Binding System

Chapter 114 Lisa And Daniel

After spending time at Herora Park, they returned to the hotel. However, Ace went out shortly after that to buy new clothes.

'Good! I have many clothes in my space ring now.'

He walked out of the clothing store with a smile on his face.

On his way to the inn, he saw many people eating snacks. For this reason, he decided to buy snacks and drinks.

He bought a lot of snacks and drinks because he wanted to give it to Scarlett and Layla too.

'Let me take a rest little bit.'

When he saw a public seating under a tree, Ace decided to take a rest.

"Aaa… I'm tired." He put the snacks and drinks on his left side before finally leaning his back against the tree.

At this moment, a blue-haired kid, around fourteen years old, had his eyes on him.

No!

He did not want to hurt Ace.

He only wanted to steal Ace's snacks and drinks!

Of course, Ace did not know about this because he was closing his eyes.

'We can eat today if I manage to steal these snacks and drinks.'

He skimmed his surroundings before finally walking closer to Ace.

As he was walking toward Ace carefully, he prayed to God.

He hoped God would continue to make Ace close his eyes because, with this, he could steal Ace's snacks and drinks smoothly.

'I got it. We can finally eat today.'

The kid ran away immediately after stealing Ace's snacks and drinks.

Ace instantly opened his eyes when he heard something. When he noticed someone stealing his snacks and drinks, he rose to his feet and skimmed his surroundings.

'That is the thief!'

He immediately used his Lightning Move skill.

Even though the thief was a kid, Ace still chased him because he was stealing his drinks and snacks.

In less than two seconds, Ace stood in front of the kid. "Kid, give me back my snacks and drink and I will forgi-"

Ace could not finish his words when he saw the kid's face.

'Isn't he one of the orphans from the Goddess Teressa's orphanage?'

He was stunned, causing him to only look at the kid.

[Several divine beings are shocked.]

[Three Gods are yelling at Goddess Teressa, asking her to explain everything.]

[Goddess Teressa closes her eyes.]

The kid ran away again when Ace only stared at him.

'I can't get caught or else we won't be able to eat again today.'

He tried his best to escape from Ace.

"Goddess Teressa, what's going on? Why did one of your orphans commit the act of stealing?" Ace suspected something was happening at the Goddess Teressa's orphanage, but this was beyond his expectations.

Goddess Teressa did not answer his question and kept closing her eyes. Of course, she knew what was going on because she always watched over her orphanages and temples.

Ace used his Lightning Move again, chasing the kid. In less than three seconds, he was in front of the kid again.

The kid fell on his butt when Ace suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Aren't you one of the orphans from the Goddess Teressa's orphanage?" like before, Ace did nothing to the kid and only threw a question at him.

The kid immediately covered his face with his hands and responded, "No. I'm not from Goddess Teressa's orphanage. You mistook me for someone else."

"No. I'm sure you are from the Goddess Teressa's orphanage because I saw you when I visited that place." Ace remembered him because he walked with the help of a crutch on that day.

"You got the wrong person." The kid did not admit it again.

When Ace was walking closer to the kid, a voice rang out. "Stop! Don't hurt big brother Daniel!"

Ace turned his head toward the source of the sound.

'Isn't she also one of the orphans from Goddess Teressa's orphanage?'

He saw a little girl about twelve years old, not far from him.

The little girl had red eyes and long blue hair. Even though she wore casual clothes, but it did not reduce her cuteness.

"Lisa, what are you doing here? Hurry up and leave this place." Daniel did not want to drag his younger sister into this mess, so he told her to run away.

But instead of running away, she walked toward them and stood in front of her elder brother, protecting him from Ace.

"Don't hurt my big brother." Lisa spread her arms widely. "If you want to hurt someone, you can hurt me."

Daniel rose to his feet and tried to protect his younger sister. "No. Don't hurt her. I will return your snacks and drinks, so don't hurt her."

"Don't worry. I won't hurt any of you guys." Ace was touched when they tried to protect each other.

"Really?" Lisa inquired.

"Yes." Ace nodded as he smiled. "But can you answer a few of my questions now?"

"Un." Lise nodded her head. "I will answer all your questions."

