Her Graceful War Song novel Chapter 1293

Robert was supposed to stay the night, as he was worried that Rafael's condition might worsen. But by the time it was about nine at night, Sebastian returned. Without a word, he immediately administered a Snowdrop Pill.

After taking the pill, Rafael claimed that the pain in his chest had lessened. Robert took his pulse and, sure enough, the improvement was remarkable. The Snowdrop Pill worked better than the medicine he had prescribed.

Though a skilled physician himself, Robert had heard much about Sebastian's renowned expertise. Now that Sebastian was here, there was no need for Robert to stay the night. Carissa saw how exhausted he was after two days of treatment. So, she kindly gave him a token of gratitude and had someone escort him back to his residence.

Once Robert left, Sebastian prepared another prescription, instructing someone to head to Arcane Sanctum to fetch the necessary ingredients and brew the medicine. After taking the new concoction, Rafael felt as if the heavy weight pressing on his chest had been lifted, leaving him much more at ease.

"Mr. Lester will probably come by again tomorrow. So, you'll need to wait until tomorrow evening to leave the capital," said Sebastian.

Carissa's brow furrowed with concern. "But if Mr. Lester comes tomorrow to check Raf's pulse, won't that expose everything?"

"We'll have someone watch the door," Sebastian replied. "If he comes, I'll just give His Highness another dose…"

"Another dose?" Carissa's eyes widened in alarm. "He can't take any more!"

Sebastian gave her a sidelong glance. "If you were so worried, you shouldn't have had him take the half pill in the first place."

Seeing the regret in Carissa's eyes, Sebastian explained, "I'm not talking about giving him another half pill. What we'll give him is a Frostbane Pill. It's a cold-acting medicine, specifically for treating extreme heat in the body. After taking it, we'll have him circulate his inner force. His pulse will still be chaotic, but it won't appear as alarming."

Carissa nodded, then asked, "But the previous pill has already affected his heart. Won't circulating his energy after taking the Frostbane Pill clash with the effects and weaken his constitution?"

"It's not a problem. There are plenty of other pills to help stabilize his body," Sebastian reassured her.

Travis, who had been listening nearby, couldn't help but speak up, "If we had used the Frostbane Pill from the start, His Highness wouldn't have suffered from that chest pain for two days."
