Eternal Thief
chapter-937

The bonny man's eyes were flashed with luscious light as he moved his hand to uncover Noa's hidden face while her eyes were spitting naked, killing intent. She felt extremely humiliated at this moment.

"Scary, scary… but I like it…" The man licked his pale lips as he took another long sniff while removing her hood, her long black hair like moonless night revealed and a black mask, only her pitch-black eyes riddled with killing intent were visible.

"Don't you think it's offensive to touch a maiden without her permission?" An icy voice suddenly rang, making the man's lecherous expression warped.

His heart churned. He didn't even have time to give Noa attention before quickly waving his horsetail whisk at lightning speed.

However, as the purple rune symbols were condensing, a pitch-black sword slash had already appeared on his left side, and it was filled with darkness that could consume everything, and those runes shattered in light dust!

'Not good!' His expression turned ashen, and he quickly formed a hand seal. Suddenly, a wooden mannequin appeared in his place in front of the dark sword slashed and cut in half.

At this moment, a shadowy figure appeared beside Noa, and she instantly felt a familiar sense of relief. The mysterious force restraining her vanished.

"L-leader!" She happily called, but then her expression sank, and she felt mortified. She was extremely ashamed of herself. Furthermore, she was still saved by Ace, and if he wasn't here, who knows what would've happened?

"It's not your fault. That guy is in an intermediate-stage law comprehension realm and is probably a low-grade-8 rune crafter. A hidden powerhouse, you can't fight him yet. If you were in the law awareness realm, you could've fought him to draw. Now, rest, let me handle that lecher." Ace consoled her. He knew it was quite a blow for a headstrong woman like Noa. But he knew it wasn't her fault. It was just her opponent was too powerful.

Noa was surprised when she heard that man was in the legendary realm, not to mention the legendary grade-8 rune crafter. These two titles were enough to scare the masses.

'No wonder I couldn't sense him, and he easily snuck up on me. But then how strong is the leader to make him scared like that?' She couldn't help but look at Ace with adoration before her eyes turned resolute, "Be careful."

She locked her hand with his, making Ace surprised a little, and then he sent her away while the sensation of her warm touch remained and that gentle look of adoration.

He couldn't help but smile wryly, 'I need to sort these things out…'

But he knew it wasn't time yet, as the expression went deadly cold. He looked on the fate map and spotted a red fate point a hundred miles away from his position.

'He sure has some trick up his sleeve, but he messed with the wrong people.' Ace sneered before he vanished with the ship.

Now that his thief sense had a 1500-mile radius, the fate map was the same. It was now impossible to hide from its detection until someone had a treasure higher than the mortal sky's level.

Furthermore, Ace had already used his new soul ability, the Thief's Advent, on that man before he attacked, so it was even more impossible for him to escape from him now.

Ace also wanted to know this person's background, especially if he was really a grade-8 rune crafter.

One had to know that there weren't even five grade-7 rune crafters, yet this guy not only had the eighth realm cultivation but also had rune crafting skills of the same level.

Ace couldn't help but think about the Sea King, Pen. There were more experts hidden in this world, and this man might be one of them.

Ace quickly covered a hundred-mile distance and looked at the chaotic sea as small waves were crashing into the sea one after another. He didn't see anything, but with the thief's advent, he easily pinpointed his target's location without even looking at the fate map.

Smiling coldly, Ace suddenly entered stealth before he turned into a shadowy mist and headed down. This stealth was top-notch with shadow law addition, and no one can sense him if he doesn't want them to.

On the sea, the man running on the chaotic surface of the ocean was completely invisible to the naked eye as a myriad of runes covered his body. His expression was hideous, and a hint of trepidation was present.

'How can there be such a sword cultivator in this world? Why does that woman have something like that protecting her? She sure smells different from others. She might have some heaven-toppling background. But so, what? Can't do anything to me! I'll find her now that I have her scent, even if she escapes to the depths of hell. But next time, I won't be alone!' His luscious eyes were shimmering with killing intent.

But suddenly, he felt something was wrong. His senses were extremely sharp, almost reaching a terrifying level, and they'd never been wrong before.

A silver talisman appeared in his hand, and he ground his teeth before activating it, 'My life is more important than this myriad mile escape talisman. I can't use another precious substitute doll.'

However, as the shimmering talisman was about to be activated, something strange happened; darkness surrounded him, and the talisman vanished from his hand!

But it wasn't the end. His golden horsetail whisk and then two storage rings on his fingers before his treasure clothes until he was stark naked. Before he could comprehend what had transpired within a few moments, an impossible owl symbol appeared on his face with four words, 'Perverted Sod of Heaven!

Ace's icy voice rang at this moment, "I wanted to kill you, but it would be too easy of an escape from your crimes. Since you like to play with women so much, what would happen if you didn't have your 'toy'? Heh, now that would be interesting to see."

A dark streak brushed past the man's crouch the next moment before everything turned normal.

"Ahhhh…."

Well… except for the pitiful and horrified shrieking of a eunuch!
