'Am I going to die today?'
Mia felt a fear that could not be described in words.
She had fought many awakeners and seen many skills, but it was her first time seeing a skill as powerful and terrifying as Ace's skill.
Due to how scary it was, she, an awakener at Master rank, even could not move her body.
'It seems like today is the day I will die.'
She accepted her fate.
Ace's skill even destroyed her attack easily, so she knew that she could not escape from the giant golden dragon.
"Mia!" Silvia and the others shouted worriedly.
They knew what would happen if the giant golden dragon hit her. That was why they shouted worriedly like that.
Mia could hear their screams.
However, she did not say anything and only looked at them.
Of course, she wanted to avoid Ace's attack, but her body no longer listened to her. This was the reason why she only stared at them.
"Mia…" they shouted again.
[God of Lust utters, boy, why did you use a powerful attack?]
[God of Wind says, save her!]
[God of Sea shakes his head.]
[God of Mountain speaks, girl, avoid it or else you will die.]
Most divine beings did not want Mia to die because she was a member of the Phoenix organization.
Ace was shocked when Mia did not do anything.
Previously, he thought she had the skills to escape or avoid his attack, but he was wrong because she only stared at the golden dragon.
'I have to save her!'
He instantly used the Lightning Move skill.
'I hope I can make it.'
Mia would die or be heavily injured if she got hit by his attack, so he tried his best to save her.
Boom!
A thunderous sound reverberated in the entire area.
"Mia!" they shouted worriedly again.
They did not know whether Mia was alive or not because the veil of dust covered the entire practice ring.
[Several divine beings let out a sigh of relief.]
[God of Wing says, luckily, you managed to save her.]
Ace was currently carrying Mia in a princess style.
He felt relieved when he managed to save her.
'Thank god!'
He suddenly felt bad for using a powerful attack.
At this moment, Mia was looking at Ace intently.
Even though he was the reason why she almost died, her heart beat fast when he saved her, especially when he carried her in a princess style.
"Thank you for saving me." Mia tried her best to hide her shyness.
Ace smiled at her before finally speaking, "Sorry for scaring you."
"It's fine." She did not blame him for using a powerful skill because they were sparring, and he needed to defeat her if he wanted to keep the Phoenix sword.
After the veil of dust disappeared, everyone could see what was going on.
"Thank god!" they were relieved when they saw Mia in Ace's arms.
Mia looked at everyone before returning her attention to Ace. "Ace, can you put me down now?"
There were three reasons why she asked him to put her down immediately.
First, she was shy.
Everyone was looking at them, so she felt shy because she was currently being carried by Ace in a princess style.
Second, her heart was beating fast.
Even though Ace was the reason why she almost died, but her heart still beat fast when he saved her.
She was a lady, so she could not control her heart when a young man saved her in a life-and-death situation.
And last, she did not want him to see her blushing face.
Being carried by an attractive young man like Ace was enough to make her blush, especially when everyone was looking at them.
These were the reasons why she asked him to put her down immediately because she did not want him to realize it.
"Sure." Ace, who did not realize it, put her down immediately.
To his surprise, the members of the Phoenix organization praised his actions.
"Well done, Ace!"
"Nice!"
"You did the right thing, Ace!"
"As expected of a candidate to be our leader. Good job!"
"I acknowledge him as a candidate to be our leader now because he cares about Mia. I'm sure he will be a good leader for us."
"That's right. If he cares about Mia, then he will care about us!"
"Ace, good job!"
"Good job!"
Previously, most of them were unwilling to acknowledge him as their leader's successor, but they changed their minds after seeing him save Mia.
Of course, they did not blame him for using a powerful skill because he sparred with Mia earlier.
Viviya immediately jumped into the practice ring and uttered, "The first fight is over. The winner is Ace!"
"Ace, do you need to rest, or do you want to go straight to the second fight?" Silvia inquired.
"I will go straight to the second fight." Ace only had minor injuries, so he could fight immediately.
"Alright." After saying that, Silvia looked at Renea. "Renea, it's your turn now."
Renea walked toward the practice ring while looking at Ace and smiling softly.
When she was in the center of the fight zone, Renea uttered, "Thank you for saving Mia, Ace."
"You don't need to thank me because I also don't want to hurt her." Ace smiled as he responded.
"I'm glad to hear it." Renea uttered, "As you already know, my name is Renea. I'm a mage and a member of the nine-tailed fox."
Renea was not an ordinary mage because she could use magic without chanting.
A unique magician!
Yes, Renea was a unique magician like Ace and Evelyn.
Even though she belonged to the nine-tailed fox race, Goddess Teressa still chose her and let her become a unique magician because she had a talent for magic.
"My name is Ace." After saying that, Ace stored the Phoenix sword in his space ring.
Renea was shocked by this.
'Why did he store the Phoenix sword in his space ring?'
She did not know that Ace was also a mage, so she was stunned when Ace suddenly stored the Phoenix sword in his space ring.
Not only Renea but Silvia and the others were also stunned. They wanted to know why he suddenly stored the Phoenix sword in his space ring.
'He is not giving up, right?'
These were the words that appeared in their minds.
Because Renea could not hold back the curiosity in her heart, she inquired, "Ace, why did you store the Phoenix sword in your space ring?"
"You are a mage, so I will fight you as a mage," Ace told her the reason why he suddenly stored the Phoenix sword in his space ring.
*Silence.
The entire area turned into a dead silence.
They knew there were special people who were loved by the heavens, but they never expected that Ace was one of them.
They thought Ace was only a powerful awakener. It never crossed their minds that Ace was someone who was loved by the heavens.
At that time, only one person was still calm, and that person was Valeria, Ace's girlfriend.
Valeria knew that Ace was also a mage, so she was not surprised when he revealed his real identity.
'They are stunned.'
She suddenly remembered the time when Ace revealed his identity as a Rheanix.
At that time, everyone was shocked and terrified.
They were shocked because Ace was actually a Rheanix, and they were scared because, at that time, he used powerful magic to show everyone that he was a Rheanix.
This was the reason why she could understand their feelings.
"He is a Rheanix?" Silvia broke the silence.
She was not surprised because she could see a Rheanix. She was startled because a candidate to be their leader was a Rheanix.
'Should I accept him as our leader right away?'
She suddenly wanted to accept him as their leader immediately.
Ace was a Rheanix, someone who was loved by the heavens. As a Rheanix, he was destined to stand at the top of the hierarchy.
In other words, the possibility of them becoming a top organization was very high if he became their leader.
'What should I do? What should I do?'
She said the same words over and over again in her head as if she were chanting a magic spell.
Viviya, Mia and Leena did not say anything and only stared at Ace. They had never seen a Rheanix before, so they were still in a state of shock.
"What?! He is a Rheanix?!"
"Does that mean he is someone loved by the heavens?"
"Is this the reason why he can reach Master rank at a young age?"
"Is this the reason why he can defeat Mia?"
"Then isn't it better to make him our leader immediately?"
"That's right. I think it's better to make him our leader right away."
"I agreed. Ace is someone loved by the heavens. Our organization would stand at the top if he were our leader."
"I want him to be our leader now."
"Me too."
"Me too."
Chatters erupted in the arena.
Members of the Phoenix organization wanted Ace to become their leader immediately after discovering he was a Rheanix.
They no longer even cared about his gender because all they wanted was for their organization to stand at the top.
They did not want the other factions to look down on them.
They did not want to be bullied by other organizations.
What they wanted was to make other organizations fear them.
This was the reason why they wanted to make Ace their leader immediately.
Renea, who was standing in front of him, uttered, "You are a Rheanix?!"
