Chapter 1078 Dillian's Fame and Divine Ability
While Minos went to settle his agenda alongside Lizzie, Abby, and Ruth, Dillian made his way through the central streets of the Dry City core until he reached the General Hospital.
After years at the command of this institution, he had become a renowned doctor not only in Dry City but throughout the northern region of the Central Continent.
After his advancement to the 7th stage, this man had become someone of no less fame than Minos, Abby, or Ruth. But, in fact, to some people, he was even more important than these young people due to his ability to improve the quality of life of his patients.
In the entire northern region of the Central Continent, Dillian was the only doctor able to regenerate lost body parts!
He had this divine ability previously thought possible only in Spiritual Saints or a medium-level grade-3 doctor. But even though he was only a low-level grade-3 doctor, Minos' butler had achieved this impressive feat, significantly improving the reputation of the Black Plain and himself.
Because of this, virtually all the regional families valued Dillian, many of them interested in maintaining good contacts with the Black Plain just for the possibility of their members being treated by him in case of need.
Other than those involved in the war, no one in the region was obligated to maintain relations with the Black Plain or do things for Minos. Because of this, some powers still avoided unnecessary contact with the regional tyrant.
But with Dillian's existence revealed months ago, even the most reclusive regional powers were already watching this state with different eyes, interested in maintaining cordial contacts.
And so, Dillian greeted several regional nobles as he passed the reception area of the General Hospital, where those people undergoing treatment or accompanying patients usually stayed.
...
After arriving at his office on one of the upper floors of the main building of the General Hospital, Dillian immediately came across a person waiting for him there.
"Oh? Young Davy? I didn't think you had arrived yet." He casually commented as he walked over to Vivian's brother and sat in an armchair behind his office desk.
Hearing Dillian's comment, Davy greeted him back. "I just got here. I spent the night at my sister's house in the Dry City core. So, I'm a little early. Anyway, I'm looking forward to that last treatment session."
"Hehe, as expected." Dillian laughed.
After reaching level 60 and learning his 7th technique, Dillian had achieved the complete cellular regeneration skill, capable of rebuilding lost limbs.
So he had been treating people and beasts related to the local forces ever since, among them, those affected by the loss of one or another part of their bodies.
Dillian had been helping Emlyn, who had lost part of one of her paws even before she joined Minos. On the other hand, Elen's father, Richard Nash, currently at level 60, was also undergoing treatment with this doctor to recover the part of his body lost during the war against the Allen family.
Finally, Davy, who Leroy Chambers had tricked into fighting Minos during the Spiritual Tournament, had been having cellular regeneration sessions with Dillian for the past four months to recover his lost arm.
After these months of weekly treatment, the arm Minos had cut off at the base of one of Davy's shoulders had recovered to the palm of this fellow's hand.ʟ
And feeling that he could finally exert the full strength of his level 56, Vivian's brother could not help but feel thrilled, eager to return in one piece to his family.
"Well, sit here." Dillian indicated a stretcher for Davy.
After that, this famous regional doctor sat down on a stool and activated two of his techniques simultaneously, each ranked as Golden-grade.
Seeing Dillian's hands glow as golden beams of light appeared from his fingers, Davy smiled and closed his eyes, beginning to feel the nerves in his fingers.
Dillian then continued to do that for some time, periodically talking to his patient about other matters unrelated to the treatment.
"How is your family? Have you decided to return to the region for good?"
"My family is doing well. My father reached level 61 two months ago, and my sister is already at level 56." As he said this, Davy's voice had a tone of pride.
"Hehe, good. The Hayes family is making good use of the position they got."
"Hmm, as for me, I am in the process of leaving my sect. So, it should still be a few months before I can move back to the area once and for all."
Just like Mona, Davy, and also other members of families subordinate or allied to Minos, people below level 60 were returning from the Flaming Empire to this region.
The reason these people had initially left this region had been because of the regional limits that limited their talents. But with one of those limits having been removed by Minos, there was no longer much reason for these descendants to remain in such a dangerous and crowded place for mere Spiritual Kings.
As there were methods for disciples to leave their sects, many of these people had already returned to this region to strengthen their families and grow more peacefully.
This action had been encouraged by Minos, and even the Spiritual Church saw no problem since only Spiritual Kings had no way to influence the current regional power dynamics.
Hell, they were allowing Spiritual Kings from Albano to enter this region, so why would they cause problems for these legitimate regional descendants?
"That's better. The Black Plain needs good talents, and this place will get you better results than the Flaming Empire." Dillian commented, still looking at Davy's hand, which by now had two fully grown fingers.
After some time, when the fourth finger was finishing growing on his hand, Davy asked in a tone laden with curiosity. "Dillian, is it true that Minos has already reached level 60?"
Not everyone knew about Minos' advancement a few months ago. Only the core of the Black Plain Army and a few other influential individuals from that region were aware of his advance.
Because of this reality, Davy was unsure if the rumor he had heard over the past few days around the Black Plain was true.
"Where did you hear that?" Dillian asked with a smile on his face.
Rumors like this had been circulating the Black Plain for quite some time, even before Minos' advancement.
Part of the population liked to boost the stories of their knowledge...
"I heard it at a tavern on the road between the City of Waters and here." He was sincere.
"Well, I have the impression that the current level of His Grace will not remain a mystery for long. So, don't rush to find out the truth..."
Upon hearing those words, Davy soon assumed that Minos had advanced to the 7th stage and clenched one of his fists in determination, remembering the past. 'Back then, while I was at level 43, he was only at level 39 when he faced me...'
'Sigh... I don't think I can even safely watch him on the battlefield from now on.'
'He has already completely surpassed the greatest geniuses of our generation in this region.' He pondered, remembering Troy, who was currently at level 58.
'Even Dennis Red is probably no match for him...'
'What a monster!'
After that, the last missing finger on his hand finished growing, and Davy put his thoughts regarding Minos aside to firmly shake that hand.
The treatment used by Dillian not only depended on this man but also used a lot of the patient's energies. But even though he was exhausted at this moment, Davy was experiencing incomparable happiness, full of excitement for fully recovering his lost arm.
'Now, I only have to train for a few weeks, and I will regain my combat proficiency!'
'I'll finally be able to use my full power!' He vibrated in excitement, feeling something similar to what Emlyn and Richard had experienced with this same treatment.
"Thank you for your help, Dillian. I'll never forget it!"
"Hmm, you don't have to worry. I just did as promised to your sister and family..." Dillian sat down in his armchair, feeling slight fatigue in his body. "What are you going to do now?"
"Well, I intend to return to the empire and finish settling my affairs..." He remembered something and then asked. "By the way, when will citizens be able to use the teleportation arrays? Do you intend to connect the Black Plain with states outside the region?"
