Gilmore and Lilian, along with their companions, entered the grand hall.
Gilmore slightly bowed to Huston, who was reclining on the throne. “Huston, Gilmore has come to see you.”
“There’s no need for such formalities for a guest of honor like the Celestial, Huston responded, his face showing respect as he commanded Anson to provide a seat.
Anson nodded and promptly brought over a chair, placing it behind Gilmore.
A shade of complexity crossed Levi’s eyes.
It stung a bit that, despite his lofty status as the imperial preceptor, Huston hadn’t offered him a seat.
Instead, it was Gilmore, a man he considered the phony Celestial, who was granted this honor by Mr. Franko.
This made Levi feel a little uncomfortable.
In his opinion, this was already very obvious.
Mr. Franko values Gilmore far more than him.
Levi harbored a secret grudge. He thought, “Hmph!

Chapter 816
“How can you cure it?
“How can you expect us to believe you, and what proof can you offer?
“Mr. Franko’s body is not some common flesh that tolerates recklessness.”
Gilmore replied with a smile. “If I say I can cure it, rest assured, can.
“I’m well aware of how Mr. Franko’s health is, which is why I’m here to stop those with malicious intents, using vile means to harm Mr. Franko,”
Upon hearing this. Levi was seething with rage. “What did you just say? You mentioned someone with ill intent using poisonous substances to harm Mr. Franko. Whom are you accusing?”
Gilmore said, “Whoever has a guilty conscience will know.”
Levi was inwardly furious and wanted to tear Gilmore apart.
However, he managed to keep his composure in front of Mr. Franko, not wanting to show any weakness.
Levi suppssed his
anger and said to Gilmore, Some are keen to slander others, thinking they can succeed with their plots.
“Sadly, those who attempt to turn right into wrong will never triumph.”
Gilmore smirked coldly. “Indeed, those who twist the truth will eventually reap what they sow.”
“Gilmore, since you claim my elixir cannot cure the Mr. Franko’s unique ailment, shall we make a bet? Levi challenged Gilmore provocatively and said.
Gilmore agreed readily. “Sure, what are the stakes?”
Levi said, “Let’s make a bet. If you can’t cure Mr. Franko’s strange disease, what should we do?
“What if my Spirit Spring Detoxifying Elixir can cure Mr. Franko’s strange disease?”
Gilmore responded, looking directly at Levi, Tm willing to take this bet.
“How shall the loser be punished? Why doesn’t Levi enlighten us
The imperial preceptor said, “If you cure Mr. Franko, and you win, then I will kneel before you and call you the Celestial
three times.
“However, if you lose and I win, you will have to crawl out of the palace like a dog and never appear in Fensville again.”
Before Gilmore could respond, Claire couldn’t hold back and said to Levi, “If you lose, you merely have to kneel and call out the Celestial three times.
“If Gilmore loses, he has to crawl out of the palace and vanish from Fensville.
“Such punishment seems quite unfair”
Levi’s brows furrowed, and his gaze turned icy as he glared at Claire. “And who might you be, daring to interrupt?”
Gilmore said to Levi, “She is my wife.”
Though the imperial preceptor was furious, he did not scold her further.
Gilmore said to Levi, “My wife is right.

