“It’s fine. You guys don’t have to investigate it. I knew about it already.”
“Huh?”
Selena hung up.
Right then, Pollux left the Empire Group’s database. “Come on, kiddo. Call me your master!”
However, Joaquin refused to say it. Besides dressing shabbily, Pollux was also rude, uncultured, as well as arrogant—this was the kind of person that he disliked the most.
Selena knew that Joaquin had never met any worthy opponents on his hacking journey. Moreover, he hadn’t got into contact with any other hackers as he was too young, so it was an understatement to say he was discontented.
“Kiddo, you have to admit your defeat since you agreed to the bet, alright? Or are you a sore loser?” Pollux’s words triggered Joaquin again.
However, Joaquin only glared at him harshly and didn't say anything.
Then, Selena anxiously suggested, “Pollux, I’ve prepared a few dishes, but I’m not sure whether it suits your taste. Still, why don’t you head over to eat after so much hard work?”
Pollux rubbed his nose. He hadn’t noticed the food’s scent at all as he was too invested in the competition just now.
“Sure. I’m hungry anyway.”
After the servant guided Pollux to the dining area, Selena squatted down and placed both her hands on Joaquin’s shoulders, “Jojo, are you discontented?”
“I really don’t want him to be my master! He’s smelly, dirty, and arrogant! He’s literally uncultured!” Joaquin finally spoke.
“Jojo, do you know that there’s always someone that’s better than us? That guy, Pollux, is currently the holder of the number one seat of the Hacker Leaderboard. Rumor has it that there’s no people or things that he couldn’t find out in this world.”
Joaquin looked at Selena. “Is he that powerful?”
