The Failed Swordsman Who Became the Strongest After Spamming the 100 Million Years Button

Chapter 157 - Allen Cell And Political Marriage [8]



157. Allen Cell and Political Marriage [8]

It’s been an hour since Chemy-san started her research.

「Fufufu… Fufufufufu… I found it… I finally found it!」she shouted, holding up a test tube high above.

「Did you really…!?」

「Find a cure for the curse…!?」

I and Ria immediately asked.

「Yes! When I examined Allen’s cells using a variety of reagents, I found『special cells』that are not present in ordinary humans! Hmm… Let’s call it『Allen cell』for convenience sake.」

Chemy-san began to talk about her great discovery, almost jumping in joy.

「When I was convinced that『this is it!』, I immediately started verifying it. I applied Allen cells to the cursed dark red skin tissue provided by a patient. And the result was… a bullseye! The curse was dispelled in an instant!」s

She said proudly.

「And this is the new medicine I created based on Allen cells!」

She pointed to a salve placed on the desk.

「This is Prototype No.1 which contains Allen cells and an anti-inflammatory component! Let’s use this for the next patient immediately!」

「Y-You suddenly going to test it on a human body!?」

「Ahaha, don’t worry. Allen cells were completely harmless to the skin tissue. There is zero adverse effect on the human body!」she said, and turned her attention to a large number of glass slides with specimens placed on the desk.

It seems that she had already done various tests using that prototype.

「I see. Understood…」

『The Best Medicine Doctor in the World』asserted strongly, so I’m sure it’ll be alright.

「Fufu, this is the turning point of history!」Chemy-san said, and called in the next patient.

Harold Larson, 85 years old.

A man who was cursed with the『curse of exhaustion』, where a strong malaise assails the whole body around the clock.

The cause seems to be from being bitten by a monster while doing farmwork two years ago.

「Then, excuse me…」

I applied Prototype No.1 on his left leg, which was discolored dark red, with a long cotton swab.

The next moment, the dark red pattern disappeared instantly and returned to the beautiful original skin.

Judging from the appearance, the curse seems to be dispelled.

The rest is actually whether Harold-san’s body has lost its malaise.

「H-How do you feel…?」

When I asked nervously,

「Oh, this is amazing…! The languid feeling was blown away all at once!」he said, putting on a smile full of vitality.

「I see, I am glad to hear that!」

The research was successful, Prototype No.1 of Allen cells seems to have been effective against the curse.

After Harold-san left the room,

「I did it! At last, we have finally found a cure for curses! This is a super discovery that will remain in the history of mankind!」

Chemy-san raised her hands and spun around like a child.

「You did it, Chemy-san!」

「Congratulations, Chemy-san!」

「Thank you very much! Thanks to Allen-kun and Ria-san’s cooperation, medicine has taken a very big leap forward!」

As we shared our joy with each other,

「For now, let’s report to Tenshi-sama right away! If we have this, we can save a great number of lives!」

I immediately stood up and tried to rush out of Laboratory No.3.

Right then,

「W-Wait a minute!」

Chemy-san suddenly raised a loud voice.

「W-What’s wrong?」

As I stared in wonder at her sudden behaviour, she opened her mouth slowly, with a very serious expression.

「Allen-kun, I have a little… No, a very important thing to talk about…」

「W-What is it…?」

I had never seen Chemy-san put on such a serious expression before.

(J-Just what on earth does she have to talk about…?)

And a few seconds after I swallowed my spit,

「This research… Why don’t we fail it?」

Chemy-san uttered something ridiculous.

「E-Err…?」

Honestly, I didn’t know what she was saying.

The research was successful.

The human race overcame the curse.

What does it mean… to fail it?

「The pharmaceutical market is… to be frank, profitable.『Allen cells』, which has an absolute effect on curses, and a patent for a new medicine will generate a vast amount of money that will make『100 Million Gold』look like a joke!」

She continued to talk with a dark smile.

「This『Anti-Curse Treatment Research』is being carried out as a national policy of Ringuard Imperial Kingdom. If we discover Allen cells and a new medicine in this place… All of those rights will belong to Tenshi-sama. That’s the kind of contract we’re signed into.」

Chemy-san said, and took out『Written Oath Regarding Research of Anti-Curse Treatment』.

「At this rate, in spite of making the『breakthrough of the century』, we will end up with 『loose change』of a mere 100 Million Gold. If that’s the case, why don’t we fail this research? On another date, I and Allen will start another project, where I happen to discover『Allen cells』! If so, then all the rights will be mine– ahem, excuse me! It will be ours, and vast amounts of money will continue rolling in! Let’s see… How about we split it『seven to three』between me and Allen?」

(T-This bitch…!!!)

An evil that nauseates me.

A rotten opinion that only cares about her own gains and overlooks the lives of people around her.

She is not satisfied with the large reward of『100 Million Gold』and seems to be trying to wrangle more money.

Simply a mass of desire.

I can also understand why Idol and the students of White Lily Academy have utterly ran out of patience with her.

「…Chemy-san.」

「A-Allen-kun…」

「Don’t spout bullshit. I’ll report it to Tenshi-sama right away.」

For those who have suffered from curses for many years, this new medicine is hope itself.

(If Chemy-san has a patent on Allen cells…)

I’m sure she’ll raise the price of the new medicine at will and do whatever she wants for her own gains.

I must never let that happen.

「Guh… U-Understood… Certainly, Allen-kun has contributed a huge portion to this research… As expected, 70 percent was a little too greedy of me. So, how about『six-to-four』between me and Allen-kun…!?」

…Apparently this person really doesn’t understand anything at all.

「Yoshi. Shall we go to Tenshi-sama’s place, Ria?」

「Yeah!」

「Eh, w-wait a minute!? …I-I understand! Half! We’ll spit it perfectly in half!」

After that, we dragged Chemy-san, who was trying to win me over with various means, and headed to meet Tenshi-sama.
