Henry's House, Backyard.

Henry was currently in the backyard with his subordinates. They immediately headed to the backyard after taking Roy and Jay from Scarlett.

Like before, Roy and Jay were still unconscious. They did not know that they were already at their lord's house.

Henry, who was standing in front of Roy and Jay, uttered, "Wake them up!"

One of his subordinates immediately threw water at Roy and Jay's faces.

*Splash…

The sound of water hitting their faces reverberated in the backyard.

Roy and Jay instantly regained consciousness. 

"Ace, you bastar-" They stopped their words halfway when they noticed their lord standing before them.

'Where are we?'

They still did not realize that they were in the backyard of Henry's house because they fell unconscious when they followed Ace in secret.

When they realized everything, they immediately knelt before Henry. "My lord, please forgive us."

Even though they wanted to know what happened after they fell unconscious, but they suppressed their curiosity because their lord stared at them angrily.

Liam, who was standing behind Henry, uttered, "Roy and Jay, do you know what trouble you guys caused our lord?"

Roy and Jay instantly slammed their heads to the ground.

Of course, they still did not know what trouble they had caused to Henry. However, based on their lord's angry expression, they believed they had caused big trouble.

"Lord, please forgive us." The duo kept asking for forgiveness because they did not want to die.

When Liam wanted to yell at them again, Henry stopped him. "Tell me, what information did you get from following Ace?"

"We…did not get any useful information." Roy and Jay responded in unison. "We only knew that they would go on a date later."

The flames of anger within Henry grew bigger drastically after hearing their words.

'A date?!'

His relationship with Scarlett had been getting worse lately, and here, Roy and Jay said Scarlett would go on a date with Ace.

'Damn it!'

At that moment, he really wanted to kill Ace.

"Useless!" after saying that, Henry entered his house.

"You have caused trouble for our lord, so your punishment is that you must kneel in this place until our lord forgives you." Liam followed Henry to his house.

Roy and Jay let out a sigh of relief.

Even though they had to kneel for a whole day, but it was better than getting killed by their lord.

'Thank god, we are still alive.'

That was what they said in their heads.

----

City Guard Headquarters, Front Yard.

"Haha."

"That's is funny!"

"Haha."

Laughter and chatter reverberated in the front yard of the city guard headquarters.

Scarlett and her subordinates were currently having a party. Previously, Ace got 200 gold coins from Henry, so he decided to hold a small party with city guards.

"Ace, you should ask for more money earlier."

"That's right. I dislike Henry, so I really want to see him cry blood."

"Haha. You are so cruel, brother!"

"Someone like Henry deserver it!"

Scarlett's subordinates, who disliked Henry, spoke ill of him.

Even though her subordinates bad-mouthed Henry, Scarlett acted as if she did not hear anything.

She even did not care about what they were talking about because her mind was filled with Ace.

'It's a pity that I can't lovey-dovey with Ace!"

She glanced at Ace before finally drinking her lemon juice.

'Should I ignore them and lovey-dovey with Ace?'

She really wanted to sit between Ace's legs or feed each other.

'No, no! I should maintain my image as city mistress. I can't do that.'

She shook her head.

Lieutenant Valeria, who was sitting not far from Scarlett, inquired, "What's wrong, city mistress?"

"Why are you shaking your head, city mistress? Do you want something?" Captain Lia asked curiously.

"Nothing!" Scarlett consumed her food elegantly again.

Captain Noah, who was sitting on Ace's right side, uttered, "Ace, you need to be careful of Henry from today onwards."

Captain Noah believed Henry would try to do something bad to Ace because Ace had robbed 200 gold coins from him earlier.

Before Ace could say something, one of Scarlett's subordinates uttered, "You don't need to worry about it, captain Noah. Ace is strong. Nothing bad will happen to him."

"That's right." The blue-haired man added. "Ace can kill a 3-star Red Ogre in less than five minutes. I'm sure, Henry is not his opponent now."

"Un, un." The green-haired man nodded his head. "If they fought, I'm sure Ace could defeat Henry in less than five minutes."

"I agreed!" the brown-haired man spoke abruptly. "Compared to Ace, Henry is nothing. The difference between them is like the heavens and the earth."

