Man With Super Medical Skill (Matthew) novel Chapter 3599

Matthew smiled as he watched Weston.

As the small group continued on, a village slowly came into view.

Unfortunately, unlike other villages, this one had no smoke rising from chimneys—no signs of cooking or warmth.

Instead, it felt cold. Lifeless.

As the three of them walked further in, the villagers took notice.

A burly man stepped out, eyeing Weston warily.

"What are you doing here?"

Even though Weston had sworn a binding oath the night before, trust didn't come easily—especially for someone once aligned with a cruel regime.

Weston met the man's gaze and replied firmly, "These two gentlemen wanted to take a look around. Has Hanno woken up yet?"

The man hesitated, then glanced at the group.

"Wait here. I'll go check."

The three nodded, watching the man disappear into the village at a brisk pace.

"You kept your promise," Matthew said softly. "There's light in their eyes—hope for a better life."

Surprisingly, Weston scratched his head sheepishly at the compliment.

"I was never comfortable with the whole slave system," he admitted. "But with my position back then, I couldn't exactly speak out against it."

He gestured toward the village.

"When they returned last night, I tried to give back whatever supplies I could. It's not much, but I wanted to help in some small way."

They stood in silence, gazing at the half-abandoned village before them.

A few minutes passed before Matthew spotted someone approaching from a distance.

It was an old man, slowly making his way forward, supported carefully by the burly man from before.

Weston's face lit up in recognition.

"Good morning, Hanno."

The old man looked at Weston, then at Matthew and Ryan standing behind him.
