Doctor Eleanor kept a poker face after receiving the result of the spiritual reading. She also summoned her main beast partner, a Verdant Pulse Stag, an Epic rank beast to finalize the result, but she was inwardly disheartened—there was still no progress.
Doctor Eleanor was the hospital director of the Chambers Grand Hospital. She was obviously assigned to the Coma and Illness Wing. She managed to cure other patients through her beast pets but only Mia Hill was difficult to even determine the cause of the disease she had.
She was saddened by the result, but she knew she should not give up. She had also resorted to researching the cause of Mia’s condition by analysing her blood in different technologies and she believed it would only be a matter of ti before she could crack down the cause and co up with the cure.
Trying her best to hide her disappointnt, she turned around and glanced at Felix. She was about to tell him the result when she realized he was not waiting for it.
He was patiently waiting for their chance to have a private talk.
Staring at Felix’s eyes, she thought. Look at that boy’s gaze. It’s fiery. What does he want to talk about that he could barely contain his patience?
She smiled at him and said, "Where do you want to talk?"
Felix pondered for a while and replied, "If best, at your office."
Doctor Eleanor nodded and walked past them, saying, "Follow ."
Felix turned towards Krisha and was about to say sothing when Doctor Eleanor already walked quite fast.
Hence, he quickly followed her, believing Krisha would follow him.
...
When they arrived at the office, Felix turned around only to discover that Krisha did not follow him.
He was quite worried and thought. I’ll tell her the real reason later.
He closed the door and turned around, seeing Doctor Eleanor was already sitting on her chair, reading so papers.
Sensing his gaze, she said, "Speak."
Felix was silent for a while and said, "I think I have found a cure to my younger sister’s illness."
Doctor Eleanor froze. She remained in that state for a whole minute, leaving Felix hesitating whether to continue.
However, he knew he had to give her so ti to process what he had just said.
The mont Doctor Eleanor glared at him, he stuttered. "Y-You told us it’s called Sleeping Hollow Disease and it’s incurable, not what it is really about, right?
Then, I must tell you what I know about it for you to believe .
There is a mismatch between her soul capacity and her vessel strength."
Doctor Eleanor was stunned. Suddenly, everything slowly made sense.
She thought. So, that’s why there’s no problems on her blood analysis as well as other analysis on her physical aspect? The problem was from her soul?
H-How—
Her thoughts were interrupted mid-way after realizing sothing.
Since before, even in the S-grade cities, there are no beast pets that focus on soul healing. If we encounter a beast that damages the soul, it usually depends on the individual’s strength to protect themselves.
However, what if it’s a child? If what Felix was true, then it’s really possible that there was sothing wrong with her soul and her body’s compatibility.
Doctor Eleanor recalled the cause of the Sleeping Hollow Disease—more often than not, they were exposed to the aura of high rank beasts, such as Unique or Epic rank and above. There was also another theory claiming that those who suffered from Sleeping Hollow Disease, as long as they were cured, were guaranteed to beco a Beast Tar King.
There were many theories revolving around Sleeping Hollow Disease, but finding the cure was still more enigmatic.
Doctor Eleanor leaned back on her seat, exhausted from straining her brain.
In the end, she shut down her mind and glanced at Felix. "So, what is the cure?"
At the sa ti, Felix asked the Guide about the cure and relayed it to Doctor Eleanor.
"It’s called Four-Beast ridian Reforging Ritual
The cure requires components from different beast types to rebalance her body, mind, and spirit."
Felix raised his hand and showed four fingers.
"First, the Heart-Core Sap of a Red Ember Treant. It helps restore Mia’s vitality and reignites fading life-force.
It must be willingly given or extracted during a full moon. And the tree-type beast must be over 80 years old. It should be boiled into spirit broth and Mia should consu three drops daily for 7 days.
Second, the Brain Crystal of a Moonveil Silver Fox. It helps stabilize spiritual activity in her brain. It prevents soul dissociation.
It must be harvested after natural death or if better, willingly condensed by a contracted fox. It must remain intact, no cracks.
It must be grounded into powder and mixed with Treant Sap.
Third, the ridian Shell Dust of an Ancient River Tortoise. It reinforces spiritual pathways and prevents energy flow.
The shell fragnt is refined into dust and applied externally along her spine during ritual.
Lastly, the Dawnfeather Plu of a Suncrest Skylark. It anchors the soul to the body and prevents coma collapse.
It’s burned into incense and the smoke inhaled during the final stage of the ritual."
Doctor Eleanor nodded. "Proceed with the ritual."
"Yes, Doctor.
The Ritual Process will last for 9 days. For the first week, the Sap and Fox crystal mixture is administered and shell dust applied nightly..."
Felix continued to state the process of the ritual. Doctor Eleanor confidently noted on her mind.
Once Felix was finished, anxiously waiting for her response, she said in a grave tone, "I will try that. It doesn’t harm anyway. But the price is higher than you think."
Felix’s eyes widened. He stuttered. "H-How much?"
Doctor Eleanor instantly replied, "20 million credits for the beast materials alone."
Felix’s eyes widened. "That much?! I-I..."
Doctor Eleanor shook her head. "You don’t need to worry about the price, I will cover it for the anti.
If your ritual can really cure your sister, forget about paying the total fees, I’ll even reward you.
I’ll also contact the mayor for your contribution. This is a national contribution, you know. You’ll get rich if your ritual is proven to be the cure."
Felix’s eyes widened even more.
