Chapter 618 - Arthurious And Blackie
The little black goat was breathing heavily while resting on his arms, he gently deposited it over the cold metallic table, as the boy admired the fanciness of the room.
"What\'s your name?" wondered Frank.
"M-My name is Arthurious…" said the boy.
"(He seems to not want to tell me his after name… Well, that\'s fine.)" thought Frank.
"Please, can you do something for Blackie? You got any medicine?" asked the boy.
"Medicine alone won\'t do; I have to first check him well and then give him a diagnosis." Said Frank.
"A diagnosis?" asked Arthurious.
"Don\'t worry, it will be fine, it won\'t take long… Ruby, comfort him." said Frank.
"Okay…" Ruby said, as she suddenly turned into her humanoid form startling the blonde boy.
"Uwah! W-What the…? You can do that?" asked the boy.
"Hug!"
The little dragon girl hugged the little boy, calming him down, but this only made him more embarrassed than anything.
"W-What are you doing?! T-This is a serious situation!" he said.
"Calm down…" said Ruby, petting Arthurious head gently.
"Sniff… Blackie…" cried Arthurious, while being hugged by Ruby, he looked at his pet.
Frank quickly began to work, his eyes were faster than Arthurious could had imagined, and so was his mind, sharp and precise, in mere seconds he quickly began to discern what the black goat was going through.
One of his horns were broken down, and it was bleeding intensively, he immediately tried to stop the hemorrhage with magic, healing the wound itself, but magic wouldn\'t come out so easily, the laws of he world were blocking him from using external powers.
He quickly brought Ginseng instead, as the large radish turned into its small form, resembling a cute walking radish that could now float too, reaching up to the goat and extending its roots around its black horn, coiling around them, and stopping the bleeding while slowly healing it.
"Ah…! I didn\'t knew pets could do that…" Arthurious looked with surprise.
"This is Ginseng, it is my second monster pet, he likes to help out people." Said Frank.
"Ooohh…"
The little Ginseng greeted Arthurious with a low groan.
Frank quickly discovered several things on Blackie\'s body while he was inspecting it, one of them was that his body was covered in wounds, bruises, slashes, and even burnt wounds.
The left front leg and the right back leg also had slightly cracked bones, and the there was a big hole near the left side of its body, which was not bleeding but that seemed to be bad.
Blackie might be in the verge of dying.
Frank\'s mind flashed with quick thoughts, he told Ginseng to bathe the goat with healing magic to see if anything could recover.
"Ooohh!"
FLASH!
Ginseng suddenly harbored a part of Frank\'s original healing abilities, Life Magic and Lifeblood Bestowal in specific, the two quickly combined together and began to infuse Blackie with life energy, some of the smaller wounds closed and healed, however, the big wounds were taking a bit of a while, but only a few minutes of waiting might end up in the goat\'s doom.
Frank needed a more immediate solution, he opened the system tab, invisible to the boy in front of him, and quickly brought a few items for coins.
Ding!
[You\'ve exchanged 800 Coins]
[You acquired 96 Coins Back]
[You purchased the item [Healing Grass Powder (Adult-Class)] x5]
[You purchased the item [Pure White Healing Leather (Adult-Class)] x5]
[You purchased the item [Medicinal Thread (Adult-Class)] x5]
[You purchased the item [Cauterized Medicinal Needle (Adult-Class)] x5]
[You purchased the item [Bone-Restructuring Tonic (Adult-Class)] x5]
Suddenly, a bunch of items materialized in front of Frank\'s hands, surprising the boy in front of him as his eyes flashed with surprise and amusement.
"Wow…"
Frank quickly got to work, using the powder, he poured them over the open wounds, making the goat cry a bit in pain, as the wounds began to itch a lot.
After that, he used the thread and the needle to close all the wounds that were open, and later, used the leather to wrap them up. The entire goat ended being wrapped in many bandages because it had wounds all over.
And as for the cracked bones, Frank gave it three healing tonics, which had the ability to regenerate the body by hastening the metabolism, the cracked bons might take a while to regenerate though… maybe not months, but days.
And lastly, he gave Blackie the Bone-Restructuring Tonic to hasten this process even more.
"I think it should be fine for now, but Blackie needs to rest… I don\'t feel like your pet would be safe with your house if your siblings are bullying it…" said Frank.
"B-But I promise I will leave him inside my room…" said Arthurious.
"That won\'t do… For now, he\'ll stay in here, and recover. You can come visit him every day." Said Frank.
"I-In here? But…" said the boy.
"Don\'t worry, leave it to me, I am an expert after all. I know I can help him recover, you have to trust me, Arthurious." Said Frank.
"O-Okay… I trust you… But promise me…" said the boy.
"I do… Don\'t worry, come with me, I will show you the room Blackie will stay." Said Frank.
Frank brought Blackie and Arthurious into another room where he would leave hospitalized pets and left him resting over a comfortable cushion.
"For now this should be more than enough, I will feed him every day, so don\'t worry about that. Now, let\'s go to the fees… You gave me around two thousand coins… That\'ll do for most of the costs, and… I suppose it can also pay the hospitalization days… Here, you got two hundred for you left." Said Frank, quickly giving the boy his bag with coins, now it was way lighter than before.
The boy smiled as he felt relieved.
"Thanks…" he sighed.
"No problem, it\'s my job…" said Frank.
