“Will my daughter still survive this after getting the treatment from this?” Donald Bourne was not sure of agreeing to his wife's choice so he wanted to confirm.

He was only going to let him touch his daughter because his wife had told him that he was the best doctor in their city. The person he wanted it to be was Alex.

“I cannot say till we all see it but be rest assured that since I am here, your daughter cannot pass away,” Alex assured him, “But there is a condition, you will have to get me the White Snake Flower.”

“I will get you anything you want as long as you save my daughter’s life. If you want hundreds of them, I’m willing to give you.”

Alex laughed knowing that Donald doesn’t know how rare the White snake flower is.  It’s impossible to find one, not to speak of ten.

Dr Norton scoffed in his mind, “He dare ask for that rare herb? Such a thief. I will make sure he doesn’t get it.”

He brought out the cure he had prepared for Bella. He filled the syringe with some liquid. He was full of himself that it would work. He was determined to prove Alex wrong.

He dared to call such sickness a minor thing. He wasn't surprised because he is just an ordinary doctor. 

David Norton could not deny that Alex’s aura was strong and he was almost convinced that the girl really had hypersomnia.

He didn’t agree to

Donald and Anna were in a corner of the room as they were frightened about what their daughter's fate was going to be.

He was annoyed that Alex was acting like he was some sort of savior, of his, he injected the cure into Bella’s body.

“Tch Tch.” Alex clicked his teeth, “I was expecting a better approach to this but you have only worsened the young girl’s life. I didn’t think much of your skills at first but now I have realized that I may have overrated your skills.”

“She will be in great danger in the next few seconds.” Alex wanted but Dr Norton got angry instead of watching out.

“I am the most skilled doctor in Mericania, I have stayed at the top in the ranking of the orthodox doctor. How could I possibly mix such a thing up?” he demanded angrily, " You think i am a fool right? Nothing is going to happen to her in….”

Before he could complete this statement The life monitor started beeping loudly, Bella’s heart rate had dropped and her breathing had hardened. Hot sweat broke on Dr Nortotn as he wondered what went wrong. He was so shocked that he could not move away from the spot he was standing in.

He has been so sure that she would be fine right after he gave her the injection.

Anna Bourne fell on her knees and held onto Alex’s legs, “Please save my daughter. I am sorry for doubting your words earlier. I do not want her to die. She is my only daughter.”

Her husband joined her in begging, “I never for once doubted your skills, Divine doctor. I just wanted my wife to see that you were not wrong. I will be sure to get the herb that  you requested..”

“Of Course, I will help you, Mr Bourne, I have given you my approval earlier.”

A huge smirk was on his face and he picked up his little pouch that contained some needles, in a swift of an eye the room became static as the ten needles flew toward Bella’s special acupuncture spot.

“What? That is the Static strike, a special skill that can be possessed by divine doctors. If a normal orthodox doctor tried to use this method, it could have adverse effects. It takes years for them to master. Mr Bourne was not wrong after all. He is truly the Divine doctor.

Bella’s heart rate and breathing became stable,  Alex moved close to her, he carefully took out the needles and wiped the blood that came out of the spot. “Come and take a look at her.” Alex said.

Donald and Anna rushed to their daughter’ side, her Vitals were back and she had opened her eyes. 

They were overjoyed and they fell on their knees.

“Thank you so much, Divine Doctor.” We will never forget what you have done for our family.”

“Many doctors had told us to lose up on her but you had just woken her up with just opening her eyes after a long time. Only the heavens can tell how grateful I am for this that you have done for me and my family. I will never forget you and your sister that introduced you to me.”

“The treatment has not ended for her, you still need to get a few herbs for her.” Alex wrote down the names on a paper plus their prescriptions and handed it to Donald, “She only needs to take this  for three days and will be completely fine.”

“I will be sure to follow your instructions,” Donald., said.

Dr Norton who seems to just recover from the shock of ever also knelt down in front of Alex, “I am sorry for doubting your skills, Divine Doctor. Please ignore my rude remarks earlier. Please take me in as your apprentice.”

