Hearing Ren Isana's inquiry, Miach replied with a gentle expression, "I can. Although it's a bit tricky, I will do my best to help."
This old man wasn't evil; in fact, he was incredibly kind. Miach was naturally willing to heal him, especially since the man's status was clearly quite high.
With this connection, his life in this world would be much more comfortable. Considering all these factors, he decided to go all out in treating this gentleman.
Receiving Miach's confirmation, both Ren Isana and Shizuka Hiratsuka breathed a sigh of relief. Ren Isana immediately said, "Then we'll be troubling you. If you need anything at all, please just let me know!"
However, the moment he said that, Shizuka Hiratsuka smacked him on the head. She scolded him in exasperation, "Let *you* know? I'm the one handling this, obviously. If you need anything, you tell *me*!"
Was that something he could just casually offer? Shizuka Hiratsuka was speechless. *Do you have any idea how absurdly valuable a favor from you is? It might not seem like much now, but that definitely won't be the case in the future.*
*And you're making a promise to a god who has lived for who knows how many years? Who do you think you are?*
Besides, this was her teacher. If she let her student handle this kind of thing, where would her pride be? So, Shizuka Hiratsuka directly stopped Ren Isana and told Miach to come to her instead.
Having lived for so many years, Miach naturally understood the underlying meaning. He smiled and said, "I don't need anything. It will just consume some Divine Power, and the treatment might take a bit of time."
He didn't mind these details. If he cured this director and actually had a request in the future, would these people really refuse him even if he hadn't asked for anything upfront?
Absolutely not. So it didn't matter whether he stated terms or not. He hadn't even thought about it; it was simply his instinct as a healer to save the patient in front of him.
"Then we'll be in your care, Miach-san," Ren Isana said, breathing a sigh of relief and earnestly entrusting the treatment to him.
Miach nodded, stepped forward, and began treating Director Ken. Instantly, the office was filled with a dense aura of Divinity.
He began injecting his Divine Power into Director Ken's body. In Ren Isana and Shizuka Hiratsuka's perception, as Miach's Divine Power flowed in, the Magic Power radiating from Director Ken grew noticeably denser.
The treatment didn't take too long, stopping after just five minutes. Miach looked at Director Ken and said, "We'll stop here for now. Next, you'll need to take medicine. However, I'm not familiar with the properties of the herbs in this world, so I'll need to learn about them before I can write a prescription and prepare the potions."
Miach explained the current situation. Using his Divine Power had only partially healed the man; the rest required medicinal support. After all, Divine Power wasn't omnipotent.
"What kind of medicinal properties do you need? Just tell me, Miach-san. I actually know quite a bit about the herbs in our world." This was where Ren Isana could step up and help.
To learn potion-making, he had memorized the properties of numerous herbs and plants in this world. Having his phone automatically play audio lessons every night wasn't just for show.
Even for ordinary plants, Ren Isana knew their effects. Plus, having read Miach's notebook, he was also familiar with the various herbs and properties from the other world.
Hearing Ren Isana's offer, Miach immediately listed a series of medicinal names. These were all recorded in his notebook, and since Ren Isana had read his book, he naturally understood their functions.
After listening to Miach's explanation, Ren Isana began discussing it with him, listing similar herbs and their effects from this world. Although there were slight differences, the core effects were practically identical.
Shizuka Hiratsuka didn't interrupt them. Instead, she stepped forward and asked, "Director Ken, how do you feel?"
Hearing her question, Director Ken smiled warmly. "What can I say? He truly lives up to the title of the God of Healing. I feel much lighter now. It seems this old body of mine will be able to live for a while longer."
Honestly, he hadn't expected such a pleasant surprise. If he could be cured, who would actually want to die? More than that, he saw even greater hope.
The arrival of this God of Healing was a monumental blessing for them. This trip to the other world had exceeded all expectations. His initial choice had indeed been the right one.
Miach didn't pay attention to their conversation. After listening to the list of herbs Ren Isana provided, he fell into deep thought. "The effects are slightly different, and some don't quite meet the expected potency. We'll need to add a few more varieties to make up for the deficiencies."
Miach then named two more herbs. Fortunately, there were perfect substitutes for these in this world as well, and Ren Isana immediately provided their names and properties without hesitation.
Hearing this, Miach nodded. "Then there won't be any problems. Go ahead and buy these. If possible, get a large quantity, because your director will need to drink this medicine for a very long time."
He finalized the prescription. Hearing this, Ren Isana immediately nodded. "Alright, I'll go buy them right now. Director Ken, I'll be away for a bit."
With that, Ren Isana cast [Teleportation Magic] and vanished from the spot. The herbs he had discussed with Miach could all be bought at Baoshutang, and teleporting there directly wouldn't take much time at all.
Although some of the herbs were expensive, that wasn't an issue. Ren Isana was a strategic partner with Baoshutang; he got the insider price.
