Davion returned his attention to Ace and inquired, "How is it, Ace? Do you accept my challenge?"
Everyone was shocked by the unexpected turn of events.
Previously, they thought Henry's subordinates would only spar among themselves, but they were wrong.
They were utterly wrong because Davion immediately challenged Ace right after defeating Jake.
"Do you think Ace will accept the challenge?"
"I don't think so."
"Yes. I also think he will decline it because accepting the challenge is like digging his own grave."
"Davion is a strong awakener, so I don't think Ace will accept the challenge."
The subordinates of the four major families believed Ace would reject the challenge because Davion was a strong awakener.
However, what Ace did was the exact opposite of their guess.
Ace rose to his feet and walked toward Davion!
He accepted Davion's challenge!
Everyone was stunned again.
This was different from what they previously thought, so some of them still found it hard to believe what was going on.
"Why is he walking toward Davion? Does this mean he accepts the challenge?"
"What?! He accepted the challenge?! Doesn't he know it's dangerous?"
"Ace, are you crazy?"
"Ace, what are you doing?"
"Has he lost his mind?"
Chatter erupted like a handful of pearls striking a hade tray.
Ace was doing something the exact opposite of their guess, so they were shocked.
"Sure. I accepted your challenge." Unlike the others, Ace was not surprised by Davion's challenge because his clone had informed him about this before.
And he accepted Davion's challenge because this was an excellent opportunity to show everyone that he was no longer a weak young man.
Davion's lips curled up into a grin.
Previously, he thought he needed to persuade Ace to accept his challenge, but he was wrong.
Of course, he was delighted because this was what he wanted.
'It seems like I will get a lot of money today.'
Edward promised to give him a lot of money if he could injure Ace, so in his eyes, he was already rich because he believed he could injure and defeat Ace.
Edward, who was sitting on the ground with his back leaning against a tree, stated. "What a fool!"
Like Edward, Henry was also thrilled because everything went according to his plan.
'I didn't expect him to accept the challenge immediately. What a fool!'
Even though he was delighted, he did not show it on his face because he was with Scarlett and the others.
"Ace, what are you doing? You can decline his challenge if you want." Captain Noah wore a worried face when he saw Ace walking toward Davion because he did not know that Ace was a powerful awakener.
'Why didn't the city mistress stop him?'
He turned his head to look at Scarlett.
'What?! Why is she enjoying her tea?'
The expression of deep shock blossomed on his face when he saw Scarlett enjoying her tea.
He was shocked because Scarlett was behaving calmly as if she did not care about Ace's safety.
'I have to ask her about this.'
Something like this had never happened before, so he decided to ask Scarlett the reason why she did not stop Ace.
Normally, Scarlett overprotected Ace. There was even a time where she ordered her subordinates to destroy a gang because that gang bullied and injured Ace heavily.
This was the reason why he decided to ask Scarlett directly because he believed something was going on.
When Scarlett saw Captain Noah, she inquired, "What is it, Captain Noah?"
She sipped her tea elegantly and gracefully.
Her behavior was completely different from when she was with Ace. At this moment, she looked like an amazing leader with a calm personality.
"City mistress, why didn't you stop him?" Captain Noah asked curiously.
"It's fine. It's only a spar." After saying that, Scarlett put her tea elegantly as if she was from a noble family.
"But what if something bad happens to him later?" Captain Noah was still worried about Ace's safety.
"Don't worry. Nothing bad will happen to him." Scarlett shifted her gaze to her handsome lover.
'I just hope he won't beat Davion to death later.'
She added in her mind.
Captain Noah shifted his gaze from city mistress to Lieutenant Valeria, hoping Lieutenant Valeria would stop Ace.
However, Lieutenant Valeria only shook her head without saying a single word.
*Sigh…
Captain Noah sighed when he saw their behavior.
'I will just protect him myself.'
He walked toward a place where he was close to Ace.
'I hope nothing bad will happen to him later.'
He was standing in front of a tree, ready to save Ace anytime.
Everyone might not know it, but he had a good relationship with Ace.
Because everyone in the military always teased him, Ace's predecessor always spent time with Captain Noah whenever he visited the military headquarters with Scarlett.
This was the reason why Captain Noah had a good relationship with Ace.
As Captain Noah was worried about Ace's safety, Ace was standing before Davion, acting calmly like usual.