“The terms you propose for the loser are indeed unfair.
“I have no interest in an unfair wager.
With a cold snort, Levi said, “Fine, then the loser, whoever it is, will crawl out of the palace like a dog.
Even though Levi was certain that he would win.
However, he still left himself a way out, which was to climb out of the palace without saying that he would never appear in Fensville again
Gilmore nodded. “Agreed, that’s settled.”
Levi also turned to Huston and said, “Mr. Franko, we request you to bear witness to the wager with Mr. Reed.
“If the loser refuses the agreed punishment, please Mr. Franko issue an edict for his execution.”
Huston, appearing weak on his throne, nodded to Levi. “Fine, I will bear witness.”
Seeing Mr. Franko’s agreement, Levi was inwardly delighted.
When Gilmore loses later, he won’t have to worry about him going back on his word.
Then, Levi looked at Gilmore and said, “Now, let’s start treating Mr. Franko.
“TI let you treat Mr. Franko first. If Mr. Franko can’t relieve the pain in half an hour, the treatment will fail.
Then I will treat Mr. Franko. What do you think?”
The reason Levi set a half–hour limit was that he knew his Spirit Spring Detoxifying Elixir would relieve Mr. Franko’s abdominal pain within that time frame.
He believed there was no way Gilmore could relieve the pain of Mr. Franko in under thirty minutes.
Because the source of Mr. Franko’s excruciating pain wasn’t any mysterious ailment, It was the result of a parasitic worm he had secretly introduced into the Mr. Franko’s body.
“Alright, we’ll take half an hour as the deadline. Whoever can cure Mr. Franko wins. I’ll start with the treatment, Gilmore
said.
After that, Gilmore walked to the couch. Amy moved the chair to Gilmore and said,” Mr. Reed, please sit down and treat my
father.”
Thank you, Amy: Gilmore responded and took a seat.
Gilmore then placed his hand on Huston’s wrist, pretending to check his pulse.
Huston was writhing in agony, his brow covered in cold sweat, his face as white as a ghost.
Of course, Gilmore was not actually taking the pulse. It was all for show to make everyone believe he was a skilled healer.
After a moment, Gilmore withdrew his hand.
Huston quickly asked, ‘the Celestial, what illness do I suffer from and can it be cured?”
Gilmore looked up at Huston and said, “Mr. Franko, you are notick
Gilmore’s statement caused Huston, Amy and everyone else to do a double–take.

Did they hear
Mr. Franko, right!
sick?
Seeing his tortured and agonized state, it was clear he was seriously ill.
Yet, Gilmore had claimed he wasn’t sick.
Although he knew that Huston’s stomach pain wasn’t due to an illness but because of a malicious charm he had secretly used.
However, he sneered at Gilmore and said. “If you don’t know how to cure diseases, Mr. Reed, just say it.
There’s no need to delay Mr. Franko’s treatment. He’s clearly in so much pain, and yet you claim Mr. Franko isn’t sick. Now’s not the time for jokes.”
Hearing from Gilmore that he wasn’t sick, Huston felt a wave of disappointment.
He was in such excruciating pain that he couldn’t believe it wasn’t due to an illness.
He had put great hope in Gilmore, the Celestial.
But it seemed now that he might be, as Levi suggested, the Celestial of fake.
After her initial shock, Amy hastily said to Levi, “Levi, Mr. Reed did not say he was joking.
“Since Mr. Reed insists my father isn’t sick, there must be a reason. Why don’t we listen to what Mr. Reed has to say?”
Levi laughed coldly. “Amy, at this point, you still believe The Celestial of fake can cure Mr. Franko?”
Amy was so angry she was lost for words, “You.”
She turned away from Levi and looked towards Gilmore, saying “Mr. Reed, you just mentioned that my father isn’t sick. “Can you explain why my father isn’t ill?”
Gilmore nodded, his gaze sharp as he looked towards Huston on the royal couch, then to Amy and the others nearby, and said, I have just checked Mr. Franko’s pulse and found it to be steady, not the pulse of someone who is ill.
“However, although Mr. Franko is not ill, there is something untoward within his body.”
“What kind of anomaly? Princess Amy couldn’t help but ask.
about
Huston, as well as everyone else, turned their eyes to Gilmore, eager to know what sort of anomaly Gilmore was talking
Levi lelt a surge of shock internally.
He knew that Mr. Franko’s illness was indeed due to an anomaly within his body.
And this anomaly was a parasitic worm capable of tormenting Mr. Franko to the brink of death.
Gilmore’s ability to identify that the root cause of the ailment stemmed from an anomaly unsettled Levi a bit.
Still, Levi was convinced that Gilmore could not possibly know about the worm he had secretly placed i

