Burglar System: Stealing Ancient Dragon God Bloodline from the Very Start - Chapter 25
The dark red light still shone in the room, emitting an evil aura. It was as if a demon king had escaped from hell, which could make one shudder in fear.
However, the power that targeted the soul wasn’t able to get close to William before it was dispersed by the Ancient Dragon God Bloodline in his body.
William’s bloodline power was like a blazing sun, and anything that got close would be flattened.
William glanced at the terrifying eyeballs floating in the air calmly. He just lit a candle with a calm expression and instantly lit up the living room.
The living room was not big, and the decoration was simple. The narrow living room had long wooden tables and chairs. There was also a narrow corridor leading to the only bedroom.
The dark red light emitted by the eyeball also dimmed a lot after the room was bright.
However, those eyeballs was much larger than a human eyeball, and they were even larger than any other animal. There was a vertical line in the middle of the eyeballs, and beside them were strange and twisted lines. Their terrifying appearance was enough to scare people into fainting.

However, William didn’t pay much attention to it because that terrifying eyeballs were a kind of Endowed Supernatural Ability, and William knew its owner.
“Devil’s Eye, where’s your owner?”
William sat on the rattan chair that he made himself and asked the eyeballs that was still floating in the air and staring at him.
The full name of the devil’s eyes was [ Devil’s Eye of Hell ], a B-Class Mysterious Category Endowed Supernatural Ability. Its ability was special, which exude a terrifying pressure that could scare off the courage of others, crush the souls of others, and make one lose the will to resist.
However, it was also somewhat useless because it could only scare off monsters and people whose strength was lower than its master’s. The [ Devil’s Eye of Hell ] would be useless if their opponent’s strength were higher than its master’s. It would not be able to fight or even resist.
It was an auxiliary ability in the Special Category.
However, there were only a few of them in the entire Fort Vienna because they were rare. Therefore, the value of such things increases along with their rarity. So, its master received special treatment from Earl Vienna, with exemption from the advanced examination, and directly place in the list of focused training targets.
Moreover, the [ Devil’s Eye of Hell ] also had thoughts. It looked in the direction of the bedroom after hearing William’s words.
William looked in the direction of where the Devil’s eyes were looking and saw a young girl wearing a black dress walking out slowly.
The young girl had long hair that reached the back of her waist. Her black dress accentuated her nice figure. She wore light makeup on her face, but it seemed that she had not slept well for a long time. The young girl’s makeup could not cover the dark circles under her eyes, and she did not look very energetic.
However, the dark circles under her eyes could not cover the young girl’s beautiful appearance. Her beautiful face and her melancholic temperament could make one feel tender love for her at a glance.
“Didn’t sleep well again?”
William pointed at the girl’s dark circles under her eyes and asked.
The girl shook her head and said in a flat tone, “I will see an endless sea of blood and bones when I close my eyes. There are also skeletons with long swords chasing after me. I can’t sleep.”
William frowned and asked, “Do you still have the spices I gave you?”
The girl in front of him was Vilya. She was a good friend who grew up in the orphanage with William. She had been having nightmares since she was young, and they were all the same nightmares.
William inherited the memories of two lifetimes at that time, so he was more mature than the other children. Moreover, he would often sneak out to get some delicious food. He had always been the child leader in the orphanage, so he knew that Vilya often had nightmares. Moreover, the adults in the orphanage did not take it seriously. William then got some herbs and made them into a sleeping spice to help Vilya reduce the nightmares.
The relationship between the two became better and better, and William also told her many stories, which gradually helped Vilya regain her confidence.
Later, the cute little Vilya was adopted by a rich family and left the orphanage.
William still remembered that when Vilya left, she cried and asked if they could still play together.
William comforted her with a yes, but he also knew that it was difficult for the adopted children to come back.
He did not expect the little girl to come back the next day. She said that her new mother treated her well and allowed her to come back often to play.
Later on, Vilya, who was one year older than William, awakened her Endowed Supernatural Ability last year. She became an extremely special B-Class Mysterious Category [ Devil’s Eye of Hells ] and was even more valued. She was granted a visit from Earl Vienna.
However, Vilya’s nightmares never stopped. Only William’s spices could relieve her somewhat. She could sleep peacefully for an hour or two occasionally.
William entered the academy to study and rented a house for himself after leaving the orphanage. Vilya often came from the East District to ask him for spices and even knew where his house keys were.
Once, Vilya came over to ask for some spices when William was sleeping. But she didn’t want to disturb William’s sleep, so she sat in the living room for a night.
Since then, William made a bunch of spices and put them in the closet in the bedroom. He told her so that she could take them.
However, it took a long time for her to leave this time. Could it be that she had used up all the spices?
“There are still more spices.” Vilya took the incense bag from her waist and threw it to William. “It’s just that the effect isn’t good anymore.”
William frowned. Vilya’s nightmare only needed a few herbs to help her sleep when she was in the orphanage. Then, adding some fragrance could make her sleep peacefully for a night.
Later on, there were more and more herbs were used. Now, almost all of them were herbs to help her fall asleep. There was only a tiny amount of fragrance added. He did not expect that it could not suppress the nightmare anymore.
In fact, William had long suspected that how a nightmare could last for more than 20 years? He had long suspected that this nightmare was caused by something. He even suspected that it was the [ Devil’s Eye of Hell ].
Although the [ Devil’s Eye of Hell ] was evil, it was still loyal to its master.
William’s suspicions changed as he understood more and more about this world. The nightmare might have been because of some curse and not the Endowed Supernatural Ability. It might have been from someone else, or it might be from a monster. It might be even from a demon that he had read about in books but had never seen before.
Suddenly, an idea appeared in his mind.
“Vilya!”William stood up and walked towards her. “Give me your hand.”
Vilya looked at William, who suddenly approached her with a strange look in her eyes. She asked, “What are you doing?”
“Why are you asking so many questions? It’s not like we haven’t held hands before!” William said in dissatisfaction and directly reached out to hold Vilya’s hand.
“That was when we were in the orphanage!” Vilya said stubbornly, but she did not pull her hand back and allowed William to hold it.
William ignored her stubbornness and shouted in his heart, “System!”
There was no response in his heart. He felt the softness of his hand and pursed his lips, saying, “Vilya, what is the name of your Endowed Supernatural Ability?”
Vilya was stunned. “The Devil’s Eye of Hell. Haven’t you already know that?”
“Ding…”
A cold mechanical voice sounded in his mind.
