Binding System-Chapter 239 Testing Divine Arrow Skill

239 Testing Divine Arrow Skill

Ace was currently standing on top of a tree.

No!

He was not trying to look cool.

He also was not enjoying the beautiful view.

He was standing on a tree because he was looking for a magical beast.

He could not find a magical beast earlier, so he decided to survey the entire forest from a high vantage point.

This was the reason why he was standing on top of a tree.

'There!'

Ace jumped from a tree after finding his target.

When he was falling to the ground, a beautiful ice wing formed on his back.

Yes, he used Ice Wing magic when he was falling to the ground.

He wanted to test Divine Arrow skill immediately, so he decided to fly toward that magical beast.

"Sssttt…" the King Cobra was startled when Ace suddenly appeared before him.

This King Cobra was like the normal King Cobra.

The difference was that this King Cobra was huge, with a height of about three meters. If he were not big and tall, he would look like the King Cobra in Ace's previous life.

"Oh, this magical beast is huge and tall." Ace, who was floating before the King Cobra, uttered.

"Die, human!" the King Cobra did not speak nonsense and immediately attacked Ace.

But before its tail hit Ace, a magic circle appeared under it.

The King Cobra was shocked.

'Magic circle?'

When the King Cobra wanted to avoid Ace's magic, it was already too late because four ice chains had entangled its body.

Ace, who was floating in mid-air, approached the King Cobra slowly.

The King Cobra was unhappy with Ace's actions and retorted, "Lowly human, I will ki-"

Bang!

Before the King Cobra had finished his words, Ace kicked its head.

"Uackk…" blood splashed out of its mouth after getting kicked by Ace.

Ace retrieved an arrow from his space ring and chased its blood.

'Got it.'

He was pleased when he saw the King Cobra's blood on the arrowhead.

'With this, I can test the Divine Arrow skill.'

With that idea in mind, he took out his bow from his space ring.

"Lowly human, how dare you kick me!" after breaking the ice chains, the King Cobra rushed toward Ace.

Ace immediately put some distance between them because he wanted to attack the King Cobra.

"King Cobra, try your best to stop this." Ace shot his arrow at King Cobra.

The arrowhead gleamed in red, and the arrow suddenly looked terrifying. It was as if the arrow belonged to the God of Archery, not a human being.

At first, the King Cobra wanted to use his tail to block the arrow, but his instinct told him that he should not do that.

'My instinct told me to avoid that arrow.'

A magical beast was born with a good instinct, especially a predator like the King Cobra.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

The sound of Ace's arrow destroying trees and stones reverberated in the entire area.

"Damn it! Why does this arrow keep following me?" the King Cobra was startled because the arrow kept flying toward him.

The arrow even did not stop despite colliding with trees and huge stones.

This was the reason why the King Cobra was furious because it distracted him from attacking Ace.

'Tch! At this rate, I will just attack that lowly human. Maybe this arrow will stop chasing me if that human dies.'

With that idea in mind, the King Cobra rushed toward Ace.

"You made a mistake, King Cobra. You should not run toward me." After saying that, Ace raised his right hand forward.

'Thunderbolt.'

He decided to use Thunderbolt magic.

"Lowly human, do you think your lowly magic can hit me?" the King Cobra said as he avoided Ace's magic.

Ace was not provoked by the King Cobra's words and kept using Thunderbolt magic.

"Lowly human, your magic will never hit me." The King Cobra said Ace's magic was weak and useless.

Like before, Ace still acted calmly. "Got you."

"This king will never get hit by your lowly mag-" the King Cobra stopped his words halfway when eight ice chains entangled his body.

Ace did not use Thunderbolt magic carelessly.

"This skill deserves its name. It even can kill a 3-star magical beast." Even though the King Cobra had 10:10

just broken through to the 3-star, Ace was still satisfied with the result.

He used Thunderbolt magic to make King Cobra go where he wanted.

In other words, the King Cobra had fallen into his trap since the beginning, but he did not realize it.

"This magic again! I will te-" before the King Cobra had finished his words, the arrow pierced his heart.

"Oh, the King Cobra is dying immediately." Ace was pleased with the power of Divine Arrow skill.

"I did not expect to die today." shortly after that, the King Cobra died.

"This skill deserves its name. It even can kill a 3-star magical beast." Even though the King Cobra had just broken through to the 3-star, Ace was still satisfied with the result.

'Oh, beast core?'

The happiness within him grew bigger when he saw a beast core floating above the King Cobra's corpse.

As Ace was taking a beast core, news about his duel with Leo spread across the entire Nightshire city.

Everyone was shocked when they heard the news, especially people who did not know how strong he was.

Sure, they had heard some rumors about Ace, but from their point of view, Ace made a big mistake because Leo was the strongest awakener in the younger generation.

Of course, his underlings believed their leader would defeat Leo because their leader was an Aeris and a powerful awakener.

Ace's Restaurant, Backyard.

"Hmm? Leo challenged Ace to duel with him?" Layla, who was sitting on a wooden bench, looked at the announcement text in her right hand.

Not only did Henry spread the word about Ace's duel with his son, but he also made an announcement text about it because he wanted the people of Nightshire City to watch their duel.

This was a good opportunity to humiliate Ace in public, so he wanted everyone to watch the duel.

"It seems like this Leo is already tired of living." Even though she admitted that Leo was a powerful awakener, she believed Leo would not be able to defeat Ace.

She had seen how powerful Ace was, so she believed Leo would lose the fight later.

'Well, I will watch their duel tomorrow because I want to see him crushing Leo.'

City Guard Headquarters, Scarlett's Office.

"Hmm? Leo challenged Ace?" like Layla, Scarlett was also startled. "Why didn't he tell me about it?"

She looked at the announcement text before finally touching her chin.

'Is this Henry's idea?'

She suddenly thought it was Henry's idea because she knew Henry hated Ace to the bone.

"I will ask Ace about this later." She was not worried about the duel because she also believed Leo would not be able to defeat Ace.

Ace was a powerful awakener, so from her view, the possibility of Ace losing against Leo was zero.

Unless someone helped Leo, he would not be able to defeat Ace. After all, Ace could defeat a 3-star magical beast quickly.

'But I still need to tell him to be careful.'

----

City Guard Headquarters, Training Ground.

"Hey, did you hear the news about the duel between Ace and Leo?" the blue-haired man inquired.

"Oh, I know about it." The red-haired man responded. "Leo challenged Ace, right?"

"Yes. And they agreed to duel tomorrow in the arena." The blue-haired man spoke.

"Oh! I will watch their duel tomorrow." The green-haired man spoke abruptly.

"I will watch their duel too." the brown-haired man added.

"Who do you think will win the fight?" the blue-haired man inquired.

"Of course, Ace will win the fight. Have you forgotten how he killed a 3-star red ogre in less than five minutes?"

"Ah, I remembered it."

"I also think Ace will defeat Leo."

"I think so too."

"Yes. There is no way Ace will lose to Leo."

"I agree."

One by one, Scarlett's subordinates talked about the news.

Valeria, who was sitting not far from them, looked at them.

'Hmm? The duel between Ace and Leo?' 𝑏𝘦𝑑𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Like Scarlett, she also did not know about it because Ace said nothing about Leo's challenge.

'I will talk about this with sister Scarlett.'

With that idea in mind, she rose to his feet and headed to Scarlett's office.

----

Zait District, Park.

Lily and Lala were currently sitting on a wooden bench under a tree. Like the others, they also discussed Ace's duel with Leo.

Of course, they hoped Ace would defeat Leo because they hated Leo to the bone.

"Lala, should we meet Ace now?" Lily inquired.
