Chapter 157
A day has passed.
The outcome of the home shopping segment was a tremendous success in terms of sales, completely sold out.
Ding-dong!
[The five viscera and six bowels are sending both teasing and cheering comments for your skills in selling medicine.]
[Heart: Hahaha, wow, LOL]
[Lungs: Huhuhu? Pffft, LOL]
[Large Intestine: This person isnt selling medications; hes completely ingratiating himself, LOL]
[Liver: Cant believe this is working, LOL]
[Stomach: But isnt promoting diet pills with an elf model false advertising?]
[Kidneys: So, do all Koreans look like Lee Jing-Jae or Won Ban and buy clothes after seeing those luxury ads? LOL]
[The five viscera and six bowels are amazed by your cunning and underhanded tactics.]
[The internal organs and bowels reluctantly grant you 100 HP.]
[Your current HP: 2,900]
Raciel smiled faintly as he listened to the internal organs and bowels chattering away in his head, and he was inwardly impressed with himself.
Phew. I never thought that diet medicine would sell out in just one night.
Was it during the peak of last nights party? It must have been when the cheeks of the young noblewomen in attendance were slightly flushed with the scent of sweet cocktails.
He felt it was the perfect moment to seize. He immediately took action. He ascended the stage, set up a table, and efficiently established a home shopping sales spot. Then he introduced it. Pulling back the curtain, he unveiled the waiting advertising model, Sylvia.
The impact was immense.
No explanation was required.
Sylvias perfectly proportioned physique, honed through extensive practice and exercise, was a manual and rationale in itself.
Thanks to this, he realized for the first time last night that the lukewarm gazes of the young noblewomen could burn so passionately.
They all queued up at the consultation table. They were busy signing pre-purchase forms. Consequently, not only the 50 noblewomen but even the knights accompanying them purchased the Vesparos Queen Bee Concentrated Diet Supplement, The Slim.
He even branded it as the First Royal Package Edition and charged them an exorbitant price!
Ive been pondering it all night. Isnt that blatantly fraudulent?
He was reminiscing about the beautiful memory of last nights flawless sale when a sharp voice pierced his eardrums.
Raciel raised his head, which he had been burying in the drawer of memories. Turning towards the source of the voice, he saw a familiar face.
What did you just say, Ms. Sold-Out Model?
A cool breeze wafted through the morning stroll garden.
Amidst such a beautiful landscape, the elf Sylvias cold demeanor transformed into the expression of someone who had encountered a cockroach in the kitchen at midnight. In other words, about a million expressions of contempt were evident in her gaze towards him.
Her face twisted as she spoke.
Last night, young human. You told me. If I couldnt afford the medical fees, I should do another job. Just stand there at the banquet, you said.
Yes, thats correct.
But I never imagined that it meant participating in such a deceitful scheme.
A scheme? My medicine sales?
Yes. If I had known beforehand that your actions involved such deception and trickery
You would have declined?
Absolutely.
She replied, enunciating her words.
So Im suspicious. You mentioned that you would generously compensate for the forest fire with a substantial sum of money. You do intend to keep that promise, right?
Of course.
Now, it was time to meet with the emperor.
Pray tell, why did you treat the marriage proposal I entrusted to you as if it were a joke?
In the expansive office, large enough to be called grand.
As soon as he entered, the first thing that struck him was the emperors angry voice. There were no words of welcome. Only the stern, fiery gaze pierced his heart.
In other words, the emperor was in full-on scolding mode. Probably because of how he had handled the marriage proposals.
Raciel inwardly smiled, remaining calm.
As expected.
He had grown quite accustomed to the emperors prickly demeanor. It used to be incredibly burdensome, but not anymore. He knew the emperors scolding wasnt genuine. He had long realized that this scolding was also a kind of test.
So it was okay. He even welcomed this scolding. If he passed this test smoothly, the pleased emperor would readily agree to any requests he made.
So please! Give me a good scolding, worthy of two!
Raciel even yearned for it. Perhaps his wish was granted. A warm barrage of the emperors reprimands rained down on him.
How unfortunate and yet pitiable. Did you truly believe I was unaware of your recent activities? I entrusted you with the marriage proposal with high hopes. I expected you to make a wise decision.
The emperors voice was tinged with irritation, but it was all part of an act to gauge his response. Raciel, knowing this, maintained his composure. Meanwhile, the scolding continued to intensify.
But what did you do? Audaciously, you treated a matter as serious as a royal marriage as a jest, attempting to pass it off to the second prince. Even last night, at the banquet, you sold a peculiar medicine to young noblewomen and knights from various countries, didnt you? Its unthinkable that you exchanged contracts right there at the banquet. Am I not correct?
Yes, Your Majesty, you are absolutely right. I have no intention whatsoever of denying Your Majestys words.
Is that so?
Yes, Your Majesty.
But why would you engage in such behavior?
Its because I do not take the royal marriage proposal lightly at all.
As if it were the most natural thing in the world.
As if he had known all along.
He answered confidently, infusing his ordinary words with conviction. The emperor furrowed his brow.
Do you truly not consider the royal marriage a jest? What do you mean by that?
Do you not already know, Your Majesty?
The emperors gaze, heavy as it fell, was met without evasion. He took it silently. Gradually, the emperors expression subtly shifted. Amazement and interest began to show in his eyes and demeanor.
Could it be?
Yes, Your Majesty. That could it be is absolutely correct.
Have you truly understood my intentions?
Yes, Your Majesty.
Of course.
Since when?
Since shortly after I received the bundle of marriage proposals from Your Majesty.
Then, can you elucidate the intentions you suspect I have?
Of course, Your Majesty.
The truth is.
He has been eagerly awaiting that question.
So now, its showtime to pass the emperors test with flying colors, earn a wealth of goodwill, and secure permission to establish the general hospital.
Seizing the opportunity, Raciels words began to dance in a captivating and persuasive manner.
