Binding System

Rivas, Olson, and Ruiz's families were shocked when they caught sight of Ace.

'Ace? What is he doing here? And why is he wearing armor? Does he want to participate in this monster subjugation?'

Countless questions emerged in their minds.

Like Henry and the others, they could not tell how stronger Ace was because there were two conditions to check other people's strength.

First, their rank must be equal to or above the target's rank. And last, the target had to use his power or energy.

Even though they were already at the Master rank, but they could not tell how strong he was because Ace did not use his power or energy.

This was the reason why they still thought that Ace was a weak young man.

When captain Noah noticed that everyone was staring at Ace, he uttered, "Ace, it seems like you have become the center of attention."

Ace did not care about it and still acted normally. Unlike Henry and the others, he could tell how strong they were because he could analyze their power with his system.

'So, Scarlett did not lie when she said the strongest awakener in this city was only at Master rank. But who is the strongest person in Nightshire city?'

Even though he could see their stats, but stats alone could not determine one's strength because fighting experience and skills were also important.

"Because everyone has arrived, let's depart now!" Scarlett spoke abruptly.

"Ace, wait here. I will bring a horse for you." After saying that, captain Noah left to bring a horse for Ace.

"Thank you, captain Noah." Ace was happy because he did not have a horse.

Shortly after that, they left the military headquarters.

"Ace, stay close to me. I will protect you later." Captain Noah spoke abruptly.

They were currently heading to the Red Ogre village. Scarlett was leading the groups with Ace on her right side and Layla on the other side.

Captain Noah and Lieutenant Valeria were on Ace's right side, while other important figures were on Layla's left side.

They did not ride their horses fast because their subordinates were following them on foot.

"Sure." Ace responded as he smiled.

As Ace was talking with Captain Noah, Sean stared at him intently.

'Just you wait, Ace. I will teach you a lesson later.'

He had Xilu poison in his space ring.

Henry gave him a space ring and Xilu poison yesterday because he agreed to poison Ace.

Xilu poison was a colorless and tasteless poison, so the target would not notice it. This poison was a poison that attacked the target's thyroid gland.

In the first hour, the target would experience low thyroid hormone levels, causing fatigue, limp and lethargy.

And in the next hour, the target would experience high thyroid, causing fast heart rate, irritability and muscles weakness.

ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom Even though Xilu poison was not deadly, but it was still in the category of dangerous poisons, especially when they were about to attack the Red Ogre village.

'Ace, this is the price for getting in my way of taking back Layla.'

He did not try to talk with Layla because Layla was riding a horse next to Scarlett and other important figures.

[Three divine beings tell you to pay attention to Sean.]

Ace glanced at Sean after reading the notification. He returned his attention to Captain Noah after looking at Sean for a second.

At this moment, Henry and Edward also stared at Ace. But unlike Sean, they did not look at him intently.

Henry and Edward exchanged a glance with each other before finally nodding their heads.

Henry shifted his gaze from his son to Scarlett. "Scarlett, how about we take a rest now?"

"Isn't that a waste of our time?" of course, Scarlett did not know it was part of Henry's plan.

"Scarlett, look at our subordinates! They have been walking for five hours without a rest. I'm sure they are tired." Henry responded instantly. "We don't feel tired because we are riding horses. However, they are following us on foot."

He then continued, "Some of them are even carrying heavy bags. Don't you feel sorry for them?"

Scarlett turned her head to look at their subordinates.

'They do look tired.'

Even though they were awakeners, but they were still human beings.

They needed to rest and drink. This was the reason why they were delighted after hearing Henry's words.

Scarlett looked at Lexie, Aron, Melissa and Alvaro. "What do you think?"

"I agreed with mister Henry's suggestion." Lexie also did not know it was part of Henry's plan. "It's also lunch time, so let's take a break and eat first because it's a bad idea to fight monsters on an empty stomach."

"We agreed with Henry's suggestion too." Melissa and her husband answered in unison.

Aron did not say anything, but he nodded his head, giving her a sign that he also agreed with Henry's suggestion.

