Chapter 218: Super Speed.
Leo was standing under the podium with the rest of the people, when Dallas, who finished his speech, picked up the huge trophy, which was made like a 1F race car pinned to the asphalt in a slant shape, and walked over to Leo. He extended the trophy to the man and said, "All my life, the one thing that obsessed me was racing, and gradually I discovered that I had yet to become a proper racer. Today, you showed me what it means to be a racer. This trophy should belong to you."
Leo was surprised, and the people around him began to clap and cheer. The young wanted to deny but then he realized that the system has not pinged him about the mission clearance. He reached out and accepted the trophy and said, "Thank you."
Dallas shook his head and replied, "Thanks to you, Rony is a good kid, he is just starting in the racing world and he is a dear friend to me, thank you for what you did."
Leo realized why Dallas was being so kind, and the host of the ceremony suddenly said, "Ladies and Gentlemen, I have a word for you all. the drivers all applied for reverting the decision of Mister Dallas being given the first place. The Racing Association has agreed and decided that Mister Cardinal is the official winner of the race."
The crowd cheered loudly, and Lily jumped in the air as well. After a few moments, three huge Champagne bottles were brough over, and the ceremony was held for the second time. Leo received the trophy and then he took a opened one bottle and took a sip as Dallas and Terence sprayed the contents of his bottle over him. Leo covered his face, as the people cheered and then he returned the favor to them.
Boys will be boys, and as the ceremony came to an end, and the system pinged, ’Pinged: Congratulations host, you have earned the title of the Speed King. Reward, ten speed attribute points will be assimilated in your status, you can lock and unlock them for full use as you wish.’
Leo returned to the paddock and then he went to the bathroom to clean himself up. As the water poured down on him, he asked, ’System, bring up the attribute panel.’
