Chapter 103 The Saintess of the Battlefield

Fen Yu suddenly realized.

It turned out to be Dean Kate. He recognized the name, but this was the first time he had met her in person.

Looking at Dean Kate's arrogant and domineering demeanor, and then at Nazha's eyes that were practically spitting fire, he suddenly understood a lot more.

It's no wonder that Nazha was so eager to pay off her debts, even resorting to the foolish act of scheming against her friends.

Imagine, under such daily ridicule and humiliation, coupled with Mihe, the spendthrift god who only knows how to give generously but doesn't know how to manage money, all the pressure weighed heavily on her alone, almost crushing her.

"So, is this month's payment ready, Mihe-i-?"

'

Dean Kate crossed her arms and looked down at him, asking the question.

"This—!" Mih's face turned bright red, and he couldn't answer a single word.

"Hmph, judging from your expression, you're not ready yet, are you? Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha."

Dean Kate burst into an even more ear-piercing laugh, "You guys who never pay back your debts."

Mihe and Nazha clenched their teeth simultaneously, with such force that it seemed they wanted to crush them.

"I, who am full of compassion, have forgiven you countless times so far."

Dean Kate's smile vanished, his eyes turning cold. "However, I can't stand your fickle attitude any longer. If you don't pay this month's bill by tomorrow, I'm going to kick you out of this store and sell this lousy headquarters. You better watch out."

Dean Kate roared and spat as he spoke, then burst into arrogant laughter once again.

Then, he changed the subject, and put on that fake "compassionate" smile again: "Fine, I know you definitely won't be able to pay this month, so I'll be merciful and give you another chance."

"Introduce me to the therapist who makes the healing spray, and have her join my family, or work with me."

"If you agree, I'll forgive your debts for this month. How about it? Aren't I a great guy? Hahahaha."

Upon hearing the words "healing spray," Fenyu and Robin immediately focused their attention on Fengjin.

The healing spray made by Kaze is now extremely popular among lower and middle-level adventurers. It is effective and reasonably priced. Unexpectedly, even a top-tier healing family like Dean Kate has been attracted to it.

Feng Jin's potions are sold exclusively at Tianqing Pharmacy, which has indeed brought a lot of popularity to the place.

The problem is that most customers only come to buy the healing spray and leave after they've made their purchase.

Moreover, because Feng Jin often needs to enter the dungeon, the number of potions she can make is limited. Therefore, although the business of Tianqing Pharmacy has improved somewhat, it is only a small improvement.

Debts that cannot be repaid will still be paid off.

Of course, Fen Yu knew in his heart that the main responsibility for this lay with the spendthrift Miheshen.

On this point, he fully supports Nazha.

Despite his own family struggling to make ends meet and burdened with enormous debt, this deity continued to act philanthropicly, giving away all sorts of expensive elixirs without batting an eye.

His actions may have indeed helped many poor adventurers, and even saved their lives, but in the end, it was Nazha, the child who took care of the whole family for him, who suffered the most.

Just as Dean Kate's shrill words and Mihe and Nazha's humiliating silence were weaving into a suffocating web, a soft voice came from the doorway.

"Lord Dean Kate, please stop this nonsense."

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a petite figure standing quietly by the door.

She was a girl with long, flowing silver hair, her features as exquisite as the most expensive doll in a shop window.

Her spotless white clan uniform stood out starkly against the dark and old-fashioned pharmacy.

She first bowed deeply to the astonished crowd in the room, her clear eyes filled with apology, as if apologizing for the rudeness of the God.

"Haha, Amid, you're just too soft-hearted."

Dean Kate glanced at her, but instead of stopping, she laughed even louder. "Paying back debts is a matter of course. I've already been merciful and given them a chance."

The girl named Amide frowned slightly, as if she wanted to say something more, but a steady voice rang out before she could.

"Goddess Dean Kate".

Fen Yu stepped out from in front of Feng Jin and calmly met Dean Kate's oppressive gaze.

"I am Burning Feather of the Fucaros Familia."

He began by introducing himself, speaking in a neither humble nor arrogant tone, "The therapist who makes the healing spray is a member of our group. She could not possibly join the Dean Kate Familia, so there's no need for cooperation."

"Making potions is just a side job for her; being an adventurer is her main profession."

Dean Kate's laughter stopped.

His arrogant eyes sized up Fen Yu a few more times.

Immediately, his gaze lightly fell on Feng Jin behind Fen Yu, and with just one glance, he accurately locked onto his target.

But he didn't persist; instead, he burst into laughter again.

"Is that so? If you don't want to, then forget it."

He arrogantly turned his head back to Mih and issued his ultimatum.

"Prepare the debt by tomorrow, or don't blame me for being rude."

After saying that, he didn't look at anyone else again, turned around and walked towards the door.

"Amid, let's go."

"Yes."

Amed responded in a low voice.

Before turning around to follow, she bowed apologetically to everyone. Her eyes, as clear as fine glass, lingered curiously on Feng Jin for a moment before she hurriedly left with Dean Kate.

As the dilapidated shop door was closed again, the pharmacy fell silent once more.

"God Mihe," Fenyu broke the silence, looking at the dejected Mihe, "if you have any difficulties, we still have some money here."

"No, no need."

Mih waved his hand repeatedly.

He forced a smile that looked more like a grimace. "Don't let Dean Kate's harsh words fool you. He's said these kinds of hurtful things countless times, and my shop is still doing just fine, isn't it? I will—I will find a way."

Fen Yu looked at him quietly and did not insist any further.

"That's good."

He nodded.

Since Mich himself insists that he can solve the problem, any further comments from outsiders will only embarrass him more.

Some dignity needs to be upheld by oneself.

Of course, if the Mih Familia is truly powerless and needs help, he will not stand idly by. After all, money is important to him, but not that important.

Besides money, there are other ways to help.
