I opened a clinic in the Abyss World

"Don't be afraid, your father is here." Ivan, with tears streaming down his face, slowly raised the scissors in his hand and said softly, "Dora, it will hurt a little in a moment, but don't be afraid, your father will always be by your side."

Even if it meant death, he couldn't let Dora fall into the hands of that beast, Siba.

He had heard rumors about those poor children before.

"Haha, I'm coming in!" Suddenly, a husky's head popped out of the hole, its dark blue eyes gleaming in the candlelight.

The husky pig enjoyed watching his enemy's despair, but when he saw the scissors Ivan was holding, he immediately lost his composure.

"You damn tailor, what are you doing!" the husky roared as it gnawed at the wooden planks around its head.

With its sharp teeth and powerful bite, it was like a super chainsaw running at full power. A hole that could originally only fit a dog's head was now big enough for a person to crawl through.

The husky pig pawed at the doorway, trying to squeeze inside.

"Shiba and all you lackeys, may you all die a horrible death!" Ivan cursed in despair, raising the scissors to stab his daughter in his arms.

puff!

It was the sound of flesh being pierced.

Ivan's hand stopped instinctively; the scissors were almost touching Dora's vest.

But the sword pierced through the heart of the husky pig.

The black sword, stained with blood, looked exceptionally alluring.

The husky pig was stuck in the doorway, its wide eyes staring in disbelief at the irregular sword tip protruding from its heart. It tried to turn around, but the sword was suddenly pulled out, and its life force seemed to be drained in an instant, leaving it limp and hanging on the door.

"You launched a sneak attack?!" Outside the door, Corgi stared blankly at the black-robed man who suddenly appeared in front of him. After regaining his senses, he immediately raised the iron bar in his hand and smashed it down on the man's head.

Charlotte pulled the sword out of the husky's back and followed up with a spinning slash.

  

The thin longsword clashed with the thick iron rod.

There was no violent collision like metal striking stone, only the silky smoothness of a hot knife cutting butter.

The iron bar was severed in two by a single sword stroke, along with the corgi's short, thick neck.

The dog's head was held high, its face filled with disbelief.

Charlotte took three steps back, avoiding the spray of blood that reached several meters high.

He killed two dogs with two swords, and the battle ended more smoothly and faster than he had expected.

If that husky pig hadn't insisted on showing off its destructive talent, it wouldn't have given him such a big opening.

In the mysterious space, he fought countless life-and-death battles with the Judge, which not only improved his martial arts skills but also taught him how to spot his opponent's weaknesses.

In life-or-death battles, victory or defeat often hinges on a single moment.

Seeing the headless corpse of the corgi lying on the ground, Charlotte went to the door, ripped the husky hanging on it down and threw it aside. Looking at Ivan, who was still in a daze of shock inside, she said in a low voice, "If you don't want to die, get out of here now."

Ivan, looking at the man in black robes outside the doorway, snapped out of his daze and quickly stood up, saying gratefully, "Thank you for saving my life!"

The little girl in his arms glanced timidly at Charlotte, then immediately buried her head in her father's arms again.

Charlotte tossed her hand, and several silver coins fell into the room before turning and leaving.

Noises were already coming from the next street, and the Black Guards would probably arrive soon, so he had to leave as quickly as possible.

As for Ivan and his daughter, they can only hope for the best.

However, no one who has lived in the abyss for many years is naive and innocent; perhaps they can escape unscathed.

"Dora, pick up the silver coins on the ground. We need to leave here soon." Ivan said to his daughter, then quickly ran into the inner room and came out with a package.

"Father, where are we going? Don't we want our home anymore?" Dora picked up the six silver coins and looked at Ivan in confusion.

Ivan felt a lump in his throat, glanced around the tailor shop that had been open for over twenty years, and his eyes involuntarily reddened.

But Siba had already decided to kill them. He was lucky to be saved by the mysterious man in black robes today, but he might not be so lucky next time.

"We'll be back, but we have to leave now." Ivan draped a tattered burlap sack over Dora's face, smeared soot on her cheeks, took her hand, and strode quickly toward the door.

The father and daughter quickly disappeared into the mist.

Ivan was thin and hunched over, dressed in tattered clothes, and looked no different from the drug addicts wandering the streets. He would shrink into a corner when he encountered people, and walk quickly when no one was around. He left Eighth Alley in no time.

As Charlotte left, she glanced at the Siba Tavern on the street in the distance. Six burly kobolds stood in front of the brightly lit tavern.

Countless people revel in the bright lights and revelry, while countless others, like Ivan, suffer a fatal misstep and are filled with regret.

The potion is extremely harmful, and as a doctor, if given the chance, I would ensure the Judson family's utter destruction.

[Ding! Hidden side quest triggered: Annihilate the Judson family! Destroying one family can save thousands, why not? Quest completion reward: 10000 copper coins; one rare item!]

As Charlotte climbed over the wall, the system's voice rang in her mind.

Rare props!

This is good stuff.

The Judgment Sword and the black robe he wore were both rare items. Although their exact nature was unknown, since they were produced by the system, they were unlikely to be of poor quality.

He accepted the task!

Carol wanted to kill him; it was a life-or-death situation, and she couldn't afford to be a saint.

Charlotte quickly returned to the clinic, just across the street.

Relying on the black robe's ability to conceal their presence, they managed to evade several waves of the Hellfire Guards' search without major incident.

The streets of Towa are now teeming with Black Guardians, a testament to the Judson family's seriousness regarding the potion-stealing incident.

Avoiding the patrolling fox guards, Charlotte still managed to climb over the wall and return to her bedroom.

Lay out tonight's spoils on the table: twelve bottles of blue flame potion and a bag of coins.

Charlotte set the potions aside for the moment, opened her purse, and began patiently sorting through the money.

There was a pile of silver coins and a pile of copper coins, which were then put into a money box.

This process is enjoyable.

After deducting the six silver coins he gave to Ivan and his daughter, he had 14400 copper coins. Adding this morning's sales and his previous balance, he now had 23520 copper coins in cash.

It seems to be quite abundant.

But the thought that a third-tier magic shield costs hundreds of thousands immediately made me feel like a poor wretch.

He took off the black robe, folded it neatly, and put it back in the wardrobe. This was truly a magical artifact for night travel; it was large yet not cumbersome, and its ability to conceal one's presence was enough to fool even a kobold orc.

After changing into her home clothes, Charlotte took a bottle of Blue Flame Potion and an oil lamp and went into the laboratory next door.

This potion is contained in an ordinary glass potion bottle. It is a deep blue color and appears to be in an unstable state, like a burning blue flame, hence the name Blue Flame Potion.

Hearing the noise, the mice all huddled in the corner of the cage.

Charlotte went to the cage and pulled the plug.

A unique fragrance quickly wafted out, like the scent of flowers, or perhaps a woman's fragrance, dreamlike and ethereal, giving one a light and airy feeling just by smelling it.

Charlotte, who had been squinting, suddenly opened her eyes and looked at the potion that had been placed to her lips without her noticing. Cold sweat dripped down her back.
