Thirty minutes... just thirty minutes were used to stitch his wound, and now he had to pay 500,000 gold coins, bringing his total debt to this doctor to 700,000 gold coins.
Even if he sold everything he had, he wouldn't have enough money to pay off his debt, except for the Black Rose Fla.
Alec felt a little regretful, no, extrely regretful that he went to the 15th floor and t that damn old guy who used a stone pillar to stab his 'daisy'.
Not only that, he was also teleported by that damn old man to the middle of the hall of the Enchanter Tower.
If there was an award for tragic main characters, Alec would probably win first place.
The doctor stood next to his hospital bed, holding the second debt contract that Alec had just signed, his eyes showing a bit of joy.
In fact, in order to stitch up Alec's wound, the doctor spent two hours the first ti.
Even though it was only a small wound, during the stitching process, the doctor vomited many tis. Besides... This was the first ti that he perford such a stitch.
However, the second ti, he only felt a little nauseous, so his speed was many tis faster.
The third ti... this ti, the doctor completely lost his sense of nausea. When he saw Alec's 'daisy' soaked in blood and feces, the doctor felt that it was extrely normal.
So, that's also the reason why, this ti, it only took him thirty minutes to sew Alec's 'daisy'.
The doctor smiled and said: "Hahaha... Thank you. I hope you can repay the debt on ti."
"AH! If your 'daisy' is torn a fourth ti, the price will still be 500,000 gold coins, it won't change."
*Sigh* That doctor sighed: "After all, I am a doctor. If I continuously increase the cost of treatnt, I will be like so greedy nobles."
"I am such a kind doctor."
Alec: "PFFF!!!"
Alec almost spat out a mouthful of blood, however, he tried to suppress his emotions, otherwise, he was afraid his 'daisy' would be torn apart again.
"You… you…" Alec gritted his teeth, his face pale from losing too much blood: "Do you want my 'daisy' to tear again? You are so cruel!"
The doctor shrugged and said: "You can't scold , after all, it's your hobby. You can search all over Karol, no, search all over this continent and see…"
"If you find a second person who has had their 'daisy' torn three tis in two days, if you find such a person, I will waive all treatnt costs free of charge."
Alec was extrely angry when he heard that. He just gasped for air. In the end, he could only try to control his anger.
"You... one day, I will take my revenge."
Hearing that Alec wanted revenge, the doctor was, of course, not afraid. He didn't even care, he just indifferently said: "Before taking revenge, rember to pay all your debt."
"Rember, you only have 7 days to pay back the entire 700,000 gold coins you owe."
Alec clenched his fists until they turned white. At this mont, Laura frowned and said: "What are you doing?"
"Hmm?!" Alec was startled: "What do you an?"
Laura glanced at Alec and said: "This doctor treated you when no one else wanted to treat you. This is even the first ti I've seen soone treat a patient and allow a debt contract to be signed."
"You're not grateful, instead, what's the point of clenching your fists like that? Do you want to attack him?"
"I… I…" Alec loosened his grip, his mouth faltering as he did not know how to explain.
'Damn it! He cheated of 700,000 gold coins, and you won't even let show a little of my anger?'
'AAA!!! Damn it!'
Laura said contemptuously: "Alec, I have all your information. Because you co from the countryside and do not understand the Empire's laws, I can forgive you."
"If there is a second ti… I will have to detain you for a month, understand?"
Alec gritted his teeth and nodded slightly: "I... I understand."
Laura stood up, then left. Alec saw that she and the doctor had completely left the dical room. He angrily clutched the blanket that was covering him.
"Damn!!!" Alec gritted his teeth and said harshly: "Laura, one day I will force you to kneel down and beg . As for that bastard doctor, I will kill him and burn him to ashes."
"That's enough, Alec…" dos sighed and said: "I think... we should leave Karol."
"Why?" Alec angrily shouted: "Why do I have to be the one to leave this place?"
"You still don't realize it?" dos said with an extrely tired voice: "Since I t you, everything you do is easy."
"Even if you are in mortal danger, you can easily escape and even encounter opportunities that can help you beco stronger."
"However, since you ca to this place… no, to be more precise, since you t Lathel, your luck seems to have gradually disappeared."
"You can't see that as long as Lathel appears, you can't do anything."
"That's why I think we can go to another city and start over."
"No!" Alec shouted angrily, and suddenly he winced because his 'daisy' was in so much pain that it made him roll his eyes.
