Eternal Thief

Chapter 1104 Eccentric Weapon Spirit!

Alina was startled when she heard the arrogant voice. Her eyes narrowed dangerously, and she asked through telepathy, ”Were you referring to me?”

”Who else? I didnʼt expect a Celestial Titan to not even know about the bonding ritual, and you havenʼt even started to cultivate yet. It seems the Celestial Titan has fallen while I was sleeping. How disappointing.” The Calamity Star Swordʼs treasure spirit, Star, expressed disappointment.

”It seemed you werenʼt taught any manners!” Alina coldly stated as she clearly didnʼt like Starʼs tone.

”Hehehe, what are you going to do about it, huh? Bite me? I bet you canʼt even summon me now, not to mention you are simply too weak to wield me. Remember, girl, only the strong are respected, while the weak are trampled on by the strong. Talk to me when you have the power to summon me; Iʼm going to sleep. Tsk, what a letdown.” Star stated disdainfully, and her tone was filled with disappointment.

”Whatʼs wrong?” Aceʼs voice rang again at this moment before Alina could retort because he saw Alinaʼs deep frown.

Alina didnʼt know what to say since Star wasnʼt entirely wrong; she had just completed the bloodline sweep and wasnʼt familiar with her prowess, and Eva was also listening, so she wouldnʼt admit that she just got trash talk by her own weapon.

”Everything is fine. My weapon just told me how grateful it is to have me as her owner.” She lied as if it was the most natural thing to do while she swore to properly educate this arrogant weapon spirit once she sorted out everything.

She then changed the topic, ”Anyway, when can I meet you? I have to properly thank you for giving me all these opportunities. I donʼt think itʼs a big deal. You said there are only five law-state cultivators in this city, right? Why donʼt you let us go through this tribulation? Once we stabilize our powers, Iʼm sure we can easily overpower them or at least make them hesitate to attack us.” She stated confidently while glancing at Eva with a provocation look.

Evaʼs eyes also widened slightly as she said, ”I hate to admit it, but she has a point. Iʼm sure they wonʼt be foolish enough to barge into our heavenly tribulation if they know their terror. We can even use heavenly tribulation to create an opening in their defensive system.”

However, Ace quickly rejected their idea, ”No, I know better than anyone just how powerful a heavenly punishment could be. Although you two will be going through a weaker version, I wonʼt let you take this risk until Iʼm sure I can protect you if someone untoward happens.

”Furthermore, it isnʼt like we didnʼt have any other option. In fact, just wait a few more days, and more spots in the Thief House will open. Then you two can join as well if you want.

”In the meanwhile, I want you two to think carefully about whether you really want to join the thiefʼs house or remain independent. It might have many benefits, but it also puts great restrictions on its members.

”I know you guys wonʼt listen to me, but I just want you to think it one last time. Alina should also be able to familiarize herself with her bloodline by that time. Moreover, these spirit stones seemed pretty important, so we canʼt miss them out since we are literally sitting on them!” Ace declared in an irrefutable tone.

”There is no need to think it over; as your ʼFirst Wife,ʼ Iʼll be joining you no matter what. Oh, and you canʼt back away from your promise of making the Vice Leader!” Eva declared. She especially emphasized the words ʼFirst Wifeʼ and ʼVice Leaderʼ despite the latter being a blunt lie, which made Ace smile wryly since he knew she was doing it to provoke Alina.

And she succeeded when Alinaʼs expression went dark after she heard this. Glaring at Eva, she said, ”Iʼm also joining no matter what. As for the positions of First Wife and Vice Leader, only someone competent will keep them!”

Both goddesses-like women glared at each other, and there were sparks in the air.

”Ahem, letʼs talk about it when the time comes. For now, we need to be civil. Oh, and Alina, I also want to ask you if you know about the cultivation realms of law state and what kind of bloodline you have?” Ace changed the topic before these two destroyed his precious thiefʼs space. He also wanted to know more about Alinaʼs bloodline, especially about that jade scroll.

Alina reluctantly broke eye contact with Eva and replied, ”I donʼt have inherited memories like this she-devil over there. But Star… I mean the Calamity Star Sword, just called me by the bearer of Celestial Titan Bloodline. As for the realms of law state, I think there might be some information in the jade scroll you just gave me.

”Because the moment it entered my head, I can feel something foreign inside my head and as long as I focus on it, I should be able to tell you whatʼs inside.”

She truthfully replied before she again glanced at Eva, who was also interested in this information and coolly said, ”Thatʼs why if you can ask a certain someone to leave my house for some time so that I can focus on it. Itʼll be helpful.”

”Hmph, who wants to be in the same space as you?” Eva retorted before Ace could say another and vanished from the room. She was clearly displeased.

Ace couldnʼt help but smile wryly as she knew he had to cox the devil later now. He said to Alina, who had a victorious smile on her charming face, ”Take your time, and if you need anything, just call my name, and Iʼll be here for you.”

”I will.” Alina nodded gently as the fighting intent her eyes were nowhere to be seen.

”Wow, what a melodrama. I never expected a Celestial Titan to stoop to so low as to marry a Bigamist!” Starʼs jeering voice rang in Alinaʼs head again, making the latter grimace.

”Shut up! No one asked for your opinion!” She coldly berated.

”Hehehe, I wasnʼt giving my opinion to begin with; I was just stating what Iʼve seen,” Star replied, clearly enjoying Alinaʼs reaction.

ʼAs if that she-devil wasnʼt enough!ʼ Alina didnʼt know what to say anymore and simply decided to ignore this eccentric, disrespectful weapon spirit. She would get back at it once she had enough power!

After interacting with Eva and Alina, Ace was clearly in a good mood, especially since Alina had woken up.

Ace then thought for a moment before he decided to test something. The next moment, Cyrus suddenly appeared on top of his shoulder!
