There was no telling if Charis was attempting to console herself or her grandfather. She said softly, “Don’t give up, Grandpa. You must give it a try if there’s a chance…“I heard from Mr. Lane that Mr. Yarde is exceptionally skilled in healing than the legendary most skilled doctor in our country.”Charis’ grandfather was rendered speechless, as if he was at a loss of whether to laugh or cry. “Silly girl, more skilled than the legendary most skilled doctor in our country? Mr. Lane is really good at bluffing, huh? Sure, take him into the room and show me who he is.”Charis turned around anxiously and looked at Kayson with a hopeful gaze. She sought employment in Omnicare Drugstore immediately after graduating from university because one of her goals was to stand a chance at meeting skilled doctors there. Otherwise, she would have a brighter future working elsewhere than in a drugstore in view of her being a graduate of a top-ranked medical university in the country. Kayson was t
Charis felt her heart at her throat when she noticed that Kayson was all quiet. She was afraid that Kayson would tell her that there was nothing he could do.Mr. Gomez had already stopped being hopeful about his recovery, and that was why he did not feel any disappointment.Just as he was planning to take it upon himself to ask Kayson and give Kayson a way out, Kayson spoke. “I can treat you.”Mr. Gomez’s pupils constricted, and his body turned stiff. Charis shrieked in surprise. “F-For real, Mr. Yarde?”She almost burst out in tears of joy, and her voice was shaky. Kayson nodded. “However, the treatment has been put off for way too long. You will need some time to reach full recovery, and it will take roughly half a month.”Charis said incredulously, “Half a month is… all?”‘It will only take half a month for Grandpa to recover fully? That is something that I didn't even think about in the past!’The best result she was hoping for was for her grandfather not to be in pain a
Although Kayson’s needles were covered in icicles, Brody looked much better already.His pale face, which stemmed from the bad circulation from the cold energy that had accumulated in his body and spread over his nerves, had pinked slightly.Brody could clearly feel the cold energy's dissipation and was ecstatic and shocked.When he sustained such an injury, he lost hope for recovery. It was unexpected that God had closed all his doors but left a window open for him.After getting rid of the cold energy in Brody, Kayson told him seriously, “Grandpa Gomez, I’m going to eliminate the mind energy left in your head next.“The instant pang of pain will reach a human’s limit. Please prepare yourself mentally.”Brody gasped. “You can even wipe out that wisp of mental energy… Dr. Yarde, are you at the pre-celestial level too?”Kayson nodded, which prompted an even more surprised look from Brody. “Impressive… so impressive! I’ve only seen pre-celestial fighters so young like you in big c
“Grandpa Gomez, have a good rest first. I think you’ll be able to sleep all the way till the next day.”Brody was thrilled knowing that he could finally have a sound sleep, but he reminded, “Charis, be hospitable to Dr. Yarde!”Charis nodded profusely. “Don’t worry, Grandpa. Mr. Yarde’s our savior. I’ll treat him to the best of my ability!”It was only then Brody was assured and fell into slumber. It was apparent that the old man must have had it tough before this.Kayson and Charis closed the door after they left the room. Charis asked quickly, “Mr. Yarde, what do you like to eat? I’ll get them prepared right away! I’m an excellent cook!”Kayson did not reject having a meal there. He was not a picky eater, so he let Charis cook up whatever she wanted.Charis dashed into the kitchen and started getting busy. She was going to cook for Kayson with the best skills she had.Kayson sat on the couch and closed his eyes for a break, but his phone rang about ten minutes later. It was Na
In the hotel that Cecile was staying at…Hank kept Cecile behind him in the lobby on the first floor as he stared at the young man in front of him unkindly.The young man had a bandaged right hand as if he was badly injured, but he looked arrogant and brazen.“Tactless sc*m, how dare you poke your nose into my business? You think I’ll let you go so easily?”The young man was brazen. His tone brimmed with a domineering threat.Hank wore a grim look. The young man came from a major family in Eastsea, so he dared not act recklessly, but there was no way he would let Cecile be in danger with Kayson’s order.Cecile hid behind Hank. She was both nervous and fearful. She did not know Hank, but she guessed that Kayson must have sent him since he was protecting her.Hank spoke seriously. “You’re from Eastsea, sir, but the person behind Ms. Redcliff here is a bigshot in Skyspring. You can’t simply do what you want.”It seemed like Hank’s words provoked the young man as he raged. “What ki
After Cecile’s father passed away from the accident at the construction site, she had once lost hope for the future. It was Shyla and Kayson who helped her. Whether it was Shyla or Kayson, they were her new source of comfort.She looked at the man across from her with a resolute gaze as she asked, “You won’t keep scores if I leave with you?”The young man scrutinized Cecile. He was sure that he must have seen this face somewhere—at an important time too!“What’s your name?” the heir from Eastsea asked with a squint.“Cecile Redcliff.”“I’ve not heard of it…” the young man murmured softly before he scoffed in pomposity. “Hmph, smart of you. Come with me!”Appalled, Hank wanted to stop Cecile, but he paused and stopped moving next.“Hmph!” A snort resounded in the lobby before an icy voice spoke up loudly. “Stanley Leaf! Looks like breaking a hand of yours is a punishment too light!”The young heir from Eastsea widened his eyes in horror when he heard the voice. Snapping his head
Kayson significantly held back in the punch and had only used regular strength. If he had used Odinous Power, the punch would have killed Stanley.Stanley spat blood and glared angrily at Kayson as he snarled, “I won’t let you go! Never!”Before Kayson replied, Penta-sun Doyen, who had just parked the car, came in in large strides and growled, “Who are you not letting go? Hmm?”“This guy of course! I, Stanley Leaf, am the heir of Eastsea’s martial arts family, the Leafs. I came here, and I keep getting annoyed…”“Hah, Omar’s kid? I think you’re even more brazen than Omar Leaf, judging by your tone!”Stanley jolted and questioned sternly, “How dare you call my uncle by his full name? Who do you think you are?”He looked over to see that it was an old man, but he did not know who he was.“Who do I think I am?” Penta-sun Doyen huffed an angry laugh. Even the patriarch of the Leafs would not dare talk to him like this, yet a kid from the Leafs was acting so audaciously?Penta-sun D
Penta-sun Doyen spoke in utter seriousness. “Mr. Yarde, my choice to stay has nothing to do with whether I have Vodu Worm in me!”Kayson actually just wanted to test Penta-sun Doyen, but the man’s change in attitude surprised him. Was he scared upon learning that he had killed Adalon?He did not think much about it but turned to Cecile. The girl ran into trouble even when she was just staying at a hotel. It seemed like he ought to settle the villa as soon as he could—best if Cecile could move in the next day.Kayson asked, “Cecile, how did you bump into Stanley?”“I was planning to eat somewhere nearby, but he stopped me just as I came downstairs,” Cecile answered softly.Kayson nodded. Why did Stanley set eyes on Cecile? Was it because she was pretty? He did not know her otherwise.“I’ll take you out to eat,” Kayson said and glanced at Penta-sun Doyen. He had already told him about his intention for him to protect Cecile on their way here.Penta-sun Doyen agreed to it as well,
