Chapter 1054
After all, the Wolf King’s reputation was well–known. Once he appeared in Bardan, it would undoubtedly draw
widespread attention and ruin any element of secrecy.
Outside the royal palace, Andrius submitted a letter of request he had written as a special envoy from Florence to
seek a secret audience.
The palace guard glanced at Andrius‘ letter and returned it. “Sorry, you cannot enter the palace to meet the king.”
Andrius was slightly stunned and asked, “Why?”
“Princess Yule is seriously ill. His Majesty is gathering renowned physicians from all over and is unavailable to meet
you. At the earliest, you can enter the palace in seven days to meet His Majesty.”
Seven days…

Andrius hurriedly said, “To be honest, I have some medical knowledge and can handle various complex diseases. I
can treat Princess Yule.”
The guard glanced at him and had disbelief written all over his face.
Due to Andrius‘ identity as a special envoy from Florence, the guard remained polite and said, “Sir, I understand
your urgency to meet the king. However, the princess’s illness is not something that anyone can treat. Please don’t
make such jokes. If you’re truly capable, you may sign up as a physician.”
The implication was to get Andrius to stop spouting nonsense. He would have gotten physical if not for Andrius‘
special identity.
Andrius was exasperated. Hiding his real identity brought so many problems.
He sighed and asked, “Can you at least tell me where to sign up?”
“At the entrance of the Royal Hospital. After signing up and being examined, if you pass the final test and emerge
as the victor, you’ll have the chance to treat Princess Yule.”
The royal guard did not think that Andrius had any real skills and shared the information without care.
“Thanks.”
Andrius immediately headed to the entrance of the Royal Hospital.
registration process was simple. He simply picked up a form, filled it, and handed it in.
Andrius casually chose an impressive title for himself–Dr. Providence–and submitted the form.
However, because many people wanted to take advantage of the situation and earn medical fees, the hundred or
so ‘physicians‘ including Andrius had to undergo further evaluation inside the hospital.
“The first round of the evaluation is quite simple.”
The examination proctor was the director of the hospital, Sergius. He looked at all the doctors and announced
loudly, “In the hall next door are over a hundred pregnant women. Each of you will be assigned to one. Your task is
to determine if the fetus is a boy or a girl. If you correctly identify the gender, then you pass.

With that, the doctors were led into the hall and paired with a pregnant woman.
The local doctors from Bardan and physicians who came from afar immediately used high–tech methods to
examine the pregnant women to provide answers. However, many of them who tried to take advantage of the
situation were mercilessly expelled.
As for Andrius…
He said to the pregnant woman in front of him, “Please hold out your hand.”
The woman looked at him in confusion and then at the other pregnant women who were surrounded by various
high–tech devices, and reluctantly held out her hand.
Andrius placed a silk scarf over her wrist.
“It’s a boy,” he said confidently after sensing briefly.
The whole process took less than ten seconds. It was much simpler and quicker than the various high-
tech and scientific examinations conducted by the other doctors.
