Ball of Nothing Chapter 78

"Please! We'll do anything, please come with us to our village…"

Hua Tuo listened to the pleas of the blond-haired moontaur and shook his head .

"Please do not force my hand . The plague is caused by a disruption of the magic flow in Endow Hill . There is nothing I can do about it . Do leave, I have patients under my care . "

Layla looked at her sister . Kayla shook her head and sighed . It was difficult to convince the old man as expected . The young human boy looked familiar to Kayla but she couldn't remember where she'd seen him . They came with the intention to do whatever it took to get the medicine man return to the village with them, including poison testing . However, they never expected the medicine man to turn them away so coldly without a chance . The reason he gave them was also not something that they could justify with the chief . How was it possible for so many moontaurs to die to something as silly as magic deficiency? They were half-beasts with magic flowing in their veins . They would never run out of magic!

"Let's go," Kayla pulled her sister along who looked like she wanted to protest . However, after seeing the serious look in Kayla's eyes, she followed obediently . Hua Tuo knew that the girls wouldn't give up so easily . It was a tactical retreat for now and the Sage God wouldn't put it past them to try something else .

Whatever . He was ready for anything they threw at him . Besides, Merlin was here too . What can two moontaur girls do against two Sage Gods?

"Are they gone?" Merlin asked . He was circulated his magic in the working chakra branches, trying to identify the extent of damage in Truen's body .

Hua Tuo shook his head . "For now . They'll try again . "

Merlin clicked his tongue in irritation . "For such a gifted tribe, it's a pity they're going to be wiped out soon . "

"Do you know what's causing the disturbance?"

The wizard frowned . "Well, I can guess . However, the source of it isn't on Endow Hill . The culprit for stealing away that source is within this room though . Maybe you should ask him once he wakes up . "

Hua Tuo raised a brow and looked at the elf .

"No, not him . The other one . Zeus gave him something really troublesome and even I can't get to it . "

Hua Tuo sighed, feeling tired . Zero was definitely a troublemaker . If only he knew what he was signing up for when Buddha told him about his new students .

"I should have requested for more than 5,000 evil-warding lotuses . "

Merlin chuckled . "You should have asked him to give you a mini golden pagoda . "

Hua Tuo collapsed onto the ground and shook his head . "Are they really that troublesome?"

The wizard didn't stop working . He was now running his hands over Truen's chest with a green glow coming from his hands . Beads of perspiration could be seen on his forehead . While fixing broken chakra channels weren't something difficult, it required a huge amount of energy and that was something Merlin struggled with . Unfortunately, nobody else was as capable as him when it came to fine magic control . There were millions of branches and fixing every single one of these branches wasn't something even an archmage could do .

"From what I heard, neither of them are normal . The child there has no common sense because he wasn't human . This elf here was a sinner who'd been given a second chance . He's dead set on sacrificing himself for the child there . They have no idea how to be humans is all I can say . "

Hua Tuo groaned . "I should have asked for his magic circlet…"

Merlin laughed . "I don't think he would lend it to you, much less give it to you . "

Hua Tuo sighed . "This old man can only blame his luck now . Who asked me to be friends with such a cunning person? No wonder everybody wants Buddha's face… he's a first-class conman!"

Merlin could only agree . So many Sage Gods have fallen prey to that innocent looking face . It was the face that could make one feel as if there was no malice or ill-intentions . It was the face that could make anyone trust him easily and they learnt from their mistakes . Buddha was the scariest Sage God in existence . Never anger Buddha, he will stab you from the front with the face that can speak of righteousness .

Back in heaven, Buddha sneezed . Someone was definitely talking behind his back . Sadly, he couldn't figure out who . He only hoped that Merlin and Hua Tuo were getting along .
