Giving Drew one long look like as if trying to read what was going on in his mind, Loveth collected the jade bottle from him before proceeding to uncork it. And when she did, the whole office became encased in a thick but rich pleasant scent. "This.. This is herbal adorant!" Her eyes lit up in amazement. Although she wasn't a Divine Physician herself, as the manager of Silver Eagles Auction House, it was only natural that she'd be in the company of a few Divine Physicians once in a while. She had even watched some of them brew medicines and according to them, only highest grade medicines could emit a wonderful scent in the air, called adorant. "Looks like you are well informed" Drew chuckled, while inwardly feeling shocked. After all, it was only after he had upgraded the skill *Ancient Shamanic Medicine* to the max did he finally knew what adorant meant in the field of medicine. "Judging by the intensity of the adorant being emitted.. this is a high quality medicine. Were y
"Why won't you accept the business proposal? I mean.. it would be in your favor right? you'd have the chance to forge a relationship with my master. Don't tell me you are the short sighted kind of person" this time, Drew no longer sounded confident as his palm became sweaty. "I know that. But if you keep on acting like you have all the winning cards in your pocket, then I'd have to decline. Don't think you can fool me. This is most likely a test given to you by your master so he won't be involved in it unless he sees tangible results. Isn't that right?" Loveth scoffed. "Uhhmm. R-Right " Drew nodded awkwardly. "Well, I think I would be able to improvise then. I'll accept your business proposals " "Really?" hearing that the other party had accepted, Drew's eyes sprang up with joy. With the full support of Silver Eagle Auction House, it would only be a matter of time before he dominates the Herbal market of North Heights. However Loveth's next words dampened his short termed exc
"Milk delivery!" Drew's bicyckle bell jingled as he parked at a dilapidated house. His expression scrunched up. How could such an apartment exist in this present world? It was made of brown worn out bricks. Apart from the wooden door, the walls were cleaved apart. "Come in!" an old voice replied. "Uh, okay" Drew checked the GPS on his watch. He was sure this was the place where the customer who ordered milk stayed. Hoisting up a packet of milk from the basket on tied to the bicycle, he walked briskly towards the apartment. Bang! He gave the door a gentle push. But accidently, it flew out of the door pane. "Sheesh!" Drew bit his tongue. "It's okay. It's been a long time since we had visitors" the apartment occupant laughed. He was an old man dressed in tank tops, bermuda shorts and a fisher man hat. He was seated on a stool, steering tea in the cup he held. "I brought your milk" Drew flashed the milk. A gentle but invisible force hoisted up the milk, bringing it towards t
"You are an A.I? who created you?" Drew asked. He finally realized that he didn't awaken a super power. Instead, a symbiotic machine bonded with him.-[I Am sorry, but you are not eligible to acess such information] Rolie replied. "When will i be eligible?" Drew asked.-[When the time comes you will know] At that moment, new words appeared on the panel screen.-[HOST INFO]-Name: Drew-Alias: ???-Race: Node-Nationality: Human-Planet: Earth-System: Sol-Galaxy: Milky way-[ATTRIBUTES]-Level: Level 0-Strength: 2 (pathetic)-Agility: 1 (pathetic)-Speed: 1 (pathetic)-Physique: 2 (pathetic)-Energy: 20-DF: 1 (pathetic)-COMBAT POWER: 4 (pathetic)-System Note: What a weak host!-[SKILL TREE]-Analysis: Can observe anything below level 2. 3 metre radius.

When Drew exited the hospital, he flagged down a taxi. "Where to?" the taxi man asked respectfully. "The nearest boutique. The faster you get me there, the more tips you will recieve" Drew said as he got in. The taxi man's eyes lit up. Another generous customer. He instantly stepped on the pedal and brought the vehicle to life. While the taxi man did his best to drive at his maximum, Drew sat comfortably at the back seat. He opened the system panel and tried increasing his strength stat.-[To increase strength stat by +1 costs 2 deci points] Drew went ahed, successfully increasing his strength stat. He only felt a slight ache in his biceps before the feeling vanished. Drew used up another six deci points, successfully increasing it to seven. He squandered the remaining ten deci points on his physique, bringing it on par with his strength stat. Due to this, his base damage increased. "This is not enough! i have to spend more money and get more deci points" he thought inwardl
Drew exited the boutique. Behind him were two security guards who held the things he just bough. Perhaps it was due to his lavish spending, but he noticed that the boutique management became more respectful to him. Just as he wanted to flag down a cab, he suddenly heard a voice. "Sir!" Turning over, he saw somebody sprinting towards him. It was the taxi man from before. The taxi man arrived before Drew and started panting, while leaning his arms against his knee. "Are you okay?" Drew asked, with genuine concern. Putong! To his shock, the taxi man dropped to his knees, tears steaming down his cheeks. "What are you doing?!" Drew shrieked in shock. His first reaction was to raise the taxi man up, but the latter refused to budge. "Allow me sir to fully show my appreciation! I also want to apologize for misunderstanding you earlier" the taxi man wailed as he grabbed the helm of Drew's pants. At that moment, he remembered he did send some extra cash to this taxi man."Why are you
Hugo and his wife were shocked when Drew quickly retracted his hands. Not just them, even Drew was confused. [That boy has a deadly illness. It can spread through skin contact, though it is only limited to Deviants] Drew breathed a sigh in relief. At that moment, Hugo spoke worriedly. "Is anything the matter Mr. Drew?" "It's nothing serious. I just noticed something peculiar about your child's illness. Let me inspect him a bit" Drew lied, while feigning to be deep in thoughts. "What kind of illness is it?" He asked Rollie. [Scan him with the analysis skill] Drew did as he was told. Soon, the results were out. -[TARGET INFO]-Name: Rick Martins-Age: 7-Zodiac: Aries-Specie: Homo-sapiens-Agility: 1-Speed: 1-Physique: 1-Strength: 1-Energy: 10-Combat power: 2! ! ! - Target has contacted the Evil shade virus.

Just as the two were about to grab Drew and throw him out, a voice halted their actions. "Stop!" A lady in blood red cocktail party dress hurriedly descended the stairs. Although she wore heels, she was pretty fast when she moved. "Miss. Diane!" the two bouncers gasped in shock when they saw this lady. Even those audiences waiting for a good show to play were gobsmacked. Why was she here?! "Tory and Bryan, how many times have i told you to respect the wants and needs of the customers huh?" Diane chastised the two bouncers. "But he clearly dosen't look like someone rich" Tory could only grumble this words in his stomach, whilst nodding like a male lizard. "Sir, I am sorry for the bad performance these two did. I hope you don't take it to heart" Diane probed Drew. "It was just a misunderstanding" Drew replied blankly. The previous charade made him lose his appetite. But he wasn't one to run away from what he started."But I am curious" his expression became one of amusement. "
