Infinite Skin System: Starting as An Eldritch Knight-Chapter 63: Rich Doctor

There was a knock on the door.

"Please. Come in." Carter said.

A man in a well dressed suit came inside.

"Dr. Victor Frankenstein! It’s a pleasure to meet you."

They shook hands.

"Likewise. May I ask for your name, Mister..."

The man chuckled gently, "Doctor actually. I’m Doctor Larry Hugo. I wasn’t in the Institute when you brought Dr. Parker inside."

"Ah. Dr. Hugo. I did hear about you. Your work in Blood Transfusion is very commendable."

Larry scratched his head. "My work is nothing compared to you, Dr. Frankenstein. You have solved a mystery that the entire Anglas can’t solve."

Carter shook his head, "I didn’t solve it, Dr. Hugo. There were many more brilliant men before me that solved it and perfected it. I only had excellent teachers."

"Oh. How much would I pay to be taught by those teachers as well."

Larry sighed. Then he placed a document and a medallion on the table.

"As the board has decided, they would like to offer you a position in the Institute. We don’t have a title for you yet since all roles are filled. But feel free to tell us one you have it.

This is a Certification and an Enthrall Medallion. We know we don’t deserve your genius but we hope you can stay and join us."

Carter picked up the document. It was easier and much quicker than he thought. He saw an opportunity and showed his skills to the right people. Now, he had gained an identity within this world.

"Thank you, Dr. Hugo. Please give my thanks to the board.

And of course, I would love to join the Enthrall Institute. We’re colleagues now."

"Haha. Yes, we are!"

"As for my title, I think surgeon has a nice ring to it. A doctor with specialty in surgery."

Larry rubbed his chin, "We have an Herbalist Head. A Pathologist Head. A Psychologist Head. There’s also that General Physician Department. We really don’t have a Surgery Departments yet.

How do you feel about becoming the Head of Surgeons, Dr. Frankenstein?"

"That would be my honor."

Words about a new doctor arriving in the Institute quickly spread in the city of Luandon. Doctor Victor Frankenstein with his supreme surgery skill and knowledge. He had saved Dr. William Parker, a very beloved physician within the city.

For a few days, Carter didn’t go to the quarantined zones. Instead, he stayed at the Enthrall Institute to fulfill his role as the head of surgeon. He taught many doctors the proper techniques and knowledge of surgery. He also treated many patients.

Each action contributed to raise the reputation of Dr. Frankenstein in Luandon even more. The Institute paid him 50 pounds per week, which was 700 pounds per year. A salary that exceeded most salary men in this world. That wasn’t counting the teachings and personal patient that Carter also might have.

He officially no longer needed to worry about money.

Carter was working inside his office at night. He was analyzing the Extracted Corruption. He began to learn more and more about its properties each and every single day. The time it took for him to actually make use of it was closer and closer.

Suddenly, there was a knock on his door, "Dr. Frankenstein! We need your help."

"Coming, Nurse Jenner." Carter recognized that voice. It was the voice of the head nurse of the Enthrall Institute.

He quickly cleaned up his bench and hid the Extracted Corruption inside the Brewer’s Chest.

Carter was wearing the doctor’s white coat at the time.

Nurse Jenner led him to the emergency room. He spotted a few men standing outside the room, covering in blood that wasn’t theirs.

His nose twitched gently as he smelled something very familiar. The smell of wet dog.

Carter frowned deeply.

’Same smell on Primrose. Are they the same types of Awaken?’ 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

The men approached Carter.

"Are you Dr. Frankenstein?" A man said.

"I am." Carter nodded.

"My friend lost a lot of blood. Please perform your miracle and save him!"

"I will do my best. Please stay out here."

Carter put on his surgery gown and entered the emergency room.

The patient was a young man that got his stomach carved out by some sort of beast.

"What happened? Was he bitten by a lion or something?" Carter said.

"The relatives of the patient said they encountered some wolves in the forest." Nurse Jenner said.

"Wolves, huh?"

’I wonder if they’re werewolves. It’s the only explanation on why they smell like dog.’

The guts of the patient poured out of his stomach. Luckily, his guts weren’t damaged yet so no harmful toxin had leaked out.

"Give me my surgery knife, Nurse Jenner."

"Yes, doctor!"

Carter fulfilled his duty as before. The nurses and doctors assisted him with utmost concentration. They admired him and were always impressed to observe him work.

The patient was saved. For now.

Carter checked the temperature of the patient after the surgery. He was hot. Usually hot for a human. Primrose was also the same.

’They are definitely not human’

"Nurse Jenner. Take some of the patient’s blood so I can check what his blood type is."

"Of course, doctor."

He needed the blood to help him, that was true. But he also wanted it for analyst. Blood was the source of all power in this world. He had a feeling he would find out more about these ’werewolves’ via their blood.

Carter quickly determined the blood type of the patient and had a nurse fetched him some blood in the blood bank. The Blood Transfusion was a very simple process and he had taught everyone in the Institute to do it.

Carter left the nurse to finish the Blood Transfusion. He went out and met with the patient’s ’relatives’ instead.

"How is he, Dr. Frankenstein?" The man said.

"He is stable. We are giving him new blood at the moment. He should be fine but he needs a few more days to recover."

"That is a relief. We knew we should have come to you, Dr. Frankenstein. No other doctor could save him like you do."

"One question." Carter said. "The temperature of the patient is very high. But he doesn’t seem to be in a fever. Does he have any medical history about high body temperature?"

The men froze instantly as Carter mentioned it. He could read the worry in their faces.

A man clear his throat and said, "We... Our family has a natural high temperature compared to normal people."

Carter smiled knowingly, "I see..."
