Ace didn't nip the bud because he knew this woman would be more motivated to work this way and let her think she could become the leader in the future. He'll let her feel the disparity with his actions and coy subdue her!
Freya's eyes shimmered with a hint of ecstasy. She really wanted to control this Thief House. It was far more appealing to her than anything in this world.
"So, will you give me a choice in the thief genre, or you'll be a petty person and try to repress me?" she asked gaily.
Her fear completely vanished because she thought Ace also can't go against the house rules. Although he could control the missions, she knew he won't be willing to discard her at this moment after doing all this.
Furthermore, she wanted to see the shop eagerly after Ace explain the techniques from the 'goddess' will appear there, and she can also increase her bloodline potential.
