A Mortal’s Medicinal Elixirs

Chapter 17 The End of Wrights Family’s Case

William told everyone to back off before opening the jar lid. The repulsive smell touched the tip of his nose, forcing him to hold his breath and pour the dog’s blood into it; the body was then soaked in the black liquid. Next, he closed the lid and pasted a newly written talisman on it. The remaining jars were dug out and handled in the same manner. Lastly, they were moved to the mountain base in a car altogether,

By the time they dug out the jars, night had painted the sky dark. William asked the workers to dig a thirty–foot–deep pit in a secluded area to bury the jars. Once they filled up the pit, it was already 8.00PM, and the workers were all in. Anjur bought them off with three hundred bucks per person to prevent their deeds from reaching outsiders‘ ears.

After the workers left. William piped up. “This place is safe now. You can bring in the people tomorrow. I should get going for another appointment.”

“William, just stay for the night. I’ve booked a hotel room for you.” Aidan stopped him.

William waved his hand. “It’s fine. It’s an important business, so I gotta go.”

Since William insisted on leaving. Aidan sent him to the train station. William was at case now that the Wrights problem was settled. He returned home, only to see the guilt–stricken Dominic and Diego kneeling right in front of the tree. It had been a day, and they were dog–tired. The pale–faced men seemed. to be collapsing at any time soon.

Ignoring them. William treated Melisenna and opened up Mia’s meridians. By then, it was past midnight, and he was annoyed by the noise outside, so he told them to leave by claiming that the spruce dryad had forgiven them.

A wave of relief showered the two men as they thanked profusely and left. The Barrett Family became a formidable existence that they would never mess with.

The long day had sapped William of his strength, so he forwent his training and tucked in his bed just like

that.

The next day, a call from the headmaster of Halivaara High woke him up. With utmost manner, the headmaster first praised Mia’s academic intelligence and voiced out his wish to transfer her to the best elite class in school. The twenty students in the elite class were taught by the best teachers at Halivaara High. The class itself proved the students‘ potential to be in the top five in the whole nation.

“Thank you, but Mia’s not feeling well these days. It will take her a while to recover before returning to school,” said William.

“No problem.”

The call ended when he smelled something nice. He checked on the time, and it was noon.

“William, lunch is ready!” shouted Mia outside the door.
