《Eternal Thief 》Chapter 81: A Free Thief!
Advertisement
Ace stated softly, "Very Good! Now I'm leaving take care of yourself and your sisters." Ace chortles jokingly, "Don't get caught again or I save you all in vain."
Emmie's eyes begin to tear up hearing Ace was about to leave and threw herself in his arms, "B-big brother will...will we be able to meet again?" She asks while holding her tears, she didn't want Ace to see her cry. She wanted to be brave just like him.
Ace didn't dodge her hug since he considers her as a sister and stokes her head, "Who knows maybe we will or not. But be strong and brave, you have to protect your sisters! Don't let me down. All right?" He looks into Emmie's eyes and said earnestly with a smile.
Emmie nodded and promise honestly.
"Don't alert your sisters, they'll make a fuss. Take care of yourself. Farewell!" Ace deeply looked at Emmie one last time and place the mask on his face. He turns around while becoming the young man again.
Tears begin to drop from Emmie's face as she watches Ace walking in the dark corridor, "A-at least tell me w...where to look for you if I want?" She calls while sobbing.
Ace didn't turn around and only his chuckling voice sounded in the dark passage while he vanished, "Heh, heh, I'm just a free thief!"
Emmie mumble in a trance, "A Thief?!"
Ace didn't know; many years from now he'll see this group of brats again and at that time he would vomit blood!
----------
Ace exit the building as the young man.
He was wearing his own robes since the young man lavishing robes were drench in blood. He only takes his storage bag and inside was only his Identity Crystal Card and ruby coins nothing else. He at least found out the name of this young man was, Javier Weston.
'These Identity Crystal Card are quite handy.' Ace was quite amazed.
As for clothes Ace thought of making a random excuse but after coming out he discovered it was irreverent. Because those two peak qi gate realm guards seem to know why Javier was here and they even disdain him. They didn't care about his sudden change of clothes. They were only here to protect him because of his father's status.

'It seems this guy is loathed by many, he deserved it though.' Ace sneer, it was only making things easy for him.
Just like Javier, Ace enters the carriage casually with arrogance. Inside were quite capacious and two beautiful maids were waiting for him. He felt deep fear from their soul for Javier.
'Just how rotten were, You?' Ace becomes even more assured that killing the real Javier was the right thing to do.
After Ace or Javier enter the carriage it begins to head towards the prince manor.
Meanwhile, after the carriage vanished, the building that was famous for being a torture house was set aflame and no one knows who did this good deed. The city guards only found charred headless bodies in the burned ashed rubble.
No one knows the identities of these charred corpses and it became a mystery.
But some knowledgeable fellow knows, all these corpses belong to the nobles of big families because only those sick rich bastards came here to torchers young girls.
This building was also under the protection of a noble household before so no one dares to mess with them however now someone has killed everyone. Everyone thought that person really has mountain-like guts and has to be quite powerful to kill peak qi gate realm shop's keeper.
In the end, no one spoke, even that noble household who protect this building all these years. Since this shady business has already come to light, they didn't dare to investigate the matter or their prestige would go down to the gutter. Therefore, everyone decided to abandon those corpses and left the matter as it is.
After all, everyone wants to maintain their status.
Besides, no one notices a group of young girls sneak into the commoner district of the Luminous City that night!
---------
Inside the lavishing carriage, Ace was looking at the two frightened maids. One of them was even shivering a little. He sighed lightly and said, "Tell me what's my status in the prince manor?"
Since the real owner of this face was already dead he can only ask his servants. He only knows about Javier's name, birth, and his background from the identity crystal card nothing else.
Those two maids become even more afraid because this psycho has many weird fetishes and always likes to torment others included them. He didn't even have a sliver of compassion in him and treated everyone like toys that he can break anytime he wanted.

They thought it was his new fetish and one of them promptly answer, "Y-young Master, you're the son of the prince manor Head Butler, Braxton Weston."
'Head Butler, huh, seem like this cuckoo was not of a lower status.' Ace becomes pleased and said, "What did I call my father and mother, and how's our relationship?" He has to understand some basic information about Javier or they might suspect him.
One of the maids instantly replies, "You call your father 'Old Man' and mother 'Old Woman'. You're relation with both of them…" She looks at Ace with fearful eyes. She was afraid of not playing his 'game' correctly and getting beating afterward.
"Speak!" Ace raised his voice.
"Y-yes. You didn't get along with them well because of your elder brother." She quickly spills the beans and begins to shiver.
Ace raised his eyebrow after hearing this. This psychopath didn't even get along with his family, it was no wonder he has this kind of mindset and like tormenting others.
'Did I chose the wrong face?' Ace knit his brows after thinking; this idiot has just too many misgivings.
If he didn't play his part well someone might become specious of him and has to escape before he could find the treasury of the price manor. He has become Javier because he wanted to rob the prince manor, not to clean this scum mess.
Those two maids saw Ace or rather Javier frowning face and instantly got on their knee and begin to undress while shaking like dry leaves in the wind.
"What are you two doing?!" Ace was alarmed and snapped out his thoughts by this sudden development.
Those two maids were bewitched by this and one of them timidly spoke, "We are preparing to receive our punishment just like young master teach us."
Ace curse that sick bastard and quickly stop them, "You don't need to do this anymore, just act normally."
Those two maids become even more startled and thought, 'You're the one who not acting normal.' But since it was the order of young master how could they not obey? They thought he was playing some new kind of game again. Nonetheless, since he wasn't beating them it was good news for them.
Ace saw how much happy they become after listening about no punishment and lamented again. 'Just which hellhole did I throw myself into.'
Ace continued asking some basic things about Javier and those maids answer happily. They like this new game very much with no punishment.
After half an hour the carriage finally enters the tightly secure prince manor.
Ace scan the spacious surrounding and couldn't help but marvel. There were really two early-stage qi foundation realm experts in security.
The carriage slowly stopped outside a villa and those two guards open the door for Ace. He acts nonchalantly like Javier and exits the carriage with those two happy maids.
Those guards were shocked after seeing the happy faces of those two girls and strangely glance at Ace, 'Did he turn over new leaf?'
Ace pretends to not notice those two weird stairs and enters the villa. From those girls, he knew it was the villa of Weston Family and Javier's home.
Weston Family only has four people included Javier, other than this family only servants live in this big lavishing villa.
Ace just enter the villa when a jeering voice sounded, "Oh if it isn't my little cuckoo brother. How many did you torture today?"
Ace turn around saw a young man quite resembling Javier with a smirk on his face, 'He should be this scoundrel brother Keith Weston.' He swiftly identifies this young man.
This Keith was quite talented and the apple of his father's eye, while Javier was sourness of his eye. Ace heard from those maids that Javier always wanted to stomp on his brother's face and after seeing his jeering smile he know why. This guy was too damn arrogant!
Ace coolly replies, "What it has anything to do with you?"
Keith didn't even blink at Ace's response because Javier never respects him. "Just don't get caught or father might disown you." He snorted and knew Javier's fetishes very well so he leaves after mocking him like always.
'One idiot down.' Ace has a sigh of relief. He was afraid; this family might suspect him so he was ready for anything.
