"Captain Noah, go meet La and tell her toe here." Scarlett wanted La to join the meeting because La was an awakener at Master rank.
"Understood, city mistress." After saying that, Captain Noah walked out of the tent to call La.
Scarlett returned her attention to Aron and the others. "Let''s wait for La first."
"Alright." Melissa and the others responded in unison.
Even though Scarlett did not exin the reason why she ordered Captain Noah to call La, they could understand her intention.
There were eight awakeners at Master rank in Nightshire City. These eight people were Lexie, Aron, Henry, Melissa, Alvaro, Scarlett, Lieutenant Valeria, and La.
Actually, there were nine awakeners at Master rank in Nightshire city, but they still did not know that Ace was an awakener at Master rank.
"Scarlett, why did you call me?" La asked curiously after stepping into the conference tent.
"We want to form several teams to fight the 3-star ogres, so you need to participate in this meeting." Scarlett gave an honest answer.
"Team? Then I want to be on the same team as Ace." La did not feel shy when she said she wanted to be on the same team as Ace, as if she was his lover.
Everyone instantly looked at Ace before finally returning their attention to La.
''Another woman has been charmed by his handsome face.''
These were the words that appeared in their minds.
Like Scarlett and the others, Ace was also startled by her words.
''Thisdy...''
He did not expect her to say something like that.
Of course, he did not mind if they were on the same team because it was better than being in the same group as Henry and his son.
And he also had a special rtionship with La, so being in the same group as her was also a good idea.
No!
Actually, he did not know the status of their rtionship.
They had gone on a date, hugged each other, and held hands.
They even kissed passionately a few times, but neither of them ever mentioned their rtionship status.
Maybe, calling it a rtionship without status was the right word because they had never discussed it before.
Captain Noah, who was standing next to Ace, said in a low voice, "As expected of the most handsome man in Nightshire City, you are indeed amazing! It seems like almost all women in our city have fallen for you. Hehe."
Ace could only twitch his lips after hearing Captain Noah''s words.
Of course, he was not angry at Captain Noah because Captain Noah only wanted to tease him.
*Sigh…
Scarlett sighed when she saw La''s behavior.
At that moment, she wanted to scold La, but she changed her mind because she had to maintain her image as city mistress.
''It seems like she has fallen in love with Ace.''
She nced at La and Ace.
Henry, who was seeing La, smirked.
''I forgot that she has a close rtionship with Ace. I will tell Scarlett about their rtionship if the opportunity arises.''
He wanted to ruin Scarlett''s rtionship with Ace, so he would make up a story about Ace and La if the opportunity arose.
Melissa, her husband, and Lexie did not say anything and only stared at Ace and La.
Of course, they were not surprised by this because Ace was the most handsome man in Nightshire City.
If Scarlett was not his sugar mama, they believed some women would have dragged him to their rooms because they knew many women liked him secretly.
They just did not expect that La was also interested in Ace.
They thought she would not be attracted to Ace because she was Scarlett''s good friend, but they were wrong.
''Well, she is also a woman, so it''s normal.''
They could understand it because Ace was really attractive.
"La, there are eight 3-star ogres, and we have eight people at Master rank, so each of us will fight one 3-star ogre." Scarlett told La indirectly that she could not be in the same group as Ace.
"Then let Ace be on my team." La did not give up and kept wanting to be in the same group as Ace.
Scarlett and the others ignored La and began discussing their n. They had eight people at Master rank and four hundred subordinates, so they could make a n quickly.
Since the number of their enemies was only two hundred, Scarlett and the others decided to let two hundred of their subordinates fight them.
The other two hundred subordinates would be split into eight groups to support them against the 3-star ogres.
Each team would have one person at Master rank and twenty-five subordinates. With this tactic, they believed the possibility of them winning the fight was high.
"If you have any other ideas, just say so." Scarlett said, "We can discuss it together."
"How about one of the groups have two awakeners at Master rank?" Ace began exining his idea.
If they fought one by one with a 3-star ogre, the possibility of them winning the fight was only fifty percent.