Many students found it difficult to handle needles and master the supreme techniques. His master had told him that the reason why he had been able to grasp the skill at once was because he was talented.Dr Noton was rooting for a positive response from Alex in the future.

Take a look at his clothes and the car? Their qualities do not match each other. He only rented the car to show off and pretend like he is rich so he can deceive people.”“He is not the owner of the car. I know him so well. His family business had been stolen by his relative status a long time ago so he has no money to his name.” “Shhh, Molly.

    The line went silent as David Norton did not know how best he would explain to Thea about what had transpired between him and Alex.“Give me an answer. We both know that my grandfather doesn’t have much time. I need to find this man as fast as I can. No matter what it takes.” Thea said she could barely mask her desperation any more.“I met this young man at the Bourne’s mansion when I was about to treat their daughter. We had a little conflict so I wasn’t able to get his contact or even get his personal information.” He said in a small voice.Thea immediately understood what Dr Norton said. She understood that the top orthodox doctor in Mericania would not believe that there was someone better than him.“Thank you, Dr David. I will try to contact the Bournes about it.”Though the doctor was young, he was able to treat the Bourne’s young daughter that Norton wasn’t able to heal. It is possible that he will be able to heal her grandfather too. Now that her hopes were high, she was goi

You only just got here and we haven't had a drink yet.”“Ah, I am going to the XY bank, I have something to sort out over there.”Alex had to go to the medicine market to buy some ingredients to prepare the antidote he was going to make for Lord Thor Walton’s treatment. So he wants to go and cash out some money from the golden card that Liya had given him.“That is good, Molly has some matters to tend to for the company at the XY bank, the both of you can go there together.” Uncle Miller suggested.That caused him to be more and more frustrated, the more he was trying to stay away from her, the closer he was getting to her.Molly on the other hand was mad about her father’s decision but she knew better than to go against her father's wishes.She had a mischievous grin on her face while she drove both of them to the bank, “Alex, do you know what kind of people use the XY bank?”“The top one pe

    The doorman's little scream got the ears of the others and they heard that someone had come with the golden card, they were shocked to hear that someone that was in the bank had that in their possession. Even Molly was stunned on hearing that.The golden card was only meant for someone in the XY bank, it means no two people can possess such a card. The one with the most money in the bank is the only one who gets the golden card. It was rumored that no one except the bank manager knows the true amount that is laying in that account.Some rumor also had it that the money cannot be spent finish, even if they spent more than ten million dollars everyday.The total amount in the account was two times the total amount of what everyone else that had an account in the XY bank.It was suspring that Alex is in possession of such a card, it was more than surprising to see someone have it.

This man came here with an expired golden card and he is trying to act like he has an active card here even after the face recognition machine gave him off. I was just about to call the cops when you came.”He added the last sentence with a sense of pride in him.Uthman’s face turned stone cold, “You must be out of your mind, you idiot. gHow did our procedures skip your mind? Anyone who walks in with the special designated cards must be brought up for verification. How dare you attempt to confirm the authenticity of the most important customer in this bank!”The doorm

    The confusion on his face quickly cleared but he wasn’t expecting that the War god, Lord Thea, would have found out about the Divine doctor, it was already surprising that someone of her caliber was asking him for help.He wondered how she had found out that Alex had healed his daughter because his circle was pretty tight and his wife did not have a close relationship with the war god or anyone that could be her friend.“It seems like you're still confused as to why I asked you to come here even when I have told you what I want from you.” Thea said as she flicked her lighter open and lit her cigar stick.“Lord Thea, I am only astonished that the news of a young man healing my daughter has reached for your ears. This young man is actually the divine healer so I have not told anyone about him yet.”(A/N: Lord Thea because she is a war god which is usually a masualine position and she chose not to adopt the title, Lady Thea.)Donald then remembered that Dr Norton was also present with t

