Esmeralda couldn't believe what she was hearing. It was as if these peasants knew even better than her about healing people!
It was at this point that Esmeralda knew that she had to do something big in order to make herself more important than the rest of the people here.
She immediately summoned her leeches. These were magical creatures that could heal a person for a bit of time using the natural mana in their body.
Upon showing the leeches, a lot of the people began to shut up. They watched as the leeches attached to the man began to make his skin tone become a lot less pale and return to its normal color.
Esmeralda immediately turned up her chin as soon as she did this. She had basically showed off that normal apothecary still worked!
Of course, she had to 'cheat' a little bit by using the magical leeches. But what was she to do? People didn't believe her and instead chose to use those modern medicine that Evie and that Michael guy was trying to spread.
