Binding System

Chapter 53 Illusion

Scarlett and Ace were currently standing among the countless flowers. Their faces were full of smiles because they did not know they were in a dangerous place.

"I didn't expect to find a beautiful place in Death Valley." Previously, she thought Death Valley was filled with scary and dangerous places, but she was wrong.

She was utterly wrong because they found a flower garden-like place in Death Valley.

Ace smiled softly when he saw her happy face.

'It seems like she really loves flower.'

He followed her from behind.

They didn't realize that they inhaled the pollen from the flowers around them. The pollen was not deadly, but it would make them unable to think straight and like magical beasts.

Scarlett turned around and smiled happily. "Ace, come here."

Like before, he walked toward her with a smile on his face. "It seems like you really love flowers."

"Yes." She nodded her head.

To their surprise, two small magical beasts with round bodies suddenly appeared before them.

They had large purple eyes, two fluffy ears, two tiny legs, and a fluffy tail. The colors of its fur were white and purple.

They looked so cute, to the point anyone would like them instantly after seeing them.

"Kyu."

"Kyu."

They jumped from one place to another before finally jumping into Scarlett and Ace's arms.

"Kyu."

"Kyu."

"Kyu."

They looked so cute, causing Ace and Scarlett to forget they were magical beasts.

No!

There was a reason why they liked these two small magical beasts instantly and could not think straight.

It was because they had inhaled pollen from the flowers around them!

"Kyu."

"Kyu."

"Kyu"

These two magical beasts acted cutely.

Scarlett and Ace's eyes suddenly turned blue.

Ace and Scarlett had fallen into their trap!

"Kyu."

"Kyu."

"Kyu."

These two magical beasts smirked when Ace and Scarlett fell into their illusion.

Ace suddenly appeared in the backyard of his house. Of course, it was not real because he was under the illusion of a magical beast.

'Grandpa, father?'

He saw his father and grandfather playing chess next to the swimming pool.

"Grandpa, father!" Ace rushed toward them.

Xiao Tian and Xiao Liu Feng turned their heads toward the source of the sound. Both of them smiled softly when they saw Ace.

"Son, you have returned?" Xiao Liu Feng uttered, "Didn't you say you would stay at your friend's house today?"

Ace sat next to his grandpa and responded, "I changed my mind. By the way, father. How many times have you lost playing chess with grandpa this time? Five times? Or ten times?"

"What makes you think I lost playing chess with your grandpa?" Xiao Liu Feng inquired.

"Because you've always challenged grandpa but never won even once until now." Ace knew that his father always challenged his grandpa in everything but never won once until now.

"What are you saying, son? I have won ten times, you know?" Xiao Liu Feng lied to his son.

"Father, stop lying to me." Ace responded, "You don't need to feel embarrassed because it's normal to lose to grandpa. After all, grandpa is the best man in the world."

Xiao Tian chuckled after hearing his grandson's remarks.

"Damn! You are my son, so you should support me, not your grandpa." Even though Xiao Liu Feng said something like this, he was not angry at his son because he knew how close they were.

"I love grandpa more than you, so I will always support grandpa." Ace said something cruel without caring about his father's feelings.

Xiao Liu Feng looked at Xiao Tian and complained. "Father, this is your fault! I hate you!"

Xiao Tian smiled softly before looking at his grandson. "Oh right, little Ming. Your father told me that you had broken through to the low-level grandmaster stage? Is that true?"

"Yes." Ace answered proudly. "Grandpa, I'm one step closer to be like you. Hehe. I will become the Ruler like you in the future."

"Then you have to practice martial art diligently because the road to becoming a ruler is not easy." Xiao Tian caressed his grandson's hair while smiling softly.

At this moment, a voice suddenly rang out. "Little Ming, don't listen to your grandpa's words. You are still young, so you should enjoy yourself more and hang out with your friends. Don't think about martial arts every day or else you will regret it in the future."

When Ace saw an old woman walking toward them, he rose to his feet and rushed toward her. "Grandma!"

The old woman smiled softly as she caressed his hair. "My grandson has grown up now."

"Hehe." Ace smiled happily as he embraced his grandmother.

As happiness swelled within him, a notification popped up.

[Host, wake up. This is not real. They are fake. You have fallen under the illusion of a magical beast.]

Ace was startled.

'What is this?'

He was shocked when a notification suddenly appeared.

[Wake up, or else you will lose your life later.]

The system kept giving him warnings. However, Ace still enjoyed his time with his fake family because he really missed them.

After giving him several warnings, Ace came to his senses. His face turned sad because he would not be able to see them again.

He wanted to keep spending time with them, but he knew he could not do that or else he would lose his life.

The system said the magical beast had started absorbing his life essence.

'Father, grandpa, grandma.'

He really missed his family.

This was the reason why he did not break the illusion immediately.

"Son, where are you going?" Xiao Liu Feng inquired, "Didn't you say you wanted to spend time with us today? Are you going to hang out with your friends again?"

"Little Ming, how about practice martial arts with grandpa now?" Xiao Tian smiled softly. "Grandpa will teaches you how to manipulate the energy of heaven and earth later."

"Little Ming, how about going somewhere with grandma now?" his grandma added.

Ace gritted his teeth.

[Host, they are fake. They are not your real family.]

'I know, but….'

He felt immense pain in his heart.

[Host, your life essence is being absorbed right now. You should know that time is important to you now.]

Ace took a deep breath before exhaling.

'Tell me how to break this illusion.'

He believed his system knew how to break the illusion.

[Kill them! You will come out of this illusion after killing them.]

Ace widened his eyes.

Even though they were fake, but he did not want to kill them because they were wearing his family's faces.

[Host, remember your dream. You won't be able to become the Ruler if you are soft and weak like this.]

Ace really missed his family, so he could not behave like he used to.

*Sring…

He unsheathed his Phoenix sword.

"Son, what are you doing? Why are you unsheathing your sword? And why are you wearing an expression like that? Are you going to kill us? Are you going to kill your family?" Xiao Liu Feng threw many questions at once.

"I'm sorry father. I love you." After saying that, he stabbed his father in the heart.

His father's body instantly shattered into pieces.

Ace felt immense pain when he saw his father's body shattered into pieces.

'I'm sorry, father.'

After killing his father, he killed his grandmother.

'I'm sorry, grandma.'

When he was about to kill his grandfather, something unexpected happened.
