Binding System

"You are joking, right?" Xiao Ming knew nothing about it because he could not see all of his predecessor's memories.

"I'm dead serious right now." Kieran responded instantly. "I'm sure everyone in this city already know about this."

Xiao Ming wanted to cry but had no tears.

'I, the grandson of the Ruler, am a toy boy?! My predecessor, you are so annoying!'

He blamed his predecessor again.

He did not mind if his lover was a MILF because he loved MILF.

No MILF, no life!

These were the words his grandfather used to say to him.

Actually, his grandfather was the reason why he loved MILF because his grandpa had many women, and most of them were MILFs.

This was the reason why he also loved MILF.

However, being a toy boy was a big no for him because it hurt his pride. Sure, his sugar mama was a beautiful and kind MILF, but his status was still a toy boy.

He was a candidate to be the Ruler in his previous life, so he was unhappy with his current title.

Evelyn shifted her gaze from Kieran to Xiao Ming. "Are you really a toy boy?"

She was aware of his attractiveness, but he had never behaved like a toy boy since they met.

This was the reason why she wanted to make sure if Kieran was telling the truth or not. Of course, she hoped he was not a toy boy.

Xiao Ming did not reply immediately because he had no idea how to answer her question.

"Actually, he is not the city mistress' toy boy." Kieran began explaining everything.

Five years ago, more than a hundred magical beasts suddenly appeared and attacked the city.

Xiao Ming's father died protecting the city, and the city mistress decided to take care of him from then on.

The city mistress was an attractive mature lady, so many men tried to court her, but she never put them in her eyes.

She only cared about one person, and that person was none other than Ace.

"So those guys were the reason why everyone started calling me a toy boy, huh?" Xiao Ming finally knew the reason why he got the title of a toy boy.

It was because those men were jealous of him!

They were jealous because he could live with the beautiful city mistress. He suddenly felt guilty for misunderstanding his predecessor.

"I see. So, he is not a toy boy and just living with her." Evelyn let out a sigh of relief.

She did not know why she felt as if a heavy weight had been lifted off her shoulders after hearing Kieran's explanation.

"So why is everyone starting to call me a toy boy too?" Xiao Ming asked curiously.

"Because it's fun." Kieran gave an honest answer. "You are handsome and living with the beautiful city mistress, so you are like a toy boy in their eyes."

The corner of Xiao Ming's lips twitched.

'Just because it's fun?!'

He suddenly wanted to slap their faces.

"It seems like I have to change my nickname quickly." He did not want everyone to keep calling him a toy boy, so he desired to change his title quickly.

"And how do you plan to do that?" Kieran inquired.

"Perhaps I should start by becoming the strongest person in this city." Xiao Ming gave a random answer.

"Strongest person in this city?! Hahaha." Kieran could not help but burst into waves of laughter after hearing his remarks. "Everyone in this city know that you only have a handsome face. How do you plan to become the strongest person in the city if you can't even kill the weakest magical beast?"

Xiao Ming cursed venomously in his heart.

'Damn! He is underestimating me!'

He wanted to get rid of his nickname even more now.

To his surprise, Evelyn suddenly touched his right shoulder. "You can do that. I'm sure you can change your nickname quickly."

Xiao Ming was the most genius person she had ever met, so she believed he could change his nickname in a short amount of time.

"Un." Xiao Ming nodded his head. "Can you tell me about this city now?"

"About Nightshire city?" Kieran began giving a short explanation.

In this world, there was one continent, and its name was the Vlizica continent. The Vlizica continent was divided into four regions; east, west, north, and south.

Each region had its name. The East region was called Niland, while the West region was Sheozia.

Everyone called the North region Luvrela and the south region as Flugux. Nightshire city was one of the small cities located in Luvrela.

Even though it was a small city, but it was famous because Nightshire city was ten percent of the Juwi fruit production in the Luvrela region.

"Only that?" Xiao Ming shouted, "What about the strong families in Nightshire city? Is there a trading alliance or something like that?"

Kieran suddenly rose to his feet. "Ah shit! I forgot I have to treat my patients now."

"Hey, don't leave! You still haven't given me a useful information." Xiao Ming shouted.

"I will tell you about it next time." Kieran left.

Xiao Ming turned his head to look at Evelyn. "Big sister, do you kno-"

Before he had finished his words, Evelyn spoke, "I don't know anything about this city because this is my first time coming to this city."