"Alright. I will ask my first question now. Are you from Goddess Teressa's orphanage?" actually, Ace had suspected the answer, but he wanted to hear the response from their mouths directly.

"Yes. We are from Goddess Teressa's orphanage." Lisa gave an honest answer.

"Yes." Danie nodded his head.

Ace then shifted his gaze from Lisa to Daniel. "You are Daniel, right? Why did you steal my drinks and snacks earlier?"

"Because…." Daniel could not answer Ace's question immediately.

Because her elder brother could not answer Ace's question immediately, Lisa uttered, "We haven't eaten anything since yesterday, so big brother decided to steal food for us."

"What?! You still haven't eaten anything since yesterday?" Ace said in surprise.

[Several divine being force Goddess Teressa to explain everything.]

"Yes." Daniel nodded his head again. "We are starving, so I decided to steal food for us."

"Don't blame big brother Daniel." Lisa uttered, "He decided to steal food because I could not endure my hunger."

Ace clenched his left fist.

He believed they gave Gracie a lot of money when they visited Goddess Teressa's Orphanage.

'Does that mean she took all the money? Was she lying to us?'

He suddenly suspected Gracie had taken all the money because Daniel and Lisa had not eaten anything since yesterday.

'Wait!'

He realized something.

"How about you two come to big brother's place now?" Ace asked as he smiled. "Big brother wants to ask more questions but this place is not the right place to do that."

Instead of answering his question, Lisa inquired, "Big brother, are you going to torture us?"

"Why do you think big brother will torture you?" Ace inquired, "Big brother is the follower of Goddess Teressa, so there is no way big brother will do that."

"Really?" Lisa inquired.

"No! We won't go to your place." Daniel did not believe Ace's words, so he refused instantly.

"If you come to big brother's place, big brother will let you eat delicious food and drinks later." Ace did not lie when he said this because he really didn't have any ill will towards them.

After hearing his words, Lisa's eyes shone brightly. "I will go to big brother's place."

"Lisa!" Daniel shouted.

"Big brother Daniel, I want to eat delicious food and drinks." It had been a long time since the last time she could eat delicious food and drinks, so she agreed to go to Ace's place.

Daniel could not say anything after hearing his younger sister's words. Of course, he also wanted to eat delicious food.

Even though Ace said he was the follower of Goddess Teressa, he still did not believe Ace completely.

"Are you sure you won't torture us later?" Daniel paid attention to Ace intently, trying to read Ace's mind.

Ace raised his right palm as high as his shoulders and uttered, "I promise with Goddess Teressa's name that I won't do anything bad later."

[Goddess Teressa says, you made a promise using my name, so I will send divine punishment if you break your word.]

Ace acted normally after reading the notification because he really had no intention of hurting Daniel and Lisa.

"Alright. We will go to your place." Daniel responded.

'From his expression and behavior, he doesn't seem like he is lying.'

He decided to believe Ace's words because Ace did not hurt him and his younger sister until now.

On their way to Crimson Sanctum Inn, Ace inquired, "What do you want to eat?"

"Grilled chicken." Lisa answered instantly. "I want grilled chicken and lemon tea."

Ace shifted his gaze from Lisa to Daniel. "What about you? What do you want to eat?"

"Any food is fine." Daniel was not a picky person, so he would eat any food.

"Then let's buy grilled chicken and lemon juices." Ace had a lot of money, so he decided to buy many food and drinks because they would eat with Scarlett and Layla too.

The trio walked to Crimson Sanctum Inn with many food and drinks in their hands.

Lisa and Daniel opened their mouths in surprise when they found out that Ace was staying in one of the most famous and luxurious inns.

They immediately headed to his room after stepping into Crimson Sanctum Inn.

Coincidently, Layla and Scarlett were heading to Ace's room. "He has returned."

Of course, they still did not know that Ace returned with Lisa and Daniel. They thought he was alone because he only knew Allan in Herora city.

"Ace, where did you go earlier?" Scarlett asked curiously.

"Ace, did you buy something for us?" Layla inquired.

'Hmm?'

They were shocked when they saw Lisa and Daniel.

'Who are they?'
