Noa's dark eyes turned sharp when she read the mission details, rewards, and punishment. Especially punishment. It was quite harsh, but the rewards were just as tempting.
She looked at Ace with complicated emotions. She was just thinking of how she should mend her relationship with him, but it seemed she didn't need to do anything.
Ace noticed Noa's complicated emotions and couldn't help but sigh slightly before saying, "Don't mind our previous interaction. I don't hold it against you, and we're associates now. Besides, don't you see the rules of thief house? They're also applied to me."
Ace was telling an absolutely… lie!
He was like an unshakable mountain in Thief House, and no one can go against him if they don't want to die. He also understood now why the system had reviled, he could give a mission and not keep it hidden.
