Chapter 118: Real Winner

Chapter 118: Real Winner

Without any suspense, the Grandmaster reached the finish line first.

Voyager came up second and Valkyrie followed half a second later, reaching third place.

The Grandmaster laughed as he stepped down from his chariot.

“Haha! I win again! The Grandmaster always wins!”

“Are you sure about that?”

Benjamin smiled.

The next moment, red mist started to appear around them and the entire surroundings changed.

What was the finish line…was actually still the starting line.

And Benjamin who was at the starting line…was actually already at the finish line.

“I…huh?”

Seeing this scene, the Grandmaster was stunned and speechless.

What? Where am I? Who am I?

Not only the Grandmaster, even Voyager, Superman, Valkyrie, and the rest of the participants and audience were completely confused.

Benjamin chuckled and took out the Reality Stone, tossing it in the air and catching it a couple of times.

“I’m sure you know what this is.”

When the Grandmaster saw the stone, his eyes widened in shock and disbelief!

“The Reality Stone!? Why do you have that!? That’s not fair! This is cheating!”

The Grandmaster broke down.

Benjamin simply shrugged.

“You didn’t say any rules about not using any Infinity Stone. And is it really surprising that I have an Infinity Stone? You should already know we’re here to sell you Thanos’ army. Where do you think we got them? Wallmart?”

Benjamin sighed and shook his head.

Actually, he doesn’t get why the Grandmaster kept acting all high and mighty from the beginning.

Since he knew that they were selling Thanos’ army, he should’ve already figured out that we were capable of defeating Thanos.

And a force capable of such things isn’t a lot in this universe.

Even the Grandmaster would have a hard time dealing with Thanos. In fact, Benjamin even thinks the Grandmaster wouldn’t really stand a chance.

So why was he acting all arrogant in front of the group who could defeat Thanos?

Was it because of his confidence in Superman? Or was it something else?

Benjamin wondered about this which was why he even bothered to go such a roundabout way such as betting to negotiate with the Grandmaster.

While Benjamin couldn’t imagine what trump card the Grandmaster could possibly have, it was better to be safe than sorry.

Of course, it’s also possible that the Grandmaster is simply that arrogant and foolish.

But it doesn’t matter. Even now, he only revealed that he has one Infinity Stone.

The Grandmaster gritted his teeth in anger and annoyance.

Benjamin continued.

“Well? Whether you go back on your word or not, it’s up to you. However, I’d think twice before going against someone holding the Reality Stone.”

Benjamin caught the Reality Stone he tossed in the air and red mist began to form around his fist.

The Grandmaster gnashed his teeth and snorted.

“Hmph! The Superman is yours!”

“And?”

“And a billion units for the army!”

Units, the currency of the universe.

Benjamin doesn’t know whether the price was enough so he turned to look at the Guardians.

Gamora nodded to him, signaling the price was ok.

Benjamin smiled.

“Pleasure doing business.”

“Hmph! Now get out of my planet!”

The Grandmaster shouted angrily as he left in a puff.

As he left, several subordinates of his came carrying crates of units.

Benjamin took a casual look inside and saw the units were small rectangular plates made of some alien mineral.

Seeing the crates, Rocket immediately came down from the stands and made a beeline for the crates.

“Holy…! I’ve never seen so many units in my life! I’m rich! Ahahahaha!”

“Dude! Those aren’t yours!”

Starlord panicked and tried to hold Rocket back.

Benjamin ignored their group and turned to look at Voyager who appeared to be approaching them.

“Congratulations on winning. I must say, I really didn’t think you would use an Infinity Stone for this. I have a question though.”

“What is it?”

“If you have the Reality Stone, can’t you just make your own money?”

Benjamin shrugged.

“Well, yeah. But where’s the fun in that?”

“...Even though you used the same stone to skip to the finish line?”

Benjamin laughed at that.

“It’s different. Seeing you all struggle in that fake reality was fun for me. It’s like watching a movie.”

“...”

Voyager was speechless.

She sighed.

“Anyway, you should know. Before the race began, I made a bet with my father. In the end, we both lost so I decided to give up my identity as the Grandmaster’s daughter and leave Sakaar.”

“Oh. Goodluck with that.”

Benjamin just nodded. It has nothing to do with him after all.

“And I’ve decided to follow you to Earth from now on!”

“Oh…wait, what?”

Spoke too soon…

Voyager nodded and turned around.

“I’ll go pack my things then.”

“Huh? What are you saying!? I didn’t even agree!”

Benjamin shouted but Voyager pretended not to hear him and already left to pack her things.

Benjamin’s face twitched.

This damn girl…wait, we don’t really need to wait for her. We can just leave.

After realizing that, Benjamin no longer cared.

At the side, Thor was grinning as he walked towards Valkyrie and Korg.

“Valkyrie! Remember our bet!”

Valkyrie rolled her eyes.

“That doesn’t count for anything! In the end, you didn’t do anything!”

“What do you mean? I sat next to Ben every step of the way!”

“...”

Valkyrie groaned as she placed her hand on her face.

“Whatever. I already decided I’ll still come with you to see this Midgard. Also, the big lump is coming with me.”

“A Kronan huh? Nice to meet you. I am Thor Odinson. King of Asgard! God of Thunder!”

“Hello! I am Korg. Just Korg. Or as Valkyrie likes to call me, Big Lump.”

As Korg introduced himself, Daredevil turned to Iron Fist.

“Just wanted to make sure I’m hearing this right…but it sounds like the person speaking to Thor just now is made of…rock?”

“Yep. Talking rock. Sounds about right.”

Iron Fist nodded.

Daredevil paused for a moment.

Suddenly, he turned to a boulder not far from them and nodded to it politely.

“As expected of alien creatures. Even rocks are alive. Hello there.”

“No, that one is just a rock.”

“Oh…”

Daredevil was embarrassed.

Benjamin smirked as he took a photo of Daredevil talking to a boulder.

I’ll show this to Jessica later.

While thinking that, he remembered something and looked at Superman who stood there appearing like a lost puppy.

Now…what to do with this guy?
