Chapter 134 Practice Martial Arts

"What?! Ace kissed you in front of Sean?!" Scarlett said in surprise.

Sure, Ace told her that he met Layla and Sean yesterday, but he did not say anything related to a kiss.

"Maybe because he was angry at Sean for mocking and underestimating him. That was why he decided to kiss me in front of Sean." Layla believed it was because Sean annoyed Ace. "And his method worked because Sean coughed up blood when he saw Ace kissing me."

Even though Scarlett was Ace's lover, Layla felt neither shame nor fear when she revealed the truth because Scarlett already knew they had kissed before.

"So, are you really going to become his sugar baby now?" Scarlett asked curiously.

"Who knows?" Layla responded immediately. "But Ace treats me well, so maybe, I will really become his sugar baby in the future."

"If we become his wives later, I will be his first wife. Period." With his talent and handsome face, Scarlett knew that Ace would have more than one girlfriend or wife in the future.

He even already had a special relationship with Evelyn. That was why she was not surprised by what was happening.

"Fine." Layla agreed instantly.

As Layla was talking with Scarlett, Ace fought his clones in the practice ring.

Like yesterday, they fought without using magic or skill because he did not want to destroy the backyard.

[God of Wine and Ecstasy inquires, isn't it boring to practice with your clones?"

[God of Wind utters, why don't you find a gang and destroy it? I'm sure it's much better than fighting your clones.]

[Several divine beings agree with God of Wind's words.]

Ace ignored them and kept fighting his clones. He even behaved as if he did not see the notifications.

[God of Wind say, someone, give him a quest. I'm sure he will accept it immediately if he gets a quest, especially if the reward is good. It's boring to see him practice with his clones.]

The chatter erupted.

They pointed at each other because none of them wanted to give Ace a quest.

They only gave him a quest when he was in an interesting situation. That was why none of them wanted to give him a quest.

[God of Lust utters, because none of you want to give him a quest, then let me give him one.]

[God of Wind shouts, no! You don't need to give him a quest.]

[God of Mountain adds, that's right. You don't need to give him a quest.]

They believed God of Lust would give him a perverted quest. That was why they stopped him from giving Ace a quest.

[God of Lust laughs loudly.]

Time went by quickly, and without realizing it, twenty minutes had passed.

Like before, Ace still fought his clones. As he was fighting against his clones, a sexy lady suddenly jumped at him, intending to kick his back.

At first, Ace wanted to attack that sexy lady with his magic, but he changed his mind when he knew who she was.

"Lady, attacking someone out of the blue is disgraceful action, you know?" he moved to the left to avoid the kick.

Layla immediately threw out her right fist at him after she failed to kick him. "I only want to help you practice martial arts, so it's not disgraceful action."

"You are making an excuse, huh?" he did not attack her and only dodged or blocked her attacks.

"It's not an excuse. I'm telling the truth." she kept attacking Ace.

She threw out her kick and fist at Ace continuously.

Even though Layla attacked him non-stop and from all directions, Ace could avoid and block all of her attacks.

'She keeps attacking me, huh?'

Because Layla kept attacking him, he decided to tease her.

When Layla threw out her right fist, Ace caught it and uttered, "This beautiful hand should not be used to attack someone but to cook something delicious."

A tiny smile appeared on her face when Ace kissed her right hand.

'He really has become a bad young man.'

She wanted to punish him for kissing her right hand, so she threw a high kick.

Like before, Ace could block her attack easily.

He grabbed her right leg before finally speaking, "You have a beautiful long leg, lady."

"It seems like you have become a pervert now." Layla did not stop attacking him.

She kicked and punched continuously.

Like before, Ace could block her attacks easily. Every time he caught her fist or kick, he would tease her.

This was the reason why Layla often smiled during their spar.

"You have taken advantage of me many times, so I have to punish you now." Layla channeled her energy to her right arm.

The corner of his lips twitched.

'It seems like I teased her too much.'

Of course, he still acted calmly.

