Creepy Pharmacist: All my patients are scary!
Chapter 44: So, How Much Do You Think I’m Worth?
"Ah—ah—"
She gripped her hair tightly, closed her eyes, and let out wave after wave of nearly uncontrollable, excited screams.
She became completely incoherent!
She didn't even know what words to use to describe her excited and complex emotions at this moment.
Lynn stood in place, eyes wide, watching the woman who had suddenly started acting like she was having an epileptic fit.
"System, has the curse really been cleared?"
"Cleared."
"Then why does she seem even crazier than before?"
"......"
Finally, after screaming incoherently for quite a while, the Blood-Robed Evil Spirit seemed to lose her spirit, slumping to the floor. She blankly covered her face and said:
"I'm sorry, could you please step out first? Let me calm down for a moment... my emotions are quite turbulent right now..."
Lynn stared, nodding up and down to show understanding.
Then he quickly picked up the Adorable Baby and hurriedly pushed the door open to leave.
After Lynn left, the Blood-Robed Evil Spirit sat dazedly on the floor, just staring at her beautiful reflection in the mirror.
...
[Ding! You have completed the first stage mission: Blood-Robed Evil Spirit's Grudge Resolution. You obtained 500 Skeleton Coins, 500 basic experience, special reward: Evil Spirit Soul Lamp x1]
[Ding! Blood-Robed Evil Spirit's favorability toward you +10]
[Ding! Blood-Robed Evil Spirit's favorability toward you +10]
Downstairs at the table.
Lynn sat restlessly waiting, holding the Adorable Baby in his arms, his scalp tingling wave after wave.
He had been waiting here for about half an hour now.
And ever since the mission completion notification,
his ears had been ringing with a [Favorability +10] prompt every minute.
Just a few minutes ago,
the favorability had already broken through the 300 mark!
But he had no idea what psychological changes that Blood-Robed Evil Spirit was going through upstairs. Regardless, with this much favorability boost, he should be able to safely get through tonight.
"She probably won't kill me now," Lynn pondered.
Although the process had been quite complicated,
the final result was clearly developing in a positive direction.
And once he made it through tonight, when his teacher returned tomorrow, he really wouldn't need to be so on edge anymore.
After all, his teacher's strength was absolutely top-notch!
Just at that moment,
a pale hand slowly pushed open the door.
Followed by a sweet and charming voice coming from inside.
"Sorry to keep you waiting."
Although the process had been quite complicated,
In the dim candlelight, he saw the woman wearing a red dress push open the door, still with her wavy curled hair, her face carrying the unique flush of a mature woman as she gently walked out.
Seeing her, Lynn gave a mental thumbs-up.
Because compared to her previous disguise, after removing the curse, she had become even more beautifully authentic.
Under Lynn's gaze, the Blood-Robed Evil Spirit sat down opposite him, her face slightly flushed.
Unlike before when she was prone to sarcastic and mean remarks, now the Blood-Robed Evil Spirit actually looked somewhat like a soft, beautiful housewife from next door.
"I'm sorry," she said, bowing her head toward Lynn, covering her burning cheeks with a slight blush.
"I apologize for my impolite behavior toward you before, and also for having hostile intentions toward you for a while..."
"I feel absolutely ashamed!"
She's completely like a different person!! Lynn mentally screamed.
"It's fine, it's fine," Lynn coughed and said:
"Aren't we neighbors? Shouldn't neighbors live together harmoniously and understand each other?"
[Ding! Blood-Robed Evil Spirit's favorability toward you +20]
[Ding! Blood-Robed Evil Spirit's favorability toward you +20]
This isn't good...
The Blood-Robed Evil Spirit's cheeks turned even redder as she said: "Even though you say that, I still feel very guilty in my heart, and... and I never expected you could actually remove the evil spirit curse from my body..."
Hearing this, Lynn immediately seriously raised a finger and said gravely:
"I only temporarily cleared your curse, this point you must understand clearly. It's not permanent. The curse clearance duration is about 24 hours. If it's not cleared again after 24 hours, you'll return to your original state."
This point,
Lynn absolutely had to make her understand.
