Blake's POV
Seeing that she was not keen to say anything about herself yet, | did not say any word and just patiently waited while diminishing my presence. | know that it was not easy to fish out information, especially to someone as wary as her.
“No wonder the townspeople thought that your mother’s disease is contagious...” The young doctor frowned as she slowly pulled out the sleeve of the patient's clothes.
Red painful blisters were all over her body, some were filled with pus and already close to rotting. “P-Please! Help my mother... doctor!” Larry’s eyes reddened in panic as he heard the doctor’s words.
“En... First, | will give her something to address the source of the illness... Her fever was caused by the severe infection in her skin... but rest assured it is not contagious and now that we are here, it would no longer be fatal for her.” The young doctor just gave a serious nod as she continued to evaluate the patient’s condition.
“Let me use your kitchen, | will have several potions... for now, let your mother drink this to regulate... you come with me to assist...” After finishing the evaluation, the young doctor gave a vial to Larry and beckoned me to assist her in her work.
| took a quick glance at the vial and saw that it was similar to what werewolves used to take, only that it was several times weaker than the original.
In the end | helped the young doctor prepare a medicinal bath, a few doses of her medicine and some healing ointment.
The next moment | and Larry had to carry her mother and assist the doctor clean the wounds before letting the patient finally rest to bed.
“That's it... follow the instructions | gave you for your mother’s recovery. | have prepared enough for a week... that should be enough for her condition to stabilize. | will go down once more to check her condition by that time then...” The young doctor reminded us before bidding us goodbye.
“Thank you for your help, good doctor.” Acting like a good uncle | bowed. Beside me however, was Larry crying profusely in relief.
The young doctor gave a nod before disappearing in the forest. | watched her back, thinking that | should leave and follow her tracks shortly after.
“Mister... Thank you for helping me..” Larry mumbled.
“| did not do much... in the end, it is the doctor who helped your mother...” | answered, “It’s time for me to go...”
After bidding goodbye to Larry, | finally stepped out of the dilapidated cabin and moved toward where the young doctor left. Just as | was about to leave, | suddenly turned to another direction and looked from afar.
The moonlight shone in a faint gray and | could see nothing but the darkness of the woods. But something warm in me flowed outwardly, as | looked at the direction and smiled.
| did not move. No, | did not do or say anything. Merely, | kept my eyes towards that direction, my heart feeling a myriad of complicated feelings.
In the end, | could not express myself except for letting out a simple smile.
"Mister?" Probably surprised why | suddenly stopped moving, the human boy asked as he looked at me curiously. "Is there something wrong?" Larry added while walking out of the house and following my gaze. "Is there something there?"
| remained silent and did not say anything. Was there something there? That was also the question | had in mind. | was confused at first, but after thinking about it for a while, my heart knew the answer.
Yes, there was something in there.
When | left the building, | felt a shift in my east. It was a very brief, very slight movement, but | felt. Someone... was closely watching me. And | was sure of it... that someone... was the one | have been looking for for many years. Unbeknownst to me, my cold eyes turned slightly softer.
‘The young doctor's method... it was something that | have seen for a long time. The way she diagnosed the patient... her questions while examining her... her method of curing her... Further... the vial of medicine the young doctor used...’ | thought to myself.
‘Teacher Astor's method of medicine that only to two persons, Arthur and Chloe...’ | thought as | clenched my fists.
‘More importantly, the potion that the young doctoe used... It's very subtle and hidden, but when | was assisting her, | smelled something strange in that potion...’
‘It's a healing medicine concocted through poison mixing... Something that only one person knows...’ My eyes flashed with emotions.
‘In this world, it's only Chloe, who is both the disciple of Teacher Asto and the daughter gf ane of the greatest bison master that lived on this realm, could do it...’ | thought as my heart started pounding in my chest.

"Mister? Are you really okay?" Behind me, Larry asked, worry appearing in his voice. | opened my lips for a secons before pausing. Then, | let out another sigh. This time, my sigh was not too light nor deep. "It's... nothing,” | answered the human boy before taking a step forward.
“Ah! Mister... You're really going?" Larry hesitated. Seemingly, the boy who was just very frightened of me was now reluctant to let me go.
