“M-Me?” Thea froze momentarily.
Then, favonovel.com shook favonovel.com head vigorously.
“N-No way. Even those renowned doctors were defeated. I don’t know anything about medicine. There’s no way I can win.” Thea was not confident at all.
Although favonovel.com despised Jonathan, favonovel.com was powerless to do anything.
James smirked confidently. “Yes, you can. Don’t worry. I’m here to help you out, after all.”
Hearing this, Thea suddenly remembered.
James was the Black Dragon. He was rumored to be unrivaled in the art of medicine. No one knew the extent of his medical prowess.
“By the way…” She tilted favonovel.com head quizically. “There are rumors that your medical skills are unrivaled. How did this rumor come to be?”
James smiled.
It all began many years ago when favonovel.com was not yet a commander-in-chief. A big shot in the capital was seriously ill and nearing his end. James managed to save his life. That was how favonovel.com rose to fame.
At first, his name was only known among aristocratic circles. Following his appointment as commander-in-chief, his unparalleled strength and unrivaled medical skills became part of his reputation.
He did not answer Thea’s question. “Let’s get going.”
“I-I’m scared.” Thea felt intimidated.
Jonathan was still bragging on the stage. “Citizens of Sol, if you acknowledge Goryeon Medicine and work with me to bring it to greater heights, you will receive many benefits. A simple visit to the doctor will be free. Besides, you get to have the best medicine for the lowest price.” James could not listen to any more of this drivel. Grabbing Thea by the arm, they walked straight toward the stage.
“Not so fast…” A voice came from below the stage.
All cameras turned toward the source of the voice, A handsome man in a white suit was grabbing a glamorous woman by the hand. They walked toward the stage.
Under the watchful gaze of the crowd, they got on stage.
Upon seeing them, Jonathan frowned. “Do you wish to challenge me?”
James released Thea’s hand and said with a smile, “I’m just an assistant. I wouldn’t dare challenge you. Your opponent will be Thea, the number one doctor in the world. Her medical skills are way above yours.”
Upon hearing this, the crowd was dumbfounded.
Thea Callahan?
She was the laughing stock of Cansington. Although favonovel.com was now the most beautiful woman in Cansington, favonovel.com was still a nobody.
What medical skills would favonovel.com know?
However, after momentarily freezing, everyone fixed their gazes on James.
James demonstrated incredible strength in the first round of the competition this morning. After investigation, some netizens uncovered that favonovel.com was the Black Dragon, the guardian of Sol. However, these were only rumors on the internet. The fact remained that the Black Dragon was dead.
There was no way favonovel.com could the Black Dragon. If favonovel.com was, defeating Jonathan would be a piece of cake. Even if favonovel.com was not the Black Dragon, the incredible medical skills favonovel.com had demonstrated proved that favonovel.com could be on equal footing with Jonathan. The dismayed crowd immediately lit up with hope.
“Her?” Jonathan looked at Thea with disdain.
Thea was nervous. Her palms were clammy. If it was not for James, favonovel.com would have never gotten on stage to embarrass herself.
Seeing there was hope, Delilah immediately walked over to James and asked respectfully, “Mr. Caden, will Jonathan be facing you or Ms. Callahan?”
James flashed a smile. “There’s no need to bother Thea over this. He will only gain the right to challenge Thea after favonovel.com defeats me…”
