Chapter 733 by Marina Vittori
An Understated Dominance
The old man pinched his thigh and was happy to feel a slight pain. His legs had been completely numb before this, but he was slowly regaining sensation in his legs. This was wonderful!
âThere. All done.â Miranda grinned as she observed her work. âYou must be extremely talented to be able to treat his symptoms so quickly. No wonder youâre a genius in the medical field!â The invigilator was pleased.
âSo I guess that means I passed?â Miranda raised an eyebrow. âOf course. Both of you passed with flying colors,â the invigilator answered with a smile. His answer made Preston and Miranda very happy.
They had initially received full marks on the first two tests. But because of Dustin, their marks. dropped after the second round. Still, thanks to this round, theyâve managed to raise their points. back up again.
âDid you see that, bastard? Thatâs how good our medical skills are!â Preston taunted. âIt only took us half an hour to let this patient regain feelings in his legs after being paralyzed for the past eight years. Can you do that?â
âGive up if you canât, instead of making yourself look like a fool!â Miranda sneered.
Just because Dustin was good at alchemy, it didnât mean heâd also be skilled in treating patients. After all, although both fields may have some similarities, thereâs still a big difference between the two.
âWhy are you bragging when youâve only helped the patient recover partially? Others might think. that youâve completely cured him.â Dustin rolled his eyes.
âWith my skills, curing him is a piece of cake! Just give me a month, and Iâll have him walking again!â Miranda puffed her chest.
âA month? Flowers would have wilted when youâre done,â Dustin responded disdainfully.
âShut up! At least I can treat him. What about you?â Miranda sneered.
âWhatâs so difficult about that? Just give me three minutes, Iâll get him to walk,â Dustin answered.
âThree minutes?â Surprised, Preston burst out laughing. âHave you gone crazy? Youâre telling me that you can treat someone who has been paralyzed from the waist down for the past eight years in just three minutes? Do you think youâre a magician or something?â
âWhat a fool!â Miranda looked at Dustin in disgust.
After being unable to walk for eight years, the old manâs muscles would have wasted away by now. So there was no way he could walk in just three minutes.
âYoung people nowadays are so arrogant Several Stoneray Order elders shook their heads in disappointment
Even they were not able to do much when treating the old man, so they were sure that Dustin would not be able to do much as well
âThat proud idiot is only making a fool of himself!â The invigilator sneered. Even Linden wouldnât be able to get that man to stand up again.
âSince none of you seem to believe me, Iâll just have to show you.â Dustin didnât bother explaining further. He took out a silver needle and approached the old man. After checking for the spot he was aiming for, he fiercely pierced the needle into the old manâs body.
There was a hum as the needle began to vibrate. A burst of true energy surged from the top of the
manâs skull and spread throughout his body.
The old man shuddered, and his eyes flew open. He could feel the blast of energy flooding him from head to toe. His heartbeat picked up its pace, and his breathing quickened.
âDone.â Dustin stepped back and waited with his hand behind his back.
âThatâs it? Is this a joke?â Miranda ridiculed him.
âWho the hell do you think you are? Did you think poking him with a single needle would be enough to cure him? If it works, Iâll kneel at your feet and call you âdaddyâ!â Preston mocked.
Almost immediately, the old man in the wheelchair reacted to Dustinâs treatment. His face. flushed, and he looked uncomfortable as his body heated up and sweat built up on his skin.
âH-h-hot! Itâs hot!â Seconds later, the old man jumped up like his butt was on fire, jumping off the wheelchair.
