2. Two Crazy Men?

The man wearing a neat black suit, whose right arm was being held by Ethan, replied, "I'll explain later. Now, let me call a doctor to examine you."

Ethan was stunned, hesitating to let go of the man as if worried that he would run away.

But he heard the man speak again in a reassuring tone, "I won't go anywhere. Your health is far more important right now."

Hearing this, Ethan decided to let him go. He was convinced that the man was most likely the one who had helped him.

After all, his head still hurt so much. Letting the doctor examine him would clearly be beneficial for him.

"Thank you, please wait a moment," the man said in a formal tone, as if he were talking to his superior.

Actually, Ethan could hardly keep his mouth shut and not ask the young man immediately, but he tried to restrain himself.

Two minutes later, Ethan was surprised by the arrival of a group of doctors and nurses who entered his room.

Ethan, who was surprised, then realized something. Apparently, the room he was staying in was quite luxurious. 

In addition to a very large, soft sofa for visitors, there was a mini kitchen. Besides that, there was a set of dining tables that made the room feel even more like a luxurious hotel room.

Oh, how am I going to pay this hospital bill later? Ethan thought, confused.

However, when he remembered that he wasn't the one who chose the room with super luxurious facilities, Ethan breathed a sigh of relief.

Let whoever brought me here pay this hospital bill, Ethan thought to himself.

"Please allow me to examine you, Sir," one of the doctors with glasses perched on his nose said.

Ethan turned his head and nodded.

The doctor began the examination, which lasted several moments. 

Ethan simply complied and resolved that whoever had brought him to the hospital would have to cover all his medical expenses.

After nearly an hour of thorough examination, the two men Ethan had seen when he opened his eyes reentered the room. 

"Everything is done, Mr. Meyer," the chief doctor in the group to the man in the black suit.

The man who was called nodded, "You may go, Doctor Daniel."

The doctor bowed politely. 

Ethan frowned at the doctor's attitude. 

"Wait, Doctor," Ethan said, holding Daniel back.

Daniel turned to his patient, who was trying to sit up. 

Joss, a man who was slightly taller than Xavier, walked over to Ethan to help him without being asked.

Ethan did not protest.

"Yes, Sir? Do you have any other questions, Sir?" Daniel asked.

Ethan swallowed hard and asked, "Didn't you check my back, Doctor?" 

Xavier immediately glanced at Joss. Ethan caught the small movement and became even more puzzled.

"Your back is fine, Sir. There are no broken bones. We've checked it twice," Daniel explained.

Ethan furrowed his brow, "Are you sure, doctor? There are no burns? Because I felt like my back was burning yesterday."

Daniel looked confused, "There are no burns on your back, Sir."

How strange! Yesterday it clearly felt very hot, like it was burning, Ethan thought to himself.

Daniel turned to Yasa, "Sir, do you want me to do another examination?" 

Xavier shook his head firmly and said again, "You can leave this room, doctor."

Daniel did not argue and within seconds he was out of Ethan's room with the rest of his entourage.

After the doctors and nurses left, Ethan looked at the two unfamiliar men in turn.

"You must have a lot of questions," Xavier said.

Ethan just sighed softly.

Xavier understood completely, so he said, "In that case, allow us to introduce ourselves first."

Xavier bowed respectfully to Ethan, who stared at him in surprise. "I am Xavier Meyer, currently serving as CEO of Meyer Corporation, and this is Joss Fisher, my personal assistant."

Joss bowed to him in the same manner as Xavier.

CEO? Ethan was shocked to hear this. 

A CEO of a large company bowing respectfully to him? What was going on here? Ethan blinked repeatedly in confusion.

"Did you help me?" Ethan asked again.

"Yes. I found you lying on the side of the road with many serious injuries. I brought you to this hospital," Xavier explained, refraining from being rash.

"Why did you help me?" Ethan asked again.

"Because you are the heir to the Dragon King's knowledge," Xavier replied.

For a split second, Ethan's jaw dropped. But then he said, "What does that mean?"

"Oh my god! Please don't joke around!"

Xavier had expected this to happen. Ethan would not believe him as easily as he had thought.

"I'm not joking, Sir. You are truly the heir to the Dragon King's knowledge, extraordinary medical knowledge," Xavier said.

Ethan chuckled. "You ... don't make jokes. Hey, man. Extraordinary medical knowledge? If that were the case, how could I be lying here if I had that knowledge?"

He shook his head and looked at Xavier with a strange look.

Joss, who had been silent until then, plucked up the courage to speak. "We can prove it, Sir, if you are truly the heir to the Dragon King's knowledge."

"Proof? What proof do you mean?" Ethan raised his right eyebrow.

Joss turned to Xavier as if asking for permission to explain.

When Xavier nodded, Joss said, "We can prove that you are truly the heir to the Dragon King's knowledge. The God of Medicine."

The Dragon King's knowledge? What Medical God? Come on, Ethan rolled his eyes lazily. Even so, Ethan remained composed.

"Tell me!" Ethan finally decided to give them a chance, even though he was sure that the two people in front of him were just crazy people with a lot of fantasies in their heads.

"The proof is on your back," Joss said.

Ethan, who was about to laugh, suddenly fell silent. "What do you mean?"

"You asked the doctor about your back feeling like it was burning. That ... is not a burn. It is a sign that dragon energy is awakening within your body," Joss said with a serious expression.

Ethan swallowed hard. 

He really didn't want to believe such nonsense. But, strangely, he asked, "A mark that reappears? What kind of mark do you mean?"

Joss turned once more to Xavier, asking for permission again.

However, Xavier did not give permission. Ethan gritted his teeth in annoyance.

Instead, Xavier chose to ask Ethan, "If I tell you, will you believe us right away?"
