Chapter 445 Thief Genre…!
Ace didn’t nip the bud because he knew this woman would be more motivated to work this way and let her think she could become the leader in the future. He’ll let her feel the disparity with his actions and coy subdue her!
Freya’s eyes shimmered with a hint of ecstasy. She really wanted to control this Thief House. It was far more appealing to her than anything in this world.
“So, will you give me a choice in the thief genre, or you’ll be a petty person and try to repress me?” she asked gaily.
Her fear completely vanished because she thought Ace also can’t go against the house rules. Although he could control the missions, she knew he won’t be willing to discard her at this moment after doing all this.
Furthermore, she wanted to see the shop eagerly after Ace explain the techniques from the ‘goddess’ will appear there, and she can also increase her bloodline potential.
Ace knew she was trying to provoke him, but he naturally won’t suppress her, since he would be shot himself on foot by doing this.
He ambiguously smiled, “Of course, let’s see what kind of thief you have the affinity with, and you may choose yourself. I won’t stop you.”
His smile suddenly turned icy cold, “But after we’re done you have answered my question which you were trying to dodge all this time and I want the truth or will you believe me if I say I can easily give you a death mission, right here and right now?”
Freya suddenly felt a chill run down her spine. She could tell this guy wasn’t joking, although she didn’t want to reveal her plans. But Ace had already shown his sincerity by telling her about the Thief House and even gave her a chance to select the thief genre herself.
Now, if she didn’t show her sincerity, he might really do as he said, she still didn’t know Ace’s limits of giving the mission, and she didn’t want to test them either.
“I understand.” She nodded solemnly.
If she wanted something, she had to sacrifice something as well, and in the face of Thief House, her secrets were worth nothing!
Ace nodded in satisfaction and looked at the opened thief house interface.

Ace cocked an eyebrow at seeing Freya’s got five options in her thief genre, while Noa only got two. Furthermore, all those options were for controlling the others.
He was more fascinated by Evil Thief since it had the power of three options combined, and it seemed far more useful than other genres, and it also suits Freya’s personality very well.
Freya also noticed the slightest change in Ace’s expression, and her heart tightened with all this suspense and frustration at not being able to see anything. She was afraid Ace would play some tricks and ruin this opportunity. She even bemoaned provoking him now.
However, Ace truthfully told her about the five options, and just as he thought, Freya answered without even thinking.
“I want to be this Evil Thief!”
She was elated hearing the introduction of the Evil Thief Genre and felt this suited her very well. She also felt that Ace seemed completely relaxed about giving her this thief genre, and she became curious about his thief path.
After Ace selected the option, she got heard the ‘goddess’s voice.

“This shop even has a method to awaken my illusionary dark pupil and a corresponding soul art as well?!” she couldn’t help but exclaim as her race.
But she quickly calmed down since she knew she still needed HP to buy that awakening technique.
“I also have to cultivate the Evil Thief Scripture to practice the other soul skills. But this means I have to discard my old cultivation technique. Well, since my foundation is perfect, I’ll be able to change it with some time.” She decided unequivocally.
Although she had her skills and a cultivation technique, after witnessing the Thief House’s shop, she didn’t hesitate to discard them.
‘However, these house points are going to be an enormous problem and only the leader can give missions with house points as a reward or the goddess herself. But I have to depend on him more. Now I understand why he didn’t look wary of me at all.’ She thought grimly as she decided to see the other sections before doing anything.
She opened the treasure section this time,

“This shop even had a grimoire that I needed the most?!” Her entire body trembled to see the Dark Grimoire that she dreamed about day and night!
“I build all this just for the ancestral grimoire. That is the only grimoire in the entire world that can help me, but now I can buy an equally powerful grimoire from this shop. Truly laughable.” She was truly bitter and felt as if her entire life was a joke.
‘I can’t give him a reason to get rid of me. I have to behave!’ She suddenly changed her view of Ace and decided to remain sincere with him, or she would regret it!
She opened the last section in expectancy,
