Chapter 675 Lord's Perspective

The auction started with an antique coin dated back to thousands of years and proceeded with a ring. It was conducted in the size order from small to big.

The items were presented by the respected seller, and they were given a minute to talk about their things, and then they would set a starting bidding price. Kim would do the bidding call and get the item sold using her remarkable anchoring abilities.

Rudy realized that the houses would be the last one on the list, which made him lose interest in the auction quicker than the time it took him to teleport from one place to another.

SIGH!

He got off the chair and relaxed on the bed.

"What's wrong?" Alice asked.

"Wake me up when the auction gets to the house part."

"Are you not interested in other items? Something might pique your interest, you know?"

"I highly doubt. I lose interest in things pretty quickly as I can simply touch them, copy them, and create the same thing. It no longer stays unique."

"Counterfeit is a serious crime," Alice grinned.

"I know. And I was saying that I could do that, not that I would actually do it unless I owned the item. However, if there is something you want or piques 'your' interest, do let me know. I will buy it for you. Consider it a present for coming with me."

Alice had taken a liking to the auction and was curious whenever she saw a new item being presented.

"The prices of such small items are being sold is ridiculous. I can't imagine how much they would sell a house for."

Rias glanced at Rudy and said, "And he has to buy a house big enough for all his harem members to settle in."

"How much money do you have?" Alice asked.

"I am not sure what's my worth in the Underworld. But the last time I checked, I was nearing a trillion dollars," Rudy answered nonchalantly.

"What?"! Alice exclaimed in surprise. "Wait, doesn't that mean you are currently the richest person in the world?"

"Maybe maybe not."

"Why are you so laid back about this? Shouldn't you be more excited?"

"As I said a while ago, nothing makes me interested or excited except three things. One is girls. Second is girls. And third is girls."

"..."

Rias and Alice gave a judging stare at Rudy.

"Okay, I was kidding. I get excited about three things. One is girls. The second is when I create a new power and successfully manage to execute it. And third is s.e.x, although you can include that in the first. So I guess only two things make me excited."

"Is this what people call 'suffering from success'?" Alice asked in a low voice.

"Also, the t.i.tle of the richest person in the world doesn't actually mean anything. You stop giving value to something you already have. I am not saying you neglect them or do not care about them at all, but it wouldn't be like the time when they didn't have the said thing.

And the richest person in the world would be so rich that they wouldn't let the world know that they are the richest. They can technically control the entire world's economy. They can destroy it, to be honest.

If they decide to give away their money equally to everyone in the world, inflation will rise like my d.i.c.k when I see you girls naked. That is the very reason poverty exists. People hate poverty, but it's actually the savior of the world's economy. You have to live according to the system of the matrix, those who break it can change their destiny and survive."

"..."

"It may be hard for you to understand. I wouldn't have seen the world from that perspective either if I wasn't the Lord. It's crazy how powerful people can turn the world upside down with just one move," he a.s.serted in a solemn voice.

"That's scary"

"Which is why humans and the human world have always been so despicable," Rias stated. "I would still suggest you to move into another world. You don't have to leave anyone behind either."

"How will I not leave anyone behind?"

"The only person you were attached to in the human world who you were worried to leave behind is Rebecca. And now she is in your harem, so you can take her with you."

"What about Elena?"

"You can take her as well."

"And what about her kids?"

"Take them too."

"So what about their life here? What about their friends? Elena is a business tyc.o.o.n. She has devoted half of her life to her business. If I asked her to come with me, she would follow me without asking any questions. But I can't ask her to leave everything behind.

Eric and Erika also have a life here, you know? What about Reina? She has been working hard for the waterpark and soon-to-be amus.e.m.e.nt park. Everyone has a life here, and I can't just ask them to come with me to a place they don't belong."

"But we followed you. Didn't I come to the human world even though I hate it so much?"

"..."

"Forget it." Rias sighed. "Otherwise, Alice would say I am starting an argument again."

"Fine, I will think about your request. But know that it will take a long time. We will live in the human world but settle in another world.

If it's a must, I will simply create a new world of your dreams where only we will live. And by we, I mean me and the harem. I have been thinking about it ever since I returned from the past, but I didn't know if I would actually work on it.

I am the Lord and every Lord, the ones before me and the ones that will come after me they all have one job, which is to maintain the balance. I don't think I have done anything Lord-like yet."

"Let's see, saving the universe from a psycho ancient ent.i.ty does count as a job fit for a Lord. Why don't you ever credit yourself for your achievements?" Rias asked with a serious look on her face, her face showed a hint of disappointment.

"I don't really feel like I defeated Asura. He found out the truth and kind of killed himself," Rudy shrugged.
