Jackpot.

It was mind-blowing. Truly mind-blowing. Raciel swallowed hard, his eyes fixed on the message window. He had no choice but to believe it.

So youre saying that the herbal decoctions I create will have a 10% increase in efficacy? 10 percent?

Some might consider it a small increase, a mere 10%. It could appear as a slight improvement in effectiveness.

But it was far from that.

Absolutely far from it.

Anyone aware of the immense investment and research modern pharmaceutical companies dedicate to achieving even a 1% increase in drug efficacy would understand the monumental significance of a 10% boost.

And there was something even more astonishing.

I can determine the medicinal effects, side effects, and even the toxicity of the decoctions components?

The skill of decoction-making was an unexpected gift, and this aspect seemed to be its core essence.

To be honest, when I added the cold crystal to the Galgeuntang decoction I had no idea what medicinal effects it would have.

So, what happened after making it?

He had planned to experiment, to try it himself. He intended to store the ice Galgeuntang decoction in the circle slot and gradually release small amounts into his body to avoid overwhelming it.

That way, he believed he could comprehend the effects, side effects, and precautions of the ice Galgeuntang decoction through self-trial.

But even if I had tried it, I wouldnt have fully understood its effects. Mrs. Dinraier doesnt have much time left. So, the time I would have had to test the efficacy would be no more than a few days.

Developing a new drug required an enormous investment and effort. However, the subsequent clinical trials were equally daunting.

Because its a drug people will consume. It absolutely cannot have any negative effects.

The same applied to decoctions. People may not realize it, but various decoctions also undergo numerous clinical trials and component analyses.

Raciel would have done the same this time.

He would have found out, even if he had to use his own body as a test subject. But now, he no longer needed to, thanks to the decoction-making skill.

Nevertheless, Raciel suppressed his excitement. It wasnt the time to revel in joy yet. It wasnt the time to feel relieved either.

Lets test it first.

But how does one conduct a component test? Surprisingly, the answer was simple. By merely gazing at the container filled with ice Galgeuntang decoction, a reaction occurred.

Ding dong!

[Your self-made decoction has been detected.]

[Would you like to activate the Component Analysis option of the Decoction Making Skill?]

[YES / NO]

Naturally, the answer was yes. Raciel nodded, and the component analysis option was activated.

[The Component Analysis option of the Decoction Making Skill is now activated.]

[Scanning]

[3 2 1]

[Scan completed.]

Ding dong!

A clear and pleasant sound resonated throughout the world. Immediately after, details about the ice Galgeuntang decoction appeared.

[Ice Galgeuntang Decoction]

Fortunately, Mrs. Dinraier consumed all the Ice Galgeuntang without spilling a drop. As he watched her fall asleep again, Raciel prayed.

Please let the medicine work. May the effects identified in the component analysis be 100% effective. He prayed, waited, and observed. And then it began. Raciels intense battle commenced.

Take 200ml per dose, three times a day after meals.

He strictly adhered to the recommended usage and dosage.

He prepared the Ice Galgeuntang for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. After preparing each batch, he always conducted a component analysis. Only after the test was completed did he administer the medicine to Mrs. Dinraier.

But that wasnt all. He also had to manage the newly opened Star Palace Oriental Medicine Clinic. During the day, he had to attend to the patients who came in. He couldnt afford to take any of them lightly.

I might collapse before anything else.

His body was still in a weakened state. With such a condition, he treated the general patients and provided special care to Mrs. Dinraier. Running around all day felt like running a marathon that quickly drained his energy. He was on the verge of collapsing.

But he persevered.

When he felt drowsy, Kozumi would prick his thigh with a brown spine. When he felt dizzy, he would supplement with sugar from candies. When he wanted to give up, he motivated himself.

Someday, I will reap the rewards of my hard work!

He was determined to live a life filled with joy. He vowed to live a life of luxury and success. With that resolution in mind, he fought tirelessly. His actions began to stir quiet emotions in the hearts of the Star Palace members.

Was our Crown Prince always like this?

Everyone wondered.

Crown Prince Raciel Adria Magentano. What kind of person was he? When he was bedridden due to his illness, there was no one more sensitive than him. It made it hard for the people around him to even breathe properly. But now? He seemed like an entirely different person.

Even when he brought the gladiators, even when he cared for the child with seizures he was never this devoted to helping others.

Our Crown Prince, who tirelessly cared for patients day and night. Our Crown Prince, who personally prepared medicinal decoctions, enduring fatigue and hardship. Our Crown Prince, who stayed up all night to watch over the patients.

Your Highness! You mustnt push yourself too hard!

Gardin, unable to bear it any longer, exclaimed. But the Crown Prince silently shook his head.

No, its something I must do.

That was his only response. He continued to take care of the patients quietly, as if it were a natural part of his duties. The people of Star Palace became increasingly amazed by his actions.

This must be genuine.

It must be sincere.

Admirable.

The head steward of Star Palace.

The servants and maids.

The royal guards.

All felt a heartwarming emotion that couldnt be expressed in words. They sent their applause to Raciels dedication. In their hearts, they praised his noble actions.

Of course, they didnt know. They didnt know that deep in Raciels heart, there was not an ounce of service, dedication, or compassion. His only motivation was the promise of wealth and glory! A life of luxury in the royal court!

Days passed amidst everyones slight misunderstandings and admiration. Two days, three days, five days, ten days And finally, the fruits of his labor appeared.

Ding-dong!

In the early hours of the morning, withthe waning moon hanging in the window frame, Raciel was dozing off next to Mrs. Dinraier. An alert jolted him awake from his light sleep.

Hmm?

Raciel opened his eyes, roused from his doze. And soon, he saw it.

[You have successfully treated the patient: Mrs. Dinraier, who was suffering from Typhus Fever, by administering Ice Galgeuntang and providing dedicated nursing care. She has overcome the severe fever and will regain her health safely with appropriate rest.]

[In this process, your exemplary devotion and service, putting the patient first, have been witnessed by all. They send you their heartfelt respect, applause, and praise.]

[The Praise Bonus effect is added to the treatment reward.]

[The effect of the Medical Billing (Lv.2) skill is applied 1.5 times.]

Finally, the bud of the fruit was blooming right before his eyes.
