Capítulo 1336: Chapter 742: The Incredible Phantom Thief (Part 2)
“Adaptation is not the sa as fabrication, elaboration is different from fabrication.”
Fanny’s slightly puzzled voice echoed in Dorothy’s mind.
“Dorothy, why are you asking this? Did you see sothing strange?”
Her voice suddenly turned excited.
As a professional rry Maker, senior Fanny’s intuition in this area is always particularly keen. Even though the Hobody Witch just casually asked, she imdiately got excited.
“No, no, we’re watching the sa show. If a big shot like you didn’t see anything, what could I possibly see?”
Dorothy quickly denied.
Alright, now it’s confird. Even senior Fanny didn’t see the mysterious intrusion of Miss Phantom Thief, which ans Miss Phantom Thief is almost certainly of Sage Level.
As for why she could see her, the Hobody Witch thought it might be related to her innate Natural Saint Destiny Pattern.
Maybe the Sage, upon seeing her, thought she was also a fellow rry Maker who enjoys playing dumb to outsmart others?
But co on, big shots, I really am just a pig here. You all play your gas, don’t mind .
Yes, I didn’t see anything, didn’t hear anything, I’ve been focusing on watching the show all along.
The Hobody Witch quietly restrained her mind, pretending nothing happened.
Kidding, anything involving Sage Level big shots is not sothing a little witch like her should ss with. She’s genuinely on vacation this ti, just wanting to enjoy a peaceful and normal sumr.
Since she’s here in the city of arts, isn’t it aningful unless she ets so popular witch celebrities or does so street shooting of pretty girls?
Yes, anyway, this ti I won’t get involved. If anyone dares to drag into trouble, be careful, I’ll report to the authorities!
Hmph, do you know who my sister is? I don’t care if you’re a Peak or a Sage; when my sister arrives, you won’t have a good ti.
Dorothy firmly thought in her heart now.
This peaceful vacation, she’s determined to have it, even if Lord Demon King himself cos, it won’t work.
She looked at her heart where the “God above Gods” UR Level Talent shone, feeling much more at ease inside.
Though the description of this talent is mysteriously profound like a riddle, and she doesn’t know what it truly does, the Hobody Witch doesn’t dare to test it randomly. But every ti she sees this titled talent gleaming in her heart, she is filled with a strong sense of security.
I’m not to be trifled with, do you know I have soone backing ?
Even according to the description of this talent, it seems like she’s on the higher side, but when thinking about the only possible origin of this talent, Dorothy says she doesn’t dare to think about it; she truly doesn’t dare to think about it.
In short, nobody should say anything out of line; my sister is the eternal divine, Dimon.
Thus, silently offering a sincere prayer inside her heart, Dorothy felt much more assured.
She continued watching the performance, and later, when Hers’s gaze once again swept over the audience below, Dorothy noticed that the place where Miss Phantom Thief was had already beco empty.
Also, whether it was her sincere prayer to her sister that truly worked is unknown.
Anyway, the subsequent performance surprisingly went very smoothly.
Soon, the plot reached a climax, as the Devil Girl and Lying Girl continued to stir things up, the atmosphere in Night City gradually beca filled with tension, and everyone turned quite irritable.
The whole city could be said to have transford into a powder keg ready to explode at any mont, just waiting for soone suitable to light the fuse, then it would go boom…
And the person who would light the fuse soon appeared.
No one knows how Miss Phantom Thief appeared, who she is, where she ca from, or her purpose.
All this is a mystery.
She seed to suddenly appear in this world, as if she genuinely had no past since there are no traces of her past prior to this.
The beginning was just when Night City was living normally one day and suddenly realized it was “raining” from the sky.
Hmm, a shower of letters.
Countless envelopes scattered and fell from the sky like rain, even though there was nobody up there scattering the letters.
Moreover, after the envelopes landed on the ground, they would disappear like raindrops, as if it was all an illusion.
Only if soone reached out and caught one of those envelopes would they find it was truly real.
