"Leader, how many girlfriends do you have now?" Julia asked curiously.
Renea and the others instantly turned their heads toward him because they were also curious about it.
Ace was startled by her question.
At first, he did not want to answer her question, but he changed his mind when he saw their curious expressions.
"I have two girlfriends." Ace gave an honest answer. "My first lover is Scarlett, the city mistress. My second girlfriend is Valeria, a lieutenant in Nightshire city. You have met them before."
"Then how many girlfriends do you want to have in the future?" Aniya inquired.
The corner of his lips twitched. "Why do you want to know about this?"
"Because you are our leader." They responded in unison.
[God of Wind utters, we also want to know about it.]
[Several divine beings look at you in silence, waiting for your answer.]
Ace was at a loss for words when he saw two notifications.
'Aren't you divine beings? Why do you want to know about this too?'
He did not expect them to react like that.
"Leader, why don't you answer Aniya's question immediately?" Julia hoped Ace would answer Aniya's question immediately because she was curious about it.
"Don't tell me. You want ten girlfriends, leader?" the pink-haired woman spoke abruptly.
"Is it twenty, leader?"
"Why is it only twenty? Our leader is an amazing person. He should at least have fifty girlfriends."
"What are you talking about? Fifty women are not enough. At least one hundred girlfriends."
"That's right. Someone as amazing as our leader should have many girlfriends or else it will ruin his reputation."
"I agreed."
One by one, his underlings said something shocking as if they knew their leader was a pervert.
[All divine beings burst into waves of laughter after hearing their words.]
[God of Wind utters, that's right. You are the Ruler's grandson. You need to have at least 100 women.]
[God of Harem agrees with God of Wind's words.]
Ace ignored the notifications and answered, "That is something I can't answer because I don't know what will happen in the future."
"Oh, does that mean there is a possibility of you having a hundred women in the future?" Julia uttered.
Black lines formed on Ace's forehead. "What about you, Julia? Do you have a lover?"
"I don't have a boyfriend, leader." Julia gave an honest answer. "All members of the Phoenix organization don't have boyfriends. We are single."
"Do you want to be our boyfriend, leader?" Aniya teased him.
"Does that mean you now have eighty-two girlfriends, leader?" Julia teased him too.
Ace did not expect them to tease him like that. "Because you said so, then all of you are my women now."
"Then you have to treat us well, leader." Aniya and Julia spoke in unison.
"Sure." He answered.
Of course, everyone knew they were only joking around because it was written on their faces.
After talking for several hours, they headed to their tents to sleep.

The following morning, Ace and his underlings returned to Nightshire City. After arriving home, he asked Scarlett to help him with his next plan.
Scarlett agreed instantly.
She immediately spread the word that the Riley family had sold their properties to her and left Nightshire City.
The whole city was in uproar when they heard it. The news about the Riley family instantly became a hot topic.
All people, from young to old, talked about the Riley family when they were together. Of course, none of them felt sorry for the Riley family because everything was their fault.
Actually, most of them had guessed this.
The Riley family was famous for having many bad rumors.
Coupled with them insulting Ace's father and dragging him to court out of the blue made the Riley family lose their reputation completely.
So, none of them felt anything odd about the news of their departure from Nightshire City because they had lost their place.
Unlike everyone who could still act normally, the same thing did not happen to Henry and his son.
They were furious.
They were enraged because everything was out of their control again.
They failed to ruin Ace's reputation.
They failed to use the Riley family as a tool for revenge against Ace.
And they failed to take the Riley family's wealth.
Ace was even more popular now because everyone knew he was an awakener at Master rank.
"Damn it!" Henry, who was looking at Nightshire City through a window, clenched his fist.
'We need to make a new plan again.'
He said in his mind.
----
Scarlett's House, Her Bedroom.
Ace and Scarlett were currently lying on the bed.
After taking a shower together, they immediately headed to her room because they wanted to lovey-dovey in her room.
"Are you sure you want to give half of Morgan's businesses to my city?" Scarlett inquired.
Previously, Ace said he would give her half of Morgan's businesses. He said it was to help develop her city.
That was why she asked this question because previously, she thought he would take all of Morgan's businesses.
"Yes." He responded instantly. "This city is my hometown, so let's just say that this is my contribution to this city."
Scarlett immediately kissed his right cheek. "Thank you, Ace. You are indeed the best young man in the world."
"In what category?" he hoped she would praise him again when he said this.
"In the pervert category." She giggled after saying that.
The corner of his lips twitched. "So, you mean, I'm the most perverted man in the world?"
"That's right." She responded, "You are the most pervert man in the world. Hehe."
Ace immediately lay on top of her before finally grabbing her hands. "I dare you to say it again."
"You are the most perverted man in the world. You are a pervert king. Hehe." She repeated her words without feeling afraid.
"Because you said so, then I will do perverted things to you now." After saying that, he took off his T-shirt.
To his surprise, Scarlett did the same, removing her T-shirt.
"Why did you take off your T-shirt, young lady?" he inquired.
"You want to do pervert things to me, right? That was why I removed my T-shirt because, with this, it would be easier for you to do pervert things to me." She gave an honest answer.
"It seems like you are a pervert too." he teased her.
"No." she denied instantly. "I'm not a pervert. I'm a good lover."
"Is that so? Then let me eat you, my good lover." After saying that, he kissed her passionately.
And soon, her room was filled with her moans.
----
The following morning, Ace went to his restaurant after having breakfast with Scarlett. His face broke into a smile when he saw many customers in his restaurant.
He was happy.
He was thrilled because his first business was doing good.
'Life is beautiful when everything is under my control.'
He was currently sitting on his office chair.
After checking his employees, he immediately headed to his office to rest.
Ace's office was quite big.
There was a window behind his office chair and a couch in front of his workbench.
A big cupboard filled with documents was located behind the sofa, and a small tree was placed in each corner of his office.
Ace put a small tree in his office because he wanted the air in his office always to be fresh.
'Oh, right. What is Valeria doing right now?'
He suddenly remembered his other girlfriend.
'I will meet her now.'
With that idea in mind, he walked out of his office.
However, something unexpected happened when he was on his way to the city guard headquarters.
He met Lily and Lala!
Ace immediately retrieved his Phoenix sword from his space ring.
They were the ones who attacked him in the forest, so he thought they would strike him again.
"We finally meet you, Ace." Lala and Lily said in unison.
When they were about to say something to him, they were welcomed with a huge slash from Ace.
Boom!
Thunderous sounds reverberated in the entire area.
Even though Ace gave a surprise attack, the twins could avoid it.
"Wait!" Lily said when Ace wanted to attack them again. "You are not our target anymore. We have no intention of attacking you."
"That's right." Lala added. "Can we talk first?"
"Do you think I will believe you?" Ace swung his sword again after saying that, sending a huge wave of energy at them.
