Chapter 291 Breaking Through to the Exalted Rank



Chapter 291 Breaking Through to the Exalted Rank

'I hope I'm not late.'

Ace flew as fast as he could.

He immediately landed on the ground when he saw Colonel Louie and the citizens. "Where is that magical beast?"

"Ace…"

"Ace…"

"Ace…"

Several citizens approached him.

Colonel Louie rose to his feet before finally answering, "They are already dead."

"They are already dead?" Ace did not notice the corpses of the white panda and the bear because it was quite far from them.

"That's right, Ace. They are already dead." The blue-haired man added.

"When we were in a dangerous situation, that magical wolf suddenly appeared and helped us." Colonel Louie knew that Ace was still confused.

"Yes." The red-haired man spoke abruptly. "That magical wolf suddenly appeared and killed the white panda and the bear."

"Magical wolf?" Ace still did not know that they were talking about Nova.

"Yes. That magical wolf." Colonel Louie told Ace that Nova was the one who helped them.

"Nova?" Ace still found it hard to believe what he was hearing.

Sure, he told Nova not to attack the citizens, but he had never told him to protect them.

This was the reason why he was stunned.

"I will meet that wolf now." after saying that, Ace headed to the place where Nova was resting.

Nova was not surprised when he saw Ace because he had guessed this before. "I knew you would visit me."

Ace sat on the ground next to Nova before finally leaning his back against a tree. "Thank you for protecting the citizens."

Nova turned into a human form and uttered, "I don't need it."

"I will give you food and snacks later." Ace decided to reward Nova because he had protected the citizens.

He chose food and snacks as rewards because he knew Nova liked human food.

"Really?" Nova's eyes shone brightly.

When Ace saw Nova's happy face, he knew he made the right decision. "Do you want it now?"

"I would love it if you gave the reward now." even though Nova had eaten, but he did not refuse because he ate raw meat earlier.

"Wait here." After saying that, Ace flew to his city.

He bought food and snacks for Nova.

He even bought a cake for him.

Nova had saved the citizens, so he decided to give him a big reward.

Colonel Louie and the citizens were shocked when they saw Ace carrying food and snacks. 

"Ace, why are you carrying food and snacks?"

"And why are you heading to the forest?"

"Do you want to camp in the forest?"

"Did city mistress give you a mission?"

"Be careful, Ace."

The citizens were curious as to why he was heading to the forest while carrying food and snacks.

"This is for that magical wolf. He has protected you guys, so I want to reward him." Ace gave an honest answer.

"What?!" the citizens were stunned.

'Don't magical beasts eat raw meat?'

They found it hard to believe what they were hearing. 

But even so, they did not ask more questions and only stared at Ace's back.

Ace also ignored their shocked expressions and continued walking because he wanted to give the food and snacks to Nova immediately.

"Here, enjoy it." After placing the food and snacks on the grass, Ace sat on the ground and leaned his back against a tree.

"Whoa! You also bring a cake?" the happiness within him grew bigger when Nova saw a cake. 

Of course, he knew what cake was because he had eaten it before, and he also loved it.

"I will eat it now." without waiting for another second, Nova ate the food.

Ace glanced at Nova without saying a single word.

'He looks like a real human.'

Even though Nova looked like a real human, but his body was emitting a beast aura.

That was what differentiates between real and fake human because magical beasts could not change their beast aura.

"Why did you leave after helping them?" Ace asked curiously.

"Pervert human, I mean, Ace." Nova immediately corrected his words. "I knew what had happened to your city from other magical beasts. That was why I left right after saving them."

Even though he did not attack Nightshire City, but he was also a magical beast. 

Sure, he saved them from the white panda and the bear, but he believed they still hated magical beasts because Dezmavas and his followers killed their families and destroyed their city.

"I see." Ace also thought Nova had made the right choice.

The duo continued talking.

At that time, they looked like two brothers chatting happily in the forest.

After talking for about an hour, Ace rose to his feet.

"I will go back now." Ace wanted to absorb the beast core, so he could not chat with Nova all day.

"Come back again tomorrow." Nova waved his hands. "Don't forget to bring food and snacks too."

Ace did not say anything and left.

----

Underground Cave, Rainbow Pool. 

'I still have a lot of beast cores in my space ring.'

Ace absorbed beast cores every day.

But even so, he still had many beast cores in his space ring because Scarlett gave him five hundred beast cores after the war.

Ace was the reason why they could protect their city, so Scarlett and the citizens agreed to give him more beast cores.

'I will absorb them now.'

With that idea in mind, he took off his clothes, leaving only his shorts.

After cleaning his body, he soaked in the rainbow pool and absorbed the beast cores.

With the help of Rainbow Pool, his absorption speed was the same as an awakener with grade S talent.

This was the reason why he was able to empty 1-star beast cores so quickly.

After absorbing beast cores for about an hour, he slowly opened his eyes.

'I feel like I'm about to break through to Exalted rank.'

He only had 2-star beast cores now because he had emptied all 1-star and 4-star beast cores.

'I will keep absorbing them.'

He shut his eyes and absorbed the beast cores again.

He could feel his awakening points thump after absorbing the third 2-star beast cores. His awakening points expanded slightly in size, and a crack appeared on the surface. 

*Crack…Crack…

Crack lines spread on the surface.

Not only that, but energy also began to swirl around his body.

After his awakening points cracked completely, his energy exploded, pushing away all the stones around the pool.

'I did it. I broke through to the Exalted rank.'

His new awakening points were slightly bigger. 

But even so, it could store much more energy.

'So, this is what it feels like to be an awakener at the Exalted rank, huh?'

The world was much clearer now. 

Not only that, but when the wind brushed against his body, he also could feel the energy that flowed through it.

As Ace was standing and smiling happily, Lexie walked toward the rainbow pool.

"Ace?" she was startled when she saw him.

'Hmm? Is it only me or he is stronger now?'

She felt his aura was much stronger than before.

"Lady Lexie?" after saying that, he jumped high into mid-air before finally landing in front of her. "Do you want to soak in the pool?"
