Watching the Drama Without Fear of Making Things Worse

After Dam left the Celebrity Hotel, he felt lighter than he had at any point before.

A steady stream of strength surged through his body, making him walk faster and faster.

Dam desperately wanted to share this good news with his friends and have them believe in the Void as well.

That way, they could all change their fate of spending their entire lives as doormen.

However, Dam decided to wait a few more days.

Dam was not someone who forgot his roots, but he needed to first understand the power he now possessed.

Then, after showing it to his companions, he would be able to convince them to believe in the great Void alongside him.

Although Lord Kassadin had not directly instructed him to do so, the teachings of the Void Cult stated that the Void would give everyone one chance.

That meant he could persuade others to believe in the Void as well.

Just thinking about it made Dam happy. He was glad he had not used his only opportunity to join the Nova Corps.

Lord Kassadin had not deceived him. As long as he grew stronger and stronger, he would be able to obtain everything he wanted.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Sonia noticed that Mr. Kassadin had not left his room these past few days.

Other than bringing Mr. Kassadin food at mealtimes, she was basically free to rest as she pleased.

Sonia had also sampled some food and discovered that what had once merely satisfied her appetite now contained a trace of energy.

Once eaten, it continuously filled her body and slowly changed it. The more she ate, the more energy she gained.

However, Sonia did not eat too much, because she was still working for the Celebrity Hotel.

In this environment full of people she knew, if she suddenly began binge-eating, it would be easy to expose certain issues and be treated as an oddity.

Although enduring that craving in her heart was difficult, Sonia had already decided to treat it as tempering. Therefore, she ate only as much food each day as she had in the past.

This was the day of Xandar’s auction.

Sonia wore a strapless evening gown with intricate patterns, her golden hair lightly curled. The dress fully displayed her tall, graceful figure and exquisite curves.

"How much did this dress cost?"

Harvey was somewhat surprised to see that Sonia had changed into this outfit. Her temperament had shifted from pure and sweet to sexy and enchanting, and a pleasant fragrance wafted from her body.

"Since you intend to purchase land under my name, we should at least keep up appearances."

"As for the price, it is not worth mentioning. As long as Mr. Kassadin finds it pleasing to the eye."

Sonia smiled charmingly at his words.

The Celebrity Hotel catered to successful people, so the personnel assigned to each villa served as the hotel’s public face.

Therefore, every year, the villa managers had to undergo assessments of their age, appearance, figure, knowledge, upbringing, etiquette, and more.

Sonia had worked here for ten years, so naturally, she was extremely confident in her appearance.

Harvey wanted to say that they were only attending an auction and did not need to make such a grand affair of it.

"Mm, it does look quite pleasing. You can submit it for reimbursement later."

However, since Sonia had specifically changed clothes and explained that they needed to keep up appearances, Harvey did not say anything that would spoil the mood.

"Then thank you, Mr. Kassadin."

"The auction starts in an hour. Your car is ready downstairs."

Sonia smiled faintly at the praise and spoke softly.

She had already asked Mr. Kassadin about it, and he had not purchased any means of transportation on Xandar.

Naturally, she had to take care of transportation arrangements.

Harvey nodded and followed Sonia downstairs.

The moment they entered the lobby, Sonia’s changed outfit brought about an enormous shift in her demeanor.

She had gone from pure and sweet to alluring and captivating. Even though they had worked together for years, her colleagues had never seen Sonia like this, and they were all surprised.

However, when they saw Sonia walking shoulder to shoulder with Kassadin, the guest from Villa 7777, their gossiping instincts immediately ignited.

They had also heard of Kassadin. He had stayed here for several months, yet none of them had ever seen him come down from Villa 7777.

Nor had they heard of Villa 7777 hosting any parties or inviting beautiful women to stay overnight.

Thus, there had been plenty of rumors, such as Kassadin having no interest in women. Yet from the looks of things, had Sonia won him over?

Harvey sensed those gazes but did not care. He simply walked outside, where a luxury car was already waiting.

The driver was an elderly man in a suit. Though his face looked aged, his straight posture made him appear highly capable.

When he saw Kassadin and Sonia arrive, he took the initiative to open the rear door.

Harvey and Sonia got into the car and left.

"After all these years, so many people have tried to take Sonia away and failed. How did this Kassadin manage it?"

"Haven’t you heard of Kassadin?"

"His name has already spread like wildfire on planets outside Xandar."

"I’m busy every day. I hardly have time to look at Xandar’s news, much less news from other planets."

"If you know, hurry up and tell us."

"He is currently the most famous Tier 3 Bounty Hunter. Because his strength is nearly godlike, he is known as God of the Void Kassadin."

"His legendary deeds are being spread throughout the entire Milky Way Galaxy."

"Is he really that impressive? More powerful than some of the Nova Corps’ high-ranking officers?"

"I can’t say for sure, but if you don’t believe it, just look up the rumors about Kassadin on other planets."

Some beautiful women in the Celebrity Hotel lobby began gossiping eagerly.

Yet even amid their gossip, each of them remained guarded. They would not reveal something that might bring trouble upon themselves merely because of someone else’s prompting.

At the Celebrity Hotel, they were colleagues, but they were also competitors, competing in performance and capability.

The women immediately looked him up and discovered that Kassadin was not well-known on Xandar, but his reputation on other planets was frighteningly immense.

"But honestly, this is the first time I’ve seen Sonia go out with a guest in an evening gown instead of her work uniform."

"This really is unprecedented."

"She has worked here for ten years, right? If she saved it all up, she could quit anytime now and retire."

"Could she possibly be getting scammed at the very end?"

"I wonder if Sonia will suffer a huge loss later."

"Why not just wait and watch the show?"

The women gathered together, clicking their tongues in amazement.
