Binding System



'Should we discuss our strategy now?'

At this moment, Ace suddenly remembered something important.

'No! We should introduce ourselves first.'

He knew their stats and names because he had a system, so from his point of view, it was better to introduce themselves first.

"Let's introduce ourselves first." Ace uttered.

A red-haired man saluted and uttered, "My name is Zak. I'm a mage at Elite rank."

A blue-haired woman introduced herself. "My name is Lara. I'm a knight at Elite rank."

One by one, the members of group C introduced themselves.

They were Peter, Juan, Mike, Jenny, Nancy, Samuel, Jonas, Bella and Zak.

Lara, Peter, Juan, Mike, and Jenny were knights. Nancy, Samuel, and Jonas were archers, while Bella and Zak were mages.

After they finished introducing themselves, it was Ace's turn. "As you already know. I'm Ace. I'm a mage and a knight at Master rank."

He did not tell them he was an Aeris because it was not the right time to say it. He wanted to shock everyone in Nightshire City, so he would act as a Rheanix for now. 

But the moment he revealed everything, he would make sure they would not forget it for the rest of their lives.

Group C members were excited because their protector was a Rheanix, but they tried their best to hide the happiness within them.

"Alright. Let's discuss our strategy now." Ace did not want them to fight magical beasts without a strategy because a strategy was important in a group fight.

Actually, the strategy was simple.

The knights would attack the magical beasts at close range, while the mages would use their ranged magic.

As for the archers, they would support the team from the rear. 

However, one archer and one knight had to stay close to the mage because they would be defenseless when they cast magic spells. 

"Remember. I will only help you when you are in a life and death situation, so don't expect me to always save you." Ace told them to fight as if no one was protecting them because, with this, they would not act carelessly.

"Understood." They responded in unison. 

Scarlett looked at her subordinates and uttered, "Group B and group C will hunt magical beast in twenty minutes. Remember. You have to kill at least fifteen 2-star magical beasts before dawn."

She then continued, "If you fail, I will punish you after we return. Do you understand?"

"Understood." Her subordinates responded in unison.

Scarlett then shifted her gaze from her subordinates to Ace. "Ace, follow me."

Ace did what he was told.

'Why did she suddenly tell me to follow her? Does she have something to tell me?'

He still did not know why she told him to follow her.

'I see.'

He understood everything when they were in front of her tent.

"Hurry up and get into my tent." After saying that, she grabbed his right hand and dragged him into her tent.

Her tent was quite big, with a folding bed, blanket, chair, and table.

They would be in Framingburns forest for two to three weeks, so she brought a folding bed.

Scarlett, who was standing in front of him, uttered, "Ace, you have to be careful later."

"Don't worry. I can protect myself and I will protect your subordinates too." Ace was not surprised by her words because he had guessed it.

"Use the communication token if everything is out of control. I will go and help you right away." Even though Ace was already at Master rank, she was still worried about his safety because there were many powerful magical beasts in Framingburns forest.

"Alright." He nodded his head.

They continued talking.

She sat on his lap as they chatted because there was only one chair in her tent.

Of course, Ace was fine with it.

No!

He liked this position because he could lovey-dovey with her.

Time went by quickly, and without realizing it, they had been talking for fifteen minutes. Ace had to return to his group because they would hunt a magical beast in five minutes.

Scarlett slid from his lap and stared at him.

Ace rose to his feet and uttered, "I will go to my group now."

"Be careful, Ace." She uttered.

Ace nodded before walking out of her tent.

----

Nightshire City, Yalt District.

"Just where is he?" Lily asked in annoyance.

Lala and Lily were currently looking for Ace in the Yalt district. They had been looking for him for more than four hours, but their efforts were in vain.

They could not find him!

This was the reason why they wore annoyed faces because they wanted to finish their mission immediately.

"Don't tell me. He is out of this city now." Lala suddenly thought Ace was not in Nightshire City.

"Lala, I know a place to get information on his whereabouts." Lily dragged Lala somewhere after saying that.

"Where are we going?" Lala asked curiously.

"Just follow me." Lily responded.

After eavesdropping on the city guards' conversation, they finally knew where Ace was.

"No wonder we can't find him." Lala uttered, "Let's go to Framingburns forest now."

"Un." Lily nodded her head.

Then the duo traveled to Framingburns forest to kill Ace.

----

"You guys remember the strategy, right?" Ace spoke abruptly.

He did not want them to forget their strategy because it could save their lives.

"We remember it." Lara and the others said in unison.

Ace then turned his head to look at Mike. "Mike, you are the leader of the group, so you have to pay attention to magical beasts and your members. Don't forget what I said earlier."

"I won't let you down, protector." Mike would try his best not to make a single mistake later.

"Then I will leave now." After saying that, Ace flew to find a 2-star magical beast.

"Our protector is amazing! He can use magic without chanting." Bella was also a mage, but she was not a unique magician like Ace.

That was why she praised him when Ace used magic without chanting. 

"I hope I can become a unique magician in the future." Zak also wanted to become a unique magician because becoming a unique magician was the dream of all mages.

"Take out your weapons. We have to stay on guard from now on." Mike told them to always be ready to fight because they were in a dangerous place.

Lara and the others immediately took out their weapons from their space rings.

At the same time, Ace was floating in the sky.

'I will use clone to find 2-star magical beast.'

With that idea in mind, he made two clones.

"Find six 2-star magical beasts and lure it to them." Ace uttered.

Ace's clones nodded before looking for magical beasts.

Because his clones were looking for magical beasts, Ace returned to where Lara and the others were.

'Good. Stay in formation like that.'

He was currently standing on a tree branch, looking at Lara and the others.

Shortly after that, six magical beasts ran toward Mike and the others. Among these six magical beasts, three of them were black pandas, while the rest were pumas.

Ace's two clones stood on a tree branch next to him. 

Ace crossed his arms over his chest and mused. "Show me how good your teamwork is."
