Isekai Yakkyoku - Ch. 52 - Brother's Intention

[NextOrder]

To be fair, he was indeed a researcher in pharmacology in his previous life.
But now his main occupation is pharmacist, but he also has activities of diagnosis patients and magical powers to help with these two roles.
So he kind of fulfills all three roles: researching, producing and selling medicine, diagnosing and treating patients.
He is not so much "a pharmacist" as he is an all-purpose "medical professional". "Pharmacist" is just his official title.

It does feel like a movie "scientist". You know, "the scientist" type that specializes in biology, chemistry, nuclear physics, astrophysics, etc... all at the same time in one character. But this manga is not going that far since Pharma only specializes in medicine-related fields.

He still self admitted that he relies on his diagnosis eye a lot and doesn't have the necessary skills and experience to diagnose patients confidently without it. Knowledge is one thing but you must know how to read the patient and find the tell tell signs as just getting what they said is not enough as patients can either lie or are ignorant key factors in determining the diagnosis.

Knowledge is one thing but you must know how to read the patient and find the tell tell signs as just getting what they said is not enough as patients can either lie or are ignorant key factors in determining the diagnosis.

He would have to rely on this eye even if he was a proper doctor because this society doesn't have certain technology necessary for modern diagnosis. X-Ray, scans, certain chemical tests and more. Modern medicine doesn't just rely on "reading the patient", but also on multiple ways to explore the body without intrusion. That's even what he compared the eye to when he first discovered this power.

Also, the eye doesn't do all the work. It still relies on his knowledge of ailments and symptoms. It tells him where an anomaly is and confirms his diagnosis, everything in between is his own work. Reading the symptoms, deducing the disease, choosing a cure.

In the end, the important point is not that he has magical assistance: he is out there fulfilling all those roles.

Nah. Palle is insufferable. Idk if you've got some kind of terminal disease or what but almost killing your 12 year old brother is not it. I'm out. This is just frustration concentrated into panels for me. Enjoy the story to the rest that stay.

Suspicious!
No, not in criminal way, but still suspicious.
