Man With Super Medical Skill novel Chapter 2619

You're recruiting me just like that? Matthew wondered.

"Thank you for your kind offer, Mr. Warrick, but I'm just passing through Concordia. I have other matters to attend to and won't be settling here," he replied, politely declining.

Warrick nodded in understanding. "I see. Someone as young and capable as you wouldn't want to confine yourself to a small place like Concordia. My apologies for being presumptuous."

Although Warrick had misunderstood Matthew, the Summit Warden didn't plan to explain further. He could simply let the matter of the job offer pass.

With this, the matter was resolved.

After exchanging pleasantries, Warrick suggested, "Matthew, if you have some free time tonight, how about joining us for dinner? Let me show my appreciation."

Matthew thought this was a reasonable offer. However, just as he was about to accept, a sudden strong sense of danger surged within him.

In the corner of his eye, Matthew noticed spherical black objects being thrown from a distance, and they were headed in their direction.

"F*ck! Grenades! Everyone, get down!" Matthew shouted, pulling Warrick beside him and immediately taking cover behind a pillar.

Soon after, a flash of fire was followed by a series of deafening explosions.

Elara, initially looking after Ivy, freaked out at the sudden turn of events, and her face went pale. Worse, a grenade was heading straight toward them.

In her haste, Elara didn't think twice and turned her back to the grenade, fleeing for her life. Ivy, who was left behind in the original spot, stared blankly at the black, metallic object.

In this moment of extreme urgency, a red light suddenly emanated from Ivy's left eye. Her once childish face now displayed a strange brilliance.

As she extended her small hand toward the air, the grenade miraculously froze in place.

With a muffled sound, the grenade dropped to the ground, releasing a puff of white smoke.
