( The real world, Sector D )
For the second straight day after being exposed as the number two player, Leo chose to skip work using MP, as he felt that the environment outside was still too heated for him to show his face.
Although he knew that he could not ignore this problem forever and would have to face it sooner or later, he did not want that day to be until he finished the grand tournament at least, as for now, he wanted to shift all of his focus to winning the tournament.
His life was still hanging in the balance, with him winning the Grand Tournament being the only way for him to save his own skin.