"Hey. Ace is a Rheanix. He is someone loved by the heavens. Comparing him to Henry was tantamount to insulting the heavens." Apologize now!" The red-haired man also believed that Ace was much stronger than Henry.

"My bad. Haha." The brown-haired man laughed.

Even though Ace did not say anything, but he liked hearing their words.

'Un, un. Not bad! Their way of praising me is not bad.'

Of course, he did not show it on his face.

Captain Noah hit Ace's right shoulder and laughed. "Haha. Ace, it seems like you have more fans now. Haha."

They continued chatting.

At 03:00 pm, Scarlett and Ace left.

Like what they had planned, they decided to go on a date. 

The duo decided to go to the Zait district because many romantic places were in that place.

Scarlett, who was walking on Ace's right side, inquired, "Ace, can you let me borrow your Transformation Mask?"

"Transformation Mask?" Ace tilted his head in confusion.

"I want to lovey-dovey with you, but I can't do that in a public place." She could not let her people know about her childish and spoiled behavior, so she wanted to change her appearance.

"Sure." After saying that, Ace retrieved Transformation Mask from his space ring.

"Thank you." Scarlett instantly changed her appearance.

Actually, she did not change the shape of her body. She only changed her face because there was no need to change her appearance completely.

"Let's go to Zait district and lovey-dovey in that place." After saying that, she embraced his right arm.

"Sure." Ace smiled softly.

Like before, they chatted about many things as they headed to the Zait district. Due to how happy they were, they even did not realize that they had arrived at their destination.

"Where should we go now?" Scarlett inquired.

"How about we go to Love Lake?" Ace responded.

Love Lake was famous in the Zait district.

The place was beautiful, with many colorful trees surrounding the lake. 

It was called Love Lake because legend had it that their love would grow bigger if a couple visited this lake.

Of course, Ace did not believe it.

He wanted to visit Love Lake because that place was beautiful.

"Sure!" Scarlett agreed instantly.

After walking for several minutes, they finally arrived at Love Lake.

Ace and Scarlett were currently sitting on a wooden bench under a tree, looking at Love Lake.

Like before, they were still holding hands. They did not hold back themselves and did whatever they wanted because Scarlett was using Transformation Mask.

"It's beautiful!" Scarlett stated.

Her heart was filled with happiness because she could spend time with her young lover in a beautiful lake.

"Yes." Ace agreed with her words. "But you are more beautiful."

[God of Wind says, cringe!]

[God of Harem laughs loudly.]

As usual, Ace behaved as if he did not see the notifications.

"Hehe." Scarlet giggled cutely. "Ace, are you seducing me right now?"

The corner of his lips twitched. "I'm not seducing you. I'm stating the fact."

"Why did you suddenly praise me?" she inquired. "Don't tell me. You want to kiss me?"

Ace pinched her nose and responded, "You are my lover. I don't need to seduce you if I only want to kiss you."

Scarlett removed his hand from her nose and uttered, "Young man, I'm not your lover. Have you forgotten that I'm your sugar mama?"

"Sugar mama, huh?" Ace uttered, "Then I can do whatever I want to you."

If previously he pinched her nose, he pinched her cheeks this time.

Like before, she removed his hands from her face. "You dare to do something like that to me, huh? Then I have to punish you."

"You want to punish me? Sure. I'm waiting." He challenged her to punish him.

"Then close your eyes first." She did not punish him immediately; instead, she told him to close his eyes.

Instead of closing his eyes immediately, Ace inquired, "Why do I have to close my eyes?"

"Just close your eyes." She did not answer his question. 

Ace did not shut his eyes and stared at him.

Because he did not close his eyes, Scarlett uttered, "Ace, just close your eyes."

"Sure." As a good lover, he did what he was told.

'What is she going to do?'

He suddenly felt excited.

He was closing his eyes, so he did not know what she would do to him.

To his surprise, Scarlett suddenly cupped his handsome face and pressed her lips against hers.

Kiss!

Yes, she kissed him!

All people around them were couples, and they did not pay attention to them, so it was a good time to kiss him.

This was the reason why she suddenly kissed him.

Ace instantly opened his eyes when he felt her tender lips on his.

'Hmm?'

He did not expect her to kiss him.

Was he happy?

Of course, he was happy!

They were in a romantic place, so it felt good to be kissed by his lover.

'It seems like today will become a good day!'
