Chapter 625
“Wow, impressive amount of money! What did you sell to get that amount? I am a bit short on cash lately, so it may be worth my time to sell the same goods, right?” Dio said with a smile on his face. He reached for his drink that was called Green Champion that coloured green too!
“Wow, this drink is quite strong! Is it a new variety?” Valkyrie said as she didn’t want to answer Dio’s question. “This drink was made by the Grandmaster in honour of the current Champion. People seemed to like it as they adored the current Champion!” Valkyrie said as she changed the topic.
Dio held the drink in his hands and pictured the Hulk’s embarrassing figure in the arena. “Well, if you say so!” Dio said as he smirked, trying to hold back his laughter. He knew that the Grandmaster was quite a businessman, so it was not a surprise that he would use the Champion to make more money! But it was quite intriguing, knowing that the Hulk was adored here while he was feared and hated on Earth.
Before Banner could tame the Hulk and merge as one, the people on Earth would never saw him as Hero! But it should change in the future!“Now, about that 10 million Stars? Who is that you sell?” Dio asked once again.
“I knew it! You didn’t come here just for the sake of it! You are here for that guy, aren’t you?” Valkyrie said with a frown on her face.
“That’s right! I am a bit curious about that guy. I know that you must have recognized who that guy really was, but why did you still sell him to the Grandmaster?” Dio asked curiously.
“No reason. I don’t know that guy! At the end of the day, I am a scrapper, so isn’t it my job to sell something to get by?” Valkyrie said as she rolled her eyes.
“It isn’t wrong. I just thought that you sold him rather cheap, no? the Son of Odin, the God of Thunder, Thor! 10 million is such a small amount for a man of his calibre.” Dio said casually.
“If you ask me, that man isn’t even worth a million! If the Grandmaster wants to buy him with that amount, hey, I am not complaining!” Valkyrie said annoyedly.
“Fair enough!” Dio said as he understood Valkyrie’s way of thinking. He never grabbed his drink again as he found it disgusting, but clearly, Valkyrie didn’t mind it as she gulped down the green liquid mindlessly.“If you are here to save that guy, it is best to move soon! Once the Champion’s battle begins, the Grandmaster would never let him go easily!” Valkyrie said indifferently. However, Dio knew that Valkyrie was just pretending not to care! But nevertheless, Dio wasn’t in such a hurry, so after knowing that Thor was indeed on this planet, he could have just let it all played out.
“Odin is dead. Hela now had occupied Asgard. When I left that place, the street of Asgard was covered by countless Asgardian corpses!” Dio said as he ordered another drink.
The glass on Valkyrie’s palm was smashed into pieces as Valkyrie was surprised. Dio frowned as he thought to himself, was it really such a shocking news? But then again, Dio knew that Valkyrie feared the Goddess of Death and never stopped regretting surviving alone despite losing the entire cavalry of Valkyrie when they fought against Hela in the past!
“So, is that supposed to concern me? I have nothing to do with Asgard!” Valkyrie said with a frown on her face. But then again, the look on her face clearly showed that she was quite shaken after hearing the news Dio had brought up! She refilled her cup once more and drank it straight as if she tried to escape reality.
“I don’t know. I just thought that you might be interested in the current news. Then again, it’s too late to do anything now! Thor is not Hela’s opponent, and Mjolnir was already destroyed by Hela herself! It’s probably better for him to end up as the new gladiator of this arena!” Dio said casually.
Although Dio was talking about Thor, he saw that Valkyrie showed some reaction to his word. It probably felt like Dio was talking about her too!
“What do you really want here?” Valkyrie said coldly.
“I guess I want you to help others too! Heimdall has saved many civilians and hid them in the dense forest, but Hela would get a whiff of his smell sooner or later! Now, I want to cash in on that favour in the past, so I want you to tell Thor that help is coming, and I guess you should do what you want to do. I am not an Asgardian myself, so I don’t really care!” Dio said casually before gulping his drink and stood up.
“Are you sure that’s all you’re asking for?” Valkyrie asked coldly.
“Whatever, I guess. I am not too sure of what I want right now. After you inform Thor, my task is done. Whether you help Asgard or not, I don’t really care. I will leave after the Championship is done!” Dio said casually before leaving.
“By the way, thanks for the drink!” Dio said as he opened the bar door and walked out. Meanwhile, Valkyrie was contemplating what she wanted to do next as she thought about Dio’s word. After contemplating for a while, Valkyrie sighed and drank the rest of her drink before paying for her tabs.
At the same time, Dio informed Heimdall as soon as he left the bar with the help of the Guardian of Light badge. Heimdall was impressed that Dio could find Thor so fast, but the most important thing right now was that Thor was found, and he was okay! Heimdall knew that Asgard still had a chance as long as Thor was still alive!
After informing Heimdall, Dio hung around aimlessly as he didn’t really have anything to do right now. he just had to wait until the Grandmaster’s Championship began and left as soon as the Championship concluded! At that time, he would bring Thor and Hulk with him. If Grandmaster chose to stand up against him that time, he would deal with the Grandmaster then!
Dio didn’t care about that sly old fox anyway!
