Chapter 1054 Space Treasury

Chapter 1054 Space Treasury

Ace's pupils contorted when he felt the abrupt change in Riana's aura. It was like she was an entirely different person. Furthermore, the white glimmer around her gave him the same feeling as the Star Compass.

"Humph!" Ace coldly scoffed, completely unfazed by her beastly attack, and activated his ability before she could reach him, 'Thieving Switch!'

Ace had long marked her with a Thief Mark, and the moment he activated the thieving switch, their position instantly changed.

Riana, who seemed to be under some spell, couldn't touch Ace. She landed directly on the chair and blasted it apart.

Ace didn't give her any chance to retaliate further, and a dark streak shot out from his sleeve. Like a snake, that dark streak coiled around her voluptuous body and instantly issued another command with a thought.

'Soul Restrain! Soul Binding! Soul Shackle!'

The dark, thievish soul cord instantly shimmered in a dark, ethereal glow before Riana's squirming figure completely stopped. Her white eyes turned back to normal and listless, like a corpse.

Ace mused with a grave expression, 'Was that some kind of trigger that Holy Mother left within her? The moment she thought about going against her, it was triggered, and she directly attacked me. Just as I thought, these 'helpers' are nothing but conmen who only have their own interests in their minds.

'Well, I wanted to recruit her Eva to elevate her depressed mood, and she's also a glittering silver fate point, so keeping her wasn't a bad idea. Especially with these Karmic Scissors on her, which might be what this Holy Mother wants...

'Sigh... it won't be so simple now with this strange restraint on her. I had already used the cord to immobilize her, but what would happen once I freed her? Should I just get rid of her or send her to the thief's space?

'I can't have the cord immobilized, a Grade-9 treasure, when I'm about to start the mission. The thief's space should be able to keep her in check, and Eva might not lose to this Holy Mother's wisp of power anymore...'

Ace felt slight pity for Riana because of her past, and he also found it a waste to kill a fantastic physique holder like that. So, in the end, he sent her directly to Eva's house and told her about what had just happened.

Eva has been in a gloomy mood since Ace told her about the system warning, and she really feared she would be sent to the abyss despite not showing it. Ace was worried about her, but he knew he couldn't do anything at this moment.

When Eva saw Riana's dark-clad figure and heard about her story from Ace, she was shocked before her eyes lit up.

"Don't worry, as long as this Holy Mother isn't above laws, I can take care of her." She confidently declared before she suspiciously narrowed her eyes, "But do you really capture her just for those words that I told you in the past?"

Ace smiled wryly, "You still have the mood to crack jokes?"

Still, he was secretly relieved seeing her reacting like her normal self.

She became depressed and gloomily replied, "Hmph, you've already promised me that if you sense danger to your life, you'll let me go, or I'll never forgive you!"

Ace didn't reply this time for a while before finally sighing, "Just trust me, I'll extend the time for now and then curb this problem for good. Oh, if I get the chance, I'll send you Sofia as well."

Eva couldn't help but feel warmth in her heart, but she was also worried. Yet she still pretended to pout displeasingly, "Just admit it. You want all these women to yourself."

"As long as you approve of those women," Ace cackled jokingly before he turned his focus back, and his smile vanished.
