It was common knowledge that every race emitted a unique aura and demons emitted demonic aura and their cultivation was also given special demonic vibes completely different from a human.

But Ace was now turned into a complete demon, with no trace of humanity left on him. This kind of skill or treasures that can do this was unheard of or even if they exist, they will be somewhere in the treasures of those powerful old monsters!

However, Noa was sure even those treasures can’t compete against Ace’s mask!

“Haha, what can I say? I can’t survive without something like this, since my occupation is a bit high-profile!” Ace merely shrug his shoulder and chuckled while lamenting. He was stating a fact, though.

‘Sigh…’ Noa only sighed in wonder, and she knew this was probably one of the treasures that came from the ‘Goddess’ as well and didn’t question anymore. But her dark eyes shone with undenied desire!

“Now, no one can tell you’re from another race! Do you want me to get rid of him?” Noa nodded in understanding and looked at the real Pablo as a hint of killing intent surfaced in her eyes.

She was numb to killing since her job was killing while working under Warden Cane, and it was also natural to kill this silver iron demon and destroy his corpse because it was the only proof left that can expose Ace!

“You don’t have to kill him, just throw him back to where you find him from. We don’t need to get rid of him. He’s not a threat, and leaving him alive is more useful than killing him!” Ace mysteriously smiled as he looked at unconscious Pablo.

“Fine.” Noa didn’t question Ace’s order and an invisible Qi envelope the real Pablo, and she quickly left to throw Pablo from where she found him, obediently!

‘It’s good to have someone to depend on.’ Ace smiled faintly and felt being a leader come with its advantages and wasn’t that bad.

After Noa dealt with real Pablo, she came back quickly, and with a hint of adoration she looked at Ace, who was now a silver iron demon, and asked, “What further instruction leader had?”

Noa finally let go of the little bit of resistance she had toward Ace and completely depend on him.

“We’re going to climb.” Ace merely chucked and moved toward the isolated part of the city walls.

Although he had gained a new face of a demon, he can easily go inside the city. But Noa can’t, and he also had something else in his mind, so going like thieves will be better.

Ace’s words bewildered Noa, but she still followed closely behind.

After they reached an isolated part of the city wall where no one was patrolling, Ace used his soul-shattering eyes and was relieved when he saw the alarming array was only made of eight mortal grade runes and was full of flaws.

Ace took out a long rope and there was a big black iron hook attacked on its one end. It was the same rope he was using to climb and descend the walls of large cities all these years.

Noa was astonished by seeing the normal rope and quickly enlightened about what Ace meant by climbing.

But she asked with uncertainty, “Leader, this wall is probably protected by an alarming array and if we stepped on it, the city guards will instantly know we’re trying to infiltrate the city!”

“I know, just trust me and follow my every step, and we’ll be fine.”

Ace replied with confidence as he swigged the hook with rope and throw it with full power toward the top of the two-hundred-meter-high city wall!

The hook quickly landed on the top of the wall!

Ace slowly pull the rope and when he felt the hook was strongly connected with something, he was ready to climb.

Speaking of which, this rope and hook can’t be detected by any rune symbols because they were made of normal material with no Qi whatsoever!

“Remember to follow in my exact footsteps, or we’ll have to run!” Ace sternly warned Noa again and started to climb slowly, so she could follow in his footsteps.

Noa also notice Ace’s or Pablo’s solemn face and didn’t dare to take his words as wind. She carefully followed Ace’s every footstep without missing even one as she climbed.

Sometimes, Ace would leap one or two-meter-high with rope, but he would always step on a particular place like a monkey.

Noa was a Qi silver river core cultivator and following Ace’s movement was a piece of cake for her since Ace wasn’t using a skill.

They climb for some time and finally reached the top of the city wall where the slightest chilly wind was breezing, giving the feeling of autumn.

Ace couldn’t help but marvel at the sight of the magnificently lit Iron Demon City and its huge, beautiful buildings from the top of the city wall!

Noa was also feeling ecstatic since they reached the top of the wall without triggering the alarming array, and she also understood Ace just can’t unlock lock doors. He had the means to overcome rune symbols!

‘So, this is a real thief, huh? I never imagine one day I’ll meet and even admire a thief who doesn’t even mean anything in the eyes of the demon race. I don’t know about anyone else, but as long as I know, there has never been a thief in this continent’s long history. He’s probably going to cause a tremendous sensation here. I wonder if he’s famous among humans.’

Noa couldn’t help but let her thoughts wander as she looked at Ace’s broad back with a hint of adoration and anticipation to see more means of this thief, and even wanted to learn them, so she could also become like him!

Ace didn’t know Noa’s thoughts and after enjoying the feeling and admiring the scenery for a while, he said, “Let’s go down, those patrolling guards will come very soon.”

He threw the rope on the other side of the wall and quickly descend with Noa without any discomfort.

After collecting the rope inside his thief’s space, he looked at the iron demon city and smiled before he said to Noa, “I know a place where we can stay and no one will look for us. Let’s go!”

Noa’s eyes contracted when she heard Ace’s claim and couldn’t help but retort softly, “L-leader, you’ve been to this place before?”

She knew for a fact that Ace had never been on the Mighty Demon Continent because, while traveling with Ace; he asked her very common questions about it and her race. Furthermore, he didn’t even know about the legendary grade, so how could he know one of the biggest cities of Ocean Demon Dukedom!

“Hehe, I can steal people’s memories and before taking that demon face, I steal his memories as well, so I’m like a real silver iron demon now and call me Pablo. It’s this guy’s name!” Ace chuckled softly.

He didn’t mind telling this much to Noa since she’ll know it eventually, and it was far better than creating doubts in her head.

“L-like soul search!?” Noa’s voice was filled with horror and disbelief.

She knew what soul search was, and only a soul realm cultivator can learn this ghastly skill!

But she could tell Ace didn’t use a soul search on that demon because it would’ve probably killed him or at least turned him into a vegetable, but she could tell that demon was completely fine after she took him back!

“Soul search, huh? I didn’t know it was such a well-known skill.”

Ace suddenly sneered coldly as Gordon’s face surfaced in his mind since he learned this name from him and even experience this painful skill himself!

“No, it’s not soul search but one of my thief abilities that are like soul search, but it wasn’t painful, nor I can use it on just anyone.” Ace suppressed his grievance, and clearly, Noa’s misunderstanding.

“Despite that, this kind of ability is unheard of and by looks of it, your soul search is more powerful than a soul search of soul realm cultivators because I heard they can only extract memories until the victim remains alive or sane. Besides, it can’t be used in broad daylight. But Leader’s soul search completely on a different level!” Noa’s voice was filled with admiration and wonder, but there was a hint of dread in her voice.

She was now clearly afraid of Ace because by the looks of it his ‘soul search’ was sneaky and meticulous. If he used it on her, she might not even know, just like what he did with Pablo!

“So, this skill is this vicious, huh?” Ace’s eyes turned cold as his hatred for that clone freak reached a new height. ‘I’ll fucking play that guy to death once I become powerful and returned!’
