=====
Ace\'s expression was extremely dark as he looked at the mission\'s punishment. Although the prerequisites were quite not difficult to fulfill, he wasn\'t happy with this sudden deadly mission.
"System, what kind of shit are you pulling right now? If you want to push me to my death, then just do it already. There is no need to play the long game?" Ace coldly transmitted his gloomy thoughts.
It was his second time getting a mission with the death penalty, but this mission wasn\'t like the first mission at all. It was related to some core secret of heaven itself. Furthermore, this also had something to do with being a heaven\'s stealer.
If it were any other time, Ace would\'ve been not so indignant, but he wanted to leave this place to save Alina, so he was naturally furious about the system pulling a fast one on him at this time.
Since this mission was triggered in this place, then it meant it had something to do with the Union, and he wanted to leave this place, not stay here to investigate these mysteries.
The system replied at this moment without any emotions behind its static voice, "[The Heaven\'s Stealer Mission is very important for a Heaven\'s Stealer. Any Heaven\'s Stealer would have to go through these missions if they wanted to prevail.]
"[When a Heaven\'s Stealer is born, they became sworn enemy of the Heaven and from that moment on, the last standing will either the Heaven\'s Stealer or Heaven. The host has chosen this path and was not forced by anyone.]
"[If the host wants to survive longer, the System suggests completing this mission, or there won\'t be a point in living anymore since death will come eventually. So, it didn\'t matter if it came sooner.]
"[The path of Heaven\'s Stealer is only forward; any other direction contains death. This is the true consequence of having the power to steal from heaven!]"
Ace was speechless as he didn\'t have any words to refute the system anymore because the system was right. No one forced him to choose this path. He was the one who decided to walk on it when he decided to steal from heaven.
From that day onward, his journey to this point has never been easy, and he became what he was today because he was walking the path of no return.
His rage dimmed down quite a bit. But it didn\'t mean he was going to jump the cliff without knowing what was down there.
So, he asked, "At least tell me what is this heaven\'s secret, and why is it so important, and why can\'t you reveal the details like every other mission?"
"[Host only needs to know is the Heaven\'s Secrets is key to Heaven\'s Stealer survival. As for why System can\'t reveal all the details, it is because Heaven\'s Secret can\'t be known to anyone unless the barrier hiding it becomes weak to the point where heaven\'s secret becomes apparent.]
"[As long as the host completes the mysterious conditions, this would weaken the barrier hiding the core secret of heaven, and only then can you know the final condition to get that Heaven\'s Secret.]
"[Even knowing the conditions of weakening that barrier without having the mastering over Heaven\'s Stealer skills is akin to death.]
"[That\'s why every mission contains the death penalty because the moment the host knows about the mysterious condition, you will only have a certain amount of time to fulfilling it before you will draw the Natural Order\'s attention and then die in a heart-wrenching manner soon after. So, the system could at least make it painless.]"
Ace was completely speechless when he heard the true reason behind all this, "So, I can either die painful or painlessly if I screw up, right?" He asked with a rueful expression.
This was really not the result he was hoping for, but he knew, as the system stated before, that death would come eventually if he didn\'t become stronger, so what is the point of living a little longer in some illusion?
"[Exactly!]"
"Hey, why are you standing there dozing off? Get out of the way, and let the gates get close!" A perplexed voice rang at this moment, awakening Ace from his daze.
He saw a green robe demon standing a few meters away from him, looking at Ace gloomily. The color of his robes indicated that he was a union scholar.
Ace finally remembered that he was so startled by this deadly mission that he had almost forgotten that he had yet to cross the sun gates completely.
"Please forgive me, senior. I was dazzled by the grander sun domain, so I was stunned on the spot!" White smiled wryly as he walked in.
Inwardly, Ace thought ruefully, \'Well, I guess this was going to happen sooner or later, and since the system said this secret is something related to my survival, I have to get it since without it, I\'m as good as dead.
\'The only good thing that happened from it is I got all the rewards of my last chain mission in my system shop now, and the precept five and six are also to my advantage.\'
Ace felt somewhat better as he suppressed his urge to open the shop until he found the place in the common grounds!
