Eternal Thief

"A Demon King?" the veil beauty's ocean blue eyes flash with momentarily shocked before shimmering with an intriguing glint.

"Yes, Your Highness, that's why I had no choice but to disturb you. Please forgive me!" Aliya nodded her head in relief. 

"First, tell me about this person which caused a Demon King to force using our secret network?" the veiled beauty question with great interest. 

Aliya knew her mistress take an interest in his matter from her tone, or she knew her mistress would've not asked a second question. 

She quickly replied, "Your Highness, not only the Demon King, or A Demon requested to find this person's identity but many others of our silver, bronze and even common members made this same request. I just report the most important ones!" 

"Is that so? It's been quite a long since we got this kind of unanimous request, and even a Demon King is involved. Tell me about it." Her ocean-blue eyes flash with great scrutiny.

"Your Highness, from our sources we found out that this person is a… thief who called itself Sky Stealer. Yesterday, this thief theft over a hundred high-level shops in Iron Demon City's market without triggering the alarms or any traps in succession. 

"Furthermore, he even found and looted all the Hidden Treasuries in those shops and somehow completely uproot their grade locks. The unique thing about this thief is every shop that was theft the thief left an imprint of a vivid Dark Owl. 

"In some shops, he left his name engraved in that Dark Owl imprint. The most astonishing thing about this owl imprint is… it can't be destroyed or scratched no matter who attacks it or how powerful the attack became. Some infuriated owners even destroyed their entire shops in fury, and only then did that Dark Owl imprint vanish!"

Aliya quickly reported whatever they collect to this veiled beauty, leaving nothing behind. 

The veiled beauty's ocean blue eyes narrowed into two tiny slits when she heard this unbelievable report. Even she found it absurd, but she also knew Aliya won't dare to lie to her face. 

She asked with uncertainty, "You say, Iron Demon City?"

"Yes, Your Highness, Iron Demon City of Ocean Demon Dukedom!" Aliya nodded in affirmation. 

"If I remembered correctly, then I ordered to stop our transitions in Iron Demon City over a year ago, right?" She questioned. 

"Yes, Your Highness ordered us to retreat from that area because our exchange spot was compromised." Aliya nodded. 

This veiled demoness was non-other the founder and leader of 'Spica Syndicate', All-Knowing Parrot! 

All-Knowing Parrot's beautiful eyes shimmer with scrutiny, "Tell me everything that happened to the Iron Demon City after we stop our deals there!" 

Aliya didn't delay and quickly told All-Knowing Parrot about Iron Demon City's events like Mad Thief and so on. 

Spica Syndicate was too deeply rooted in Almighty Demon Empire because of its backers and even someone like demon kings was on the list of these syndicate backers, which made this syndicate the biggest dark organization of Mighty Demon Continent, at least outside the Royal Zone. 

As for its founder, the All-Knowing Parrot, no one knows its real identity, heck, they didn't even know its gender, and it was the biggest mystery. For the common populous All-Knowing Parrot was a criminal who do heinous crimes. 

But for bigwigs, the All-Knowing Parrot was a symbol of information. As long as they paid the right price, they can buy any kind of information or even hire the Spica Syndicate to find the information. 

As for other dark deals that this syndicate does, many other dark organizations can do the same, but no one can collect or find information like Spica Syndicate all because of one single person, the All-Knowing Parrot! 

The All-Knowing Parrot had a reputation of never failing to find information about the target, and that's what made it scary. No one dare to offend this mysterious entity, afraid that it would release all their secrets to the public, and they'll have to suffer the unimaginable consequences. 

All-Knowing Parrot's eyes shone with understanding after hearing Aliya's report. She couldn't help but marvel about Iron Demon City's fate. First, the Mad Thief made the Iron Demon City tremble in fear, and now Sky Stealer completely abolished it. It was like a den of thieves!

"You say the same night thieveries happened, there was a big fight between a Nāga and a mysterious expert who killed it?" All-Knowing Parrot questioned. 

