Eternal Thief

Chapter 527 Life Grand Demon Region

Ace swiftly moved right where Agared was standing.

He took out a knife and ʼcutʼ his right hand. In other views, only the back of his hand was visible.

The next moment, some drops of blood fell into the already cleared pool, and thereupon, the water again started to turn black.

The Captainʼs impassive voice rang again, ”Leave.”

Roy bowed before he left the building with Agared and the burly soldier.

”You two may report to the task department now.” The burly guard coldly said as he turned around.

Agared suddenly said, ”Hey, there are some red stains behind your neck.”

”Where?” He was startled as he used his hand to rub the back of his neck, and when he saw the red stains on his hand, he frowned deeply, ʼBlood? But thereʼs no wound, and then there were sudden images of the past? What is happening to me today?ʼ

ʼHe suspected nothing.ʼ Aceʼs lips curled as he walked away with Agared.

It was indeed Aceʼs handy word. He used the soul words to stun the soldier for two seconds, and then he made a slight cut on his neck and stored a few drops of blood in an empty storage ring.

The soldier was a golden river core cultivator, so this kind of cut could heal within a few seconds.

So, when he regained his senses, the cut was already healed, and only some stains were left.

Even the Captain didnʼt notice a thing, and he was probably paying attention to that pool.

When it was Aceʼs turn he simply used his storage ring to make it appear that he had cut his hand the blood was his.

Now, he was clear to roam in the Royal Demon Nation!

”Alright, brother Agared you should go, and report to the task department. Here is the scanning formation.” Roy suddenly spoke.

”Where are you going?” Agared didnʼt mind as he took Royʼs scanning formation the task department lent them for this task.

He didnʼt mind covering up for Roy since it wasnʼt much, to begin with, and he have quite a good impression of him after their drinking season on the cliff.

Roy replied with a smile, ”Iʼm going to the logistics department to ask for a leave. Itʼs been over a decade since I returned home, and I think itʼs time to settle the last few matters and be free of everything.”

Agared thoughtfully looked at Roy and nodded, ”It seemed you had some kind of enlightenment on this trip.”

”You can say that I just awaken by that setting sun.” Roy mysteriously smiled.

”Hahaha, go, I wish you good luck.” Agared nodded and left.

Royʼs smile suddenly vanished as an impassive look appeared on his face.

ʼI have to be extremely careful about changing my appearance. If it was before I couldʼve just deserted this place and others would think little of a desertion soldier. But now that the demons are on high alert they will investigate everything and anything.ʼ Ace mused gravely as he headed toward another building.

Half a day later, Roy could be seen walking on a stony road as he headed in the east direction.

Getting a leave of absence wasnʼt difficult for Roy since he was a devoted soldier, and his service had already reached over a decade. He was allowed to take six months off.

However, Ace extended this leave to three years as he showed some ʼgoodwillʼ to the officer in charge.

Now, no one will look for a second-class soldier like Roy for three years, and this time was enough for Ace to do his thing.

He was now headed toward one of the Grand Demon Regions, the Life Grand Demon Region!

This region was under the management of the Life Demon Tribe.

Furthermore, the Life Demon Tribe was also the richest tribe of the entire demon continent because the Life Demon Association was founded by them and they reap massive resources every year!

Roy was a member of the Life Demon Tribeʼs branch clan, Earthen Soul Clan.

When Ace annexed his memories he almost laughs out loud when got the knowledge about Royʼs memory.

If someone hates him the most on the entire continent, it would be either Leona or the Life Demon Association.

Life Demon Association in particular because he broke the legend of their impenetrable Life Demon Treasure Pagoda and then slap their faces one more time when he theft the Life Demon Auction!

The Life Grand Demon Duke probably wanted to eat him alive right now.

The Life Demon Tribe was extremely overbearing in Royal Demon Country. They didnʼt give anyone face except the Imperials. But now their reputation was in ruin because their reputation suffered a huge blow.

Their members were keeping a low profile right now while madly pouring resourcing into a continent-wide thief hunt.

But who wouldʼve thought the thief was heading toward their home ground right at this moment?

However, Ace wasnʼt going there to give the Life Demon Grand Duke a heart attack this time. He was going to complete his job mission as well as initiate his final chain mission.

For completing the Job Mission, heʼs required to steal a memory that would be useful for him. Like a memory that is important for his chain mission. He didnʼt think any other memory really matter to him unless it was related to the elemental orb.

But the system might not count the memories related to the Lightning Elemental Orb since he already had its exact location recorded in the fate map.

So, either it has to be a new elemental orb or something useful for him.

Speaking of which, when Ace activated the fate map before leaving the cliff, he found that the newly golden indicator was pointing in the endless sea direction!

Ace was stunned at that time before he closed the map with a wry smile. It was too soon for him to voyage in the endless sea.

With time running out, he moved at his full speed.

The Royal Army Region was filled with check posts. Without Royʼs identity, he mightʼve wasted a massive amount of time traveling.

On the sixth day, Ace finally passed the last checkpoint and exited the army territory.

The Life Grand Demon Region was closest to the Royal Army Region, and with Aceʼs speed, it took him five more days to reach the boundary of the region.

The Life Grand Demon Region wasnʼt as crude as the Royal Army Region, it was surrounded by a magnificent wall and many turrets.

This place was the hub for life profession cultivators and the headquarters of the Life Demon Association was also in this place.

Although the monopoly of the life profession cultivators wasnʼt as high as the eight provinces, the Association still attracts many talented cultivators that were interested in joining the association.

Especially, those youths who failed to enter one of the four demon institutes every year.

Ace passed another security check that was at the same level as the Royal Army Region entrance gate.

However, they didnʼt take any blood tests after seeing Royʼs identity token as a member of the region as well as the army.

Ace was content with this and finally entered the Life Grand Demon Region.

The first thing he noticed was the dense Qi filled with a fragrance air, and then he saw many cultivators walking wearing association robes and beautiful buildings and clear streets.

The Royal Army Region would be called bleak in front of this place.

Although Roy was a member of Life Grand Demon Region, he hadnʼt been back in a decade, so many things were different from his memories.

However, the distribution of this place canʼt be changed. There were 90 life districts of the Life Grand Demon Region, and each district was under the management of a branch clan of the Life Demon Tribe.

The central district was the largest area, and also the palace where the main clan was as well as the headquarters of the Life Demon Association.

Aceʼs destination was this exact place!

As Ace walked on the busy street, he was observing everyone closely and his surroundings.

He only had twenty days before his job mission will fail, so he was in a hurry to reach this place.

But if he wanted to succeed, Royʼs disguise would no longer cut it, and he required someone with very high status who could give entry to the central district.

Furthermore, he was still ten days away from the central district.

Ace suddenly spotted a golden carriage with a black runic insignia moving in the center of the vast road and there were four more carriages following closely behind this carriage.

Every passerby quickly stopped and bow toward the golden carriage with black runic insignia.

Ace also quickly identified this insignia from both Paul and Royʼs memories, and his eyes lit up, ʼSomeone from the Life Demon Tribeʼs main branch!ʼ

He knew this was the exact target he was looking for, and without getting noticed by another, he entered Heartless Stealth and started following the entourage from a safe distance!
