The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage

Chapter 1656



Seeing that everyone except Frank had chosen their herbs, Kairo returned on stage, swiping and taking what remained on the table.

With that, all the herbs that were not chosen for the second trial were slid into his pocket.

"Huh?"

Yosil and the other Kornac's Keep elders were frowning when they saw what Kairo did.

Being sly old foxes themselves, they could certainly tell what Kairo was doing.

Frank had certainly stolen the limelight earlier, embarrassing Kairo.

As such, Kairo now sought payback by taking away any herbs Frank could use, aside from some useless mudroots.

And without any herbs, Frank was not going to counteract the poison in his body.

"Kairo Wal-"

Even before Mole could start, Kairo shrugged innocently. "There's no rule stating how many herbs we can take, is there? I'm going to try every herb to see if I can make a quality pill."

Kairo's words left Mole stumped, and he turned with a frown at Frank.

Seeing that Frank was still seated meditatively, unaware of everything around him, Mole suddenly wondered what Frank would do when he woke up and saw that there was nothing but useless mudroot

As such, while he was going to stop Kairo earlier, he turned toward Yosil and realized that Yosil was watching Frank in interest, clearly thinking the same thing.

Seeing that, Mole simply decided to look the other way.

Time flew, and soon, forty minutes passed.

At this point, most of the participants still taking part in the second trial had identified the toxicology of the soup. In fact, some of the more gifted individuals were using the cauldrons that Kornac's Keep provided to cook pills.

Ira was one of them.

special, it would still counteract the poison Ira drank.

That meant that he got a passing mark.

"Hahaha... I was just lucky." Ira smiled proudly, looking at the successful pill and inhaling its sweet scent.

Nheless, a stronger herbal aroma wafted across the air, as Kairo's cauldron fire subsided.

"Hup!" Kairo yelled as he smacked his palm on the cauldron.

A crystalline white pill shot out of the cauldron right then, and Kairo caught it in the air.

"Amazing!" Mole's eyes lit up at once at the sight of that white pill.

If Ira's pill was of passing mark and barely qualified as a pill, Kairo's was a treasure.

It was nothing divine, but a rarity nheless.

Counteracting poison with that pill was basically overkill, especially with the other effects it had.

"Not bad."

Even Yosil was clapping in approval.
