At first, Doctor Snee wanted to talk to Lothur to give some pointers to this youth as such an individual did not seem to have a promising future in the Frost family.

Aside from the city rumors, Doctor Snee was sure that if Lothur remained in that organization, the day would come when even the best doctor in the province would be unable to save him.

And as someone concerned about the survival of his patients, this local doctor could not ignore the situation without at least talking to Lothur.

However, after hearing from his assistant about her unexpected encounter with Lothur in the Thousand and One Medicines store, this man had gained an entirely different interest.

As a doctor, it was his job to save or improve the quality of life of his patients. However, his job was also to study and learn new things about his profession.

So, knowing that Lothur had mysteriously recovered from a near-death condition that should have kept him bedridden for weeks, this man could not help but want to study this case.

Perhaps he could learn something new from Lothur and take a step further in mastering his techniques. Or even if that did not happen, if that young man had some sort of healing ability, such a doctor would be more than happy to accept him as a disciple!

With that in mind, he finished what he was doing, giving a medicinal pot to his patient before finally escorting such a person to the exit.

"Well, until next time, Doctor Snee." That individual shook his head at that fellow before noticing Lothur's presence in that place and leaving.

Pa!

After the door of that place closed, Doctor Snee looked at Lothur and waved one of his hands, calling him to the office.

Seeing this, Lothur immediately followed the man's instructions, quickly settling into one of the chairs in front of the man's desk.

That office was relatively like what Lothur expected for a doctor's workplace. There was a place for the patient and the doctor to talk face to face, while a large stretcher was in one corner of the room, along with various strange utensils on side shelves.

Right next to one of those pieces of furniture, near the large stretcher, Sofie was cleaning the place where the previous patient had used it.

"So, Lothur..." The voice of that figure with the bulging belly and black mustache sounded once again as he watched the curious young man looking at that office. "You must be curious as to why I invited you here, right?"

"Hmmm." Lothur made a sound of agreement as he watched that place.

As he focused his attention on that man sitting across the table from him, Lothur quickly saw Doctor Snee's status.

[Name: Kendrick Snee]

[Cultivation: level 12]

[STR: ??] [COM: ??] [DEX: ??] [AGI: ??]

'Hmm, this person is just like Viktoria. He is at the 2nd stage...' Lothur pondered this, beginning to understand the limitations of such a system's feature. 'Apparently, I can see the physical attributes of my 'targets' when they are at the same stage as mine.'

'One stage up, and I can only see the level, and two, I can't see anything...'

'That must be it.' He thought of his mother-in-law, who should be at the 3rd stage, a Transcendent cultivator.

But before he could get angry with Mabel, that fellow's voice caught Lothur's attention again. "Well, let's talk about it. But since you're here, why don't you let me check on your condition while we talk?"

"Your recent trauma was significant, so I want to know if there are any sequels after your sudden recovery..."

"Oh? Fine by me, but I'm out of coins to pay for medical treatment..." Lothur laughed, not disagreeing with this offer. "But you can send the bill to the Frost family if you want."

"Uh, you don't have to worry about that..." Doctor Snee stood up and waved for Lothur to climb onto that stretcher that Sofie had already finished cleaning.

"Take off your shirt too, please."

And promptly, Lothur did as he should, sitting on that stretcher shirtless, facing the doctor in front of him and with the violet-haired woman beside him.

Sofie's eyes then sharpened as she observed Lothur's torso, sensing that he seemed to have much more prominent muscles now than a few days ago. 'That...'

'His muscles developed after a recovery? What a bizarre thing!'

Doctor Snee also realized this point but said nothing about it to Lothur. Instead, he began to advise this young man as he examined his patient's condition. "Lothur, what do you think of the Frost family?"

"I mean, I don't want to get involved in your affairs, but you almost died twice in a few days... Don't you think you are following a dangerous path in that place?"

"I've heard rumors of all kinds in this world, and after witnessing the previous situation, I couldn't help but worry..." He remembered cases of powerful but completely insane cultivators who sometimes beat people to death for no reason.

Lothur understood what that doctor's concern was and said. "What I think about this family doesn't matter. What can I do? It's not like they're going to let me go anyway."

"But you shouldn't worry about the previous situation." He thought this doctor was misjudging Annaliese's figure and promptly tried to repair that woman's reputation. "Previously, I angered my sister-in-law in a way that I shouldn't have, and she ended up losing control of her anger..."

"But that is not a recurring situation. Annaliese and I are good friends."

"Friends?" That assistant looked at Lothur with strangeness in her eyes. 'Can you call that a friend these days?' Sofie remembered how Annaliese looked after she had stained her own clothes and fists with Lothur's blood.

"Really? You don't have to worry. I naturally keep confidential everything my patients tell me during consultations. So, if you have something to say..."

"No, I really don't."

"Sigh..."

"All right, let's not talk about it anymore." That fellow sighed, sensing that Lothur was trying not to talk about his situation in that family. "Anyway, have you ever thought about becoming a doctor?"

"In my profession, we naturally need to cultivate spiritual energy to have the best skills. However, many mortals in this world need care as often or even more than us cultivators."

"And for many diseases and conditions common among mortals, ordinary skills that don't need spiritual cultivation are enough for a good doctor to grow..."

"So? Why don't you become my apprentice? That way, you can at least build your own path in case something goes wrong with your other plans." He suggested this after noticing that Lothur's body still had no sign of cultivation.

Not only that, apart from the improvement in muscle quality, something this doctor did not understand where it had come from, nothing, in particular, had caught his attention in Lothur's body.

So, he had already ruled out the possibility that Lothur might have a helpful skill in medicine.

In any case, since he had already talked to that point, it did not harm him to propose that to Lothur since this young man indeed had good willpower, something useful in any profession.

"That..." Because of this unexpected proposal, Lothur did not know what to say to that man. 'I need to find a source of coins in this world, but I don't think medicine suits me.'

'If I can learn such a thing to use in my personal affairs, it wouldn't be bad. But working with something like that doesn't interest me.'

Spiritual Doctors did what other professionals, especially alchemists, could not solve with their skills, which was basically to take care of complex problems in the human body.

In short, every resource existing in this world had ways of affecting the being that consumed them. But let's say that resource 'A' could solve problem 'C.' That might work in certain situations, but what if there was a condition 'B' getting in the way of that resource solving the problem?

What if ten conditions were getting in the way of such a thing?

That was the point that made the medical profession exist in this world. That was one of the few professions that could solve conditions hindering unique resources from doing their job.

Think about what had happened to Lothur. If this young man had been an average person, even using high-quality recovery pills would not have been enough to cure him. Instead, someone would need to restore his body to a certain state, which was necessary for resources to work.

On the other hand, sometimes cultivation resources could have adverse effects. For example, many resources could significantly increase the 'turbulence' of spiritual energy in a cultivator's body.

But if such a person was injured, using a resource that had the potential to heal him but had such 'turbulence' could be a big problem.

That's why doctors are essential in this world!

But as important a profession as it was, Lothur did not think he had the suitable characteristics for him to become a doctor. So, he could not help but feel that it was not a good thing for him to focus on that at the moment.

He thought of something and then said. "Doctor Snee..."
