Showbiz 21-Run Away

Lux's eyes locked onto the figure of the woman who sat gracefully with her back to him. Gian really did not expect, if the beautiful woman named Serena Osiris was the second older sister of the four sisters. Lux's eyes quickly shifted to Heidi who looked satisfied seeing himself humiliated.

"Lux, are you alright?" asked Thalia worriedly because the sound of Lux's fall was quite loud.

"Yes. Sorry to worry you. I'm fine— ugh!"

Gian felt that his knee was injured. A sudden pain shot up his right leg. However, he quickly masked the pain by pretending to bend over to clean his trousers as he walked slowly towards the chair he was sitting in.

"Why did you fall?" asked Apollo, looking sad.

"If my leg had eyes, it would have been able to avoid that damn glass," Lux replied irritably which made Apollo chuckle amused.

"Your presentation was great. Ah, I'm wondering, will mine be as good as yours? I've been preparing for this for a long time. Almost 4 months," said Rocco which made Gian stunned.

'4 months? I even thought about it for a few seconds on stage. Wow, these people are ready for war. This banquet is really serious,' Gian thought admiringly as he watched some meeting participants from the young group he had not read his data about.

The presentation went on. Some randomly selected guests from the youth group didn't fare much better. In fact, some were speechless and almost cried from nervousness. Even though, according to Gian, the material was very good. It's just that these young men and women don't seem to have the ability to speak in front of people and deal with criticism.

"Hm, if I teach them how to speak confidently, on point, answering a question with a question, surely the result will be amazing," Lux murmured wistfully.

"What are you saying? Teaching how to speak in front of many people without being nervous? Can you do it?" asked Apollo curiously whose question turned out to be the same as that of his table mates.

"Yes. Did you see the way I spoke earlier? I was tense, but... did you guys see me struggling up there?" Enzo and the others shook their heads. "Feel free to come to me and we'll study together. I have a super cool library at home. Come when you're free, but let me know first so you can meet me."

"Really? You invited us to study together at your house?" asked Senia excitedly and Lux nodded in confirmation.

"I am very happy to meet you, Lux Osiris. You're one of the friends who made a positive impact in my lonely life. Thank you," said Thalia which made Lux smile, but became thoughtful of the beautiful woman's words.

'She's one of the career women who is engaged in fashion and her work often gets awards. Why can she say her life is lonely? It's really strange,' Gian wondered.

TING!

'Oh, that voice is ....'

[Congratulations, Gian. You successfully completed the mission 'Lux Osiris' transformation' to make 100 people love, respect, and recognize Lux Osiris. Justin received a mission reward of health insurance. Look at the glass of wine in front of you]

Gian's smile widened. He stared at the red liquid intently as he watched his mother get a mysterious phone call. Camela screamed hysterically which made Justin and Rin who were getting ready to sleep immediately got out of bed and went to their mother.

"Justin! You have health insurance! One of the childcare organizations has registered your name and you have passed the verification. They will pay for all your treatments and medicines while you are in hospital! We're saved!" said Camela in tears as Justin gave her a big hug.

Rin looked happy because she knew that the family's finances were in bad shape. Whatever kind of assistance was given to her family, it really helped their family's economy.

"Thank goodness. Thank you, Z," Gian said softly and instantly, the image disappeared.

"You are a rare and strange type of human being because you often talk to yourself. But I like it. Let's be friends," said Enzo as he extended his hand to shake.

Gian was so happy because he finally had friends on Planet Luna. Unfortunately, that night, Enzo, Senia, Rocco, Thalia, and Apollo didn't get a chance to speak. As it turned out, not all guests were invited to make a presentation. Only 10 randomly selected people took to the stage. The event continued by enjoying the food and dancing. Lux's unique style of dancing made people laugh.

"You're like a boneless human! So flexible!" exclaimed Senia when she saw Lux imitating one of Michael Jackson's signature styles, the moonwalk.

Several people tried to imitate, but they almost fell down. Lux also danced like a robot with stiff movements and a flat face, which made the atmosphere of the dance floor even more lively. When Lux was enjoying dancing in the middle of the crowd of young people, he was suddenly pulled by his father to take him home.

"You can ask me nicely. Why pull me like I'm picking up kittens on the side of the road!" Gian exclaimed in annoyance, but his muscular body was no match for his father's strength.

Gian's new friends were at a loss for words and remained silent. They didn't dare to intervene, let alone fight the fierce mayor.

"See you again, guys! You guys are awesome!" Lux exclaimed as he walked away even though he was walking backwards.

Instantly, the smiles of Rocco and the others broke out. They followed Lux's signature 'OK' style that he had taught them.

DING!

[Identification Buff effect has expired]

Gian nodded in understanding, although he looked disappointed. However, he was satisfied that he had recognized all the guests at the event that night. He also managed to remember some of them from chatting together.

As soon as he got into the car, Yoga gave Lux his cell phone that was confiscated earlier. Lux accepted it and immediately put it into his coat pocket. But instantly, Lux's face turned serious instantly.

"Just the two of us? Where are Heidi and Serena who made me almost unable to walk?" asked Lux irritably.

"They have gone home first, Young master," replied Yoga politely.

"I asked the big man beside me, but why did you answer? Ah, whatever. However, make sure to keep those two demon women away from me."

"Oh!" Yoga was shocked when Maximo suddenly slapped Lux's cheek until the inflamed red color was clearly visible.

Maximo's attitude that reminded him of Marcos—Gian's father—made he desperately gets out of the car. He immediately ran quickly across the street.

"Sir! How is this? Young master ran away!" asked Yoga in panic.

"Zoc! Bon! Find Lux and bring him back!" the Mayor exclaimed.

"Yes, Sir!" replied Maximo's two bodyguards who swiftly chased after Lux.