He could only sigh.

Evelyn retrieved a beast core from her space ring and gave it to him. "Ren, take this beast core."

Yes, it was the beast core she got after killing the Winged Tiger. There was a reason why she decided to give the core beast to him.

She wanted him to get stronger quickly!

With this, he could get rid of his nickname as a toy boy immediately because she hated his title.

Xiao Ming did not take the beast core instantly. "Big sister, why are you giving me this beast core?"

"I only want you to get stronger quickly. Didn't you say you wanted to become stronger than me and protect me?" she did not reveal the truth because she was too shy to say it. "And this beast core is from the Winged Tiger, so you have the right to take this."

He took the beast core before smiling softly. "Thank you, big sister. Don't worry. I won't forget my promise for the rest of my life."

"Then I will go to my room now." After saying that, she turned around and walked out of his room.

'Ren, you better get stronger quickly.'

She added in her mind.

Xiao Ming wasted no time and instantly absorbed the energy in the beast core to his awakening points.

It was the beast core of the Winged Tiger, so a lot of energy was stored in it. After all, the Winged Tiger was a 3-star magical beast.

But even so, he could not absorb all the energy in the beast core quickly because his talent was only as good as a grade D talent.

It would take four days for him to absorb all the energy in the beast core because it was a 3-star magical beast core.

If it were from a 2-star magical beast core, he could absorb all the energy faster because there was less energy in the 2-star magical beast core.

The energy in the beast core depended on how strong the magical beast was. The stronger the magical beast, the more energy in the beast core.

This was the reason why the 3-star magical beast core had more energy than the 2-star magical beast core.

'I should not waste my time.'

He absorbed the energy in the beast core again.

Time went by quickly, and without realizing it, six days had passed since Evelyn gave him the beast core.

At this moment, Xiao Ming was lying on the bed, looking at the system panel.

He smiled happily when he saw his status window.

'As I thought, I could level up many times from 3-star magical beast core.'

Of course, he knew it was because his levels were still low.

Previously, he wavered if he should increase his level or system level. After thinking for several minutes, he decided to increase his level.

The reason was simple.

He could kill a stronger magical beast after leveling up!

With this, he could start killing magical beasts to get their cores.

If he chose to increase the system level, it would not benefit him much because he would still be weak.

'Now it's time to spend time with big sister Evelyn.'

With that idea in mind, he got out of bed and headed to her room.

At the same time, a red-haired woman entered Evelyn's room through the windows.

She knelt on one knee in front of Evelyn before finally speaking, "Miss, palace mistress orders you to return immediately."

"Tell my master that I will return tomorrow or the day after tomorrow." Actually, Evelyn still wanted to be with Xiao Ming, but she knew that she could not do that.

"Understood." After saying that, the red-haired woman left through the windows.

"Big sister, are you there?" Xiao Ming asked as he knocked on the door.

After opening the door, Evelyn inquired, "What's wrong?"

"Let's go for a walk." Xiao Ming uttered.

"Alright." She agreed instantly.

----

Inside a big and luxurious house, a mature lady about thirty-five years old was sitting on the couch alone.

She was extremely alluring to the max. Her waist was as lithe as a water snake, and she was able to mesmerize people with a single glance.

She had a charming, misty look in her red eyes, a fine nose, and soft pink lips. Her red hair descended to her waist like a waterfall, and her white skin glistened like luster of beautiful jade.

She gave off a feeling of absolute charm, to the point any man would not be able to take their eyes off her after seeing her.

That attractive lady was none other than Scarlett Rivera, the city mistress of Nightshire city.

'When will he go home?'

She did not know Ace had passed away and Xiao Ming had taken over his body.

Of course, she knew where he was because her subordinates had informed her of his whereabouts a few days ago.

She just did not expect him to continue staying at Maniacal Shrub Inn.

'I will go meet him now.'

With that idea in mind, she traveled to Maniacal Shrub Inn.

At the same time, Xiao Ming and Evelyn were on their way to Maniacal Shrub Inn.

Previously, they went to many places. They decided to return to the inn because it was almost dark.

When they were about to enter the Maniacal Shrub Inn, a voice suddenly rang out. "Ace!"

Yes, that voice belonged to the city mistress of the Nightshire city, Scarlett Rivera.
