A Man Like None Other

Upon seeing Hartwin step forward, Maxence quickly dropped his frivolous demeanor and respectfully said, “I, Maxence, am honored to meet you, Mr. Bellamy.”

“Is your father, Sylvain, doing well?” asked Hartwin.

“My father is doing well. He often fondly reminisces about Mr. Bellamy and frequently talks about the friendship you two shared,” Maxence exclaimed.

“Ha, friendship, my foot. Your dad is such a petty man with a lot of insecurities. Every time we sparred, if he lost, he’d act like it was no big deal on the surface. But behind the scenes, he’d be seething with anger. So much so that he ultimately resorted to practicing forbidden arts, hoping to surpass me through such means. In the end, he was banished to Medicine God Island. Speaking of which, I do bear some responsibility for the current state of your father.” Hartwin sighed.

“Mr. Bellamy, you don’t need to blame yourself. Without you, my father wouldn’t have reached Medicine God Island or achieved what he has now. Maybe this is fate-after all, one cannot defy destiny…” Maxence surprisingly offered comfort to Hartwin.

“Fate?” Hartwin let out a bitter laugh. “Yes, this is fate, something that’s destined. Everything, everything is preordained.”

“Mr. Bellamy, there’s no need for you to pass any tests. I will personally arrange for a spirit ship to escort you to Medicine God Island.”

Maxence knew that with Hartwin’s capabilities, solving the complex medical mysteries listed on the Doctor-Searching List would be a breeze.

After all, Hartwin was a Supreme Alchemist, an entity even more powerful than his father.
