Chapter 65 I Will Kiss You

Ace could defeat Rey and his brothers in a short amount of time because they were only at Elite and Novice rank.

However, he did not kill them because Scarlett stopped him when he was about to end their lives.

'Hmm?'

He was shocked when he checked Rey's space ring.

'There is also a magic staff?'

Even though the magic staff was made of wood, but it was quite beautiful.

The bottom ends in an angular hook-shape made of crystal and had been decorated with glowing gems, which would glow more brightly when magic was used.

The top was made out of exclusive wood and had been crafted into a curved point, which had been decorated with bright crystals placed in such a way that they mimicked a flame in their appearance.

[Host, this magic staff can make the power of your flames magic stronger.]

He could not help but sigh.

'But I don't have flames magic.'

He decided to buy a flames spell book in Herora city later.

"Is there anything good in his space ring?" Scarlett asked curiously.

"There are twenty silver coins, fifty copper coins, one skill book, and one magic staff." Ace gave an honest answer.

"Magic staff and a skill book?" she was shocked because she thought there would only be money in Rey's space ring.

"Yes." He nodded his head. "But this skill book is for the Knight class."

"Then you should master that skill immediately." She told him to master the skill immediately because it only took him a few seconds to master a skill.

"Alright." he immediately learned that skill book.

The name of the skill book was Moon Slice, and it was an Uncommon Rank skill. Moon Slice was a skill that sent a wave of energy toward the enemy.

'I finally have another skill besides my secret technique.'

His heart pounded with happiness after mastering the Moon Slice skill because, all this time, he only used his secret technique to defeat his enemy.

His secret technique was close-range skill, so he was thrilled because he could attack his enemies from afar using his sword now.

He stored his bow, sword, and staff in his space ring because he wanted to punish Scarlett. "Lady, come here. I still haven't punished you for what you have done to me earlier."

"You want to punish me? Then, you have to catch me first." After saying that, she ran away from him.

"Hey, don't run away!" He ran after her.

They did not use their skills when they were running as if they were not awakeners.

"Hehe. Catch me if you can." Scarlett ran as she laughed happily.

"Bad lady, stop!" like Scarlett, he also ran with a smile on his face.

"I don't want to. Hehe." She kept running.

However, Ace could catch her shortly after that.

"I have caught you." He said after catching her from behind.

"Hehe." She still laughed happily, even though he managed to catch her. "So, what are you going to do to me now?"

"Hmm?" actually, he did not know what he wanted to do to her.

'How should I punish this bad lady?'

He finally found a good punishment for her.

"I will kiss you!" after saying that, he turned her body to face him and pressed his lips against hers.

Scarlett widened her eyes in surprise.

'Hmm?'

But she slowly shut her eyes, enjoying the kiss.

After stopping the kiss, Ace uttered, "Do you regret your actions now?"

Instead of answering his question, she jumped into his arms. "Hehe. I like the punishment."

She took off her mask before finally wrapping her long slender arms around his neck. Like before, she smiled happily as she looked at him.

He placed his hands on her buttocks so that she would not fall to the ground.

'She has a charming smile.'

He could see her charming smile because they were facing each other.

Ace started walking.

He did not put her down and kept carrying her.

"What a good toy boy!" she stated.

The corner of his lips twitched. "Aren't we already a couple now?"

"What makes you think we are lovers? Just because you can bed me every day doesn't mean we are a couple. Your status is still the same, my toy boy!" she almost laughed when she saw his expression.

"Then what should I do to raise my status from toy boy to boyfriend?" he threw another question.

"It's difficult." Of course, she already considered him her lover.

Otherwise, there was no way she let him bed her every day. She kept denying it because she loved seeing his expression when she said he was her toy boy.

"How difficult is it?" actually, he already knew about her feelings for him, but he kept playing along with her joke because it could make her happy.

Of course, he still disliked his title, but he would do anything as long as he could make her happy, including accepting his embarrassing title.

"You have to make me happy every day and be willing to die to protect me." She told him the truth when she said about the criteria to be her lover.

"Then doesn't that mean I have met the criteria to be your lover?" He could make her happy, and he also almost died a few times from protecting her, so their status should already be a couple based on her words.

"No. I still need to observe your personality more." She could no longer tease him if she did not deny his words, so she made another excuse.

"Then how hard is it to be your husband?" she was special to him and his predecessor, so he intended to marry her in the future.

"It's much more difficult." She spread her arms widely as she answered his question.

He pretended to be sad. "What a pity. I have the intention of marrying you in the future, but it seems like I have to drop that idea."

Scarlett pouted her lips.

Even though she knew he was only joking around, but she was still unhappy with his words.

"Hehe. Why are you making such a face?" he would have pinched her cheeks if he was not carrying her because her expression was so cute.

'She is so cute. Maybe I should tease her more often from now on.'

He added in his mind.

"I won't let you touch me tonight." She hit his shoulders gently after saying that.

"We will see that." He believed he could bed her later.

And what he had guessed was right because they had sex after setting up a tent and having dinner together.

"By the way, when will we reach Herora city?" he inquired.

He was currently lying on the folding bed with Scarlett, naked. After having sex for several minutes, they stopped because they were already satisfied.

"In three or four days." Scarlett, who was lying on his right side, responded.

"What? So Herora city is still far?" he sighed after hearing her words.

"This is your fault, Ace." Scarlett responded, "We would have reached Herora city if you did not go in the wrong direction."

He could not make an excuse because what she said was right.

Yes, he was the reason why they still had not reached Herora city!

"Hehe." She giggled cutely.