However, it was a different story if two awakeners at Master rank fought one 3-star ogre. He believed the possibility of them winning the fight was ny-nine percent.
"The group with two awakeners at the Master rank must kill their enemy as quickly as possible." Ace spoke and paused for a second before he continued, "After killing their enemy, they have to help others immediately."
He believed everything would be under their control if they managed to kill one of the 3-star ogres at the beginning of the fight.
"It''s a good idea but also risky," Lexie stated.<novelsnext></novelsnext>
"Then who will fight thest 3-star ogreter?" Melissa inquired.
At this moment, Henry found a good idea to kill Ace without intervening.
''I did not expect him to give me a good opportunity to kill him.''
His lips curled up into a grin.
"I agreed with Ace''s idea!" Henry stated.
Everyone was stunned.
They knew that Henry had a bad rtionship with Ace because Henry liked Scarlett, and Ace had humiliated Edward in front of everyone.
This was the reason why they were shocked when Henry suddenly said he agreed with Ace''s idea.
Like Scarlett and the others, Ace was also startled.
''Hmm?''
However, he did not say anything and only stared at Henry.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Henry inquired, "I agreed because his idea is good, nothing more than that."
"If we use Ace''s idea, then who will fight thest 3-star ogre?" Alvaro asked curiously.
"Of course, Ace will fight that ogre because it''s his idea." Henry forgot to hide his intention, causing everyone to know his motive immediately.
"That''s right. Ace should be the one who fights thest 3-star ogre." Edward added.
''Good job, father! Good job!''
He understood his father''s intention right after hearing it.
Like Edward, Lexie and the others finally knew Henry''s real intention.
''I see. It seems like he wants Ace to die at the hands of a 3-star ogre.''
They immediately shifted their gaze from Henry to Ace, waiting for his response.
"No, I disagreed!" Captain Noah disagreed immediately.
Even though Ace was strong, he believed Ace would die if he fought 3-star Red Ogre. Red Ogre was different than an ordinary ogre.
They were born to fight, so a 3-star Red Ogre was much stronger than a 3-star ordinary ogre. This was the reason why Captain Noah did not want Ace to fight 3-star Red Ogre.
Ace still did not say anything and only stared at Henry and Edward.
''Alright. I''ve decided it. I will kill Edwardter.''
Of course, he did not show his intention on his face.
"Ace, you agree, right? After all, this is your idea." Henry tried to force Ace to agree.
"Sure!" Ace agreed immediately.
"Ace, you should not agree to his words!" Captain Noah suggested that Ace change his mind.
"It''s fine, Captain Noah!" Ace smiled softly.
''It seems like he really has a good rtionship with my predecessor.''
Captain Noah had always shown a caring attitude towards him from the start, so he decided to protect Captain Noahter.
Henry and the others shifted their gaze from Ace to Scarlett, waiting for her response.
"Then do you agree with Ace''s idea?" Scarlett inquired. "We will use his idea if you agree."
Lexie and the others were shocked after seeing Scarlett''s behavior.
''What?! She is acting calmly?!''
Previously, they thought she would disagree because they knew she was overprotective of Ace, but they were wrong.
They were utterly wrong because she still behaved normally, as if Ace would not face a dangerous enemy.
Henry''s lips curled up into a grin.
''Oh, this is beyond my expectations, but I like it.''
Of course, he liked it because the probability of Ace dying in a fight against a 3-star Red Ogre was high.
Like his father, Edward also grinned evilly.
''He is a fool!''
Ace was a fool in his eyes because Ace agreed to fight 3-star Red Ogre.
Lexie, Aron, Melissa, and Alvaro exchanged nces with each other before finally nodding their heads.
"We agreed with Ace''s idea." They said in unison.
Aron then looked at Alvaro. "Alvaro, you will be on the same team as me."
"Sure." Alvaro agreed immediately.
Aron then tapped Ace''s right shoulder. "Ace, just focus on surviving. I will kill my enemy quickly and help you."
"Sure!" Ace responded as he smiled.
Right after he responded to Aron''s words, a notification popped up.
