84 Talks About the White Death (1/2)

Marquis Castel, ” What do you mean about the cure is not enough to cure my daughter of the white death!?”

Rogen, ” The white death can't be cured that easily.”

Marquis Castel spoke with an enraged voice, ” What! So you are saying, that the cure you showed us is just for show. I can't believe I trusted the cure you showed me, I tried everything to get my hands on it, I even defied General Argus just to get my hands on that fake cure. I can't believe that you made me taint the pride I have with the faction of the second prince and Argus.

Rogen answered calmly even in the front of the angry Marquis, ” Marquis did I say that the medicine for your daughter was fake. I also obviously did not tell you to support the prince, Eric In exchange, for the medicine.”

Marquis Castel tried to calm himself, after hearing Rogen. But he was still full of rage after hearing Rogen about the medicine being ineffective to his daughter.

Rogen then spoke after seeing the Marquis calmed down, ”I will tell you, Marquis Castel, why the medicine for your daughter might be ineffective.”

”You see Marquis Castel, the white death or known in our country, as tuberculosis, can't be cured easily with medicine. If your daughter is truly bedridden for a year then the microorganisms in her body might have some immunity to the medicine. So the medicine, might not be effective because of the microorganisms are already widespread in her lungs and immune to the medicine. The medicine is effective if you just have been infected with the white death, but you still have to take it with a certain pattern and amount. If you are infected with white death for a long time, then you will have to take many different types of medicines depending on the infection.”

”I'm also telling you that the medicine might be ineffective because of the lack of expertise in tuberculosis, here in this continent. The medicine might just even kill your daughter if handled wrongly.”

”But the microorganisms causing the white death can be cured, by bringing her to our kingdom. There she could be checked out by our medical personnel, she even has a higher chance of getting well there. The doctors there would even give her different types of medicine for her condition. She is even checked 24/7 by the medical personnel to ensure her recovery. ”

”So Marquis what will you do after knowing that the medicine cannot cure your daughter, but bringing her to our country could. ”

Marquis Castel thought for a few seconds, before answering.

”What if I don't allow my daughter to be brought to Dariel.”

Rogen, ” That is your choice Marquis Castel, but I am sure that you can't see your daughter suffer. If you don't do anything about her, she will be suffering from the pain of white death. She might not die easily but her death will be slow and painful for her, the last remaining years of her life will be just in bed looking at the windows of her room, as her only eyes of the world. She will even bear a grudge against you, you who had the chance to save her and denied the chance to heal her because of your pride.

Marquis Castel was sweating and started to imagine what if the things Rogen spoke about the white death will happen, where his daughter will slowly die, even he had been given a chance to heal her in exchange for him to lower his beliefs and pride.

Marquis Castel, ” I hope that there are no more surprises in this one, I am hoping that you are not using this to get me on your side, and changed my political beliefs. ”

Rogen, ” Do not worry Marquis Castel there is no politics involved in this one, except for one thing we want your full support for the kingdom of Sirius and Dariel's alliance. The other one is to trade us with products that your land has to offer to us. If you agree on those then we will bring your daughter to Dariel for her full medication.”

Marquis Castel, ” Deal! But I want to know when will my daughter be sent to your country.”

Rogen, ” She will be sent to the kingdom of Dariel when the alliance has been formed.”

Marquis Castel, ”Are you kidding me!? You are saying that I can't send my daughter to your country if the alliance isn't formed. We don't even know when will that be formed, it might take months or years I can't wait that long to send my daughter there.”

Rogen, ”Well, you can do something about it, Marquis Castel. You can make the process of this alliance faster if you want to save your daughter's life as fast as possible.”

Marquis Castel was about to say something to Rogen but kept it to himself. Rogen looked at Marquis Castel, Rogen immediately showed a smile after seeing the Marquis having a hard time deciding.
