The Eccentric Doctor of the Moon Flower Kingdom Vol. 09
FATHER KNOWS BEST?
The jig is up for Koyou! Back in the bustling capital after her triumph in Rihou, the young doctor faces her greatest adversary yet: her father, Noah. Upset that his daughter has broken her promise to not perform medical procedures on her own, Noah is determined to drag Koyou back home to Orchid no matter what. Not even her new clinic nor the patients she’s saved are enough to sway him! Will an emergency surgery to save a collapsed lung be what finally persuades Koyou’s father to let her stay? Or will she have to abandon both her new life in Karyou and her search for muscle paradise?
Series Overview: In the faraway lands of the Moon Flower Kingdom, people have long relied on healing methods shrouded in superstition with dubious results. When the young Prince Keiun goes in search of more reliable remedies, his party is attacked by mysterious assailants, and he ends up witnessing a never-before-seen lifesaving procedure that shocks him to the core. Even more surprising, the one who performs this medical feat is a beautiful, yet slightly odd, teenage girl named Koyou! Just who is this girl, and why is the prince being targeted by assassins?
