Ace did not get her words. "What do you mean by saying you accept me? I don't get it. Can you explain it to me?"

He believed they did not make a bet earlier, so he had no idea what she was talking about.

"It's nothing. Let's find a way to Aquarin city now." she did not explain the meaning of her words.

'He is stronger than me, so I won't deny this feeling anymore.'

Yes, there was a reason why she challenged him to spar with her.

It was because she wanted to know whether he was stronger than her or not.

A special feeling blossomed within her when he took care of her, but she always denied it because she did not want to have a boyfriend who was weaker than her.

And because Ace had defeated her, she would accept her feelings now. This was the reason why she said she accepted him.

"Alright." Ace did not force her to tell him about it.

'Let me check my reward now.'

He looked at the notification.

[Ding! The quest is complete.]

[Ding! Host has received a Pressure card (1). Host can find it in the inventory.]

'Hmm?'

An unexpected happiness consumed him.

Previously, he thought it was a one-time use card, but he was wrong because it was a skill card.

In other words, he could use Pressure skill as much as he wanted!

It was like his Transformation Mask.

It would not disappear after using it once.

'Let me read the description now.'

When he used this skill, awakeners at the same rank would feel a tinge of fear. If they could not overcome the fear, they would be scared of him.

For awakeners lower than his rank, they would fall on their knees instantly, and great fear would emerge within them.

Their bodies would tremble continuously, and they wouldn't dare to do something to him. At that time, they would see him as a grim reaper. 

'No bad, not bad.'

He nodded his head in satisfaction.

"Why are you nodding your head?" Lieutenant Valeria asked curiously.

'Does he understand the meaning of my words?'

She added in her mind.

Ace shifted his gaze from his system to Lieutenant Valeria. "I think we can find Aquarin city faster if we fly because it's easier to find it from the sky."

She also agreed with his words.

'Does that mean he will carry me again?'

Her heart suddenly beat fast.

She suddenly remembered the time when she was injured because, at that time, he always carried her.

When she was about to say something to him, Ace carried her in a princess style before finally flying high in the sky.

Lieutenant Valeria did not say anything because she had accepted her feelings. She would let him do whatever he wanted because her heart belonged to him now.

After flying for several minutes, they saw an awakener surrounded by five magical beasts. 

At first, Ace did not want to help that person, but he changed his mind after Lieutenant Valeria asked him to help him.

To his surprise, that person was from Aquarin City, so he knew the way to Aquarin City.

----

Aquarin City, Stardust Hotel.

Ace and Lieutenant Valeria were currently talking with a receptionist. They had visited many hotels before, but their room was full.

Stardust Hotel was their last hope. They would sleep on the street if the room was full again.

"Mister, there is only one room available." The receptionist uttered, "However, our room is big, so it's enough for two people."

Ace did not agree immediately. "How is it? Should we take it?"

Before Lieutenant Valeria answered his question, the receptionist uttered, "Mister, I suggest you take this room. There will be a festival tomorrow, so I'm sure all the rooms in the other hotels are full by now."

Of course, Ace wanted to take it, but he would let Lieutenant Valeria decide it because he did not want her to think that he wanted to take advantage of the situation.

"Let's just take it." Lieutenant Valeria had slept with Ace in a cave and abandoned house, so she decided to take it.

The receptionist was pleased.

After Ace paid for the room, one of the employees escorted them to their room. Stardust Hotel was a luxurious hotel, so their room was big and luxurious.

"Please call us if you need something." After saying that, the employee left.

"This hotel is not bad." Ace sat on a couch.

Ace and Lieutenant Valeria were currently in the living room.

The living room was big, with a red sofa in the middle of it. There were two ocean paintings hanging on the wall, with a small tree placed in each corner of the room.

Beautiful ornaments made of wood were also displayed in the room. If he compared it with the hotel in his previous life, Stardust Hotel was 4 Star hotel. 

Lieutenant Valeria sat next to him.

Like Ace, she was also pleased. 

Now she would not feel cold at night, and she could sleep on a soft bed.

After talking with Ace for ten minutes, she rose to her feet. "Ace, I will take a shower first."

Ace did not say anything, but he nodded his head.

[God of Lust utters, boy, why don't you take a bath with her?]

The corner of his lips twitched.

[God of Lust says she has fallen for you, so I'm sure she won't refuse it.]

Ace did not believe God of Lust's words, so he decided to ignore him.

'System, activated Pressure card.'

He said in his head.

[Ding! Pressure Card activated.]

'It's a pity I can't try this skill immediately.'

Ace could only sit on a couch.

At that moment, he really wished there was a TV in the living room. However, he knew it was an impossible wish.

After they took a bath, they decided to take a walk around the city. That night, the duo had a great time because they could enjoy the beautiful city together. 

----

The following day, Ace and Lieutenant Valeria decided to stroll around the city again, but the city was filled with people.

The sound of laughter reverberated in the entire area.

Everyone was happy.

It was a festival day, so they had happy faces.

'It's crowded.'

Ace and Lieutenant Valeria saw many people in front of their hotel.

Even though it was crowded, it did not stop them from taking a walk; instead, they wanted to enjoy the city even more because it was a festival day.

"Let's go." Ace uttered.

"Un." Lieutenant Valeria nodded her head.

The duo began taking a walk around the city.

"It seems like we are lucky." They arrived at Aquarin City one day before the festival, so in his view, they were lucky.

"You are right." She agreed with his words. "We are lucky."

Like last night, the duo strolled around the city with happy faces. They talked, joked and laughed together.

However, something he was most worried about happened to them.

They got separated!

Even though they walked together earlier, but it was crowded, so they got separated.

'Where is she?'

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

Ace began looking for her.

'Lieutenant Valeria, where are you?'

He did not expect to be separated from her not long after leaving the hotel.

At the same time, Lieutenant Valeria was also looking for him.

But unlike him, she only stood in her position and skimmed her surroundings. She believed he had realized that she was not with him.

That was why she waited there because she was sure he would return to her soon.

And what she had guessed was right because she saw him running toward her shortly after that.

'Look at him! He is running with a worried face as if he has just lost something important to him.'

She smiled softly as she looked at Ace.

After Ace was in front of her, he uttered, "I finally found you, Lieutenant Valeria."

"Yes. You found me." She smiled as she said.

"Let's go." He held her right hand because he did not want to lose her again.

There were many people, so he was sure they would get separated again if he did not hold her hands.

Lieutenant Valeria's face blossomed into a smile.

'It seems like he is afraid of losing me.'

Even though she did not say it, but she liked it when he held her right hand.

As Ace was enjoying the festival with Lieutenant Valeria, a young elf licked her ice cream happily.

'Hmm?'

She immediately stopped her footsteps when she caught sight of Ace.

"Ace…" she shouted as she waved her hands.

Even though the distance between them was not far, but he did not hear her because it was crowded.

'Wait!'

She suddenly remembered something important.

'Shouldn't I inform vice leader and the others about this?'

Phoenix sword was in Ace's hands, so she should inform them.

'Yes. I should inform them now.'

With that idea in mind, she returned to her organization.

----

Aquarin City, Phoenix Organization headquarters. 

Phoenix organization was one of three big organizations in Aquarin City. It was a female organization with several races as its members, such as human and demi-human.

Even though it was a female organization, it was a powerful organization because it had a few awakeners at Master rank.

There were currently four demi-human in a huge living room; two female elves, one female fox and one female cat.

The cat had one tail, while the fox had three tails. If a man saw them, he would fall in love with them immediately because they were beautiful ladies.

"Vice leader, what should we do with that young man?" the demi-human cat inquired.
