The girl stood frozen in place, the smile on her face slowly fading into terror.
The sword on her neck was as cold as her current mood.
The black-clad soldiers beside her were also suppressed by the doctor's overwhelming aura, daring not to move.
This doctor is really strong, huh?
The sudden turn of events also surprised Vivian and Kasha.
When the black lion cub grew into a powerful soldier and ford a contract with the girl, they were still slightly afraid.
But in the next mont, the situation reversed. Charlotte suddenly drew his sword and defeated the enemy with one move.
"Please state your choice," Charlotte looked at the young orc girl and spoke again.
"I... I want to go ho," the girl said weakly.
"Go ho?" Charlotte narrowed his eyes. "What is your na and where do you co from?"
"I'm Marsha, from the Lion Tribe. My father was the forr tribe chief, Shumah," the girl answered obediently.
"The forr chief?"
Marsha's gaze dimd as she said, "A year ago, my uncle, Scar, conspired with a necromancer and killed my father. That was also when I was cursed. But with the help of my fellow tribesn, I managed to escape from the tribe."
Charlotte looked into her eyes, trying to see if she was lying. But according to her story, everything seed to fit perfectly.
The Lion Tribe was quite renowned, so it wouldn't be difficult to verify this information.
"Do you want revenge?" Charlotte asked.
"Yes!" Marsha's eyes lit up as she looked at Charlotte's nod of affirmation.
"I want to kill Scar, avenge my parents, and seek justice for those of our tribe who were hard by him."
"So, you're willing to beco a necromancer."
Marsha didn't flinch, looking at Charlotte.
"That's my choice. I don't think there's anything wrong with it. I claim the souls of beasts, not the souls of other intelligent beings, like other necromancers."
"Beasts' souls?" Charlotte was sowhat surprised.
"Yes, I have mastered the thod of refining the souls of beasts. I can beco stronger by refining beast spirits," Marsha nodded slightly.
"Every Red Moon Night, I collect the souls of beasts to nurture this black lion cub."
"How can you prove it?"
Marsha gently tapped the lion cub's head with her hand, and spiritual apparitions suddenly appeared from its body. There were cheetahs, elks, and eagles, various types of beast spirits but without the presence of any intelligent race's spirits.
Charlotte lowered the sword of judgnt in his hand and took a step back, nodding slightly.
"The delivery fee for this birth is 1200 copper coins. If you settle the bill, you can leave."
Marsha was montarily stunned by Charlotte's sudden change, but her face soon revealed a look of difficulty. She lowered her head and grasped her clothes in distress.
"Do... do you happen to not have any money?" Charlotte had seen many patients pretending to be hesitant after the fact, and he imdiately saw through her true nature.
Marsha looked embarrassed and said, "After escaping from the tribe, I've been wandering outside for over a year. I hardly enter towns except for Abyss and rarely interact with people, so..."
"Do you have anything valuable on you that can be used to settle the bill?" Charlotte asked.
"Sothing valuable..."
Marsha looked down and checked. The cloak she was wearing was stolen and didn't have anything valuable on it.
But seeing Charlotte's attitude, she realized that if she didn't settle the bill today, she probably wouldn't be able to leave this clinic.
She couldn't understand why there would be a knight who was also a doctor in this world.
"I... I..."
Marsha grasped her clothes, her face turning red, and said in a low voice, "Can I pay with... my body?"
"Huh?" Charlotte was shocked.
Vivian was also stunned by Marsha's words.
Kasha, on the other hand, remained more composed. After all, she had said sothing similar before.
The poor girl's only valuable possession was her virginity.
Of course, not just anyone was worthy of it.
Normally, only those who were handso enough would have the opportunity for such a transaction. Otherwise, they would have to wait for their next life to repay with servitude.
"No, the clinic does not accept that kind of paynt," Charlotte firmly refused.