"Take out your weapon now. Let's start our fight immediately." Davion tried his best to hide the happiness in his heart.
"I don't need a weapon. I will fight you with my bare hands." Ace could defeat Davion without a weapon, so he decided to fight barehanded.
Davion was unhappy after hearing Ace's words.
'Is he underestimating me?!'
Ace always fought with a sword in the past, so Davion felt like he was being underestimated by Ace.
Davion tried his best to suppress his anger. "Fine. But don't make an excuse later."
"You don't need to worry about it." Ace responded calmly.
"Then let's start now." Davion's eyes were locked on Ace as he grabbed his spear firmer.
At this moment, everyone's attention was on Ace and Davion. The duo became the center of attention as if they were famous people.
"Haa…" Davion rushed toward Ace, aiming his spear at Ace's chest.
Like before, Ace still acted calmly.
He even put his left arm behind his back as if he was a master of martial arts.
'I will end this fight with one move.'
After moving to the left to avoid Davion's attack, Ace raised his right arm.
Boom!
Davion's body fell to the ground like a stone after being hit by Ace in the face.
His front teeth fell out, and blood came out of his mouth. Davion instantly fell unconscious because Ace's attack was too strong for him.
*Silence…
The entire area turned into a dead silence.
Previously, they thought Davion would be the winner of the fight because he was a powerful awakener at Elite rank.
However, the reality was different from what they thought.
Ace was the winner of the fight!
He defeated Davion!
Not only did he win against Davion, he even won the fight in an overwhelming way.
One move!
It only took him one move to defeat Davion.
This showed one meaning.
Ace was much stronger than Davion!
This was the reason why everyone was shocked because Ace was a weak young man in their eyes.
"Hey, I'm seeing Davion passed out on the ground. Is this real?"
"I'm seeing the same thing too."
"What?! You are also seeing the same thing?! Does that mean Ace won the fight?"
"But how could he defeat Davion? Isn't he a weak young man?"
"Yes. How could he win the fight? This is different from what I expected."
"I also thought he would lose the fight."
"Oi, Davion, are you pretending to faint?"
"Are we in some kind of illusion?"
The troops found it hard to believe what they were seeing.
They rubbed their eyes, but what they saw was the same.
Davion was unconscious before Ace!
Ace won against Davion!
Like the troops, Henry was also shocked.
Due to how shocked he was, he even thought he was under illusion magic.
'What is this? Am I under illusion magic?'
He turned his head to the left and right, skimming his surroundings.
When he saw that everyone was also shocked, he finally realized it was real.
'But how? How did he defeat Davion?'
Two months ago, Ace was a weak young man, so he found it hard to believe what was happening.
He even did not know how Davion was defeated by Ace.
Like his father, Edward was also shocked.
He even rose to his feet.
'How could he defeat Davion? Isn't he a weak young man?'
He was shocked because someone, who he thought was weak, could defeat one of his family's strongest subordinates.
Captain Noah, who was ready to save Ace, opened his mouth in surprise.
'Ace won the fight?!'
Previously, he was ready to use One Thousand Steps skill to save Ace, but it was not needed now as Ace was the winner of the fight.
Lieutenant Valeria, who was always calm, failed to hide her surprised expression.
However, she came to her senses shortly after that.
'As expected of a hero's son.'
Lieutenant Valeria suddenly remembered when Ace's father bravely protected the city.
Unlike the others, Scarlett and Layla were not surprised by the result of the fight.
Scarlett even could sip her tea calmly as if nothing had happened on the field.
'They only saw him defeating Davion in one move, but they were already making such expressions. If they know that Ace is an Aeris and can master any skill and magic instantly, I'm sure they will faint immediately.'
She believed they would faint instantly if they knew how amazing Ace was.
"This snack is delicious!" Layla enjoyed their surprised expressions as she consumed the snacks.
[Several divine beings enjoy their surprised expressions.]
[God of Wind nods his head in satisfaction.]
[God of Sea give you a thumb up.]
Like usual, Ace still acted calmly.
' Their surprised expressions are not bad. I like it.'
He was satisfied when he saw their surprised expressions.
He then took one step forward and put his hands behind his back. "Is there anyone who still wants to fight me?"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
Davion returned his attention to Ace and inquired, "How is it, Ace? Do you accept my challenge?"
Everyone was shocked by the unexpected turn of events.
Previously, they thought Henry's subordinates would only spar among themselves, but they were wrong.
