Matthew stepped onto the podium, meeting the gaze of countless eyes. After spending so much time in Seraphis, he finally had the opportunity to implement his plan.
"Firstly, I would like to thank everyone for attending this banquet I hosted. I hope you won't mind the small token of appreciation."
As he spoke, the waitstaff brought delicate medicine boxes into the banquet. It was Matthew's previous promise, the Longevity Pill. Accepting it meant silently agreeing to join Matthew in opposing the Keller Family.
The guests were well aware of this, but none of them hesitated. They were here either to gain favor or benefit from the Keller Family's downfall. Of course, many showed a conflicted expression after receiving the pill. Who would not want to live a few more years? However, the ease of obtaining the pill made many skeptical.
"Young Master Larson, does it truly have the effect of prolonging life?"
It had always been like this: people had the tendency to underestimate things that were easily obtained.
"Certainly, the pill is known as the 'Longevity Pill.' While it cannot guarantee a hundred years of life, it can extend your lifespan. I can vouch for this with my reputation as a Cathay Holy Doctor."
His identity as a Cathay Holy Doctor was well known to many forces in Seraphis, so it was not surprising when he mentioned it again. Upon receiving his answer, the guest who questioned nodded and said no more. They had no idea how valuable the title of Cathay Holy Doctor was, but they knew it would not deceive them. They were just unsure about the pill's effectiveness.
"To add on, it's best to take this pill when you return to your residence or home."
Matthew's reminder surprised several guests who had already taken the longevity pill. Why did he not choose to mention this earlier? The guests were trying to have a quick gulp, but it was too late. The pill was already in their stomachs.
As he said this, he looked at Matthew with resentment. If it were not for Matthew's late reminder, he would not have been embarrassed in front of many peers. However, his thoughts changed when several female guests handed him a mirror.
Staring at his reflection in the mirror, he was too stunned to utter a word. He did appear considerably younger. The white hair on his head had significantly reduced, and the wrinkles around his eyes had faded. His rejuvenated face was a miraculous tonic to him.
"Mr. Matthew Larson, is there a way to purchase this medicine?"
"Young Master Larson, our Seraphis Pharmaceutical Group wants to be the distributor of this Longevity Pill. What would be the cost?"
Witnessing the phenomenal results of the Longevity Pill, the guests were overjoyed, enthusiastically pursuing more of the pills for their age-defying purposes.
