Binding System

Scarlett was not surprised by Allan's question because previously, she said she had been living with Ace for five years.

'Hehe. Should I reveal the truth about our relationship?'

She suddenly wanted to tell Allan that she was Ace's sugar mama because Allan was from a different city.

But before Scarlett could say anything, Ace wrapped his right arm around her slender waist and pulled her closer to him.

"Yes. She is my girlfriend." Ace did something like this because he did not want her to say she was his sugar mama.

'I can't let her ruin my reputation.'

He was fine if they were alone, but he would not let her say it if they were in front of other people.

"I see." After saying that, Allan shifted his gaze from Scarlett to Layla. "Then she is…."

"She is Sca-" before Ace had finished his words, he was interrupted by Layla.

"I'm his sugar baby." Layla said jokingly.

She dared to joke around because Allan was from a different city, and she planned to break up with her boyfriend later.

"Sugar baby?" the corner of Allan's lips twitched. "Brother Ace, you keep giving me big surprises since earlier."

Ace was at a loss for words after hearing Layla's words.

"By the way, did brother Ace come to my family business to buy something?" Allan asked curiously.

"Young master Allan, mister Ace just sold 210 weapons and 175 armors at Unique and Rare ranks." The mature lady spoke abruptly.

Allan was taken aback by her words.

'210 weapons and 175 armors at Unique and Rare ranks?'

He did not expect this.

"I came to your family business with two purposes." Ace spoke and paused for a second before he continued. "The first is to sell unused weapons and armor in my space ring and the last is to buy skill and spell books."

"What kind of spell book and skill book do you want to buy?" Allan threw another question at Ace.

"To be honest, I want to check all the spell books and skill books first. If I'm interested in something, I will buy it immediately." Ace did not know what to buy, so he wanted to check all the spell and skill books first.

"Do you want to check it now?" Allan inquired.

"Sure!" Ace responded instantly.

They immediately walked out of a private room and headed to the spell books area.

However, only Tier 1 to Tier 3 spell books were in that place, and none of them caught Ace's attention.

For this reason, they went straight to the skill books area. Like in the spell books area, there were only low-level skills.

Even though many skill books were displayed, but all of them were skill books at Common and Uncommon ranks.

Since Ace did not want his visit to the Wynn trading house to be in vain, he decided to buy one skill book.

He decided to buy the Blazing Arrow skill book. The Blazing Arrow skill was a skill to add fire energy to arrows, causing the arrows to be filled with fire.

When Allan saw Ace sighing, he immediately uttered, "Brother Ace, we will be auctioning one spell book at Tier 5 and one skill book at Rare Rank in two hours. If you are interested, I will prepare a special room for you now."

Ace was pleasantly surprised after hearing Allan's words.

'One spell book at Tier 5 and one skill book at Rare rank?'

Was he interested in it?

Of course!

He always relied on secret techniques from his previous life to kill his enemies until now, so he would really like to have powerful magic and skill.

However, he hid his surprised feelings and acted normally. "Brother Allan, can you tell me about it?"

Wynn trading house was his family's business, so Ace was sure Allan knew about the skill and spell books that were up for auction.

Allan was delighted when Ace called him brother. "Actually, I'm not allowed to reveal this information, but I will make an exception for you, brother Ace."

He started to tell Ace about the skill book and spell book that would be auctioned later.

After hearing Allan's explanation, Ace responded, "Brother Allan, I have to trouble you to prepare a place for us later."

The meaning of his words was clear.

He wanted to participate in the auction!

After nodding his head, Allan looked at the mature lady on his right side. "Go and prepare a room for my brother."

"Understood, young master." The mature lady left to prepare a room for Ace and the others.

"Brother Ace, the auction will be held in two hours, so how about we return to the private room and chat there?" Allan wanted to strengthen their friendship, so he wanted to keep chatting with Ace and the others.

"Good idea!" Ace agreed instantly.

Ace and the others then returned to the private room.

Time went by quickly, and without realizing it, two hours had passed. Ace and the others were currently heading to the auction area.

The auction area was located on the second and third floors. However, Ace and the others stopped on the third floor because they were VIP guests.

Yes, the VIP guests and ordinary guests had different areas!

The second floor was for ordinary guests, while the third floor was for VIP guests.

Ordinary guests only sat on wooden chairs, while VIP guests could sit on soft sofas. Ordinary guests sat close to one another, while VIP guests had their own room.

Not only that, but the VIP guests also got free beverages. These were the privileges of VIP guests.

Of course, it was difficult to become VIP guests because they needed to have a golden token to become VIP guests.

In other words, they had to spend a lot of money first before they could become VIP guests!

Wynn trading house did not care about status.

Even if they had high status, they would not be able to become VIP guests if they never spent money at Wynn trading house because all they cared about was money.

Of course, Ace was in a special case because he had saved Allan's life and got a golden token from Allan, so he could become a VIP guest instantly.

After Ace and the others sat on the couch, Allan uttered, "Brother Ace, I can't accompany you during the auction, so I will take my leave now."

"Alright." Ace did not force Allan to accompany him because he knew the rules.

After all, one of his grandpa's women had an auction house, so he knew the rules of an auction house.

Ace then skimmed his surroundings, checking the other VIP guests. He could see the other VIP guests as nothing was blocking his view.

Actually, they could have blocked the view of their room by covering their room with red curtains, but none of the VIPs had done so.

Layla grabbed one of the beverages in the ice bucket and poured it into her glass. "As expected of Wynn trading house, the wine is good!"

"Is that so?" Scarlett suddenly wanted to taste the wine too. "Yes. Wine tastes great! Ace, try it."

Layla poured wine into an empty glass and gave it to Ace. "Here, try it!"

"Thank you, beautiful lady." After saying that, Ace drank the wine.

'It's good.'

He added in his head.

As Ace was enjoying the good wine, three subordinates of the Hudson family entered the Wynn trading house.
