The Guardian's Sword

Chapter 185 Only those pharmaceutical tablet molds could make it so neat and
uniform. However, even precision machines had a hard time achieving that with
traditional patent herbal pills like pain—relieving pills. Sean was able to do it with
just some primitive tools.

Homer was so impressed.

“Mr. Lennon, you really are a miracle doctor.

“I have never heard of your medical skills nor of this medicine—making
technique.”

Homer closed the wooden box and put it down carefully. The surprise in his voice
was unconcealed.

“It's just a simple trick.” Sean cupped his chin in his hand as he frowned slightly.
Homer was puzzled to see Sean like this.

Now that the pill was ready, why did Sean still look sad?

Homer looked at the wooden box on the table and asked.

“Mr. Lennon, is there a problem? “What exactly does this pi“ do?” “It could get me
back on my feet.”

Homer's eyes instantly widened as soon as he said that.

He had rarely talked about Sean's disability since they met.

After all, it was Sean's flaw.

However, Homer had kept himself busy these days. He had also looked into
Sean's illness.

It was said that Willow had brought Sean to renowned doctors for two years
without any success.

As a doctor himself, Sean did not solve the issue, leading Homer to think that
Sean might never be able to get on his feet.

Homer was surprised to hear Sean say that.

It turned out that Sean could stand up, but he had been waiting for Lilac Heart
Weed to arrive.

“That's great! Mr. Lennon, what are you waiting for? “Consume it at once!” Homer
rubbed his hands together, happy for Sean. However, Sean picked up the
wooden box and slowly put it down again.

“It's not mature enough. The effects might not be as good as I need it to be.”
Sean had thought about that while working on the pill.

Everyone's body was resistant to medicines,

In layman“s words, it was the ability to adapt. For example, the weather in the
northeast region of Great Solaria was colder, so people there were generally
more tolerant of the cold than people elsewhere.

It was the same with medicine.

If Sean took this pill right now, he might stand up today, but it could unnecessarily
hinder his complete recovery in the future.

Even if he used herbs that were old enough next time, it might not make any
difference.

Therefore, Sean was a little torn right now.

It was his only chance.

“Well.”

Homer also had some knowledge about herbs. Homer pondered for a moment
before suggesting “Well then, Mr. Lennon, why don“t you put this pill away first?
“I'll have someone search for Lilac Heart Weed more than ten years old. The
Larson family's herb warehouse has no shortage of herbs.

“Give me some time to look for it. It's not too late for you to take it if I really can“t
find it. What do you think?”

Sean thought about it for a moment and nodded after all.

“That's all we can do for now.”

At night.

Sean went back to his room after finishing dinner. He no longer needed special
needle treatment, so he had free time.

Sean sat alone in the room, playing with the small wooden box.

He wanted to take the pill out and consume it. Then, he would resign himself to
fate. However, after much hesitation, Sean did not do it.

If the pill was not efficient enough, it would make his body resistant to future
doses.

Then he would be able to never get back on his feet as long as he lived.

If he could not even get up, how could he make Willow liappy or get even with
Blaze?

Therefore, Sean dared not gamble.

Homer and Hayden had to find herbs that were old enough.

“Whew!”

Scan put down the wooden box and looked out the window at the night scene in
the distance.

He slowly sorted out the things that happened these days in his mind.

It was his habit.

He had spent eight years in the army and was always ready for battle.

As a nine-star commander commanding millions of troops, there was no room
for carelessness.

One wrong move could cost tens of thousands of soldiers.

Therefore, Sean enjoyed sorting things out to make sure there were no mistakes
when he was alone.

Fion did not criticize Sean much about what happened today.

In the Quinn familys opinion, Sean overestimated his capabilities, and Old
Madam Quinn’s recovery had nothing to do with him.

What he did was nothing more than pretending to the Quinn family. 1

In the past, Fion would have yelled at Sean.

However, she only slightly criticized Sean at dinner.

After all, Sean paid for their cars and even the clothes and jewelry they wore.

It caused Fion to rein her nastiness in a bit.

Sean did not care about any of these things. What mattered to him was that he
intervened to save Old Madam Quinn and kept Willow's family alive.

Seeing Willow happy was already enough for Sean. Sean shook his head slightly
and stopped overthinking “Mr. Larson said Hayden didn't call the C/A. 1 “Then
who could it be?”

Sean was not stupid. He could see that Dino Quentin from the CIA had never
spoken to him.

However, he tried to help Sean.

Sean did not know him.

He must have helped Sean because someone asked him to.

The only government official Sean knew in River City was Hayden.

If it was not Hayden, who would it be?
