Eternal Thief

Chapter 645 Moon Fiend King’s Treasures! (1)



“[Although she is now the owner of this treasure, this doesn’t change the fact it is now an empty husk that had lost all of its previous function and power source, making it unable to travel between spaces.]

“[There’s probably only enough power left in the tower to perform one last teleportation for one last time before it will be lost all of its space type ability and turn into nothing but a Grade-8 treasure which is broken beyond repair!]”

Ace couldn’t help but complain, “One last teleportation? Then can Eva teleport us to Golden Sky World exactly?”

“[It’s all depend on her because she is the owner now.]”

Afterward, the system went dormant again, and no matter what Ace asked, it ignored him.

“You’re just as ‘reliable’ as ever.” Ace couldn’t help but grumble inwardly.

“Where are we, really? And why can I control this place?” Eva’s eyes were filled with curiosity as she looked at Ace with expectancy.

She was still annexing this strange place’s memories, and she knew it was not just a random space at all.

But the question was, how did they end up here?

She was getting more and more curious about what Ace had experienced while she was asleep.

Ace couldn’t help but feel a sense of reminiscence when he saw Eva’s curious expression. She was just as curious as he remembered her to be.

“Alright, I’ll tell you about where we are and how I got here. The other details have to wait… so I entered a space crack and entered this underground tunnel….”

Ace started to tell her about his experience in this secret realm where the treasure, Regal Fiend Tower, was located and what this tower was actually doing, and the scheme of Old Ghost Moon Fiend…

Eva attentively listened, and the more she heard, the more she felt shocked about Ace’s adventure. But when she heard about how the old ghost Moon Fiend wanted to revive using Ace’s body, her crimson eyes suddenly excluded thick killing intent and bloodlust that startled even Ace.

“You let him off too easily!” She coldly stated.

Ace smiled wryly, “I can’t take any risk, you know. He was probably an old monster from some other world, and he was simply too careful. He even sacrificed the tower spirit, and until the end, the tower spirit didn’t find that he was just a sacrificial lamb. If I had shown even a tiny bit of resistance or acted out of the place, he would become instantly suspicious of me.”

He then smiled gently while he looked at the angry Devil, “But it was all worth it since I got to wake you, and getting devoured by you could be said an act of revenge on my part. Now you are the owner of this tower, so I want you to teleport away to the main continent.”

Eva’s rage calmed a bit when she heard this, and she couldn’t help but admire Ace because of how he tricked an old monster into his own death.

Eva scrutinized, ‘The one backing him is probably not just a random god.’

She had some doubt before about this ‘god’ behind Ace.

Because in her Blood Heritage, she also got small memories about ‘God,’ and she clearly knew just what a ‘God’ represents. But in this place, it was pitifully impossible to draw a real ‘God’s attention and even make it help a mortal like Ace.

She even felt this ‘God’ was tricking Ace into doing his bidding, so she secretly decided to ‘save’ him once she got stronger from this ‘God.’

However, now, she didn’t know anymore and decided to wait and see what would happen. Since this ‘God’ helped her achieve such a bloodline, she was also grateful, but it doesn’t mean she will let anything happen to Ace.

She even had a secret method within her memories to get rid of anyone’s detection or any kind of curse or spell, even Gods!

But she needed cultivation far higher than 1st Heaven’s limitation to use that method, so she decided just to go ahead and follow Ace and monitor his or that ‘God’s every action.

If she found even the slightest bit of danger to Ace, she would not hesitate to get rid of this ‘God.’

Her thorough process and reactions were so natural that even someone like Ace, who was master at hiding his true intentions, didn’t notice anything out of the blue.

If he had known what Eva was thinking, he would’ve definitely facepalmed himself and scolded her since he had just told her not to try anything dangerous again. But she was still thinking of scheming against a ‘God,’ nevertheless!

The truth was scheming was the Devil’s second nature, and they couldn’t change it or suppress it, and this nature only intensified as the stronger their bloodline.

Eva was no different.

Eva asked, “Do you really want to leave and not explore this tower? There might be hidden treasures of that old monster, right? But, if we leave, we might not ever come back again, and those treasures will be gone forever.”

Ace thought for a moment before his lips curled up and nodded, “Alright, there’s no harm in exploring a bit, and I also think that guy might have arranged a few treasures for his rebirth. Let’s plunder it all.”

Ace looked at Eva’s happy expression and couldn’t help but bitterly think, ‘I still have to tell her about living in the thief’s space until she reaches the 8th Realm in cultivation, so I might as well spend some time with her in this place.

‘Then there’s still the matter of Thief House, as well as Alina’s situation. I had told her about Alina so she would not react much. But the problem is Thief House members. She might outright try to kill them or me….’

Ace felt a chill in his spine when he thought about that killing intent she emitted just a few moments ago. And she was just a mortal in cultivation terms. He didn’t dare to imagine just how terrifying will she become once she started cultivating.

‘No, I must find a way to explain it to her as gently as possible, or a calamity awaits me.’ Ace bound his resolved as he looked at the Devil.

He wasn’t even afraid of Heaven, but he was definitely scared of making her heartbroken and her crazy personality.

“Let’s go. Why are you looking pale?” She looked at him confusingly.

Ace quickly hid his unease and nodded with a smile, “Let’s find some treasures.”

Eva giggled and locked her arm with Ace’s, and they started to walk toward the open door.

Ace suddenly thought of something and looked at her crimson crown and runes as well as her eyes which were actually like the Imperial Demon Family members.

“Is that crown and runes your racial trail?” He asked curiously.

Eva nodded, “Anyone with Abyssal Bloodline will have this ‘Abyssal Crown,’ and the runes are ‘True Devil’s Runes.’ Both of them have different uses.”

Ace was intrigued, “What uses?”

“It’s a secret, for now. Hehe.” Eva mysteriously snickered.

“Tsk, now you’re just being a miser,” Ace commented with slightly narrow eyes.

“Then what can you do about it?” Eva seductively looked at him as she licked her crimson lips with her pink tongue.

“Hmph, vixen!” He couldn’t help but click his tongue.

Eva’s melodious peal of laughter rang within the empty hall.

At this moment, they reached the entrance of the open door, and Ace’s eyes narrowed in astonishment while Eva also seemed shocked.

Because in front of them was over five hundred square meters wide hall, and it was filled with crimson mannequins standing in orderly rows, and they were thousands of them.

Ace instantly recognized those mannequins, “They are Trial Puppets used by the Tower Spirit to test the contenders on each floor, and they are so many of them!”

Eva’s expression turned cold as he revealed, “This place is filled with the potent smell of blood, and if I’m wrong, they are ‘Low-Grade Blood Puppets!’ Made after refining dead bodies in their own blood.

“It’s an extremely sinister method of the unorthodox path. These blood puppets’ cultivation should be around one or two realms lower than when they were alive, and not only that, they should also have their battle experience.” .

Ace cocked an eyebrow when he heard about this ‘Blood Puppet’ description.

“You mean like Corpse Puppets?” He couldn’t help but think of the awakened corpse army in the demon continent when he stumbled upon the site of Ice Element Orb, and that’s how he met with Winter as well.

“You even know about the Corpse Puppets?” Eva seemed astonished and looked at Ace deeply, “It seemed this adventure wasn’t the only interesting one up in your sleeve, huh?”

“It was alright, I guess.” Ace smiled wryly and thought bitterly, ‘If I left that annoying Fox out of it, then it was really alright!’
