Chapter 636
When Dio took Valkyrie out of the room, they were immediately surrounded by the guards. The Grandmaster stood back up again, but the calm smile that he usually portrayed was replaced by a gloomy frown. “Return that thing to me. I can give you anything else, but not that!” The Grandmaster said as he looked at the White Chip on Dio’s hand.
Dio didn’t know how the Grandmaster did it, but it was clear that he wanted to get the rest of his soul back! Otherwise, he might suffer from the symptom that Cristal suffered, which was falling into a deep sleep for a long period of time!
“What are you talking about? Are you threatening me? Or is it a request? But don’t forget that your life has become mine as soon as you lose the game! Or are you gonna go back against your own word, Grandmaster?” Dio said as he played around with the White Chip casually. The Grandmaster was clearly angered by Dio’s word, but he knew that there was nothing he could do at the moment, so he held it in and sighed.
“Everyone, get out! No one is allowed here without my permission!” The Grandmaster yelled coldly. The Guard immediately nodded and walked out of the room. Dio then put his [Reaper’s Scythe] back inside the card and put the card and the chip into his pocket.
“Wise Choice!” Dio said casually.
“You won this time, but can we talk about it for a moment?” The Grandmaster said as he sat down on his chair once more.
“Well, it sure is nice to bargain, but before that, Scrapper 142 that helped me win seems to have something on her mind to say to you!!” Dio said casually. Although the injuries on Valkyrie’s body seemed to disappear, her clothes were still stained by the blood that she spilled during the game. She hadn’t forgotten who dragged her down to play this game, but she knew hadn’t Dio picked her as his proxy, she might have died!
So, without any hesitation, Valkyrie began to walk towards the Grandmaster and punched him in the face! Even so, the Grandmaster didn’t lose his composure. After all, physical attacks wouldn’t do anything to him.
“Don’t waste your energy, beautiful! I already promised to transfer 10 million Star Coin for you, didn’t I?” the Grandmaster said casually. Valkyrie sighed as she did get the 10 million star coins as soon as the game began, but she would have no use for it if she died in the game! It was clear that she was furious that the Grandmaster was thinking so little about her life, but there was nothing she could do!
Seeing that Valkyrie had calmed down, the Grandmaster laughed! But not long after, his smile froze as Valkyrie slapped him across the face! The Grandmaster wanted to say something, but Valkyrie slapped him once again before he could say anything!
Sure, it didn’t do any damage to the Grandmaster, but it was humiliating! But instead of stopping there, Valkyrie slapped The Grandmaster continuously, as she was getting addicted by the feel of it! The shaken Grandmaster wasn’t able to think properly as he was too stunned. The slap may not cause any damage, but it was not something that the Grandmaster had ever experienced before!
After Valkyrie thought that she had enough, she stopped slapping the Grandmaster and spit on him in disgust! The Grandmaster never felt so insulted before in his life as he wiped Valkyrie’s spit from his face.
He had lost half of his soul, and now, he even got humiliated like for the first time! But he looked at Dio and saw that he was holding a dark red blade, seemingly trying to carve some scribble on the White Chip! The Grandmaster immediately snapped back into reality as he seemed to forget all anger he felt from Valkyrie’s humiliation.
“Now, can we talk about it?” The Grandmaster was a person with patience and endurance. After all, he had survived this universe since the very beginning! Even if rebels happened around him, his response would just be destroying the leader of that rebellion. After all, people wouldn’t be able to do anything if they didn’t have anyone to stand up with them!
So, even if others might think that they had the upper hand against the Grandmaster at that time, the Grandmaster would thread the water carefully and try to negotiate with them. The Grandmaster had never felt such a thing called desperation before!
“What would we negotiate about? Since I already won, your life is mine! I know that you won’t let me take your life, so I decided to take it by myself! Unfortunately, I still have ways to go, seeing that you’re still alive and well. So, if you want your soul back, it will all depend on how much it’s worth!” Dio said coldly.
The Grandmaster gritted his teeth as he never expected that Dio could be this calm and wise! But it didn’t matter right now, as all he wanted is to take back the other half of the soul that Dio took!
“You can take anything that I have!” The Grandmaster said without any hesitation.
“Really? Anything?” Dio asked to confirm the Grandmaster’s word.
“Anything!” the Grandmaster said confidently. Dio immediately smiled!
…………………
When Dio and Valkyrie walked out of the palace, a huge spaceship was already waiting for them outside. But before he left, he had to meet with Thor and Hulk first! Dio sighed as he was annoyed at the chance of talking to Hulk. After all, Hulk wasn’t a good talker like Banner was.
Meanwhile, the Grandmaster sat calmly on his seat before getting up and walking toward Topaz. He then stretched out his hand towards Topaz’s body.
“Welcome back!” The Grandmaster said as Topaz opened her eyes once again.
