms concerning this poison from numbness, respiratory paralysis, nausea, abdominal pain and to adbnormal heart beat rythm that can lead to death.

The boy most likely has been accidentally poisoned by it.

Pity he even wanted to give a slap to that adequate imperial doctors of theirs. That boy would managed to live but—

"Five minutes"

A raspy child like voice cut off mivo's thought and made the whole place as well as the audiece watching silent.

Frigging what?

Before he managed to conclude what just happened the boy who stinks death like his older brother started to concuct the antidote in the area present.

Those little dirty hands moves scaringly fast and coordinate, there's no second glance at every grinding,plucking and testing the heat.

Boom! The pill needed was produced in just four or was it three minutes?

"Hahaha! Boy do you think it's easy to create a pill just like your candy?"

The imperial doctor mocked and stiffled a laugh that was followed by some of audiece who has a little bit of knowledge concerning medicines but the boy remain silent and calm.

On the other hand while Mivo's trying to calm his palpitating nerves he suddenly felt a chill which run through his system and cursed his brother— that cold stares were coming from the boy meters away from him.

The boy intentionally lowered his palm revealing a candy shape white pill seconds enough for Mivo to see and smell before he brough it to his mouth eating it.

And by just that the smell of death's lingering to that sprout immediately banished.

Great! The Supreme Ruler could take his brother now!

Failing to hide the smile and delight in his face the Second Prince let a laugh that gather the attention of everyone including the imperial doctors present.

Immediately the color in their face turned pale as they murmured.

"His highness second prince"

Not bothering how those idiots recognized him and the suprise looks of everyone Mivo started to make his way to the center of the contest place with a smirk plastered on the skin mask he's using only to stop hovering the interesting creature he discovered.

Still smirking the respectable thirteen years old second prince of the largest and strongest kingdom in the continent casually said to another boy of his age.

"You are mine"
