Eternal Thief

Ace's expression was unsightly. He never expected them to react this way, at most he presumed the branch master would carry the treasures on himself, but these assassins had completely abandoned their hideout. 

'Sigh… being a thief is difficult.' Ace sighed bitterly.

"Hey, system tell me now, if all those branches emptied their treasures and hide all their treasures or collect them in one place, what would happen to my mission then?"

"[It doesn't matter if someone hides, reposition, or even destroyed the treasures, that's a thief's job to predict all the circumstances before starting a theft. What would a thief do if someone moved or hide their entire wealth?] 

"[It's very simple, everything between heaven and earth can be theft as long as it exists. A thief just had to find a way to theft it. Just like right now, the host had to find those relocated treasures. It doesn't matter if they all collected thirty treasures together, as long as the host theft them the mission will be deemed complete!]

"[Remembered host, it's one of the ironclad creeds of Heaven's Stealer, 'If Heaven's Stealer start a thievery, it had to be complete no matter how tidiest, complex, or dangerous the theft is, Death is the only escape!']" 

'Gulp…' Ace couldn't help but swallow a mouth full of saliva. He suddenly felt his heart race after he heard the creed of heaven's stealer. 

Ace even felt the system's voice was somewhat chilly this time, despite being static as usual. 'Is system angry?' 

Whatever it was, he didn't dare to inquire anymore since he already got the answer to his question, and he also felt he learned something grave unknowingly. 

'It seemed I have to hurry toward Beast City and Flame City before they do something like Nightmare Ghosts Organization.' 

Ace quickly left the gloomy woods and headed toward the capital province of Blue Kingdom without stopping. 

Fifteen days later,

Inside an Inn's room of Blue Royal City, Ace was sitting with a gloomy expression. 

It was all because two days ago; he raided the Flame City of Blue Kingdom but to his daunt, the Pill Master with the entire treasury was missing from the Pill Mansion. If not for the second in command's memories, he would've wasted time while waiting.

Furthermore, Ace also got a piece of bad news from that alchemist's memories. 

It was not just Flame City's Pill Master but the Beast City Beast Master was also with him, they both left together two weeks ago. 

'They know!' Ace's expression was heavy as a mountain. 

He could guess they were probably moving all the treasuries after they found out about the Earth Kingdom and the Leap Kingdom heist. 

They probably deemed him unstoppable and extremely dangerous after his meticulous thieveries despite all those security measures and, finally, conclude collecting all the accommodated treasures and hiding them somewhere he could never reach. 

'If they move all those treasures in a single place and hide them, I just had to find out those people who know about the location of the treasures. But where do I start from? It's not like they would collect all the treasures in one place, since they're three different organizations. 

'Furthermore, the knowledge of those three locations will probably only know by three or two extremely important personals or worse, only one person from each organization would know about it. Besides, they can also be more than three hidden locations. 

'Since they know my methods, they would be fools if they left the treasures in a storage treasure. Sigh… this is becoming more complicated!' He soughed continuously.

Ace felt his head hurt after thinking about all those possibilities and scenarios. 

The land of kingdoms was so big he would probably go mad from searching, and who knows they might transfer all those treasures to high-level lands instead of hiding them in middle-level lands. 

Just thinking about this possibility make Ace sulk nonstop, and he knew; the chances of this scenario were highest! 

---

While Ace was wrecking his brain on how he should proceed, somewhere inside a spacious room, four people were having a secret conference. 

Well, it was more like slaves reporting to their master since three of them were kneeling in front of a sitting, whiter hair man! 

"My Lord, as per your order, we already gave the command to collect all the resources in every branch, and they all will arrive here in five more days." A man in a crimson mask, wearing black clothing, respectfully reported with a hint of trepidation in his voice. 

If anyone in middle-level lands' Nightmare Ghosts Organization saw this crimson mask man kneeling in front of an unknown person, they would be shocked silly because he was the third in command of the Nightmare Ghosts Organization and only below two people, 'Elder Black' and 'Vice Elder Black' and above everyone else! 

However, despite being in an extremely lofty position he was kneeling in front of this white hair man and one could even see him trembling so slightly as if he was facing a deity! 

"Good, as long as you follow my directions I won't mistreat you and even bestow some good fortune before my departure." The white hair man casually praised. 

"Now, Little Pill and Little Beast-Driver, it's your turn to show your usefulness like Little Child Killer here. If anything goes wrong, you know what will happen after I feel annoying." Utter the white hair man nonchalantly, but those two old men kneeling beside 'Little Child Killer' trembled like leaves in a stormy wind. 

The 'little pill' and 'little beast driver' were none other than persons in charge of Pill Flame Organization and Beast Calling Organization right now, just like the assassin beside them!

As for how all these three extremely high and mighty bigwigs of three giants end up like some loyal dogs, it was all because of this white hair man who showed up over a month ago!

This white hair man was indeed none other than, Gordon!
