Goddess Teressa sighed after Gracie died.

Even though Gracie had done many bad things, but Gracie was once her favorite follower, so she was a little sad when she died while still on the wrong path.

Eva and the other caretakers only stared at Gracie's corpse without saying a single word.

Were they happy?

Of course, they were happy!

They were delighted because no one would beat them up anymore from today onwards.

Not only that, but the orphanage would become a comfortable, peaceful and lively place again later.

Goddess Teressa shifted her gaze from Gracie's corpse to Ace and the others. "I will give you guys a reward for saving my orphanage."

The golden door suddenly opened, and four potions came out of the door. These four potions flew at Ace and the others before finally floating in front of them.

"These potions are your reward." Goddess Teressa began explaining the use of these four potions.

The potion in Ace's hand was to increase Mana Capacity level. The one in Scarlett's hand was to increase Agility level.

While the potions in Layla and Zaria's hands were to increase Strength level. They got different potions because they awakened different classes.

"Thank you, goddess Teressa." Layla and the others said in unison.

They did not drink the potion immediately because it was impolite to do that, so they decided to store it in their space rings.

"Ace, your contribution is big this time. Not only that, but you also treat the orphans and caretakers very well. I will give you a special reward for your actions." Goddess Teressa decided to give him another reward after remembering his contribution.

Ace's body suddenly glowed.

Layla and Scarlett were shocked.

'His body is glowing!'

They suddenly remembered the time when he became a unique magician because his body also glowed at that time.

As soon as Ace's body stopped glowing, a notification appeared.

[Congratulation! You have received a blessing from Goddess Teressa. You can now use magic without chanting and the mana consumption for performing magic will be reduced by 70 percent.]

Ace was pleasantly surprised after reading the notification.

'I got blessing from goddess Teressa?'

Previously, he thought he would get a card from her, but he was wrong.

Layla and the others did not know what special reward the goddess Teressa had given to Ace.

They wanted to ask about it, but they changed their minds because they were in front of goddess Teressa.

"Before I leave, let me heal your wounds first." Ace and the others were injured from fighting Gracie, so goddess Teressa wanted to heal their wounds.

As soon as she said that, golden rays shone on Ace, Layla, Scarlett and Zaria. In less than a minute, their injuries were completely healed, and they no longer felt any pain.

They even felt as if they did not have a fierce fight earlier because it felt like they had just woken up from a comfortable sleep.

"Alright, I will leave now." after goddess Teressa treated their injuries, the golden door disappeared without a trace.

After that, they freed everyone who was imprisoned by Gracie in the dungeon. These prisoners were thrilled when they found out that Gracie had died.

Not long after that, all the orphans returned. They were pleased when they saw Eva and the other caretakers.

But what made them happiest was that Eva said Gracie had left the orphanage and she would become the orphanage head again.

Even though Eva knew they also hated Gracie, but she decided to hide the truth because they were still kids.

After taking care of everything, Ace and the others left.

----

The following morning, Austyn and his underlings came to Goddess Teressa orphanage to avenge Gracie.

However, they failed to do that because Ace protected Eva and the others. Not only did they fail to avenge Gracie, but they also lost their lives.

Ace did not want something bad to happen to the caretakers and the orphans, so he decided to kill Austyn and his underlings.

As Ace was killing Austyn, many people came to the Hudson family.

The locals knew about their illegal business, and what they had been doing all this time, so they decided to destroy the Hudson family.

Darwin's wife died, and most of his subordinates were also killed by local residents.

His subordinates, who were still alive, left Herora city because they knew they would get killed if they stayed in Herora city.

----

Goddess Teressa Orphanage, Backyard.

"Haha." The backyard was filled with laughter.

Ace and the others were currently spending time in the backyard. They decided to hold a small party in the backyard because they wanted to create a good memory.

As the orphans were playing happily, Ace and the caretakers were sitting on the mats.

Eva, who was sitting in front of Ace, spoke abruptly. "Mister Ace, thank you for helping us."

"Mother Eva, you don't need to say it again." Ace told Eva to stop thanking him.

"But you really helped us." Eva responded, "I'm sure the orphans would still suffer if you did not help us."

"That's right." Alina added, "You are our savior, mister Ace."

"Ace, are you feeling shy?" Layla teased him.

"No." Ace responded instantly.

"You don't need to deny it, Ace. You are feeling shy, right?" Layla kept teasing her.

The corner of his lips twitched.

"Hehe." Layla and the others giggled happily when they saw his expression.

