Eternal Thief

After hearing about Alina's past, Ace couldn't help but ask, "So, all in all, everything that happened to you in the past is somehow related to this Blood Ancestor, right?" 

Ace could easily tell that whoever this Blood Ancestor was, she was the orchestrator of everything that happened to Alina. Furthermore, the part about Blood Ancestor wanting Alina to enter close door seclusion with her for 500 hundred years irked Ace to no end, and even he could tell Blood Ancestor was up to no good. 

'This might have something to do with this potential she has just mentioned. Could it be she had some fantastic physique?' Ace thought with a grim expression as he wasn't ignorant about these things anymore. 

Alina gloomily replied, "Yes, she's involved in almost everything. You would be surprised to know that the Blood Ancestor Margret has been living since ancient times and was proclaimed as the First Hunter to be born in this world, and our race called her sacred mother. But this fact is only known to top figures of our race, while others think she died long ago. If not for my unique circumstances, I won't know about this secret either." 

Ace's eyes shimmered with surprise at this moment after hearing this absurd news. Furthermore, he also remembered something when he heard the name Margret. 

"Margret? Do you mean to say she is the first leader, the Blood Huntress Margret of the Hunter Race? Is she the Blood Ancestor? Then didn't this mean she's been living for tens of thousands of years?" Ace questioned with apparent astonishment. 

Because he heard her name from the memory they had acquired from the Grim Ancestor, and that guy also thought that she was dead long ago. But it won't make any sense since Grim Ancestor had his racial ability to help him cheat death, but even he had to suffer consequences. 

'Could it be she also wants a body like the damn snake?!' Ace's mind jolted when this thought surfaced in his mind, and he looked at startled Alina. 

"They should be the same, I guess. But you seemed to know the Blood Ancestor?" Alina asked with uncertainty as she thought this should be the most guarded secret of her race, and there shouldn't be any records of Blood Ancestor out there, so how did Ace know?

Ace sighed as he looked at Alina seriously and sternly said, "I only know about her because I learned about the ancient wars, and her role in those wars is not small at all. But I didn't know she was alive and kicking. Listen to me, Alina. You can't go back while that old monster is still alive. I think she's after your body!" 

Alina's eyes went wide, hearing Ace's ambitious words before a tingle of redness crept on his pristine skin as she retorted, "H-how could… s-she a woman!

Ace was startled by Alina's response before he finally noticed her blushing and then understood what he had just said and quickly corrected himself, "That came out in a subtle way! What I mean is she wants to possess your body so she can continue to live. Just hear me out…" 

Ace then told her about his encounter with the Grim Ancestor and told her about his status and then about Grim Ancestor's father, the Beast Ancestor, who was also living by possessing others. 

Alina's eyes went widened with astonishment and fear. The more she heard about this Grim Ancestor, the more she understood what Ace meant about those words, and she also started to suspect the same thing. 

Because it won't make sense for someone to live for so long without dying of old age, and only with this kind of method could one live, and now the Blood Ancestor seemed to have chosen her as her new vessel!  I think you should take a look at ραΠdαsnovel.cοm

A ghastly chill went down her spine as she looked at Ace's grave face and asked, "But how did you manage to capture and acquire such information from him? What were you've been doing all this time?" She was more worried about Ace and even more astonished by his deadly encounter. 

She couldn't begin to imagine just how Ace had subdued such a character, and by the way he was talking about him, it didn't seem a big deal for him at all!

Ace smiled bitterly, "You're still worrying about these small things? Don't worry. That guy was not my match since he wasn't at his peak state. Although he did have some annoying trump cards, I also have my own ways, and once he got captured, even his father couldn't have saved him!" 

Alina was really lost for words as she could tell by Ace's confident tone that he wasn't joking and wondered just what sort of adventures he's been up to that he even dared to capture someone like the Grim Ancestor and succeeded even!

She dejectedly uttered, "Compared to you, I've been living too well, and here I was thinking that I would have many stories to tell you about when he met. But it seemed those stories are just child's adventure to you now, huh." 

Ace shook his head, "I would love to hear about your stories, trust me. That's not important right now, though. What important is you can't go back. Instead, come, be with me!" 

Alina was dazzled by Ace's blunt invitation as her heart suddenly raced, and she had no idea how to answer this.  contemporary romance

Still, she shuttered some words out with a mosquito-like voice, "D-do you mean… like living t…together?" 

Ace was surprised since, with his hearing, he clearly heard those words, and he knew she had taken those words in the wrong way again. But for some reason, he could feel her massive anticipation, and his own heart suddenly raced. 

'What would you do if Alina had romantic feelings for you? She is not your real sister after all…' 

Eva's words surfaced in his, and looking at Alina and sensing her clear feelings at this moment, he knew she had been right. 

But what about himself? He can directly reject in a heartbeat at this moment, but something won't let him. 

Deep down, he knew what he wanted to do, but he didn't want to let Eva down or Alina by lying to her. 

So, he took a deep breath and was about to tell her when she spoke again, "I… I was also about to ask you to leave your life as a thief behind and live with me somewhere far away from all this madness!"
