As Howard’s chin was elevated, his esophagus opened instantly, allowing the water to flow directly into his stomach, and he consumed every drop.


    Filled with terror, Howard’s mind raced with the thought that it might be toote for him to bid farewell to this world.


    In the next moment, as a strange warmth spread through his stomach, fear gripped him even more tightly. He thought to himself, “Helena, that deceitful woman! She must have poisoned me! The poison is kicking in now; I’m done for! How unfortunate that I, Howard, who once held such a great reputation, would meet my end in this pitiful state!”


    Overwhelmed by his thoughts, Howard shouted angrily, “Helena! God will surely send you to hell for this!”<fn455e> For original chapters go to Find~Novel</fn455e>


    Helena responded with a raised eyebrow, asking, “Why would God send me to hell?”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Howard retorted, “You poisoned me! How could God ever forgive you?”


    With a calm smile, Helena replied, “Look, your stuttering has improved significantly. Let’s assess how you’re feeling now. Have any other symptoms gotten better?”


    Howard paused, startled, and then suddenly realized, “Wait… I’m not stuttering as much now. Why is that…?”


    He then attempted to move, noticing a marked improvement in his bodily controlpared to before!


    In an instant, he eximed, “Isn’t this incredible?! Could it be that the little pill is responsible for this change?!”


    Helena pulled out a piece of paper from the bedside to wipe Howard’s chin, shaking her head as she remarked, “Dealing with stubborn individuals like you requires a special approach.”


    She continued, “I mentioned earlier that this pill not only treats your illness but can also enhance your body beyond its previous state. Do you believe that now?”


    Howard quickly replied, “I believe it… I truly believe it! Oh no… Your Majesty, could you… possibly give me another dose of those elixirs? I’d like to experience a more pronounced effect!”


    Helena shook her head gently, saying, “Mr. Howard, given your esteemed position, you may not often visit supermarkets. While they do offer free samples, there’s no category that allows you to indulge freely before deciding to purchase. Therefore, I can’t provide you with any more elixirs until we agree on a price. I hope you understand.”


    Without hesitation, Howard responded, “Alright! If this pill canpletely cure me… I’m willing to pay… 100 million dors!”


    Helena looked taken aback, then nced at her watch and smiled, “I’m sorry, Mr. Howard, but I have other matters to attend to. Let’s focus on your recovery for now. Oh, and if you don’t mind, please refrain from having anyone contact me. My schedule is quite busy, and I prefer not to waste time. Goodbye!”
