章 266: Are you dumb?

( Back in the real world, Luke and Leo's apartment, The Arc Ship )

As Luke walked out of his room, he found Amanda and Leo waiting for him in the hall outside clapping, as Luke immediately felt embarrassed about being treated as a victorious hero when he had fallen short of a victory.

"Haha, thanks Amanda. But I don't deserve it" Luke said, as Amanda hugged him tightly to console him.

She was a girl and had no reservations about showing her affection through physical touches and hence when words failed her, she preferred conveying her emotions with a hug.

"You fought well…. I saw it all" Leo said nodding his head as he conveyed his silent appreciation for Luke.

"Also, I have some great news brother…. I did some illegal gambling during your fight with The Boss and won close to 2500 MP.

I think we'll be able to afford a nice ticket for mother after all" Leo said, as Luke immediately shivered listening to his words.
