《Eternal Thief 》Chapter 144: Abrupt Turn of Events
Advertisement
Ace was now mulling over how he should make the Thunderstorm Hawk land on the group safely because if something goes wrong from this altitude, he would become meat mush and feast for wild beasts.
'I definitely can't use soul attack since it will die at the very moment.' Ace thought gravely.
This Thunderstorm Hawk speed was no doubt equal to his own, but it was only famous for its agility, not its fighting abilities, and its soul was even more fragile than its body.
That's why Ace has to think of a way to perfectly land this Hawk without killing it and the only way that came to his mind was to take Aden hostage just what he did with Jason.
Aden didn't have Jason skills nor his reflexes, he was accommodated to an easy lifestyle for too long and that's what makes him a much easy target to control than an assassin like Jason.
As for others on the Hawk, he can easily kill them with soul-piercing bullets if another tries to play a hero.
The only person who he was uncertain about was none other than the beauty beside him Skyler. But if he plays his cards perfectly, he can easily manipulate Skyler as well.
Now the question was how and when he would do it?
Whatever he does, he had to do it in two days before reaching the Regal Capital!
Ace was still frowning over his next plan when, abruptly, the Thunderstorm Hawk speed decreed drastically!
Everyone was startled and Aden's face became ashen as he senses something and Ace faltered. However, one person was very calm at this moment and that was Skyler!
Ace's eyes contracted instantly as he felt something completely out of expectation with his soul sense, 'Why is my luck always go down to drain whenever things were going according to my plan!'
He didn't know whether to laugh or cry at this moment, but he didn't panic and remained calm and waited to see these unexpected guests.
The very next moment thereafter, a dominant voice of a man resounded, "Beast Tamer, land this Thunderstorm Hawk this instant I command you, as the Beast Master of Moonless Kingdom's capital's branch of Beast Calling Organization!"
Just as the voice disappeared, a 25-meter large Condor came into everyone's view. It was completely pitch black with crimson beastly eyes and a crimson 3-feet horn on its head.

"Crimson Horn Condor!" Aden cried in alarm and the Thunderstorm Hawk's silver eyes were filled with terror as it looked at that ghastly condor.
"Yes, we'll do." Aden snapped out of his shock and quickly comply with the other party's order without even asking any question.
Ace narrowed his eyes because this Crimson Horn Condor was at the peak of the Qi foundation building realm and the Beast Master who controlled it was also a River Depth realm expert.
But the real problem was the silhouette beside that Beast Master because Ace could feel it was a Soul Cultivator!
As for the name; the Moonless Kingdom. It was far too well known for him to not know.
It was the second-ranked kingdom in the Kingdom Ranking Chart of middle-lands!
As the name implies, the Kingdom Ranking Chart record, the Kingdom's ranks from 1st to 100th, and the Regal Kingdom was at the 94th position!
One could only imagine the gap between these two Kingdoms beast calling branches. That's why Aden didn't dare to ask anything and just after hearing the name, he landed the Thunderstorm Hawk.
Ace didn't falter and remained composed as he observe closely before springing into any action. He could feel those two new arrivals were not here for him, or they might've tried capturing him in the air where he didn't have anywhere to run.
He couldn't help but look at Skyler and was astonished by seeing her calm self, 'What is she up to?' He thought.
After both aerial demonic beasts landed on the ground, everyone disembarks their rides.
Niko's face was stiff as well as his guards.
As for Aden, he put his best fawning smile as he said, "Sir, you honor me with your presence, I'm Beast Master of Zander county's branch, I wonder what business do you have with me, I'll do my best to help you."
In response to Aden's heartwarming greeting, that middle-aged man didn't even blink and completely ignore Aden.
This middle-aged man was 6 feet tall with a bulky built, his face was average with a long black beard as he wore a stiff face.
He was in beast calling uniform same as Aden but there were three silver stars on his collar, which means a Beast Master of a 1st Grade Kingdom!

Aden had only a single star silver star, which means he was from a third-grade kingdom branch.
At this moment, a slender figure landed on the ground gracefully.
It was a lady, that looked in her early twenties. She has a round pale face with extraordinary features. She wore a gray dress which shows her snake-like waist and two big twin peaks.
However, on her dress, there were two flaming ruins engraved with golden threads on her right breast.
"Estimate Rune Crafter, did you find whom you were looking for?" The Beast Master stiffly asked the figure that has just landed on the ground. But there was a hint of respect in his voice.
Everyone exclaims hearing Rune Crafter!
Ace was also somewhat stunned as he studied the lady. His attention directly goes to her big chest… ahem on those two flaming runes!
'She a 2nd Rank Mortal Rune Crafter of Pill Flame Organization!' He promptly assumed her background, seeing those two runes.
These flaming runes represent the rune crafter's ranks from 1 to 9 and only one organization had the right to use this symbol, Pill Flame Organization!
Ace has long felt the presence of a soul river cultivator, but he never expected to meet a rune crafter of the wealthiest organization below royal lands!
He was no longer ignorant and knew just how much rare rune crafters truly were, and how they were treated. And she was looking for something.
"Yes, I indeed found her." The Rune Crafter mildly spoke as a beautiful smile bloomed on her face when she looked at Skyler!
"Did my mother send your esteemed self?" Skyler spoke at this moment as if she was expected this.
Everyone was flabbergasted hearing her words, even Ace.
"Yes, she can't wait to see you and my name is Olivia Jake. I'm a very good friend of your mother, you can call me Aunt Olivia." Olivia introduces herself to Skyler with a faint smile.
"What is going on here and our mother is dead!" Niko finally snap out of his bewilderment as he spoke with a hint of fury in his voice.
"Hehe, you must be Niko, the first child of that rogue!" Olivia coldly chucked as she released a little of soul river cultivation aura.
Niko and everyone's face paled as they all felt their soul shake. She didn't even spare Aden who was only watching with great intrigue.
Only Skyler and Victor remain unaffected.
"Aunt Olivia, please don't hurt him. He is, after all, my half-brother," Skyler said passively.
"Hehe, find. Boy, you should thank your sister." Olivia darkly giggles as she stops releasing the soul aura.
'Her mother must've held quite an influential position or this overbearing witch won't listen to Skyler so quickly.' Ace instantly saw through Olivia's act of pleasing Skyler.
Niko's face was pale and twisted with fury as he looked at Olivia and Skyler.
"So, you were planning something, but even father didn't think you were in contact with that backstabbing bitch!" Niko hatefully looked at Skyler as he barked.
Skyler's eyes turn sharp, "If you disrespect my mother again, I'll forget you're my half-brother!" She threatened, and finally removed that veil from her face.
In everyone's eyes, a fairy-like face appeared.
A gorgeous oval face and a pair of exuberant sky-blue eyes. Her skin was as pristine white as jade. Skyler had completely transformed into a seductive beauty who appeared to be in her late teens.
Everyone takes a second glance at Skyler's face again except Ace, who was nonchalant. Skyler was like a fairy, but she was still a level or two below compared to his sealed wife.
But Skyler's transformation wasn't over after the veil was removed from her face, her aura sore!
Before she didn't have any trace of Qi on her, however now she instantly released the pressure of peak stage foundation building realm cultivator and it was not the aura of martial Qi, it was the Soul Qi!
Ace and Olivia were the only ones who weren't surprised by this sudden transformation.
Ace has long sensed soul cultivator aura on Skyler in the auction and that's why he was slightly wary of her from the start. That veil was a treasure that concealed her soul aura, but not from a Heavenly Soul Cultivator like him.
As for Olivia, she knew because Skyler's mother sent her to fetch Skyler for this very reason!
