rank 3 doctor.

Noah returned home and got to work, transforming his living room into a makeshift clinic for his patients. He instructed his shadows to position themselves strategically for protection and to create a more comfortable environment for the patients.

An hour later, the first patient arrived, a woman in her 40s with an armpit infection due to previous improper treatment. She greeted Noah, her voice low and filled with embarrassment because of the smell.

"Hello, Doctor. Thank you for doing this. I really need to get rid of this infection," she said timidly.

"It's my duty, ma'am. Don't worry, I'll help you with that," Noah assured her, guiding her to sit down. With his divine insight and extensive knowledge, treating her was as effortless as eating.

Noah spent the entire week assisting people, and his name quickly gained popularity. This helped divert attention from the unfortunate incident involving the city lord, which brought joy to her. Her impression of Noah improved significantly.

His patient count also climbed, reaching the 1,000 mark. Despite his improved abilities, he remained a rank 2 knight and was quite exhausted.

"Mission accomplished, Master," Sara's voice rang out, prompting Noah to fall asleep. His shadows gently carried him to his room for a well-deserved rest.

"As you can see, the doctor is quite tired, so please understand that this will be the last patient," Thoe announced. This statement angered some, but when they noticed the shadow guards preparing for a potential attack, they hurriedly departed.

After a day of rest, Noah woke up feeling refreshed.

Mission: Heal 1,000 people

Rewards: Healing power, Self-regeneration, Full knowledge of the human body

Noah possessed remarkable abilities:

- Heal: The power of the Light Goddess allowed him to heal any ailment or injury, provided he understood the problem and the person was still alive.

- Self-regeneration: As long as a single cell remained, he could return to life.

- Human Body Full Knowledge: This knowledge extended to all living beings, not just humans, and enabled him to comprehend the intricacies and potential of the body. The technique was named after its human inventor.

Noah wasn't just the best doctor; he was also an exceptional teacher. He could unlock a person's full potential with a mere glance, starting with himself. He meticulously examined his body, identifying areas in need of improvement. While his body was already near perfection, he aimed to customize it to suit both an assassin and a sword master.

To achieve this, he embarked on the challenging journey of altering his bone structure and activating pressure points. It was a painful process, but one he deemed necessary for his continued growth and adaptation to his multiple roles.

Noah's stats and journey were impressive:

- Name: Noah

- Talent: Perfect

- Race: Human

- Strength: 91

- Agility: 232

- Vitality: 100

His agility increase was precisely what he needed. He appeared leaner and more agile, with body fat levels nearing 1%. His energy was sustained by his mana.

Realizing it was time to commence his magic training, Noah turned to Sara.

"Sara, I want my magic knowledge and my space magic," Noah ordered.

"Mission: Obtain 10,000 magic cores from rank 2+ Beasts. Magic Knowledge. Space Manipulation," he added.

Noah couldn't help but scoff at the challenging task ahead. "That's a tough one. You know I won't fight that many beasts, even if I have to."

But he had more pressing concerns on his mind—the meeting with the city lord as an assassin, mastering the use of daggers, and advancing his doctor rank.

Noah decided to visit the Alchemy Guild to further his rank. Polite and determined, he inquired, "Hey, I'm here for my new rank 2 exam."

The receptionist recognized Noah from his badge and greeted him warmly. "Ah, Doctor Noah, you've been working hard."

Noah smiled gratefully and made an unusual request. "Thank you. Could you please check if I can take the rank 3 exam as well? I don't want to wait too long."

The receptionist was initially shocked but, recalling his impressive achievements over the past ten weeks, she agreed. She disappeared briefly into the back and returned with a rank two doctor and an elderly man with white hair.

Doctor Noah was determined to advance to rank 3, and the elderly man in charge of the exam emphasized the need for proficiency in magic and healing spells.

"If you want to take the rank 3 exam, you need to know magic and how to use healing spells," the man explained in a polite but firm tone.

Noah confidently suggested an alternative approach. "I understand. What if I demonstrate my skills by healing a rank 3 mage or solving a rank 3 problem? Would that prove my worthiness?"

The old man considered the proposal. "Hm, let's do this. I will quiz you on some rank 3 spells, and you must show me how to perform them. If you succeed, I will grant you the badge."

After a grueling three hours of tackling challenging spells and questions, Noah emerged victorious, earning his rank 3 badge. He contemplated pursuing higher ranks but recognized the need to visit the capital for that.

With his new rank, Noah had the right to at least a baron's title. However, he decided to postpone seeking nobility, aware of the complexity and the requirement of the king's approval. His plan was to attain a rank 5 badge first, and then request a noble title, potentially becoming a city lord or a count.

Following his accomplishment, Noah paid a visit to the Blacksmith shop. He greeted Miss Eve as he approached the smelting room.

"Hello, Miss Eve. How's everything going?" Noah inquired.

Eve was delighted to see him and expressed her gratitude. "Hello, Doctor Noah. Thank you for helping my old man. You've made a world of difference."

"It's my duty," Noah replied humbly. "I'm now a rank 3 Doctor, so I thought I'd come and celebrate with you. You and Theodore are the only people I know here."

Eve was taken aback by the news but quickly recovered. "That's definitely a reason to celebrate! Let's go for a drink, Doctor Noah."

Noah nodded with a smile. "Sounds fun." He patiently waited for Eve to finish her tasks, and then the two of them headed to a nearby inn for a well-deserved break.
