"I'm sorry, Mr. Rudius."
"I'm so sorry."
As the broker spoke, he emerged from behind the glass counter, grabbed the Cosmic Orb, and shoved it into Rudeus's arms, then pushed him away.
"I will absolutely not get involved in any deal that involves Ronan."
"It seems that the name Ronan is more impactful than the name Star-Lord."
Kazuma Sato said this in a deliberately teasing tone.
"This broker should be a Xandar, and based on the previous descriptions of Ronan, he is a radical, a terrorist, and a madman."
"Clearly, the Xandarians are most afraid of people like Ronan."
"Didn't you see that Ronan made a deal with Thanos to destroy Xandar?"
Hachiman Hikigaya said that he felt Ronan was the kind of person who would do anything to take revenge on you, and that the most touching and terrifying thing was this kind of madman.
After all, it's not the thief's presence that's scary, but the thief's interest.
Ronan, this "thief," was constantly thinking about how to destroy Xandar.
"Hey, ooh ooh ooh."
"Who exactly is Ronan? Why are you so afraid of him?"
Rudeus regained his footing, and the broker couldn't move him. Rudeus looked at the broker, puzzled, and asked...
[How come Ronan's name is so powerful that it can intimidate people so easily, while no one has ever heard of Star-Lord's name.]
"A Kree madman, enraged by the peace treaty."
"Unless the entire Xandarian civilization, my civilization, is completely destroyed."
"Otherwise, I've decided I won't let Ronan get away with this."
The broker's tone was filled with fear of Ronan.
After speaking, the broker continued to push Rudeus, trying to push him out of his shop.
"Come on, it can't be that serious."
"I can't afford to mess with someone like Ronan."
"No way, so... so I can mess with them?"
Rudius felt inferior upon hearing the broker's words.
"Farewell, Mr. Rudius."
The broker didn't answer Rudeus's question directly. Instead, he waved his hand, reopening the shop door that had closed after Rudeus entered. He then shoved Rudeus out and slammed the door shut.
"We had an agreement, buddy!"
Rudius shouted towards the shop door.
After Rudius shouted, he turned around and saw Alice Boreas, a beautiful woman with bright red hair, leaning against the wall.
Rudius also felt that shouting at the door earlier had damaged his image.
【"What's wrong?"】
Rudyus's silence doesn't mean Alice Boreas will remain silent.
"Ugh, this guy, he's so ruthless."
[Rudius, seeing the beautiful woman ask a question, also spoke up.]
"What I hate most is a man who doesn't keep his word."
"Rudeus Grellatt, everyone calls me Star-Lord."
Rudeus introduced himself to Alice.
"It's clear you're a gentleman."
"I'm not that great, but that's what everyone says about me. I don't usually praise myself like that."
Happy Mother's Day, May 520th!
Rudeus praised himself as he continued to toy with the cosmic orb in his hand.
Rudeus remained completely unconcerned about Alice's gradual approach, or rather, he never suspected her of having any ill intentions.
When Alice approached Rudeus, he was still rambling on and on. Suddenly, Alice reached out and snatched the Cosmic Orb that Rudeus had been toying with.
[Then Alice kicked Rudeus in the chest before he could react to the snatching of the Cosmic Orb from his hand.]
"Aaaaaah!"
Rudeus was also kicked backward by Alice and cried out in pain.
After kicking Rudeus, Alice turned and ran. Rudeus, seeing Alice fleeing, didn't rush to chase after her, but instead rubbed the spot where she had kicked him.
Then Rudeus pulled out a laser energy lock from his pocket, activated it, and hurled it at Alice.
[Thanks to the Xandarians who voluntarily made way for Alice, not only was it easier for her to run, but the energy locks that Rudeus threw could also accurately hit her.]
After the laser energy lock flew from Rudeus's hand, it extended and, after striking Alice's back, automatically descended towards her legs.
[Finally, the laser energy lock reached Alice's knee joint and rapidly began to wrap around her.]
Alice, whose knee had been suddenly entangled, lost her balance and fell face-first to the ground. Fortunately, she reacted quickly and braced herself with her hands, but the cosmic orb in her hand slipped from her grasp.
[Before Rudyus arrived, Alice had also unlocked the abilities at lightning speed.]
Rudeus leaped forward, attempting to pin Iris down, but unfortunately, as Rudeus took flight, Iris also released the laser energy lock on her knee joint.
Then Alice kicked Rudeus hard in the stomach, sending him sprawling to the side, landing right next to her.
In a short span of time, Rudius had taken two heavy blows to the abdomen. He felt like his stomach was about to explode. Fortunately, his physical condition was quite good, otherwise he would probably be writhing on the ground clutching his stomach.
Alice didn't rush to get up; instead, she immediately attacked Rudeus, who was lying beside her.
Rudeus hurriedly raised his hand to block and defend, but it was clear that Rudeus was no match for Alice in ground fighting techniques, and he was forced to retreat steadily by Alice.
Rudeus was also planning to unleash his elemental power, but Alice saw through his plan. She quickly stood up and pinned Rudeus down, pinning his hand, which was trying to draw his gun, down with her left knee.
"You can't blame me for that."
On the other side, Rocket Raccoon, along with Groot, was also searching for Rudeus's whereabouts. Upon noticing that the crowd seemed to be drawn to something, Rocket Raccoon and Groot rushed over.
"Damn it, that's my prey, Groot! Let's go! I'll get the woman off me, and you put the man in the bag."
Rocket Raccoon saw Rudyus pinned down and became anxious, fearing that someone else would beat him to his $4000 target.
From Rocket Raccoon's perspective, that woman was one of his colleagues, all of whom were there for Rudius.
Rocket Raccoon activated his rocket backpack and charged towards Alice, with Groot following behind carrying a large bag.
Alice looked down at Rudeus, and the next second Rudeus saw Alice, who was on top of him, being knocked away by a small black shadow that flew over from the side.
"Rudius and Alice."
Keima Katsuragi looked at Rudeus and Alice on the screen, a man who had conquered 10000 million girls in galgames.
It was also very quick to sense what would happen between Rudeus and Alice.
The most likely explanation is a romantic relationship.
Furthermore, if we broaden our thinking a bit further and consider otherworldly visual novels...
Keima Katsuragi believes that Rudeus, Alice, Rocket Raccoon, and Groot will even form a team.
Suddenly, Keima Katsuragi thought of Guardians of the Galaxy.
"Maybe."
"Put him in the bag, put him in the bag."
[While Rocket Raccoon held Alice down, he kept shouting urging Groot on.]
[Groot, carrying a large bag, approached, and then, to Rudeus's astonishment, numerous branches sprouted from Groot's body and reached towards Rocket Raccoon and Iris.]
"No, it's not her, it's him, the man on the ground!"
Instead of pinning Alice down, Rocket Raccoon slumped over her head, much like Jokey, the special infected in Left 4 Dead.
Rocket Raccoon panicked when he saw Groot coming to grab Alice, fearing that Rudeus on the ground would escape.
"Speaking of which, with this group causing trouble on Xandar, won't any officials come and do something about it?"
Saitama watched Rudeus and his group causing a ruckus in the street through the light screen and pondered for a moment before speaking.
"They should be able to handle it, maybe they're on their way."
"Or perhaps their antics are still within acceptable limits."
King guessed, since he had never been to another planet and naturally did not understand alien laws, so he did not know how to deal with people from other civilizations.
"You need to know the difference between genders."
Rocket Raccoon swayed on Alice's head, like he was playing a game of Cowboy Bebop.
"Ouch, hey, it doesn't bite."
