    <strong>Chapter 118: Real Winner</strong>


    <span style="font-weight:400">Without any suspense, the Grandmaster reached the finish line first.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Voyager came up second and Valkyrie followed half a secondter, reaching third ce.


    <span style="font-weight:400">The Grandmasterughed as he stepped down from his chariot.


    <span style="font-weight:400">“Haha! I win again! The Grandmaster always wins!”


    <span style="font-weight:400">“Are you sure about that?”


    <span style="font-weight:400">Benjamin smiled.


    <span style="font-weight:400">The next moment, red mist started to appear around them and the entire surroundings changed.


    <span style="font-weight:400">What was the finish line…was actually still the starting line.


    <span style="font-weight:400">And Benjamin who was at the starting line…was actually already at the finish line.


    <span style="font-weight:400">“I…huh?”


    <span style="font-weight:400">Seeing this scene, the Grandmaster was stunned and speechless.


    <span style="font-weight:400">What? Where am I? Who am I?


    <span style="font-weight:400">Not only the Grandmaster, even Voyager, Superman, Valkyrie, and the rest of the participants and audience werepletely confused.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Benjamin chuckled and took out the Reality Stone, tossing it in the air and catching it a couple of times.


    <span style="font-weight:400">“I’m sure you know what this is.”


    <span style="font-weight:400">When the Grandmaster saw the stone, his eyes widened in shock and disbelief!


    <span style="font-weight:400">“The Reality Stone!? Why do you have that!? That’s not fair! This is cheating!”


    <span style="font-weight:400">The Grandmaster broke down.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Benjamin simply shrugged.


    <span style="font-weight:400">“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?”


    <span style="font-weight:400">Benjamin sighed and shook his head.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Actually, he doesn’t get why the Grandmaster kept acting all high and mighty from the beginning.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Since he knew that they were selling Thanos’ army, he should’ve already figured out that we were capable of defeating Thanos.


    <span style="font-weight:400">And a force capable of such things isn’t a lot in this universe.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Even the Grandmaster would have a hard time dealing with Thanos. In fact, Benjamin even thinks the Grandmaster wouldn’t really stand a chance.


    <span style="font-weight:400">So why was he acting all arrogant in front of the group who could defeat Thanos?


    <span style="font-weight:400">Was it because of his confidence in Superman? Or was it something else?


    <span style="font-weight:400">Benjamin wondered about this which was why he even bothered to go such a roundabout way such as betting to negotiate with the Grandmaster.


    <span style="font-weight:400">While Benjamin couldn’t imagine what trump card the Grandmaster could possibly have, it was better to be safe than sorry.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Of course, it’s also possible that the Grandmaster is simply that arrogant and foolish.


    <span style="font-weight:400">But it doesn’t matter. Even now, he only revealed that he has one Infinity Stone.


    <span style="font-weight:400">The Grandmaster gritted his teeth in anger and annoyance.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Benjamin continued.


    <span style="font-weight:400">“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.”


    <span style="font-weight:400">Benjamin caught the Reality Stone he tossed in the air and red mist began to form around his fist.


    <span style="font-weight:400">The Grandmaster gnashed his teeth and snorted.


    <span style="font-weight:400">“Hmph! The Superman is yours!”


    <span style="font-weight:400">“And?”


    <span style="font-weight:400">“And a billion units for the army!”


    <span style="font-weight:400">Units, the currency of the universe.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Benjamin doesn’t know whether the price was enough so he turned to look at the Guardians.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Gamora nodded to him, signaling the price was ok.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Benjamin smiled.


    <span style="font-weight:400">“Pleasure doing business.”


    <span style="font-weight:400">“Hmph! Now get out of my!”


    <span style="font-weight:400">The Grandmaster shouted angrily as he left in a puff.


    <span style="font-weight:400">As he left, several subordinates of his came carrying crates of units.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Benjamin took a casual look inside and saw the units were small rectangr tes made of some alien mineral.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Seeing the crates, Rocket immediately came down from the stands and made a beeline for the crates.


