The Invincible Mercenary King (by Matt Watt)

Chapter 27

The members of the Zabel family, along with Charlie, William, and others, quickly turned their heads to discover that Haylan had departed.

Once more, everyone was left stunned.

“What is this guy’s identity? He doesn’t seem interested in money, and he didn’t even leave his name. Could he have come here with the intention of performing good deeds?”

Everyone looked at each other in confusion and bewilderment.

“Hurry! Go find him and bring back the divine healer today!” Shawn said with a note of urgency in his voice.

He thought to himself, “His medical skills are incredible. He has the ability to revive people from the brink of death.

“If we could become friends with him, everyone in the Zabel family could have an additional chance at life.

“However, since we didn’t even know his name, how could we possibly become friends with him?”

“Divine healer!”

Upon hearing Shawn’s words, all the Zabel family members present quickly reacted and rushed out to find Haylan.

“Divine healer? No, that’s my master… Master!”

William’s expression also changed, and he followed the Zabel family members to search for Haylan with the intention of becoming his apprentice.

Haylan’s medical abilities had truly impressed him, and he was now thoroughly convinced.

The Eighteen Needles of Exorcism that Haylan had demonstrated left him in complete awe.

After witnessing Haylan’s remarkable medical skills, he was utterly impressed and eager to become his apprentice, eager to learn all he could from such a gifted healer.

William’s words elicited a stunned reaction from Sterling, Charlie, Shawn, and the rest, who were taken aback by his sudden declaration.

They thought to themselves, “Has William Hawk lost his mind?”

“How could he refer to that youngster as his master?

“Shawn, Lucy, who was it that saved me?” asked Dominic..

“It was a very handsome man who came to your rescue. After he saved you, he left, and we still don’t know his name,” replied Lucy.

“This young man has principles. I offered him two million dollars as consultation fees, but he refused, stating that saving lives is his duty,” remarked Shawn.

He gazed at the door and let out a sigh. “In a society that is so consumed by materialism, there are very few young doctors like him. He’s a breath of fresh air.”

As he listened to their descriptions of Haylan, Dominic was taken aback.

It was rare for Dominic to hear Shawn speak so highly of a young man. He was even curious about Haylan and desired to see him in person.

“Shawn, is the young doctor’s medical prowess truly as remarkable as you say?” he inquired.

“Dad, I saw it with my own eyes. He revived you from the brink of death with just a few needles. I’ve

never witnessed such extraordinary medical skills before!”

Shawn nodded solemnly and stated, “I believe that this person’s medical abilities are on par with those of Maxwell Rivers from the Divine Healers Sect.”

Once again, Dominic was left stunned.

Shawn was his most successful and dependable son, but he was also quite conceited and held himself in high regard.

Despite his usual arrogance, Shawn’s constant praise of Haylan made it evident that he possessed remarkable medical skills and had high moral character.

“Shawn, may I ask how old this young doctor is?” inquired Dominic with curiosity.

“He’s around 28 years old,” replied Shawn.

“28 years old, what a shame. I was hoping Lucy could get to know him better,” lamented Dominic with regret.

Both Shawn and Lucy were left speechless by Dominic’s remark.

Suddenly, Dominic clapped his hands with excitement and exclaimed, “Lucy, your sister doesn’t have a boyfriend overseas, does she?”

“When’ your sister returns, we absolutely must introduce her to this divine healer!”

“Dad, what’s going through your mind?” frowned Shawn.

“Based on what you’ve told me, this young divine healer possesses exceptional moral character and unparalleled medical abilities. He’s a rare talent and would be a perfect match for our granddaughter, Grace. It would be an ideal pairing!”

Dominic smiled and exclaimed, “Grace has been overseas for quite some time, and we haven’t seen much of her in the past year. When she returns this time, we must find her the perfect match so that I can have a wonderful grandson as soon as possible!”

Shawn and Lucy were left speechless by Dominic’s sudden determination.

They thought to themselves, “Dominic seems to have suddenly become a matchmaker. He’s now fixated on Grace and Haylan. Could he be trying to match them up?”

Carrying a basket of fruit, Haylan made his way straight to the pediatric ward.

He soon arrived at his sister’s hospital room. Upon pushing open the door, he immediately saw Floris holding a three-year-old girl while sitting on the hospital bed. Her face was filled with worry, and she looked exhausted.

After eight years, Floris appeared even more haggard than before, with yellowed skin and a frail frame, looking completely different from how she was eight years ago. It was evident to him that she was malnourished.

Despite her altered appearance, Haylan immediately recognized his sister upon seeing her..

“Sis.”

Haylan entered the room carrying a basket of fruit, and his gaze fell upon his painfully thin sister,

Floris.

She wore plain clothes, and her shoes were worn out with patches on her clothes..

“Who are you?” ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Floris looked at Haylan with a puzzled expression and asked.

Suddenly, Floris’s face changed, and she immediately threw her arms around her brother, tears streaming down her face. “Haylan, is it really you?” she exclaimed.

Although it had been a long time since they had last seen each other, Floris recognized her little brother from eight years ago in Haylan’s features.

“Yes, it’s me. I’m back,” said Haylan with a smile, setting the basket down.

Floris was overwhelmed with joy and immediately set down her child before rushing over to embrace Haylan tightly, crying tears of happiness.

Finally, she released him, looking him up and down to ensure that he was doing well.

“When did you return, Haylan? Why didn’t you inform me?” she asked, brimming with excitement.

“You’ve grown taller and more handsome than before, but your skin seems darker than it used to be,” she remarked.

“I arrived two days ago. Hey, little one! Sis, what’s her name?”

Haylan grinned as he greeted the little girl in the hospital bed next to them.

The girl resembled Floris with her round cheeks and big eyes, looking like a porcelain doll.

However, due to malnutrition, she appeared thin, and her skin was yellowed, which broke Haylan’s heart.

“Let me introduce you. This is my daughter, Tracy.”

Floris came back to her senses and held her daughter while smiling at Haylan. “Say hello to your uncle, Tracy,” she said, prompting the little girl to greet him.

Tracy didn’t say anything and instead hid behind her mother, looking at Haylan timidly with a mix of caution and fear.

“Tracy, how did Mommy teach you? Why are you being impolite? Say hello to your uncle,” Floris scolded gently.

Despite her mother’s gentle admonition, Tracy still refused to come out from behind her, too afraid to approach Haylan.

“Tracy Hammond!” Floris’s face darkened slightly with anger.

Noticing that his sister was about to scold Tracy, Haylan quickly interjected, “Sis, please don’t treat Tracy like this,”

Tracy and I are meeting for the first time. It’s normal for her to be shy. She’ll become more comfortable around me once we get to know each other better,” Haylan said, attempting to ease the

tension.

Floris nodded apologetically. “I’m sorry. Tracy has always been shy since she was little.”

Haylan replied, “It’s all right. Once we become better acquainted, Tracy won’t be scared of me anymore.”

After greeting Tracy with a smile, Haylan expressed his concern and asked, “By the way, husband? Tracy has been sick and hospitalized. Why hasn’t he come to see her?”

As Haylan mentioned her husband, Floris’s expression became strained and a hint of sorrow flashed in her eyes.
