Online Game: I Started with Max Charisma and Caught the Goddess's Eye

Chapter 12: Lady Lenna's Illness

Looking at his status panel, Luca couldn't help but smile.

If he remembered correctly, in his previous life, he hadn't even picked up a quest at this stage. It took him a week to reach level 10.

In this life, his strength had improved at least ten times faster!

However, Luca remained vigilant.

The appearance of Hydra made him feel the urgency of the situation.

Compared to such a Transcendent-tier monster, he was less than an ant.

These Abyssal Demon Realm monsters were like the Sword of Damocles hanging over his head, leaving no room for complacency.

"I need to complete the profession change trial and become a Demonic Rune Mage as soon as possible," Luca thought to himself. Only by becoming a Demonic Rune Mage could he continue leveling up.

He could then convert the gold coins into power, allowing him to reach greater heights.

With this in mind, Luca closed his status panel and quickened his pace toward Franklin's clinic.

Before long, he arrived at the secluded alley on West Street.

Outside the clinic, Franklin was still tending to the unconscious Kaman's injuries.

Additionally, there were two other people in the clinic.

To Luca's surprise, they were familiar faces.

The cold and elegant Sophia and the silver-armored Cassman.

Inside the clinic, Sophia, in a noble gown, was slightly bent over, speaking respectfully, "Witch Doctor Franklin, my mother has been feeling unwell these past few days, but we haven't been able to determine the cause."

"So I would like to invite you to Howard Manor to examine her."

"If you are willing to come, the Howard family will offer a generous reward."

As a rare high-level Witch Doctor of purple-gold rank, Franklin's strength and social status were on par with Sophia's father, Count Ryan. Even Sophia had to show respect.

However, Franklin shook his head and flatly refused, "Miss Sophia, you should seek help elsewhere. I've made it clear that I don't treat nobles. Even though Count Ryan is decent, I won't go against my principles."

Sophia's eyes showed worry, and she seemed about to say more.

Meanwhile Franklin noticed Luca at the door.

His previously impatient face lit up with a smile, "You're back! You didn't get hurt, did you?"

Sophia and Cassman then noticed Luca at the door.

Sophia was surprised to see Luca there.

And she sensed something unusual in Franklin's attitude toward him.

As she pondered this.

Luca's next words clarified the situation for her.

"Thank you for your concern, teacher. I'm fine. Here's the Dire Wolf's heart," Luca said, handing the heart to Franklin from his storage ring.

He then turned to Sophia and Cassman, "Miss Sophia, Knight Cassman, it's surprising to see you again so soon."

"Teacher? You're Franklin's apprentice?" Cassman looked at Luca, eyes wide with shock.

He wondered if he had misheard!

Franklin was famously eccentric throughout Riverfall City.

Despite his powerful purple-gold rank and superb medical skills, countless people had offered him heaps of gold to be his disciple, yet Franklin hadn't taken a single apprentice in decades.

And now, this young man had become his student in just half a day!

No wonder Cassman was so astonished.

Sophia was equally surprised, not understanding why Franklin had suddenly changed his mind.

Luca casually said, "I was just lucky that the teacher took an interest in me."

Franklin, looking quite proud, added, "Believe me, if nothing goes wrong, this boy will be my most accomplished student ever!"

Sophia glanced at Luca in amazement.

Such a high compliment from a high-level Witch Doctor of Franklin's stature was incredibly significant.

She scrutinized Luca closely, her beautiful eyes flashing with a hint of curiosity.

This boy's strength had improved rapidly!

If Sophia remembered correctly, this young man was just an ordinary Apprentice Mage not long ago.

Now, she could clearly sense that Luca's magical power had increased more than tenfold, far exceeding the range of a Black Iron Level mage!

In just one day, to have such an improvement in strength...

No wonder Franklin had taken notice of him. He was indeed extraordinary!

Cassman, noticing the same thing, sincerely praised, "It looks like Franklin Witch Doctor has found a real gem."

"Hahaha, exactly!" Franklin beamed with pride.

Luca's perception talent was the best Franklin had ever seen.

After all, it was a level 10 innate max-level perception!

Franklin even dared to say that there were few in the entire Eternal Continent who could match Luca's talent!

"Teacher, let's focus on saving the patient first," Luca interjected with a wry smile.

With Franklin, a high-level Witch Doctor, present, Kaman's condition hadn't worsened, but it was best to treat him as soon as possible.

After all, Luca had received an extra 50 gold coins from Catherine and felt obliged to take care of her brother.

"Oh, I almost forgot about Kaman," Franklin said, smacking his forehead. Realizing there was a young life at stake, he quickly directed Luca and Cassman to help move Kaman onto the examination table.

He then began using his Witch Doctor synthesis magic, working with the Dire Wolf heart that Luca had brought back.

Sophia, though anxious to have Franklin examine her mother, knew this wasn't the time to interrupt.

After hesitating for a moment, she sighed and decided to leave to find another healer in Riverfall City.

Franklin's eccentricity was well-known. Since he had refused, even she, the daughter of a count and a noble lady of the Howard family, couldn't sway a purple-gold ranked powerhouse like him.

Perhaps only her father, Count Ryan, could persuade him.

but he had left for Southwind City in the Southern Territory on the orders of Marquis Bronte and wouldn't return to the Emerald State for a while.

Seeing Sophia and Cassman preparing to leave.

Luca thought for a moment and called out to her, "Miss Sophia, please wait a moment."

Sophia stopped and turned back, her beautiful eyes filled with curiosity. "Witch Doctor Luca, is there something you need?"

Luca smiled and said, "If you trust me, I can visit Howard Manor tomorrow to examine the Countess's illness."

He wasn't particularly interested in treating illnesses, but the generous reward Sophia mentioned intrigued him.

If he could cure the Countess, the Howard family's wealth would surely benefit him greatly.

"You?" Sophia looked at Luca, surprised.

Her mother's illness had already been examined by many healers.

Including some of Gold Grade, without success.

She couldn't understand how a young Witch Doctor like Luca could confidently make such a claim.

Luca responded calmly, "Rest assured, I wouldn't offer if I wasn't confident."

In his previous life, his secondary profession as a healer had reached the Superclass level. Even if he couldn't cure the illness, he was certain no harm would come from his attempt.

Cassman frowned and said, "Kid, don't mess around. That's the Countess we're talking about. If anything goes wrong, you won't be able to bear the responsibility."

At that moment, Franklin, who was still busy, suddenly spoke up, "If he can't bear the responsibility, I certainly can."

He then looked up and smiled at the two, "Though my student has only just become a Witch Doctor, he has some extraordinary abilities. You can rest assured. If he can't resolve the Countess's illness, I'll personally take a look."

Luca gave Franklin a grateful glance.

His teacher was really backing him up!

Hearing this, Sophia thought for a moment.

She finally nodded and said calmly, "I trust that anyone valued so highly by Franklin Witch Doctor must be exceptional. Since Mr. Luca is willing to come, we would appreciate it if you visit Howard Manor tomorrow. As long as no harm comes during the treatment, even if you can't cure my mother's illness, we will still offer a reward."

Although she didn't fully understand why Franklin trusted Luca so much, Sophia knew there had to be a reason.

Moreover, she instinctively felt that Luca wasn't someone who made empty promises.
