Are you here to kill him!

Chapter two.

Everyone's eyes widened, some of them mouth agape. They couldn't believe what Ethan had just done. Immediately they thought he wanted to kill the old master, Edward.

“Are you here to kill him?!”

“Why did you hit him so hard?” Another one barked.

“My father is on the verge of dying, and you dare hit him that hard?!”

“He…he….he's going to die,” Victoria sobbed, collapsing to the floor. She felt like she's the cause of his death.

She began to hit herself blaming herself that if only she didn't trust the so-called miracle doctor, if only she had believed them when they said he can't heal their grandfather.

Suddenly, the old master, Edward, began to cough abruptly. Victoria stood up, wiping her tears. She and the family ran to his aid.

Their father has not been able to cough or do anything. Now it was hard for them to know if this is a bad sign or a good one. The cough was dry, and pains filled the old master's eyes.

They began to bombard the old master with lots of questions.

“Father, are you okay?”

“Father, are you fine?

“Father! Father! Father!”

The eldest stood up and walked up to Ethan, his eyes blazing with anger.

“What have you done to my father!” He asked, pushing him, and Ethan's back slammed against the wall.

Ethan did not say anything, he just stared at him, his hands in his pocket, his facial expressions unreadable.

“If anything happens to my father, I swear you will regret messing around with Edward's family,” he threatened him, pointing his fingers at him.

But Ethan did not flinch, he just stared at him. Victoria let her tears flow freely, running the old master's hands.

Old master, Edward began to cough again, the cough was harsh, dry, and hacking. Victoria rubbed his back while others tried to fan him.

They became worried when they began to cough black blood. The blood he coughed filled two buckets.

“Doctors do something!” Victoria yelled.

But the other doctors were as confused as them. They had no idea what was happening to old master Edward.

Old master, Edward, stopped coughing. “Wa…..ter,” he managed to say, his voice horse.

Everyone gasped, they thought they didn't hear old master Edward well, until he repeated it.

They ran and brought him water. Old master took it in one goal and passed the cup to them asking for more. He drank until he was satisfied, and he leaned on the bed wood.

Everyone watched in awe, as the old master's white face began to change to its normal shape, his color was coming back. It was like magic to them.

The three doctors were stunned to their bones and ashamed of themselves. They could not believe their eyes.

And once again, Ethan still shined right in front of them. Ethan had just performed a legendary lost technique. They couldn't believe that a young man like him could be capable of something like this.

Left with no other option, they bowed down, touching Ethan's legs.

“All hail miracle doctor! All hail miracle doctor!” And one of them said, “We are in the presence of a god.”

Everyone were shocked, and they all fell on their knees and thanked Ethan, also apologized to him for the things they had said earlier, saying they were panicking and lost control.

Just then Old master, Edward, regained his voice and thanked Ethan then he asked. “Young man, who are you?”

Ethan didn't want to reveal his identity to them, so he simply said it was the general of the west who sent him to come heal the master.

He would rather not tell them that the general of the west, his disciples, actually pleaded with him to come save old master Edward, because of his good deeds.

He decided to help because the general of the west begged him the whole night. Everyone was shocked that he knew the general of the west. They find it challenging to believe that a young man like Ethan knew such an Influential person.

“Thank you, son,” old master Edward said, his eyes darting to his eldest son. “Double whatever you wanted to offer him.”

“He … .has … .not named his prize,’’ the eldest son responded. “When he first came, we all misjudged him.”

“What? How dare you look down on someone, now go on your knees and apologize,” old master Edward barked.

Despite Ethan telling him to let it slide, he still insisted that his son go on his knees and apologized saying that's the least thing he can do. Ethan left with no choice, agreed.

The eldest son went down on his knees and apologized, not because he healed his father but because Ethan knew the general of the west. A formidable man in the military.

“Son, what's your price?” Old master, Edward, asked.

Ethan chuckled, removing his hands from his pocket, folding his arms.

“What if I tell you I did it for free?”

The old master, Edward, shook his head. “You can't do it for free, son, mention your price.”

“If I were to charge you all, even if you combine all the wealth of the Edward's family you won't be able to pay.”

This made the Edward's family face darkened. They felt insulted, but they couldn't say anything because Ethan just saved their father.

Old master Edward struggled to stand up, the family members wanted to help him, but he stopped them. After much struggle, they were able to stand up.

He walked up to Ethan, despite feeling insulted he let it slide standing In Front of Ethan with so much pride.

“The Edward's aren't one to take favors from people. What do you want?”

“Unfortunately, I maintain my stand, I did it for free.”

“Name your price,” Old master Edward demanded.

But Ethan kept quiet, staring at him. He didn't mean to disrespect the old man, that's why he didn't walk away.

Seeing that Ethan refused to name a price, the old man said, “How about you get married to my daughter, Victoria.”