As a doctor, honesty is the foundation!
Of course, the most important reason was that if he didn't explain clearly beforehand, when she returned to her original state a day later, she might think he had tricked her and then deal with him harshly.
The Blood-Robed Evil Spirit also froze: "Only twenty-four hours?"
To be honest,
after being freed from the torment of the evil spirit curse, she had felt unprecedented relaxation during this half hour.
And just thinking about those hundred-plus years before, she couldn't help but shudder.
So much that she really didn't want to return to her previous appearance at all.
Lynn nodded seriously.
But seeing the Blood-Robed Evil Spirit's face about to show disappointment,
Lynn changed his tone, closing his eyes: "Although that's what I said, I can clear it for you again every 12 hours. So in other words, it's actually not impossible to make it permanent."
"Really?!" The Blood-Robed Evil Spirit's eyes lit up.

The Blood-Robed Evil Spirit's cheeks turned even redder as she said: "Even though you say that, I still feel very guilty in my heart, and... and I never expected you could actually remove the evil spirit curse from my body..."
"And we're still neighbors, living so close. If you want to maintain your current appearance long-term, you just need to come to me once daily for treatment."
"And as neighbors, I can even give you a 20% discount!"
This way it's absolutely perfect!
He just needs to use his Limited-Time Curse Removal ability daily, which not only keeps him safe from danger but also provides a stable client and income source!
No matter how you think about it, this is a guaranteed profitable business!
He's really damn clever!
"20% discount?" The Blood-Robed Evil Spirit propped her chin, smiling as she looked at Lynn:
Of course, the most important reason was that if he didn't explain clearly beforehand, when she returned to her original state a day later, she might think he had tricked her and then severely punish him.
Lynn immediately rubbed his shoulders, showing a somewhat weak expression, smiling bitterly:
"Madam, to be honest with you, although the curse removal process looks simple, it's actually very energy-consuming. Given our neighborly relationship, I could certainly waive the fee a few times..."
"But subsequent sessions will require payment. After all, we're just a small business..."

Impossible!
The Blood-Robed Evil Spirit smiled charmingly: "What's the price? Or rather, what kind of reward is needed!"
Lynn thought for a moment, smiling as he raised a finger: "One thousand Skeleton Coins per session, with your 20% discount, eight hundred Skeleton Coins. How about it? That's quite a good deal, right?"
For a high-level evil spirit like this,
Lynn didn't believe she was truly penniless.
After all, beings like the Black Knight Demon Hunter used Black Skull Coins - clearly from wealthy backgrounds.
But Lynn hadn't set the price too high either, since this was a long-term business that required steady development - you can't be too greedy!
However, the Blood-Robed Evil Spirit smiled and shook her head, fingers gently twirling her hair tips:
"I have no money."
Lynn froze.
"Madam, you must be joking," Lynn said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry:
"Someone as powerful as you, how could you possibly have no money? Don't deceive me."
The Blood-Robed Evil Spirit smiled, propping her chin: "Really no money. Because in the past, whenever I wanted something, I'd just eat the other party to save trouble. So I never needed to trade, and therefore never had money."
Lynn felt a chill down his spine.
No way!
Even with favorability already at that level,
would she still take action against him?
Lynn broke out in a cold sweat: "No money... then other things could work too. As long as the price is appropriate, anything can be traded..."
"Really?" The Blood-Robed Evil Spirit raised her beautiful eyebrows.
Lynn crossed his arms, closing his eyes: "Really. Whether it's body parts, herbs, cursed objects, or corpses - I'll evaluate everything at its proper price. As long as the price..."
But at that very moment,
Lynn suddenly felt a wave of fragrance wash over him.
His eyes snapped open.
Exclamation marks instantly appeared above Lynn's head "!!!".
He saw that somehow, the Blood-Robed Evil Spirit had leaned over the table, her nose less than a centimeter from his, lips slightly parted as a provocative fragrant breeze swept over him.
"Madam, to be honest with you, although the curse removal process looks simple, it's actually very energy-consuming. Given our neighborly relationship, I could certainly waive the fee a few times..."
