"Oh my, isn't this the Great Witch Priscilla? I never would've thought that you would also be caught."
Prisoner 3340, Melusine, was brought to the infirmary. With her hands crossed, she looked at Priscilla, who was lying weakly on the bed, with great interest.
Priscilla glanced at her with a bewildered expression but didn't respond.
"Do you know her?" Aiden asked Melusine.
"It's impossible not to know her. Just like that woman in Room 12 who uses demons as servants, she's also a big shot in the Witch Assembly," Melusine shrugged. "What happened to her? Why does she look so pathetic?"
"It seems she swallowed something strange that got stuck in her digestive tract and can't be expelled. Can you do anything to treat her?" Aiden straightforwardly asked.
"She swallowed a foreign object? Just because of that?" Melusine looked surprised. "Can't she handle it herself?"
"She has amnesia now and is practically useless," Aiden replied simply.
"Amnesia... What happened?"
"This is not something you should be concerned about right now," Aiden interrupted Melusine incessant questioning with a stern face. "Anyway, she started vomiting blood after ingesting something unknown. I came to ask if you have any way to treat her. If you can cure her, I can consider it as your merit."
When the prison doctor mentioned the need for surgery, Aiden realized the seriousness of the situation.
The surgical level in this world had only just advanced to the point of knowing the importance of blood type for transfusions. The surgical instruments Aiden had seen in his memory didn't look much different from torture devices. The idea of using advanced techniques like endoscopy to remove foreign objects was simply absurd, and undergoing major surgery to see if one could survive was akin to gambling.
Instead of considering the option of sending Priscilla to an external hospital for a risky operation and leaving it up to fate, it would be better to first try their luck with a witch who possessed such knowledge.
Melusine was able to develop a demonic contract that granted people the power to manipulate their bodies and concocted a fake death potion that even Aiden's past world couldn't create. Her expertise had far surpassed the medical standards of this era.
In Aiden's eyes, prisoners were also talents that could be utilized, and the forbidden knowledge possessed by witches held extraordinary value.
"Oh dear, I feel like you're starting to treat me as your family doctor," Melusine chuckled.
"I'm asking you..." Aiden stared at Melusine with an intimidating presence, reminding her.
"I'll answer whatever you ask. Yes, I can treat her!" Melusine raised her hands in a cooperative manner.
"Then let's examine her quickly," Aiden gestured towards Priscilla on the bed.
"No need. I only need to know the cause of the illness. To be honest, my treatment plan may be a bit... unconventional. It might involve some forbidden materials, so I need the Warden's approval," Melusine said mysteriously.
"Explain it clearly"
"I plan to prepare a special potion for her to inject, which will partially transform her body into a demonic beast," Melusine began explaining her treatment plan.
"Transformation into a demonic beast?".
Melusine nodded. "Yes, by temporarily transforming her into a snake-like demonic beast, she can expel the object herself. The digestive tract of snake-like creatures has a strong stretching ability, allowing them to swallow and digest prey several times larger than their own head. They can even regurgitate undigested bones from their mouths."
"This plan sounds somewhat horrifying. Are there any risks?" Aiden inquired.
"While I can't guarantee absolute safety, I can assure you of a reasonable success rate," Melusine confidently replied. "Of course, that is if you are willing to entrust her to me."
Aiden stared at her for a moment before asking, "What materials do you need?"
"I will make a list. Some materials may not be available for purchase, but I know where to obtain them," Melusine said slowly. "If everything goes well, we should be able to gather everything by evening."
"Then please hurry. She doesn't seem like she can hold on for much longer," Aiden urged Melusine to make haste.
"It's alright, no need to worry. I can prepare some other medicine for her as a temporary solution"
Aiden nodded silently and gestured towards the dispensary, indicating for her to go and prepare the medicine.
After Melusine left, Aiden used his gaze to signal the prison doctor to follow and assist her, while also keeping an eye on the medicine Melusine prepared.
Then, Aiden glanced at Priscilla lying on the bed.
"What did you swallow exactly? Are you really not aware?" Aiden asked her.
In fact, the prison doctor had already asked her this question, but according to the doctor, Priscilla didn't give any response.
Priscilla looked puzzled as she heard the question, gazing at Aiden, then shook her head weakly and whispered, "I don't know."
It seemed like she truly didn't know...
In other words, she swallowed it before losing her memory?
It was impossible for an object that could scratch the throat and cause bleeding in the gastrointestinal tract to be easily swallowed.
In other words, it was highly likely that Priscilla intentionally swallowed the object, rather than it being an accident.
Aiden had encountered many stubborn prisoners who would ingest contraband or hide it in their rear end to evade searches. Therefore, he felt it was crucial to determine the nature of this foreign object.
After a while, Melusine and the doctor emerged from the dispensary. Melusine handed a prescription to Aiden. "These are the materials. Collect them according to the channels mentioned here," she said. free webnov el.com
Aiden quickly glanced over the list and indeed saw several materials that were not readily available on the market. However, Melusine had noted where they could be obtained, mostly in the black market of the old district area.
Aiden passed the prescription to Franda and instructed her to take care of it.
The prison doctor held a silver syringe, ready to administer the hemostatic medicine prepared by Melusine. Currently, it was inconvenient for Priscilla to drink water, so oral medication would not be practical.
Just as the needle approached Priscilla, she resisted with widened eyes and exclaimed, "No, don't!"
The sharp needle clearly triggered her sense of danger.
"It's okay, it's okay!" The prison doctor tried to comfort her while grabbing her wrist, but Priscilla still resisted, trying to break free.
"Don't move, we're trying to save you," Aiden spoke to Priscilla.
He said this casually, not expecting Priscilla, who seemed to have no memory of medical procedures, to understand.
However, to his surprise, after Priscilla stared at him blankly for a moment, she inexplicably became obedient, relaxing her arm.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the prison doctor began to administer the injection.
Seeing this scene, Aiden couldn't help but be somewhat surprised.
This person actually listens quite well...
