Binding System



"Alright. Let's talk seriously now. But before that…" Lexie spoke and paused for a second before she continued, "Are we going to talk in this position?"

At first, Ace wanted to let go of her hands and help her sit up immediately, but he changed his mind after remembering her seductive behavior. 

"Lady Lexie, how about we talk in your room? We can do some exercise as we talk. Don't you think this is a good idea?" Ace was a bad boy, so he decided to tease her.

Lexie's lips curled up into a smile. "That's actually a great idea. But it's a pity that my room is currently being cleaned by subordinates, so we can't use it today."

Of course, she was lying when she said this. 

However, she did not feel bad when she lied to him because she knew Ace only wanted to tease her. 

"How about we have a nice talk in my room tomorrow?" she joked again, "I will make sure you will be happy tomorrow."

"Sure." Even though he knew she was not serious with her words, he behaved as if he believed it.

"Ace, can you let go of my hands and help me sit up now?" she inquired.

He did not tease her anymore.

He immediately helped her sit up because he also wanted to have a serious conversation with her.

After talking seriously for more than thirty minutes, they went out to check the buildings. 

Ace was satisfied with the buildings, especially when he knew the distance between these two buildings was not far.

"Then let's go back and discuss the price." Lexie uttered. 

"Alright." He responded.

After stepping into a private room, the bargaining occurred. 

Ace tried to bid twenty percent less than the original price, but Lexie did not agree with the price he offered.

Of course, he did not give up and kept bargaining.

However, the result was the same.

Lexie refused his price!

"Lady Lexie, 3,000 gold coins is too expensive." Even though he had more than one hundred thousand gold coins, he still bargained. "How about 2,500 gold coins? I will buy it immediately if you agree with my price."

Like before, she refused again, "Ace, these two buildings are not small. The first one is big and has three floors."

She then continued, "While the second building only has two floors, but it's very big. It also has a huge backyard and basement. 3,000 gold coins for these two buildings are already cheap. I'd definitely charge more if that wasn't you."

Ace touched his chin.

'Should I just buy it?'

Even though he had more than one hundred thousand gold coins in his space ring, he still wanted to buy it at a cheaper price because 3,000 gold coins was a lot of money.

[God of Sea utters, just buy it. Don't you have a lot of money?]

[God of Lust says, how about pressing her under you? I'm sure she will lower the price later.]

"How about this? If you help me get a purple lotus, I will reduce the price to 2,500 gold coins." Actually, this was the reason why she kept refusing his price. 

"Purple lotus?" Ace was curious as to why she wanted a purple lotus.

"Yes. I need purple lotus to save my niece." She told him that her niece was poisoned when they traveled to another city.

And that poison was not an ordinary one.

It was deadly poison because it was from the seven-colored water snake. 

"The purple lotus is the last ingredient for making the antidote, but…" she did not finish her words and sighed.

"But what?" he asked curiously.

"I found a purple lotus in Framingburns forest four days ago, but it's guarded by Yin-Yang puma." She said the Yin-Yang puma was very powerful.

Even though it was still at the 3-star, its strength was already close to that of a 4-star magical beast.I think you should take a look at

She and her subordinates had fought it before, but they failed to kill the puma. She even lost a few of her subordinates when they fought the puma.

This was the reason why she wanted a powerful awakener to help her get the purple lotus because the result would be the same if she did not bring a powerful awakener with her.

"So, does that mean you want me to fight the puma and get the purple lotus for you?" he began to understand everything now.

"Yes." She gave an honest answer, "But you won't be fighting the puma alone. I will help you later."

"I see." Ace finally understood everything.

'She is indeed a smart lady.'

He finally knew why she always refused the price he offered.

"So, do you accept my condition?" she hoped he would accept her condition because Ace was a powerful awakener.

"Sure. I will help you kill the puma and get the purple lotus." Even though the puma was strong, he believed they could get the purple lotus because Lexie would help him.

"Great!" Lexie smiled happily.

"You are a smart person, lady Lexie." He stated.

"Why did you suddenly praise me?" she did not know why he suddenly praised her.

"You refused the price I offered because you wanted me to help you get the purple lotus, right?" he told her the reason why he suddenly praised her.

Lexie's lips curled up into a smile. "You are not angry, right?"

"No." he was not mad at her because this sort of thing often happened in business. 

She brought her face closer to his right ear before finally whispering. "Not only will I reduce the price to 2,500 gold coins, but I will also give you a reward if we manage to get the purple lotus, so let's do our best."

"I hope you won't take back your word later." He stated.

"I always keep my word." She responded.

After talking for another thirty minutes, Ace left.

When Ace left her place, she remained in a private room.

A soft smile spread across her face when she saw Ace giving money to street children.

Ace and the street children were in front of her place, so she could see them clearly because she was standing behind a window.

'Even though he has lost his memory, he is still kind to street children.'

At this moment, she suddenly remembered the time when Ace gave food and drink to street children.

Ace's predecessor liked helping people in need, and she saw his good deeds many times.

He even helped her twice in the past.

At that time, her business partners tried to trap and poison her, but their plan failed because Ace told her about their evil plan.

These were the reasons why he was an amazing person in her eyes because he had a good heart.

'Maybe he can become a Rheanix because heaven knows he is a good person.'

She believed that heaven chose him to become a Rheanix because he had a good heart.

'But I did not know he was naughty too.'

Her face blossomed into a smile after she touched her lips and remembered what he had done to her a few minutes ago.

'Well, he is a healthy young man, so I think it's normal for him to become a little naughty.'

After Ace disappeared into the distance, she turned around and headed to her office.

'I just hope he can help me get the purple lotus later.'
