Chapter 56: One-Man Team?
Luca noticed how fidgety Ollie got the whole ride back. He was jumpy, and kept checking on him.
Technically, who wouldn’t be this nervous when his brother was such a person? What if someone realized how fantastic Luca was and just snatched him on the way back?
Ollie was too much of a chicken shit to fight back, and all he was good at was screaming at the opponent like that would help. And maybe throwing money. All he could possibly help with was to ransom the guy.
He sighed all the way back, thinking of a way to improve himself for reasons that were totally unbelievable to Luca, who had a totally different set of concerns.
Luca still felt guilty about spending so much money even though he intended to replace it, so he decided to send a few more fruits, like the watermelon. With the address and contact number he got, he figured it would be fine to just send some over.
That evening, two organizations were flipping about two totally different things, but both unknowingly caused by the same person.
Come nightfall, some marketgoers, primarily soldiers, realized that a string of shops towards the end of the street were closed.
Some couldn’t help but ask, only to receive high praise about the military being so efficient that even a student could dispatch corrupted beasts by himself.
Several vendors praised the very confused soldiers and wondered what was happening because no alarm had been raised.
And they were saying a student did it?
“What about the clean-up, sir? Had members of the military gone here earlier?” He was wondering how they could open when the area should be under strict clean-up if the monsters were here earlier.
“Especially that! Why, sir, really, the youth are capable these days!”
“What do you mean by that, Uncle?” The soldier’s expression reflected the absurdity of the situation. He was even more stunned to hear that one student took care of the cleanup, literally taking all the contaminated items and cleaning the stores and houses involved.
“Which houses were affected, Uncle?” He was preparing to contact the military when the vendor pointed towards the shops close by.
He ran over to inspect them, and they were clean. He wouldn’t associate this street with contamination if he didn’t hear anything about beasts running over.
He was an ordinary soldier, but he knew that this had to be reported to the higher-ups.
On another planet, Duke Leander was facing an array of items allegedly sent over by his son.
When he saw them, his initial reaction was to have them preserved as generational keepsakes. But Butler Gary said he couldn’t do that as the Young Lord specified that this had to be consumed and done so as fast as possible.
At first, the Duke had no idea why he would demand such a thing, but then the Butler explained that these weren’t ordinary fruits. And he would’ve easily known had he been allowed to use his abilities.
All of these were spiritual fruits.
The best he had ever seen in all his years as a buyer for the Duke.
He couldn’t believe it the first time he saw it too. But he was given one, and for the sake of being the Duke’s food taster, he tasted the apple that he actually wanted to preserve.
Lo and behold, he saw paradise.
The ship carrying them back changed course to use the shortest jump points possible. Those were official channels opened in case of an emergency, and houses such as the House of Kyros were definitely able to commandeer them when needed.
Butler Gary did so and with absolutely no remorse.
They had been waiting so long for something like this. And he would be damned if he got blocked by anyone.
When they got back, Butler Gary forgo unnecessary things, such as fixing himself to look presentable.
Semantics, there were more pressing things than his hair looking like a chicken nest.
Duke Leander admittedly found that surprising, but now that he had heard the reason for the sudden behavior, he could only marvel at the recent changes in their lives.

Not only was his son cured, but he even managed to send over such good things to his ailing father.
It’s safe to say that when the doctors were called to check on the Duke’s condition, they were initially frazzled and ran in as if there were an emergency.
That day, everyone who went into the Duke’s room kept on running in and then crawling out.
One moment, he was very sick, and the next, he was laughing uncontrollably, especially when they heard about a sudden package from the Young Lord.
Duke Leander had just managed to recover some of his strength, but when he heard about the delivery, he wanted to clamber into the mail room.
Thankfully, everyone else realized that the Duke would go to them if they dilly-dallied.
They brought over a large box that was too heavy and needed at least two servants.
Everyone was curious about the package until the Butler suddenly silenced everyone.
“Shh! The Young Lord sent over a message!”
The people gathered immediately quieted, especially those who had met Luca just the other day. They held him to a different standard, and so they were much more obedient than expected.
“Butler Gary, I hope this message finds you well. I sent over a small token: a watermelon fruit. Please give the Duke some, and if there are extras, share them with the others. Thank you for visiting. I hope you’re all doing well.”
He read the letter slowly and was on the verge of crying when the Duke suddenly opened the box.
It was a giant green blob.
“Luca mentioned that this was a watermelon?”
Now, these people who were rushing to go home didn’t see the Star Mall craze and had no idea what a watermelon was.
But one of the maids, a resident gossip lover, followed the story. When she saw the contents of the box, she exclaimed, “Oh my! I know that! I saw that on the forums!”
“What is it supposed to be?” Asked the Duke.
“Your Grace, this is the most talked about fruit in the Empire! This is a watermelon that’s likely sold from that very special shop! Many say that the fruits they bought from there were practically miracle makers!”
The staff was excited, and the people who had a chance to taste the apples they had received from Luca were incredibly excited.
Because they knew, and ‘special’ wouldn’t be enough to describe it.
What made the people love Duke Leander was his generosity.
While many nobles would’ve taken it all for themselves, the Duke readily followed his son’s wishes to share his gift.
Well, technically, the Duke would’ve loved to hold a commemorative ceremony for it and store it as a treasure, but his son had instructions, and he was a good father.
When the watermelon was split open as they imitated the forum photos, the duchy saw an increase in loyalty and belief.
Their Young Lord was the best. He even thought about all of them, even as he was toiling in school!
Cries of appreciation could be heard around the Manor while the ears of a certain spender itched as he wallowed in slight guilt.
I promise I’ll return the money!
