"...." Zera was clearly puzzled as she didn't understand the meaning of the words of Ace.
"I've been stuttering for a while because your beauty is beyond compare. I've been amazed by you from the very start when I decided to have some fun with you until now! In fact, I'm not that frightened to you it just that I'm shocked by your heaven defying beauty!" Ace explanation was exaggerated. In fact, he was starting to look like a pervert! He had gone that far in order to brightened the heavy atmosphere around the two of them.
"Is that so?" Zera was still unconvinced with this explanation but she became disgusted in the way Ace act so she looked at him with disdain and full of disappointment.
Ace can only smile bitterly, 'This outcome is better than telling you the truth'
"What I have said to you when I am having some fun is real. So do you want to be my wife?" Ace teased her, 'This is the only way I can relieve from that traumatic incident so how can I not tease you until I have my fill?'
"Humph! Don't think highly of yourself, Ace! Don't ever think that I will not going to end your life now!" She suddenly put an instance where she was about to unsheathe her dagger.
Ace was panic stricken and his forehead started to sweat a lot.
"I will.. I will just wander around for a while. Don't follow me!" She hurriedly turned her graceful back to Ace and dashed out in a very fast manner.
Ace didn't notice that, the eyes of Zera showed some ripples when he uttered those words. Even Zera doesn't understand its meaning. As of now, the reason was still not clear.
"....."
Ace was left in daze for a long time.
Because he has a lot of time to spare, he decided to settle some scores while those people are still within this mountain.
He closed his eyes as he scanned this mountain to find those people. When he found them, he disappeared out of nowhere.
Swoosh!
-----------
Somewhere at the peak of this mountain.
Many figures gathered here to try their luck and find some treasures because some individuals manage to gain an acceptable reward.
A group of people were standing out right now because they manage to find a rare herb which can cure an incurable illness.
Ace wore his mask when he was near to his target and then he mixed in together with the crowd as he noticed the center figure of this group.
This figure wasn't wearing a mask unlike the rest of the group so the protagonist recognized him immediately! The patriarch of Icesword Family!
He couldn't help but became furious deep in his eyes as he recalled this figure acting mighty and even dare to fight "his" Zera!
'Let's see if you can even fight back to me! Humph, if you want to fight me now at least bring your Saint-level ancestor!' He angrily roared in his mind.
Ace was full of killing intent deep inside now. Of course, he didn't let the enemy to discovered his killing intent because they will become wary and might even retreated if they discovered that their enemy was a hundred times stronger than them.
He waved his hand when the space around the Icesword Family's group began to be in chaos!
This alerted the group as they began to retreated a few steps backward.
"You dare to hurt my Zera? I came to here to settle some score!" An overbearing voice sounded.
"Zera? What are you talking about?" The patriarch became confused as he was thinking of someone who had he fought with.
"Who are you?! Can you come out and show your face. Hiding in the crowd is only the cowards will do!" The patriarch swept his gaze in the crowd as he was trying his best to pinpoint the location of the enemy, however, he can't find that person!
"Coward? Fine then, I will fulfill your death wished!" An overbearing laugh sounded among the crowd as a figure appeared in the midair and then landed in front of the group.
The group only had a solemn expression but didn't speak anything as the Ace leisurely seated cross-legged in front of them.
This act, surely a big insult to the group. This figure was bluntly showing them that they don't pose any threat towards him and this was a complete humiliation to them and to the family's prestige!
"You didn't still answer my question. Who are you? And what is your purpose of showing up to us!" The patriarch asked in a commanding tone. They already loss a face with Ace's previous action. He can't afford to make it worse any more so he decided to act bossy even though it will be a little risky.
"Hahaha. What a funny patriarch. You are about to die but you are still acting mighty. I don't know if you had an admirable courage or just a plain stupid." Ace said as he brought out a bottle of water on his bag and took his time to emptied the bottle.
The crowd became speechless with Ace's action. They don't know whether this figure is really that powerful enough to act like this or he was simply seeking death.
But they are sure of one thing, Ace was clearly provoking the whole group!
The Icesword Family's group nearly spitted a blood because of Ace's action.
They really want to take action but they can't because they are being suppress!
The crowd didn't realize this because Ace only suppress the group to the point where they can barely stand but if someone moved then the pressure will increase and if they stay still then the pressure will stop there.
Because of this, the group didn't dare to move because if they do, then some of them will began to kneel to the ground and unable to withstand the pressure anymore.
"It's been a while since I encounter such as yourself. I want to befriend with you so please accept my gift to show how sincere am I to befriend you!" He forwarded a wooden box to Ace with a friendly smile.
"Open it yourself, I want to take a look what's inside of that wooden box. You can't expect me to trust you right? who knows if you put a bomb their or a poison which can be triggered if opened." Ace said casually.
The patriarch can't do anything but to nod and give a faint smile.
The wooden box but he became nervous when the wooden box was empty!
