Everyone had come to the agreement that if the GodHands held the title of the most powerful organization in the world, then Ethan would be considered the most powerful individual in Lumina and for some reason, he had proven himself even more dangerous than the GodHand which was no small feat. Regardless, it was understandable why Ethan wouldn't be invited considering the relationship between the GodHand and Ethan was at a point of no return. The only way to resolve their differences was by spilling blood and naturally, none would wish to give in. Soon, Ms. Goldberg arrived in a convoy filled with the most luxurious cars money could buy.She stepped down from her car, wearing a beautiful gown, after a guard had opened the door for her. Not surprisingly, she came in the company of her granddaughter and heir to the Goldberg estate, Louisa Goldberg.Donning a beautiful green dinner gown, Louisa appearance drew the attention of many young bachelors who were interested in making conne

Ethan didn't wish to have anyone getting hurt for him which was why he opted to handle things himself. But with South being here, he had a feeling he wouldn't be able to tell him off.“Fine then. But we do things my way.”South managed a smile as he replied. “Sure.” With that sorted, South pulled out a transparent veil from his pocket and handed it to Ethan.“What is this?”“A relic. It renders one completely invisible to all eyes.”“And you are just handing it to me?”“It's going to make our task much easier.”Pursing his lips, Ethan decided to go along with it, after all, there was no need to worry.“Alright then, so let's move out.” With that, Ethan used the veil to cover himself while South activated his own.Like that, the duo left the party hall toward a certain destination.They rushed out of the party hall, utilizing their various attributes to ensure they reached the main house on time.On their way, Ethan realized that apart from cameras, there were also security guards w

The Third Finger regarded him coldly. “The great Emperor of Lumina. In truth, you are perhaps one of the few in this gathering that would have the right to speak if it were in the past but even then, you wouldn't speak so boldly. Do you think you are my equal in combat?”“I dare say I am, now speak clearly. Does the GodHand intend to renege on its desire to make allies by killing everyone here?”“It's not as simple as that.” the Third Finger replied causing several to gasp as they realized that the situation was worse than they thought.“Is that so?”“Indeed. You see, you all have two choices. The first choice is to abandon Ethan Jones and join us while the second choice is unequivocally death!”The last word was spoken loudly, enough for most to tremble due to the pressure that accompanied it.“So please.” The Third Finger intoned. “Make your choice before I lose my patience.”“You fools. Doing this would only make everyone despise you, including those who have been on the fence.” Th

Once he had taken down the Fingers, proving himself superior to all of them, he left the hall, leaving the Emperor and South to contend with the First Finger while he hurried to the underground vault to ensure that Poltergeist had finished her task.Those who tried to stop him were unceremoniously beaten back like children, revealing that Ethan had evolved in combat due to the few exchanges he had with the Emperor and several other powerful adversaries.His journey got him into the underground vault where he tackled the guardians that watched over it, even stopping one who tried to destroy the vault after realizing what Ethan was after.The vault held the GodHand secrets, including the tower that Ethan had seen initially.In truth, he didn't care much about the secrets but still thought it necessary to at least learn about what they had hidden away.But this was hardly the time for that as he reached out to Poltergeist.“How is it?”“It's incredibly complex, Ethan, I don't know if I'd

Three months quickly went by after the defeat and dismantling of the GodHand along with the restoration of Zero Republic.The Absolute Evil faction had succumbed to numerous defeats, ensuring that they wouldn't be able to cause any trouble.Lumina Empire was now undoubtedly the number one power in the world and instead of the Emperor, Ethan was considered as the top figure in the nation. In that period, Ethan returned to Metro City to spend time with his family and friends, indulging in some measure of peace after everything he'd experienced. It was during that time that he shared what he'd learned about his past and its connections to Rani as well as Leilani. He expected them to curse him, but it was quite the opposite as it helped to solidify their bond as siblings.It was a relief for him considering he had feared for the worst, worried that they would hate him for what his existence had done to their lives.In any case, apart from that, Ethan also gained some valuable informati
