Daddy the Miracle Medic (Lachlan and Miranda) novel Chapter 487

Chapter 487 You Better Not Touch Me

In the scorching underground chamber, an old man and a young man were passionately discussing alchemy knowledge.

Kyrie, the great witch doctor, unconsciously began to change how he addressed Lachlan. As their discussion deepened, he went from calling Lachlan "kid" to "young man," then to "your excellency." Finally, he directly called him "little friend."

The change in address indicated Kyrie's changing attitude towards Lachlan. The term "little friend" represented his affection for this young man and his attitude of equal interaction.

"Little friend, why did you lie to me?"

After an hour had passed, Kyrie's face turned red with excitement as he stared at Lachlan with a glint in his eye.

"Huh? What do you mean by lying to you? I didn't lie about anything," replied Lachlan with confusion on his face.

Just moments ago they were getting along well; why did Kyrie suddenly turn hostile? It seemed that Raphael was right - this great witch doctor had a capricious personality!

"Hmph! You haven't lied yet? You're not just knowledgeable about alchemy - you're incredibly proficient!"

"You still think you're not lying?"

At last, Kyrie couldn't help but smile as he spoke. His previously stern expression softened.

Lachlan was sweating profusely as he laughed and said, "Alchemy is vast and profound. I dare not say that I am proficient. Sir, you're too kind!"

Kyrie waved his hand dismissively, "Enough of your false modesty! And stop calling me 'sir.' We share similar interests; today your insights into alchemy and ancient medicine have given me a sense of enlightenment."

"We can be considered friends now! How about we become sworn brothers?"

"What? Sworn brothers?"

Lachlan looked at him strangely. This great witch doctor really didn't follow convention when it came to social norms... it seemed like every moment was unpredictable...

"Why not? Do you look down on me or something?" asked Kyrie with a frown on his face while staring at him intently. His fiery red hair looked like it might explode any second - truly resembling that of a fire lion.

"How could that be possible?! I'm just surprised by your kindness!" replied Lachlan seriously.

"If you think highly enough of me, then let us become sworn brothers."

At this moment, Kyrie was amazed by his understanding of Lachlan. He didn't just want to become brothers with him on a whim, but had his own considerations.

Lachlan's insights and accomplishments in alchemy seemed to open up a whole new world for Kyrie. In just a short conversation, he had already obtained at least five precious formulas from Lachlan.

Kyrie had been obsessed with alchemy for years and it was clear how impressed he was. By becoming brothers with Lachlan, he knew that his own achievements in alchemy would eventually reach new heights.

He couldn't let go of this walking "alchemy secret book" that was Lachlan. As for Lachlan himself, he also admired Kyrie greatly.

He knew his own business!

It was entirely because he obtained the jade pendant inheritance that he had achieved his current accomplishments and knowledge.

However, this great witch doctor had relied solely on his years of cultivation and research to attain his current level of achievement. It was truly admirable!

As they saw Lachlan entering from the backyard of the small building, the three of them turned their gazes towards him.

Upon seeing Lachlan, Altha and Penelope paused for a moment, and then a sinister smile appeared on their faces. Darius's face became cold and filled with a chilling gaze as he stared at Lachlan.

"Lachlan! You've come out?" Altha asked with a sinister tone the next second.

Penelope glared at Lachlan with resentment and said, "You piece of garbage, you seem surprised, don't you? You never would have dreamed that you would encounter us here, right?"

With a mocking tone, she asked, "Guess why we're here?"

Lachlan askrf expressionlessly, "Why? What does Nemesis Pavilion have to do with you?"

Through gritted teeth, Penelope replied, "You clever bastard! So, there is retribution in the workings of fate! Heaven had a path for you, but you barged into hell!"

At this moment, Darius stood up and coldly and indifferently asked Lachlan, "Kid, did you kill Diego, right?"

Lachlan hesitated for a moment and nodded, saying, "It was me. What about it?"

Darius sneered, "Diego was my disciple!"

Upon hearing this, Lachlan opened his mouth to say something. However, Darius interrupted him, saying, "You don't need to defend yourself! I don't care about the cause and effect of this matter, nor do I care who was right or wrong between you, Diego, and Altha. I have no interest in fairness; I'm only here to avenge my disciple! So, prepare to leave your life behind!"

Upon hearing this, Lachlan shook his head and said, "Little Darius, I have no intention of defending myself. I just want to remind you that you better not lay a finger on me! There is a generational gap between us now!"
