An Understated Dominance (Dustin Rhys)

Ten minutes later, Dustin waved his hand. More than a dozen silver needles lifted from Callan’s body and returned to his pouch in an orderly manner.

His mystical pure energy instantly vaporized the contaminated blood on each needle, which essentially served as an alternative form of sterilization.

As the needles were withdrawn, a peculiar suction force drew the toxins rapidly from Callan’s body. Dark blood began flowing from where the needles had been applied. This thick, black liquid gave off a putrid stench, and the sight was deeply unsettling.

Grace and Sadie instinctively stepped backward. They were unwilling to risk even the slightest contact with the toxic discharge.

After all, this plague was unlike anything they had encountered before. Even with such a skilled doctor like Dustin present, neither woman dared take unnecessary chances.

The dark blood seeping from Callan’s body began to lighten and gradually turned deep red before finally returning to its usual color.

His fever-racked body cooled to normal temperature while his labored breathing settled into a steady, peaceful rhythm. All signs indicated that the plague had been successfully contained.

“He’s out of danger for now,” Dustin said. ” But the toxin really did a number on him. He’ll likely remain unconscious until tomorrow morning.”

“Just getting him back from the brink is a miracle. The other doctors I consulted all said it was hopeless,” Sadie said with a sigh.

“Mr. Rhys possesses unmatched medical skills. If he can’t cure this plague, then no one else can.” Grace was quick to sing his praises.

“I appreciate the compliments, but you still need to pay my consultation fee,” Dustin said with a faint smile.
