BXBX NOVEL Chapter 502 Stealing a memory?
However, Ville completely regarded Peterson as a harmless junior who was only at the silver soul river cover realm, and he would never have dared to sneak attack him because it was virtually impossible to even break his defense as long as he wasn\'t in the same realm as him.
But Ace\'s soul-piercing bullet was a heavenly skill, and it had reached perfection rank, which made it quite scary for even an intermediate soul realm expert if used correctly.
Nevertheless, it was still only enough to give Ace a few second advantage over his opponent, and if he didn\'t deal with them within this small-time frame, the opponent will not fall for such a trick again.
That\'s why he came as close to Ville as he could before he used his soul skill on the defenseless Ville, which was a complete success.
Ace\'s sharp sword instantly pierced through Ville\'s neck as blood splashed on the floor.
Ville\'s windpipe was completely cut off as he couldn\'t make any sounds, and his eyes were filled with disbelief and abhorrence while gawking at smirking Peterson.
However, Ace knew as long as Ville had breath in him, he can\'t let his guard down because he was a soul cultivator, so he used more soul-piercing bullets while his lightning Qi ran amok in Ville\'s body.
When Ace saw Ville stop struggling, he still didn\'t move back because he was waiting for…

\'Nice.\' Ace smiled before he finally relaxed his grip and put away his sword.
But he wasn\'t done. He suddenly used a soul probe!
Although Ville was dealing, he still wanted to see what will happen because it was only a second since he died, so he was curious.
The biggest reason was, he was at the dead end of the job mission. Even though the system gave him a clue, it was too subtle, and he did not know where to go with it.
So, he was trying everything.
Since he had killed someone, he won\'t let this chance pass to test his theory.
One thing he was clear about was that the soul probe was the key to all this.
Just as he used the soul probe, he frowned the next moment because he could feel the memories were there but can\'t get them because of some resistance.
\'What is this?\' Ace\'s expression turned solemn as he put more force.
Abruptly, Ace felt like he was pulling something from a vacuum. Beads of sweat started to form on his forehead, and his head started to hurt.
But he didn\'t let go of whatever it was as it kept pulling.
At this moment, the system\'s clue suddenly surfaced in his mind again.
\'Memories are like fish in the Knowledge Sea, and if one wanted to fish, they need a Fishing Rod!
\'Did I catch a fish? Did this mean my soul probe is the fishing rod?\' Ace suddenly thought of this, while at this moment his soul probe was successful.
======
[Host has stolen a memory permanently.]
[Analyzing the memory fragment…]
======
Ace was gobsmacked by this sudden notification, as the memory, he just probed entered his knowledge sea.
However, unlike anything before, this memory was like a glass fragment, and he could see everything through that glass fragment.
He was thrilled all of a sudden when he comprehended what had just happened.
======
[Analyzing complete!]
-Result: The memory does not meet any requirements of the Job Mission.
-Final Assessment: Try Again!
======
Ace didn\'t mind this notification, since he had seen the memory fragment he stole; it was Ville\'s last moments before his death, so it wasn\'t useful to him.
However, he was delighted, since he had unknowingly stolen a memory.
Although he still didn\'t know how that happened, he clearly remembered that feeling of pulling something from a vacuum.
\'Memories are like fish in the Knowledge Sea, which means I can gain access to this sea with the Soul Probe and fish out the memories as long as I know how to use my soul probe like a Fishing Rod!
\'It\'s just that I never tried such a thing because I was probably using the soul probe to see what was inside the knowledge sea. I never try to take it or don\'t know how to infiltrate it.
\'Until now, since this guy was dead and his sea was destroyed, the memories were also not protected by the knowledge sea as well. They were vanishing, but I used the soul probe and discovered its other function, which was to use it like a hook of a fishing rod to pull the memories out.
\'If my theory is right, I just have to find a way to infiltrate this sea now, and I\'ll be able to do this without anyone even knowing!\' Ace\'s heart beat wildly as he wanted to find someone to try this.
He quickly tried using it on the unconscious Peterson in his thief\'s space. However, no matter how much he took a memory fragment as he had previously done, he failed, though.
\'I\'m still missing something?\' Ace wasn\'t discouraged at all.
Now that he knew which way he should move, it was a matter of time before he\'ll figure it out.
However, first, he had to clear this bloody mess in front of him. He was still in the life demon auction, and he had many things to tend to, so, he would think about the soul probing after he was done here.
He quickly saved Ville\'s face before he stored his dead body in an empty storage ring.
After cleaning everything up, he looked inside Ville\'s storage ring. The old man was quite rich, not as rich as a life grandmaster like Gatlin. But he was still greedy for ten million Qi stones and died because of them.
Nevertheless, Ace found a list that he was looking for all this time.
It was the list of every person sitting in the VVIP rooms on the 20th level. Lastly, he also saw an envelope between this list, and when he opened it and saw the content, his lips curled upward.
\'Royal VVIPs Room No.0!\'
Although there wasn\'t anything else, he could guess that Room No.0 was for the royal zone or someone from the royal zone. He had already done his research in these two months.
Although these demons never appeared in public, their traces were all over the place. With Freya, it wasn\'t hard to know what they were up to.
Ace also disguised himself as Ville. He was now a Level Manager from the Auction Attendant. But he didn\'t have Ville\'s memories, which could be a problem.
However, he had to take this risk for his real purpose.
Peterson also can\'t disappear right now, or it might raise some suspicion after what Peterson has done in the last bid.
He sat in Ville\'s place and waved his sleeve before unconscious Peterson appeared on the floor.
Ace pointed his finger and dark lighting flashed into Peterson\'s forehead before his eyes snapped open.
Peterson had a bewildered look on his face when suddenly he felt a sting on his back, and he glanced around with killing intent.
"Bastar…"
However, before he could curse, his word caught in his throat as he looked at Ville\'s cold visage.
"L-life Master?!" He was now flabbergasted about how he appeared in front of Ville, and his expression went pale.
Ville coldly said, "Someone tried to impersonate you. I had to say I\'m disappointed."
Peterson\'s expression was ashen when he heard it, and quickly try to explain, "T-that… it was that bas…"
However, Ville raised his hand to make him shut up. He coldly said, "I have taken care of him. Do you think it\'s that easy to infiltrate our auction? You may return to your post now.
"But the president has some instructions for you. If you accomplished them, your previous gaffe will brush off."
"P… President?!" Peterson\'s breathing turned rigged as his face almost turned white with sheer horror.
He knew what kind of existence President Ewan was, and if he had instructions for him, this means he also knew about his gaffe. It made him nearly lose consciousness again because of sheer fear.
Ville didn\'t mind his overdramatic reaction and stated, "First, you can\'t tell anyone about it. Second, if someone asked something you have no idea about, just say I don\'t want to talk about it. Lastly, if someone asked you about an item ticket, you\'ll tell them you handed it over to me, and they can find me if they want.
"If you did well, you will not be punished, and I might even reward you. Is that clear?"
Although Peterson did not know what was Ville talking about, as long as he can walk scot-free, he will do anything. So, he quickly nodded solemnly and left!