Just then. Gilmore looked at Amy and said, “Ms. Franko, there is a parasitic worm inside Mr. Frank
“What? A worm has been placed in my father?” Amy was shocked.
Huston also showed a look of astonishment..
Even Levi was taken aback. How could this be possible?
How could Gilmore have discovered the presence of the parasitic worm in Mr. Franko’s body?
Levi knew he had placed the worm inside Mr. Franko alongside an elixir of longevity.
This affair was known to no one but himself.
Moreover, the worm he used was tinier than a strand of hair, invisible to the naked eye.
And once it entered the Mr. Franko’s bloodstream, finding it hidden there would be impossible for anyone.
Yet, here was Gilmore, declaring the presence of the worm inside Mr. Franko, utterly beyond Levi’s expectations. With calm assurance, Gilmore said to Amy, “That’s right, Mr. Franko has been afflicted with a parasitic worm. “But don’t worry. I can kill all the insects in Mr. Franko’s body and get him out of danger quickly.”
When Amy heard this, she was overjoyed. “Hurry up, Mr. Reed, help my father get rid of the poisonous insects.” Gilmore nodded and said, “Alright, as I work to remove the worm, I ask everyone to step back. Keep your distance from Mr. Franko and me to avoid the worm escaping from his body and entering yours.”
Hearing this, everyone consciously stepped back several feet away.
Needless to say, they were very afraid of the venomous insects.
Huston’s face too showed fear as he looked towards Gilmore. The Celestial, save me!”
Gilmore said to Huston, ‘Don’t worry, Mr. Franko, I will definitely get rid of all the venomous insects in vo
After that, Gilmore stretched out his hand.
He ran his anima and then sent out moonlight–white anima from his palm.
Gilmore’s palm, glowing with anima, moved methodically over Eluston’s abdomen
body.”
Gilmore moved his palm up and down above the Huston’s abdomen, and the anima in his palm illuminated Huston’s entire abdomen.
In this way, Gilmore used the anima in his palm to shine on the Huston’s abdomen for about ten minutes before he withdrew his palm
Then, Gilmore said to the Huston, “Mr. Franko, all the poisonous insects in your boily have been killed. You will no longer have abdominal pain in the future.”
When Huston heard what Gilmore said, he couldn’t believe it.
Just moments ago, his abdomen was in agony.
Yet now, the pain had vanished as if by magic.
Joy flickered in Huston’s eyes. Had his abdominal pain really healed?

It was like a dream.
“The Celestial, has my pain truly been cured?” Huston asked, looking at Gilmore.
Gilmore simply nodded with a smile and said, “Mr. Franko, your suffering is indeed over. You might want to stand and take a few steps.
Still in a haze of doubt, Huston rose from his throne and, to the amazement of all, walked around.
Huston was finally sure that his abdominal pain had completely healed.
Overwhelmed with joy and gratitude, Huston clasped Gilmore’s hand. “Mr. Reed, I can’t thank you enough.
“Without your help, I fear I would have continued to endure unbearable pain.”
Gilmore said. “Mr. Franko, you flatter me. It just so happens that ve learned the witchcraft technique and can use it.
“As long as Mr. Franko is healthy, I am also happy for you.”
Huston said. “Mr. Reed, you are truly the Celestial. Not only remarkable in skill but also humble in spirit.”
“I’m flattered. Mr. Franko, Gilmore Reed said modestly.
Then, turning to Levi, who was still in a state of shock, Gilmore said to him, “Imperial Preceptor, our bet has concluded, and I have won. As per our agreement, it’s time for you to accept the penalty.
Levi’s face soured.
He had never imagined that he would lose the bet
品
He thought that he was going to crawl out of the palace like a dog.
Then he would never be able to raise his head in front of the officials.
However, he had asked Mr. Franko to testify for the bet, so he could not deny it.
Therefore, Levi looked at Huston.
His intention was obvious. He hoped that Huston could help him out.
At the end of the day, Levi did not want to crawl out of the palace. It was too embarrassing.
However, when Huston saw Levi’s gaze, he nodded his head and said: “Yes, I’m the witnesses to your bet.
“Now that Mr. Reed has gotten rid of the poison in my body in less than half an hour, Mr. Reed naturally wins this bet.”
Speaking of this, Huston looked at Levi and said, “Imperial Preceptor, you won’t deny it, will you?”
Levi immediately put on a bitter face.
He had intended to ask Huston to help her out of embarrassment
But now, Huston urged him to fulfill his promise.
This was truly unfortunate for Levi
