Sadly, his life came to an end, when his car is collided with other car, whose driver was drunk, the accident cause the famous doctor to lose his life. But next moment he was stunned to discovered himself to be reborn in Japan of late Meiji era, he wasn't sure whether he time travelled, or this parallel earth, but he assumed himself to be a transmigrator, just in case if this a different earth.

The doctor, now Tsukishima Saito found it funny that the things that only happen in anime and manga, happened to him in real life, nevertheless, he accepted his fate and decided to start anew in his current life.

Saito after reaching the age of 6 was diagnosed with blood cancer and him not being able to live past 20, his clan, escpecially his (current) parents were shocked and mourned at a child barely 6 is suffering from a dangerous disease.

Saito, however, wasn't sad, he took his cancer as a challenge, in past life because of his accident he was unable to complete his invention, the cure for cancer, he will do that in this life.

Back in present, Saito now a full-fledged doctor despite him being 15 years old, decided to synthesis the cure, in past life he did research with chemical compounds and microorganisms to find a cure for cancer, but in this life he skipped both modern compounds and microbes, thanks to rare herb he found and harvested.

It was blue spider lily, it is famous as a mythical flowers that in past, during heian era is used to make various magical elixirs, including ones that can grant immortality.

Of course, Saito is not superstitious, to him, the flower is unusual, rare but natural herb with medicinal effects, in fact many who found and harvested it, produced highly effective cure for various diseases, including the illness that required expensive treatments.

Saito using the herbs brewed four serums, compound alpha (red coloured), compound beta (blue coloured), compound gamma (green coloured) and compound delta (violet coloured).

He starts with compound alpha to weaken the cancerous cells, then compound beta to exterminate the cancerous cells, then compund gamma to repair the damage caused to body by cancer, and finally the compound delta to restore the body's health and restore natural lifespan.

Next week, the symptoms of cancer vanished as if it was never there, his body is now healthy and he can finally live past 20.

Ha! Ha! Ha! I did it! I literally did it, the cancer is gone and my body is finally normal.

Saito looking at his blood sample under microscope felt sense of accomplishment, he looked at the leftover blue spider lilies and smirked.

These flowers are really miraculous, I mean the medicinal effects of these flowers are undeniable, just process these flowers and you get highly effective medicines, making the expensive treatment unnecessary.

Saito recalls about his past life where there were flowers similar to blue spider lilies, the red spider lilies which are also used in medicines but they are not miraculous like blue spider lilies.

*Sigh* If only these flowers exist in my past life, I would have developed the cure for cancer sooner, perhaps the I could have created and relesed the cure before meeting my end in that freaking accident. Well, nevermind, the life I once had is gone now, I will very much live my current life peacefully.

Saito decided to tell his family about his feat and successful self-treatment.
