Eternal Thief Chapter 648 Don't Borrow Trouble!

After Eva went into the secret room, Ace was closely looking at the fate map with a sowhat worried expression. But the map was only showing golden color, nothing else.

However, shortly after Eva went inside, the golden color, as well as the compass arrow, vanished without a trace, and a new compass arrow took its place, which was at the edge of the map pointing in the east direction.

This made Ace frown, but he didn't panic since he could still feel Eva was completely fine. And a few monts later, Ace couldn't help but smile in relief because he could feel Eva was getting closer.

Thereupon, Eva appeared right in front of him with this proud enthralling smile, but she was also sowhat pale and exhausted.

Ace quickly approached her and fondly said, "You work hard."

"Hmph! No, so smug, aren't we?" Eva retorted with fake egotism. The ecstasy in her eyes couldn't be clearer.

"Alright, I admit that I can't defeat your Divine Trait, and I'll be relying on you from now on." Ace helplessly surrendered.

Eva giggled in elation, "Hehe, since you're being so sincere, here's your reward."

She held her fist hand toward Ace's, and he received a smooth tallic object the mont Eva opened her closed fist.

It was a black ring with a crimson ruby embedded in it, and Ace's eyes instantly lit up when he guessed what this ring might be.

Eva smilingly said, "There was only a small room, and this ring was lying on a small column. But there were tons of dangerous traps there. That old bastard really was paranoid and petty.

"If not for my Deific Shadow state, this ring would've been destroyed before anyone could touch it, even if soone avoided all those traps by a miracle.

"But I'm afraid there's an extrely complex locking seal on this ring, and it's highly likely a storage ring. Sadly, I can't bypass locks on the storage space treasures since I can't physically enter a storage ring as long as it isn't a living storage space."

Ace shook his head and gently said, "You have already done a huge favor by retrieving this ring. Leave the opening of this ring to , and we will divide everything equally."

"Can you really open it?" Eva asked doubtfully.

Ace rely smiled mysteriously, and afterward, he instantly transmitted his voice to the system, "System, open this storage ring!"

However, his smile disappeared when,

"[You need to Upgrade the System to Open this Storage Ring with Thief Points!]"

"Is it because its grade is higher than Grade-9?" Ace asked with a regretful tone.

"[Yes!]"

Ace could only sigh after he heard the affirmative answer, but he wasn't too worried since this also ant this storage ring might hold nurous treasures far above the grades of Mortal Sky Heaven.

So, this storage ring will co in handy once he upgrades the system.

"Umm… dear, it seems I need so ti before I open it, but I can open it. Just not now." He then dryly told Eva, who was looking at him with great anticipation.

It was simply too embarrassing to be failed in front of his woman. He lost too much face.

Eva rolled her eyes and teased, "Only a big talker!"

"I'm not!" Ace angrily retorted as he blad the system for this humiliation.

So, he quickly changed the topic, "You look pale. It seems you need to rest, and it's also about the ti I tell you sothing since we need to leave this place soon."

Eva's jolly expression changed when she noticed Ace's gloomy tone and couldn't help but look at him with doubt.

"You don't need to worry about . Just tell what you want. I can now bear your burden." She confidently declared.

Ace smiled wryly and said, "It's actually about that. The thing is, you can't appear in the Golden Sky World until you reach Law Comprehension Realm."

Eva's eyes winded in disbelief, "But why? Do you still think of as a burden!"

Ace quickly denied with a stern look, "I have never thought of you as a burden. But this is about your safety. Hear first before you say anything…"

He then started to tell her about what System told him about the [Natural Order] and how she would be in danger if she got noticed by it.

Eva attentively listened with a sowhat disbelief expression. But she could tell Ace wasn't lying to her.

pαпdα Йᴏνê|,сòМ In the end, she looked deeply at Ace and said, "Although I don't know about this [Natural Order], I do know about the hierarchy of the Abyssal Race.

"Since I have the complete inheritance of the Shadow Abyssal Devil Clan, even my clansn will not hesitate to refine to strengthen their bloodline since I'm not an intrinsic born.

"There are also many uses of a complete abyssal bloodline, but I never thought there's such a thing as [Natural Order] which can reveal my identity. It seed the entity behind you is not as simple as you make it." She narrowed her eyes at Ace.

Ace didn't deny it, "You can say that, and it has never been wrong before, so you have lived in that space for a while, and I'm sure it won't be long before you walk freely again."

'There's still a chance with the thief's house. But I can't tell her right now because there's no spot left, and she might outright start a fight with if she knows those existing three spots are all filled by three won.' Ace felt chills just thinking about it.

Eva, on the other hand, had no idea what Ace thought, so she nodded, "Alright, since I'll be with you, it doesn't matter if I live in that space for a while longer. You might fall into trouble because of if I draw the attention of so powerful entities."

Ace felt massive relief when Eva agreed without making it difficult for him. He was getting anxious for nothing.

He then suddenly thought of sothing as he said, "Besides, you won't be living alone in there. There's soone else who will accompany you beside ."

Eva asked with narrowed eyes, "Who? Is this a girl?"

Ace instantly denied it, "Of course not!"

Eva's eyes instantly eased when she got the answer.

Ace then flipped his hand before a small black bird with a tiny feather crown appeared in his hand. As he looked around with its tiny gem-like curious eyes. He was Cyrus!

Eva's eyes instantly lit up when she saw the little cut fellow, "This is?"

"You can speak, Cyrus. Introduce yourself." Ace smilingly encouraged.

Previously, he told Cyrus not to speak in front of anyone unless he told him, so he won't speak unless he got Ace's approval, like now.

Cyrus then curiously looked at Eva and said in his childish sweet voice, "Nice to et you. I am Cyrus!"

Eva was stunned for a mont before she exclaid, "A Magic Beast that can talk despite being this small and weak. His bloodline has to be terrifying!"

Ace felt great pride when she praised Cyrus since he was his pet, and his bloodline was also quite terrifying. There was no question about it.

However, when Cyrus prattled, Ace's expression instantly wrapped and lost all colors.

Cyrus frivolously asked while looking at Eva, "Bro is this Big Sister Winter that Big Sister Freya n…"

Before he could finish those words, he vanished.

But alas, the damage was already done!
