Chapter 1767

Austin sat quietly, then got up and left his room.

The spacious house seemed unusually quiet, with no signs of anyone around.He noticed the open backyard door, crossed the hall,

and went outside.

When he arrived at the backyard, he caught the unique scent of various herbs.Dominic stood thoughtfully among the herbs with

his hands behind his back.

Austin did not interrupt his granduncle and remained quiet fora while.

When he turned to leave, he heard Dominic's voice, "Since you've regained sstrength, why don’t you helppick some

herbs?"

Austin was surprised but still walked over and picked up the basket Dominic had placed aside.

"I've written whatever | need, but can you still recognize them?"

Dominic pointed forward with his chin without looking at his grandnephew.

Austin gazed down and saw a piece of paper inside the basket.

Several names of uncommonly used herbs were on it, but he knew what they looked like.

Austin smiled, swung the basket over his shoulder, and walked forward.

Although it was easy to identify the herbs, the various plants were unorganized and scattered.Austin moved around and took some

tto gather every herb on the list.no.vel.e.book He was out of breath and covered in sweat when he finished.He had just

recovered and was unsure if he was 100% well now, although he no longer suffered the torment he used to.He was exhausted

beyond measure after the hard work.

However, even though he felt weary, he felt much better.He had much more energy, and his breathing had becsteadier.

"Uncle Dom, I've gathered them all!"

Austin caught his breath with sweat streaming down his cheeks.Then he smilingly handed the basket to Dominic like it was a

treasure.

Austin suddenly recalled Dominic asking him to search for herbs like this when he was little.

Austin was energetic during that tbut knew little about plants.He had to compare them to the descriptions in his medical

books.

Still, he would make mistakes and sometimes gather the wrong herbs.

Whenever that happened, Dominic would hit Austin with a twig and call him stupid, saying it was fortunate that he had not

accepted Austin as his student.

Otherwise, it would ruin his reputation.

However, Dominic would tell Austin why the herbs were different despite looking alike whenever he scolded his grandnephew.He

also taught Austin to differentiate the herbs, their uses, and the correct dosages.

Austin gradually learned about herbal medicine through such punishments and lessons.

As Austin grew up and gained experience and fame, outsiders started to create hype about him.

Austin somehow resented Dominic for not teaching him officially when Austin thought he had fundamental skills and capabilities.

Instead, Dominic secretly had someone else as his last apprentice.

Austin could only give vague and ambiguous answers to others about his background and could not admit he was indeed

Dominic's student.

After escaping death, Austin finally understood he was not good enough to be his granduncle’s apprentice.

No matter how upset Austin was, it was a fact that Lily was more skillful and talented than him.

Also, she had never told anyone who she was, while Austin had always thought she was just a perfumer.

Lily’s achievements in the fusion of scents and herbs had amazed Austin.

Dominic smiled as he stood there while the breeze blew.

With his pale face covered in sweat, Austin let out a sincere and radiant smile at the stime.

Then he started, "You..."

As he was about to speak, he heard a gasp, "Austin?!"

Austin looked spontaneously toward the source of the voice.

"Mom?"
