Landon froze for a bit in shock before preparing his mental state.

It looks like he was about to meet a very difficult patient.

With that, all 6 doctors, including Landon... walked into the patient's room and were immediately met with screams.

"You fools! I want meat, not vegetables!

Go get me some now!!!!"

Pap.

A pillow flew towards one of the women in the room, but Landon caught it swiftly.

"Mr. Andrew, even though you're a patient, we do not tolerate hitting or throwing objects at others.

Please behave yourself!"

The round-faced cruddy man curled his plumped lips in disdain and pain at Landon.

"And who are you?

What business is it to you?

Can't you see that I'm disciplining my wife?

Ahhhh.... Dammit! It still hurts like hell!

Where are your stupid doctors?!!!"

Landon squinted his eyes while keenly scrutinizing the overweight man before him.

In this era, it was actually very rare to find someone as overweight as he was.

Landon had a hunch but chose to personally look at the symptoms displayed before giving his final thoughts.

"Excuse me, but could you all wait outside and give us space?

Nurse Julia, please take them to the waiting lounge on the other side of the floor.

Don't worry. When we are through, we will send for you both."

The women, who now looked very haggard but nodded while trying to hide their happiness.

Serving such a person day and night wasn't easy.

They were so worn out that they genuinely needed a good night's rest.

.

Their family was initially on a trip to enjoy and experience the wonders of Baymard.

But who would've known that just when they were close to arriving at their destination, some strange illness would befall their husband?

As for their children, they left them at the hotel to do their own thing and enjoy themselves while they stayed and took care of Andrew.

Secretly, they wished that these Doctors would keep him in the hospital, moving them free back in the hotel.

Because before this, even though their husband had always been temperamental, it wasn't this bad.

This was a whole new level.

Maybe it was the pain that made him like this, which in turn drove them to insanity.

They were fed up and tired.

It's been 3 days since they had carried out several tests.

And just as planned, they were here again to find out if they could remove the pain altogether.

Even they found it strange.

Why did their husband not want to cure himself completely but only take away the pain?

Additionally, his body was becoming a little bit disgusting because white purse would ooze out from time to time from the tiny white dots around his swells.

What if that white liquid could spread something to them?

They secretly wanted the whole thing to go away.

But their husband seemed to want otherwise.

Was there something he knew that he wasn't telling them?

.

With the women gone, Landon looked at the X-ray again before placing the folder away and facing Andrew, who was constantly screaming and biting his lip in pain.

"Mr. Andrew, you requested that we only take the pain away.

Why?"

Andrew, who was in pain, let out a stream of air and forced himself to smirk arrogantly.

"Heh. Isn't the reason obvious?

Oh, I forgot. People like you would never know.

Only people like me who have seen the world would know why."

"_"

Landon looked at him and felt it funny.

Even though the guy was in so much pain, he was still able to belittle him, as if he was better than him.

This guy's ego was the size of the moon!

But, since he was now a doctor, he could only keep calm and allow this guy to lash out through the pain.

And his silence seemed to give Andrew even more confidence.

"You know. I used to be like you all, very ignorant about the things of the world.

But after visiting Morgany 4 years ago, I saw a new trend that only the rich can afford.

No... even some of the rich weren't qualified to enjoy the trend.

I'm serious! Even the Monarchs there had tried to get chosen but had failed.

So only a handful had been successful."

Everyone looked at Andrew in confusion.

What does that have to do with his illness?

"You fools still don't understand?

Ugh! It's like teaching a baby with you all.

Look! Over the years, I had tried to be chosen. But always ended up failing.

Now, a miracle has occurred, and I have been chosen.

So how can I give it up?

It's said that when a man's legs are weakened by the swells, his genital parts are fuller, better nourished and more vigorous!

You may not know it, but the trend is very widespread in Morgany because it was rare for one to be chosen... And because it gave a man power below.

Additionally, all those chosen were all rich!

So any woman who saw a man with the trend instantly knew he was rich.

In fact, some women swore to only be with these sorts of men.

Having the trend opened doors for one, and one could even get invitations to some powerful associations in Morgany.

So now, do you see how stupid your question was?"

O_O

Landon almost fell from disbelief.

He had heard that people of this time made stupid mistakes because there was no sound medical science.

But this was ridiculous!

And people actually believed this?

.

After talking, examining and letting Andrew lash out at him, Landon left Andrew to one of the nurses and briefly stepped out with the doctors, who were now more confused than ever.

Of course, they didn't believe that trend-thing to be true since they were now learned and even saw some issues from the X-ray.

"Doctor Landon, at first, we thought the Patient might be facing some sort of inflammatory Arthritis disease, like rheumatoid arthritis or psoriatic arthritis.

But the white hard crystal deposits around the swells show otherwise.

These white chalky crystals also oozed white liquids out when we examined it further."

"Additionally, in this case... the swelling of the big toe seemed to have triggered the swelling of other regions on the body, which was too bizarre."

Everyone felt perplexed.

What exactly was plaguing this Man?
