An unexpected happiness consumed him after his system explained the new feature to him.
'What an amazing feature!'
Even though it cost money to use the Energy Replenishment feature, it was worth it because he could replenish his energy instantly.
'The proverb is right. Money can solve and buy everything.'
The pain of not getting a binding slot disappeared without a trace.
"It seems like I have to keep doing good things like become a hero, beat up bad people and take their money." He mused.
[Several divine beings laugh after hearing your words.]
[God of Mountain utters, boy, don't you think your words feel wrong?]
[Greed likes what you just said.]
'System, how much do I have to pay to use this feature?'
He was curious about it.
[1 gold coin per level. The system will use energy level based on your Mana Capacity level.]
'1 gold coin per level? My Mana Capacity is level 61. So, I need 61 gold to replenish my energy from zero to full.'
The happiness within him grew bigger.
'Wait.'
He thought of something.
'If there is Energy Replenishment, doesn't that mean there will be Strength Replenishment, Stamina Replenishment and Mana Replenishment?'
Imagining he could replenish his energy, stamina, strength, and mana made his heart pound with happiness.
'My system is an amazing cheat.'
He knew his system was an amazing cheat, but he did not expect it to be much better than he thought.
'I can see the road to become the Ruler.'
With the help of his system, the possibility of him becoming the Ruler was very high.
[Host, how much money will you put into the system?]
Instead of answering the question, he asked, "Can I take back the money later?]
[No, Host. The money will no longer have a physical form, so you can't take it back.]
Ace sighed.
'Then I will put 20,000 gold coins into the system.'
The system instantly absorbed his gold coins from his space ring.
'I no longer have beast core in my space ring now. I will kill magical beasts if I have free time.'
He said in his mind.
To his surprise, Lieutenant Valeria woke up when he looked at her. "Ace, you are already awake?"
He immediately helped her when she tried to sit up. "I woke up a few minutes ago."
Like yesterday, they chatted again.
After talking for several minutes, he inquired, "Are you hungry?"
"Un." She nodded her head.
"Let's go to the waterfall. There is a waterfall not far from here." He knew about this from his clones.
"Alright." She agreed instantly because spending time at the waterfall was better than in a cave.
Lieutenant Valeria instantly turned her head to the other side when Ace carried her in a princess style.
'I'm still not used to this.'
It was her first time depending on a man in everything, so she always hid her shyness.
After arriving at the waterfall, Ace immediately cooked breakfast. They only consumed grilled fish last night, so he wanted them to eat healthy food.
Lieutenant Valeria was startled when she saw him cooking breakfast.
'He can cook?!'
She thought he could not cook because he looked like a young man who only had a handsome face.
After putting the meal on a wooden plate, he walked closer to her.
His intention was clear.
He wanted to feed her!
She still could not use her hands, so he had to feed her.
Even though he also fed her last night, Lieutenant Valeria was still shy. Of course, she hid her shyness because she was older than him.
"How is it?" Ace asked as he smiled.
"It's delicious." She was not lying when she said this.
Previously, she was surprised when she knew that he could cook. But what surprised her most was that his food was so delicious.
It was even as delicious as the food from a famous restaurant.
When Ace noticed there was vegetable gravy in the corner of her lips, he wanted to wipe it off.
Lieutenant Valeria's heart suddenly beat fast.
'What is he going to do?'
She did not move from her position and only stared at his right hand.
At this moment, her mind suddenly went wild. She thought he wanted to cup her face and kiss her.
'No. You can't kiss me. I still don't know whether you are stronger than me or not.'
She returned her gaze to his handsome face when he was wiping off the vegetable gravy in the corner of her lips.
'Ace, you should not do something suddenly like this. You almost gave me heart attack.'
It was not the first time he suddenly did something to her because he did the same thing before they went to the Framingburns forest.
"Thank you." She tried her best to act normally. "Ace, you should eat too."
"I'm feeding you right now, so I will eat later." He would eat after feeding her.
