Eternal Thief

Freya’s eyes shimmered with a peculiar glint when she heard this and looked at Ronan, who had this appalling expression.

“So, you had other helpers!” Ronan exclaimed in trepidation as if he had stumbled upon a huge secret.

Because everyone still thought that the elusive Sky Stealer worked alone and he didn’t have any backing or helper. But it didn’t seem to be the case at all.

Freya ignored Ronan as if he was air and questioned Ace instead, “Leader, can you really enter his Knowledge Sea?”

She was well aware of the fable knowledge sea, and even she couldn’t enter it with her current skill set. But Ace sounded like it was a piece of cake for him as long as that restriction was removed.

Ace’s abilities were still well hidden from all of the house members, and only Noa knew that Ace was both Soul and Martial Cultivator, and he had a unique soul search that was as sneaky as him, but that was the extent of her knowledge about Ace’s abilities.

“Who do you think I am?” Ace’s snorted, “Just do as I ask, and I’ll give you Psyche Invasion, which would explain what I was talking about.”

Ace was already planning to give the Psyche Invasion to Freya and Noa. They were both soul cultivators, and that secret art will do wonders in the hands of Freya. But it was just too long, so writing it down was a hassle, and he didn’t have time.

Nevertheless, he didn’t mind revealing it to her now that Freya questioned.

Freya’s eyes lit up, and her coquettish voice rang, “You’re so bad, keeping all the good stuff to yourself.”

“Stop playing around and do your thing. We’re still not out of the woods yet!” Ace’s perplexed voice rang.

“Die!” Out of the blue, black lighting suddenly flashed in Ronan’s bloodshot eyes, and the next moment, a dark lightning streak shot toward Freya’s hooded head.

Since Freya was ignoring and underestimating him, he decided to muster every bit of soul Qi and launched this barely acceptable soul attack despite that suppression.

He wanted to maim this thievish bastard in front of him.

However, the moment lightning appeared in the thief’s space, and it instantly vanished before it could even reach halfway toward Freya.

His soul Qi wasn’t strong enough to break past Thief’s Space’s restriction and Cyrus’s suppression.

“Lightening?” Ace’s astonishing voice rang at this moment, “So, the secret element of your imperial family is Soul Lightening?”

Freya also chuckled with a hint of killing intent, “It seemed he’s still not given up.”

“You lowly thief, even if you took my appearance, you could never replicate our clan’s Black Soul Lighting Element, which is supreme in this world!” Ronan yelled arrogantly while coldly staring at Freya.

He still didn’t believe they could penetrate his mind, and he knew they wouldn’t dare to kill him since it would only alert the imperial domain. However, if he didn’t cherish his life and wanted to live, he might consider committing suicide.

But he knew these thieves would soon find out just how delusional they were to try impersonating an Imperial Family Member, and someone would save him soon. He wanted to see them caught and then torture them to release his grievance!

“Supreme in this world?” Freya suddenly laughs coldly, “You have no idea what you’re dealing with, little prince. Let’s if you still remain supreme after being enslaved by my evil seed.”

The next moment, she suddenly removed the hood on her head, revealing her charming face, which stunned Ronan entirely because he had never seen someone so beautiful in his life!

Freya’s crimson lips curled up when she saw daze Ronan, “Tell me, little prince, am I pretty?”

Suddenly a strange dark mist surfaced in Freya’s eyes, dying her eyes black.

At this moment, Ronan, who was staring at Freya, also experienced something unexpected, the same dark mist suddenly surfaced in his eyes, just like Freya, and they also turned completely black!

‘Evil Seed!’ A dark gleam flashed past Freya’s eyes as a strange dark blue symbol suddenly surfaced within her eyes.

Ronan’s eyes also shone with that symbol before it disappeared within them, and his eyes returned to normal as if nothing had happened.

Freya’s eyes also returned to normal, and she smiled charmingly before wearing her hood again.

A notification rang in her head at this moment which stunned her for a moment,

______

[Evil Seed creation had succeeded!]

