Binding System

Flocks of birds flew in the orange sky, and a gentle breeze swayed the grass.

When everyone was chatting with their families and friends, two people soaked in the wooden tub.

The mature lady was sitting between the young man's legs with her back facing him, while the young man was hugging the mature lady from behind.

Even though they could not see each other's faces, they were still delighted because they could soak together.

These two people were none other than Ace and his MILF lover, Scarlett.

Previously, Ace was about to take a bath alone, but Scarlett suddenly entered his room. This was the reason why they took a shower together.

"Ace, were you the one who killed Edward?" Scarlett asked curiously.

Instead of answering her question, he asked, "Why are you asking that question?"

"Because I know you have a bad relationship with Edward and his father." She gave an honest answer. "So, were you the one who killed him?"

"No." Ace responded immediately.

"Ace, I'm your lover and will always support you, so you don't need to hide it. Just tell me the truth." Scarlett did not believe his words.

"I was not the one who killed him." after saying that, Ace explained everything in detail.

He said he sent ten deadly slashes when Edward was behind Durg. Because Durg avoided his attacks, his attack hit Edward.

Edward was still alive after getting hit by his deadly slashes, but he was heavily injured and could not move his body.

This was the reason why Edward died because many 2-star ogres and goblins attacked him after that.

"Hehe." Scarlett giggled after hearing his words. "In other words, you are the mastermind of his death, right?"

"Why are you saying something like that, lady?" he did not admit it, but he also did not deny it.

"I'm sure you sent these slashes because you knew he was behind Durg. Admit it, Ace. I'm correct, right?" Scarlett believed that was the reason why Ace used his Moon Slice skill.

"My lover is so smart!" Ace finally admitted it. "Because you are a clever lady, I will reward you."

He turned her head to the right before finally giving her a peck on the lips. He did not kiss her passionately because it was hard to do that in that position.

"Then you have to be careful of Henry from today onwards." Scarlett believed Henry would investigate the death of his son.

"I don't think I will lose to him." Ace said confidently.

"Even though I also think you are stronger than him, but you are alone while he has many subordinates." Scarlett explained the reason why she told him to be careful of Henry.

"Don't worry. I won't die until I become the Ruler." Of course, he would be careful of Henry because anything could happen in this world, including getting killed by someone weaker than him.

"What?! You still want to be the Ruler?" she thought he wanted to be the Ruler because he wanted to protect her from bad people.

"Of course! That is the reason why I train hard every single day." Even though he was in a new world, he did not forget his dream because he always wanted to be like his grandpa.

"Then I hope you can achieve your dream in the future." She uttered. "And don't forget that I will always support you no matter what."

"Thank you, my beautiful lover." He responded.

They talked about many things as they soaked together. After soaking for more than twenty minutes, they headed to their room to put on clothes.

Ace took this chance to check the cards he got from his system.

'I got amazing cards!'

An unexpected happiness consumed him when he was checking the cards.

Ace got two cards because he completed all the quests.

The first card was a communication token card.

This communication token was not an ordinary communication tool because they could still communicate no matter how far apart they were.

However, this communication tool had one big drawback.

No one could use this communication token except the owner.

In other words, this communication tool would become useless if the owner died.

The second card was called Sweet Dream card.

Sweet Dream card was a skill card at Unique Rank. This skill was not an active skill but a passive one.

This skill would activate automatically once Ace fell asleep.

His stamina, strength, agility, and mana would recover at incredible speed when he was sleeping.

Even if Ace was dead tired, he would feel refreshed and full of stamina after waking up like he was sleeping on a soft cloud.

However, this was not the best part of this skill. The best part about this skill was that it also healed his body at an incredible speed.

His recovery speed would be thirty times faster than normal. If he only had minor injuries, he would fully recover after waking up.

Not only that, but it also removed the scars on his body. This skill was so amazing, to the point anyone would kill to get this skill.

'Today is really my lucky day!'

He could not express his happiness in words.

"Thank you, Goddess of War for the amazing card!" he decided to thank the Goddess of War because she gave him Sweet Dream card.

[Goddess of War nods her head.]

'System, activate Communication Card.'

He wanted to give the communication tool to Scarlett so that they could still talk no matter where they were.

[Ding! Communication Card Activated.]

The Communication Card gleamed before finally, two communication tokens appeared and floated before him.

The communication tokens were as big as a normal smartphone. It also had a beautiful craft with a blue crystal in the middle of the token.

'I will give one of this communication tools to Scarlett now.'

With that idea in mind, he turned around.

However, he stopped his footsteps immediately because he realized that he was still naked.

'Luckily, I noticed it.'

There were several maids in Scarlett's house, so he could not walk around the house naked.

'Let me put on clothes first.'

When he was about to put on clothes, Scarlett suddenly entered his room.

"Ace!" Scarlett stepped into his room as if it was hers.

The corner of his lips twitched.

'This lady never listens to me!'

He had told Scarlett several times to knock on the door first before entering his room, but she never listened to him.

Ace suddenly remembered the communication tool. "Scarlett, take this."

When she saw the communication tool in her hands, she inquired, "What is it?"

"It's a communication token. We can still communicate with this tool no matter how far apart we are." Ace began explaining everything to her.

He told her that she only needed to infuse her energy into the communication token if she wanted to use it.

And the use of the blue crystal in the middle of the token was as an incoming call sign. The blue crystal would gleam if he called her.

"It's a good communication tool!" Scarlett stated after hearing everything.

"Not only that, but we can video call too." Ace was thrilled when his system told him about this feature.

"Video call?" Scarlett tilted her head to the left because she did not understand his words.

"Video call is…." Ace began explaining what a video call was.

"What?! We can see each other through this communication device even though we are far away from each other?" Scarlett said in surprise.

"Yes." He nodded his head. "You only need to press the blue crystal for three seconds and it will turn the normal call into a video call."

"Really? I want to try it." After saying that, Scarlett headed to her room.

Ace smiled and shook his head when he saw her behavior.

'Well, it's normal.'

He suddenly remembered the time when he used a video call for the first time.

After stepping into her room, Scarlett infused her energy and pressed the blue crystal for three seconds.

"How is it?" Ace asked after picking up the phone.

"I can see you." Scarlett responded.

A blue  screen appeared above the communication tool and she could see him through that screen.

After hanging up the phone, she headed to his room again. Like before, she entered his room without knocking on the door.

"Ace, where did you get this communication tool?" she asked curiously.

"Secret!" because he could not reveal the truth, he winked his right eye.

She did not ask more questions because he did not want to reveal the truth. "By the way, why are you still naked?"

"I was about to wear clothes earlier." After saying that, he put on clothes.

"Hehe." Scarlett giggled.

Shortly after he wore clothes, one of the maids told them that Layla was waiting on the terrace.

Scarlett and Ace immediately headed to the terrace to see Layla.

The trio then headed to the backyard to chat.

"Hehe." They laughed happily.

Scarlett and the others were currently sitting on the mat. There were a few snacks and drinks in front of them.

"Ace, you are quite famous now." Layla stated. "Now many people know that you are no longer weak."

"What are you going to do next, Ace?" Scarlett asked curiously.

"Maybe I will open a restaurant." Ace wanted to do business because he needed money to get stronger.

"What?! Restaurant?" Layla said in surprise.

"Yes. A restaurant." He nodded. "Because I need money to get stronger."

"I thought you would keep robing your enemy's money." Layla joked around.

"I think so too." Scarlett added.

The corner of his lips twitched.

'Bad ladies!'
