Chapter 748 I Swear
Jim said, “Watching the stars!”
Corvin was stunned. “Did you just speak three words?”
Heavens!
Alaric held his forehead, exasperated at how Corvin had missed the point.
Jim didn’t say anything else.

Corvin grinned and patted Jim on the shoulder. “Keep it up, Jim. You should talk to me more often.”
He hadn’t been sleeping much lately. If he kept staying up like this, his brain wouldn’t be able to keep up.
Just as Corvin finished speaking and was about to leave, he suddenly felt a chill and a strong gust of wind from behind.
With a whoosh, he darted behind Jim.
Turning around, he saw that Gaellard and Andre were already standing on the deck of the warship.
Corvin was shocked again. Those two had really come.
“What are you doing here?” Hiding behind Jim, Corvin looked at Andre and Gaellard with some displeasure.
Emma didn’t like these two guys, so why had they come again? It was the middle of the night, and they didn’t have any food for them. Were they here to snatch someone away?
Corvin carefully observed Andre and Gaellard’s reactions. Suddenly, he noticed that both of them looked very unwell.
Their faces were pale and yellowish, as if they had been completely drained.
Andre and Gaellard ignored Corvin.
Gaellard stepped forward and glared angrily at Alaric, who was sitting comfortably in the
chair.

“Alaric, you’re too despicable. You actually gave us such a vicious drug! Because of you, we’re…”
Gaellard couldn’t bring himself to say the rest.
Alaric was a pain in the *ss, and he felt like tearing him apart.
A vicious drug? Corvin was shocked yet again.
No wonder Andre and Gaellard looked so terrible. As it turned out, they had eaten something Alaric tampered with.
Alaric sure was bold. He actually dared to scheme against two Rank 14 powerhouses like them.
“Alaric, you have to give the two of us an explanation. Otherwise, we won’t let this slide.”
No matter what, they were both Rank 14 powerhouses.
If Alaric schemed against them like this and they didn’t make him pay a price, how could they walk around with their heads high?
“What vicious drug?” Alaric spoke, looking innocent. “Gaellard, I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
“Stop pretending.”
Gaellard was convinced Alaric was acting, and he wasn’t buying it.
“Andre and I are both Rank 14 powerhouses. If it wasn’t your drug, would we be in such a miserable state?”
“How are you miserable?” Alaric looked even more innocent. “You guys don’t seem well, though. What’s the matter?”
He reached into his storage band and took out a small set of medical equipment.
“I’m a doctor. If you’re feeling unwell, I can check you out. But just so you know, my medical services aren’t free.”
Andre hadn’t said a word the whole time, for his stomach had started hurting again.
Gaellard didn’t feel good either, but right now, he was angrier than anything else. Seeing Alaric’s fake, concerned expression, Gaellard spat at him.
Alaric quickly stepped back and waved his hand in disgust. “Gaellard, that’s not right. I kindly offered to treat you, and you spit at me. If you don’t want medical treatment, then leave. Don’t

Gaellard was so angry he wanted to hit someone. If they weren’t on Emma’s warship, he really would have attacked.
Even with Jim standing nearby, he would have beaten Alaric today.
“Alaric, stop pretending. We all know each other too well. Do you really think we don’t know how scheming and underhanded you are?”
Gaellard took a deep breath, using his powers to forcefully suppress the discomfort in his stomach as he spoke.
“Do you dare swear to the Beast God that the food you gave me tonight didn’t contain any drugs you concocted? Aren’t we in this situation because of you?”
“Of course.” As Alaric spoke, he immediately raised his hand and made the oath.
“I swear to the Beast God that the food I gave you tonight did not contain any drugs I prepared myself.”
Why wouldn’t he dare swear? After all, he hadn’t added any drugs.
Other than some chili powder, he had only added the juice of a certain strange plant. But that definitely wasn’t a drug.
Before coming here, Gaellard had confidently told Andre that their current condition must have been caused by Alaric.
But now, seeing Alaric swear so readily, Gaellard suddenly felt less certain.
“So it really wasn’t you?” He was still a little suspicious.
Alaric looked completely innocent, and his tone was even more righteous. “What grudge do I have against you? Why would I drug you for no reason? If I really had something that could poison the two of you, wouldn’t it be better to just kill you outright? That would save us the trouble of you coming to bother Emma again.”
Gaellard and Andre exchanged a glance.
The words didn’t sound pleasant, but they did seem to make a bit of sense.
“Fine. For now, we’ll believe that you didn’t drug us. But we started having symptoms after eating the food you gave me. You have to take responsibility.”

Alaric immediately became displeased. “I kindly gave you my own food, and now you’re trying to blame me for it?”
