Binding System



When Mike was heading to the river, Bella stopped him. "What's wrong? Why do you look panicked like that?"

Instead of answering her question, he asked, "Did you hear a loud sound just now?"

"Yes. What's wrong with it?" she still did not get his words.

Sure, she heard a loud sound, but it was quite far from their camp, so they should ignore it because their priority was guarding their camp.

"Our protector went to the river to fetch water, and the loud sound earlier came from the river. That's why I want to go there to check it." He told her the reason why he wanted to go to the river.

"What?! Is protector fighting someone by the river?" even though she knew Ace was a powerful awakener, she was still worried about his safety.

"I don't know. I will check it now." after saying that, he rushed to the river. "Just wait here. Don't go anywhere and protect the camp."

Bella looked at Mike without saying a single word.

Actually, she also wanted to go to the river to check it, but she changed her mind because she had to protect their camp.

'I hope nothing bad happens to our protector.'

She prayed to God.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

The fight between Ace and the twins was so fierce.

Unlike usual, Ace did not have the upper hand in the fight this time.

Lala and Lily were powerful awakeners, and their stats were also high, so it was not easy to defeat them.

Actually, he fought well.

Despite being ganged up by two powerful awakeners, he could fight them on an equal footing.

If he were an ordinary awakener, he would have been dead by now because their teamwork was amazing.

He could fight them equally because he had a lot of fighting experience and had sparred with his father and grandfather many times.

'Why? Why can't we kill him yet? Why?'

Lala and Lily were unhappy because they still could not kill Ace.

Normally, they would have killed their target by now because their teamwork and combination attacks were amazing.

However, Ace was still standing.

He could still fight them.

He even could fight them on an equal footing.

This should not have happened because they were ganging up on him.

It was two versus one.

He should have been dead at their hands by now.

So why?

Why could he still fight them?

Sure, they knew he was a Rheanix, but it was two versus one, not one versus one.

Even if they still could not kill him, they should at least have the upper hand in the fight.

But no!

Every time their attacks landed on his body, they got attacked by him shortly after that.

It was as if the heavens were helping him. 

'Why? Is it because he is a Rheanix?'

Lily gritted her teeth because everything was out of their control.

When Lala saw Lily's expression, she uttered, "Lily, let's use our new combination attack."

Lily did not answer, but she nodded her head, giving a sign that she agreed with Lala's suggestion.

Lala jumped back and shot her arrow, "Deadly Shot!" 

"Dragon Thrust!" As soon as Lily thrust her spear forward, a dragon made of yellow energy shot out from the tip of her spear.

The dragon flew, circling the arrow.

Now the arrow became more powerful and deadlier than before.

Ace, who saw their combination attack, immediately swung his sword, sending a huge wave of energy.

Boom!

Thunderous sound reverberated in the entire area.

But because their attack was stronger, his attack was unable to stop it, causing their attack to keep flying toward him.

Ace did not panic.

He immediately raised his left hand forward.

'Earth Shield.'

A huge shield appeared before him, protecting him from their attack.

Boom!

Even though the earth shield shattered into pieces, but it could stop the twins' attack.

The power of their attack had been reduced significantly when it collided with his Moon Slice skill. 

This was the reason why his Earth Shield magic could stop their attack.

"Tch!" Lily was unhappy when Ace could stop their combination attack.

[All divine beings are going wild over the action-packed battle.]

All divine beings could not take their eyes off their fight.

Until now, everything was always under his control.

This was the first time he did not have the upper hand in the fight. Ace even got injured by the twins.

This was the reason why all divine beings watched their fight with interest. 

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Ace still fought the twins fiercely.

The impact of their fight destroyed several trees and stones around them.

Mike, who had just reached the river, immediately hid behind a tree.

He could not get closer to them because the impact of their fight could injure him. He knew it was a fight he could not get involved with.

'My guess is right. Protector Ace is fighting someone by the river.'

He watched the fight from afar.

'But who are they? Why are they fighting against protector Ace?' 

