Eternal Thief-Novel



Pleasantly surprised by this strange yet welcoming development, Ace couldn't help but look at those two sword cores and their runes as they were now again starting to become dormant with those runes fading away. 

'Just what had I ended up creating?' Ace really wondered at this moment. 

But he didn't have time to be distracted since he could feel the pressure was now increased to a terrifying degree, and the real punishment was about to start. Nevertheless, he was now even more motivated to collect the heavenly thunder as he wanted to fully light those runes in a new color and see what happened. 

With such lunacy thoughts, he looked up, and those big glowing eyes were still looking toward him without having any intention of looking away. 

Ace's lips suddenly curled up as he roared out loud, "How about you come down? Or heaven is a coward and only knows how to strike when the enemy is on the verge of death?" 

Ace's voice reverberated in the entire vicinity with the thunder. A few figures in very sorry states were running away with everything they had, and when they heard his voice, they felt like coughing blood. 

'Which bastard is cursing at heaven?! Did they want to make it even angrier? Just who in the world did we end up offending? I need to report this to Ancestor quickly. But first, I need to escape this damnable place alive!' A winged devil with dark brown skin, while over half of his body was charred and bleeding profusely, was diving deep into the sea with a bolt of red lightning right on his tail. 

On another side, a purple hair hunter was the same, and many lightning bolts were following behind him like a menace. He was controlling a large cube that contained the other hunters, and things were not looking good for them.

Not far away from him, a silver bell was also sinking deep within the sea while a few lightning bots were continuing to strike it like hammers, and now there were multiple cracks on this grade-7 treasure. 

Within the protection of this bell were hidden two demons. One was the demon minister, while the other was a wizened face white color skin demon with quite an ugly and fearful expression on his face. 

"Is that really the heaven's wrath, Grand Duke?" The demon minister asked in disbelief. They had already lost all of their men, and he was only able to escape because Grand Demon Duke saved him! 

They were all taking the voice's word as a joke but not anymore, and they felt deep-rooted fear after experiencing the terrifying heavenly thunder. Whoever was touched by it died horribly, and only those who were quasi-law awareness realm cultivators were barely able to survive, but they were probably maimed for life. 

Even their hidden Law Awareness Realm Experts suffered terrible injuries and were forced to run with whatever they could salvage. The magic beast was fully annihilated since they didn't have any law awareness realm with them. 

These guys were supposed to be their trump cards, just in case someone was able to bring out the spirit fire. But forget about the spirit fire; they were now running for their own lives!

The Grand Demon Duke palely replied, "Fool, do you think another else would be able to put us in such a sorry state?! Pray that we escaped. I'll make those humans pay for what they'd done to us. Not only they took the spirit fire and run away as fast they could, they even tried to get rid of everyone, knowing that such an existence was guarding the spirit fire and it would seek us out!" 

The demon minister replied hoarsely at this moment, "I… forgive me, Grand Duke, but I was told before that the humans were in possession of the spirit fire by Leland. But to not arouse any suspicion from others, I send him after them with a small fleet of high-level navy officers. He might be on their tail right now, and once we get out, I'll contact him, and then we can snatch it back and take revenge for all those good men!" 

The Grand Demon Duke instantly looked at the Demon Minister as his eyes grew colder and colder, "Very good, you are indeed someone from the imperial domain. This way, we can keep the spirit fire and still pin the blame on them. Giving them a taste of their own medicine!" 

--- 

Ace was not aware of the thoughts of those fleeing fellows, even if he knew he would just scoff at them since he had achieved what he wanted to. From the start, Ace knew his fourth heavenly punishment might not be enough to kill those law awareness realm cultivators since they simply have too many means to preserve their lives. 

So, he used them in the most sufficient way, and now, they will be filled with hatred for the humans who had fled with the spirit fire and even caused them tremendous losses. 

His objective was quite simple. He wanted to sow discord between everyone and then make others put pressure on the human race and even fight each other. But it was still hard to tell if he would achieve it or not, but the seed of discord was planted, and all left to see was when it would grow and bear fruits. 

Right now, he cares about the Heavenly Punishment more, which was really going to start after it got rid of the hindrance. Like always, it didn't want anyone to interfere when it killed the darn Heaven's Stealer. 

At this moment, a vortex eye was shimmering with two colors of lightning like a glowing sun, but the Heaven's Terminate Manifestation still didn't make any move, or it was about to. 

Ace soon found out, though, when a thick streak of two-color thunder shot down on Ace at a terrifying speed, and before he knew it, he was fully enveloped in it!

The central island was also blasted apart into smithereens under the two-color thunder streak, which continued to pour down on Ace like a thunder-waterfall, and his dead or alive states were unknown!

The Abolishment Despair Thunder has finally descended!