Watching Ren Isana simply use [Spatial Magic] to run errands, Director Ken sighed helplessly. "Couldn't he just have someone deliver them? Why did he need to make the trip himself?"
Hearing Director Ken's words, the corners of Shizuka Hiratsuka's mouth curled up slightly. "That kid actually cares about you quite a bit. I told him about your situation before, and he's kept it in mind ever since."
Shizuka Hiratsuka was happy that Ren Isana cared so much about Director Ken. At this moment, Miach also smiled and said, "Ren Isana is a very special person!"
From the first time he met Ren Isana, he knew the boy was unique. How should he put it? Ren Isana was the type who would treat you well if you treated him well, but if you pissed him off... he would probably just kill you on the spot.
Just look at Apollo—didn't that guy end up completely wrecked? It was precisely because of this that Miach was willing to help Ren Isana without hesitation, even gifting him the book he had written himself.
Hearing Miach's assessment, Director Ken smiled. How could he not know? It was simply exchanging sincerity for sincerity. Because of this, they couldn't allow any accidents to happen to Ren Isana's safety. Director Ken invited Miach to sit down, brewed some tea, and began chatting with him.
Meanwhile, Ren Isana had teleported directly from the school to the vicinity of Baoshutang. His sudden appearance via magic startled quite a few people. Many passersby who saw him teleport in stared in astonishment.
A spatial mage? Wasn't that way too rare? Some pedestrians couldn't help but size him up, but Ren Isana ignored them, pushed open the doors to Baoshutang, and started stocking up.
After purchasing the entire list of required herbs and paying nearly three million, Ren Isana stuffed the herbs into his Spatial Ring, cast his magic, and vanished from the spot.
Watching him disappear, the cashier girl was left dumbfounded. *Good heavens, that student just now was a big shot? He used [Spatial Magic]?*
Ren Isana came and went quickly. It wasn't long before he reappeared in the director's office and took out the massive pile of herbs. This time, Miach personally stepped up to brew the potions.
Because these potions required his Divine Power as a catalyst, only he could do it. Ren Isana could only stand quietly to the side, watching and secretly learning a few tricks. He could only marvel that the God of Healing truly lived up to his name.
The potions he brewed were completely different from normal ones. The finished liquids literally glowed—one look and you knew they were extraordinary.
Miach packed all the brewed potions into the medicine bags Ren Isana had conveniently bought. He prepared over a hundred bags on the spot, handed them all to Director Ken, and instructed, "Drink three bags of this potion every day. Drink the next one only after you feel the medicinal effects of the previous one have been fully absorbed. Once you finish the third bag, you don't need to drink anymore for that day."
Hearing Miach's instructions, Director Ken nodded. "Alright, I understand. It looks like I'll be drinking this for quite a long time."
At only three bags a day, and with over a hundred bags here, barring any accidents, he would be drinking this medicine non-stop for the next month or so.
"Yes. I'll come back in seven days to give you another treatment with my Divine Power. By the time you finish all this medicine, you should be just about fully recovered," Miach said with absolute confidence.
The only reason he called it "tricky" was because of the time it would take. For him, any illness that couldn't be cured with Divine Power on the very same day was considered a troublesome illness. Director Ken's condition was undoubtedly on the highly difficult end of the spectrum.
Of course, that was only from his perspective. In this world, even the best doctors were completely helpless against Director Ken's condition. Yet Miach only needed a month to cure him completely—an existence that defied all logic.
"Thank you for your help, Miach-san." Hearing that it would only take a month to recover, the heavy stone in Shizuka Hiratsuka's heart finally dropped.
"Miach-san, how about you establish your Familia in this world as well? When the time comes, I'll have someone arrange a place for you on Nexus Island. You can recruit members and expand your Familia there," Director Ken proposed, looking at Miach.
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, Ren Isana and the others would be attending university on Nexus Island. If possible, he hoped this God of Healing would go there too and develop his Familia. That way, he could have talented students join Miach's Familia to learn his medical skills. No matter how he looked at it, it was a massive profit.
Hearing Director Ken's words, Miach smiled warmly. "That would be wonderful. If you don't mind, could I also become a teacher there?"
He was never stingy about passing on his medical knowledge. Director Ken's suggestion for him to establish a Familia was essentially for this exact purpose, which suited Miach perfectly.
Hearing Miach say this, Director Ken grew even more excited and immediately made the executive decision. "Excellent! Then, Miach-san, on behalf of Dimensional Nexus University, I officially invite you to become a special lecturer in the medical department."
This statement left Ren Isana thoroughly confused. *On behalf of Dimensional Nexus University? Good heavens, this director isn't just the principal of this high school? He has high status over there too?*
But on second thought, it wasn't all that surprising. Given Director Ken's standing and his series of calculated moves... it wouldn't be strange at all if he held a high position at Dimensional Nexus University.
