Chapter 1997
"My decision is final! Scott, Leon might be young, but he's incredibly gifted, especially in medicine! He has already
found a way to counter the Reaper's Breath. I'm certain that appointing him as the leader will help with the
mission!" Alfred deadpanned.
"What?!"
"Mister Glasbey, did you just say that he found a way to counter the Reaper's Breath?”
"Seriously?!"
The three were stunned.
Given the Dragon Corps' power, it would never have considered Poisonwielder as a threat if he was only a

region's help mainly because of Poisonwielder's unparalleled skills in poison-making.
Among all poisons he had, his Reaper's Breath was colorless and odorless, so one would easily fall victim to it.
On top of that, Poisonwielder was sly and experienced in hiding his tracks, so the Dragon Corps would still find it
difficult even if they sent a few Platinum Dragon Guards after Poisonwielder.
On the contrary, if Leon truly had the means to counter the effect of the Reaper's Breath, Poisonwielder would be
like a maimed predator and could be defeated with ease.
"Leon, you've produced the Essential Detox Pills that you told me about, right? Why don't you show them to the
team?" Alfred said to Leon.
"Yeah. I've produced them!’ Leon nodded and took out a jade flask before shaking a few pills out of it to show the
others.
"Mister Wolf, are you claiming that these white pills can counter the Reaper's Breath?"
Scott and the other two studied the pills skeptically.
"I suppose so! I don't know which plants Poisonwielder used to produce his Reaper's Breath, so there's no guarantee
that the Essential Detox Pills can counter the poison. However, even if the Essential Detox Pills fail to nullify the
poison completely, it can, at the very least, suppress the poison's effects for some time," Leon said.
"You suppose?’
The excitement and anticipation in their hearts were instantly replaced by disappointment.
They had thought that Leon had truly come up with a solution to counter the Reaper's Breath but soon realized that
they got excited for no reason.

The Reaper's Breath was a strong poison. Even Leon could not guarantee that the Essential Detox Pills would work,
so the three were hardly convinced.
Since there was no proof as to whether Leon was telling the truth, they suspected that he was only bragging.
"Leon, distribute the Essential Detox Pills to the others, just in case!” Alfred said.
"Oh, sure," Leon said before handing the other five members of the team two pills each.
The team was speechless.
Oliver and Abraham worked under Leon and had always trusted him fully. However, Scott, Chad, and Jerry felt
differently.
They were certain that Leon did not earn his status, and none of them could place their trust in him nor believe that
the Essential Detox Pills could counter the effect of the Reaper's Breath.
However, since Alfred and Leon only meant well, they hesitated before accepting the pills despite their skepticism
over the pills' efficacy.
