“Though no demands have been made, the guests are trapped in the building, giving them little opportunity to escape.”“So far, law enforcement has not shown up at the scene, and there doesn't seem to be any sign that they are on their way. With little idea on how things are going to proceed, we can only hope that Metro City survives this disaster.”Meanwhile, on the ground, the dignitaries and men of substance who were forced to stay inside began to complain."How long do we have to wait here?... What if those terrorists get tired of waiting and attack us?... Some are still even in the building right now!""How did these bastards infiltrate our city?""This is getting out of hand. We need to find our way out of here before the terrorists get restless.""Someone save us!... I don't want to die." It was clear that everyone was tense, with most worried about how they would survive the terror attack.Even the security forces deployed by Aaron were worried but not for the same reason the

"What the hell is happening?""I didn't see Ethan Jones move so why is that guy falling like a fool?""There has to be something going on that we don't know."As viewers tried to figure out what was happening, Hadrian got back to his feet, his breathing uneven as he finally realized that he wasn't falling because he was clumsy.That was hardly the case, after all, who was he?... He was the seventh prince of the Royal family of the Lumina Empire who served the First Man.Servitude to the First Man gave one superhuman capabilities, allowing them to be the best version of themselves.So how could he be clumsy?... But if he wasn't clumsy, that meant that he was falling for a completely different and humiliating reason. The truth was that Ethan was just hitting him too fast for him to catch.How was that possible?... Even if he was strong, that was just too much of a difference, right?Even his father could not hit him without him noticing yet Ethan had managed to accomplish such a feat.

The imperial capital of Lumina turned into a hive of activity as the news of Prince Hadrian's actions soon reached the ears of the nobles.To think that not only had the seventh prince attacked without the explicit permission of the imperial courtyard, but he had also lost.It was unthinkable and also served to shame the Imperial family for failing to raise a good prince.Naturally, this was a slap to the Imperial family's face but they could nothing but endure the insults as the court was indeed right.Hadrian's actions wouldn't be so bad if he had won but not only had he not won, he ended up being captured by a nameless civilian.This infuriated them even further and those in the Imperial family called for the deployment of the Army to deal with the peasant that dared to cause them such humiliation.How dare he make a fool out of them and even dare to capture Prince Hadrian, keeping him under house arrest?... Did he not even give the imperial family face enough to not treat the seve

[Curse: Advent of Calamity][Description: Those that are cursed with this terrifying curse would experience 7 calamities, with the seventh leading to their death. The preceding six would ensure that nothing is left behind when they die, destroying their belongings, family, friends, and reputation until the accursed one is completely alone]Ethan didn't even know how to react upon seeing this as he had no clue how or when he'd been cursed.Before he could question the system, the lady who had run into his car cried out.“Everyone, look at the so-called hero of Metro City. Instead of helping me, he is lost in his thoughts.”The others quickly began to murmur.“Hmmph, he's probably trying to figure out a way to escape this.”“I thought he was a good person. I can't believe he turned out to be so irresponsible.”“This is what happens when evil people get a bit of fame. They no longer need to hold themselves back.”“We should get him canceled!”Just as the crowd began to get heated with so

"Hmmph, why are you wasting time, Mr. Jones?... You plan to pay yeah?... Fine then, go ahead and do so, I'd like to see you pay the arrears owed by your company." Louis remarked disdainfully, clearly looking forward to seeing Ethan embarrass himself.However, Ethan wasn't offended and instead replied. "A moment."He immediately transferred the money using the system while acting like he was using his phone and once it was tagged successful, he glanced at Louis. "It's successful, you can check.""... This… are you serious?" Louis was left stunned at Ethan's words."Do I look like I'm joking?""... You sent it?... No, that's impossible." Louis couldn't accept Ethan's words and so threatened him. "You better not be lying. Lying to a public officer like me can land you in jail instantly so you'd heat take back those lies you just said.""If you doubt it so much, you can always call to confirm.""..." Louis realized Ethan wasn't going to change his mind and so grew even more furious as he