He had never seen Lily and Lala before, so he had no idea who they were.

'Protector is amazing. He even can still fight them equally even though they are ganging up on him.'

He immediately shook his head.

'No! This is not the time to praise him. I have to return to the camp and tell everyone about this. We have to help him.'

He knew he could not help Ace, so he decided to return to their camp.

At the same time, Lieutenant Valeria and her group were on their way to the camp. They returned earlier because they had killed many magical beasts.

"I'm really tired."

"I want to take a bath immediately. My body is full of sweat."

"We killed more magical beasts today. I'm so happy."

They chatted as they walked to their camp.

"Hey, isn't that Mike?"

"Ah, you are right. But why is he running with such a worried face?"

"Is he being chased by the magical beast?" 

They stopped their footsteps when they caught sight of Mike.

Mike was happy when he saw Lieutenant Valeria. 

He immediately ran toward her before finally stopping in front of her. "Lieutenant Valeria, please help protector Ace. He is fighting two people right now."

"Fighting two people?" Lieutenant Valeria was shocked, but she could still control her emotion.

"He is fighting them by the river." Mike responded. "Please help him immediately. His opponents are strong."

"You all go to the camp now. Treat the injured immediately." After saying that, Lieutenant Valeria returned her attention to Mike. "Lead the way."

"Follow me." Mike uttered.

As they ran to the river, she told him to hide immediately after they reached their destination because he was too weak to join the fight.

Mike nodded his head.

Shortly after that, they reached their destination, but they did not see Ace. They only saw traces of a fierce battle.

"They were here earlier." Mike uttered.

They immediately skimmed their surroundings.

When they were looking for him, they heard a loud sound from their right side.

They wasted no time and ran toward the source of the sound because they suspected it was the sound of Ace's fight against his enemy.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Ace was currently fighting the twins near the altar. 

Like before, he could still fight them equally. Even though he was wounded, the twins were also injured. 

"Die!" Lily ran before finally jumping toward him.

When she was close to him, she raised her sword high, ready to attack him.

But before she could attack him, a wave of energy came from her right side. She changed her mind and placed her sword horizontally before her, blocking the attack.

"Uakkk…" Lily coughed up blood and was thrown five meters.

"Lily!" Lala rushed toward Lily to help her.

At the same time, a gorgeous lady wearing black leather armor appeared in front of Ace. 

That pretty lady was none other than the most beautiful woman in the army, Lieutenant Valeria. 

"Are you alright, Ace?" Lieutenant Valeria inquired.

Ace was shocked when she saw her.

"I'm fine." It took him three seconds before he could answer her question.

Mike, who was hiding behind a tree, let out a sigh of relief. "Thank god."

He was glad they still managed to save Ace.

Ace could fight the twins on an equal footing, so he believed Ace could win the fight because Lieutenant Valeria was helping him.

"Who are they? Why did they attack you?" Lieutenant Valeria asked curiously.

"I don't know. They attacked me right after they saw me." Ace gave an honest answer. 

"Don't tell me. Someone hired them to kill you?" Lieutenant Valeria uttered.

"I also suspected so." Ace also suspected that someone had hired Lala and Lily to kill him.

He suspected Henry was the one who hired them, but he did not have solid evidence. That was why he wanted to defeat them first before interrogating them.

Lala and Lily were unhappy when they saw Lieutenant Valeria.

It was already difficult to kill Ace, and now, Lieutenant Valeria would help him fight them.

"Why is everything out of our control today?" Lily clenched her fist.

"What should we do now? Should we back off first?" Lala inquired.

"Let's try fighting them first. If there is no hope of killing him, we will retreat." Lily responded. 

"Alright." Lala nodded her head.

Because the twins still wanted to fight, Ace and Lieutenant Valeria infused their energy into their weapons, causing their weapons to gleam.

Like Ace, Lily did the same thing.

She also infused her energy into her sword.

But when they were about to attack each other, something unexpected happened.
