Binding System

"Ace, you looked so cool when you defeated them earlier."

"That's right. You looked so cool earlier, especially when you stood with your hands behind your back. You look like a hero!"

"I didn't expect you to be so strong, Ace."

"Haha. You even defeated them easily, as if you took candy from a kid."

"That's right. Easy-peasy. Haha."

"Haha."

Scarlett's subordinates still surrounded and praised him because he did something extraordinary when he fought Davion and Edward.

Like before, Ace could only smile when they praised him non-stop.

Did he like it?

Of course, he liked it!

This was what he wanted, so he was pleased when they praised him continuously.

He just did not express it because they did not give him a chance to say something. That was why he only smiled at them.

"Haha. That's right, Ace. You looked so cool earlier!" Captain Noah walked closer to Ace while laughing happily. "By the way, since when were you so strong like this? You even defeated Edward and Davion in one move. Did you hide your strength all this time?"

Before Ace could answer Captain Noah's questions, one of Scarlett's subordinates uttered, "Captain Noah, you should have guessed the answer to your questions from his overwhelming victory against Davion and Edward."

He then continued, "You saw his skill and power of his fists, right? I'm sure it takes many years to master that movement skill and have that powerful fist."

"Makes sense!"

"I agree with you. It's impossible to have that powerful fist and master that movement skill in just a month. At least, it takes a few years to achieve that."

"Does this mean Ace is strong all this time?"

"Ace, have you been training secretly in the past few years?"

"Ace, why did you hide your strength all this time?"

An unexpected misunderstanding arose because of the words of one of Scarlett's underlings.

Ace tried to explain everything to them, but they did not give him a chance to do it. As a result, he could only let the misunderstanding spread among themselves.

As Ace was feeling happy, Henry felt the opposite.

His eyes were bloodshot, and he clenched his fist hard. At this moment, Henry was breathless with anger.

Not only did his plan fail, but his son was also injured.

Many people even praised Ace continuously. This was the reason why he was about to explode with rage.

'Ace!'

His hatred toward Ace grew bigger when he saw Ace laughing happily.

Even though the flames of anger had consumed his body, Henry did not attack Ace immediately because Scarlett and the others were with them.

"You are so cruel, Ace!" He tried to make Ace look bad because he could not attack Ace directly.

Ace and Scarlett's subordinates stopped laughing and looked at Henry. Not only them but everyone also shifted their gaze to Henry.

"What do you mean by saying I'm so cruel?" Ace had guessed something like this would happen, so he was not surprised by Henry's words.

"We are going to attack the Red Ogre village, but you still injure my son and Davion. Isn't that cruel?" Henry brought up their mission in their conversation so that he could blame Ace.

"Haha. It's funny."

"Oh, my god! He is so funny!"

"Did you hear what he just said? Haha."

"Henry, why are you blaming Ace for their injuries? It's funny. Haha."

pαndα-noνɐ1,сoМ "Maybe it's because he can't stand humiliation."

"Maybe. Haha."

One by one, Scarlett's subordinates made fun of Henry because he blamed Ace for his son's injuries.

"Funny!" Ace stated. "I did not use a weapon like them and only attacked them once. They are injured and unconscious because they are simply too weak."

"That's right. They are simply too weak."

"Yes. They are too weak for Ace."

"Un, un. Too weak!"

Scarlett's subordinates repeated his words.

Ace then continued his words. "Don't tell me. You want me to get beaten up by them without fighting back?! Is that what you want?"

Henry was unhappy when Ace cornered him with his words. "But you should not injure them. You sho-"

Before Henry had finished his words, Scarlett disturbed him. "Henry, stop it!"

She could not stay silent when Henry tried to make Ace look like a bad person because Ace was not wrong in this matter.

Henry shifted his gaze from Ace to Scarlett. "Scarlett, you should not defend him this time because what he did to my son and Davion is wrong."

"They were the ones who challenged Ace to a duel earlier. If you don't want them to get hurt, why didn't you stop them earlier?" of course, Scarlett would defend Ace. "Stop this and just treat them quickly!"

Henry gritted his teeth in annoyance.

