Binding System

Chapter 60 Why Are You Giggling Like That, Young Lady?

?'Are we going to die today?'

That was the question that appeared in their minds.

At first, Zac and Lewis wanted to threaten Ace and Scarlett using their organization name, but they changed their minds when they remembered Ace was Aeris.

Yes, they still thought Ace and Scarlett belonged to a big organization or a family because Ace was Aeris.

There was no way big families and organizations would not try to recruit someone like Ace because, as Aeris, his future was limitless.

As long as he did not die or be given time to train, people like Ace were destined to stand at the top of the hierarchy.

That was why they accepted their fate because they believed their organization would not help them even if they saw Ace killing them.

Ace and Scarlett were shocked when Zac and Lewis dropped their weapons as if they would not try to run away.

"We won't beg for forgiveness or ask you to release us, but please give us a quick death." Zac knew Ace and Scarlett would not forgive them because they had tried to kill them earlier.

"Yes." Lewis added. "Please give us a quick death. You can take our belongings later, like our weapons and space rings."

"Be good people in your next life." After saying that, Ace shot his arrow at them.

Zac and Lewis shut their eyes slowly.

'It's a pity that I won't be able to eat Jingru noodles again.'

Their bodies slowly fell onto the ground after Ace shot their heads.

[Ding! The mission is complete.]

[Ding! Host has received a Windrun card (1). Host can check it in the inventory.]

Ace smiled happily when he saw the system notification.

'Good! I got a good card!'

He could run as fast as the wind for five minutes after activating the Windrun card.

'Now it's time to take their belongings.'

He wasted no time and immediately took their weapons and space rings.

'I will sell their weapons and space rings later.'

He would sell all the weapons and space rings he got from enemies in Herora city.

He also intended to buy a few swords, wands, bows, and arrows because he needed them for his clone.

"They only have money in their space rings." He sighed after checking their space rings.

There were 11 gold coins, 60 silver coins and 80 copper coins. In total, Ace had 40 gold coins, 150 silver coins and 190 copper coins now.

He also had five unused space rings now. These space rings were from Gideon, Jason, the skeleton, Zac and Lewis.

"It seems like you have a lot of money now." Scarlett knew how much money he had because she had seen his money earlier.

Ace put his sword and bow into his space ring. "How about you become my sugar baby now?"

"Hehe." She giggled after hearing his question. "I don't want to. You are my toy boy, so why are you asking me to be your sugar baby? Whatever happens, I'm your sugar mama."

"Then how abo-" he stopped his words halfway when he saw fifteen people suddenly appear in front of them.

Ace and Scarlett knew they were from the same group as Zac and Lewis because they wore the same clothes.

They wore white clothes with Black Tiger symbols on the chest and back.

'Damn it! Why is my luck so bad after transmigrating to this world?'

He kept getting into trouble since he was transmigrated into his current world, especially after they returned to the Framingburns forest.

He even felt like the world hated him and wanted to kill him.

The red-haired man, who had a tattoo on his left cheek, clenched his fist after seeing Lewis' and Zac's corpses. "Forth brother, fifth brother!"

The bald man gritted his teeth. "Lewis, Zac!"

The blue-haired man uttered, "Big brother, let's kill them!"

The red-haired man said coldly. "Kill them!"

Ace immediately carried Scarlett in a princess style and ran away. Among these fifteen people, three of them were at the Master rank, and the others were at the Elite rank.

They only had a little stamina left, so fighting them was a stupid decision.

No!

Even if their stamina were full, they still would not be able to defeat these people because they won by numbers.

"Chase them!" the red-haired man shouted.

"Hehe." Scarlett giggled as she looked at Ace's handsome face.

Previously, she was ready to flee because she knew fighting them was not the best decision.

She just did not expect him to carry her before running away.

'It seems like I have a special place in his heart.'

Of course, she loved it because his actions showed one meaning.

He put her first!

"Why are you giggling like that, young lady?" Ace did not understand why she giggled happily like that because they were in a dangerous situation now.

"Nothing!" she was not scared at all because she was in his arms. "Ace, if we manage to run away from them, I will reward you later. However, you have to keep carrying me."

Any woman would be terrified or panicked if they were in her shoes, but Scarlett was different.

She even did not show the slightest fear in her eyes, as if everything was still under her control.

Ace suddenly remembered the reward given by the system.

'Yes. We can escape from them using that card.'

He decided to use the Windrun card because they were getting closer to him.

"Stop right there!"

"Kid, fight me like a man if you dare!"

"How dare you kill our brothers!"

The Black Tiger members were getting closer and closer to Ace.

Ace looked at Scarlett before finally speaking, "Then, don't forget to reward me later."

'System, activate the Windrun card.'

He added in his head.

[Ding! Windrun card activated.]

His running speed suddenly increased drastically.

The Black Tiger members were shocked.

They were stunned.

Previously, they believed they could catch up to him, but they were wrong.

Of course, they did not give up and kept chasing Ace and Scarlett because they wanted to kill them.

However, the distance between them was getting farther and farther because their running speed was much slower than Ace's.

After chasing Ace and Scarlett for several minutes, the Black Tiger members gave up because they had lost their track.

"Remember their faces! Kill them immediately if you see them." The red-haired man still wanted to take revenge on Ace and Scarlett.

"Understood, big brother." The Black Tiger members replied in unison.

"Let's return to take our brothers' corpses." The red-haired man uttered.

They immediately returned to the place where Ace killed Lewis and Zac.

"Ace, how can you suddenly run so fast like this?" Scarlett was startled when his running speed suddenly increased drastically.

"I used an artifact tool to help me increase my running speed." He decided to lie to her because he could not reveal the truth.

"I see." She believed it instantly. "Is it an artifact that can only be used one time?"

"Sadly yes." He responded, "I won't be able to use it again after this."

He kept running until the effect of the Windrun card wore off.

The distance between the Black Tiger members and them was so far now, but they were also getting further and further away from the city of Herora.

"Ace, there is a lake in front of us. Let's rest there." Scarlett uttered.

"Alright." He replied.
