Binding System

Chapter 287 I’m Too Lazy to Hunt

As Colonel Louie and the citizens were eating, Nova returned to his place and tried to sleep again.

'It's finally quiet now.'

Shortly after he shut his eyes, a delicious aroma of food entered his nose.

His resting place was not far from where the residents were eating, so the delicious aroma of the food reached him.

'Hmm? This delicious aroma…'

He opened his eyes and turned his head toward the source of the food aroma.

'Isn't that the area where the humans cut down the trees?'

He tried to sleep again.

However, the temptation of the delicious aroma of food was too great to ignore, causing him to open his eyes again.

'This makes me hungry.'

As he tried to sleep again, his stomach was growling.

'Should I go there again and ask them for food?'

It had been a long time since the last time he ate human food, so he suddenly wanted to try it again.

'No.'

He shook his head.

'I'm a 4-star magical beast, so I have to maintain my good image. Asking humans for food would tarnish my image and disgrace the name of my ancestors.'

Nova did not want to ruin his image.

'I will just sleep.'

With that idea in mind, he closed his eyes again.

City Guard Headquarters, Scarlett's Office.

Aurelia was currently sitting on a couch with Evelyn, Ace, and Scarlett. The group of four was talking about Aurelia's unknown disease and the rainbow pool.

Aurelia thanked Scarlett for allowing her to soak in the rainbow pool. She promised not to tell a single soul about the rainbow pool.

Not only that, but she also said she would help Nightshire City if they needed help.

Scarlett still allowed her to soak in the magical pool despite being an outsider, so Scarlett was a good person in her eyes.

And her disciple also fell in love with Ace.

That was why she wanted to build a good relationship with them because they were good people.

As they were talking seriously, Aurelia's disease recurred again.

Her body felt hot, and she cried out in pain.

Scarlett and the others wasted no time and took her to the rainbow pool. As soon as Aurelia soaked in the rainbow pool, her condition returned to normal immediately.

Her body no longer felt hot, and her face relaxed.

Evelyn felt relieved when her master no longer felt like she was burning because usually, it took more than an hour for her master's condition to return to normal.

"Thank god her condition has returned to normal." Scarlett spoke as she checked Aurelia's condition.

"Master, how are you feeling?" Evelyn inquired.

"I'm fine." Aurelia responded. "This pool is indeed a magical pool. It can make the pain and heat in my body disappear instantly."

"Please keep soaking in this pool for now." Scarlett uttered.

"Thank you, city mistress," Aurelia said.

Scarlett smiled softly as she nodded her head.

As Ace was looking at Aurelia, he suddenly felt a little awkward.

Even though Aurelia was not naked, but she only wore a white robe without a bra, so he could see her breasts clearly because her robe was wet and stuck to her body.

'This is awkward.'

He stopped looking at Aurelia's body and turned around.

When Scarlett noticed Aurelia's wet robes, she instantly looked at Ace. Her lips curled up into a smile when she found out that Ace was facing the other side on purpose.

Even though he was a pervert when they were alone, but he could control himself well when he was with other women.

She believed other men would keep looking at Aurelia's body if they were in his shoes because Aurelia was a gorgeous lady.

"Ace, leave her to us." Scarlett uttered, "Can you go to the forest and help Colonel Louie protect the citizens?"

"Alright." Ace agreed instantly. "Call me if you need something."

"Un." Scarlett nodded her head.

"Our city will be bigger than before later. Do you think we will be famous in the future?"

"Of course!"

"I think so too."

"I'm sure many travelers will come to our city later."

"I'm sure our lives will be more prosperous later."

"Un, un."

The citizens talked as they ate their food.

They were thrilled because they almost finished rebuilding their city.

"Hmm? Ace?" the red-haired man caught sight of Ace.

"Ace, come here." The green-haired man shouted, "Have lunch with us."

"Yes, Ace. Let's eat together."

"Today's menu is really delicious, Ace."

"That's right. I'm sure you will like it."

They invited him to eat with them because Ace was their fellow citizen.

After Ace sat on a long log, the blue-haired man gave him food.

Ace took the food and began eating it. "Did magical beast attack you guys earlier?"

The citizens instantly remembered Nova.

"There was a magical beast earlier."

"Ah, I suddenly remember that beast."

"That magical wolf is huge. I think that magical wolf is about three or four meters tall."

"But that magical beast did not attack us earlier."

"Yes. He only said a few words before finally leaving."

"I was shocked earlier, Ace. I thought he would kill us earlier."

"Yes. But we were wrong because he left shortly after that."

They told him about Nova.

They said they had never met a magical beast like Nova before because Nova did not act like a normal magical beast.

"What? That magical beast did not attack you?" Ace found it hard to believe because, usually, magical beasts hated humans and saw them as food.

"They are not lying, Ace." Colonel Louie spoke abruptly. "He said he was sleepy and wanted to sleep, so he only told us to be quiet before finally leaving."

He then continued, "He even did not tell us to stop cutting down the trees. It was as if he did not care about this forest at all."

"Really?" Ace uttered.

"I know it's hard to believe, but it's the truth." Colonel Louie could understand Ace's feelings because he felt the same earlier.

"Where did he go? I will check it later." Ace was still worried about the safety of the citizens.

He was afraid that Nova would change his mind and attack the citizens later.

Nova was a magical beast, so they could not let their guard down.

"He went to the west earlier." The green-haired man said as he pointed his right index finger to the west area.

"I will check it after eating." Ace uttered.

As Ace was chatting with the citizens, Nova was sitting on the ground.

He tried to sleep but failed because he could not resist the temptation of the delicious aroma of food that entered his nose.

"I'm hungry." He said as he rubbed his stomach.

'Should I look for food now?'

He suddenly wanted to hunt other magical beasts because he was hungry.

'But I'm too lazy to hunt now.'

He suddenly missed the king status he had before because he could order his subordinates to find food for him.

As Nova was rubbing his empty stomach, Ace suddenly appeared in front of him.

Nova was startled when he saw Ace.

Like Nova, Ace was also shocked when he saw Nova.

"You?" Ace and Nova said at the same time.