—

2. Evil Seed

[Description: Enslavement Ability of Evil Thief, which could turn anyone into an Evil Seed!]

[Limitation(s): Not work on anyone with Stronger Soul than Evil Thief. The Evil Seed could be broken if the victim’s soul became stronger than the Evil thief! In both cases, the Evil Thief will suffer soul backlash!]

[Current Evil Seeds No: 1/5]

______

‘So, I could also be informed if the ability has succeeded or not?’ She marveled since it was her first time using Evil Seed on someone.

“Is it done?” Ace’s voice rang in anticipation. He knew about all of Freya and others’ abilities since he could see their statuses.

That was why he let Freya handle it in the first place because he knew as long as Freya’s Evil Seed succeeded, Ronan’s resistance would vanish. This evil seed was like a Soul Brand, but it was far more potent because of Freya’s fourth ability!

Freya giggled at Ace’s question mischievously but didn’t reply. Instead, she looked at Ronan, who was still staring into the void, and commanded, “Bark like a dog!”

If Ronan were himself, he would’ve already started cussing Freya for her insolence but now…

“Woof… Woof…” He instantly started barking like an idiot. Even a soul brand won’t be able to make someone go against their ego because it won’t only make other loyal, not conscious puppets!

“Alright, that’s enough. Now have him break that restriction or whatever it was stopping my invasion.” Ace’s exasperated voice rang. He didn’t know why all of them had the time to fool around while he was the only one who knew the severity of the situation.

“Knock…. Knock…”

At this moment, the sounds of knocking rang on the closed door of the private dining room, and Ace knew he was out of time.

Archie and Ronan were already alone for about ten minutes now, and Jefferson naturally would suspect something.

Ace looked at Winter, who also became high alert when she heard the knocking.

“I’m going to let them in and just answer according to my instruction through House Call….” Ace quickly instructed Winter about some essential habits of Archie, which were enough to fool anyone in the Royal Demon Institute.

He then quickly wore that triangular pendant and arm guards, and then he closed the array that Ronan had activated. Its control was right on the table position where Ronan was sitting.

He then called in Ronan’s impassive voice, “Enter.”

The door opened, and Jefferson again entered the room with a cold expression because he thought Ronan had done something to Archie.

However, Jefferson was startled when he saw all those empty dishes and empty wine bottles, which Winter finished without carrying about anything.

Ronan spoke again, at this moment, “Please excuse my manor, Sir. Jefferson, I had an interesting talk with Sir. Archie here, so I forget about the time. But, nevertheless, you two may leave. I’ll handle everything.”

Ace tried to sound as ambiguous as possible because Jefferson was clearly not what he seemed, and Ronan was even apprehensive of him. So, he just wanted this guy out of here and then took his time extracting memories from Ronan.

Jefferson looked deeply at the masked price and felt this strange feeling, but he couldn’t interrogate Ronan even if he wanted to and didn’t want to reveal who he was in front of Archie yet.

So, he had no choice but to keep his question for Archie and behave like a good henchman.

He bowed slightly in agreement and respectfully said, “As my prince command. Let’s go, Sir. Archie.”

Archie stood up before he bowed to Ronna, “Thank you for accepting me under your wing, Your Highness. I’m grateful.”

Ronan merely nodded in acknowledgment before Archie and Jefferson left.

Ace had an internal sigh of relief when he saw Jefferson leave without suspecting anything, and now all left was Winter to perform well. He had already handed Archie’s student badge to her so she won’t face any problem.

Even if she did, she could easily ask him through the house call.

At this moment, the door opened again and the two demons standing outside entered as their faces lit with vexation.

“Your Highness…” But before they could say anything, Ronan coldly uttered, “Who allowed you two to enter and talk? Scram for this prince!”

They were both startled because they were both Ronan’s left and right-hand men in Royal Demon Institute, and he never reprimanded them like this.

But still, they just thought Ronan was also in a bad mood because of Jefferson’s audacity and didn’t want to be disturbed. So they quickly bowed and asked for his forgiveness and quickly stood outside again.

Ace finally had the chance to pay attention to Ronan again!
