Alina was startled when she heard the arrogant voice. Her eyes narrowed dangerously, and she asked through telepathy, "Were you referring to ?"
"Who else? I didn't expect a Celestial Titan to not even know about the bonding ritual, and you haven't even started to cultivate yet. It seems the Celestial Titan has fallen while I was sleeping. How disappointing." The Calamity Star Sword's treasure spirit, Star, expressed disappointnt.
"It seed you weren't taught any manners!" Alina coldly stated as she clearly didn't like Star's tone.
"Hehehe, what are you going to do about it, huh? Bite ? I bet you can't even summon now, not to ntion you are simply too weak to wield . Rember, girl, only the strong are respected, while the weak are trampled on by the strong. Talk to when you have the power to summon ; I'm going to sleep. Tsk, what a letdown." Star stated disdainfully, and her tone was filled with disappointnt.
"What's wrong?" Ace's voice rang again at this mont before Alina could retort because he saw Alina's deep frown.
Alina didn't know what to say since Star wasn't entirely wrong; she had just completed the bloodline sweep and wasn't familiar with her prowess, and Eva was also listening, so she wouldn't admit that she just got trash talk by her own weapon.
"Everything is fine. My weapon just told how grateful it is to have as her owner." She lied as if it was the most natural thing to do while she swore to properly educate this arrogant weapon spirit once she sorted out everything.
She then changed the topic, "Anyway, when can I et you? I have to properly thank you for giving all these opportunities. I don't think it's a big deal. You said there are only five law-state cultivators in this city, right? Why don't you let us go through this tribulation? Once we stabilize our powers, I'm sure we can easily overpower them or at least make them hesitate to attack us." She stated confidently while glancing at Eva with a provocation look.
Eva's eyes also widened slightly as she said, "I hate to admit it, but she has a point. I'm sure they won't be foolish enough to barge into our heavenly tribulation if they know their terror. We can even use heavenly tribulation to create an opening in their defensive system."
However, Ace quickly rejected their idea, "No, I know better than anyone just how powerful a heavenly punishnt could be. Although you two will be going through a weaker version, I won't let you take this risk until I'm sure I can protect you if soone untoward happens.
"Furthermore, it isn't like we didn't have any other option. In fact, just wait a few more days, and more spots in the Thief House will open. Then you two can join as well if you want.
"In the anwhile, I want you two to think carefully about whether you really want to join the thief's house or remain independent. It might have many benefits, but it also puts great restrictions on its mbers.
"I know you guys won't listen to , but I just want you to think it one last ti. Alina should also be able to familiarize herself with her bloodline by that ti. Moreover, these spirit stones seed pretty important, so we can't miss them out since we are literally sitting on them!" Ace declared in an irrefutable tone.
"There is no need to think it over; as your 'First Wife,' I'll be joining you no matter what. Oh, and you can't back away from your promise of making the Vice Leader!" Eva declared. She especially emphasized the words 'First Wife' and 'Vice Leader' despite the latter being a blunt lie, which made Ace smile wryly since he knew she was doing it to provoke Alina.
And she succeeded when Alina's expression went dark after she heard this. Glaring at Eva, she said, "I'm also joining no matter what. As for the positions of First Wife and Vice Leader, only soone competent will keep them!"
Both goddesses-like won glared at each other, and there were sparks in the air.
"Ahem, let's talk about it when the ti cos. For now, we need to be civil. Oh, and Alina, I also want to ask you if you know about the cultivation realms of law state and what kind of bloodline you have?" Ace changed the topic before these two destroyed his precious thief's space. He also wanted to know more about Alina's bloodline, especially about that jade scroll.
Alina reluctantly broke eye contact with Eva and replied, "I don't have inherited mories like this she-devil over there. But Star… I an the Calamity Star Sword, just called by the bearer of Celestial Titan Bloodline. As for the realms of law state, I think there might be so information in the jade scroll you just gave .
"Because the mont it entered my head, I can feel sothing foreign inside my head and as long as I focus on it, I should be able to tell you what's inside."
She truthfully replied before she again glanced at Eva, who was also interested in this information and coolly said, "That's why if you can ask a certain soone to leave my house for so ti so that I can focus on it. It'll be helpful."
"Hmph, who wants to be in the sa space as you?" Eva retorted before Ace could say another and vanished from the room. She was clearly displeased.
Ace couldn't help but smile wryly as she knew he had to cox the devil later now. He said to Alina, who had a victorious smile on her charming face, "Take your ti, and if you need anything, just call my na, and I'll be here for you."
"I will." Alina nodded gently as the fighting intent her eyes were nowhere to be seen.
"Wow, what a lodrama. I never expected a Celestial Titan to stoop to so low as to marry a Bigamist!" Star's jeering voice rang in Alina's head again, making the latter grimace.
"Shut up! No one asked for your opinion!" She coldly berated.
"Hehehe, I wasn't giving my opinion to begin with; I was just stating what I've seen," Star replied, clearly enjoying Alina's reaction.
'As if that she-devil wasn't enough!' Alina didn't know what to say anymore and simply decided to ignore this eccentric, disrespectful weapon spirit. She would get back at it once she had enough power!
After interacting with Eva and Alina, Ace was clearly in a good mood, especially since Alina had woken up.
Ace then thought for a mont before he decided to test sothing. The next mont, Cyrus suddenly appeared on top of his shoulder!
