Chapter 1348 House Meeting! (1)
The first one to answer the house meeting summon was Zaria, and the moment she appeared in the thief’s house hall, she instantly found Ace sitting on his leader’s potion.
To her surprise, there was a dark bird with a dark blue patch of hair around its head like a crown sitting on Ace’s shoulder and another cute hamster with glister golden fur and black runic markings sitting on his other shoulder. The moment Zaria saw those two magic beasts, she felt her own bloodline stirred, especially when she looked at the raven-like bird; a hint of fear rose in her heart.
Ace, who was happily chatting with Cyrus and Chuchu, who had just woken up shortly after his breakthrough in the Ascension Master Realm, instantly noticed Zaria’s presence.
Cyrus also noticed Zaria’s presence and looked towards her curiously before his eyes shimmered with curiosity, “A new big sister?” He asked.
Chuchu also looked over towards Zaria, following Cyrus’ gaze; she was now a 1-Star Ascension Grand General with a mutated bloodline, all thanks to Ace’s primordial beast space, while Cyrus’s cultivation was still connected to Ace.
Chuchu instantly noticed Zaria’s frightening prowess with her bloodline, but she didn’t feel any fear; instead, a hint of vigilance and longing appeared in her cute eyes as she glared at Zaria in her human form.
“Yes, so be respectful.” Ace nodded smilingly, very pleased with Cyrus’s manners, and looked at Zaria, who was looking at Cyrus, and beckoned, “Take a seat.” However, she didn’t follow and asked with pursed lips, “Where is Leah? You took her without informing me, and then you didn’t even answer my calls!”
Ace sighed. He had seen her calls just now, but when she was calling, he was busy with Heavenly Punishment, so the system probably didn’t notify him because, at that time, even a slight distraction could’ve been fatal.
But it still won’t change the fact that he worried Zaria and knew how much she cared for Leah.
He smiled apologetically and explained, “I was in the middle of a breakthrough, so I didn’t notice. But don’t worry, Leah is fine; she’s been playing in your chamber, and with all the things I gave her, she won’t get bored anytime soon.”
The next moment, with a thought, Leah suddenly appeared in front of Zaria, looking bewildered as she held a few spirit coins in her hands and seemed to be in the middle of placing them somewhere.
But when Leah noticed Zaria, her eyes instantly lit up, and she happily hugged her thighs, “You’re back, big sis! Leah was building a coin house for us in our lands!”
Zaria was instantly relieved when she saw Leah, and just as Ace said, she seemed extremely happy. She flashed a gentle smile and rubbed her hair lovingly, “You brat, it seemed you are rich now, even building a house with coins, huh?”
Leah giggled as she said, “It’s all thanks to Elder Brother Ace.”
Zaria raised an eyebrow with surprise as she asked, “Elder Brother?” she glared at Ace suspiciously. Ace, who had been smiling, instantly stiffened and coughed as he explained, “Don’t look at me like that. Little Leah and I made a fair trade. I gave her all the spirit coins, and in return, she’ll call me Elder Brother.”
Leah nodded quickly as she interjected, “Yes, yes, now all the coins are mine, and I’m building us a house. Did I do good, big sis?” She looked at Zaria as if she wanted to be praised.
However, before Zaria could reply, her eyes narrowed because Cyrus suddenly flew towards Leah and hers. Even Ace was startled by Cyrus’s action and suddenly had a very bad feeling when he sensed Cyrus’s excitement.
Since Cyrus was close to Ace, Zaria didn’t do anything, but her eyes were filled with vigilance as she looked at him; she knew Cyrus wasn’t simple from her bloodline reaction.
Cyrus seemed to ignore Zaria as he didn’t seem worried about Zaria at all since she was in the thief’s house. He knew only those approved by Ace could come here, and Ace would never tell him to call a stranger big sister, which meant that Zaria was a friend.
Leah seemed to notice Cyrus and felt a strange sensation in her bloodline when he approached and looked over. Her big eyes shone with curiosity, just like Cyrus’s.
Leah suddenly raised her hand towards Cyrus as if instinctively, making Zaria even more surprised, and Cyrus, without hesitation, landed on Leah’s arm.
“Hello, I’m Cyrus.” Cyrus quickly introduced himself.
Leah nodded and greeted back, “I’m Leah, you bastard.”
Ace nearly choked when he heard Leah’s ‘familiar’ greeting, while Chuchu’s flared with rage, and Zaria suddenly smiled proudly.
However, Cyrus, who didn’t know what he had been called, asked excitedly while looking at Leah, “Leah, will you become my Maid?”
Zaria was dumbfounded, while Leah seemed confused, Chuchu in disbelief, and Ace smiled wryly as if he had expected something like this.
‘Little brat, you have no idea who you have proved. I’ll let you get beat up this time, or you won’t know the meaning of restrain, and your strange obsession with maids needed to be over before you drag me down with you!’ Ace decided not to save Cyrus.
He glanced at Zaria; he could tell she had started to boil like a volcano. However, before Zaria could strangle Cyrus, another presence suddenly enveloped the entire thief’s house, and a terrifying aura filled with darkness and deep-like abyss, arrived.
Zaria was alarmed as her instinct screamed danger, and she thought a terrifying enemy had arrived, and this power level might not be any less than hers.
When she detected the source of this terrifying presence, she was shocked because the owner of this aura instantly moved right where Ace was sitting. But the next scene left her gob-smacked because she saw a dark hooded figure snuggling in Ace’s arms, and he had this unusual tender smile as he gently hugged her back.
“It’s been hard on you,” Ace stated in a comforting tone as he wasn’t bothered by her presence at least a bit.
In fact, unlike others, Ace can directly sense her pure emotions through their connection. After all, this figure was none other than Eva!
But then another person entered the hall, and this time, terrifying sharpness instantly locked on Ace, making his heart palpitated!