    Alex watched Thea’s chest rise and fall as she struggled to hold her stance. Her arms were tight against her sides, her breathing shallow, impatient. She wasn’t used to standing still. Her body screamed for motion, for action, but Alex gave no command to strike.He circled her slowly, hands folded behind his back, observing every muscle twitch with a detached calm that made Thea grind her teeth."Focus on the breath," Alex said."I'm focused enough," Thea snapped."Then you wouldn’t be shifting your weight like a drunk soldier," he said without raising his voice.Her nostrils flared. She straightened, forcing her heels to root into the ground as he had instructed earlier, but her mind raced ahead to the sparring she expected. She wasn't here to meditate. She was a fighter, not a monk."Again," Alex said.Thea closed her eyes and tried to inhale as slowly as he had demonstrated: steady, filling her lungs from the diaphragm, not the chest. It felt unnatural. It felt wrong. She could be

  • Chapter 157 - Breathing exercise

    The floor of the dojo creaked softly beneath their feet as Thea followed Alex into the training space. The dim amber light of morning filtered through the paper-paneled windows, casting long rectangles of golden warmth across the tatami mats. Incense from an earlier offering still lingered faintly, curling in wisps near the rafters.Alex walked calmly to the center of the room and turned to face her. His expression was unreadable, calm but not cold. There was a certain serenity about him in this space, as if the dojo answered to him more than the other way around.Thea, however, stood with arms crossed, one booted foot tapping with restless irritation."We start with breathing," Alex said, voice low but firm. "Three rounds. Inhale, hold, exhale. Center your energy."Thea rolled her eyes. "I didn’t come here to chant and do yoga, Alex. Let’s get to the part where I wipe the floor with you."He ignored the jab. "Your core isn’t balanced. Your last two battles showed that. You lead with

    The mist clung low to the earth like a forgotten veil, drifting in wisps between the slender trunks of the ancient trees that stood as silent sentinels around General Earlton’s secluded estate. Dawn had only begun to breathe over the horizon, and the sky wore a faded palette of violet and gray, cut through with the slow awakening of golden light.The gravel crunched under Thea Walton’s boots as she walked up the winding path to the main house, shoulders stiff beneath her military jacket. She had always been punctual, but today, she had made sure to be early out of both habit and curiosity. General Earlton had summoned her with strict orders to report before sunrise. No details. No explanation. Just come.As the main house came into view, Thea slowed her pace. The silhouette of a man stood at the edge of the porch, hands in his pockets, posture relaxed like he’d been waiting for a while.Alex Cole.He was wearing a simple black long-sleeved shirt rolled at the forearms, paired with l

  • Chapter 155 - Earlton's request

    The sun had slipped below the treetops, casting long, bronze shadows across the quiet estate of . The air smelled faintly of herbs and polished wood, earthy and grounding. A modest dinner table had been set outside under the arbor, where fireflies blinked lazily and cicadas hummed through the dense hush of forest twilight.Alex sat opposite General Earlton and her granddaughter, Sisi. The meal was simple: steamed greens, rice, and a fragrant stew that hinted of ginseng and lotus. Sisi chatted comfortably, teasing both her grandmother and Alex in equal measure. Alex offered quiet responses, trying not to seem too detached.After the final bites were taken, Sisi collected the plates. “I’ll wash up,” she said with a smile. “You two obviously have serious grown-up things to talk about.”Earlton gave a small nod of thanks, then turned to Alex as her granddaughter disappeared inside.“You didn’t come to Trim City for politics or fame,” she said without preamble. Her voice was calm, but its

