I'm Trying To Go Broke, So Why Do I Keep Getting Richer?!

Chapter 118: I was so scared...


As Leo was talking with Valeroth, he noticed that many people had started to gather in the distance.

He could see a few familiar faces from the Galactic Union. Even a few Heroes from the Galactic Union were also here. At the moment, it was as if he had become the focal point of the entire world.

Galactic Union Leader Viserl was sweating heavily. After all, it was because of his lie about the Celestial Lotus that everything escalated.

He never thought that one single lie would lead to an outcome where Valeroth's own son would be kidnapped. If it was revealed that everything happened because of him, then he didn't even know what a large commotion it would cause.

Meanwhile Blaze was also amazed. He had met the masked Leo before. At that time, he guessed that this person held a high position, but even he didn't expect that he would be someone that even the Galactic Union would have to look up to.

The more surprising person was Kaelus, who he had fought on earth previously. Now everything about that person's strength started making sense to him.

It was no wonder he couldn't get an advantage over that person. He could only shake his head lightly, relieved that things had ended relatively peacefully on earth with only a few injuries.

"Should I try to save that unconscious youngster? We might be able to get the favor of a lot of powerful people here," Lightning said with a whisper.

Blaze slowly shook his head. "The farther you stay away from these people, the better it is. Because we would only end up offending one side or the other. Don't do anything."

Although he also felt the urge to save the youngster that was clearly kidnapped, and was used as a hostage, but even he didn't want to interfere.

He knew that his actions didn't just have consequences for himself, but for the entire earth as well. His one decision could decide the life and death of billions of people.

As the number of people gathering in the distance increased, even Leo was starting to get cautious.

There were so many people, each with a myriad of abilities, that he couldn't even keep an eye on them. The longer he stayed here, the more time he gave them to come up with an idea.

The person he was most cautious about, was still Selene and Valeroth.

"The Traveler... What a fancy name. I will remember that." Leo took a deep breath, and prepared to retreat, not wanting to push his luck.

He had already messed around a lot after all.

With the snap of his fingers, thousands of beams shot out from the Necropolis Ship. However, they weren't attacks.

Each of the beams was using spatial energy, as if even with his departure, Leo was reminding Valeroth how he had been fooled previously.

Valeroth's lips twitched, understanding Leo's intentions of mocking him. However, he didn't react, for the safety of his son.

At the same time, with the interference of Nephilim and Seraphim's ships being removed, he was finally able to teleport things from this planet, instead of just pushing things down.

In the next moment, spatial energy surrounded his body, and his figure disappeared, amidst the thousands of pillars of light that were falling from the sky.

Kaelus showed the middle finger to Valeroth before his figure also disappeared with the young man that they had kidnapped.

Kaelus returned to the Necropolis Ship, this time arriving at the command center instead of a locked room.

There was only one problem... The masked person from Necropolis wasn't anywhere to be seen. There was also a line on the ship's screen.

[Temporarily Ownership has been established] [Ownership duration: 7 Days]

"So he did give me the temporary ownership, just like he had planned. But I still don't understand... Why isn't he coming with us...? Whatever, I can only follow his plan. At least I'm not being dragged back to my father."

Kaelus placed his palm on the command screen, and accepted the temporary Ownership, setting course for the new destination, albeit with Leo's instructions.

At the same time, he also freed Reven and Timmy from their rooms.

The Necropolis Ship turned in space, and right before the eyes of everything, it shot forth like a shooting star, with no one to block it anymore.

With that, the thousands of pillars of light that had fallen from the sky slowly started to disperse, leaving close to a thousand empty boxes across the entire planet.

Everyone on the planet had seen the so-called envoy leave the planet with Kaelus. However, no one knew that in reality, only two people had actually left this planet, and not three.

Only Kaelus and Valeroth's son had left this planet. Meanwhile, the main culprit was still on this planet.

The thousands of pillars of light, that looked like an attempt to mock Valeroth, were not just a ruse. Instead, they were the true cards that Leo used to hide himself.

As his body disappeared from the planet, he used one of the thousand routes to send his body back, albeit after quickly keeping the Envoy's setup in his storage room.

With everyone's attention on the departing ship, no one really thought that the person would be returning.

Leo appeared right within the Auction House, in the hallway that was far from Selene's VIP Room, but still near the stage.

"Tch, how far does a man need to go to protect himself..." Leo mumbled, the back of his head completely healed, albeit still throbbing.

He quickly made his way, and hid behind the crowd near the garden, as if he had always been there, watching everything from the crowd.

"T-thank god they left. I was so scared..." Leo said, his voice literally trembling as if his body was about to pass out from fear.

His words caught the attention of quite a few people. While there were also a few that couldn't help but laugh at his cowardice.

"Leo?" Blaze was the only one who recognized that voice, and turned back. "It's really you!"
