Chapter: 822

She said, “I thought something urgent had happened, but I didn’t expect it to be something like this… … .”

“Gretel, you showed me a drawing of a detoxifying herb before, didn’t you?”

“Oh, yes, here it is.”

Gretel took a box out of her bag. She carried a bag with a large medicine box.

She must have thought someone was sick because the Empress had called her in the middle of the night.

Inside the box are all sorts of vials, with notepads and notebooks at the top of the box.

Gretel opened a notebook and showed a simple sketch. There is a drawing of the same flower as the one she had seen before.

“Can you find this herb?”

“This is a basic detoxifying herb. The effect is different depending on the poison. I can’t say for sure how effective it will be.”

“But the poison will go away, right?”

Gretel nodded confidently. “It will.”

That’s enough.

First of all, if the poison is gone, his life is no longer in danger.

“Can you find that herb and bring it back as quickly as possible?”

“The herb was bought and kept by a lord near the Southern Mountains. At first, I wanted to buy it, but the price was too high, so I could only look at it.”

After all, it is a medicinal herb that can detoxify any poison, so it must be expensive.

“How long will it take to get there?”

“More than two weeks.”

Two weeks. Astelle sighed.

Can Kaizen survive until then?

Gretel picked up some vials from the box and put them on the table.

“May I see the emperor? Even if I can’t detox the poison, I might be able to slow down the effect for a bit.”

“Yes please.”

Even if she managed to do it, two weeks is too long. But there’s no other way right now.

Astelle said to Fritz, “Brother, send someone south right now.”
