Binding System

Ace immediately shut his eyes after Scarlett left to cook dinner because he needed to rest to recover.

She decided to cook a healthy meal because he was not in good condition. For this reason, it took her a long time to cook dinner.

Her face blossomed into a smile when she saw the food on the wooden plate.

'Now I only need to bring it to him and eat together with him.'

Her face broke into a smile when she saw him sleeping on the wooden bed.

She immediately sat on the edge of the bed after putting the food on the table next to the bed.

Scarlett did not wake him up immediately; instead, she looked at his sleeping face and caressed his hair gently.

Shortly after that, Ace woke up. "Scarlett?"

"I have cooked for us." Scarlett showed her soft smile. "Let's eat now."

He immediately sat up.

Even though he had rested for about four hours, he still had not fully recovered because he forced his body to work beyond its limits, causing him to get physical fatigue.

Ace was a little surprised when he saw a healthy meal in Scarlett's hands. Previously, he thought they would eat grilled fish or grilled meat, but he was wrong.

He was utterly wrong because she cooked a healthy meal for him. Even though it was not soup, but it looked like soup.

Did he like it?

Of course, he loved it!

His body needed nutrition to help him recover faster, so he was touched when she cooked healthy food for him.

Not only was it hard to cook a healthy meal in the forest, but she could get killed by magical beasts when she picked up the vegetables.

Sure, it was only simple food, but it was meaningful for him. He believed she put a lot of effort into making this simple meal because they were in a dangerous forest.

These were the reasons why he was touched by her actions.

"Let me feed you." She wanted to feed him because he was not in good condition.

"You can't eat your food if you feed me. It's fine. I can eat by myself." Even though he still had not fully recovered, but he could move his hands.

However, Scarlett ignored his words and tried to feed him. "Here, open your mouth."

Ace did not open his mouth immediately; instead, he looked at her. He shifted his gaze to the meal on the wooden spoon before returning his attention to her pretty face.

"Open your mouth." Like before, Scarlett showed her soft smile.

Ace did not know what had happened to him, but he slowly opened his mouth when he saw her soft smile, as if he was charmed by her smile.

Not only that, but he also felt his love for her suddenly grow bigger.

'It sems like I have been charmed by her.'

He looked into her eyes as she fed him.

"Is there something on my face?" she inquired.

"I've been charmed by your soft smile and beautiful eyes." He gave an honest answer.

Scarlett's lips curled up into a smile. "Are you trying to seduce me now?"

"I'm telling the truth." He stated.

"You have to recover first before thinking of seducing me." Even though she said something like this, but she felt a glimmer of happiness. "Here, eat again."

Like before, Ace looked into her eyes as he consumed the food, as if there was a magnet between their eyes.

'It seems like I'm a lucky person.'

Scarlett had no idea that her simple actions made his love for her grow bigger.

After eating dinner, she uttered, "You should rest now so that you can recover quickly."

Ace immediately grabbed her right hand when she was about to put the dishes in the kitchen.

She turned her head to look at him.

'Hmm?'

She stared at her right hand, which was being held by him.

She shifted her gaze from her right hand to his face before finally asking, "Do you need anything, Ace?"

"Let's sleep together." he had no idea as to why he suddenly behaved like that.

'What's wrong with me?'

He suddenly suspected it was because of her caring attitude.

Scarlett gave him a peck on the lips before finally smiling. "Let me put the dishes in the kitchen first. After that, we will sleep together."

"Un." After nodding his head, he released her right hand.

Ace was lying on the wooden bed when Scarlett returned to the bedroom. She had promised to sleep with him, so she immediately lay on his right side.

She placed her head on his right arm before finally putting her right hand on his chest. "Good night, darling."

Ace was pleasantly surprised.

'Darling?'

Normally, she would say 'good night, my toy boy', so he was pleasantly surprised after hearing her words.

He kissed her forehead before showing his charming smile. "Good night, my love."

The duo fell asleep shortly after that.

Time went by quickly, and without realizing it, it had been two days since they got out of the Death Valley.

At this moment, Ace had fully recovered because Scarlett kept cooking healthy food and taking care of him.

"Beautiful!" Scarlett stated.

She was currently sitting on a cliff with Ace. They immediately headed to a cliff after eating breakfast because they wanted to see the beautiful morning from a cliff.

Her face blossomed into a smile when Ace suddenly held her right hand.

"Scarlett, do you want to do something exciting?" he inquired.

"Something exciting?" she still did not get his words. "What is it?"

Ace did not answer her question and immediately used his Ice Wing magic. He could fly now, so he wanted to take her to see the beautiful morning from the sky.

"Kya!" Scarlett was startled when Ace suddenly carried her in a princess style. "Do you want to take me flying?"

"Let's enjoy this beautiful morning from the sky." After saying that, he flew into the sky.

Happy smiles appeared on their faces when they enjoyed the beautiful morning from the sky.

They were thrilled because it was a new experience for them.

"How is it?" Ace inquired.

He was currently standing on top of a tree. Of course, he was still carrying Scarlett because she could not fly like him.

"Beautiful!" she stated.

The duo enjoyed the beautiful morning for a few minutes before finally returning to the abandoned house.

When Ace remembered Goddess Teressa's quest, he immediately looked for magical beasts.

He was at master rank now, so completing Goddess Teressa's quest was as easy as turning the palm of the hand.

----

Mission Target.

Kill 1-star magical beast: 20/20

Kill 2-star magical beast: 10/10

Donate 20 gold coins to Goddess Teressa's orphanage: 0/20

----

A happy smile appeared on his face when he saw the target mission.

'I only need to donate 20 gold coins to Goddess Teressa's orphanage and I can become a unique magician.'

He had 29 gold coins in his space ring, so all he needed to do was go to Goddess Teressa's orphanage.

'Today is a beautiful day!'

He returned to the abandoned house with a smile on his face.

'It's time to get out of this forest!'
