Eternal Thief - Chapter 1161: A Thief without Patience…

Wallace’s eyes flashed a cold glint when he heard George’s overbearing comment before he pulled an icy cold smile and asked, “Are you new here, dear customer?”

Although his voice was still warm, the people watching could tell that he was angry. Some even coldly sneered as they looked towards George’s and gloated.

Some even remembered his appearance and decided to secretly ‘teach’ the guy a lesson to please Wallace.

“Wallace, don’t create a scene.

He’s about to leave, and I don’t need your help.” The woman, who Wallace called ‘Junior Sister,’ coldly retorted before George could reply.

Although she was also annoyed by George’s over-the-top attitude, she had to admit that this guy was fearless. From their conversation, she knew he was new in this place and didn’t know who he was messing with.

Nonetheless, she didn’t want to create a scene unless she wanted to be punished for it for no reason.

“Well, indeed, I’ve arrived in the city not long ago.

Do you have a problem with that? Are you going to stop me from leaving because you can’t ‘talk’?” George suddenly scoffed as he looked directly into Wallace’s narrowed eyes.

Wallace’s smile suddenly grew even colder, and his eyes seemed almost closed.

Before he stepped aside, he said, “Please, dear customer, you are free to leave, and I apologize if I offended you. The doors of the Weapon Smith Association are always open for you if you ever decide to come back.

”

Wallace then didn’t pay the ignorant guy any attention and looked towards the woman behind him and smilingly said, “I was here to notify you that your ‘shift’ is over, Junior Sister. Follow me.

”

Without waiting for the woman’s reply, he turned around and started walking towards the upper floor, and no one dared stand in his way.

“You should know when to take a step back.”

The woman faintly said that only George could hear and shook her head ruefully before she followed Wallace under everyone’s curious gazes.

After all, they were quite curious about whom this woman was that made Wallace personally come here, and some of them had some pretty good ideas about her identity.

They sighed regretfully when they thought how they had missed a huge opportunity.

On the other hand, George simply smiled without any fear and left, and some people, at this moment, quickly left as well.

“Why didn’t you let me burn that prick?” Cyrus suddenly questioned with a dissatisfied voice as Ace exited the Weapon Smith Association.

“Language.”

Ace chided smilingly before he placated the little fellow by rubbing his head, “He’s probably in the late stages of Ascensions Solider (7-Star~9-Star), and he clearly has a backing, not to mention he was on his own turf.

Furthermore, do you think I would be so rash to offend him? Do you think I like to make enemies like yourself?”

“Then why?” Cyrus asked with clear confusion.

“It’s because he has massive influence, and people like him had many others who do their bidding just so to earn his favor.

But if they failed, then he would send his own people if he had a vain personality and arrogant ego.

“That’s why I target him because he’s such a person, and now, he’ll be our treasure farm who would personally deliver free treasures to us without even doing anything.

All we need to do is to select a location where we can harvest those treasures.

And don’t forget that he has someone else above him; once we harvest this farm, a much richer and bigger one will take his place.

“However, this strategy only worked on people who are drunk on power and status and thought themselves the center of the world.”

Ace chuckled as he recounts his personal experience with people like Wallace.

Furthermore, he was paying attention to the fate map, which now showed multiple red fate points following behind him.

One had to know that before meeting with Wallace, there weren’t any red fate points at all.

However, when Wallace appeared before him and questioned him for the time, his fate points suddenly changed into a red one, which made Ace somewhat baffled since he didn’t even know the guy, yet he showed malicious intentions for no reason.

Although he didn’t want to tangle with the Artifact Inferno Guardian Sect’s people yet, it was another story if their people targeted him for no reason.

That’s why he decided to show an overbearing attitude.

After all, this won’t change the fact that Wallace already had vile intentions towards him.

So, why not directly offend him and take full advantage of the situation? After all, he was going to start harvesting the TP eventually, and Wallace just had to go ahead and volunteer himself.

“OH!” Cyrus’s eyes shone with admiration when he finally understood why Ace did what he did, although it was still unclear which part he understood, “H-how do we find people with lots of delicious food? Cyrus also wants to farm!”

Ace smiled wryly, “You need to experience to spot such people, and even then, it’s not always spot on.

Sometimes, people do what they do for other reasons, as they hide behind the mask of curtly.

Take me for example.

I’m not arrogant or someone who seeks trouble without any cause, but I still pretend to be like one.

And now, that guy will suffer under my hands because he wasn’t able to see through me.

“The same goes for us.

If we judge someone wrongly, we’ll seek our own doom, and there will be no one to blame but ourselves.

You have already encountered the mountain tyrant, who was doing the same thing.

We should always keep our distance from people like them and quickly retreat while we still have the chance.

“Lastly, always take targets who can handle them; there is no need to be greedy from the start.

I’ve suffered enough to know patience is the key to wealth, and a Thief without patience is nothing but a freebooter!”

Ace smiled thievishly as he found himself in an alley with a dead end.

When he turned around, no one was there, so he said coldly, “Well, gentlemen, why don’t you come out and tell me why you are following me? Let’s chat!”
