BXBX NOVEL Chapter 87 - Treasury Location!
The power behind Zelda also stop wasting their resources to find a ghost, after all, it was not easy to search on the scale of huge low-level lands.
Zelda even received the order for going back to her post within a month when the new Pavilion Master of Jade Pavilion will arrive.
Vance in end also gave up and blame all this on Dulce and decided to punish her himself after going back. But he still didn\'t leave, he was waiting for Zelda to leave first because there was a chance she could found out that thief after he leave.
One thought does come to Vance\'s mind and that was to exchange the information about the legendary herb with Pill Flame Organization, but he was still debating over it.
Wes and Colton weren\'t so depressed about this situation because they weren\'t losing anything and Zelda even compensate them with a Low Warrior Grade Skill.
Dion was the one who feeling the most pain since he won\'t be leaving this hell hole any time soon. He was so mad that he even punished Bill his nephew for using the manor guards to find some random person without his approval.
That unknown thief was now famous throughout the land of cities and even gain a popular name after a whole month, "Slippery Rat!"
As for the person in question he was enjoying his meal while scowling heavenly.
"Those bastards are calling me \'slippery rat\' just because they can\'t find me? I\'ll give you all idiots a big surprise this time around. Just you all wait!" Ace was not happy with this new nickname of his.
When he found out this name he \'greeted\' the whole nine generations of that person\'s ancestors whoever came up with it. He like Black Ghost and Thousand Hands Ghost though.
"Well, I better find that treasury now that I finally get the hang of soul probing." Ace completely understand the new ability within a month by practicing on those two pitiful maids.
Now he knows almost everything about them especially Javier with their memories. He can now play Javier even more perfectly. He even fools his mother.
But the time of this ability was still an hour that\'s why it takes him a month to completely grasp it.
Ace waited for midnight and finally sneak outside Javier\'s room. He was heading towards the dungeon where the prince manor kept all those criminals who break rules and one who received punishment.
He was going there because his target of soul probing was none other than the young prince and his \'friend\', Bill Luminous!
Ace felt quite bad about it first but when he found out, that naïve guy was secretly searching for him to help him escape but was punished instead.
Afterward, Ace found out that Bill\'s reputation was not good here and everyone treated him inadequately just because he wasn\'t ruthless and decisive like his uncle! Bill was a carefree person and kindhearted and just wanted to live his life freely but end up here.
From that day Ace didn\'t felt any trouble by robbing this prince manor anymore. Bill even received punishment for his sake, a person he didn\'t even know completely, and by just following his own heart.
Ace wanted to free him but was powerless because if even the wind of him reached those morons that he was here they would do everything in their power to capture him. Hence, he could only let it be for the time being.
A heavily guarded building came in Ace view. He felt soul waves of early foundation realm experts from five hundred meters away. This was the advantage of having powerful soul cultivation.
Ace didn\'t decrease his speed and enter the guarded building without even care. Those didn\'t felt even wind of his and stay still like before.
Ace stealth has become more powerful after he entered the middle stage of Heavenly Foundation and these early-stage qi foundation experts are nothing in his eyes now.
There were many low-level traps but Ace passed them like it was nothing and enter the deeper level of the building.
A potent smell enters his nostrils as he goes downwards and he spotted rows of iron cells. Ace scan with his soul and finally found Bill\'s soul signature.
When Ace reached the last cell in the left row, he saw Bill was sleeping while snorting, \'This idiot.\'
Ace smiled wryly but he was relieved on seeing him fine. But he suddenly spotted some lash marks on Bill\'s face and his face fell. \'That guy didn\'t even spare his own nephew.\' Rage filled his eyes.
Ace clearly knew the difference between friends and foes. And now he considers Bill his friend because of what he did for him.
He was here to prob his memories and want to find the treasury from them but seeing Bill scars Ace can\'t bring himself to do it.
\'I\'m still too soft.\' Ace smiled bitterly before taking out the formation plate from the thief\'s space and lock the area around within the barrier. No one would come at this hour but it was better to be safe than sorry.
Ace didn\'t think he would use this formation like this, after setting the formation he released a little bit of his cultivation pressure solely on Bill.
Bill was having a nice dream of beauties when he felt a mountain fell from the sky and his eyes sprang open. But that pressure instantly vanished after he awake. He looked around vigilantly to see if his uncle sent someone to torture him, but the cell and its surroundings were empty.
One has to know those iron bars were not normal even an early qi foundation building expert can\'t break them easily much less a guy like Bill who was at the peak of the sixth qi gate.
Bill suddenly saw a figure appearing out of thin air outside the cell and his pupil shrunk in horror. \'Is this an assassin of that organization?\' His view of this world was more boarded than Ace\'s and instantly thought of a terrifying organization.
But when Bill saw the face of this figure in the dim light he was flabbergasted because it was other than Javier!
"Y-you… who ex…exactly are you??" Bill mustered up his courage and ask with a trembling voice. He knew this guy can\'t be that sick bastard because this kind of skill isn\'t something anyone could possess even in the land of kingdoms.
Ace grins broadly and takes off the two-face mask and retune to his usual handsome self.
Bill\'s eyes nearly pop out of his sockets when he saw Javier turned into his \'lost friend\' Asher! He rubs his eyes and saw Asher was beaming at him and somewhat understand what was going on here.
Bill smile wryly while speaking, "Brother Asher I\'m truly flattered if you\'re here to see your friend."
Ace was a little startled by Bill\'s strong control over his emotion and couldn\'t help but praised him.
"Young Prince, truly know me well." Ace didn\'t deny it since he was really there to see him but not like this first.
Bill felt somewhat embarrassed, "I didn\'t know it was you that time. I was truly worried for nothing. I made a fool out of myself." He bitterly said since Ace can change his appearance and hide this deeply he didn\'t need his help at all.
"Hah, don\'t say that I truly appreciate whatever you\'ve done." Ace smile.
Bill took a deep breath and seriously asked, "I know this is me being ungrateful and out my boundary. But I couldn\'t help but wonder, why is my uncle and that old geezer from Golden Hammered was looking for you like mad dogs? Just what did you steal?"
Ace suddenly laughs seeing Bill\'s curious face.
"If I told you I steal a herb higher than the golden grade, will you believe me?" He smiles mysteriously.
Bill sucks a breath of cold air, "So that why everyone is going crazy over it." He was not an idiot and knew only this type of thing can make his uncle crazy.
"Then why are you here in this city and you even change your appearance as that sick fuck. Tell your friend I\'ll help you if I can." Bill was very sharp and connect the dots. He even offers his help without thinking twice, since Ace was here he wasn\'t here for just chitchat.
Ace truly praised this guy\'s intelligence and wonder why he end up like this but still said as his expression turn grave, "I\'m here for plundering the Prince Manor\'s treasury! Now, can you tell me where the treasury is? Even if I\'m robbing your own hoses?"
Bill looked deep into Ace\'s eyes, "Damn, you\'re aren\'t joking." He exclaimed and laugh all of sudden, "Hahaha, Brother Asher, you\'re asking me if I can help you slap that old geezer face or not. The answer is of course yes!"
"The treasury of prince manor was in the…" Bill grin widely and Ace holds his breath,
"Luminous Library!"