    <span style="font-weight:400">“Holy…! I’ve never seen so many units in my life! I’m rich! Ahahahaha!”


    <span style="font-weight:400">“Dude! Those aren’t yours!”


    <span style="font-weight:400">Starlord panicked and tried to hold Rocket back.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Benjamin ignored their group and turned to look at Voyager who appeared to be approaching them.


    <span style="font-weight:400">“Congrattions on winning. I must say, I really didn’t think you would use an Infinity Stone for this. I have a question though.”


    <span style="font-weight:400">“What is it?”


    <span style="font-weight:400">“If you have the Reality Stone, can’t you just make your own money?”


    <span style="font-weight:400">Benjamin shrugged.


    <span style="font-weight:400">“Well, yeah. But where’s the fun in that?”


    <span style="font-weight:400">“...Even though you used the same stone to skip to the finish line?”


    <span style="font-weight:400">Benjaminughed at that.


    <span style="font-weight:400">“It’s different. Seeing you all struggle in that fake reality was fun for me. It’s like watching a movie.”


    <span style="font-weight:400">“...”


    <span style="font-weight:400">Voyager was speechless.


    <span style="font-weight:400">She sighed.


    <span style="font-weight:400">“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.”


    <span style="font-weight:400">“Oh. Goodluck with that.”


    <span style="font-weight:400">Benjamin just nodded. It has nothing to do with him after all.


    <span style="font-weight:400">“And I’ve decided to follow you to Earth from now on!”


    <span style="font-weight:400">“Oh…wait, what?”


    <span style="font-weight:400">Spoke too soon…


    <span style="font-weight:400">Voyager nodded and turned around.


    <span style="font-weight:400">“I’ll go pack my things then.”


    <span style="font-weight:400">“Huh? What are you saying!? I didn’t even agree!”


    <span style="font-weight:400">Benjamin shouted but Voyager pretended not to hear him and already left to pack her things.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Benjamin’s face twitched.


    <span style="font-weight:400">This damn girl…wait, we don’t really need to wait for her. We can just leave.


    <span style="font-weight:400">After realizing that, Benjamin no longer cared.


    <span style="font-weight:400">At the side, Thor was grinning as he walked towards Valkyrie and Korg.


    <span style="font-weight:400">“Valkyrie! Remember our bet!”


    <span style="font-weight:400">Valkyrie rolled her eyes.


    <span style="font-weight:400">“That doesn’t count for anything! In the end, you didn’t do anything!”


    <span style="font-weight:400">“What do you mean? I sat next to Ben every step of the way!”


    <span style="font-weight:400">“...”


    <span style="font-weight:400">Valkyrie groaned as she ced her hand on her face.


    <span style="font-weight:400">“Whatever. I already decided I’ll stille with you to see this Midgard. Also, the big lump ising with me.”


    <span style="font-weight:400">“A Kronan huh? Nice to meet you. I am Thor Odinson. King of Asgard! God of Thunder!”


    <span style="font-weight:400">“Hello! I am Korg. Just Korg. Or as Valkyrie likes to call me, Big Lump.”


    <span style="font-weight:400">As Korg introduced himself, Daredevil turned to Iron Fist.


    <span style="font-weight:400">“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?”


    <span style="font-weight:400">“Yep. Talking rock. Sounds about right.”


    <span style="font-weight:400">Iron Fist nodded.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Daredevil paused for a moment.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Suddenly, he turned to a boulder not far from them and nodded to it politely.


    <span style="font-weight:400">“As expected of alien creatures. Even rocks are alive. Hello there.”


    <span style="font-weight:400">“No, that one is just a rock.”


    <span style="font-weight:400">“Oh…”


    <span style="font-weight:400">Daredevil was embarrassed.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Benjamin smirked as he took a photo of Daredevil talking to a boulder.


    <span style="font-weight:400">I’ll show this to Jessicater.


    <span style="font-weight:400">While thinking that, he remembered something and looked at Superman who stood there appearing like a lost puppy.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Now…what to do with this guy?
