The top ten thousand participants were dropped outside a grand hotel, which was spread over three-thousand acres. This grand hotel was the most luxurious hotel in the inner domain and the most expensive one at that. But all the accommodations for them were free because of obvious reasons.
Ace and Thomas also parted ways because Milly was staying with Maddux inside the blade castle and soone was here to pick him up, Thomas also wanted Ace to co with him, but he rejected under the farce of his maids were coming here as well, and he can’t abandon them.
But the real reason was he won’t be able to move around freely if he entered the demon castle, and he wasn’t here to rob that place, or he might’ve considered it.
After bidding Thomas farewell, he first found his room on the first floor, and it was the most expensive room, with both a high-end cultivation chamber and a laboratory inside. And all the top hundred contestants were given such rooms.
This was also Ace’s first ti seeing a laboratory. He can use it for alchemy, crafting, or rune crating with different arrays engraved in this room, and this beca his new favorite place.
He was practically none exhausted because this first phase wasn’t much of a challenge to him, and he only did this to enter the inner domain with Feng’s identity, or he could’ve just sneaked in.
‘I have wasted 152 days playing around, and only 348 days left before my mission’s deadline. Although I got Eternal Thief Fate Compass and also find a silver fate location, I still wasted ti.
‘And If I go into this second phase, I would waste even more ti and in the last phase, I’m pretty such Demon King would monitor it himself, or he might monitor from the second phase, especially the top hundred contestants.
‘I have been controlling my kill points all this ti and remained at the top because I wanted the prestige that cos with it and makes Feng even more untouchable. But it can also backfire,’ Ace mused as he lay on the comfortable bed.
Although everything was moving smoothly and according to his assumptions, he didn’t have absolute control over everything, and with the slightest mishap, everything he worked for will collapse.
Ace suddenly think of sothing and a small triangular shape token appeared in his hand. His eyes shone ambiguously as he muttered, “I should first et with that Lionheart Shop’s owner and see how reliable that All-Knowing Parrot is before deciding to take any further action against him.”
Ace clearly rembered his first conversation with All-Knowing Parrot, and he asked him to go to this shop with this token if he required anything or any kind of exchange.
Although this offer was quite tempting for him, this would also put him in a disadvantageous position while the other part will stay in dark and monitor him.
But this didn’t worry him too much, nor he was afraid of any hexes because of the system and All-Knowing Parrot didn’t want an enemy like him either so even if he did sothing it won’t be too excessive. Then there was the upcoming face-to-face eting between them.
So Ace wanted to see the actual worth of the All-Knowing Parrot before deciding what to do with him.
In the evening, his two demon maids in flowery robes, Flora and Dolly, also arrived in his room, but their expressions were extrely downcast and Ace instantly notice it.
“Did sothing happen while I was gone?” He asked with narrowed eyes.
Ace knew Flora and Dolly can’t sche against him because of their stupid oath, and they were completely loyal to him.
Flora’s eyes suddenly turn teary, but she said nothing, but her Qi suddenly surge before a dark red mark appeared on her forehead and she squealed before it vanished, and she kneeled on the floor with an ashen expression.
Ace instantly identified that mark and his expression turn frosty. “Soone forced you to sign a slave contract, and they wanted you to hurt ?”
Both of them nodded furiously as tears flow out of their eyes. It was clear they can’t tell him this. That was why Flora used her cultivation to slightly resist the slave contract and the mark beca apparent, so Ace could see it while she also suffered a backlash.
Ace asked, “Let guess it was soone from four blade clans?”
He knew only those four clans were darning enough to do such a thing in blade domain, and they were the only enemy he had here, and he never thought after failing in the shadow mountain range they still won’t give up.
They both had bewildered expressions on their faces, hearing this.
“Sigh… so they didn’t tell you, huh, but I’m sure it was them. Just tell , if you can, how powerful the slave contract was?” Ace asked coldly.
Flora quickly said, “It was high grade-2… I think. I’m not sure, since I have never seen a higher-level contract.”
Ace suddenly smile hearing this and two thin black sheets appeared in his hand, “The easy way to break the slave contract is to destroy the dium. But there’s another way I found recently. It is to override the slave contract with another slave contract, but it has to be a higher grade one from the slave contract you have already been enslaved with.
“These are both low-grade four slave contracts I recently got from a dead rich scion. Just drop your blood on it, and you’ll be freed from your slave imprints.”
Ace had naturally found this loophole in wild tribes’ youths’ mories and these contracts from Santos’s storage ring. He never thought of override a slave contract was even possible, and it would co in handy so quickly.
The two sisters’ eyes shimred with excitent as they quickly do what they were told and drop their blood on both contracts. Before long, dark red marks appeared on their forehead and vanished before new crimson marks appeared.
Ace was slightly astonished and smiled, “See, now you’re free. Keep these two contract diums with you. This way, no one could enslave you as long as they didn’t have an interdiate grade-4 slave contract.”
However, Flora and Dolly didn’t take them and said with a pleading expression, “Please keep them, we’re both dumb so if we lose them in the future we’ll suffer calamity, so they will be safer with you, and besides we already your maids it doesn’t matter if you enslave us or not.”
Ace thought about it seriously and this made sense, so he stored those two slave contracts away to keep them safe.
Slave Contracts were mostly used to control living beings or put restrictions on them, so as long as he didn’t use the contract to control both sisters’ actions, it doesn’t matter to them if they were enslaved or not.
“Now, tell what happened and when?” Ace grimly questioned again.
Both sisters gnashed their teeth as they rembered what had happened one month before.
It turned out that an extrely strong masked individual broke into their room at night, and he forced them to sign slave contracts even before they could commit suicide.
After they were both bonded by the slave contract, it was extrely easy to control their actions, and they were instructed to wait until Feng ca back from the shadow mountain range.
p、and a-n、o、vel It was just yesterday that the sa person approached them again and give them further instructions.
First, they had to give Feng a mysterious pill without being noticed by him, and after he took that pill; they had to lead him toward the west district of the inner domain, toward a specific inn.
Second, they would show a token given to them by that mysterious demon to the inn manager. Lastly, they had to kill five demons staying in that place before returning with their heads and hiding them under Feng’s bed.
Ace’s expression was extrely frosty as he heard this plan, which will not only ruin Feng’s public image, he would’ve suffered terrible consequences at the hands of the law enforcent departnt of the inner domain and might even be detained.
Afterward, it was extrely easy to deal with him and killed him inside the prison and no one would ever know how he died.
As for that mysterious pill, it was an extrely powerful poison that will block his ridians for a day before it’ll vanish without any trace.
This was a perfect sche to capture him within the law and the demon king won’t interfere as well.
But they never would’ve thought those two maids would not only reveal their slave marks despite the terrible backlash, but Ace would easily override the slave contracts as well.
Even if Ace would’ve taken that poison pill, it would never work on him and only given him EXP. This plan would’ve never succeeded.
“If I’m not wrong, the West District is under the Evil Blade Clan’s control. I should visit that place…” A forbidding smile erged on Ace’s face!
