Chapter 2029
"Mr. Larson, I'm very sorry | can't help you, but please take this medical journal. | do hope it can help you on your
journey."
What? | can't take that! Matthew might be close enough to Paintaker to give him a nickname, but he wouldn't
take this medical journal the monk spent years on. The monk was talented enough to create a grea almanac in
the future if he had this journal. Matthew solemnly said, "Paintaker, you're my friend. Please, take the journal
back. If you wish to help me, then perfect that journal and givea copy if you will."
Paintaker froze for a moment, and he realized what Matthew was trying to say. "Of course, Mr. Larson. | didn't
mean to insult you." He backed off and entered his room, looking embarrassed. Then, the monk cback with
the Diamond Sutra.
Monks believed in three tenets: kindness, fate, and emptiness. Matthew shared the workings of the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtReconstruction Pill with everyone in hopes that they could create anticancer medicine and save even more
people. That was, to Paintaker, an act of kindness. Fate was the one who pushed them to meet each other in
Bainbridge. The emptiness was harder to explain, but Matthew's act of not expecting anything in return for his
teachings was an example of that. Everyone else gave him something because they had something to give, yet
he had nothing to give, so he tried to give Matthew his journal. To give away something he did not have was an
insult to his faith.
Matthew got the meaning behind the gesture, and he took the chance to clear things up with everyone. "I'm fine,
people. My hara's all healed now. | haven't gained back all my power, but soon, | will." Matthew kept Bloodreaper
a secret, of course. He didn't think these people would spill it out, but someone might let it slip by accident. He
had to be careful as the potential implications were huge. Yet the more he explained, the more these contestants
thought he was just trying to politely decline their offer. "We don't take our gifts back. Just use them to heal up.
Let's go, people. We have research to do and preparations to make for the competition."
Once the lad from Shrewsdon Valley Sect left, so did everyone else. Sof them might have known that
Matthew was healed, but sdidn't. Yet, they didn't take their gifts back. It was a thank-you gesture for
Matthew's teachings.
Things happen for a reason. Okay, then. Matthew accepted the gifts at last.
Only Lola was left. "It's impossible to heal a broken hara. Perhaps you're the exception, but I still want to thank
you for your teachings. Here, take this. A seed of the Flaming Elysian Lotus." She handed a lotus seed to
Matthew. It was a gleaming red seed with energy swirling around it.
This is priceless. The ladies would kill for this. It's the perfect beauty product and superfood. Even a hag can look
as young as a college girl if she takes this, and at no cost at all. No, it can make her healthier too. This seed was
an incredibly powerful item, yet Matthew was a little weirded out. The seed was great for the ladies, but not for
men. However, Lola had already returned to her room, so Matthew had no choice but to take the gift.
