Eternal Thief



With great interest, Ace opened the book called The History of All the Apostles (Union Leaders) of the Sun and Moon.

However, he was startled when he found an empty first page, and when he turned it, the other pages were also empty. He skimped through the book like this, and it was completely blank. 

"Why is this book empty?" He couldn't help but ask at this moment with a frown. 

This book should be far more informative than that gibberish, but it turned out it was empty, which made Ace think that this entire thing was nothing but fishy. 

"This book was reevaluated and placed in the Secret Floor of the Core Sun Domain Library." The voice impassively replied. 

'So why the hell did you leave this empty book here with a title?' He wanted to retort like this, but he held back as he put the book back. 

Since it was still present in the union library, he would get his hand on it eventually, so there's no need to press the matter any further. He also needed to do here before he could 'cultivate' for three months. 

"Is there any book on the Secret Realm that is about to open in three months?" He asked directly about the purpose of coming here. 

Since the Union Leader gave revealed the Secret Realm, it was only natural that White would be curious about it. So, he didn't worry about anything while openly seeking information. 

"Of course, there is a book on the Sun Secret Realm on the right shelf, third row, book number three from the right." The voice replied. 

Ace's eyes brightened as he quickly approached the given location and found a thin golden cover book with the title, The Sun Secret Realm of Sun God.

On its first page was written…

'A realm made by God?' Ace was intrigued as he now knew the Union believed in two gods, the Sun God and Moon God, like the Demons believed and worshiped Baphomet.

But there were no statues or pictures of them because, for them, the Sun and Moon in the sky were their Gods' idols which they could worship anytime. 

However, the thing was, Ace had yet to see anyone praying to the Sun or Moon god, and in all the memories he had annexed till now, no one seemed to know about the Union Gods.

Furthermore, he found the truth about Gods hidden in this secret library, which should be known to everyone in the union since it was in their hierarchy. 

As someone who used 'God' as a selling pitch for his thief house, he knew how easy it was to sway people by the name of God. 

That's why he doubted the information in that book or something entirely different was going on.

Anyhow, he was interested in the Sun Secret Realm, not how it was made or by whom. His only objective was to infiltrate it and then destroy it. He was founded on the former first before worrying about the latter, so he turned the page. 

'The Sun God and Moon God created two Secret Realms as the founding pillars of the Sun and Moon Sword Union. The Sun Secret Realm and the Moon's Secret Realm.

'Each secret realm represents two enteral gifts of the founding Gods. They showed the sliver of holy splendor and mercy to their children…' 

At this point, Ace's guess was correct about two secret realms being in the two mountains, and the only thing remaining was their locations in the two mountains. So, he continues to read. 

'The Sun Secret Realm was created in the heart of the Sun Mountain. It opened every hundred years for 100 days for Children of the Sun and Moon. 

'Although the Sun Secret Realm opened for the children of the Sun and Moon, and it is divided into three layers, Upper, Middle, and Lower. Each layer represents the different levels of trials placed by the Sun God!

'Even though these trials are filled with hardship, but as long as the Children of the Sun and Moon pass these trials, the Sun God will bestow them with his grace and rewards…' 

Ace frowned, 'The Children mean should be the age and cultivation restriction placed on the secret realm. But these trials seemed quite cumbersome. Furthermore, if I'm not wrong, then the Children of the Sun and Moon mean there are no restrictions on who can enter as long as they meet the requirement.

'Or it should be written the Children of Sun, not the Moon as well. It's probably placed to hide the loophole or not to inflict tension between different races. Or if they called just one race the Children of Sun, then they would be the rulers of the Union, not just anyone. 

'But the racial factor still exists in the union. I'm pretty sure this secret record is also unknown to any below the High Union Elder Rank figures, but they also didn't reveal the content to their descendants or the races. 

'Well, my problem is these three layers and trials mentioned in this book. If I need to destroy that realm, I have to find the core, and I don't think it was left vulnerable, or I would find it in a weakened state like the one I found in the Regal Fiend Tower space.' 

The more he thought about this point, the more he felt it was going to be a very dangerous venture, and he had to complete it within hundred days limit before the secret realm time limit was up. 

Although he didn't know if he could overstay by some other means, he had to place the limit of hundred days just in case he couldn't. 

Ace then turned the page and continued to read, and at the end of page four, his eyes suddenly widened when he read a certain line…

'The Sun Secret Realm is the Blessing to the Chosen One who controlled the Yin Yang bestowed by the Sun and Moon. Because the Chosen One is supreme under Sun and Moon.' 

Ace couldn't help but think, 'The Chosen One who controlled the Yin Yang? Didn't I hear Yin Yang's name from the Union Leader as well? The Yin Yang Mortal Sword Manual is scattered throughout the two domains. Could this Yin Yang be referred to that cultivation technique?' 

Ace felt it was not impossible, especially if the Chosen One was the successor of the Union's true inheritance, then this thing would perfectly fit the puzzle, and his heart raced. 

'I need to tweak my plan. If there's even a chance that this Chosen One thing was as I imagine it to be, then I can't overlook it…' He thought with a devious glint in his eyes. 

At this moment, his focus was broken when a deep voice rang close to his ears. It was the same voice he's been talking to on the secret floor. 

"Today, the Union Leader has accepted a Disciple named White!

"Lord White is also anointed as the Junior Union Leader by the Union Leader!

"This made Lord White the direct successor to the Union Leader position and the future Union Leader of the Sun and Moon Union!

"To celebrate this holy occasion, the Union Leader has decided to bestow generous gifts on every Union Member.

"Junior Union Leader White's portrait has been issued in every union token; please treat him with the same respect as you will treat the Union Leader!"

Ace almost felt as if he heard it wrong as he thought with a pitch-black expression, 'My portrait spreading to everyone… this has to be a fucking joke!'
