Ace moved to take the scepter and looked at the dark orb imbued within the skull's mouth, and the moment he came in contact with it, he could feel the dark orb submission to him.
Satisfied, Ace stowed the scepter away since the dark orb was the last orb he had to absorb before absorbing the other seven orbs.
Then he looked at the corpse of the devil ancestor, and a thought surfaced in his mind before a thievish smile appeared, and he quickly stowed the corpse before leaving the space.
Just like that, the Devil Ancestor Edward vanished without anyone realizing it.
Ace exited the hidden space at this moment, and he was looking through Edward's space ring, his first ever grade-9 treasure he stole from someone else.
Furthermore, this treasure was a living space treasure, no less. Since Edward was dead, the space ring was ownerless, and Ace quickly claimed it.
