As Ace was talking with Allan, a young woman in red armor rushed toward him from behind, trying to pierce his heart from behind.
Ace turned around when he felt a deadly aura approaching him.
'An enemy?'
He blocked her attack with his swords.
The young lady did a backflip when he threw a high kick. She was at Master rank, so she was a powerful awakener.
'System, analyze her power.'
The system instantly analyzed her.

'She is strong!'
Even though his enemy was powerful, there was not the slightest hint of fear in his eyes.
The reason was simple.
He was used to fighting against strong opponents!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe sparred with his father and grandpa countless times in his previous life, so he knew what to do if he fought against a powerful enemy.
'I will use that tactic.'
When he was about to attack Julia, something unexpected happened.
Allan rushed toward them and stood between them!
Ace and Julia were startled.
They did not expect him to do something dangerous like that.
He was only at Elite rank, so there was no way he could stop their attacks. He could even lose his life in the process.
"Julia, stop!" Allan shouted. "He is not enemy. He is the one who saved me!"
Julia stopped her movement. Ace also did the same thing.
"Tom was the one who tried to kidnap me. He would have kidnapped me if young master Cain had not saved me." Previously, Allan sent a fireworks signal, asking for help.
Julia attacked Ace because she thought he was kidnapping Allan.
'Hmm?'
She turned her head to look at Tom and the others.
'Did he kill them?'
She saw nine corpses on the ground.
She sheathed her sword and cupped her left hand to apologize. "I'm sorry for attacking you. I thought you were enemy."
Allan walked closer to Ace before finally speaking, "Young master Cain, please forgive her."
"It's fine." Ace sheathed his Phoenix sword.
Allan introduced Julia to Ace and Scarlett. He also told Julia what Tom had done to him earlier.
"Young master Allan. Are you alright?" five young people came into sight right after the voice rang out.
"I'm fine." Allan smiled when he saw his family's subordinates.
"Because your family's subordinates have arrived, we will leave now." Ace wanted to be alone with Scarlett, so he wanted to leave immediately.
He did not ask for a reward because he did not care about it.
What he wanted was only one thing.
He wanted to go to Herora city alone with Scarlett!
"Wait, young master Cain." Allan stopped them before finally taking a token out of his space ring. "Please accept this token."
Ace shifted his gaze from Allan to the token in his hands.
'A token?'
The gold-colored token had the words Wynn Trading on it.
Allan began explaining what kind of token it was. He said Wynn Trading was his family business and had branches in several cities in the Luvrela region.
Not only would he be treated preferentially, but he could also get a discount of up to thirty percent if he showed the gold token to the employees.
It could be said as a sign that he was a special person in Wynn Trading because not everyone could get gold tokens.
There were three types of tokens at Wynn Trading; bronze, silver and gold. The criteria for getting tokens from them was that they had to spend a lot of money at Wynn Trading.
Yes, the tokens they would get were based on how much money they spent at Wynn Trading!
"Alright. I will take this token." Ace would buy weapons after reaching Herora city, so he decided to accept the token.
After Ace and Scarlett disappeared into the distance, Julia inquired, "Young master Allan, was it the right move to give him a gold token? Why didn't you give him a bronze or silver token?
Allan turned his head to look at Julia. "Julia, they saved me. I would have given them more than gold token if I had something more important in my space ring."
"Young master Allan, is that person Rheanix?" one of Allan's subordinates inquired.
"I don't know." Ace did not attack Tom and the others earlier, so Allan did not know if Ace was Rheanix or not. "Forget it. Let's go home now."
"Understood." His subordinates responded in unison.
At the same time, Ace and Scarlett were walking hand in hand. Previously, she told him to stop holding her hands, but he refused.
He said he was her young master now, so she had to listen to his words because she was his bodyguard.
In short, he took advantage of the situation!
"I want you to take me flying into the sky." Scarlett uttered, "You can't refuse my wish, Ace."
"I'm your young master now. What kind of bodyguard would force her young master to grant her wish?" Ace made an excuse so that he could refuse her wish.
"But I'm your sugar mama." She responded, "You have no right to refuse my wish."
"I refu-" Ace stopped his words halfway when seven people suddenly stopped them.
'Bandit?'
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe let out a deep sigh.
"Hehe." Scarlett giggled happily when she saw his expression.
'He is unhappy.'
She behaved normally because these bandits were weak.
'Wait!'
She suddenly had an interesting idea.
She hid behind him before finally speaking, "Ace, there are bandits. I'm afraid."
Black lines formed on his forehead.
'Hey, what are you doing? Aren't you pretending to be my bodyguard? Why are you hiding behind me? You should beat them up now since it's your duty as my bodyguard.'
He also behaved normally because he knew they were weak based on their aura.
"Haha." The bandits laughed happily when they saw Scarlett's behavior.
They were even more sure that Scarlett and Ace were weak.
Rey, the leader of the bandit, uttered, "Give us your belongings. I'm in the good mood now, so I will let you guys go if you listen to my words."
Ace sighed again. "Leave! Don't bother us anymore because I don't want to kill people now."
Even though his enemies were seven people, he behaved normally because they were only at the Elite and Novice ranks.
Rey and his brothers were unhappy with Ace's response.
"Young man, don't test my patience because you will regret it later." Rey tried to scare Ace.
"Big brother, let's just attack him."
"That's right, big brother."
"Big brother, you are too kind. We can also get their stuff after killing them. Let's just stop this pointless talk."
"I agreed."
One by one, Rey's brothers asked him to attack Ace immediately.
Ace looked like the son of a rich family, so they could not wait to take his belongings. They believed he had a lot of money in his space ring.
Ace shook his head. "Sigh! Why can't you just listen to my advice?"
"Hehe." Scarlett giggled cutely behind him.
Because they did not listen to his advice, Ace wanted to beat them up quickly. "Come here. Let's end this quickly because I want to punish my lover."
Rey and his brothers were annoyed because Ace underestimated them.
"Beat him!" Rey shouted.
