Doctor, you said this medicine will help?

Well, this is an experimental prescription of mine, so I can't say for certain, I'm afraid.

[Sighs.]

Very well. I'm... really glad I was able to contribute as much as I could. My death is now impending, after almost 20 painful years.

I've heard! You've done a lot for people. You didn't waste a single second. That commitment deserves huge praise.

Before you fully abandon to fate, will you please take my treatment? It could end up curing you, allowing you to continue your contributions as a result.

[He lifts the bowl closer to his mouth, and then looks at the doctor.]

If this fails, then know this. It doesn't matter what happens from here on out. I've already done everything I could to benefit others.

[Breathes out.]

For that, I'm grateful. At this stage, I'm ready for the disease to claim my existence, if it does succeed, knowing I made my life count.

I won't ever hate you for failing. You tried your best. That's what matters here.

Thanks for the words.

My pleasure, Doctor Daigaku. Okay, I'll take it.

[Does so.]
