Chapter 826
Even After Death
Kelvin behaved like a vain woman who just spotted branded purses and clothes. âBrent, look at this! Itâll
be so cool to use this in close combat.
âBrent, buy these for me. I also want this one and that one.â
Brent fell silent
Ethan took a small handgun meant for women.
The merchant enthusiastically introduced, âYou have a good eye. This is the latest model. It has low
recoil, so itâs especially suited for women.
âIâll take it. And this too. Ethan eyed a compact portable dagger. It would hide very well.
After picking out some weapons, he went to the herb area.
There were quite a lot of people in the area. They even looked like they were peddling goods at a
market.
Many drugs were prohibited in the country. But laws didnât exist here, only money and greed. If they
had enough money, they could have all their desires fulfilled.
There were no auctions tonight, so Ethan could only browse the various counters.
âWhat do you fancy, sir? I have quite the variety here,â someone called out to him enthusiastically.
Because of the lack of regulations, the selling price of items on the ship was multiple times more
expensive than on land regardless of rarity.
The customers were rich, so they wouldnât bother too much about it.
Ethan fiddled with a medicine bottle. Before he could ask about it, the merchant scooted over with a
mysterious look. âGood choice, sir. This is our most popular item.
âYouâll be full of vigor for the whole night. Even the toughest woman will give in once she has
experienced it. Can you imagine
Ethan had no idea that he was holding a drug like that. He hastily put it back and coughed lightly. âDo
you have any anticancer drugs?â
âOf course! How can I not? Do you know what they call me?â
Ethan studied the middle-aged man in front of him. The man seemed to be in his forties, and there
werenât many wrinkles on his face.
He looked like a guy who smiled often, but when he smiled, he had a certain cunning air to him.
âNo, Ethan said.
âSir, they call me the Reviver.â
âOh, I know this one.â Kelvin appeared out of nowhere. âYo, yo, whatâs up! Check it out, the cream of
the crop! Get it while itâs hot, and Iâll even throw in a discount, chop chop!â
Kelvin started rapping all of a sudden. Feeling a little exasperated, Ethan shoved him to the side. Then,
he continued. âIâve never heard of it. What drugs do you have here?â
âYou came to the right person, sir. Iâm the miraculous doctor who can even revive the dead. I can cure
any disease, and cancer is a walk in the park for me!â
Kelvin whispered in Ethanâs ear, Boss, all swindlers say the same thing.â
âSwindlers? Who told you Iâm one of them? I researched malignant tumors for years. Coupled with
some traditional scrolls left by my ancestors, along with an original recipe, I can prolong a personâs life
even if the Grim Reaper is after them.â
If he hadnât said those things, Ethan might have believed him. But now that he had said such
outrageous claims, Ethan immediately turned around and left.
No one would dare to claim that they could cure a malignant tumor completely.
âSir, donât leave so soon. I mean it! If I werenât poor, I wouldnât have come to a place like this. If you
donât believe me, you can try some of my other drugs.
âI guarantee youâll want to use them again after the first try.â
Kelvin retorted, âWhy would a perfectly healthy person take drugs? Are you trying to jinx my boss?â
âWho said that your boss is perfectly healthy? The fire in his body is burning wild! He should vent
properly.â
Ethanâs ears turned red as he quickened his pace.
Kelvin caught up to him. âAhem, um, did that quack hit the bullseye? Boss, have you never dealt with it
yourself while Mrs. Miller was gone?â
Ethan paused in his tracks. Then, he glared coldly at Kelvin. âShut up.â
Kelvin stood where he was, stunned.
He couldnât believe it. Did Ethan abstain in all those years ever since Olivia left?