*It seems I still know way too little. I need to look up the specific backgrounds of these teachers when I get back. I've never really looked into it before.*
Seeing that the two were about to continue their chat, Ren Isana spoke up. "Director Ken, I'll take my leave first. You two take your time chatting. I still have the others to arrange over there."
Hearing this, Director Ken nodded. "Alright, you head back first. Take good care of our guests for me."
After saying goodbye, Ren Isana walked out of the office and headed toward his classroom. Shizuka Hiratsuka followed him out shortly after. Catching up to him, she patted his shoulder and said, "Good job. When my classmates find out what you did today, they'll be incredibly grateful to you!"
Hearing Shizuka Hiratsuka say this, Ren Isana shook his head. "It was nothing, just lending a hand. It would be a real shame to have Miach come all the way here and not ask for his help."
Besides, the director had treated him well and never shortchanged him on any benefits he deserved, even constantly increasing them. Ren Isana held a deep respect for the director.
"By the way, Hiratsuka-sensei, does the director have connections at Dimensional Nexus University too?" Unable to contain his curiosity, Ren Isana finally asked.
Shizuka Hiratsuka laughed. "Of course he does. He's the former principal of Dimensional Nexus University! He only stepped down and came here because of his health..."
Saying this, Shizuka Hiratsuka suddenly remembered something. "When you go over there in a while, my classmates will take very good care of you. Let me tell you, 80% of the teachers at Dimensional Nexus University are Director Ken's students!"
Hearing this sudden bombshell, Ren Isana's face was full of question marks. *Is it really that absurd? If I go there, doesn't that mean I can do whatever I want? With so many of Director Ken's students there, and my relationship with him... Good heavens!!*
"Director Ken really has students all over the world!" Ren Isana couldn't help but marvel. It was always easier to get things done when you had people on the inside, let alone when 80% of them were Director Ken's people. This was simply fantastic.
"Of course. Ever since the spiritual energy revival, many of us from that batch became teachers. This was heavily influenced by Director Ken!" Speaking of this, Shizuka Hiratsuka couldn't help but sigh emotionally.
Their generation had received a lot of care from Director Ken. Because of this, everyone deeply respected him. Many were only able to break through thanks to his help, especially those in the magic department.
The magic they currently possessed was basically all learned from Director Ken. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call them his direct disciples. After all, Director Ken's [Magic Echo] talent allowed him to master countless types of magic, so naturally, he taught many students.
The reason Director Ken valued Ren Isana so highly was probably because the kid's learning talent was equally absurd. The more magic he learned, the stronger he became. If they nurtured Ren Isana, he might be able to nurture even more people in the future.
The two chatted as they walked back to the classroom. When Ren Isana returned, the room was a bit chaotic. A group of students was showing documentaries to Ais and the others, introducing them to this world.
Hestia was currently sitting in the empty seat next to Ren Isana's, with Ais sitting in front of her. The rest of the guests were scattered among the empty desks in the classroom.
Seeing Ais and the others sitting in a classroom wearing full armor, Ren Isana couldn't help but find the sight a bit bizarre. They looked completely out of place among a bunch of students in school uniforms.
Ren Isana walked straight to his seat. Seeing him, Hestia happily stood up and made some room for him to slide in.
Shizuka Hiratsuka followed him in and turned off the multimedia computer. Once Ren Isana sat down, she announced, "I have something to tell you all. Several Familias will be establishing branches on our side. When the time comes, if any of your relatives or friends want to join, you can introduce them."
Keep the goodies within the family, after all. Everyone was well aware of the effects of the Falna. If anyone in the class had relatives or friends who wanted it, they could directly recommend them.
As for the Hestia Familia, they shouldn't even think about it. Hestia probably wouldn't accept anyone else anyway. Her standards had already been spoiled by the students in this class. If she recruited anyone in the future, it would likely be based on their ridiculous standards.
Shizuka Hiratsuka's words surprised everyone, including Ren Isana. He couldn't help but ask, "Loki and the others didn't come over, right? How are they supposed to grant the Falna?"
The others nodded eagerly upon hearing this. This was indeed a problem. How could a Falna be granted without the god present? They couldn't possibly send everyone over to the other side just to get the Falna and bring them back, right?
"We've already prepared for this. Actually, even if the god isn't present, the Falna can still be granted. We brought items they gave us that allow us to bestow the Falna," Riveria spoke up at this moment.
"It's those potions. They contain their blood, which can be used to grant and update the Falna," Hestia explained to Ren Isana from beside him.
Hearing this, Ren Isana immediately understood. If that was the case, then there really wasn't a problem. This was a great thing, too. Surely many people would be thrilled to grind monsters and level up, right?
"Exactly. So if you have any relatives or friends, you can introduce them to Riveria or Tsubaki. Hmm... if they want to be doctors, just introduce them to Naaza," Shizuka Hiratsuka said, glancing at Naaza, who was sitting quietly in the corner.
