Chapter 236
Hearing that, Seth ducked his head. To his surprise, the needle was sticking out of the acupoint located around the center of his palm. Although two-thirds of the needle was inside of him, not a drop of blood could be seen.
In fact, he felt no pain at all.
“What the heck is this?!” He stared at his hand as he realized the needle was still moving. The realization made him uneasy, so he plucked out the needle and threw it on the ground. “Brat!” he roared, “When did you stick this in me?”
“Forget when I did it,” Kingsley answered with a smirk. “Answer me first.”
Before Seth could say anything, Kingsley continued, “That surgery you mentioned, is it a very precise operation in which great skill is required?”
“Of course!” Pride was written all over Seth’s face. “This is considered microsurgery, so it requires a lot of skill and precision for it to succeed.”
Then, as if realizing something was off about the question, he asked, “Why are you asking this?”
“Nothing much.” Kingsley shrugged. “I only wanted to know if a person with shaky hands could operate.”
“Are you even a doctor?” Seth burst out laughing.
“If you have shaky hands, you cannot even perform an appendectomy, let alone such highly technical operations…” He paused in the middle of his speech and looked down to find his right hand trembling slightly.
It was actually trembling at the same rate as the moving needle!
Furthermore…
No matter how hard he tried, he could not stop it!
“What… What is going on?”
Seth’s mind went blank as all thoughts escaped him.
He had always been so proud of his steady hands.
In fact, Tristan Zinkleigh even praised him for them, saying his hands were born to operate with them. They were a blessing from the gods!
However, they were currently trembling uncontrollably.
This meant his career as a surgeon was over!
“No! How can this be? My hand… Why can’t I stop my hand from shaking?” Seth held up his right hand and cried, “What did you do to me? Why is my right hand shaking?”
Everyone’s faces went pale when they saw his hand quivering.
“Is… Could this be the doing of that needle?”
“Whoa! That is just terrifying. He killed a doctor’s future in a snap!”
Everyone’s eyes were instantly filled with deep-seated fear as they turned to look at Kingsley.
Most of their jobs required them to be in the operating theater. Hence, no one wanted to make an enemy out of someone that powerful.
Anyway, even if they did not have to operate, no one wanted to be cursed with trembling hands for the rest of their lives.
It would be a fate worse than death!
When Blake and the others realized what had happened, they were equally shocked and excited about it.
Kingsley had proven once more how powerful he was.
They were now even more determined to be his disciples.
“My hand… Save me!”
Just as everyone was frozen with shock, Seth flung himself at Kingsley’s feet like a madman.
“Dr. Nicholson, please! I know how powerful you are now! I admit defeat! I truly do!” He howled as he held up his right hand.
“Please cure my hand! I am begging you! I do not want to be useless!”
Kingsley looked down his nose at Seth. “You should be thankful I did not slash your hand for touching Alice!”
There was absolutely no way he would cure Seth’s shaky hands.
“No…” Seth slumped over with despair. He began to bang his head on the floor. “Please! I beg you… Please save me!”
Kingsley frowned in disgust and said to Ronald, “The event is about to start, right? Have him thrown out!”
“Yes, sir!” Ronald hurriedly replied. “Security! Where are the guards?”
The security guards had been standing nearby this whole time. When they heard Ronald’s shouts, they immediately ran over.
“We heard everything just now,” they said. “We will throw him out right away! We promise to leave him somewhere far away!”
Two burly men swiftly moved to yank Seth’s limp body up from the ground.
By now, Seth had used up all his energy wailing and had no more strength left in him to struggle. Just like that, he was dragged out of the room by the security guards.
