Chapter 297 Cute Little Thief

Chapter 297: Cute Little Thief

Ryder entered the water and dove deep inside, trying to find the girl. He felt so relaxed as he entered the water. He didn’t feel the need to hold in his breath. It was as if he was in his home habitat where he didn’t need to do anything but have fun. He realized that he could breathe easily. Not only that, but he also felt like he was a little stronger in the water. He could also see clearly inside the water without having the need to close his eyes.

He looked around the pond and saw the thief sitting in the middle of the pond in a meditative position. The thief had his eyes closed as if he was meditating.

’Looks like this idiot didn’t think that I would be able to find him here,’ Ryder thought.

’Still, why is he meditating here? Could it be a technique to hold his breath for longer? That seems to be the case. This idiot is screwed,’ Ryder thought as he smiled.

He swam closer to the thief in the middle. As he swam closer to the thief, the thief felt the subtle vibration in the water.

He opened his deep blue eyes in confusion as he looked around, but his eyes opened wide as he saw Ryder.

The thief sat up as he started swimming away, but he didn’t know that Ryder was using the Ruler of Water. This place was like his home. There was no way the thief was going to swim faster than Ryder in this place.

The thief couldn’t even get close to the bank of the pond before Ryder caught up to him.

He caught the thief’s hand with his left hand and turned him back before catching the thief’s slender neck with his right hand.

Ryder tightened his grip on the thief’s neck as he watched his eyes open wide in pain. Ryder stopped soon, though, and relaxed his grip. He didn’t want to kill the thief. He just wanted to threaten the town that he could kill him if he wished.

Ryder held the thief’s neck in his hand as he swam towards the bank of the pond.

He stepped out of the pond with the thief’s neck still in his right hand.

"You make me run for quite some time, little thief. You do have some good stamina, I must say. You chose the wrong opponent this time, though. I’m not like the others. You can’t escape from me," Ryder replied as he glared at the thief.

He didn’t know why, but as he said this, he felt like he noticed a weird glint in the thief’s eyes.

"Where’s my wallet?" Ryder asked the thief, but without waiting for a response, he already started seeing.

The thief rolled his eyes and didn’t reply.

" I don’t think you expected me to catch you, so you probably didn’t hide my wallet anywhere Special. It should be in the normal place where everyone keeps their wallet. You should have back pockets too," Ryder muttered as he reached out his hand and started sucking the butt of the thief to find his wallet.

"Ummm, what are you doing, you idiot!"

While Ryder was confused by not finding a back pocket, he heard a yell.

He looked towards the thief’s face in confusion. It sounded like a girl’s voice.

His mouth opened in surprise as he frowned.

He took off the face mask of the thief to make sure, and again, he was shocked as he saw the face of the thief.

The thief had brunette hair that was tied to a bun. Her deep blue eyes stared at Ryder in anger.

Ryder was stunned briefly as his grip loosened and the girl got released.

As soon as the girl got released, she started running away.

She looked back once and saw Ryder not chasing after her.

She placed her hand inside her clothing near her chest and pulled a men’s wallet out.

She threw the wallet towards Ryder as she screamed.

"You’re crazy!"

The girl ran away while Ryder caught the wallet.

Ryder watched her run away as he sighed. The thief he thought to be a man turned out to be a woman. At Least she returned his wallet in the end.

Ryder watched the girl fun away. He didn’t take his eyes off of her. His gaze kept going down to her butt that he had given. Her clothes were wet and sucking closer, highlighting her figure even more now.

" Can I get your number? That job offer is still valid!" Ryder called out suddenly, but the girl didn’t reply. After some time, the girl disappeared from his view.

Ryder chuckled as he turned back. He walked to an empty place, took his wet clothes off, and got dressed in a Tuxedo again.

He roughly arranged his wet her before he started walking towards the mansion where he had promised to meet Shu. The estate was very big in size, so Ryder had no trouble in finding it.

He wanted to see the Lavender Town, but because of catching the thief, he wasn’t able to finish his trip of Lavender Town, and now he didn’t have enough time. He needed to go back in time.

After around twenty minutes, Ryder reached the entrance of the Silva Mansion.

He could see Ryder waiting for him there already.

"What happened? Why did you leave so suddenly?" She asked Ryder.

"Nothing, I was chasing after a cute little thief," Ryder muttered as he smiled.

"Cute little thief?" Shu muttered as he noticed the hidden meaning in Ryder’s words. There was no way that Ryder would call a male as cute. That must mean he was chasing after a cute girl.

"Did you catch that cute little thief?" Shu asked with an amused smile on his face.

"I did, and I didn’t," Ryder replied vaguely.

"Let’s get inside your now," he told Shu.

"Yeah, it’s about time," Shu said smilingly.

"You guys wait at the entrance. We should be out soon," Shu told his guards before he walked into the red carpet that led to the main entrance of the Mansion.

He had to once again show the invitation and his membership card before he and Ryder were allowed to enter inside.

After some time, Ryder and Shu finally entered the mansion. They were escorted to the Main Hall, where tables were arranged for everyone.

The Maxwell Family had a separate table arranged for them too. Shu and Ryder sat at that table as they waited for the prominent guests to arrive.
