Chapter 72 Alaric Starts to Suspect


The large study with its refined desk and all the new furniture and appliances felt somewhat alien to Galatea. She found it odd because Alaric's decorating style usually featured a minimalist and cool color palette, yet this room felt surprisingly cozy.

Since she was busy moving today and hadn't had a chance to respond to a sick friend's message, Galatea started replying to them one by one. She answered each message with patience and responsibility, suggesting medications, dosages, and precautions until one message caught her attention.

"Always feeling lazy and weak, no appetite, daydreaming - no cure and no doctor to turn to. Is there any hope?"

Galatea furrowed her brow at this message. Was this another weirdo?

"How long have you been experiencing these symptoms?" she asked.

On the other end of the internet connection, Alaric's eyes narrowed slightly, and then a sly smile crept over his face as he replied, "Been like this since birth."

"May I ask how old you are?" Galatea queried.

"Thirty-eight," Alaric responded flippantly.

"Have you been like this for all thirty-eight years?"

"Yes."

Alaric couldn't help but find amusement in his mischief, and after smiling again, he suddenly felt a shiver of thrill. He was someone who rarely made a joke, always serious and earnest, and it never crossed his mind that he would one day play such a prank online.
