1107 Chapter 1107: Toast

"No."

The Overseer has spent perhaps more than an hour divulging her plan and desire to go on the offensive against the Order of Nothing. Throughout the years, The Order of Everything has spent their effort in rescuing people from the Order of Nothing, but all they were doing was just adding refugees on top of refugees — nothing really changes.

They couldn't attack them before since they were obviously not fit for battle — the Nothing Nothing squad was their only elite force. And that elite force was made into a laughing stock by Riley—no.

The Overseer saw everything through her screen. The moment Riley leaped from Captain Kuhoo's ship, she already saw just how powerful Riley was — able to fly through the expanse of space without even any support, able to pry open the walls of a ship with his bare hands, and able to control the blasts with his mind?

Such a force was something she never truly had seen before. With his Pink Helmet, the Overseer initially thought that he was a new member of the Nothing Nothing squad — but the Nothing Nothing squad seemed as confused as her, perhaps even more so.

But then it all made sense when she realized that it was actually the two refugees that were just rescued several hours ago — the two who claimed to be from the Unknown. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

But alas, although the Overseer spent more than an hour trying to explain the situation to them, Riley just flat out refused.

"But... you can help people," the Overseer explained, "And if you took over the Nothing Nothing squad as Aurora said, then that means you are also taking over their responsibility."

"No," Riley once again shook his head as he took a bite of his carrot cake. It wasn't actually only him, the Nothing Nothing squad, Miss Pepondosovich, and the Overseer were currently just casually sitting on the sofas and eating dessert,

"I am not the captain of the Nothing Nothing squad anymore."

"But I thought—"

"That was earlier," Riley continued to shake his head before looking at Red Helmet. Well, she was no longer wearing her helmet since she was eating, as well as the rest of the Nothing Nothing squad; all of them with their eyes wide as they look at Riley.

"Oh man," Yellow Helmet let out a very long and deep sigh, closing his eyes that also had irises the shape of a star similar to Aurora aka Red Helmet. He then shook his head, showing his utmost disappointment, "And here I thought we'd be earning more money. No offense, Red."

"...You're still not satisfied with what you got?" Aurora raised an eyebrow as she looked at her childhood friend.

"How can I when you received double than mine!?" Yellow Helmet then pointed at Blue and Green Helmet, "I'm sure they're not satisfied too."

"I have more than enough." "I can already buy my neighbor's house with this."

"See? You're just greedy," Aurora clicked her tongue as she looked at Yellow Helmet from head to toe.

Surprisingly, all the members of the Nothing Nothing squad looked human — well, they obviously were not as they had other features not present with humans.

Yellow Helmet and Aurora have star-shaped irises. Blue Helmet's ears were incredibly long and pointed, while Green Helmet did not really have a nose. And from what Riley and Miss Pepondosovich have seen, the entire population of Everywhere are all humanoids.

Perhaps the Unknown did not have cephaloids and other more limbed intelligent species?

"Everyone," the Overseer loudly cleared her throat to get everyone's attention, "Riley Ross — then please at the very least, let me formally ask for your help in dealing with the Order of Nothing."

"That..."

"Do not mind Miss Pepondosovich, Everyone," Riley let out a small sigh as he shook his head, "But my sentiment remains the same, I will not help you with this — we are only here to sightsee and will leave in 2 weeks."

"Leave...?" The Overseer sighed, "Where... are you headed?"

"Nowhere," Riley blinked a couple of times as he pointed at the window, "Further that way, opposite from where we came from, and then farther and farther away until we reach the end of the growing universe — and then we travel again and ride its waves toward nowhere — bordering in and out of the universe."

"Are you two... gods?" The Overseer whispered, and as she did so, the Nothing Nothing squad just held their breaths.

"No," Riley shook his head, "But she is."

"!!!"

Everyone's eyes turned wide as they all looked at Miss Pepondosovich.

"What the—why did you have to blurt that out, Riri!?" Miss Pepondosovich's eyes also turned wide.

"You shared information about me, Miss Pepondosovich," Riley shrugged, "I assumed I could also share information about you with complete strangers. Miss Pepondosovich is a God of Luck, she also helps advance my story due to her innate skill to go where I need to be."

"A... God of Luck?" The Overseer looked at Miss Pepondosovich, "Then does that mean that while you are staying here in Everywhere...

...is it possible that we will also encounter luck?"

"I suppose that is possible," Riley once again shrugged, "But it depends."

"...On what?"

"On whether what would be best for me," Riley let out a small hum.

"What...?"

"That's right," Miss Pepondosovich crossed her arms, "I told you — you should treat Riley with more care; it will always be up to him whether or not you will get something good, or something bad. So...

...How about giving us a nice suite during our stay?"

Miss Pepo scaring everyone for that suite
