Chapter 1526: Ask the Question

'We have a deal, Raymond. Do you still agree with that deal?' for a moment there is an oppressing silence in the room

'I promise you before. I am not a man that would break my promise' Azief eyes narrowed. 

'It is hard to simply believe your promise. I know of your reputation'

'Then you know I am telling the truth'

Azief shakes his head

'The stake is too high now. I could not afford any failure.' He paused for a second before saying

'I do not want to delay myself again. If I trust you now, and you betray me, I would have to spend  a lot of time. It would be like raising a tiger to kill myself'

Hirate was about to say something but Raymond stop him with his eyes. He sighed and then said

'I am speaking honestly. But you can't believe me. Then what do you suggest we do right now?'

'Swear it. Swear it under the Heavenly Will'
