Author's Note: Unedited Chapter

"Oh but then, wouldn't it be delusional to think you could win against an opponent that is clearly more powerful than you are?" Wong had an expression of confusion as he questioned.

"If the disparity in strength is immense then yes, but if not, then there is definitely a chance of winning. Loss or win in a battle cannot be decided by strength alone. Uncertain and unexpected factors can lead to a completely turn of events during a battle," Gustav responded.

"Do you think you can defeat him?" Wong asked.

A smile appeared on Gustav's face after hearing this question, "I guess we'll find out soon enough,"

The group also followed side by side with Gustav as they headed towards their accommodation area.

As the participants witnessing the initial events by the side dispersed, two figure with transparent skin, green eyed and white radish shaped head, glared in the direction of the earth participants leaving.

-"We shall revenge the humiliation they brought upon my brother,"

-"That human must die by our hands,"

They eyes displayed a solemn resolve as they swore.

"Gustav," A loud and cheerful voice rang out the instant they arrived back at their at their accommodation area.

A warm, soft and feminine figure had jumped into Gustav's embrace, enveloping him in an alluring fragrance. Gustav slowly wrapped his hands around the slim waist of the familiar figure that had just hugged him.

"Angy," He muttered while slowly caressing her back while her body meshed onto his.

The tip of her short horns poked his chest area but he was unbothered by that as he held her tightly in his embrace for a couple of moments.

"*cough cough* we're still here guys," Matilda voiced from the side.

"*squeal*" Angy quickly seperated from Gustav as a red tinge appeared on her cheeks. She looked up and down shyly while greeting the rest of her teammates.

"Are you alright?" Matilda hugged Angy with a smile.

"Ou? Did you get larger?" Matilda voiced while cupping Angy boobs and softly squishing them.

"Eeekk! Noooo," Angy scurried away like a flustered chicken while Gustav shifted his gaze.

"You had us pretty worried when you passed out," Falco voiced from the side.

"i just used something I wasn't supposed to," Angy replied.

"We're glad you're alright or homeboy here would have gone back to being grumpy and cold," E.E stated from the side as well while pointing at Gustav.

The group laughed while Gustav ignored their taunts, taking his seat at the corner. The group seemed relieved that Angy was back.

She was no doubt a valuable asset to the team as well as someone who was cared about by all. They hoped she would have recovered enough to join the next major challenge.

"You guys won..." Angy was both delighted and slightly low spirited at the same time.

'The group can function well even with my absence. They don't need me,' She thought.

"It was difficult without you," A hand that had reached out to touch her shoulder, brought her oit of her reverie.

"We had to put in more than a hundred percent effort due to your absence which is something we can't do all the time. The group is incomplete without you," It was as if Aildris had read her mind as he spoke with a warm smile.

Angy's face lit up as she nodded in response.

"Man i need to take a shower. This is the first time I didn't take a bath in three weeks," E.E had a look of self disgust as he voiced out.

"Make that two," Teemee yelled from the side.

"Make that three," Yonda stated as well.

"Make that four,"

"Make that five,"

"Make that six,"

"Make that seven,"

"I'll just create a hot bath then,"

All the boys soon joined turning to leave for the exit.

"Are you not joining us Gus?" E.E questioned.

"It's a hot bath. No," Gustav replied with a dismissive expression.

"Aw come on man don't be boring,"

"Let's bask in nakedness together,"

Eveyrone turned to stare at Abestos with a suspicious expression as soon as he said that.

"I mean..." He chuckled wryly.

"You mean bask in dirtiness together. Hard pass," Gustav waved his hand.

Minutes later Gustav sat in the hot bath together with the rest of the boys who were playing around and splashing water all across the place.

"Why did I even agree to this?" He voiced in regret.

"Lighten up!"

In a flash three days had gone by and during this time period, the earth participants had spent their time recuperating and preparing for the next major challenge.

Gustav had allocated the rest of the thirty subtitutes to different sub categories to participate in. None of the main teammates took any part in the sub categories in the last three days.

Gustav made sure to pick subtitutes suiting for each sub challenge and even though a few of them failed, he wasn't bothered about it.

During this time, unrest had been growing amongst the participants as rumours of the supposed next major challenge spread. There were a couple different thoughts on what it might be but Gustav couldn't believe any of them since the Ozis hadn't announced it themselves.

Gustav was sure that information was getting leaked from somewhere and some alien teams had access to it just as the Diaporonians were aware of the other Dimension before entering the fourth disk.

He knew it couldn't be mere coincidence that they just happened to possess knowledge of rituals and sacrifices that would lead them to the other dimension.

Gustav couldn't mention this to just anyone since he didn't have concrete evidence that someone amongst the board of Handlers was spilling things. However, he did mention it to Miss Aimee.

"It must be a rotten mouse. No planet is void of corruption," Miss Aimee said as they walked through an open market area on the ninth disk.

The traingular structures stacked atop each other with the long rods poking through their middle into the sky above, gave off a spectacular sight.

The golden roads were an even more delightful sight as floating boards flew across the air on the night disk which gave off a slightly similar vibe to earth.

"No doubt but this could harm our chances in the future. If I had never encountered that other dimension by mistake, the Diaporonians would no doubt have won," Gustav responded.

"Hmm I can't go talk to those old geezers since I confronted them only recently. I'll have to investigate on my own," Miss Aimee voiced.

"Wait, who did you confront?" Gustav paused while questioning with a suspicious look.

"Those old geezers... what do they call themselves... council lords I believe," Miss Aimee replied with a ridiculing tone.

"You confronted the council lords? Why?" Gustav questioned once more with a worried tone.

"About the incoming danger. The eye that appeared in the miljy way," Miss Aimee responded.

"But we don't know much about that yet," Gustav nearly facepalmed.

"Exactly. If there is a join investigation from the resources powers all across the universe, it would make things faster and ease the burden on your side too," Miss Aimee explained.

"Hmm, true," Gustav agreed.

"Those geezers were annoying. The idiots think I am out of my mind," Miss Aimee voiced with a calm but cold tone.

"I hope you didn't kill anyone?"Gustav stared at her from the side of his eyes with a suspicious look once more.

"Miss Aimee!!!" He yelled her name when she failed to respond.

"I didn't but next time I might not be so nice," She voiced with a straight face.

'I see why they say I took after her,' Gustav sighed in relief as they continued moving about.

Gustav and Miss Aimee went on to tour the eighth disk after their time on the ninth disk. Gustav was still unaware that Miss Aimee's real body had arrived in planet Ozious and was floating in the stars above.

She was currently staring down upon the planet like a guardian angel from space but not a single soul was aware of her presence except for Grand commander Shion who only founf out because she chose to tell him.

"Now to find the corrupt mouse responsible for spilling information," Miss Aimee muttered in space as she peered forward.

Before the day ended, Gustav happened to meet a familiar individual he hadn't seen in about a year.

"Stark? What are you doing here?" Gustav was pleasantly surprised to see the leader of one of the biggest families on earth right here.

"Did you forget that my family is very rich?" Stark responded sarcastically as his dark braids swam in the wind.

"You're late, I didn't think they'd let anyone join the spectators at this time," Gustav said with a light chuckle.

"Yeah there was a lot going on back home which caused my lateness but let me not bore you with the details," Stark voiced with a strong tone.