He even put his hands behind his back as if he knew that Layla would not hurt him.

"Hehe. Ace, accept your punishment." Layla giggled before finally running toward him.

However, something unexpected happened before she could hit Ace.

She slipped!

There was water in several parts of the practice ring because Ace's clones had melted into the water earlier.

This was the reason why she slipped when she was about to attack him. "Kya!"

Even though Layla was in her early thirties, she was still a woman. This was the reason why she let out a cute voice when she slipped.

"Layla!" Ace used his Lightning Move skill to save her.

Even though he managed to catch her, but he lost his balance, causing them to fall onto the cement.

"Hehe. Well done, Ace." She did not feel any pain because she fell on top of him.

Ace smiled softly after letting out a sigh of relief. "Can you get up now?"

Instead of getting up, Layla inquired, "Do you want a reward?"

"Reward? Why do you suddenly want to give me a reward?" he asked curiously.

"Because you have defeated me and saved me from falling to the cement." She told him the reason why she suddenly wanted to reward him.

"Sure. What is it?" of course, he accepted it immediately upon hearing her words.

"This is the reward." After saying that, Layla kissed him.

Ace widened his eyes in surprise.

He was stunned when she suddenly kissed him.

But what surprised him most was that she suddenly tried to kiss him passionately.

'Tongue?'

Of course, Ace welcomed the kiss instantly.

He was a healthy young man, so of course, he would welcome it immediately if a lady like Layla wanted to kiss him passionately.

Only a fool would reject a kiss from a lady like her. Ace was not a fool, so he welcomed the kiss.

'I didn't expect the reward to be a kiss.'

Ace wrapped his arms around her slender waist as he enjoyed the kiss.

'But I like this kind of reward.'

If previously they fought with their fists, now they fought using their tongues.

----

Time went by quickly, and without realizing it, four days had passed since Ace and Layla had a deep kiss in the practice ring.

During these four days, Sean met Layla several times. He begged her to get back with him because he could not live without her.

However, Layla did not change her mind because she no longer loved him. For this reason, Sean's hatred toward Ace grew bigger.

Yes, he blamed Ace for everything because he believed Ace was the reason why Layla did not want to get back with him.

Even though he hated Ace to the bone, he never attacked Ace or tried to cause trouble for him.

Ace could defeat him with a single slap a few days ago, so he was not sure he could defeat Ace in a fight.

Of course, he would kill Ace if the opportunity arose. He did not do anything to Ace until now because he was waiting for the opportunity.

Scarlett's House, Her Office.

"Hmm? So, you saw the newly built Red Ogre village in the western region?" Scarlett uttered.

Scarlett and lieutenant Valeria were currently sitting on the couch. Even though she was shocked, she did not show it on her face.

"Yes." Valeria, who was sitting in front of Scarlett, responded, "That village is filled with Red Goblins and Ogres."

"How many monsters in total?" Scarlett asked curiously.

"About 200 monsters." Valeria responded.

"200? What about the strongest monsters? How strong are they?" Scarlett threw another question at Valeria.

"I'm not sure about this, but I think there are seven Red Ogre at 3-star. The rest are at 1-star or 2-star." Valeria could only lurk from afar, so she was not sure about this.

"Seven Red Ogre at 3-star?" Scarlett spoke and paused for a second before she continued, "Lieutenant Valeria, you go to the Rivas family, Olson family, Howard family, and Ruiz family now. Tell them that I want them to meet me at the conference building tomorrow at 09:00 am."

Even though she was sure that she and her subordinates could kill these monsters, she wanted these four families to help her because the heads of these four families were at the Master rank.

With their help, not only could she kill these monsters easier, but she could reduce the loss of life of her subordinates.

It was like killing two birds with one stone.

That was why she wanted these four families to help her no matter what.

Lieutenant Valeria rose to her feet and uttered, "Understood. I will go meet them now."

"Alight. You can go now." Scarlett responded immediately.

Lieutenant Valeria then left.
