Eternal Thief

Chapter 1149: Entering the House Leader Chamber!



After the recruitment ceremony was done, Eva and Alina were endlessly curious about the functions of the thief's house and their individual thief shops.

Furthermore, when they both learn that they have to become 'Veteran Members' before they can accept any thief acolyte, both women are filled with indignation, but they can do nothing about it, and they decide to quickly start working so they won't be outshined by the old members of the thief house.

Moreover, Freya instantly requested to accept Thief Acolytes from Ace, who was naturally Aliya and Thomas, because she knew they had been with Ace all this time and resided in the living space ring now in Alina's possession.

After all, Aliya was a close aide to Freya, and she had known her since forever. She had also worked with Thomas and knew he was competent and talented. She knew that since Ace cared about Thomas, he would accept her request to have him as a Thief Acolyte, and Thomas would not go against Ace's decision.

Just as she thought, Ace quickly agreed to her and asked Alina to take Aliya and Thomas out of her space ring, which also carried her entire Silver Ice Hunter Clan, as well as her close friend and royal maid, Lillian.

Once Aliya and Thomas appeared in the thief's house, they were shocked when they noticed Ace and other members of the thief's house. Freya didn't waste her time but quickly gave an overview of the thief's Acolytes and asked them to join her.

Aliya instantly agreed without hesitation, while Thomas, on the other hand, after regaining his calm, first asked Ace for his opinion. The latter naturally told him everything and gave him the freedom to join or leave the thief's house and explore the new heaven.

After all, Ace never considered Thomas his underling. As his only friend, he gave him the freedom to decide what he wanted. But he also told him he needed to wait some time before they were in a better and safer place where he could drop him off.

But Ace still wanted Thomas to join the thief's house so he could remain safe and help him. However, to everyone's surprise, Thomas decided to join the thief's house as a thief acolyte but not as an Evil Thief Acolyte, but instead a Thief Assassin Acolyte under Noa!

The reason he gave was that he didn't like to pursue so many schemes, and he had honed his craft of killing when he exacted his revenge in the demon continent, so he was already walking the path of an assassin. So was his reason for following Noa since he could slightly sense vague kindred from Noa while the latter could clearly tell that Thomas was really suitable and worthy of having a subordinate.

In the end, under Freya and Aliya's begrudging look, Noa accepts Thomas, which makes them both acquire a thief acolyte. Winter slightly panicked when she saw both of her peers had acquired a thief acolyte while virtually doing nothing.

She even cussed herself for not having an eye for people, and now she was eager to go out in search of her own acolytes to start her far... ahem, nurture excellent acolytes quickly.

However, before they all officially enter the Mortal Ascension Heaven, everyone needs to absorb their gains and familiarize themselves with their new cultivation techniques and spirit Qi, including Ace.

This was especially the case for Eva, who noticed the changes happening in her body. The restraints on her were breaking, as she could sense she was officially stepping into the law state since the need for heavenly tribulation was finally gone.

Furthermore, she also acquired the remaining blood of the Vampyre Clan from Ace so she could fully evolve into Void Abyssal Devil and fix the chaotic state of her blood.

Because the solution system gave her the required 1 Billion HP, which was simply out of her reach, even Ace couldn't afford this much. However, the system also hinted at another solution, which made Ace remember the time he was going to give her the Vampyre Blood. The system revealed to him that he shouldn't since the thief's space wouldn't be able to handle her full evolution.

This is how the meeting between the old and new members lasted for a few hours before it finally came to a conclusion. Everyone returned to their own individual cultivation chamber, and some headed towards the second floor to use the facilities.

Ace also headed towards his own House Leader Chamber, which seemed to have independent facilities for every function on the second floor of the thief's house, which brought him huge relief. After all, as a leader, he can't fight with his own house members for a spot in those facilities.

Furthermore, something unexpected yet expected occurred when he was moving towards his grand house leader chamber; two women decided to infiltrate it, completely ignoring their own newly opened private chambers.

But a fight almost breaks out among them when they both find that both of them have the same mindset, and Ace quickly agrees to let them live with him if they promise not to fight each other, or they can't enter, and he has to use his full willpower to persist before they reluctantly agreed.

However, Eva was still indignant and berated Ace for acknowledging her as his legal wife even though the system had acknowledged her last name was exactly his. This made Alina grit her teeth again, yet she was also secretly pleased that Ace didn't disseminate among them.

Even Ace had to admit that Eva was right, and he had missed this little detail and was extremely embarrassed, but he knew if he didn't placate both women, one of them would continue to make everyone's life miserable, so keeping them by his side and enduring their little tantrum was still acceptable.

Under their bickering, the grand door of the House Leader Chamber suddenly opened when Ace approached it and showed his interest in entering.

Everyone turned silent when they saw behind that door an extremely breathtaking landscape made with neon crystal floor, filled with dense primordial/heavenly Spirit Qi.

Although this space was the same size as the thief's space, it was completely different from the house member chambers, which were simple. At the edges of the space were rising massive columns of ethereal crystal, with starry waterfalls flowing among them endlessly from the dark starry sky on the ceiling. Those stars seemed to be making the shape of his thief symbol.

Right in the center of this dreamy landscape was a dark blue crystal castle, glowing under the starry sky with fields of crystal!
