If he sensed any suspicious movement, he’ll instantly know the very beat.

However, everything was normal, nor did he sense anything amiss, but he didn’t lose his patience and remained expressionless.

Suddenly, at this moment, Ace’s eyes narrowed slightly as he sensed something, and thereupon a blur flashed past his window before a small dart sound rang from the room’s ceiling.

Ace looked toward the ceiling with frowned brows and saw a black arrow.

Thereafter, he made a grabbing gesture before green Qi enveloped the black arrow, and it landed in Ace’s hand.

The arrow was ordinary, but Ace spotted a black ring on the arrow shaft, and he quickly guessed what this ring could be and brake the arrow while grabbing the ring.

Ace quickly used his Qi to envelop the ring and just as he thought the ring was an open storage ring and Ace quickly imprinted his Qi mark to see the content inside.

The space inside the ring was only ten cubic meters, and there were three things inside. The first was a small, simple looking two inches green cube. The second thing was a three inches token in a triangle shape and the last thing was a folded note just like this noon.

The note appeared in Ace’s hand, and he opened it with knitted brows. He had no idea what this person was playing at, but one thing was extremely clear now, whoever this was, it was extremely cautious!

There was only one simple instruction written on this note.

“Insert a peak grade-2 Qi stone inside the green cube and see the magic…”

‘Is this some kind of trap?’ Ace’s expression was extremely overcast when he saw this playful message.

He didn’t know just what this guy wanted or what it was playing at, but he can’t just follow this instruction blindly because this could be a gigantic trap for him or something else that can harm him.

He knows many things can harm others with no need for others to present on the spot. His talismans were such a tool, and that’s why he was extremely cautious of such things as these.

Nevertheless, he still took the green cube out and examined it with his eye skill, but to his surprise, he can’t see anything amiss with this thing, which means his eye skill was not high enough to see past the secret of this cube.

Ace also spotted a tiny black dot on one side of the cube, but he didn’t fiddle with it.

‘What to do? This thing is extremely mysterious and since my soul-shattering eyes can’t see through it, this means it’s at least grade two or might be even higher. Since it also needs peak grade two Qi stone to activate, then it isn’t simple at all. However, this person won’t go to all this trouble just to make a scene and since he knows who I am, he also knows I can easily escape even if he set up this trap. So, to activate it or not…’

Ace was in a huge dilemma and in the end, he took a huge breath as a decisive light flashed past his eyes he quickly pressed the dark spot while he was ready to act instantly.

However, nothing explosive happened. The only thing that transpired was the cube was opened from that spot like a box lid and Ac was astonishing when he was inside, was empty.

But all the sides of the cube were filled with rune symbols, and some of them were even he couldn’t recognize yet.

He quickly guessed, ‘So the Qi stone will go here to give energy to these symbols before this thing will activate. Since it needed energy from a peak grade two Qi stones, this has to be made with at least high grade two runes or even low grade three runes. Some of these symbols are extremely peculiar, and I see them somewhere before…’

Ace mulled over it for a long time before his eye shimmered with uncertainty and the very next moment a formation plate appeared in his, and he examined it carefully.

After a whole five minutes, he exclaimed, “So, my guess was right. Some of these symbols are the same as this communication formation I got from the treasure mountain. But since if only half of the full set I can’t use it and this can only send messages, not receive them. They probably used it to send reports to the high-level lands. But this cube is much more complex than this formation, and it seemed this is also some kind of communication tool and probably a high-level only some demons could’ve got their hands on this thing as well. It seemed I underestimated this mysterious demon’s resourcefulness. Just who are you and what do you want?”

Ace felt even more apprehensive when he guessed the origin of this cube and couldn’t help but felt he should make his escape while he still had the chance because someone who could get their hands on this cube was nothing but ordinary, and he was now completely in the open while the other party was in complete dark which put him in a huge disadvantage, and he didn’t like it the least bit.

After some thought and consideration, Ace decided to use this cube. He wanted to see just what kind of message the other party wanted to send him through this, and he was also curious to see this cube’s capabilities.

Ace put a peak grade two Qi stone inside the cube and close the cube again. If there was anyone else, they would’ve thought twice before using a peak grade two Qi stone because of their rarity however, Ace was extremely rich, and he didn’t care about one or even thousands of peak grade two Qi stones since he can always ‘get’ more!

The moment the cube was closed thereafter, it shimmered in green as Ace saw different white runes appear on six sides of the cube as he carefully examined them.

However, Ace still didn’t lose his vigil since this cube could be a trap as well, and he might be wrong about its nature, so he was also ready to throw it away if he felt anything amiss.

“You finally decided to activate it…”

Suddenly, a voice rang from the cube, which was a mixture of a male and female. Both voices were overlapping and one couldn’t tell the gender of this voice at all.

Ace’s eyes contracted the moment he heard this mysterious overlapping voice, and he was astonished because it seemed the voice was not recorded.

Ace asked coldly, “Who are you?”

He wanted to see if his guess was right or wrong and if he was talking with the other party at this moment, or if this was just a recording.

“Hehe… I’m just like you…” the overlapping voice playfully answered.

Ace was momentarily shocked this time, not because of the answer, but because he was communicating through this small cube with someone from afar.

However, he knew it wasn’t time to become excited over this small discovery and said with uncertainty, “So, you’re also a sword user like me?”

He just can’t admit he was the thief right from the start, right?

The voice playfully said, “Heh, you and I both know you’re not just a random sword genius, right? Mr. Sky Stealer?”

Ace coolly said, “I’m not the person you’re looking for and if you continue to slander me, I’ll have to bring this matter to ‘His Highness’ let’s see if he can ‘help’ you with this search of yours.”

He deliberately dragged the Blade Demon King into this because first it was confirmed he was going to meet with the Demon King very soon, so it would also intimidate the other party as well as it would also give the impression he wasn’t afraid because he wasn’t the infamous thief.

However, the next words that came out of that cube left Ace completely speechless,

“Hehehe… do you think just because you sign that contract of royal demon council, you can hide your identity and remain protected? What if I say I can easily prove you’re not bonded to that contract at all? Wanna bet?”

Ace didn’t know just where this person’s confidence was coming from, but he didn’t dare to take its words for wind after he saw this person’s ingenuity.

This person could even find out about this element sword intent mysteriously and even know about the royal demon council loyalty contract, which means this person’s connections were extremely deep.

For the first time in his life, he was frustrated.

He sighed and said in a meaningful tone, “Can you tell me who are you?”

The voice seemed not concerned about this question at all as it answered with no pause.

“Although I’m not as famous as Mr. Sky Stealer, it is also quite possible you might already hear about me. I am known by the name… All-Knowing Parrot!”
