Binding System

As Ace was beating up Michael and Ariel, Aya ordered her mount to fly toward Finley. Asher and the others held their weapons firmer when they caught sight of her.

But when she was close to them, they dropped their weapons one by one. They suddenly forgot about their task and rushed toward her with heart-shaped eyes.

Charm!

Aya used her innate ability after landing on the ground.

Innate ability was a blessing that one had right from birth. The nine-tailed fox race was famous for having charm as an innate ability.

Their innate ability was different than ordinary charm skills.

It could even charm someone stronger than them because this ability manipulated someone's mind and heart.

"Beautiful lady, please marry me."

"My lady, I'm willing to follow you for the rest of my life."

"Oh, my goddess. I will protect your forever."

"You are my light, my lady."

They were charmed by her, so they could not control themselves anymore.

Aya's lips curled up into a smile when she saw them. "Everyone, I have an enemy who always cause trouble for me. I wonder if one of you are willing to help me deal with him."

"My lady, I'm willing to help you."

"Me too."

"My lady, I will do anything for you."

"Who dare cause trouble for her, my lady? I will teach him a lesson later."

"My lady, tell me who that person is? I will kill that person immediately."

At that moment, Aya was already like their goddess, so they agreed to help her without thinking twice.

They were even willing to kill their brothers and sisters because their minds were filled with her.

Aya pointed her right index finger at Finley and answered, "It's him! He is my enemy."

They instantly turned around and looked at Finley angrily.

"How dare you cause trouble to my lady?!" even though they still remembered who Finley was, they were still furious at him.

Finley, who noticed something was wrong, opened his eyes slowly.

'Hmm?'

He was startled when he saw his people looking at him angrily.

'What's going on?'

He was focused on maintaining his blessing earlier, so he did not know what was happening in every part of the battlefield.

'Someone from the nine-tailed fox race?'

He saw Aya several meters from him.

'Did she use charm on them?'

He knew that people from the nine-tailed fox race had an innate ability, so he suspected that she used charm on his subordinates.

When Aya saw Finley opening his eyes, she immediately spoke, "Everyone, please kill him for me."

Finley's face darkened.

He could lose his life if he did not fight back, but his blessing would disappear if he fought them.

'What should I do now?'

It was related to his life and winning the war, so he could not make up his mind immediately.

"How dare you cause trouble to my lady?! Die!" Finley's subordinates grabbed their weapons and raised it, trying to kill him.

After thinking for several seconds, Finley decided to fight them.

He immediately rose to his feet before finally taking a long step back and attacking his subordinates.

"Tch! Useless subordinates!" He flew into the sky before finally using his magic.

Right after he attacked his subordinates, his blessing was gone.

His subordinates, who fought magical beasts, were stunned when the orange armor suddenly disappeared.

"What's going on? Why did the armor suddenly disappear?"

"My wounds also don't heal on their own."

"Did something happen to His Majesty?"

"Oh, no! The blessing is gone."

Finley's subordinates were confused and panicked when his blessing disappeared.

Their enemies had much greater numbers, so they were immediately at a disadvantage once the blessing was gone.

"Aaaggghh…"

"Aaaggghh…"

"Aaaggghh…"

Their dying screams reverberated in the entire area.

Finley, who was floating in the sky, skimmed his surroundings.

'Damn it! Fuck!'

He was about to explode with rage when he saw his subordinates were getting killed by Ace's followers.

"He is floating in the sky."

"Use long-range attacks."

"Kill him!"

"He has caused trouble to our goddess. We must kill him now."

"KILL HIM!"

Finley's subordinates were still under Aya's charm, so they kept trying to kill him.

"Useless subordinates, die!" Finley could not tolerate it anymore and used lightning balls to attack them.

When Aya saw Finley's subordinates dying on the ground, she walked toward her mount and spoke, "It seems like I have to step in now."

Like before, Aya used her innate ability again.

However, Finley was only charmed for ten seconds because he had a strong mind.

"Oh? You can break free from my charm? Then it seems like I need to use my fist now." after saying that, she used her skill to attack Finley.

As she was fighting Finley in the sky, Ace was beating up Ariel and Michael.

Ariel and Michael were currently heavily injured.

Their faces were full of brushes, and blood could be seen on their armors.

Even though they could still stand up, they were no longer able to fight. They even could not raise their weapons anymore.

Without Finley's blessing, they could not do much because Ace was a powerful dragon.

"Hmm? Why didn't you say something now?" Ace was currently gripping Ariel and Michael.

They always said they would kill him, but now, they did not say anything as if they were mute.

"You…damn…beast." Michael coughed up blood again.

"Did you say something? I can't hear it." Ace gripped Michael's body harder to the point that his ribs broke into pieces.

"Cough…" Michael coughed up blood before he finally died.

"Ops! I gripped him too hard." Ace then shifted his gaze to Ariel. "It seems like you don't want to say anything to me. Then I will kill you immediately because I'm in the good mood."

Like what he had done to Michael, Ace squeezed Ariel's body hard.

At the same time, Fyre and the others got beaten up by Jalen. Of course, Jalen was also injured.

However, he could still fight while Fyre and the others were lying on the ground with blood all over their bodies.

"I gave you a chance to run away earlier, but you did not take it." Jalen was pleased after seeing their pitiful condition. "Now, I will take your lowly life."

When Jalen was about to use his skill, Ace threw Ariel and Michael's corpses at him.

Jalen changed his mind and took a step back to avoid it.

At first, he thought someone threw stones at him, but he knew he was wrong when he saw Michael and Ariel's corpses on the ground.

"Michael, Ariel?" Jalen said in surprise.

Ace did not attack Jalen immediately; instead, he walked toward Fyre and the others.

"I warned you guys not to fight him earlier. Do you regret your decision now?" Ace inquired.

"What are you talking about, boss? I know I'm heavily injured now, but I don't regret it because fighting him is exciting." Fyre did not mind dying in battle because warriors only died on the battlefield.

"Yes. We don't regret it." Hyzi and the others said in unison.

Ace looked at them for three seconds before finally walking toward Jalen.

"Your friends are already dead. Now it's your turn." Ace uttered.
