Chapter 1302 Newcomer
Ace was sitting behind the counter in the Feline Alchemy Shop, accompanied by the cute and lively Leah.
At this moment, Ace's eyes shone with a mysterious light as he muttered, "Evil Slaying Division, huh?"
Leah, who was telling him about her spirit coin collection, finally looked at him with a pout as she noticed he wasn't paying attention to her, "What evil, Badass Ace?"
Ace quickly snapped out of his thought process and looked at the little girl before he pulled a charming smile, "Nothing, I was just mumbling to myself. Where's your sister?"
It's been over a week since he was hired' as a shopkeeper in the Feline Alchemy Shop. He had been spending his days in forging as he finally completed the 99 heavenly weapons, enough for his first Universal Black Ascension Physique's refinement. Strangely, Zaria didn't disturb him until he came out of his own accord today, and neither did Leah. But he was sure that Zaria was monitoring him.
Today was his first day as a shopkeeper, and Leah would supervise him, which made the little girl extremely happy. But Zaria was instantly gone after giving him stern instructions, which were more of a threat so that he wouldn't run away.
But Ace wasn't paying any attention to Leah since he was fully focused on what was happening to his Avatar back at the PHW King Sect, and now that his avatar seemed to have officially joined the sect, he was both relieved and apprehensive since he was very suspicious of the PHW King Sect.
Nonetheless, Ace can always retreat if things go awry, so he isn't overly worried. In fact, this was just the start of his plan of robbing the wealthiest sect of the Mortal Ascension Heaven!
Leah looked at Ace suspiciously, but since she had no idea what was going on, she quickly dropped the topic and said, "Big sis, only leave when she collects protection money for Leah!" Her eyes instantly brighten when she talks about money.
At this point, Ace had already guessed that Leah loved spirit coins more than anything else, and Zaria seemed to give all the coins to her. But he still felt strange whenever he heard 'protection money!
Leah instantly became disappointed, but she still called 'Big Sis' cheerfully since Zaria was more important to her than coin collection.
However, Ace noticed Zaria's expression was grim and wondered who could've provoked his madwoman.
Seeing Leah's lively smile and hearing her call, Zaria quickly pulled a gentle smile as she nodded, "How's my little Leah doing? Come tell your big sis if our new shopkeeper bullies you; I'll seek justice for you!"
Ace was instantly alarmed and cursed inwardly for her being so unreasonable. He clearly didn't bully anyone, especially not a little girl like Leah. In fact, he was the one being bullied.
Leah giggled as she looked over Ace and said, "Badass Ace didn't bully me. He was telling me how evil the outside world is!"
Zaria raised her phoenix-like eyebrow and curiously asked, "Oh, tell me what he told you?"
Leah quickly told her about spending money without hiding anything in an extremely solemn manner. A strange glint flashed past Zaria's eyes as she looked at Ace meaningfully, making him somewhat uneasy.
Zaria nodded and added, "He's right, you know. If you go outside, you need to spend your coins, which means they will decrease. But don't worry, as long as you're with your big sis, no one will take your coins. Those sons of bitches have to meet my claws if they dare to ask for your coins!" She instantly raised her chin heroically.
Leah instantly became happy as her eyes shone with adoration, while Ace was speechless and decided not to comment at all.
But at this moment, an aged voice filled with helplessness rang, "You're teaching your sister weird things again, huh?"
Ace was startled while Zaria's eyes narrowed dangerously and filled with hostility when she heard that voice, and the next moment, a tall, burly man appeared right in the middle of the shop; he appeared right out of thin air.
On the other hand, Leah instantly hollered when she saw the man, "It's the Stinky Old Pervert!"