You can normally open the envelope and find there genuinely is a letter inside.
A letter of prophecy.
“Good morning, Night City.”
“I am Heart Thief Jack, drawn by the voice of desire from each of your hearts.”
“But that’s not important. What matters is that I will fulfill your inner desires and do sothing you wish to do but dare not.”
“The treasure of the Thirteen Vampire Clan Families – the Ancestor Gem, what a fabulous gem it is, no wonder the Thirteen Clan have been nurturing it with the resentnt from the entire city over the years.”
“However, after tonight, it’s going to be mine.”
“Vampire Clan witches, you’d better give it your all, or I’ll unceremoniously take your hearts.”
“Above”
“So, everyone, see you tonight.”
Hmm, this was the content of the prophecy note.
Initially, the witches of Night City weren’t particularly concerned. They just thought it was another new prank soone was pulling.
Although the thod this ti was quite novel, how could stealing the Vampire Clan’s secret treasure possibly be done?
The existence of the Ancestor Gem isn’t exactly a secret here in Night City.
Legend says it’s the treasure that manifested from the powerful force of the first Vampire Clan Witch, Lady Lilith of the Red Moon, after descending into eternal sleep.
The crimson gem contains the mystery of advancing the power of the Vampire Clan. If anyone were to inherit the gem’s strength, they might beco a new True Ancestor, gaining a shortcut to the Sage position.
Anyway, it’s quite mystical, but nobody among the Thirteen Vampire Clan Families has been able to inherit the True Ancestor’s power within up to now.
So, this secret treasure is usually hidden in the Holy Land of the Vampire Clan witches, in the blood pool within the Hall of Holy Blood at the center of Night City.
But what kind of place is the Hall of Holy Blood? It’s the place where ancient Vampire Clan Elders choose to slumber.
And it’s the shared slumber place for the Thirteen Clans.
Actually, the Thirteen Vampire Clan Families aren’t all harmonious with each other; it’s even said their relations are quite bad, frequently engaging in infighting.
But only in the Hall of Holy Blood do all clans temporarily set aside their grudges, no matter how deep they run.
So those ancient Vampire Clan Elders choose to ld again, sleeping within their own blood coffins, researching the mysteries of magic.
And the Vampire Clan’s history is older even than the witch’s; who knows how many old monsters are hidden within the Hall of Holy Blood?
The Vampire Clan’s secret treasure, the True Ancestor Blood Gem, lies under the guard of these many sleeping old monsters’ blood crowns, which makes stealing it nearly impossible unless soone stronger than all the Vampire Clan Elders combined attempts it.
Simply put, it’s sothing almost impossible to achieve.
Everyone in Night City thought so, including those Thirteen Vampire Clan Families targeted for the theft. Right then, so Vampire Clan witches proudly claid that the so-called Phantom Thief of the Heart was just a crowd-pleasing clown.
But while they were laughing, the loss of the Ancestor Gem couldn’t be risked; the Thirteen Vampire Clan Families imdiately dispatched their family experts to surround the outside of the Hall of Holy Blood, setting up a Heavenly Net, as impenetrable as steel walls, not even mosquitoes, let alone sunlight or air, could penetrate.
However, their faces soon were slapped quickly.
When night fell, initially everything seed normal, the Hall of Holy Blood showed not even a hint of abnormality, and the guards’ alertness wasn’t triggered at all.
But just the mont people felt a bit disappointed.
Soone saw that on the roof of the Hall of Holy Blood appeared a black figure, and the person was holding the True Ancestor Blood Gem.
Hmm, it was as if a ghost had appeared.
The Vampire Guards didn’t notice anything, and the sleeping Elders remained undisturbed, yet Phantom Thief Jack had already stolen her target under everyone’s eyes.
It was all just that simple, simple to the point it seed inevitable.
Dorothy: “….”
Damn, she still couldn’t make any sense of it.
….. Hobody Witch dumbfounded….
