Binding System

'Hmm? Who are they?'

Tom was surprised when he saw Ace and Scarlett.

But what surprised him most was that Ace was carrying a sword on his waist and a bow on his back.

'Why is he carrying a sword and a bow? Does he want to show off his weapons?'

He suddenly thought of something.

'Wait! Is he a Rheanix? Or is he just pretending to be Rheanix?'

He looked at Ace intently.

There were many people who pretended to be Rheanix or Aeris because they would gain a lot from doing so.

Not only would everyone treat them well, but they could avoid problems too.

This was the main reason why countless people dared to pretend to be Rheanix and Aeris in the past.

Even though there were many benefits from pretending to be Rheanix and Aeris, but the consequences were fatal.

Many people would hunt them down, including Rheanix and Aeris!

Rheanix and Aeris were titles for those loved by the heavens, so there would be no mercy for anyone who dared to pretend to be them.

For this reason, only a few people dared to pretend to be Rheanix or Aeris now because many people would hunt them down.

Not only would they become wanted people, but there was also a high possibility of them dragging their families into their troubles.

After all, it was a big sin for ordinary awakeners to pretend to be Rheanix or Aeris because they were people chosen by the heavens.

By pretending to be Aeris and Rheanix, that meant they challenged the will of the heavens.

Scarlett dared to ask Ace to pretend to be Rheanix because he was Aeris, so nothing bad would happen to them.

"Fellow awakeners, don't get involved in our business or else you will regret it later." Even though Tom still behaved arrogantly, but he was worried deep inside him.

Yes, he only pretended to act tough because, with this, Ace and Scarlett would think twice before getting involved in their business.

In short, he was only bluffing!

However, his bluff was meaningless because Ace and Scarlett did not show the slightest fear in their eyes.

They even behaved normally, as if Tom was a kid who tried to pick a fight with them.

Allan rose to his feet and stood in front of Ace and Scarlett, trying to protect them. "You traitor! They are not related to me. I'm here. Come at me if you dare!"

Even though he was injured, he still tried to protect Ace and Scarlett because he did not want innocent people to get involved in his problem.

"Traitor?" Ace still had no idea who they were.

"They are my family's subordinates. My family treat them well, but they betray us. They want to kidnap me so that they can get a lot of money from my family." Allan told Ace who they were.

Ace and Scarlett finally knew what was going on.

'I see.'

Actually, they had suspected it.

Tom was unhappy because Ace and Scarlett knew everything now.

"I suggest you two not to get invo-" before Tom had finished his words, an arrow flew towards him at an incredible speed.

Boom!

Even though Tom managed to block the arrow, he was still thrown ten meters before finally crashing into a tree.

Ace turned his head to look at Scarlett.

'This lady…'

The corner of his lips twitched.

Not only Ace but Allan was also startled. He did not expect her to attack Tom without giving a warning.

​ Did he feel sorry for Tom?

Of course, not!

Tom was his enemy, so he was pleased when Tom was injured by Scarlett's attack.

"I hate ungrateful people like them the most." Scarlett told Ace the reason why she suddenly attacked Tom.

"Couch!" Tom coughed blood before finally standing up.

'Damn it!'

He no longer cared about their identities. She dared to attack him, so he wanted to teach her a lesson.

"Brothers, kill her!" Tom roared. "Kill her now!"

Tom's brothers rushed towards Scarlett, intending to attack her.

However, Scarlett was one step ahead of them. She had already used her skill before they attacked her.

"Agghh."

"Aghh."

"Agghh."

"Agghh."

They screamed in pain as they were showered with countless arrows.

Yes, Scarlett used her Arrow Shower skill to attack them!

They were only at Novice and Elite rank, so they could not do anything when she attacked them.

Head, arms, chest, legs; every part of their bodies was hit by her arrows.

One by one, Tom's brothers fell to the ground, dead.

Allan widened his eyes in shock.

'They are dead?'

He was shocked when Scarlett could kill them easily.

Previously, he was about to help her, but now he knew that she did not need his help because she could kill them in a single attack.

Terror overtook his face when Tom saw what was happening in front of him.

He had suspected that Scarlett was strong, but he did not expect her to be much more powerful than he thought.

It could not even be called a fight because his brothers could not do anything when she attacked them.

There was only one word that could describe what he was seeing.

Massacre!

Yes, Scarlett was massacring his brothers!

Bang!

Tom fell to his knees.

'It's over! It's over. My dream is shattered.'

Scarlett could kill his brothers easily, so he knew he was not her opponent.

'My life is over!'

Previously, he thought he would have a better life from tomorrow onwards, but he was wrong.

He was utterly wrong because Scarlett destroyed his dream in less than ten seconds.

"Haha." He laughed in despair. "Haha."

He had offended the Wynn family, so he knew there was only one outcome for him.

Death!

There was no way the Wynn family would forgive him because he tried to kidnap Allan earlier.

Allan walked closer toward Tom and inquired, "Do you regret your actions now?"

Tom immediately took a knife from his space ring.

His intention was clear.

He wanted to commit suicide!

Committing suicide was the best option for him because there was a high possibility that the Wynn family would torture him.

The Wynn family really loved Allan, so they would show no mercy to anyone who had bad intentions toward him.

"Do you think I will let you commit suicide?" after saying that, he caught Tom's right hand, causing him to be unable to commit suicide.

Bang!

Allan hit the back side of Tom's neck, causing him to fall unconscious instantly.

He turned around and uttered, "Thank you for helping me. May I know your name?"

Before Ace could answer Allan's question, Scarlett responded, "He is young master Cain. I'm Elize, his bodyguard."

"Thank you, young master Cain, lady Elize." Allan thanked them again. "My name is Allan Wynn."

"What are you going to do to them?" Ace asked curiously.

"I will bring him home to account for his actions. As for the others…" Allan looked at the corpses on the ground. "I will let them become food for magical beasts."

Ace and Scarlett did not say anything when Allan said a cruel thing because they had betrayed him.

As Ace was talking with Allan, a young woman in red armor rushed toward him from behind, pointing her sword at his back.
