Chapter 407: A Meeting of Masters
When I nod to her affirmation, she gives me another hard look.
As if trying to figure out who I am and if it would be worth pushing it through now.
When I see her eyes squint, I fidget, as it feels like she’s starting to put the pieces together. As expected, this makes her stop.
Even if she figures it out, I’ve stated my intention to stay anonymous. That’s enough to make her cease pursuing my identity.
After all, this policy is one of the great things about the Healer’s Association. This policy allows those normally ostracized or marginalized to prove their skills in a neutral setting.
But whatever she figured out has finally convinced her, causing her to look in the distance. Likely communicating with the other Masters in the city. Assembling those who would judge me.
Within moments, I feel four other presences shoot toward this area. Each between low to high Core Formation.
They appear before us, each intimidating in their own ways. But to my surprise, there is something that I haven’t seen much of yet. That most of them are females.
Four older, powerful women stand before me, including Madame Qian, with one elderly male. All of whom look like, at least physically, are between their late 30s and 50s.
