Eternal Thief

Chapter 1266: Fiction Knowledge!

While Aceʼs avatar appeared to be in excruciating pain and almost as if its soul was about to shatter, it was all an act, and everything was under Aceʼs meticulous control, who was now sitting cross-legged under a young tree in the avatarʼs inner soul world and watching and manipulating everything with fiction knowledge divine trait.

The Deputy Guardian was only seeing what Ace wanted him to see. At the same time, he masterfully manipulated his avatarʼs expressions and body, which was a piece of cake for him since the Avatarʼs body wasnʼt like living things, yet no one could tell the difference.

Nonetheless, Ace had to admit that the soul-search power emitting from the Deputy Guardian was terrifying. He wasnʼt even an actual Ascension Lord yet, so he didnʼt dare imagine what kind of power an Ascension Lord would have.

Moreover, Ace was also curious why the bank didnʼt send an actual Ascension Lord since he knew it should have many of them available at its beck and call.

Still, Ace focused on fiction knowledge and weaved a web of scenes that he wanted the Deputy Guardian to witness.

The first scenes showed that ʼAlanʼ didnʼt have memories of his birth. All his memories began when he was only 15 years old when he found himself on a mountain under the care of a mysterious old man.

To make it even more realistic and the old man even more enigmatic, he blurred the old manʼs appearance because he couldnʼt seem to remember the old manʼs face at all, no matter how he tried.

Afterward, Ace added some memories, like the old man giving him the name Alan and then Alan being taught by that old man how to cultivate. He also added some clues about Alanʼs bloodline and talent that the old man warned him about.

Then, one day, Alan suddenly found himself out of that mysterious mountain range, which was actually inspired by the Sun and Moon Sword Sectʼs mortal domain. Alan had no idea how he appeared here or where that mountain and the old man were; at that time, Alan was only a Soul River cultivator.

After some twists and turns, Alan discovered the Violet Yang Grand Sect and then joined it under the identity of George Edward, an orphan.

Then Ace added real Georgeʼs memories of the Violet Yang Grand Sect while also altering them slightly to make sure he wouldnʼt leave any loophole behind. He made these memories the worst and most tormented memories of Alanʼs life before he escaped the Violet Yang Grand Sect and headed to the AIG Sect.

Afterward, Ace just made the scenes of Alan encountering assassins, falling into a natural formation, and meeting the Sky Stealer, just as he told Vincent and the others.

But he added a single detail that he didnʼt tell anyone about, and he also wanted the Deputy Guardian to see this exact detail and the details.

He added the final scene in which the ʼSky Stealerʼ, after teaching George its ʼPickpocketʼ ability, tells him to ʼFind the Heavenʼs Advocate in the Beast Calamity Mountainʼs Sect Alliance Cityʼ if he makes a name for himself with ʼPickpocket,ʼ and Heavenʼs Advocate will let him join the ʼSky Stealer Society.ʼ

Afterward, the Sky Stealer vanished, leaving dumbfounded Alan behind. What happens next is the scene of Alan coming into the AIG Sectʼs territory and using the Sky Stealerʼs ability because he becomes greedy after he realizes its prowess.

But Ace also showed that Alan had no intention of joining Sky Stealer or seeking his ʼminion,ʼ the Heavenʼs Advocate. He didnʼt want to live the life of a thief and just wanted to find that old man whom he considered his father.

Although this was a lot for Ace, it was just a matter of his imagination, and he had already planned all of this. So, after the Deputy Guardian saw all these ʼmemories,ʼ not only did it prove that Alan wasnʼt involved in the theft of the bank, but it also showed Alanʼs talent and why he wanted to let the Deputy Guardian perform a soul search on him- he could handle a soul search with his mysterious bloodline!

Also, Alan hid his real appearance because the Old man told him so and gave him a disguise method, but since the Deputy Guardian wouldʼve been able to see through it, he didnʼt hide it any longer because it would just make him appear more suspicious.

With Fiction Knowledge, Ace portrays Alan as an emphatic young man with a tragic past who wants nothing but to live a peaceful life. His only goal is to find that old man, but he needs high cultivation to search for him, and thatʼs why he is in the AIG Sect.

Lastly, he didnʼt want to join the Sky Stealer because of the old manʼs righteous teaching. He mightʼve had a fool around with a Pickpocket, but he never harmed anyone and only used it when others provoked him.

At this moment, the Deputy Guardian who had seen everything, his eyes were widened with disbelief as he removed his hand from Alanʼs head.

The look in Deputy Guardianʼs eyes became even more complicated when he confirmed Alan was still sane. Despite the overbearing and destructive power of the soul search, Alanʼs soul only suffered slight damage and was utterly exhausted.

This type of injury can easily be healed with soul-healing medicine, which shocked the Deputy Guardian even more and made him extremely curious about Alanʼs uncanny bloodline.

After all, the Deputy Guardian was from the bank, and he knew more about human bloodlines than anyone present in this place. He had never seen and discovered about those inheritors of human bloodlines.

However, none of those bloodlines are similar to or even close to Alanʼs. His bloodline could be said to be the highest grade among any recorded human bloodline, especially with its unusual trait of helping him raise his cultivation by just doing forging or rune crafting! However, the Deputy Guardian wasnʼt the only one who witnessed this strange turn of events. Everyone present in the hall was at least an Ascension Grandmaster, so they quickly discovered that George was completely fine except for his pale and exhausted complexion. His eyes were still clear and determined.

Even Vincent, who was on the verge of going berserk, was startled. He finally understood why the Guardian Spirit suggested something so cruel and why Alan was confident in proving his

innocence.

Nonetheless, this didnʼt mean Vincent would forget what happened today. In fact, he had already decided to take that step; whether he lived or died, he would leave it to fate.

At this moment, Vincent vanished from his spot and appeared behind Ace, who seemed to be on the verge of losing consciousness out of exhaustion. He quickly placed his hand on his back and examined his condition, and he was even more shocked.

Still, he quickly took out a glowing pill and fed it to him before he looked at the Deputy Guardian, who seemed to be deep in thought while his eyes were locked on Alan. He coldly said, ”I think Lord Deputy Guardian had already confirmed that neither George nor the AIG sect had anything to do with that theft. But since the theft happened here, you have our full cooperation. But for now, please leave if thereʼs nothing else.”

However, the Deputy Guardian didnʼt seem to hear Vincent as he looked at Ace, who seemed to be regaining some of his complexion after Vincent gave him that pill. His eyes shone brilliantly as he uttered something that shocked everyone, even the managers behind him. ”Young friend George, or should I call you Alan? Do you want to join our King Sect?”
