《Eternal Thief 》Chapter 139: Thievery Outside the Colosseum (2)
Advertisement
Ace marvel at just how astonished this thief symbol was.
He studied the blackbird tattoo that appeared on the ring fingers of those people.
This tattoo was of a bird with its wings wide opened and there were two horns-like cavities on its head. Ace has seen an owl before and this tattoo just looked like it but the difference was its wings were like sharp daggers.
He could only see this much detail since it was almost like a black stamp.
'Those guys will hate me for this.' Ace smile wryly and couldn't help but imagine these people's reactions when they'll find this symbol.
Ace quickly shift his focus elsewhere because the thief symbol was just a surprise he didn't expect to see like this and his actual reason for observing them was to see if his self-created skill thief's charity work or not.
'Hehe, it worked perfectly, now I don't have to worry about anything.' Ace was elated after confirming the skill worked just fine.
"What are you grinning about?" Skyler's mild voice entered Victor's ears who was smirking for no reason.
"Oh, I'm just excited about leaving this city for the first time and going to the capital." Victor answer while looking at Skyler, who was wearing magenta color dressed which revealed her mature figure pretty well.
But the white veil on her face was still there, only her beautiful sky-blue eyes were reviled.
Ace knew from Victor's memories that she always wore this veil for as long as he could remember, and Ace had some idea why.
"We're not going for side seen. Don't be naughty or you know me." Skyler warned her younger brother like always.
"Heh, don't worry. Father has sent me to watch over you two, he won't be causing trouble." Niko chimed in.

Victor only smile as for Skyler, she nodded silently. She wasn't close with her elder brother nor was Victor because Niko was always busy with Patrick's tasks and he spent very little time with his siblings.
After the carriages entered the colosseum, the reaming group of people with beast tickets moved again.
One by one, people keep entering after showing their beast tickets. Half an hour pass until everyone with a beast ticket was inside.
"4,930 spots are filled. That means there is not a single beast ticket missing." Nora announced as she watched a formation plate in her hand.
This formation plate can detect beast tickets that were engraved with a special rune. As long as someone with a beast ticket passed the gate, the count will show on this white formation plate.
It can even detect them in someone's storage rings. That's why no one dares to forge false tickets, because fooling the organization was almost night impossible.
Nora and her fellow disciple Jade returned after their task of bringing everyone inside was over.
After those two girls left, the enormous gates of the colosseum were also close and only those people who were here to see their relatives off remained.
Before anyone could leave, a shrill scream resounded in the packed area outside the colosseum.
"W-where is my storage ring!!!" It was a woman's voice, and it came from a luxurious carriage park on the busy square.
Everyone curiously looked at the carriage and exclaim because it was the carriage of Viscountess Macey who was here to send off her eldest son!
"MY RING!"
Another scream of a man rang at this moment and the crowd shifted their focus there in bewilderment.
It was another carriage of some Viscount who was here for the same reason as everyone.

"T-this… mine is gone as well…"
Just like this, 97 different voices filled with murderous intent rang in the area one by one.
One thing was common in those exclaiming voices, all of their storage rings were missing!
Every one of these people was of utmost importance and held a prominent position in Zander county. Eight of them were people with a tilted in their names!
That's why their guards instantly lock down the entire area!
One by one, those victims exited their lavishing carriages with killing intent and dark faces.
"A strange bird tattoo appeared on my ring finger." A baron showed the thief symbol to everyone with a grim face.
"It's not only you." Viscountess Macey also showed her middle finger to everyone where she wore the storage ring once.
Just like that, six more fellows appeared with that strange bird tattoo. All of them had titled names with 3 viscounts and 5 Barons!
As for everyone else, they didn't have that tattoo.
The crowd on the other side was closely watching this peculiar scene. It was the first time they see so many people with influential positions in a public place and all of them got robbed somehow and at the same time in the same way!
"But how is this possible to steal our rings inside carriages and even tattooed this bird on our flesh and we didn't even notice it. People will laugh at us." A viscount spoke in a hushed voice with an ugly face.
However, in this silent and large crowd of cultivators, his voice sounded clear.
"So how the hell you all can explain this!" A short-tempered baron roared out loud. He was not in the mood to talk politely after being robbed and given this strange tattoo as a gift!
"Did anyone have a storage ring on them?" A clear-headed fellow asked the crowd to confirm his conjecture. He also got robbed but was very calm.
Everyone shook their heads as they began to show their hands to clarify any misunderstanding.
"Figures." That man mumbles as he shifted his focus to the mad group of victims who were eyeing him for an explanation.
"It seems only people with storage rings got robbed and the person who did this is a thief called Sky Stealer!" The man helplessly sighed as he told everyone.
"Sir James, how did you know this name, and why are you so confident? Care to explain." Macey asked coldly as her aura skyrocketed.
She, as well as everyone else, was suspecting James now!
