Aiden Finnegan the Alchemist in Delcord novel Chapter 151

Angelina observed the cryptic conversation between the two, her face displaying surprise. She then turned to Karin and inquired, "Karin, what are you two talking about?"

Karin leaned in and whispered a few words into Angelina's ear. Angelina's gaze then shifted to Aiden, her eyes reflecting a different emotion. With a half-smile forming on her face, she remarked, "It seems like you're not completely clueless after all!"

Aiden remained composed as he looked back at Angelina and replied, "I'm a man!"

"Well, I couldn't tell!" Angelina responded playfully.

"What a devastating blow!" Karin laughed, adding, "Superficially minor, but highly insulting!"

However, Aiden, seemingly unaffected, gazed innocently at Angelina and asked, "Must you hurt me every time?"

"Hmph!" Angelina snorted coldly.

Despite the chilly reception, Aiden managed a faint smile. He understood the underlying meaning in Angelina's words, but her change in attitude left him slightly uneasy.

Aiden's expression turned serious again as he continued to inquire, "Karin, where did you get this religious amulet? Did you accidentally find it, or did you buy it yourself?"

Noticing Aiden's serious demeanor, Angelina chimed in, "Right, Karin. When I asked you last night, you didn't say anything. Can you tell us now?"

"I... I..." Karin stammered as both of them questioned her simultaneously.

Upon noticing her hesitation, Aiden spoke firmly, "Karin, if you don't explain the situation to me, I won't be able to treat your condition."

Influenced by Aiden's resolute words, Karin finally spoke, "Aiden, can you really cure me? But it doesn't seem like an illness!"

Aiden explained calmly, "Do you remember when I mentioned the evil Yin energy yesterday? Well, I specifically mentioned it for you. I had a hunch that you might have something like that within you. The Wardom culture has a rich history, and traditional medicine holds profound knowledge. Many things can actually be explained scientifically, but you subconsciously believe that they cannot be resolved."

Karin nodded and added, "That's correct. I opened a beauty salon in Cothana. For the first half of the year, the business faced significant sluggishness. As I noticed my funds nearing depletion, anxiety set in. At that point, a friend suggested obtaining a religious amulet from Trendale. They emphasized that numerous celebrities possessed such items.

"So, driven by desperation, I decided to give it a try. Although the business did experience a notable improvement after acquiring the religious amulet, the effect was only temporary. Later on, I encountered other problems, so I ended up selling the shop! It was after selling the shop that my nightmares began!"

After Karin finished speaking, a look of fear once again appeared on her face.

Aiden nodded and then asked, "What was the method of offering when you obtained the religious amulet? Did they ask you to offer blood?"

"How did you know?" Karin looked at Aiden in shock.

Aiden sighed and explained, "This amulet forcibly alters the magnetic field mechanism within the human body. Even if it does have an effect, it is only temporary. Trendale religious amulets are divided into two types—positive and negative. Yours seems to be a 'negative' amulet, as I observed last night!"

"Aiden, what do 'positive' and 'negative' religious amulets mean?" Angelina asked curiously.

Just as Aiden was about to respond, Reece and Helena arrived for work, but Ethan was absent.

Upon their arrival, Aiden nodded and said, "You've come at the right time, Reece. I'll be treating Karin later, and I'll need your assistance in preparing a medicinal bath."

"Okay!" Reece nodded.

Helena pouted and muttered, "What's with the attitude?"

Nevertheless, she left the medical center to buy the curtains.

Aiden turned to Karin and reassured her, "I will treat you later."

"Aiden, can you really cure Karin?" Angelina asked anxiously.

"Yes!" Aiden nodded and added, "But the treatment process requires Karin to undress."

"What did you say?" Karin exclaimed, looking shocked at Aiden.

"You need to undress," Aiden repeated.

Upon hearing this, Karin immediately regained her composure and retorted, "As you wish!"

"Aiden, why does she need to undress? Can't she keep her clothes on, especially considering Karin is a girl?" Angelina asked, expressing surprise.

In fact, another concern lingered in Angelina's mind. What if Aiden catches a glimpse of Karin's completely exposed body? Would it become awkward if they met again in the future? Could it spark some feelings for Aiden in Karin? After all, romantic relationships often find their roots in physical contact.
