Ace’s eyes narrowed when he saw the detail of Thief Genre and looked at two Thief Genres available for Noa and mused,

‘So, it’s like selecting a path for my members to walk in their life, but this path is only related to Thief. I wonder if I had a Thief Genre, well since the system didn’t tell me before, it probably means I don’t need one, or it lets me select in the future.

‘However, selecting a path for someone is completely different, though. I’m not a control freak, and I think everyone has a right to select what they want to pursue in their life.

‘Well, it’s not like they had much of a choice since they had to be a thief no matter what kind they select it made little difference, this section is the only choice they had, so I won’t take it from them.

‘Since I’m a leader, I should act like one and treat everyone nicely, so they won’t feel like they’re in some penitentiary.’

Ace came clean with Noa about thief genre pros and cons. He told her how it worked and once she selected a path, she could never change it and had to walk on it for the rest of her life, there was no room for regrets later.

Noa was momentarily shocked when she heard the explanation about the thief genre because selecting a cultivation path was an impossible dream for her since she can’t break through to the next realm with her limited bloodline and race.

But now she was given an opportunity to change her entire life and walk on a path of her own choices even though it was related to a thief, she still felt grateful from the bottom of her heart to the ‘Goddess’ and especially to Ace who gave her this fantastical chance.

Furthermore, Noa had seen her Thief Genre, which said ‘only the House Leader can select’, which means she didn’t have any say in it if Ace decided to select for her, and he won’t need to give her any explanation. But didn’t do so and gave her a choice, this raise his position in her heart a little more.

“Leader, thank you for this chance, and I won’t make you regret giving me this choice in the future.” Noa suddenly change the way she treated Ace and bowed toward him, even with her injuries.

“No need to stand in ceremony with me. We are both now members of the same ‘House’ and this makes us family, and a family needed to treat each other with courtesy and respect each other’s wishes.” Ace stated with a faint smile like a leader, but one could see a little redness on his face.

‘No wonder those Old Men felt so embarrassed when they were alone after spouting all this nonsense. Being a leader is really difficult.’ He thought as he admired the owners of these memories, he just used to act!

But Noa didn’t seem to notice anything wrong with Ace’s words, and she felt a warmth in her heart when she heard ‘family’. ‘He’s really different.’

“Leader, I decided I want to be a Thief Assassin. I’ll protect our House with my life!” Noa said with undying determination.

Ace could tell Noa was speaking from her heart when she made this promise, and he also felt having one or two members wasn’t a bad thing after all.

“Fine, I select it for you!” Ace said as he made the selection.

[House Leader has selected Option 2: Thief Assassin for house member Noa Night.]

Noa also heard the ‘Goddess’ voice in her head, and the interface appeared in front of her again.

[Your thief house status has been updated.]

Ace also saw this Thief Assassin introduction and felt this was more like a vanguard position in a theft. This was a very dangerous task since he had experienced himself just how dangerous those people protecting the treasuries could be.

“Thank you, Goddess, for your approval and guidance! I will not disappoint you!” Noa quickly praised the system with a resolute voice.

Ace felt his face heated when he saw the reverence in Noa’s eyes. He definitely underestimated the power of Noa’s faith in a ‘God’.

Little did Ace know, the entire demon race was very religious, and some of them were even more devoted than Noa. That’s why Noa was quick to believe that system was indeed a God or if it was any human, they would’ve never believed it so quickly and blindly.

“You don’t need to say it out loud in the future, just in your head, ‘Goddess’ can hear you anywhere. Besides, if people find out we can ‘talk with a god they’ll probably take us for lunatics or worse, come after us to find out about our secret.

“I’m warning you, although we received the ‘guidance’ from the ‘Goddess’. But the ‘Goddess’ won’t save us if we’re in danger or even die. So, in the end, we have to rely on ourselves and keep this an absolute secret!” Ace sternly warned.

He had experienced first handed just how much greedy a cultivator could be, and they can do anything for a chance to increase their strength. Even an extremely shrewd old monster like ‘Gordon’ was hoodwinked by him because of his greed for power.

“I understand. It was indeed a mistake. I was just too excited. The leader doesn’t need to worry about it anymore.” Noa nodded decisively in understanding.

She has been victim to the same thing in the past, and she knew anyone finds out that Ace can ‘connect’ them to a ‘Goddess’. Everyone will hunt Ace to the end of this world!

Noa didn’t want this to happen, since he was her benefactor and the House Leader she had to protect.

“Check your thief house interface.” Ace wanted to see what changes have appeared in Shadow’s interface before checking it on his own end.

“Yes, I also wanted to see what Go… I get!” She was about to say Goddess again, but quickly stop and change her words.

Ace nodded, seeing her being so vigilant already.

Noa quickly opened her thief house status.

Noa was elated seeing the house shop has been finally opened, and it was exclusively for a thief assassin as well. But she didn’t open it and quickly asked Ace.

“Leader, what is this House Rank, and what purpose does it serve?”

She didn’t see this column before, meaning it only appeared after her Thief Genre was selected, and it seemed ‘easy’ to raise as well.

Ace also noticed this and already asked the system,

“[Thief House Rank were placed to determine the seniority of a member, and it’s also represented the contribution they made to thief house. The higher the house rank, the more benefits they will get!]”

Ace simply repeated what the system just told him. He suddenly felt vexed since he had to act like an interpreter because the system can’t talk or answer Noa’s questions like him. It can only send notifications or alerts in their heads, nothing else!

‘Maybe that’s how the system would feel with all my questions as well,’ Ace mused, and finally unravel why sometimes the system refused to answer him.

It was just too damn annoying!

Before Noa can ask any more follow-up questions related to house ranks, he quickly distracted her, “Why don’t you open the shop and see what you get from ‘Goddess’. I’m sure it’ll blow you away!”

Noa’s eyes quickly shimmered with ecstasy, hearing this, and didn’t pay any more attention to Ace and quickly opened her unique Thief House Shop!
