《Epic of The Demonic Sage 》Chapter 129: Considering
Advertisement
Lucius couldn't help but raise his eyes upon hearing the cost. Six thousand gold coins were a rather large amount that even he barely had right now. He was now wondering whether this would be viable or not.
"Hmm, I'd like to see Finch first if you don't mind," Lucius spoke.
He reckoned that seeing her actual condition might help him better and give him a proper idea of what was the actual problem. Lucius definitely had a lot more knowledge than most people in this world.
He thought that he might be able to find a better solution to the problem, which might even be cheaper than the current one. If it really did turn out to be six thousand gold coins, he may need to double think this.
"Sure, Young Lord Asher. You can come with us to see her." Gellor agreed right away.
To him and his companion, Lucius coming to check up on their companion was nothing but assuring them of getting the money for the treatment. Thankfully, what they did not know would not hurt them… for now.
"When do you want to visit her, Lord Asher?" Gellor questioned.
Lucius thought over it and remembered his schedule. There was still a little more than an hour left until his lessons with John. He was originally going to spend this time in reading in the library, but he reckoned it could be used for this.
"Let's go there right away," Lucius answered.
"As you wish, Lord Asher," Gellor replied straight away, feeling content at the responsiveness of Lucius.
Gellor and his companion left the mansion, and Lucius followed behind them on horseback. They soon reached a small hospital that was located about ten minutes away from the mansion's location.
Lucius had seen this hospital many times before, as it was on the main path that led to the mansion.

'Doesn't Healer Delia work here too?' Lucius remembered.
The resident healer of the Inanis family was Healer Delia, while the one who had taken care of Lucius when he was paralyzed was Healer Peron. Healer Peron was called from another town to take care of Lucius and did not work in this city particularly.
The only reason why healer Peron was called instead of Healer Delia was because Healer Delia's gift worked on cuts and open wounds, while Healer Peron's gift worked on internal wounds.
He was also knowledgeable about the internal injuries along with paralysis and thus was the preferred person for the job. Healer Delia usually did not have much work in the Inanis family as there was rarely anyone getting injured, except for the guards.
Thus, the Count had permitted her to work at her clinic and the city hospital. The clinic was even closer to the mansion than the hospital and was often more busy than the hospital itself. People only went to the hospital if they were severely injured and needed long term bedside care.
Lucius and the rest came to a stop at the entrance of the hospital and saw the line of people waiting there.
"We can just go in since we are here to visit," Gellor said.
He took the lead and directly entered through the secondary door and the rest followed him. Lucius did the same and upon entering saw a similar look to the hospital he had seen in the Dowland city.
There was a desk at the front and a male receptionist was sitting there. Though looking at it Lucius could tell that the man was a nurse as well, or perhaps a junior healer. The difference between a nurse and a healer was also uniform in this world.

If a person had a healing type gift and they wanted to enter the field of medicine, they would become a healer. While if a person did not have a healing gift and still wanted to enter the field of medicine, they would become a nurse instead.
"We're here to see Finch," Gellor spoke to the receptionist.
"Oh, it's you guys. You can go ahead then, you should know where she is by now." The receptionist replied.
It was evident that Gellor and the rest had come here enough times that the workers here were now used to seeing them. Gellor simply nodded his head and turned in the direction of the inner wards.
"Please come with me, Young lord Asher." Gellor spoke.
They then walked for a few meters before entering one of the smaller wards to the right. In there, Lucius could see about six beds and a couple of healers working on the patients. There were also a few nurses taking care of the patients.
The entry of several people was quickly noticed by the healers inside and it seemed like they recognized Gellor and his companions too.
"Young Lord Asher?" An Old Woman's voice spoke.
"Greetings, Healer Delia." Lucius spoke.
"Why have you come here? Are you sick?" Delia instantly went into concerned mode.
She was the resident healer of the Inanis family and thus needed to care for them first. If she was called in the middle of treating someone else, she would probably leave right away as well. Thus she wondered why Lucius himself had come here, when he could have simply called for her.
"Oh, I'm fine myself. Actually, I'm here to see someone else." Lucius replied.
"You are, who?" Delia asked, but then her gaze went to Gellor and his companions. "Is it Finch?" She guessed.
"Indeed, healer Delia." Lucius replied.
Delia furrowed her brows but did not question him. She simply moved the curtains of the bed to her right and revealed the person who was lying in there.
It was a woman who seemed to be in her mid twenties and Lucius recognized her to be none other than Finch. But her current condition was indeed quite bad, as Gellor had stated. There were bandages all over her body that were red with blood, and burns could also be seen on her limbs.

D Days
Dragons were the apex predators of the magical world, feared for their strength and intelligence. They stood at the pinnacle of creation, until mankind fueled by fear and envy banded together and struck them down as the greatest threat to the continued existence of their kingdoms. Peace reigned for many years across the continent, until an accident in the Magocracy of Ken turned one of the most powerful mage lords into a power mad lich. Raising an undead army and creating a cult that worshipped him like a god, he cut a bloody swath across the continent in a bid to create his own domain. A great alliance consisting of the Kingdom of Light, the Magocracy of Ken, the Forest Kingdom of the Elves, the Mountain Kingdom of the Dwarves, and the Wild Tribes of the West rose up and the high lich was defeated, his armies destroyed, and his cult scattered. Still recovering, the world is a constant state of petty power struggles and back biting between nations. Border disputes are common and the constant fighting has taken a toll on the populations of all the nations. Of course, none of this has much bearing on the everyday life of a an ordinary young orphan in the care of a Temple run home. Or does it? *Current Word Count as of 8/4/18: 59,415 I am shooting for at least one update a week. Also, if you see any mistakes let me know and I will fix them. Cover by!*
