Ace couldn't help but feel extrely excited after he heard the system's explanation. He wasn't even the least bit jealous after he heard about what kind of existence Eva will beco, not to ntion terrifying.
He couldn't help but sneer at the system, "So, you're only doing this to let her enter the Thief House, huh? Then how about you increase the mber slots as well while you're at it!"
The thief hose was currently full, and to make more space, the existing mbers had to be at least 'Veteran mbers' before they had to complete a mission, and only then the thief house will have more mber spots.
But with how the world was looking for his traces, he didn't dare to let the house mbers take the risk of theft all over the place and put their lives in jeopardy.
Furthermore, only Winter was outside while the two others were within the thief's house space. He would never let them out in this kind of place.
But now that Eva was going to wake, he didn't want her to wait since, in a sense, she was his very first teammate and the one who proposed the formation of a thief team.
Still, he wasn't a blind fool and would only react according to the situation, and there was still the matter of Alina to tend to after this.
So, he will have to tread very carefully!
"[The system rules can never be altered!]" System emotionlessly replied!
"I guess then, one step at a ti!" Ace scowled but didn't push the topic since he was still happy about the System's help in this matter. He'll deal with the mber slots after he leaves this place.
At this mont, he heard the old ghost's voice again.
"Sigh… little Regal, forgive for this but know this, you'll be the only thing this King has as a good and warm mory. I know if I have told you, you would've still not hesitated, but I might've wavered after that… so this is goodbye, old friend… may you live we forever…" A rueful sigh escaped the hoarse voice, and for the first ti, Ace felt conflict and sorrow in his voice.
But it was rely fleeing as the voice returned to being icy cold, "I'll torture those bastards' souls for as long as I live and build a monunt of their corpses for you!"
Ace danger sense suddenly buzzed like crazy as the fake true soul suddenly started to tremble as if sothing wanted to break free from within, but to no avail.
At this mont, the fiendish face suddenly started to spread over the crimson true soul!
'He's absorbing the tower spirit!' Ace instantly guessed.
While the tower spirit was getting absorbed by the soul segnt, the broken mirror suddenly made a 'wu' 'wu' sounds before releasing a wisp of black smoke.
The black smoke ford a small humanoid figure. The voice of the old ghost suddenly resounded from the small figure made of black smoke.
"I can finally revive after waiting for thousands of years…" The voice was filled with mirth before it suddenly clapped its hands and started to mumble strange, incomprehensible words, like a chant.
The next mont, the black corporeal pillar where Ace was 'caged' started to turn into mist as all the mist suddenly ford a small vortex over Ace's forehead, and it drilled right into the fake true soul without Ace feeling anything.
But he didn't dare to show any sign of mistake because he knew this was the most crucial mont, and if he showed any sign of suspicion, the old ghost might spook out and do sothing excessive.
Ace could tell just how careful the other party was; it might not even trust the tower spirit completely and remain hidden in the mirror until the tower spirit's fate was completely sealed.
So, Ace showed so signs of struggling as it followed as the mist seeped into his forehead.
The chanting was becoming more and more vibrant as the mist was entering Ace's 'true soul.'
At the end of the chant, when only a small amount of that black mist remains, and the crimson true soul was not pitch black, the figure suddenly released its hand and roared solemnly, "…Sin Rebirth Scripture, the final phase, Sinful Rebirth!"
The next mont, the figure made of smoke turned into dark steak and directly shot toward the last bit of black mist, guided by an invisible suction force!
Within a few seconds, all the mist had entered the fake true soul, and Ace, whose eyes were closed all this ti, suddenly opened them, shimring with killing intent and ecstasy.
He never thought it would go so smoothly, and the other party didn't even hesitate to activate the final phase of the technique as if he was absolutely sure that nothing could go wrong after this point.
The system's emotionless voice rang at this ti, "[The primal soul had entered the fake true soul!]"
Afterward, a panel appeared as a notification rang,
=====
[Required 10 Million Thief Points to send the fake true soul into the broken mirror and activate the Void Abyssal Devil's Bloodline!]
[Continue]
[Ignore]
=====
Ace instantly continued without hesitation, and after the system deducted the TP.
=====
[Thief Point(s): 50,810,950]
=====
The fake true soul, which was now glowing in a sinter light, suddenly vanished from Ace's true soul and appeared right before his eyes!
The next mont, a dark blue chain suddenly shot out from his glabella and directly penetrated the fake true soul, and the next mont dark sheen enveloped the dark blue chain.
Ace was astonished since it was his first ti seeing this chain appearing from outside his body, and he didn't feel any discomfort. He even wanted to touch it but restrained himself since it might disrupt the system.
At this mont, a feeble and confused voice rang from the fake true soul, "Strange, why haven't my conscious started to rge with the body yet?"
Ace couldn't help curling his lips at this mont when he heard this voice. He knew this was the old ghost's voice. He icily jeered, "Ahh, Senior, how could you rge with my body when you're outside my true soul?"
Just as Ace's voice trailed off, the feeble voice rang again in horror, "Who?!"
Ace rely said three words with killing intent, "Your Fucking Death!"
