Eternal Thief

Chapter 647 Divine Traits

After 'clearing' the treasury, Ace looked at Eva, clearly implying to open another treasury if there was any.

Eva scanned the entire treasury with a thoughtful glance before she said, "There's no more hidden passage anymore, and this is the last 20th floor."

Ace couldn't help but frown, "This is not right. I don't believe someone like that old ghost would have only this much wealth. We didn't even find any pills, elixir, arrays, formation, or even knowledge."

Eva also agreed with Ace's point of view, but she also had her own thought on this matter, "It's also possible that he had already lost all his treasure and was barely able to escape with this tower.

"Don't you say this tower is on the verge of breaking, and since that old bastard was only a soul wisp, then this means he had encountered a terrifying enemy who left him in such a dead dog-like state!"

"Although you are right…" Ace's eyes shimmered sharply, "That old ghost was too cunning, and I don't believe he hadn't left himself a way out of such a situation.

"He never trusted the tower spirit at all, so he most likely had never left the treasures he needed in such an obvious place where the tower spirit can easily assess them."

Ace suddenly thought of something, 'The compass arrow always pointed me to the next floor entrance, which was a bright golden color, and I thought it was pointing toward the exit. But after I got that broken mirror, I think it was pointing me toward that black mirror. But what if there was even more? This tower was colored in Bright Golden after all…'

The next moment, he activated the live fate map to conclude his conjecture. But he wasn't too hopeful because this compass arrow only pointed at something useful for him, and he couldn't think of anything more useful than that broken mirror.

The broken black mirror was really worth of Bright Golden color treasures, but now that he didn't find the Moon Fiend's wealth thoroughly lacking, he was naturally suspicious.

The moment the fate map was active, Ace's eyes winded in astonishment because, within the gray map, he saw two shocking things. First, a new color fate point, it was glittering Pink, and it was standing right beside him.

So, he easily guessed that this pink fate point represented Eva.

Lastly, there was a Bright Golden area on this floor where the dark golden compass point was still pointing, which made Ace's suspicion true. There was really a hidden place here, and the Bright Golden also represented there was still something useful for him here.

But he was more interested in the glittering pink color. Since this was related to Eva, he naturally wanted to know about it first.

He questioned curiously, "Moira, what this pink color represents?"

Moira replied with a peculiar tone, "The color pink represents someone's Love toward you, Sir. Ace. It is also divided into three shades, Light, Bright, and Glittering, and these shades represent three different types of love.

"Light Pink color represents pure love, like Parental Love, Elderly Love, Sibling Love, and such.

"Bright Pink color represents carnal Love toward the opposite sex, like deep attraction, extreme adoration, affection, and such. Anyone with a Bright Pink shade color will not resist your advance. There are very high chances of a Bright Pink color turning into Glittering Pink as well.

"Lastly, the Glittering Pink color represents True Love. No one can define what true love is, not even fate. True Love is unpredictable."

Ace was speechless when he heard these unexpected details about the Pink color's fate point. He never thought the Live Fate Map could even reveal something like love.

Still, he couldn't help but glance at Eva, who was silently looking at him with gentle eyes without disrupting his thought. He could help but feel gratified by having her around him.

He smiled gently at her and said, "I think I found something interesting."

Eva smiled brightly, flaunting her devilish charm, "What do you find?"

"A dead man's treasure, I guess." Ace coolly chuckled and started walking toward where the golden spot was on the fate map.

Eva didn't ask anything and just followed while hugging his arm.

They finally stopped at the east corner of this space, and there was nothing but a wall, but Ace could easily see the compass arrow was pointing right above this corner.

But despite using his thief's vision, he saw only a normal wall.

"There is something behind this corner," Ace told Eva.please visit panda-:)ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.co)m

"Are you sure?" Eva squinted her eyes as she looked at the corner.

"100%! I have something that can reveal treasures to me." Ace nodded, full of confidence.

But he didn't reveal the existence of Moira, not because he didn't trust her, but because the Eternal Thief Fate Compass origin was simply too dangerous for anyone to know, just like the system.

Eva also didn't pry any further since she completely trusted Ace and looked at the corner with her black and crimson eyes.

"There's nothing about having a hidden space here in the memories I got after inheriting this treasure, so it meant this space was specifically made by that old bastard to hide his personal treasures. Just as you said, he didn't even trust the treasure spirit.

"But did he really think he could stop me if I wanted to take his treasures?" Eva sneered coldly, which baffled Ace.

"You mean you have a method to unlock this place?" Ace couldn't help but ask with excitement in his eyes. He can't even see the restriction, much less unlock it, so he was somewhat disbelieving that Eva could despite having no cultivation whatsoever.

Eva gave him a mysterious glance before she revealed, "I can't open it, but I can enter it as long as there is a space behind it. This is also the only Racial Ability I awake after completely assimilating the Shadow Abyssal Devil Bloodline."

Intrigued, Ace asked, "What kind of Racial Ability?"

Eva slowly released his arm and walked toward the corner as she said, "Racial Abilities are known as another name in the world of cultivation."

She then put her hand on the wall as she twisted her head and looked at Ace with a meaningful smile, "They are called 'Divine Traits.' And my divine traits are 'Deific Shadow.'"

Before Ace could understand the implication behind her words, his eyes went wide because all of a sudden, the runes on Eva's arms shimmered before she started to turn corporeal and vanished from her spot.

Ace instantly activated the thief's sense, even heavenly sense, but he couldn't find any trace of Eva, as if she had completely vanished from this place.

Not only that, but she had also vanished from the fate map detection, which was even more appalling since this meant this Deific Shadow was even on the level of that old ghost and tower spirit.

Eva's whispering voice rang right beside his ear, "Do you still believe you can go against someone with Divine Traits? And more just one?"

Ace's expression darkened since he didn't even sense her getting so close to him, and a sense of fear welled up in his heart when he finally understood what a Racial Ability represents.

But he regained his calm quickly as he sighed, "Sigh… it seemed I have a lot more to learn."

Ace then suddenly turned his head to another side, which was completely opposite to where Eva's voice rang. He smiled at the empty space and confidently said, "But I will still say those exact words. As long as I'm strong enough, no one can stop me from stealing what I want.

pαпdα-ňᴏνê|·сóМ "As for you, my wily wife, your tricks are meaningless. As long as I focus, I can sense Ring of Endearment's presence. Nice try, by the way."

"Hmph, what a killjoy." Eva's displeased voice sounded right where Ace was looking.

Ace tried to grab her, but to his surprise, there was nothing but wind. But he knew Eva was right there, so he was alarmed by this sudden discovery.

"Hehe, so what if you can sense my location? You can't catch a shadow, do you? As long as I'm in a Deific Shadow state, no one can detect me or attack me as long as they don't have an even stronger Divine Trait than me.

"Oh, and most importantly, not even formations or walls can stop me from passing through. Remember, only a Divine Trait can fight Divine Trait. So, now I'm going to look for treasures. You can just stay here and act smug all by yourself. Hmph!" Eva snorted with great smugness in her voice.

Ace was again stunned and finally understood the true terror of a Divine Trail, and his expression was somewhat pale.

'If what she said is true, then I might find myself in trouble if I encounter someone with a Divine Trail. Especially Divine Traits like Eva. She's literally invincible in this Deific Shadow state.

'No, nothing is perfect in this world. These Divine Traits have to have some kind of drawback or weakness. That fickle devil will reveal it to me. If I please her…'
