Abel stopped Frank, smiling confidently. "This is Morhen, Mr. Lawrence, and I've been working here in Morhen for decades. I can't promise you that I can get you anything amazing, but decades and even centuries old natural wonders are not a problem at all. Just leave it to me!" If anything, Abel and Jim were hesitant because Frank's request was too simple, leaving them at a loss. After all, they were ready for Frank to demand something outrageous.

Jim nodded but soon turned worriedly toward his grandfather with a frown. "What about the Soranos, Gramps?" Abel laughed exasperatedly. "Don't think I can't see through your schemes, brat. That's why you wanted Mr. Lawrence to list his nwith us, didn't you?" Turning and giving Jim a solemn look, he said, "I know. The Soranos are pulling all stops to get involved in the pharmaceutical business, but they are sticking to modern medicine, which means they're our rivals." "Yeah." Jim nodded.
In fact, the head of the Sorano family basically threw the conundrum that was Gus at them exactly for that reason. If they failed to help Gus, the Soranos had an excuse to harass them, demonstrating to the public that Draconia traditional medicine did not work while endorsing modern medicine.
And having been getting involved in showbiz for years, the Soranos were immaculate when it cto publicity.
If Frank did not come, they would have fallen victim to the Soranos' elaborate scheme.
Shaking his head in exasperation, Abel sighed. "That said, we must still be respectful toward Mr. Lawrence from now on. The renaissance of Draconian traditional medicine depends on him." "Yes, Grandpa." Jim nodded determinedly.

He headed to his room and locked the door, mixing the herbs he brought and refining it.
Eventually, he had ten irregular sized black pills sitting on his palm. He put them in a bottle and called Nash, passing him the antidote pills, and the Ichor Pill and asking him to deliver them to Gus at Sorang Estate. After all, Frank really did not want to go-Willy Sorano would definitely try to give him a hard tif they met, and Frank really did not wantto catch the heat. And down-to-earth as ever, Nash agreed to Frank's request solemnly and hurried to Sorano Estate in his white sedan.
On the other hand, Frank thought about it but eventually decided to go looking for Helen and Kat.
For sreason, Kat was always hostile toward Helen, and she must be planning something bad and Frank could never trust her attitude.
To no surprise, when Frank found Helen at the basement bar nearby, he saw the exasperated look on her face as she sat with a group of students.