He could not do anything now because Scarlett had defended Ace.please visit pαпᵈα-:)ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.co)m

Everything would be a mess if he kept trying to blame Ace because everyone knew what had happened earlier.

"Tch!" he ordered his subordinates to bring her son and Davion to his tent.

"Lieutenant Valeria, tell Ace to meet me at my tent now." after saying that, Scarlett headed to her tent.

"Understood." Lieutenant Valeria immediately walked toward Ace.

Scarlett was currently in her tent. Her tent was quite big and guarded by two awakeners. No one could see her because there was no room for people to peek at her.

'How dare he try to shift the blame to Ace!'

Scarlett, who was sitting on a wooden chair, wore an annoyed face.

She was unhappy when she remembered how Henry tried to make Ace look like a bad person.

If she was not the lord of Nightshire city, she would have slapped Henry's face earlier.

As Scarlett was remembering Henry's actions, Ace entered her tent. "Scarlett, why did you call me?"

Her annoyed face immediately turned into a smile when she saw his handsome face. "Sit first."

Ace sat on the wooden chair in front of her. "So, what is it?"

"Congratulation, Ace. Now many people know that you are not a weak young man." she called him to her tent because she wanted to congratulate him.

No!

Actually, the real reason was that she wanted to be alone with him. She could not lovey-dovey with him if they were in front of her people, so she called him to her tent.

"Thank you." Ace smiled softly before finally tapping his thighs. "Come here and sit on my lap."

Scarlett wasted no time and sat on his lap.

This was what she wanted, so she agreed to sit on his lap. "So, what is my reward?"

"Why are you asking for a reward?" he asked curiously.

"You have a chance to show them that you are not weak anymore because I let you participate in this monster subjugation, so I want a reward now." She told him the reason why she wanted a reward.

"Ah?" what she said was right, so he decided to reward her.

For this reason, he grabbed her slender waist and made her sit facing him. Without waiting for another second, he cupped her pretty face and kissed her tender lips.

"There! I have given you a reward!" he said after stopping the kiss.

"I want more, Ace." She was still not satisfied, so she wanted another kiss.

Ace kissed her again after hearing her words.

However, what he did this time was different. If previously he only pressed his lips against hers, this time, he tried to put his tongue into her mouth after their lips met.

Of course, Scarlett opened her mouth immediately because this was what she wanted.

Yes, she wanted a deep kiss!

Like usual, Ace used his tongue skillfully after she opened her mouth.

Due to how skilled he was at deep kissing, Scarlett's face turned red shortly after that.

Of course, she did not stop the kiss and kept enjoying his kisses because it felt good.

Yes, Ace's kiss felt great!

This was the reason why she liked it whenever he kissed her.

"Huft…Huft…Huft…" she stopped the kiss when she was out of breath. "Ace, you are so amazing at deep kissing."

"Scarlett, do you want to feel something better?" Ace inquired.

Instead of answering his question, she asked curiously, "What is it?"

"Follow me." Ace dragged her somewhere.

At the same time, Henry was looking at his son. Edward was still unconscious because Ace's punch was too strong for him.

"How is his condition?" he asked.

The healing mage responded, "He is fine. He will regain consciousness in an hour."

Henry let out a sigh of relief.

Of course, he was still angry at Ace because Ace had injured his son.

Henry looked at Liam and uttered, "Call Sean now."

"Understood, lord." Liam responded.

Shortly after that, Sean entered Henry's tent. "What is it?"

"Are you sure Ace has eaten the poisoned food?" even though Henry's son had told him about this, but he wanted to hear it directly from Sean's mouth.

"Yes. I saw him eating it with my own eyes." Sean responded.

Henry sat on the wooden chair and uttered, "I want you to keep watching him later. You don't need to do anything. Just keep watching him."

"Alright." Sean agreed immediately. "But I want you to give me four people to protect and support me."

"Four people? Sure! I will give you four people later. You can order them around during this mission." Henry brought fifty subordinates earlier, so giving four people to Sean was not a big deal for him.

"Good!" Sean smiled happily. "I will try to kill him if the opportunity arises."

"I hope you will get a good opportunity later." Henry responded.
