Binding System



"Captain Lia, Captain Noah, take your subordinates to the base and treat their injuries." Ace did not want them to keep fighting the magical beasts because they were already injured.

"Ace, I can still fight." The red-haired man tried to stand up with the help of his spear.

"Me too, Ace. I can still fight." The green-haired man tried his best to stand up.

"Me too."

"I can still fight too."

"Me too."

"Ace, this injury is nothing to me. I can still fight."

"That's right. This injury is nothing."

One by one, they rose to their feet.

Even though they were injured, they still wanted to fight these magical beasts because it was their duty to protect their city.

"Ace, fighting them alone is not the best decision." Captain Lia did not want Ace to fight them alone because it was dangerous.

"Captain Lia is right, Ace." Captain Noah added. "We know you are strong, but there are still forty magical beasts left. Two of them are even already at 3-star. Isn't it better to fight together?"

Ace smiled before finally speaking, "I never said I would fight them alone. Look! My underlings have come."

Right after Ace's voice stopped, the sound of horses running toward them reverberated in the entire area.

"Leader…" Mia and Renea said in unison.

Previously, Ace created a clone and ordered his clone to ask Mia and Renea to help him. 

He did not order all of his underlings to help him. 

He believed Mia and Renea were more than enough to kill fifty magical beasts because they were already at Master rank. 

"Both of them are already at Master rank, so don't worry about us." Ace told them that his underlings were powerful.

No!

It was not like he wanted to show off.

He said this because he wanted Captain Noah and Captain Lia to treat the city guards who were injured.

They were the protectors of the city, so he did not want any of them to die.

Captain Noah and Captain Lia exchanged a glance with each other before finally nodding their heads. 

"Alright." They agreed with his idea. "Everyone, we will return to our base now. Ace and his subordinates will take it from here."

"Captain Noah, I can still fight." The brown-haired man uttered,

"Me too." the red-haired man spoke, "I only have minor injuries. I can still fight."

Some of them still wanted to fight these magical beasts.

Sure, they were injured, but their fighting spirit did not decrease in the slightest.

They still wanted to kill these magical beasts!

They still wanted to protect their city!

They were city guards, so they would continue to do their duty as long as they could still fight. 

"Anyone with only minor injuries can help Ace." Captain Noah uttered, "But those who are seriously injured must return to the base with me."

Among them, only ten people were allowed to help Ace because the others were seriously injured and needed to be treated immediately by healing mages.

"Be careful, everyone." After saying that, Captain Noah took his subordinates to their base.

"Do you think I will let you leave this place?" the Golden Gorilla uttered, "Kill them now!"

Ten magical beasts rushed toward Captain Noah and the others, trying to kill them. 

"Earth Wall." Renea used her magic to stop these magical beasts.

"Slash of Light." Mia instantly used one of her skills.

Boom!

These ten magical beasts were instantly cut in half, and the Earth Wall was shattered into pieces.

"One move. She killed ten 2-star magical beasts with only one move."

"I knew she was strong, but she was stronger than I thought."

"It seems like we are not needed here."

"I think so too."

The city guards suddenly felt like they were not needed because Mia could kill ten 2-star magical beasts easily.

"Grrr…" the White Bear was furious. "Attack them again!"

Ten magical beasts rushed toward Renea and Mia.

Renea used her magic again. "Gush."

A huge and powerful water column suddenly spewed up from the ground, causing these ten magical beasts to fly into the mid-air. 

"Slash of Light." Mia used the same skill.

And like before, these ten magical beasts died right after being hit by her skill.

Twenty magical beasts!

In less than a minute, Renea and Mia had killed half of the magical beasts.

Of course, something like this was normal because these magical beasts were only at 2-star, so there was no way they could survive from Mia's attack.

The White Bear was unhappy. "Golden Gorilla, I will kill these two female humans. You take care of this male human."

"Alright." The Golden Gorilla responded.

But when the White Bear was about to dash to Renea and Mia, Ace stopped him. "Your opponent is me. Both you and the gorilla have to fight me first if you want to attack them."

"What?! You want to fight us alone? Hahaha. Did I hear it right?" the White Bear laughed after hearing Ace's words. 

"This human is so arrogant!" the Golden Gorilla stated. 

"Are you going to refuse?" Ace inquired, "You are not scared of me, right?"

"Tch!" the White Bear was unhappy with Ace's words and behavior. "Golden Gorilla, let's grant his death wish. Let's show him the consequences of challenging us."

"Yes." The Golden Gorilla responded instantly, "Let's show him the difference between him and us." 

"Don't regret it later, human." The Golden Gorilla and the White Bear rushed toward him.

"I hope your strength is as big as your brag." After saying that, Ace dashed toward them.

Outskirts of Nightshire City, Northern Region.

"Wounded soldiers return to the base and treat your injuries." Valeria spoke and paused for a second before she continued, "Those who can still fight follow me. We will go to the Eastern region and help the troops there."

More than half of her subordinates followed her to the Eastern region because only a few of them were injured. 

'I hope no 3-star magical beasts appear there.' 

Captain Noah and the others were only at Elite rank, so Valeria knew what would happen to them if a 3-star magical beast appeared.

As they were on their way to the Eastern region, the situation in the Eastern region was already under control.

Mia and Renea had killed all the magical beasts, while Ace had defeated the Golden Gorilla and the White Bear.

Even though the Golden Gorilla and the White Bear were still alive, but they were heavily injured and lying on the ground.

They could not even stand up anymore because they got hit by the Great Lightning Dragon magic and the third form of the Yin-Yang Dragon skill.

It could be said that they were dying because their internal organs had been destroyed. 

"You are weaker than I thought." Ace, who was standing in front of them, uttered.

The Golden Gorilla and the White Bear could only grit their teeth. They could not boast or act arrogantly like before because they had lost the fight.

"Haha." The White Bear laughed. "Human, you can enjoy your victory now, but it won't last long because Lord Dezmavas will soon kill you and destroy your city. Hahaha."

"What?! Lord Dezmavas? Destroy our city?" the city guards said in surprise.
