Chapter 372: How To Get Noticed
“Sir! I must protest! You cannot do that here!”
Max shook his head and didn’t pull back the healing potion he was offering the older woman whose face was stained with tears.
“Are you saying that Phaius couldn’t have instructed me to come here and help his people?”
The woman’s cheeks turned red, and her face matched the color of her hair. Everyone nearby focused on her, not the man who had been giving out gold and potions.
“No! I mean yes! I—”
An older woman with solid white hair came up from behind her. Her robes were purple, and Max could see the blue eyes that were locked on him almost sparkling.
“He is right, Juileana. Sometimes, our protector sends those we might not expect to assist. Now then, allow him to do as he has been led, and I will handle this.”
The younger woman huffed, took a deep breath, nodded once, bent her neck, and turned to leave, her yellow robe swishing as she strode away quickly.
“Take it. Go heal your granddaughter.”