Alec tried to control his pain and breathing. After a while, he said softly: "Why do I have to leave? Teacher, do you think I will lose because of him?"
dos sighed: "I don't know, but… I think… this is probably your retribution for intentionally trying to harm Lathel."
"Teacher… you… What the hell are you talking about?" Alec suddenly hesitated.
"Huh! Don't think I don't know. The pill you gave that girl is an extrely powerful narcotic with a huge dose, even a level 40 magician will definitely die if he takes it."
"That's right." Alec laughed fiercely: "I want him dead."
"Why? He helped you and gave all the credit for saving Malina to you, why do you still want to harm him?" dos was confused.
"Whattt!" Alec angrily shouted: "Teacher, don't be fooled by his lies. He is just a liar."
"He must have been greedy for Claire and Malina's beauty, that's why he saved them."
"After that, he felt that Malina was no longer worth using, and she didn't like him, so he gave that opportunity."
"Besides... he wanted to let my guard down with him, so I would be grateful for what he did."
"Lathel… He really has a lot of plans, killing two birds with one stone."
dos: "…"
He felt that Alec's train of thought seed completely different from that of normal people.
Could it be… what Lathel said was true? Does Alec tend to think of himself as the victim?
dos also continued: "So what do you think will happen if Lathel really dies because of your pill?"
"You should rember that his identity is now that of the son of a Duchess, they will soon know that the pill ca from you."
"Do you think you can escape?"
Hearing that, Alec was a bit startled, however, he still gritted his teeth and said: "I don't believe that a useless person like him dying would make everyone angry with ."
"I am a genius. I have the Black Rose Fla, my value is countless tis higher than Lathel, will everyone kill for a useless person like him?"
"You…" dos didn't know what to say, in the end, he sighed and advised Alec: "You still have ti to leave Karol, otherwise…"
"Teacher, stop advising . I… am the protagonist, a child of fate… I… cannot fail."
dos was silent for a long mont, he then sighed, as he felt very disappointed in Alec.
"Alec, you and Lathel signed a peace contract, you cannot kill him."
Alec smiled disdainfully and said, "Yes, he and I have indeed signed a peace contract. However, Lafien didn't."
…
At the Montague family.
Malina slowly woke up, and when she saw that she was lying in an extrely luxurious room, she was startled and sat up.
"Miss…" Claire stood next to the bed. Seeing Malina awake, she was so happy that she cried: "Finally… you finally woke up."
Claire rushed forward and hugged Malina tightly. Malina tilted her head… she looked at Claire, then asked: "Claire… I… I'm still alive?"
"That's right." Claire nodded, unable to control her emotions, as she continuously stroked Malina's hair: "We're still alive. Not only that, Mardian also let us live in the Montague family's most luxurious area."
Malina nodded, her face not showing too much joy.
She asked softly: "Who is it?"
"Heh?!" Claire slowly let go of Malina. Looking at her indifferent face, she felt extrely confused.
Malina said again: "Who saved us?"
Claire pursed her lips tightly. In her heart, she really wanted to say that the person who saved her was Lathel, but she promised Lathel not to say this.
"Why don't you answer?" Malina frowned and asked: "Is it Alec?"
Finally, Claire nodded slightly: "Yes, it's him."
"Huh!" Malina snorted in contempt: "I also guessed that the person who saved was him."
"Why?" Claire asked confusedly: "How did you know that the person who saved you is Alec?"
"So, who do you think will save ?" Malina said annoyedly: "My father? No, he will never do that. Besides… my injuries are too severe, he won't spend a lot of resources to save a useless person like ."
"Only Alec has what it takes to save . But… I just feel strange because he once refused to save us because we were no longer worth anything. So… why did he still save ?"
Claire didn't know how to answer, she quickly changed the subject: "Master, at the end of the day Alec saved us, and we don't need to care about his reasons."
"The most important thing is… we… how we should thank him."
Malina glanced at Claire, then smiled contemptuously: "Hahahah... why should I thank him?"
"Because…" Claire faltered.
"Huh! He is my knight, do you understand, Claire?" Malina suddenly shouted: "Saving is his responsibility. Why should we thank him?"
"I haven't scolded him yet for abandoning when I was most desperate. Even if he saved later, that was only his responsibility."
"Besides… Since he saved , there must have been so conspiracy. Either… he wants my body or he needs to do sothing."
Malina's eyes suddenly beca sharp and filled with anger: "Claire, how many tis do I have to tell you before you understand?"
"There are no good n."