"But…" she still wanted him to eat because she felt bad for him.
"Then should I eat from the same plate and spoon as you?" he decided to tease her after seeing her expression.
"It's up to you." She turned her head to the other side after seeing this.
'Is he really going to eat from the same plate and spoon as me?'
She glanced at him.
[God of Harem asks you to keep teasing her.]
Because he wanted to keep teasing her, he uttered, "Can I?"
"It's up to you." She repeated her words.
She did not say no, but she also did not say yes.
That meant he could do whatever he wanted.
Everything was up to him.
He could eat from the same plate and spoon as her if he wanted.
However, Ace decided not to do that because he only wanted to tease her. "Here, eat again."
'It was fun teasing her.'
He was happy when he saw her expression.
Lieutenant Valeria opened her little mouth before consuming the food. She did not know why, but she felt relieved and disappointed at the same time.
'What is this? Do I hope we could eat from the same plate? Why am I feeling like this? Is it because he has been taking care of me since yesterday?'
Countless questions appeared in her mind.
When Ace noticed that she was looking at him, he smiled softly. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing." She shook her head.
After eating breakfast, they did not return to the cave because she said she wanted to stay at the waterfall.
Ace granted her wish because he also thought staying at the waterfall was better.
Time went by quickly, and without realizing it, it was already 04:30 pm. Ace and Lieutenant Valeria were currently on their way to the cave.
However, something unexpected happened when they were close to the cave.
They saw twenty magical beasts at the entrance of the cave!
Among these twenty magical beasts, two of them were already at 3-star.
At first, Ace wanted to chase them away, but Lieutenant Valeria stopped him. Even though she knew he was powerful, but their enemies were twenty magical beasts.
From her point of view, it was better to look for another shelter because she did not want him to get injured.
Ace agreed with her idea.
Although he was sure that he would not lose to them, but he could not protect Lieutenant Valeria while fighting them.
This was the reason why he looked for an abandoned house or a cave.
"Let's hope we can find an abandoned house or a cave." He spoke abruptly.
"Un." She nodded her head.
Ace was currently flying and carrying her.
It was already 04:40 pm, so flying was better than walking.
*Drip…
A raindrop fell on Ace's face.
He instantly stopped flying and lifted his head to look at the sky.
"What's wrong, Ace?" she asked curiously.
"A raindrop fell on my face. It's going to rain." He gave an honest answer.
"Then we have to find a shelter quickly." She responded.
Ace instantly created four clones and ordered them to help him find a cave or abandoned house.
'I hope we had found shelter before it rained.'
He stood on a tree branch before skimming his surroundings.
At the same time, one of his clones found an abandoned house and sent a signal to him. He wasted no time and flew in the direction where the signal had come from.
*Pitter-patter…
It suddenly rained heavily.
Ace was shocked by this. "Lieutenant Valeria, I will fly faster."
"Un." She nodded her head.
After flying for several seconds, they finally reached the abandoned house. However, most of their clothes were wet from the heavy rain.
"Good! There is a fire pit in this house." Ace was pleasantly surprised when he saw a fire pit next to the bamboo bed.
"And there is also a few firewood." Like Ace, she was also delighted.
"But this house is…" he did not finish his words.
Even though there was a fire pit in the house, the condition of the house was not good because there were many holes in the wooden wall.
They immediately looked for something to close the holes, but they didn't have enough material to cover all the holes.
"Lieutenant Valeria, your dress is wet. Do you want to change it?" he inquired.
Ace and Lieutenant Valeria were currently in front of the fire pit.
"Yes." She did not want to sleep in wet clothes. "Please help me change my clothes."
Ace immediately helped her change into dry clothes.
After changing to dry clothes, she inquired, "Don't you want to change your clothes too?"
"Yes." Ace instantly rosed to his feet.
When Ace was about to remove his clothes, she uttered, "Wait! Are you going to change in front of me?"
