Binding System - Chapter 315 They Are Cowards

315  They Are Cowards

Ace and Layla were currently heading to the Drizzle Hotel. They wanted to stay at the Drizzle Hotel because the locals said it was one of the best hotels in their city.

Even though they said the room at Drizzle Hotel was very expensive, the duo still wanted to stay in that hotel.

They were rich, so money was not a problem for them.

After walking for several minutes, they finally arrived at the Drizzle Hotel. Like what the locals said, the Drizzle Hotel was big and luxurious.

They were still in front of the hotel, yet they could already feel that the Drizzle Hotel was built for rich people only. “Let’s get inside.” Without waiting for his answer, Layla dragged Ace to the reception area.

Like usual, she walked while embracing his right arm as if they were already a couple.

When Ace and Layla were in front of her, the female receptionist said politely. “Hello, Miss, Mister. Do you want to stay in our hotel?”

“Give us one room. The best room.” Layla still embraced Ace’s right arm as if she did not want to be separated from him for even a second.

The female receptionist was stunned.

‘One room?’

She was shocked because it was usually the men who said that.

‘Does she wan-‘

The female receptionist was fascinated by Ace’s handsomeness.

She had seen many attractive men in her life, but none of them as handsome as Ace. It was as if Ace was not a human being but an angel who descended from the highest heaven.

“Ehm!” Layla pretended to clear her throat when the female receptionist was mesmerized by Ace’s handsome face.

The female receptionist instantly came to her senses. “Mister, are you sure you only want one room?”

Layla pouted her lips. “We are a married couple, and it’s our honeymoon, so why do we need more than one room?”

The female receptionist was shocked again.

‘Married couple? Honeymoon? Does that mean they are going to do it in our hotel?’

She knew many rich people stayed in the Drizzle Hotel to have some fun with their women because their rooms were equipped with soundproof magic.

Not only that, but the view from the Drizzle Hotel was also good. That was why the Drizzle Hotel was famous among the rich people.

“Please give us one room.” like usual, Ace smiled softly as he talked.

He did not clear the misunderstanding because he did not want to embarrass Layla.

“Understood, sir.” The female receptionist uttered.

After getting the key, Ace and Layla headed to their room.

“Why did you say we were a married couple?” he asked curiously. “You even said it was our honeymoon. Are you planning something again?”

“Because I want you to eat me in our room.” Layla gave an honest answer.

“Eat you?” he said in surprise.

Layla brought her face closer to his right ear and uttered, “Ace, all rooms in this hotel are equipped with soundproof magic. That means you can do whatever you want to me in this hotel room.” She then continued, “You can even have your way with me. I will be powerless in this hotel room.”

Because she kept saying that, he decided to grant her wish. “Then let’s walk faster. I can’t wait to eat you.”

“Hehe.” Layla walked as she giggled happily.

‘Succeed.’

She added in her mind.

As Ace and Layla were heading to their room with happy faces, Aidan and his subordinates were going home with angry faces.

They were furious because they failed to conquer Nightshire City. Even though Alicia only had six subordinates, she managed to protect Nightshire City.

Actually, they wanted to keep fighting, but their lord was heavily injured, so they decided to retreat.

“Cough…Cough…” Aidan, who was riding his horse, coughed up blood.

Aidan’s condition was very worrying.

His body was filled with injuries, and he also lost his left arm. After he gave the order to kill their enemies, Alicia and her subordinates kept attacking him.

At first, he was fine because his subordinates also protected him, but everything changed when Alicia and Elsie used powerful attacks at the same time.

Both of them were already at the Grandmaster rank, so his subordinates could not keep protecting him.

That was the reason why he was heavily injured and lost his left arm because Alicia and her subordinates kept attacking him.

“My lord…” Lara said worriedly.

“Cough…Cough…Cough…” Aidan coughed up blood again.

Not only that, but he also fell from his horse shortly after that.

Luckily, Lara could catch him on time, or else he would die from being trampled by many horses.

General Xavier instantly stopped his horse and uttered, “We will camp in this place.”

Even though he was also injured, he continued to carry out his duties as a general because his job was to look after Aidan and his subordinates. After setting up their tents, they began treating Aidan’s injuries. The healing mage did his best to treat Aidan’s injuries because Alselian City would be in a mess if he died.

“How is it?” General Xavier inquired.

“Don’t worry, general.” The healing mage responded, “Lord Aidan’s condition will get better after some rest.”

“Alright. You can leave now.” General Xavier uttered.

The healing mage immediately walked out of Aidan’s tent.

Nightshire City was enveloped by a powerful barrier.

Alicia and her subordinates set up a barrier right after Aidan and his underlings left.

She did not want the same thing to happen again, so she decided to set up a barrier because, with this, she could protect Nightshire City better and easier.

“I have treated their wounds and removed the poison in their bodies. But I don’t know when they will regain consciousness because they are heavily injured.” Alicia was currently standing in front of Scarlett and Valeria.

After setting up a tent, she immediately treated their injuries. They were poisoned because Lieutenant Joe and Captain Maya’s weapons were smeared with deadly poison.

“Thank you for helping us, Saintess Alicia.” Colonel Louie, who was behind her, spoke abruptly.

He expressed his gratitude because Nightshire City would have been destroyed, and they would have become Aidan’s slaves if she and her subordinates had not helped them. 16:23

“Don’t mention it.” Alicia answered.

As Alicia was talking with Colonel Louie, Kieran was treating the citizens and city guards. Even though he was also injured, he still put their lives first because he was a healing mage and they were his fellow citizens.

‘No! I can’t stop. I can’t stop.’

Kieran kept shaking his head.

He felt dizzy because he kept healing the citizens and city guards.

“Kieran, please take some rest first.” The blue-haired man uttered, “You have been treating them since earlier. You will faint if you keep using your healing magic.”

“It’s fine. I’m the best healing mage in this city, so I have to save everyone.” Kieran refused instantly. “But…” the blue-haired man still wanted Kieran to take some rest because it was not good for him.

At the same time, Captain Lia approached them. “Kieran…”

Kieran instantly stopped and turned his head toward the source of the sound. When he knew the beautiful voice belonged to Captain Lia, his eyes immediately turned into a heart shape.

“Captain Lia, are you hurt too? Let me treat your injuries now.” Captain Lia was a pretty lady, so Kieran’s pervert personality instantly came out.

Bang!

Captain Lia immediately hit the back side of his neck, knocking him out.

“Hmm?” the blue-haired man was stunned. “What…what are you doing, Captain Lia?”

“He needed some rest, so I knocked him out because he would keep treating everyone if I did not do this.” Captain Lia told him the reason why she knocked Kieran out.

“I see.” he uttered.

“Alright. I will put him on the bed first.” After saying that, she carried Kieran to the tent.

At the same time, many citizens voiced out their anger.

They were enraged because Alselian City suddenly attacked them. Because of them, many people were killed, and half of their city was destroyed again. “Fuck Alselian City!”

“I’m also angry at them!”

“Yes. Fuck them! I’m sure they dare to attack us because they know Ace is not in this city.”

“I think so too. They did not dare to attack us last month because Ace was with us.”

“They are cowards!”

“Yes, they are cowards!”

“If Ace had not gone to Ocaven Kingdom, he would have killed them all.”

“That’s right. They are nothing compared to him.”

“When Ace returns later, I will ask him to accompany me to Alselian City. I want to seek justice for my son. I want to kill that bastard lord.”

“Me too. I want to take revenge on them.”

At that moment, they hoped Ace would return soon because they wanted to seek justice for their families.
