Eternal Thief-Novel



"What is the meaning of this?!" A First Azure Elder has a livid expression on his face, completely different from his usual amiable one, as he demands an explanation from the original three races of the gathering. 

Not him, but the beast race was also livid because they were not told that this would happen of all the things, and now peak geniuses of their races were lost, and some of them were even their relatives and kin. 

Take the First Azure Elder, for example, he would've never reacted this way and lost this calm, but now he did because his third son was within the ground that had entered the Fiery Hell Secret Realm! 

"How many times did I have to tell you all? We are as clueless as you all! Even my own nephew has been in the group. Do you think I would put his life in jeopardy?!" The Shadow Devil Duke strongly retorted. 

They were really out of their wits, and this was the worst possible thing that could happen, and now they had no idea what to do or how to proceed with all this. 

They even tried to investigate the broken sun symbol slate, but it was nothing but an old rock, and the shrine was not any different. 

Deep down, almost everyone knew that those youths were lost for good, but they were also flustered about the loss of the secret realm and the spirit fire even more. 

"Let's wait and investigate further. I also need to report this transgression to the Grand Elder." The First Azure Elder coldly harrumphed before storming away with his fellow humans toward their camp. 

They were about 90% sure that the others had nothing to do with what just happened, and they needed to seek guidance from the higher-ups on how to proceed further from here. 

The magic beasts were also quite helpless and could do the same as the humans. 

The only people left on the scene were devils, demons, and hunters.

"Do you think someone has destroyed the realm?" The Northern Demon Council Minister asked in a grim tone at this moment. 

The hunter with silver hair squinted his eyes as he replied gloomily, "Do you think it's possible? All the records we have collected in hundreds of years indicate that there are more than three layers of the Fiery Hell Realm, and we haven't even explored the entirety of the third layer yet! 

"Now, you tell me if you guys have someone capable enough to destroy the entire realm? Because as far as our concern, we have none. Only the Ice Sword Fairy is capable!" 

The hunter was from the Silver Ice Clan, and he was extremely gloomy when he mentioned Alina as a reference. 

The Northern Demon Council Minister coldly uttered, "Hmph! She's probably that talented because that thief helped her! After all, she's his sister!" 

The demons were naturally aware of Alina's importance. Truth be told, they wanted nothing but to capture her and then do everything to draw Ace out. Even if there was a tiny chance of that happening, they were willing to take it!  I think you should take a look at

But for some reason, the humans were able to not only keep Alina but even convince the imperials to send their forces toward the Azure Wind Continent instead and help them protect her. 

This entire matter was out of every demon's comprehension, and the other races were not much different either. This entire thing was simply too strange. 

"What did you say?! You dare to profane our princess's name?!" The hunter from the silver ice clan was instantly enraged. 

Alina was the Silver Ice Clan's pride and joy, and everyone worshiped her and treated her like the future Ice Lord. She was supposed to be the one who would make the Silver Ice Clan the greatest of the elemental clans. 

But then everyone goes side-track when she snuck out and lands herself in a massive dead trap. At the same time, the other four elemental clans were gloating at the silver ice clan's misfortune. The silver ice was completely devastated and in utter disbelief that the Ice Lord or the Ice Queen were sitting still without doing anything to rescue their princess from the clutches of the humans. 

"Enough, both of you! This is not the time to throw insults at each other or fight among ourselves. I also think we should first report this uncanny development to our higher-ups and see what they have to say." Shadow Devil Duke coldly stated before he also left with their entourage. 

The devils were probably most anxious about this whole situation because they had invested a lot in this venture and even given their race-representative youths powerful and precious treasures so they would be able to snatch the spirit fire and even hide it from others. 

However, now, all those resources appeared to be going down the drain, and it was quite a hard truth to swallow, even for the strongest race like the devil race!

The demon minister knew it was not the time to start fighting, and he really had to report it to the imperils as well. 

"Let go!" 

He gave the hunters from the silver ice clan a murderous glance before leaving with his men. 

"Sigh… we are really going to suffer massive losses this time around. With everything that has been transpiring for a couple of previous years, I'm starting to think some sort of calamity is about to descend, and no one will be able to escape it." A wizened hunter with azure color hair sighed with trepidation. 

"Or we are just rubbing off from someone else bad luck! Hmph!" The middle-aged hunter with ruby-red hair sneered gloomily while looking at the silver ice clan before he left. 

The others also no longer linger. They simply didn't have the mood or patience to and headed towards their own camps. The hunter race was divided into two factions, the four elemental clans on one side while the silver ice clan on the other!

But they all have no idea that a pair of dark blue eyes were observing all this melodrama from high above in the sky!
