88 Silent Healer

The man ran out of the house full of energy. The Time Healing was more effective than before after Yale had obtained the perfect affinity and improved his understanding of the Time Law in the Special Realm.

Everyone was shocked at the scene. They never hoped that the healing finished so quickly and even with the man's hand in a perfect state.

The man was even running around after being healed, that level of healing wasn't of an amateur.

Oscro was also shocked, but he didn't show it, he only put a smug smile as he was negotiating the price. Oscro didn't know why Yale was that skillful in healing despite saying that it wasn't his specialty, but he wouldn't lose the chance of making more money from the deal.

After Yale left the house, the villagers were looking at him with adoration in their eyes. They had only heard about natural healing before. They were unaware that the elemental types of healing could restore limbs. To them, Yale created a miracle.

Oscro knew very well that restoring a lost hand was possible with elemental healing. Still, he was surprised because he didn't expect that Yale could use it.

The benefits Oscro managed to obtain in that village were superior to all the benefits of all the other villages together. He didn't even need to negotiate too much. After the villagers had seen how the man's hand grew again, they started to offer more to them.

Oscro had a broad smile after leaving the village. The results were far better than he expected because he had thought that Yale could only cast natural healing.

Elemental Healing spells were treasures in the Zuatania Republic, anyone who knew one would treasure it, and even the merchant association would show goodwill towards that type of healer.

"I understand why you didn't want anyone to see you healing. You know elemental healing... You really surprised me before. I thought that you were a normal healer."

"Is there any problem with knowing elemental healing?"

Yale knew that unless someone with a high level or familiarized with Time Healing saw him while using Time Healing, he wouldn't be discovered. At most, the others would think it was water o light healing. However, he didn't expect that even that was strange among healers in the Zuatania Republic.

"No problem at all. The opposite, healers with such spells are even rarer. The profit I estimated was only considering natural healing. With elemental healing, we have chances to compete even with veterans if we plan our acts well."

Yale sighed in relief. Although it was rare, it wasn't forbidden to practice or something like that.

Oscro tried to talk more with Yale after discovering Yale's prowess in healing. Oscro couldn't believe that he had so much good luck to find an amnesic elemental healer capable of restoring a hand in seconds that would be willing to team together with him to do business.

"I think that you should do like before and remain without speaking when we are in the villages. It creates some mystery about you since you are also an elemental healer. Given that you have memory problems, seeming mysterious and distant is safer than interacting with others closely."

Yale liked the idea. He had chances of revealing that he wasn't from the Zuatania Republic if he interacted with others too much. He didn't even want to speak a lot with Oscro due to that.

The next day, they went to bigger villages. They had more valuables than the others, and the profit from Oscro's transactions improved. However, they were in less need than the others, so Oscro had to negotiate more the prices.

They visited four of such villages in a day, and two of them asked for healing services for sick elders.

The results were outstanding like before, the villagers were amazed at the results, and they ended up doubling the price they had agreed beforehand.

After a week of the same routine, rumors about a Silent Healer with a wolf cub on his head and accompanied by a merchant had started to spread among the villages.

Oscro's idea about making Yale's identity more mysterious worked well, that mystery only expanded the rumors. They turned famous among the villages outside Trade City.

As their fame increased, even Oscro's trades improved in benefits. He traveled with the Silent Healer, and he was also the one who negotiated the prices for healing, so everyone wanted to have a good relationship with him.

Oscro was extremely happy those days. He was feeling that his objectives were becoming easier to accomplish thanks to Yale. Fame and reputation were very important for any business, only by the reputation and fame they obtained from healing even the normal transactions had turned better than before.

They were nearing Trade City as they advanced because the villages near it also wanted the Silent Healer's services.

The people of those villages had some of the real money used in the Zuatania Republic. The money was in the form of paper instead of valuable metals like gold or silver, but as it was recognized by the Zuatania Merchant Association, to any inhabitant of the Zuatania Republic having some of that money was more valuable than anything else.

The more they approached Trade City, the nearer the villages started to be from each other. At a certain point, they even fused into a big town outside Trade City walls.

A whole month passed since Yale had left the Special Realm.

While acting as the Silent Healer, Yale had used Time Healing more than on his whole life. It even reached the twenty-second level. Increasing two levels in a month was great.

Oscro as long there wasn't any customer near was always smiling like a fool. That was because in the time he traveled with Yale, he made more profits with his trades than in a whole year, and that was without counting Yale's healing fees.

They were currently in the Trade City's Outside Town, a place where only the best merchants were allowed to trade, excluding of course the merchants who worked inside Trade City.

The Outside Town was enormous, so they spent some time traveling across it.

When the people saw Wyba on Yale's head, they knew that they were in front of the Silent Healer, so they rushed to trade with them and ask healings. Even those who didn't need any healing wanted to make good relations with them by making some trades even if they really didn't need to make them.

Yale's group was skyrocketing in fame. It was a matter of time they were able to start making some trades inside Trade City. The influence of an elemental healer shouldn't be underestimated.

Thus, those who were outside the city wanted to have good relations with them. Maybe they would need more employees after expanding their business, so it was good having a good relationship with them.

Yale was happy with his Silent Healer role. He liked the feeling of not being disturbed by others more than the necessary.

One night, Oscro stared at Yale with a serious face, that was the face he put when he was doing serious business.

"We have almost enough money to buy one Apprentice Pill, so it is about the half we need in total. If we remain with our current business, we will be able to obtain it quickly, but I think that it would be a waste. Currently, we managed to obtain a good reputation, so if we make a bit of investment, our future chances of living well would be even better."

"You know I am not good at business, be more direct."

"I think we should use the money we obtained to register as an official company in the Zuatania Merchant Association. If we use all the money that we earned until now plus what I had from before, we can do it."

Seeing that the money lover Oscro was willing to use all his money, Yale was curious about the benefits of doing it.

"There should be a lot of benefits if you are willing to invest all the money in it."

Oscro nodded.

"As you say, there are a lot of benefits. The most important one is that anyone who works for an official company and their direct family will be considered a citizen of Trade City. That is something everyone dreams about."

Oscro explanation caught Yale's attention.

"By being citizens from Trade City, we also become citizens from the Republic, and with that, we have some rights. Those who aren't citizens don't have any rights in the Zuatania Republic. Even if they are killed, no one will do something about it. However, even if an official citizen is a weakling, even bandits would think two times before attacking."

Yale had seen how important money was in Zuatania, but he didn't expect that those who weren't able to affiliate to the merchant association had no rights at all.

"My father works for a small company inside the city, and this is how we managed to live inside, but that company is in decline, and my father's position is fragile. He could be fired any day."

Yale wasn't an expert seeing through lies, but he felt that Oscro was telling the truth.

"You don't have memories, and my family situation is unstable. Creating a company is an important step to ensure both of our futures. We should be able to recover all the money quickly after that. The people inside Trade City are rich, negotiate with them is difficult, but I have confidence in my skills."