    The dojo smelled of incense and aged wood. The light inside was dim, shaded by hanging scrolls and translucent paper windows that bathed everything in a warm, amber glow. Hannah stood awkwardly at the center of the floor, her boots planted firmly on the polished surface, but her confidence wavering slightly under the penetrating gaze of the woman in front of her.General Earlton was not what she expected. The stories had painted her as an ancient recluse, a sorceress buried beneath layers of wisdom and mystery. But the woman seated cross-legged on the meditation mat was sharp-eyed and formidable. Her silver hair was pulled tightly into a braid that hung over her shoulder, and she wore a sleeveless black gi, revealing powerful, weathered arms inscribed with ancient martial runes. A golden snake-shaped cuff rested on her left bicep a relic from her final campaign during the War of the Red Valley.Hannah swallowed hard. She had stood before war generals, court officials, and high-ranki

  • Chapter 153 - General Earlton

    The Walton family SUV pulled into a secluded private estate hidden deep within the outskirts of Trim City. Unlike the extravagant displays of wealth that dominated the city, gold-plated gates, surveillance drones, fountains carved from pure crystal, this compound was modest, covered by the whisper of forest trees and protected by a mist that never lifted entirely. The air was heavy with a calm, almost otherworldly pressure, like the land itself was ancient and sentient.Thea stepped out of the car with a stern expression. She wore her full black War God uniform an armored coat lined with silver embroidery and a long red scarf that fluttered with the wind. Her short hair was tied up neatly, and her commanding aura had not diminished despite the casualness of the visit.Behind her, Hannah, her ever-loyal assistant, followed while inspecting the area with sharp, curious eyes. Dressed in a more modern military style, Hannah was the perfect contrast to Thea blunt, emotional, and unapolog

    Alex leaned against the polished marble counter of the upscale lounge, watching the bartender pour a neat whiskey into his glass. The air was thick with low chatter, soft jazz humming through the speakers, and the flicker of candlelight bouncing off wine glasses. It was the kind of place he usually reserved for business meetings or quiet nights of reflection, but tonight had a different energy. Tonight was about celebrating.He looked up just in time to spot Sean walking in, a confident smile stretched across his face. The two locked eyes, and Alex grinned, raising his glass slightly in greeting.“You look like a man with good news,” Alex said as Sean approached.Sean chuckled and took the seat beside him. “Better than good, man. I got the job.”“No way!” Alex set his drink down and clapped Sean on the back, genuinely thrilled. “You got it?”“Assistant manager,” Sean said, pride and disbelief mingling in his voice. “Can you imagine? Me?”“Hell yes, I can imagine,” Alex replied, signal

  • Chapter 151 - Conditions

    Miller wasn’t truly concerned whether Alex succeeded in getting him the board position or not. In fact, deep down, he hoped Alex failed. That way, it would provide him the perfect excuse to sever all ties with him completely. He didn’t want to be tethered directly or indirectly to Carl Moretti. The mafia’s shadow was already long and dark over Trim City, and Miller had narrowly survived too many storms to let himself get dragged into another one. His reputation was hanging by a thread, and he knew better than to let it fray.So when Alex had pleaded for a second chance, Miller hadn’t outright said no but his agreement had come with a heavy undertone of reluctance. It was strategic, not sentimental. If Alex pulled through, fine. If he didn’t, it would be the final nail, and Miller would be done with him.With that tension still hovering in the air, Alex returned to Tina’s office that afternoon. Not for business this time, but for their date the second of ten they had both agreed t

    As soon as Miller walked out of Tina Snow’s office, Alex rushed after him.“Uncle Miller!” he called out to him.Miller stopped in his tracks and turned to face him. He was still visibly pissed.“I’m sorry about what happened the other day. Uncle, I know no excuse would be enough. After all, it was my fault for not checking in before going to your house,” Alex apologized sincerely.Miller sniffed. He already knew the truth that his wife had framed Alex but he wasn’t about to tell him that. He didn’t want to lose face in front of the boy.He squared his shoulders. The resentment inside him simmered down a little as he remembered all that he had lost his ties with Raymond Bourne, and the respect he once commanded.He was highly happy that Bourne had met up with him, besides he had also pictured the opportunities that would flock around him because of his relationship with Ray.But instead, it caused him more harm than anyone could envision but somehow he was able to vindicate himself.
