Chapter 958 Old Debuts

958 Old Debuts

United Mainland, demon territory, within a beautiful pavilion, Ace’s avatar was spilling on wine while in front of him were sitting somewhat aggrieved Aliya and emotional Thomas.

Unexpectedly, Aliya was still busy dealing with the change in the continents and expanding the syndicate in Freya’s shoes when she was suddenly visited by an unexpected guest, Ace!

She was shocked because her mistress clearly told her she was going with Ace to deal with some matter. But now he appeared here without any news from Freya, and without even giving her an explanation, he ordered her to summon Thomas.

Aliya clearly does not like Ace and always resents him because he completely changes her mistress into a thief like him. Furthermore, she had no choice but to listen to him because Freya had strictly told her to treat Ace as she treated her, and the syndicate was fully under Ace’s thumb.

So, she couldn’t even retort and had no choice but to do as he said, and what infuriated her the most was his jolly smirk. She felt as if he teased and looked down on her in the guise of calling her ‘old friend’ whenever they met.

But despite her displeasure, she couldn’t do anything to him because this person was a legendary existence who, despite being a thief, was a nightmare for everyone. 𝓵𝓲𝓫𝙧𝓮𝙖𝙙.𝒄𝓸𝙢

As for Thomas, when he heard Ace was looking for him, he dropped everything and instantly came back. Last time, he only heard that Ace had already dealt with the entire imperial domain, which shocked him greatly, and he didn’t know how to feel.

Although this matter was completely suppressed by the people from the secret realm to save them some face, Thomas still dared to investigate. He found Ace had really robbed and killed the higher-ups of the entire imperial domain, even the arrogant demon empress. So, his revenge for his wife was practically over.

Grateful wasn’t the word to describe how he felt towards Ace. Not only did he save him that day and give him a strong cultivation technique to take his revenge, but he even ended up avenging his enmity as well.

Although Thomas knew Ace might have another purpose, he still felt extremely obligated and indebted to him, and he knew he couldn’t pay this kindness even if he laid his life for him.

Ace never owed him anything, but he still helped him as much as he could for this friendship. So, nowadays, he fully focused on cultivation to increase his power so he could lend a hand if Ace ever needed it, even his life.

He knew better than anyone just how much those new authorities of the demon race hated Ace, and calling the entire world his enemy would not be wrong either. Only by getting powerful could he help him.

However, lately, Thomas found that his bloodline, which he once took pride in having, had become a shackle, and despite having a power cultivation method, his cultivation speed was like an old turtle. He was barely able to break into the law awareness realm, and his bloodline shackle became even more apparent.

This was the fate of low-level bloodlines. Escaping their upper limits was as hard as ascending heaven. 𝘭𝑖𝘣𝑟𝘦𝒶𝘥.𝘤𝑜𝘮

“How have you been, Brother Thomas?” Ace couldn’t help but smile nostalgically, seeing Thomas.

Although he didn’t have many relationships, those he had, he cherished them dearly. Thomas was probably the only person he truly considers one of his friends in this world, so seeing him makes him happy.

Even though he can’t change what happened to his wife, at least he is glad he has overcome it.

Thomas’s eyes trembled slightly, hearing Ace’s familiar tone, and he couldn’t help but sigh emotionally, “You’re still willing to call me brother?”

“What kind of question is that?” Ace shook his head, “No matter how much time passed or how strong I become, you will be my brother that I acknowledge. I hope you can still treat me as you treated me the first time we met. Even though I can’t understand your pain, I hope you can move on. I know a sister-

in-law would’ve wanted that for you as well, to live happily, not like this.”

Thomas’s eyes became misty hearing his last sentence as he clenched his fist when Milly’s smiling face appeared in his mind. He still vividly remembered her smiling face when she took her last breath, and a tear streamed down from the corner of his eyes.

Aliya couldn’t help but be astounded when he saw the usually emotionless and fearless Thomas showing such an emotional side in front of Ace. She knew Thomas’s story, for Freya had told her to investigate him deeply.

Meeting Ace and gaining his favor was probably the biggest fortune in his life, but it was a real pity he only managed to understand this until it was too late.

Ace sighed ruefully as he felt sadness seeing Thomas, who was once a happy-go-lucky guy. Fate plays jokes on people like them who only want to live peacefully, while those rotten idiots are always coming on top.

In this view, Ace truly loath Heaven, who always wanted to kill him but ignored all the injustice and wickedness in this world. Although he was also not a good person, and maybe he deserved to die, there were even more heinous criminals out there who deserved to be struck by heavenly thunder more than he did. Yet, only he was targeted by the Heavenly Punishment.

“C-can I really?” Thomas couldn’t help but chokingly muttered.

“Everyone has a right to get a second chance, and even if life is unfair to us, if we don’t fight back, then it means we deserve all the misery. Just continue to move forward no matter what. At least that’s why I’m doing, and I have to admit, I’ve also found happiness in this path.” Ace couldn’t help but smile with gratification as Eva, Alina, and his house members’ faces appeared in his mind.

Thomas inhaled deeply as he greatly calmed down after hearing Ace’s soothing words and solemnly nodded, “I will keep brother’s words in mind. Tell me what you want me to do now; I’ll try my best.”

Ace smiled as he could sense the gloominess around Thomas had greatly decreased. He didn’t seem like a walking corpse anymore.

He looked at Thomas and said with a willy smile, “Brother Thomas, I have a suggestion for you; you should join this Thieving World Society!”

Both Aliya and Thomas were surprised since they knew about this new haven for thieves, and they had been making quite waves lately.

Then he looked at Aliya meaningfully, smiling, “Don’t worry, I’m not going to order you around. This time, you’ll be working with me, so you should put away that hostility. I need you to confirm a person’s location from the human territory. He’s from Soul Flame Sect, one of their high elders named Jonathan.”

Killing intent flashed past his eyes, “I want you to locate him for me. It’s time to pay back some old debuts!”
