Chapter 289 What happens to a protagonist when the ring grandpa wakes up?

Rio played with the pair of rings in his hands as Esme paid for them. Rio looked ahead and noticed Leon staring at him with fixed eyes. Thinking of something, he waved the rings in the air and caught them in his hands.

Next time he threw the rings again, but instead of catching them, he just snapped his fingers as a red flame appeared and burned the rings to ashes.

Leon, who saw this scene, nearly jumped from his seat and shouted while pointing fingers at him. Forget about that ring's special feeling he got, that guy spent 150 million on it, does it make sense to burn it right in front of everyone.

Alfred and Vanessa who saw this scene were smirking, thinking their previous guesses were right.

[If you want to play with people's emotions so much, how about you buy the feature called 'Negative meter' - with this feature unlocked, every time any protagonist or supporting character hates you or feels any negative emotions towards you, you'll receive corresponding rewards.]

System, who saw its host playing tricks after placing the real rings into its storage, spoke up. Promoting business.

But Rio knew all too well how this stupid system always eyed his hard earned points. So instead of agreeing instantly after hearing the fancy promo introduction, he decided to ask about the price first.

And counting how many zeroes the system placed before writing the word 'only' at the end, Rio directly slapped it away.

'half a million points for some sassy feature. Which I'll get eventually for free when I kill a few hidden ants in some towers.' Rio said remembering every tower floor is a separate world, and every world has a protagonist.

Ignoring the next up boring auction Rio just became indifferent to all the items and decided to leave. Informing the waiter, they waited for a few moments before they were led to a teleportation gate, once clear by some security checks, Rio and esme directly left the auction and appeared in a fancy hotel under Nishkal family's name.

Rio sent Esme back to do her work and then went to his office. And enacted the highest security options. Where other than him no one else could take even a step inside without triggering hundreds of traps. Not even SS rankers.

As soon as he felt that he was alone, he closed his eyes. And when he opened his eyes, he was standing in a lush forest with a giant tree in the middle. Where long long orbs of different colors floated being entangled by the branches. This was his system stage and his own VFX Yggdrasil.

[I warn you host, it's all on you now. Once the timer goes over all the gods would be able to come and go or listen and see as usual. Finish your interrogation fast.]

Hearing the system's suggestions Rio nodded his head and prepared himself.

Reginald/Reggie went forward to take Leon's pulse and frowned after sensing it. Coming back, he whispered something in Alfred's ears and stepped back.

"Prince, he's useless. His body has a lot of indisposed vitality and herbs aura lingering around. He probably ate too many pills or potions together to boost his rank in a short time and suffered a backlash."

Hearing Reggie's analysis Alfred finally understood how this idiot was able to rise so fast in ranks. From an unawakened cripple to a genius C- rank in just two years. It was clear, his foundation was poor and he relied on pills or potions to rank up. But today his body must've given up. Breaking his foundation with a backlash.

Leon would've still been somewhat useful at rank C but now this idiot even fell from his original rank and became a D- ranker. Which is normal for his age, but against geniuses of other noble families he was no match.

'Crippled bastard' Alfred said in disdain and waved his hands. Signaling the guards to take Leon away from him.

He was already raising a crippled heir of a Duke, there's no need to add another Baron's crippled son.

All the while Rebecca just kept silent and frowned even more seeing Leon's conditions. Her thoughts were the same as Alfred's. At first she thought Leon was a genius but looking at it now, she was probably expecting too much.
