MIGHT AS WELL BE OP Chapter 1383: You And Me Both
Previously on MIGHT AS WELL BE OP...
Jerry, Chu Feng, and Tory Hale stared at Lora Vake like she was a mad woman disguising herself as a sane person. They wondered if she understood the weight of what she was asking for.
The contribution points Anthony was going to receive would be immense, and not just that, if the ten percent from the treasures he possessed were sold, he would take in billions of Origin Essence Stones.
Yet, she was asking for it all. They wondered if she was the priestess of some sort of Demon Of Greed or something of the sort.
But at the same time, her words made sense and were extremely convincing. Did someone as powerful as Anthony even need anything within the rewards? With a thought, he could create anything he wanted, so the answer was a fat no.
Their eyes left Lora Vake, their gazes snapping towards Anthony as they wondered if Anthony would turn her down or allow this woman to walk away with huge amounts of resources in her purse just by asking politely and calmly in a friendly tone.
Seeing everyone’s attention on him, Anthony smiled for a moment, his lips parting as he spoke in a calm tone.
"You know, there is a saying that goes; fortune favors the bold."
As those words left Anthony’s lips, everyone immediately reached a conclusion, as they couldn’t believe what they were about to hear.
"And I guess you are bold, so I accept. But I would only be giving you the ten percent that the Sect gives back to me. As for the contribution points, I will hold off on that."
Anthony added in finality as he agreed with a smile, meeting everyone’s gaze.
Anthony’s words sounded like a thunderclap in their ears. They doubted reality and everything they had just heard. They couldn’t believe it had been that easy, that all one had to do was ask and such resources would fall into their laps.
Even Lora Vake was shaken. She hadn’t expected Anthony to agree. As said earlier, she was only shooting her shot with the conclusion that Anthony would refuse. Yet, he had agreed. Although he had said she would get only the treasures and not the contribution points, she was fucking happy.
"LET’S FUCKING GO!!!"
She shouted at the top of her lungs in pure excitement, but the sound wasn’t too loud, as she had adjusted her Origin Essence Energy to create a barrier, as she didn’t want to disturb the Core Elders and Sect Master’s meeting.
"How can I thank you?"
She immediately turned to Anthony and asked a bit enthusiastically. After all, how could she just accept this without any form of thank you? Was a normal thank you from her mouth enough? Definitely not.
At her words, Anthony arched an eyebrow for a moment, then replied with a teasing smile.
"If you have something, anything at all, that equals the value of what I just gave you, I will happily accept it."
His tone was cool and playful.
Lora Vake’s excited expression paused, as she didn’t even need to think to know that she had nothing of value. She was a pauper compared to the man known as Null Anthony.
Seeing her reaction, Anthony gave a small smile as he spoke.
"Since you don’t have anything to thank me with, just enjoy the treasures when you get them."
He shook his head, as he knew from the jump that this woman had nothing to give him in return, and even if she did, he would decline, as this wasn’t an exchange but simply an act of giving out something he didn’t need.
As for sexual favors, he wasn’t a cheating boyfriend. Although his girlfriend was off in another Galaxy, it didn’t matter, as he could handle long-distance relationships just fine. He had been single for twenty years, then suddenly couldn’t handle one month of being away from his girlfriend?
Although he could just tease Lora Vake by suggesting he wanted it when he didn’t, as it was all playful banter, he didn’t. Any sexual jokes would only be appropriate with Vega and nobody else.
As for Lora Vake, her mind didn’t go into the gutter when she asked Anthony how to repay him. How could powerful people be moved by sexual urges so easily when they could literally just blink and a billion women would line up for them?
As for the other Above Disciples, they could only stare jealously. They told themselves to be bolder from now on. Although Anthony still had the contribution points and they could ask for them, they didn’t. Why? They had reached the conclusion that Anthony might want to do something with his contribution points. Although they didn’t know what, it didn’t matter.
"I can’t believe she got it just like that."
Jerry stated as he sighed heavily, as he was still in disbelief.
"You and me both."
Chu Feng stated, his eyes shifting towards Lora Vake. He understood he had always been lucky since he had been little, always finding treasures everywhere, just like the River Of Night Territory.
But for the first time in his life, someone seemed luckier than him. As for considering Anthony encountering The Lover Of Death’s treasures as him being lucky, he didn’t.
"Don’t worry, as we are all friends here, I’m sure Lora would share some with us."
Tory Hale stated, his eyes shifting towards Lora Vake as though asking, "right???" with his eyes.
Instead, Lora Vake met his gaze as she replied.
"Since when did we become friends? Hmph! I’ve always held grudges all the times you keep trying to hold your ranking on the Above Disciple Ranking."
Then she broke eye contact, like she didn’t put Tory Hale on her level, acting like some arrogant Young Mistress.
But it was all a joke and banter.
Tory Hale’s lips twitched while Anthony simply chuckled and said nothing, simply watching from the side.
As Jerry was about to say something, the door to the Sect Master Hall opened inwards, signaling them to enter.
"I guess the time for discussion is over, guys."
Anthony spoke as his attention shifted towards the door and the familiar hall.
