Chapter 472 Returning to Blade Domain
Eternal Thief
Right when the system extracted and destroyed the remnant soul from Winterâs knowledge see.
A ghastly voice rang which shake heaven and earth, âNOOOOO⦠Who⦠who destroy my sisterâs soul?!â
The very next moment, a projection appeared within the dark space, but it only showed two blurs and a dark mist shrilling nothing else.
That voice rang again in alarm and fear. âI canât see the face of two killers?! Just who did she offend in that shithole?!
âBut whoever destroyed her soul now has the Soul Resurrection Bead. I left behind in the hope of her resurrection. Even if this means war, I must take revenge!
âHmph, so what, I canât deduce your location or see your face? Iâll spread the news about the Soul Resurrection Bead. Letâs see if those old ghosts will remain calm. I donât believe you two can hide from their divination as well!â

On the demon continent,
Ace had no idea he had escaped a catastrophe.
It has been five weeks since he and Winter fled from the ruin, and now he was on the periphery of the Blade Domain.
Furthermore, it would appear no one had any idea about the collective attack of the demons on that corpse demon tribe ruin since everything was normal.
There wasnât any news about the result as well. Someone might suppress it or they might still struggle against those corpses Winter released, especially that corpse king.
Anyhow, this situation was in Aceâs favor since all the bigwigs of demons and their close aides were still absent and if he played well, he can easily complete his mission and then fled the blade domain.
Those soul manifestation realm demons wouldnât have seen it coming!
Ace enter the outer blade domain without any hitch and directly headed toward the inner domain. His destination was the lionheart shop, where Freya was waiting for him.
They had already made contact a few days ago. She was inquiring about if Ace had successfully escaped or not, and she sounded glad when she heard, he did.
After successfully evading the checkpoints, Ace was in the inner blade domain, but not as Feng anymore, which made him somewhat nostalgic.
Fengâs identity was the first identity he used the longest and then discarded it properly.
He only smiled wryly and continue to move until he reached the lionheart shop and entered without alerting anyone.
Ace directly appeared on the top floor where he sensed Freyaâs presence and she was the only one in the room.
He knocked on the door, and her charming voice rang. âItâs open.â
Aceâs eyes widened slightly but then he smiled and shook his head as he entered the room and saw Freya was in her icy demeanor sitting there while looking at him with a hint of irritation.
Freya shows a storage ring in her hand and said with narrow eyes, âItâs empty?â
However, Ace also held a ring between his finger and grinned, âThis one is not.â
Freyaâs eyes widen slightly and looked at her hand, and just as she thought her storage ring was gone.
âYOU!â
âWhat? Only you are allowed to steal my storage ring, but Iâm not?â Ace smirked and tosses the ring back.
âYou wonât receive any HP while stealing from me, nor can I. But you seemed to become more proficient in Thiefâs Charity. However, to be clear, I let you steal my empty storage ring.â Ace grinned as he sat in front of her.
Freya was unhappy, but she knew the skills given to her were made by this man, so how could he not be more proficient than her in them?
Ace smiled and asked, âHow have you been?â
Freya coolly replied, âIf weâre talking about the change in the plan you pull in the last minute and put the entire operation at risk, then Iâm not fine. Do you have any idea they captured almost all of my messenger pawns?â
Ace sighed, âIt was necessary, or trust me, I wouldâve been here right now.â
âI know. Those demon kings are still there and fighting something. Those mortal birds canât go within a five-mile radius of that area because of some barrier. But I have seen the heaven-shattering view from afar, and whatever theyâre fighting, itâs not something we can imagine.â Freya looked at Ace for further explanation.
Aceâs eyes narrowed slightly, âSo, theyâre still fighting? It seemed it was the right decision to flee from there.â
âYou were extremely lucky to have me or⦠heh.â Freya mocked.
âIâm thankful for that as well. But I can still escape if push came to shove.â Ace shrugged with a smirk.
âFine, donât admit.â Freya scoffed, âBut tell me who you con in joining the house this time?â
Aceâs expression changed ever so slightly, as he replied, âWhat do you mean, con? I have just shown a wanderer a correct path, nothing else.â
Freyaâs eyes were filled with disdain. âDonât try to fool me. I know no one would be willing to join this thief path of yours unless they are as thievish as you. So, who it is? Is it stronger than me?â
Ace could sense the hostility in her voice, but he knew she was worried about the newcomer will surpass her.
He smiled, âGive me your hand for a moment.â he held his hand toward her.
Freya coldly looked at him. âWant to take advantage of me, huh?â But she still took his hand.
Feeling the soft hand, Ace was unmoved and pursed his lips. âWhy are you women always slandering me? Donât resist.â
Freya suddenly felt a powerful suction force, but she didnât resist, and the next moment her vision blurred and she was standing in a dark space that was filled with storage rings!
Aceâs expression changed when he saw Freya didnât appear in the thiefâs house space but his living thiefâs space!
He quickly sent her out before she could move toward where Eva was, and Freya appeared outside again with a bewildered expression on her face!
