Eternal Thief Chapter 741

Published at 4th of July 2023 07:56:40 AM



Ace was speechless, seeing the unfamiliar woman on her knees in front of Eva. 

Although that woman's expression was extremely nasty and her appearance disheveled, she was quite a piece of art with a slim figure and fair color. Her hatred-filled eyes were of a snake while her long salt and pepper hair was cut short. Furthermore, black glistering scales were visible under her chin. 

It was the human form of the Grim Winged Serpent!

"So, my dear husband collected another woman yet again? You have no idea how proud I am!" Eva's melodious yet cold voice rang in Ace's head at this moment which made the latter sweat profusely. 

He quickly tried to explain, "Dear, it's all a misunderstanding, a big misunderstanding! I had no idea this snake was a woman. I can swear to upon your name!"

Ace didn't know whether to cry or laugh at this moment as he was telling the truth this time around. He was taking the Grim Winged Serpent as a male because its voice was simply too eerie, and no one could tell if it was male or female. 

Furthermore, he didn't have time to check the other party's gender as he had a far more pressing matter to take care of. 

Eve's eyes narrowed ever so slightly, but the coldness in her eyes lessened quite a lot, "Alright, since you sound honest, I'll believe you this once. But why did you capture this beast? You even took the risk to bring Cyrus out when you clearly told me the last time what kind of place this Union was?" 

Before entering into seclusion, Eva naturally had a nice chat with Ace about his situation, and he didn't hide anything from her either. At that time, Ace was still in the mortal domain, so she only knew that Ace was preparing to head into the core of the union, not what happened afterward. 

"I'll explain everything to you, but right now, we need to extract information from this snake. How about this you can keep playing to be me and do as I say?" Ace asked while thinking about how Livia, who now stood behind Eva like an obedient maid, would know about Eva's identity if he spoke.

So, letting her play the Sky Stealer was the only option, and he knew if he revealed his identity to Livia without consulting her first, he wouldn't hear the end of it. 

Furthermore, now that Ace thinks about it letting Eva play the Sky Stealer was quite a huge advantage in front of strangers because this would add another layer of protection to his identity.

Not only will this make Eva happy and keep her off his back, but this will also save the huge hassle of dealing with every person he abducts, and his identity will remain mysterious. He was killing three birds with one stone! 

"Hmph, I was planning to do the same. As long as I'm in this place, I'm the owner, and you can't speak unless you want to make me unhappy!" Eva stated matter-of-factly. 

'Why don't you just take them in your own space ring if you don't want me to come in contact with them?' Ace wanted to inquire about this with indignation, but he didn't want to make his life more difficult, so keep them to himself. 

"Ha, ha, of course, of course, now can you please make her remove those gloves? I want to confirm something?" Ace stiffly asked. 

Eva was quite pleased as she finally turned her focus on the woman in front of her who was staring at her like a venomous snake, "If you keep looking at me like this, I might gouge your eyes out." 

The Grim Winged Serpent spat venomously, "Do your worse, little bitch!" 

The Grim Winged Serpent now fully accepted the fact that she couldn't escape this place no matter what method she tried. She can't even use her to take out her treasures, and her magic beast form is also completely suppressed here. 

She never expected that this kind of place would exist that could fully suppress her and render every trick she knew useless. 

The appalling part was this terrifying crowned woman sitting in front of her who was too terrifying as just her presence made her want to escape as far away from her as possible. 

Then there was the small chick who sat over her shoulder and looked all innocent and quiet, but the Grim Winged Serpent knew that little thing was as terrifying as that woman but seemed to be under this woman's control.

As for that elf standing behind her like a respectful servant and looking at her like she was looking at a corpse, the Grim Winged Serpent never spared a glance at her. 

All in the mind of the Grim Winged Serpent was right now, how in the world she appeared in this terrifying place when she was in the Secret Realm. 

She even thought it was some sort of trap in the secret realm, which was triggered after the spirit fire was taken away by her, and this crowned woman seemed to be the true owner of this secret realm. 

If not for Eva's eyes, the Grim Winged Serpent even assumed that she was the leader of those terrifying two humans riding on swords. 

Now her fate was sealed, but it meant she was going to succumb to it as she still had a final trump card which was a last resort that she didn't want to use unless her life was on the line. 

But now, there was no other way, and that's why she was making Eva angry so she would act against her personally. 

However, Eva has spent almost two decades in slavery. She was not someone who would just be triggered by some random insults or overlook the obvious provocation. The only she truly felt was losing control when it came to Ace, or even if the world burned in front of her eyes, she would remain as cold as ice. 

"Livy, go and remove those gloves of hers." She coolly commanded. 

"Yes, mistress." Livia respectfully accepted the command and moved to complete the order. 

Livia has spent a full week of torment under Eva, and she knows just how terrifying she is, and she finally understands just what of existence the Sky Stealer was. Not to mention she was very willing to follow her because of the future prospect, and Eva promised her a position among her fellow thieves if she served her well. 

Most time, she just has to take care of Cyrus and play with him and even educate him. But this task was even more tiresome because Cyrus was like a spoiled child who, most of the time, wanted to play and didn't listen to her at all. 

She was afraid if not for Eva forbidding him from bullying her too much, he would've already burned her to ashes just for fun. 

Nevertheless, Livia remained persistent and took care of the little spoiled bird in the hope of pleasing the Sky Stealer so she could also learn how to be a thief like 'her!'

When the Grim Winged Serpent saw Livia coming toward her, she wanted to attack but failed because Cyrus seemed to notice it instantly pin her down on the ground. 

The Grim Winged Serpent was now truly terrifying of Cyrus because of how easily he could suppress her, and his aura gave her a living nightmare for some reason. 

Livia scoffed at her futile efforts and easily removed the gloves on her hand and was instantly surprised when she noticed an extremely familiar tattoo over the Grim Winged Serpent's right hand's middle finger. 

"So, you are one of Mistress's victims!" Livia exclaimed because that tattoo was none other than the thief symbol like the one she had!

But the difference was the Grim Winged Serpent's thief symbol didn't have horns like Livia's. 

The Grim Winged Serpent was startled when she heard those sublet words, and then it suddenly looked at her thief symbol, which was like a scar of humiliation to her. 

Seeing the Grim Winged Serpent's confusion, Livia, with a cold smile, also showed her pale white hand, and when the Grim Winged Serpent saw the new thief symbol, its eyes went fully wide.

It was also at this moment when it finally occurred to the Grim Winged Serpent, as she looked at Eva behind Livia and shrilled with abhorrence and disbelief, 

"YOU COULDN'T BE THAT DAMN THIEF, SKY STEALER!?!!!"
