Binding System-Chapter 234 It’s Your Reward

'Challenge Ace and defeat him?'

Leo was shocked by the condition to form a contract with the God of Wind.

Previously, he thought the condition was hard, but he was wrong.

He was utterly wrong because he only needed to challenge Ace and defeat him, nothing more than that.

He even did not need to sacrifice something.

It was as if God of Wind really liked him and wanted to form a contract with him.

[God of Wind asks, how is it, child? Do you agree with my condition?]

"I agreed!" Leo answered instantly.

'It seems like the heavens are helping me.'

He suddenly felt like the heavens were helping him.

He wanted to kill Ace because he suspected Ace was the mastermind behind his brother's death.

And coincidently, the condition to form a contract with God of Wind was to challenge and defeat him.

Killing two birds with one stone!

That would be the right word to describe this situation because he would fulfill the condition if he killed Ace.

[God of Wind utters, but I want everyone in this city to see your duel with him.]

"What if I lose to him?" he inquired.

[God of Wind answer, then I won't form a contract with you.]

Leo clenched his fist. "I understand. I will defeat him and form a contract with you."

[God of Wind speaks, I will talk to you again after you defeat him.]

Leo immediately rushed toward the family room because he wanted to share the good news with his father.

As Leo was running happily, Henry sipped his tea elegantly.

'Damn it! I hate it when everything is out of my control like this.'

He could not attack Ace openly because he was Scarlett's boy toy.

"I have to create a stage for my son to fight him." he believed Leo could defeat Ace because Leo almost broke through to the Grandmaster stage.

As he was sipping his tea elegantly, Leo's voice rang out.

"Father, I have good news." At this moment, Leo could not control the happiness within him.

Henry looked at his son and inquired, "What is it?"

"I talked with God of Wind earlier." Leo responded instantly.

Henry was shocked. "God of Wind?"

"Yes." Leo nodded his head. "And God of Wind offered me a contract."

"God of Wind offered you a contract?!" Henry was shocked again and instantly stood up. "Son, tell me in detail."

"It's like this, father." Leo began telling everything in detail.

He also told his father that the condition to form a contract with God of Wind was to challenge Ace and defeat him.

"Haha." Henry laughed loudly. "As expected of my son, you are indeed amazing."

"Father, please give me all information about Ace, including his magic and skills. I want to study about him because it will increase my chance of defeating him." Leo was different from Edward.

Even though he believed he could defeat Ace, he still wanted to study him because he wanted to avoid making a single mistake.

That was why he asked his father to give him information about Ace because it could be said his future was on the line.

"Don't worry. Father will give you information about him tomorrow." Henry would support his son because Leo could change the fate of their family.

"Thank you, father." Leo thanked his father.

"Alright. You go back and practice again." Henry uttered. "Father will prepare information about Ace."

"Alright." After saying that, Leo returned to the backyard.

Ace's Mansion, Backyard.

Ace was currently sitting in a lotus position and closing his eyes. Even though he heard the notification sound, he did not open his eyes.

He even did not move an inch as if he was a statue, not a human being.

As Ace focused on absorbing the energy of heaven and earth, Layla walked closer to him. Of course, he did not know about this because he was closing his eyes.

"Hmm? Is he absorbing the energy of heaven and earth?" she touched her chin as she walked closer to him.

'Wait!'

She suddenly had a great idea when she was in front of him.

'Isn't this a good opportunity to tease him?'

Ace was closing his eyes, so she thought it was an excellent opportunity to tease him.

'Yes. This is a good opportunity to tease him. I should not let this opportunity slip away.'

With that idea in mind, she bent over and gave him a peck on the lips

[Several divine beings are shocked by Layla's actions.]

[God of Mountain opens his mouth in shock.]

'Did someone just kiss me?'

Ace slowly opened his eyes.

'Layla?'

He was startled, but of course, he did not show it on his face.

"Did you just kiss me?" he was still sitting in the lotus position when he threw a question at her.

"Yes." She gave an honest answer. "That is your reward for helping me earlier."

She did not act shy because they had kissed passionately before. They even did it a few times last month, so it would not make her shy.

"I see." He still acted normally because he had to maintain his image.

"Did you absorb the energy of heaven and earth just now?" she asked curiously.

"Yes. I don't have a beast core now." he used all his beast cores to upgrade his system, so there was no beast core in his space ring.

Of course, he did not regret it because his talent was as good as grade-A talent now. He even leveled up his agility earlier.

"Ace, can you take me to your restaurant now?" she inquired.

Instead of taking her to his restaurant immediately, he inquired, "Why do you suddenly want to go to my restaurant? Do you want to taste the food?"

"I've never visited your restaurant, so I want to see it." After saying that, she grabbed his hands and dragged him to his restaurant. "Let's go."

Ace could only sigh when she dragged him to his restaurant.

'It seems like I can't practice again today.'

Zait District, Rainbow Park.

Two attractive ladies were in the resting building. 𝗯𝗲𝐝𝐧𝗼𝘃𝗲𝐥．𝗰𝗼𝐦

One of them was sitting on the wooden floor and leaning her back against the wooden wall, while the other was lying on the floor.

If anyone saw them, that person would know immediately that these two ladies were twins because they had the same face.

The name of these two ladies were none other than Lily and Lala, powerful awakeners.

Lala, who was sitting on the wooden floor, sighed. "Lily, I can't find a way to apologize to him. Please help me."

"But it's your turn to think about it." Lily answered without looking at her twin sister.

"Lily, can't you see the smoke coming out of my head? Please help me." Lala was not good at using her brain, so she still could not find a way to apologize to Ace.

"Then let's use my idea." Lily was too lazy to find another idea.

"No! I don't want to use my body!" Lala shouted.

'Having good talent feels great.'

A soft smile spread across his face when he saw the notification.

Lily stared at her twin sister before finally looking at the beautiful flowers in front of her.

'Then you need to think of another way to apologize to him.'

Ace's Mansion, His Bedroom.

Ace was currently sitting in the lotus position on the bed.

He did not spend time with Scarlett and the others like usual because he wanted to meditate.

He wanted to get stronger quickly, so he decided to absorb the energy of heaven and earth after having dinner with them.

[Ding! You have leveled up.]

[Stamina: Lvl 59 -> Lvl 60.]

Ace slowly opened his eyes when he heard the notification sound.

'Having good talent feels great.'

A soft smile spread across his face when he saw the notification.

'If this continues, I will soon break through to the Grandmaster rank.'

The smile on his face grew bigger when he imagined he was at Grandmaster rank.

The strongest awakener in Nightshire city was only at Master rank.

That meant he would become the strongest awakener in Nightshire city if he could break through to the Grandmaster rank.

'I'm fired up right now.'

As his heart was throbbing with happiness, another notification popped up.

[Ding! God of Wind gives you a quest. The grandson of the Ruler must accept all challenges and defeat all challengers. Defeat someone in the arena and in front of everyone. If the conditions are met, God of Wind will give you an amazing card.]