"Yes, according to our sources there were two Nāgas, one of them died causing tremendous commotion while the other one mingled dead body was found in a random alley." 

All-Knowing Parrot's eyes suddenly show a fierce glint before it was completely melted away in calmness, "Which Demon King gave the commission for this Sky Stealer?" 

Aliya became confused about why her mistress wanted to know such details, but still answered truthfully, "It's the Mist Demon King!" 

All-Knowing Parrot's eyes lit with a wise glint that was completely hidden under her aloof expression, "Since a War Challenge is about to start in Iron Demon City, that Sky Stealer will soon make its escape tell our men to monitor the Iron Demon City surrounding and sent a hundred Silver Parrots to monitor the Iron Demon City from now on. If anything new came out about this Sky Stealer, inform me post-hastily. You're dismissed now!" 

Aliya bowed in affirmation before leaving the hall and All-Knowing Parrot alone. 

After Aliya leave and the door was closed, the All-Knowing Parrot take off her veil and reviled her enthralling face. She looked at the bright moon from the window and murmured with a hint of excitement, 

"Nāga Race is subordinary race under the Dark Mist Demon Tribe. Two Nāgas were killed in the Dark Blade Demon Tribe's Territory, far away from their judicial, and on the same night of the theft. 

"The chances of them being rough were almost zero since very servitude race had to brand with a slave seal on their birth, so they can't betray their masters or demon race. Those demons Kings presume I don't know this, heh, laughable!

"So, those two Nāgas were probably there for something, but killed instead by some mysterious expert, and the very next day, a new godly thief emerged. Now the Mist Demon King also wanted to know the identity of a mere thief. 

"Either this thief offended the Mist Demon King, which I highly doubt since Mist Demon King just act now, so the only possibility is this thief has something of Mist Demon King or something he wanted! 

"Those Nāgas probably encountered this thief and then robbed by him! If this is true, then this Sky Stealer is one of a kind character. Even I wanted to meet him now." 

All-Knowing Parrot's icy blue lips rose in a mesmerizing smile that can bewitch any man or demon alike, but alas no one was there to witness it. 

"Let's see how long can you remain hidden from me. Don't disappoint me, Sky Stealer, make this quest interesting!"

At night, Iron Demon City,

The once peaceful iron demon city was now thrown into chaos after the news of the Noble Tribe Title War was made public. 

All those demons unrelated to Iron Demon Tribe collected their belongings and abandon their properties and started to flee from the Iron Demon City without glancing back. 

Nobody stopped them or more accurately no one can stop them since it was a rule written in Noble Tribe Title War Challenge Rule, 'every challenged tribe had to face the challenger tribe alone with no external help!' and that's why Iron Demon Tribe was helpless despite being fuming in anger.

No one can help them and no one will! 

Some Iron Demon Tribe's demons also try to flee the city in the shade of night, but alas, they were instantly killed by a mysterious marital sense the moment they stepped outside the city or even try to leap the city wall. 

This was truly a hopeless situation for Iron Demon Tribe. Not even children were spared from this cruel fate, and no one seemed to empathize with them.

Every demon knows all these large tribes had gone through the baptism of blood to win their prominent positions. They weren't innocent! 

At this moment, a demon was desperately moving toward the city gate, clearly wanting to flee as soon as possible. But he was suddenly intercepted by another tall demon. 

"YOU… get out of the way!" He barked with a hint of urgency. 

"Hehe, brother calm down please, don't get me wrong, I just wanted to know why everyone is fleeing the city? Does something happen? I'll make it you're worthwhile!" the other demon asked as he threw a peak-level Qi stone toward the other demon. 

The demon with great urgency was startled and caught the peak Qi stone and asked with uncertainty, "You don't know about this kind of commotion?" 

"Why would I ask you if I know? I was sleeping all day long." The other demon rolled his eyes. 

"Y-you were s-sleeping?" the other demon's voice was filled with disbelief. 'How could someone sleep through this kind of uproar?!'