Because Everyone agreed with Henry's suggestion, Scarlett could not refuse. "Alright. We will rest when we reach an open field."

"Good!" Henry's lips curled up into a grin.

Edward and Sean nodded their heads when Henry stared at them.

'Get ready. We will carry out our plan soon.'

Even though Henry did not say anything and only stared at them, they could understand it.

Shortly after that, they reached an open field. They immediately ordered some of their subordinates to cook lunch.

Like before, Ace was still with Captain Noah.

'I have to monitor their movements.'

With that idea in mind, he rose to his feet and headed to a quiet place.please visit

"Where are you going, Ace?" Captain Noah inquired.

"I want to pee. I will be right back." Ace lied to Captain Noah.

"Go back immediately." Captain Noah did not want Ace to be alone for a long time because they were in the forest.

"Alright." Ace responded.

When he was in a quiet place, he made three clones.

He changed his appearance first before using Ice Clone magic because he wanted them to pretend to be Scarlett's subordinates.

Scarlett brought two hundred subordinates, so they could pretend to be her subordinates.

"Go and monitor their movements." Ace ordered his clones to monitor Sean, Henry and Edward's movements.

His clones nodded their heads before heading toward Sean, Henry and Edward.

At this moment, Henry was talking with Sean behind a tree. They talked in a quiet place because they did not want someone to know about their plan.

"I will change your appearance now, but it will only last forty minutes, so make sure to deliver the food to Ace before it." Henry could change Sean's appearance using magic.

"Understood." Sean responded.

"Done!" Henry uttered, "Now go and do your task."

"Alright." After saying that, Sean left.

Henry smirked as he saw Sean's back.

'You are indeed a good dog.'

He intended to make Sean a scapegoat if they were caught later.

'I will return now.'

He walked toward Scarlett and the others.

Henry did not know that two of Ace's clones were in that place. Ace's clones nodded their heads before following Sean and Henry.

"It's him." Ace's clone did not try to stop Sean because he had a good idea.

After the food was ready, Sean placed two meals on a wooden tray. These two meals were for Ace and captain Noah.

'Haha.'

He laughed as he put Xilu poison in one of the meals.

'This is the price for ruining my relationship with Layla.'

He only put poison in one of the foods because one of the meals was for Captain Noah.

"I see." Ace's clone immediately walked toward the red-haired man, one of Scarlett's subordinates. "Can you help us give the food to everyone?"

"Sure." The red-haired man agreed immediately.

Then they headed toward Sean.

Ace's clone told the red-haired man to say something to Sean. When they were talking, he exchanged poisoned food for an ordinary meal.

"I will give the food to the people first." Sean didn't know that the food had been swapped.

Ace's clone smirked as he saw the poisoned food on his tray.

'I will give this meal to Edward.'

At first, he wanted to give the food to Henry, but he changed his mind because it was easier to give it to Edward.

When Sean saw Ace talking with captain Noah, his lips curled up into a grin.

'There they are!'

His expression became friendly when he was close to them.

"Here's some food and drink for you." After saying that, he gave the food and drinks to Ace and captain Noah.

"Thank you." Captain Noah said as he smiled.

"Then I will leave now." Even though Sean was smiling, but he laughed evilly in his head.

'Enjoy your meal, Ace.'

He immediately hid behind a tree not far from Ace.

Ace did not eat the food immediately because there were three people who disliked him in that place.

'System, analyze this food and drink. Is it poisonous or not?'

He said in his head.

[Ding! Analyzing is in process.]

After several seconds, his system finished analyzing the food and drink.

[Host, no poison has been detected in food and drink. That is safe.]

'My clone has done a good job.'

He was sure that his clones had done something.

Ace told his system to check captain Noah's food and drink too. When he found out that there was no poison in their food and drinks, he told captain Noah to eat it.

As Ace was enjoying the meal with captain Noah, Ace's clone gave the poisoned food to Edward. "This is your share."

"Un." Edward nodded his head.
