Reward Pool Mission (1)

Without giving Thomas a chance to react, he threw a black storage ring, and Thomas was utterly mortified as he caught it and even wanted to give it back, but when he thought about Milly's death, he hesitated. 

He knew he needed this, or he might never be able to avenge her, and despite his pride or unwillingness, he clutched the storage ring, and thick vines suddenly popped out on his temple. 

"I-I... just know that this wretched life is yours!" Thomas knew the word of gratitude was no longer enough to repay Ace for what he had done for him. So, this was the final thing he could give, and he will give it as long as Ace wanted it!

Ace didn't say anything. He knew there was no need to. The things he gave Thomas were something that not even the top three races have. But for him, they were useless, or he simply had too many of them at this moment, so he really didn't feel any reluctance to give them to Thomas.
