Eternal Thief
chapter-758

On the fifth day after Ace entered the Sun Seeker's Maze, his journey towards the space core and the yang orb was going smoothly, thanks to Cyrus's help.

Today, he didn't seem in a hurry to move anymore as he found a safe place and stopped so he could finally unravel the Grim Ancestor's memories which Freya had annexed after devouring his soul.

Within the Thief's Space, Freya was still sitting in her position like five days ago, but there was a difference. Instead of a cocoon, another beautiful woman was sitting right in front of her like a mirror image.

That woman was naturally Jessie Campbell and Grim Ancestor's former vessel. Albeit, she looked exactly the same. But there was a tiny black rune between her eyebrows as it shimmered darkly.

Right at this moment, the third eye on Freya's forehead slowly closed before vanishing completely, and she opened her human-like eyes, and just like her, Jessie also opened her snake eyes.

"I never thought Witch Avatar would be this miraculous!" Freya muttered with a hint of ecstasy in her voice.

A smile bloomed on Jessie's face as well, which appeared to be quite strange, "Hmm, I look not bad in this dress after all…" She muttered, seeing herself hiding under the Evil Thief's Robes.

This was naturally the result of Freya's Witch Soul Possession Ability successfully creating a Witch Avatar!

Now, Jessie was Freya, and she had full control over Jessie's body, unlike the Grim Ancestor's half-baked method. As for the real Jessie and Grim Ancestor, they were now both part of Freya's as her memories, nothing else.

"Aha, I was just wondering why that annoying wailing stopped all of a sudden. So, you were finally able to tame that snake? No bad, I guess." Eva's cold yet devilish voice rang from Freya's back at this moment.

Jessie's expression went frigid as she shifted her snake eyes toward Eva's smiling face, "Are you judging me? Do you have what it takes?"

Freya and Jessie suddenly stood up at the same time and faced Eva. Although her real face was hidden under the hood, Jessie's expression direction represents Freya's.

A flash of astonishment gleamed in Eva's eyes when she saw Jessie now gave completely different vibes than a few months ago. Although Ace had already told her about what Freya was up to so, she won't disturb her, seeing her ability in action was still quite astonishing.

'An Evil Witch who holds the title of Evil Thief. I must say that husband of mine really stumbled on women with abilities…' Eva thought as she couldn't help but lament about not being the only woman by his side.

Nevertheless, she knew she was still the most extraordinary one, and Ace was the one who made it happen, so she wasn't that surprised that he could make others extraordinary as well.

Still, she was going to make sure to show who was the one boss around here, or how could he maintain her status as his wife and first teammate?

Even though Freya, Winter, and Noa's bloodlines were all upgraded with the help of the system, Eva's bloodline was in no way inferior to Cyrus's in any way, and she wasn't restricted either.

So when the crown on Eva's head glowed in dark light, and a dark malicious aura started to rise, Freya's cold expression instantly crumbled and turned into one of disbelief and spectacle as she felt the same oppressive feeling when she faced Cyrus for the first time, not it was even more terrifying than that!

"Ahem, ladies, give me some face and get along since we are all on the same team here." Ace's somewhat depressed voice rang at this moment.

He was watching everything play out and even let Eva act before stepping in because he wanted Freya to understand Eva wasn't some pushover, and even without the status of House Member, she was still a force to be reckoned with.

Eva's alluring lips rose in a charming smile before the surrounding aura suddenly vanished, "Anything for you, Husband!"

Freya, on the other hand, was not happy at all about this small incident as she looked at Eva with disbelief and didn't know what to feel after what she just experienced.

'Just who in the world is she?' She thought as she clearly never seen racial features like Eva before, but she now gets it why she didn't seem to be bothered by her at all.

Suddenly, Jessie smiled and performed a noble greeting out of both Eva and Ace's expectations and said, "Now I know why you are our Leader's wife. I hope you can forgive my previous uncouth behaviors. As his subordinate, it's my duty to see if the woman he chose is worthy of his status or not since it would also directly affect us. Now I'm relieved. You are far more than what we could ask for our leader. Please accept my greeting Mrs. Leader!"

Ace was speechless as he never expected Freya to change her behavior as fast as him and couldn't help but smile wryly, 'She's still that scheming woman I met that day…'

However, Eva was quite pleased with how Freya called her at the end despite knowing it was simply too unnatural.

"No worries, as long as you don't cause trouble, I won't mistreat you!" Eva said with a meaningful smile.

Although Jessie now held a smile on her face, Freya's hidden face was as cold and impassive as ice while her eyes were shimmering with a peculiar light.

"Alright, since there are no more issues, can we get on with the task at hand?" Ace's impatient voice rang again.

Although this doesn't go as badly as he had imagined it to be, he knows Freya too well. So he was convinced there was something going on in her evil mind.

Jessie spoke again with a smile, "Of course, I must thank you for giving me this body, or I wouldn't have found this kind of body that easily. I also know what Leader wanted to know. You want to know if there is a way out of the Fiery Hell Secret Realm which doesn't lead to the Union, right?"

"Yes." Ace wasn't surprised Freya guessed his actual motives since this was pretty obvious, as she also knew about his situation with the Union.

However, Jessie suddenly smiled, full of meaning, as she revealed, "Leader, I think that matter is not so important as the matter I'm stumbled upon in Grim Ancestor's memories, and you're really gonna wanna hear it!"
