Chapter 730: 672 A Humble Man

When the door opened, they were blasted with loud songs. Still, not a single noise could be heard outside the room when the door was closed.

Eight high-rank Underblades in the room, two in each corner. There were a dozen girls dancing inside, and the room reeked with the smell of perfume and alcohol.

'What happened to the 'room is not suitable for six people'?,' Rudy uttered inwardly. 'And why are there so many girls in the room? The pass only allowed two people. Whoever the guest is, he must be a big shot of the underworld.'

A girl had opened the door, but soon an old man walked into their sight and greeted Rudy and Ruby.

"Yes? Is there anything you need?" he asked.

"You are…" Rudy raised his brows and said, "Well, hello there. Long time no see."

Rudy greeted him with a grin.

"Uhm… do I know you from somewhere?" the old man asked.

"You forgot about me? Well, I guess, it's been eighteen years, so you can't recognize me." Rudy poked his finger at the old scar on the old man's neck and said, "Remember me now?"

The old man placed his hand on the scar and said, "I got this in the riots in the underworld eighteen years ago."

"I know. And I am the guy who saved you. Not to mention… all the wealth you got from me…"

"Oh! I remember you now!" the old man exclaimed.

The old man was none other than the merchant Rudy used to visit in the Underworld to trade the gold with money.

"But… why do you look the same even after all these years? Did you have advanced surgery? Or is it something else? Please tell me! I would like to be young again."

"I can make you look young too, but that wouldn't change anything from the insides. Do you still want it?" Rudy asked curiously.

"If I say yes, the wrinkles on my face will vanish, but the pain in my joints won't?"

"Indeed."

"Will my sex drive change? Will I be able to last longer on the bed?"

"Sadly, that's a factory default. You can't change that, especially at this age."

"Sadge. Then I would like to stay the same. More or less, I won't lose anything. The fortune I obtained from trading with you for a year made me who I am today. What brought you here?" the old man asked sincerely.

"Would you like to exchange the rooms?"

"Uhm…" the old man looked at the girls busy dancing in the room and said, "I could say yes, but… the room is a mess. The interior is the same in all the rooms, so that's not an issue."

"That's okay. I can clean up the mess."

"Well… sure. I wouldn't say no to my lucky charm."

'I would have much preferred if a hot lady called me a 'lucky charm' instead of an old man.'

The music stopped, and the old man left the room with the girls and the guards.

"Come on girls, the night is still young. We are going to have much more fun!" the old man said as he spanked two girls with both hands.

Rudy turned to Ruby's guard and said, "Can you show them the room?"

The guard nodded and took them all to the elevator.

The old man waved his hand at Rudy and said, "Laters~ And yeah… happy bidding~!"

Rudy entered the room, and Ruby followed him.

"When he said the room is messy, I assumed there would be drinks and glasses all over the room, but…" Ruby shook her head and said, "This is next-level messy."

Rudy stood in the middle of the room and began to fix the room using his telekinesis powers.

"I am surprised you knew the old man."

"Why?"

"You don't know? Everyone in the Underworld knows him. He is like a celebrity there."

"I had no idea, nor do I care about it."

"He owns at least three villas in each and every Underworld in the world. He is also the producer and funder behind most of the events that happen in the Underworld. Most likely, he is funding this auction too."

"All thanks to me. And no wonder he was allowed to have so many girls in the room and also a tight security."

Rudy gathered the drinks at one place and turned to Ruby, "Do you drink?"

"No. I never saw the appeal, nor I ever understood why people drink."

"At least, we can agree on that one. "

Anything that can be addictive is a big no for me. Ain't no way I will be a slave to addiction," Ruby asserted.

"I was the same. Until…" Rudy sighed.

"Until?" Ruby asked curiously.

"I became an addict."

"Wait, do you drink? Or are you talking about gambling addiction? To be honest, I don't consider that as an addiction. It's more or less like a job for me."

"No, I was talking about sex. I am a sex addict, but I think I have got it under control… kind of."

"Anything can be addictive… if that makes you feel any better."

Rudy continued fixing the room and burned the trash into nothing, not even leaving the ash behind.

Ruby sat on the bed and said, "It must be awesome to be able to do all that effortlessly."

"It may seem effortless, but it requires a lot of hard work and precision. When I was learning to control telekinesis, I would accidentally break things. Those were tough times."

"I guess I was wrong about you," Ruby muttered.

"Hmm?"

"You are not a total asshole."

"Is that supposed to be a compliment? Because if it is, I am sure there could have been a better way to say it."

"Looking at the old man reminded me of the harsh truth."

"Oh?"

"Rich people, good-looking people, and strong people can have whatever they want."

"Uhh… what are you trying to say?" Rudy asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"I am talking about sex partners. They can have multiple girls or boys to have sex with and change them once they are done using them. They can have as many partners as they have but the only thing keeping them together is sex.

Meanwhile, you are rich, handsome, and powerful— more than anyone else in the world. Yet, you don't do the things the others do. You have multiple partners, but you are in a mutually loving relationship with them.

You are… humble." Ruby sighed and added, "I can't believe I am saying this, but I respect you a little now."

"Hey, Hey, Don't fall in love with me," Rudy teased her.

"Heh! Don't flatter yourself."
