Chapter 66

With a strange expression, Hans watched Zich enter the building. Since they arrived at the Dracul estate, their battle against diseases continued all the way to Ospurin. At first, Hans really hated his work because he was afraid of the diseases and the patients horrifying appearances. Honestly, even now, Hans was not completely free of these feelings.

However, his sympathy and pity towards the patients increased over time. When he was unable to save the village, he was so sad that he wanted to burst out crying. And when he heard that there was hope of recovery, Hans worked harder than anyone else to stop the spread of diseases and aided patients. Therefore, all of Hans attention was now focused on Zichs words and the cure he supposedly knew.

Senior, whats up?

Snoc walked towards Hans. Using his earth powers, Snoc created earth barriers in infected areas and helped quarantine people. Snoc looked at the area where Hans was looking. Naturally, his stare followed the building Zich just entered.

Does Sir Zich have business to attend to?

Its because of the rumor.

Rumor. Hearing this word, Snocs eyes changed with a flicker of curiosity.

Do you think its real?

As if he was sharing a secret plan, Snoc whispered directly into Hans ears. When Snocs breath reached his ears, Hans jumped back and pushed Snoc away with a fierce glare.

What are you doing!

Seeing Hans reaction, Snoc scratched his cheek in embarrassment; he realized that breathing directly into another persons ear was rude.

Koo!

Nowem, who was on Snocs shoulder, bit Snocs ear as if to scold him. Hans stopped glaring at Snoc and after letting out a sigh, replied to Snocs question. I think theres a high possibility that Sir Zich is telling the truth. No matter how shicapricious Sir Zichs personality is, I dont think he is the type to lie about stuff like that.

Hans almost let it out that he thought Zich had a shitty personality. To his good fortune, it didnt seem like Snoc noticed.

Then is there really going to be a cure for this disease?

The rumor was that Zich knew the cure for Igram. Even Snoc had heard about Igram before. It spread multiple times throughout Suols history, and while people were drinking in the bar, it came up a few times in conversations; of course, it was not when the bars atmosphere was loud and lively but when there was a lot of fear and insecurity spreading among the miners.

The Igram disease was incomparably less deadly than the other infectious diseases spreading around the Dracul estate, but it was such a famous disease that even Snoc knew about it. And to know a cure for a disease like that was unheard of!

Don't spread this rumor around for now. You also know that the second son of Count Dracul is trying to silence this, right?

Even though they deeply trusted Zich, it was hard to believe that he found the cure for Igram. If word got out and Zich failed to produce the cure, the soldiers reactions would be full of despair and anger. By nature, people were more vulnerable to despair right after hope.

Yes, sir! Snoc replied confidently as he agreed with Hans reasoning.

Then lets continue our work. Im going to go help the soldiers, and you check if theres anything wrong with their behaviors

Hans closed his mouth. Zich got out of the building and headed off to a different place. The building Zich went in had been set aside for the cures clinical trials. Since the cure was so significant and precious, not many people knew about this place.

Hans quickly tried to gauze Zichs expression. Zichs expression was the same as usual: a face full of confidence, almost on the verge of arrogance. However, Zich didnt always make this expression. When things did not go according to his plan, he would frown or scrunch up his face; of course, compared to other people, his annoyed or mad expressions were very minimal.

However, there was no trace of any annoyance or frown on his face.

Thus!

He succeeded in finding the cure!

That was what Hans predicted.

Zich quickly looked around for Joachim. Like usual, Joachims sickly appearance and pained expression were enough to trick people into thinking that he was a patient.

Sir.

Yes?

Joachim had been intently glaring at the map with infected areas marked on them. He finally raised his head.

For what reason!

Joachim was about to ask Zich why he was here, but he jumped up after seeing Zichs confident smile.

Have you perhaps!

Yes, it is what we have been waiting for.

Lets go there right now!

Joachim placed all other thoughts out of his mind and followed Zich. If the cure worked, all of his problems would disappear at once. Zich and Joachim headed towards the building where clinical trials were taking place. Joachim silently pressured Zich on, and they walked extremely
