Chapter 11: Medical Skills

I targeted my father’s waist because my goal was to touch him, not to assassinate him. This was where I was most likely to do so. It prevented the possibility of my father crouching down and dodging.

However, when my dart dagger was less than 30 centimeters away from my father, he still did not dodge.

I didn’t hesitate.

I firmly believed that my father had a way to dodge. If he didn’t dodge now, there were only two possibilities.

Test me!

Or he wanted to teach me a technique to dodge.

Swoosh!

Just as my dart was less than five centimeters away from my father and I even thought that he wouldn’t be able to dodge it, my father disappeared.

“Will! You’re indeed very talented. Three years of training has been extremely effective. You’re a natural assassin! I can see the determination in your eyes that you won’t stop until you achieve your goal.”

My father stood 50 centimeters to the left of the dart in my hand and began laughing.

“Father, that was because I firmly believed that you could dodge it. However, until the last moment, I was unable to see how you did that.”

I was a little depressed.

This attack made me certain that even if I recovered my strength from my previous life, I would not be a match for my father.

In other words, if this was really an assassination mission, I would have died.

“Will, don’t be discouraged. I used the abilities of the Reinhardt Family to show you that you don’t need magic power to assassinate a Mage. If you want to learn, you have to wait for a few more days. At least pass the training I’ve arranged for you.”

“So this is the effect of the Reinhardt family’s ability?!”

I was instantly excited.

Since Father told me so confidently, it meant that he must have had the experience of a successful assassination.

If I really couldn’t learn magic, at least I could choose to reach the peak of perfection through this path.

“That’s right. Let’s continue training…”

…

A few months later.

I was training in the basement when I saw my father walk in with a bundle wrapped in cloth.

“Will, I don’t need to teach you anything about the use of weapons anymore. From today onwards, I’ll teach you another important skill of an assassin, medical skills.”

“Medical skills? Father, am I going to pretend to be a doctor and carry out an assassination?”

This was the first answer that came to my mind.

This was because in his previous life, there were countless cases of disguised doctors assassinating their targets, and they were the cases that were easier to succeed in.

“I’m very satisfied that you thought of this immediately. However, the application of medical skills is not limited to just that. Other than concocting poisons, we may have to survive in the wilderness for a long time when carrying out assassinations, or might not be able to receive treatment immediately when being pursued. If there are no pharmacy or Healing Mages nearby, we will have to prepare medicine ourselves to mitigate or even treat our illnesses.”

Father put down the bundle, and many green leaves were revealed.

I immediately remembered that in my world, there was a kind of doctors known as traditional chinese physicians. The medicine they used also involved various flowers and plants.

I didn’t expect my father in this world to know this.

“Now, I’ll teach you to identify herbs and poisonous weeds, including concocting simple healing medicines and anesthetics.”

“Yes, Father.”

“Will, remember, this is called Datura. It has the effect of a natural anesthetic.”

“Father, this is too much. Can I learn them later…”

I begged my father.

Spare me.

Without boasting, even if I were to be abandoned in the wilderness, I would still be able to survive for 10 days to half a month without any supplies. That was if the animals in this world also had similar habits to those on Earth.

Differentiating between these plants of the same color whereby slight differences in leaf patterns determined them to be poisonous and healing medicine really made one’s scalp tingle.

“Of course not. I promised your mother that I wouldn’t let anything happen to you. This is an added guarantee of safety. Watch carefully!”

Father replied without looking up and continued to teach me how to identify herbs.

I found it hard to imagine.

The image of Father, as a noble assassin who usually did not smile, sitting on the ground like an old farmer fiddling with flowers and plants.

But now it had happened.

At this moment.

He was no longer the king of assassins, no longer an Earl of the Kingdom of Freld. He was simply a husband who made a promise to his wife and a father who did not want anything to happen to his son.

Just like that.

Under my father’s coercion, other than training my assassination skills, I also had to learn how to distinguish plants and make medicine every day.

Once I began.

Another two years passed.

I grew about half a head taller in two years.

I used all kinds of assassination weapons like a breeze, including poison, which I rarely used in my previous life. I also learned at least 15 ways to put poison into the target’s body.

The study of medicine not only allowed me to have a clear understanding of the human body, it also allowed me to learn the ability to use plants to create herbs. This was one of the Reinhardt family’s traditional skills. Although I had yet to see its use, as my father had said, it was still a guarantee of safety.

“Will, you’ve successfully completed the two-year training. Next, I’ll set up a test. If you pass this, it’ll be time for me to hand over the most important inheritance of the Reinhardt family to you. Are you ready?”

“I’m ready, Father!”

“Alright, I’ll tell you the time and place of the test tomorrow.”

In the living room.

My father and I looked at each other solemnly. This was a deal between men!

“Darling, are you setting up training for Will again? Can you give him a few days off?”

The kitchen door opened.

Mother’s voice reached us first, and then a burnt smell wafted out of the kitchen.

My father and I looked at each other and were about to escape when we saw my mother holding a plate of freshly baked cookies in front of us.

“Darling, Will, come and try my freshly baked cookies. They were baked according to the method you suggested, Will. They’re peanut-like in shape, with milk and sugar added. They’re fresh and crispy.”

“Um…”

I looked at the tray of strange objects in front of me.

Half of them were charred black, and the other half were brown. There was no fragrance of milk at all. There should have been patterns of peanut shells on them, but there was no trace of that at all.

“Dear, Will, why aren’t you guys eating? Give them taste. I’ve spent a lot of effort.”

Mother looked at my Father and me.

Father looked at me.

I think I’ve dug my own grave…

I should never have mentioned that cookies were easy to bake in front of Mother.

“Father, these are cookies of love that Mother painstakingly baked. Eat them first. I’ll go bake another batch and we’ll see who did it better!”

Before I finished, I had already slipped into the kitchen.

“Will! …Honey, look, Will is still young. I have to go to the kitchen and keep an eye on him.”

“No! Will is safe in the kitchen alone. What else can you do other than cause trouble for you? The cookies will get cold if you don’t eat them now. Darling, you have to try them. Come, open your mouth, ah~”

“Ah~ so sweet, too sweet…”

Hearing the commotion in the living room, the smile on my face widened.

I hadn’t forgotten the mission the goddess had given me, but I would enjoy this rare joy of family life for the time being.

Tomorrow.

I would begin the real test.
