Eternal Thief

Chapter 283

Noa was now clammed after she organized her thoughts, but no matter what, her heart still raced after just thinking about what happened a few moments ago. She was still thinking it was all just an impossible dream and afraid of waking from it.

But everything was as real as it could be, she thought, ‘I can finally avenge my family and tribe after all these years of pretentious. Ironically, this chance was given to me by this weak-looking human.

‘I just needed to collect the House points now, and I can buy all those powerful techniques and treasures from the ‘goddess’, but when will I get the chance to collect them?

‘These missions probably come from goddess since, but why did there are missions from Leader as well? Can he also give missions, just like the goddess? Well, it’s probably one of the privileges given to him by the goddess since he is the leader…’

While Noa was deep in her thoughts, Ace was going to work on his side mission.

=====

[Side Mission has been issued]

[Side Mission]

[Mission: Please issue a Thief House Mission worth 100 or more House Points]

[Time: 2 Hours]

[Reward: Heavenly Soul Rejuvenation Pill (Grade-1)]

[Punishment: None]

=====

‘First I need, House Points.’ Ace deemed and transmitted his wish, ‘System open the recycle shop.’

Ace had too many useless treasures that were just laying in his thief’s space taking large space and collecting dust, like weapons, slave contracts, low-level pills, locked storage rings, techniques and skills, low-level material, low-level Qi stones…

He always wanted to get rid of them, but whenever he thought about how much trouble he goes through in collecting them, he always hesitates. But now that he has this recycle shop of Thief House, he can turn them into house points. He was quite satisfied with it, even if he didn’t get thief points for it.

====

[Recycle Shop]

[Treasury: Living Thief’s Space]

[Please Select]

====

Ace’s consciousness suddenly entered his thief’s space thereafter, ‘So, I can select like this it quite convenient.’

Ace didn’t delay and said, “Take every Qi stone below middle-level, every slave contract, all those pills, and material that can’t be turned into EXP or SP, all the weapons below seven-star… take every storage ring with Qi marks on it as well. I will not waste TP on opening them. It’s not worth it.”

Ace happily watched all those useless things vanish one after another, and his cramp storage space suddenly became extremely empty. Now there was only a small pile of unlocked storage rings, fifteen mountains of middle-level, high level, and peak level Qi stones, some pills and materials that can turn into SP or EXP, …, nothing else!

‘Now, with all those treasures from lower lands are gone, I can fill it with treasures from mighty demon continent!’ Ace nodded in satisfaction, “That’s it, converts everything selected into House Point!”

====

[Calculating…]

[Converting…]

—

[All the selected treasure has been converted into House Points]

Convert House Points: 10

====

Ace nearly choked on his breath when he saw ’10’, he didn’t dare to believe it and quickly questioned, “System what hell, after I nearly empty all my thief’s space you’re only giving me ten house points?!”

“[All the treasures host converted were too low rank and the system only give fair amount for all of them.]”

Ace didn’t have any way to retort since the system was telling the truth, but he still felt extreme pain in his heart because there were hundreds of millions of low-level, fragment Qi stones and if he gave them away to some poor kingdom, they could’ve become a first-rate power like the Leap Kingdom.

But he only got 10 house points for that amount of wealth. He would naturally be going to feel the pain.

“Fine, open House Points Exchange Platform. I’m not going to use that recycle shop again, ever.” Ace vowed in dismay that he can’t take back the already fired arrow.

=====

[House Points Exchange Platform]

[Exchange Rate: 10 Thief Points = 1 House Point]

[Please Select Thief Point Amount: ___]

=====

Ace considered it since he was running low on TP, and he still needed to buy some things from the system shop before he could leave this place. Furthermore, the exchange rate for TP and HP was just too damn unfair.

“Covert 20,000 TP into HP.” Ace commanded.

=====

[20,000 TP has been successfully converted into 2000 HP[1]]

—

[House Point(s): 2010]

—

[Thief Point(s): 1,668,400]

=====

“System open Make Mission interface of Thief House.” Ace quickly commanded, wasting no more time.

====

[House Leader Mission]

– Make a Mission for All House

– Make a Mission for selected Member(s)

—

[Please Chose one option]

====

“Open the second section.” Ace order.

====

[Make a Mission for selected Member(s)]

[House Members: 1/3]

[Write a Mission]

====

Ace opened the Write Mission section curiously.

====

[Thief House Leader Mission Creation]

Mission: ___

Reward: ___

Time: ___

Punishment: ___

====

‘Let’s see what mission should I give?’ Ace mused.

He didn’t want to give away a too simple mission or too difficult one, so he thought for a while before he suddenly thought of one which was perfect for this situation.

Ace quickly start to speak about what kind of mission he wanted to issue in his mind, and the system filled the blanks for him.

After he completed the content of the mission system will evaluate the reward in HP after that he can only increase them but not decrease or add something more like he can buy something from Thief Assassin Shop and put it as a reward in HP place or do both. It was his choice.

He can’t use those shops’ treasures for himself, though. That greatly disappoint him, or he wanted to buy that Thief Assassin Armor Set for himself. It’s not like he wouldn’t give it back in the future, since it was Noa’s.

But the system didn’t let him be successful in his schemes.

In the end, Ace finally decided to motivate Noa for this mission and bought something from the Thief Assassin Shop and the HP reward.

He wasn’t a stingy person, especially when it came to helping others, and Noa’s strength was going to be his strength in the further. So, it was only natural to help her further.

After finalizing everything, Ace was left with 1510 HP.

====

[Are you sure you want to issue this mission to New Member Noa Night?]

[Yes/Edit Again]

====

Ace selected ‘yes’ with no hesitation. He was quite satisfied with his creation.

Noa was thinking about asking Ace about those missions and see if he could issue her one right now since she desperately wanted all those treasures in Thief Assassin Shop.

But she was hesitating since it would be too much. After all, he just helped her ‘join’ this establishment of Goddess of Thieves. She didn’t want Ace to have a terrible impression of her, since she had already offended him before.

She somewhat knows he probably let her join this Thief House because he was pushed to a corner and took this step to save his life, or he might not even consider giving her this chance.

Although she could tell Ace wasn’t a bad person. However, she had experienced firsthand his shrewdness and his ability to act so calmly in extremely dangerous situations.

She would never forget how easily he told lies, and even she can’t read him with her powerful cultivation. That’s why she was hesitating to further annoy him, or what if he gave some impossible mission or even punishment of death?

She didn’t know what kind of privileges Ace had over her as a Leader but just by her status as a ‘New Member’ and seeing all those ranks in the shop like Normal Member, Old Member, Excellent Member, she knew Ace’s status was no joke, and he can easily get rid of her even with those rules attached!

Although, she was extremely grateful. But by no means, she wasn’t an idiot. She had survived all these years in Demon Duke Mansion and even served the person who annihilated her entire tribe and pretended to be her savior for all these years.

One could tell just how patient and control she had over her emotions and mind, but Ace still fooled her, which made her fear Ace and even respect him!

‘I should wait and see for now.’ Noa decided to remain silent for now and mended her relationship with Ace.

She could tell she was probably the first member since Ace also had to ask for ‘guidance’ after she joined, and this gave her some confidence to win his favor.

However, right at this moment, the ‘Goddess’ voice rang in her mind which startled her greatly and the same shade appeared in front of her, and she thought, ‘Goddess Decree!’

Noa has already named the system panel Goddess Decree. She attentively listened and read the detail respectfully without missing a word.