At the same time, Daniel walked toward Ace. "Big brother, let's play with us."

"Sure." Ace agreed instantly.

That day, Ace and the others were thrilled.

Even though they only held a small party in the backyard, it was memorable in their hearts.

Due to how happy they were, they even did not realize that they had been spending time in the backyard for six hours.

Because the sky was already dark, Ace and the others returned to their inn.

----

The following day, Ace and the others went to the Wynn trading house and the Goddess Teressa Orphanage to say goodbye.

Even though they still wanted to stay in Herora city, they had to return home because Scarlett had a lot of work.

Allan gave Ace a carriage because Nightshire city was far from Herora city. He also said he would visit Nightshire city if he had free time.

Ace accepted the carriage immediately. They could reach Nightshire city faster if they used a carriage.

Not only that, but they did not need to walk and could relax in the carriage later. That was why he accepted it happily.

When Ace bid goodbye to the orphans, Lisa and Daniel were sad and crying. They still wanted to play with him because they liked him.

Ace was a kind and gentle big brother in their eyes, so they wanted to keep spending time with him.

However, they knew that they could not stop him because his house was far from Herora city.

That was why they did not ask him to stay and only looked at him while crying.

Before Ace and the others left Herora city, Eva gave them many fruits. It would take them several days to reach Nightshire city, so it could be their provision on the road.

Ace and the others accepted it gladly. After waving goodbye, they left Herora city.

After traveling for several days, they finally arrived at Nightshire city. Ace and Scarlett went straight home after sending Layla home.

----

Scarlett's House, Ace's Bedroom.

Ace was currently in his room.

He immediately lay on his bed after taking a shower.

'I finally arrived home.'

He smiled softly as he looked at the ceiling.

'Wait!'

He immediately sat up when he remembered the potion given by goddess Teressa.

'I will drink the potion now.'

With that idea in mind, he retrieved the potion from his space ring.

*Gulp..Gulp..

The sound of him drinking the potion could be heard in her ears.

As soon as he finished drinking the potion, a notification appeared.

[Mana Capacity: Lvl 56 -> lvl 61]

Ace smiled happily when his Mana Capacity rose from level 56 to level 61.

Five level!

His Mana Capacity rose five levels just from drinking a potion.

Ace knew how difficult it was to increase one level, so gaining five levels instantly made his heart leap up for joy.

"My trip to Herora city was not in vain." After saying that, he lay on his back.

Even though he almost died several times, but he was much stronger now. Not only that, but he also had a lot of money now.

It could be said his journey to Herora city gave him a lot of benefits. He even could strengthen his relationship with Scarlett.

It was a big win for him!

"Speaking about her, I suddenly want to chat with her." After saying that, he got out of bed and headed to Scarlett's bedroom.

*Knock..Knock..Knock..

He knocked on the door after reaching her room.

'Where is she?'

He knocked on the door again.

Because she still did not open the door, he uttered, "Scarlett, it's me."

He kept knocking, but there was no answer.

'Is she not in her room?'

He began looking for her around the house.

He headed to the kitchen and family room, but he still did not see her. "Is she in her office?"

He immediately headed to her office.

"Scarlett, are you there?" Ace uttered after knocking on the door.

"The door is not locked." Scarlett's voice rang out from the opposite side of the door.

Ace wasted no time and immediately opened the door.

The expression of deep shock blossomed on his face when he saw her working on her desk. "We arrived home a few minutes ago, and you are already working?"historical

"It can't be helped. I was away from home for over a month, so I have so much work now." Scarlett answered in a tired tone.

Ace walked closer to her before finally speaking, "It's already 09:30 pm now. Can't you work tomorrow?"

"I'll be working for another twenty minutes. I want to finish this first." She uttered without looking at Ace.

Ace closed the door before finally sitting on the couch. He decided to accompany her because she still wanted to work.

Scarlett smiled softly when Ace wanted to accompany her. Her energy suddenly replenished, and she did not feel tired anymore.

'What a good lover!'

She worked passionately.

Time went by quickly, and without realizing it, twenty minutes had passed. Scarlett had finished her work, so she wanted to sleep.

She looked at him before finally speaking, "Ace, I have finished my work."

Ace rose to his feet and walked closer to her. "Then let's go to sleep."

Scarlett spread her arms and uttered, "Ace, carry me. I'm tired now. I can't move my legs."

"What a spoiled lady!" after saying that, he carried her in a princess style.

"Hehe." Scarlett giggled happily as they headed to her room.
