Chapter 489

I didn't expect the Masked Sweetheart to turn the tables.

Luo En wasn't particularly concerned.

He chuckled and said.

"If that's the case.

Then I'll leave on my own, no need for the Masked Sweetheart my lord to lift a finger."

As he spoke, he raised a screen in his hand.

"But if everyone in the Hero Association finds out.

That you posted an outdated message here.

They'll all be very surprised."

The Masked Sweetheart's expression flickered slightly.

He said, "Nonsense.

This message was posted yesterday.

How could it possibly be outdated?

You didn't see it.

That's why you're making such a question?"

Luo En said, "I think many people probably didn't see it.

This message was just posted by you."

As he spoke, he walked toward the Masked Sweetheart.

The Masked Sweetheart paused slightly.

But he wasn't intimidated by Luo En.

He said, "Even if you spread it, what does it matter?

Do you think people will believe a Rank A hero ranked first?

Or a lowly Rank B hero?"

Luo En said, "Who the public believes doesn't matter.

What matters is what the Hero Association's high-ups believe.

Who they believe.

Even if they believe you.

Do you think they'll believe you unconditionally forever? I suspect someone will eventually raise this question.

Then they'll investigate you.

When they learn what you've done.

And how deeply you've deceived them.

I doubt anyone would let you off."

The Masked Sweetheart grew visibly tense.

His current status was hard-won.

After years of battle.

Even selling his own body.

He finally achieved fame and fortune.

But how long could this status last? He had agonized over it for a long time.

Thus he constantly pushed himself to climb higher.

Slowly rising from a Rank C hero to a Rank A hero.

Even reaching the peak of Rank A heroes.

Perhaps soon.

He could become an S-class hero.

But if this stain appeared now.

He would surely never have a chance at S-class hero status.

No. This must not happen.

His gaze toward Luo En slowly turned cold.

"Do you know what happens when you threaten a Rank A hero?"

The Masked Sweetheart said coldly.

In his eyes, Luo En was already a dead man.

As a Rank A hero, his strength far surpassed that of a Rank B hero.

Especially since he stood at the very top of Rank A.

Luo En's threat had crossed his bottom line.

Luo En had anticipated this thought in the Masked Sweetheart.

He regarded the other calmly.

"Are you planning to attack me, Masked Sweetheart my lord?

Do you think I don't know your intentions?"

As he spoke, he stepped before the Masked Sweetheart.

"I've already recorded everything you've done.

If you dare lay a hand on me.

This news will reach the Hero Association soon.

The Masked Sweetheart's face turned grim.

He had thought the man before him was merely an ordinary B-rank hero.

In his eyes, the man was no more than an ant; even if he killed him, no one would say a word.

But he hadn't expected this fellow had held back something.

Now he had to think carefully.

If he moved against Luo En, and this matter got exposed,

there would be no place for him in the entire Hero Association.

Seeing the Masked Sweetheart's expression, he knew what he was thinking.

Luo En said with confidence.

"It seems you have only one path left.

That is to tell me.

What exactly are you planning? Why are you helping her forge this?"

Luo En's gaze was unwavering.

Thus, the Masked Sweetheart knew Luo En would surely follow through.

Since he said this,

he was very likely to expose this matter to the world.

"My plan has nothing to do with you.

You're merely someone who stumbled in by accident.

You have no need to understand him at all."

The Masked Sweetheart said.

He stared at Luo En, wondering whether Luo En believed his words.

Luo En certainly did not believe him.

Nine out of ten things the Masked Sweetheart said were lies.

He could feel the probing look in the Masked Sweetheart's gaze.

Probably trying to test his limits this way.

Wanting to know how much Luo En had learned.

In his view, as long as this matter remained hidden,

Luo En knew absolutely nothing.

Luo En said, "The truth I heard from others is not like that."
