Binding System



Two young people were inside a cave; an attractive young man and a gorgeous young lady.

The young man was lying on a stone platform, while the young lady was on top of the young man.

If one saw them, that person would think these two young people were doing adult things in a cave, but that was not the truth.

They were not doing adult things in a cave!

Sure, their lips pressed together, but they did not intend to kiss in a cave.

There was a reason for this.

And the reason was that they fell onto the stone platform a few seconds ago.

Yes, they ended up kissing after falling onto a stone platform.

Sure, it was hard to believe, and most people would think it was a lie, but that was the truth.

Everything happened because they fell onto the stone platform.

This was the reason why they widened their eyes in surprise because they did not expect something like that to happen.

'This is…'

At this moment, Ace and Lieutenant Valeria looked into each other in the eyes.

Even though it had been ten seconds since they fell onto the stone platform, they remained in their positions.

No, they were not enjoying the kiss!

They remained in their positions because they were still in a state of shock.

Something unbelievable was happening to them, so they were stunned.

When Lieutenant Valeria came to her senses, she immediately moved her head away, separating her lips from his.

However, her words got stuck in her throat when she wanted to say something to him.

'Why can't the words come out of my mouth? What's wrong with me?' 

Actually, she knew the reason why her words got stuck in her throat.

However, she refused to believe that was the reason why she could not say a single word to the young man under her.

After all, she was no longer a teenager.

She was an adult.

Something like this should not leave her speechless.

She should be able to talk normally.

She should be able to act normally, and she should not get nervous so easily.

However, the reality was different from expectation.

Of course, no one could blame her because she was only a human being.

Sometimes, she could not control her mind, emotion, actions or body. Every human being was the same, including her.

That was why her actions were acceptable because most women would react the same if they were in her shoes.

'What should I say now? Should I pretend like nothing happened? Should I just act normally?' 

Countless questions appeared in her mind.

She could not get up immediately because her thighs were injured. For this reason, she was still on top of him.

Ace, who was under her, smiled and inquired, "Are you alright, Lieutenant Valeria?"

Even though she tried her best to act normally, he knew what she had in mind. This was the reason why he did not talk about the kiss that had just happened.

"I'm fine." She could finally talk again after seeing his soft smile.

[God of Lust says, nice move, kid.]

He liked what had happened to Ace and Lieutenant Valeria because it could help Ace get her later.

He believed the accident would remain in her mind, and she would remember it whenever she was with Ace.

"Ace, can you help me up?" she hid her shyness because she was older than him.

Ace immediately helped her up.

Not only that, but he also checked her body again. 

He wanted to make sure that she was really fine.

"Let's wait here. My clones will bring fish later." He helped her sit on a stone platform.

Shortly after that, his two clones entered the cave with four big fish. Ace wasted no time and immediately grilled the fish.

Because her arms were injured, Ace helped her eat the grilled fish.

Lieutenant Valeria tried her best to act normally when he was feeding her. Ace had seen her in a bikini, so she should not blush over a small thing like that.

After eating, Ace inquired, "Lieutenant Valeria, do you have a tent?"

"No. My tent was left in Framingburns forest." She only had one tent, so there was no tent in her space ring. "What about you?"

"I also don't have tent." He gave an honest answer.

"Then we can sleep on this stone platform. As long as the bonfire doesn't die, we won't feel cold later." She was fine with sleeping on a stone platform.

Ace immediately ordered his two clones to find a lot of twigs. After that, they talked again.

Time went by quickly, and without realizing it, it was already 09:30 pm. 

Lieutenant Valeria was already sleepy, so she lay on the stone platform.

'So many things happened to me today, but I don't hate it.'

She slowly closed her eyes.

At the same time, Ace was talking with his system. 

He asked several questions to his system because he was curious about what he would get from the system in the future.

When he noticed Lieutenant Valeria lying on the stone platform with closed eyes, he retrieved a black robe from his space ring and put it on her body.

Even though it was only an ordinary robe, but it could help her warm her body. 

"Good night, Lieutenant Valeria." Ace said in a low voice.

Even though he said in a low voice, she could still hear it. This was the reason why a tiny smile appeared on her pretty face.

'He is a good young man.'

Ace's value in her eyes increased drastically.

----

The following morning, Ace woke up first. A soft smile spread across his face when he saw her sleeping face.

Ace did not wake her up. 

He only sat next to her before finally absorbing the energy in the beast core.

He had many beast cores in his space ring, so he decided to absorb it.

[Strength: lvl 56 -> lvl 57.]

His face broke into a smile when he saw the notification.

'Good! My strength is level 57 now.'

Even though his strength had only risen by one level, he could feel it.

'But the speed of my absorption is still slow.'

Even though he had many beast cores in his space ring, it was almost useless because his absorption speed was slow.

'Then isn't it better to level up my system?'

There were three reasons why he thought it was better to level up his system first.

First, he was already at Master rank.

Even though it could not be said he was undefeatable, he was already in the category of powerful awakeners, especially in the Luvrela region because the Luvrela region was the weakest among the four regions.

Second, the speed of his absorption was slow.

It was meaningless to have many beast cores in his space ring if it took him a long time to empty one beast core.

And last, there was a possibility of him getting a binding slot if he leveled up his system. 

If he got a binding slot, he could bind his system to a powerful female awakener and raise his talent.

If his talent got upgraded, his speed at absorbing energy would be faster. Even if he did not get a binding slot, there was a possibility of him getting a new feature.

In other words, there was no loss in leveling up his system!

'Yes. I should just level up my system.'

He had two powerful skills and one strong magic now.

He even had Lightning Move skill. 

He was sure he could escape from his enemy if he were in danger because he could travel a hundred meters in less than a second.

'Yes. I should not waver.'

After thinking for several minutes, he made up his mind.

He immediately retrieved thirty beast cores from his space ring. Most of these thirty beast cores were 2-star magical beast cores.

'System, absorb it.'

As his system was absorbing the beast cores, he kept saying binding slot in his mind as if he was chanting a magic spell.

After waiting for five minutes, a notification popped up.

[Ding! Please open the system display to see the updated system.]

Ace immediately checked it.

'Hmm?'

Ace touched his chin when he saw the Wealth Bar.

'System, explain it to me?'

He believed there was no such thing as a Wealth bar before, so he was curious about it.

[Host, you got a new feature. It's called Energy Replenishment.]

'Energy Replenishment?'

He still did not understand anything.

'Wealth and Energy Replenishment.'

He tried to find the correlation between wealth and energy replenishment.

'Wait!'

After thinking for several seconds, he thought of one thing.

'Do you mean I can replenish my energy with money? Is it as I guessed, system?' 

He threw a question at his system. 

[That's right, Host. But you have to put your money into the system first to use this feature. And the more you replenish your energy, the more you have to pay.]

He could hardly contain his happiness.

Even though he did not get a binding slot, he got a fantastic feature.

'Does that mean I will have unlimited energy as long as I have lots of money?'
