“Haha, of course, of course, why would anything be wrong?” Ronald inquired, trying his hardest to play off the entire situation though no one was buying it.

“Are you sure about that?” Ethan pressed, quite amused seeing the old fool wet himself trying to escape Louisa's potential wrath.

“Of course!... Isn't that right, Gerald, everything is okay, right?”

Gerald the guard leader gulped nervously as he replied. “I mean, it was just a little scuffle so there's nothing wrong.”

“Yet it seemed like you were about to apprehend him.” Louisa intoned, causing Gerald to feel even more nervous as his hands turned clammy with sweat.

“Apprehend him?... That's not at all what was happening, Young miss, don't misunderstand.”

“I think I understand quite clearly, officer. I will be having a word with your head of security.”

“There's no need to go that far, ma'am, honestly,” Gerald remarked as he knew that with one word from Louisa, he would not only lose his job, but he'd never be able to get it back a

    Just as Ronald was about to ridicule Ethan more, he realized he still was on a call prompting him to return to it.“Yes, what else do you want to tell me?”“I forgot to let you know, the person that bought all your assets is a businessman calling himself Ghost. He is the same one who purchased Savour, Horizon, and a host of other companies while clearing their debts. So you can be assured that your company is in good hands.”Ronald was just about to curse out the lawyer only to pause as he recalled something. Back in the cafeteria, Louisa had referred to Ethan as Ghost and he hadn't refuted her words.Did that mean?... No, it made no sense.Ronald glanced at Ethan, his lips trembling as he couldn't fathom what he had just thought.Ethan flashed a smile. “I'm guessing you are speaking with your lawyer. Say hi to him for me.” “Is that Mr. Ghost I heard in the background?... Hand him the phone, I need to discuss becoming his permanent lawyer.” Ronald didn't even have the stomach to ha

    “What do you think of the new boss?” Mario, the co-pilot inquired of the main pilot, Seth.“What do I care?... As long as he pays my salary, I don't give a damn who serves as my boss.”“I guess you are right but that guy looks like a fucking deadbeat so I do wonder how he managed to get so much money.”“Perhaps he's a criminal. I won't be surprised if that's the case.” Seth remarked. “Regardless, we shouldn't concern ourselves with that. Let's just focus on doing our job.”“Alright, if you say so.”Just then, there was a flash of light ahead causing Seth's expression to shift. “Were there any reports of a storm today, Mario?”“Not to my knowledge, no.”“Are you sure?”“Of course, why?”“Then why the hell is there a fucking storm coming right at us!” ***The turbulence started with a few bumps with Ethan brushing it off as he conversed with Anna while enjoying their meals.But then, the system notification appeared and he knew that something was wrong.[Emergency mission is being gene

    Having made up his mind, Ethan rushed to the pilot seat and helped Seth out of it before taking his place. As he grabbed the wheel, all information on how to fly a plane immediately flowed into his brain like a river.Before now, Ethan had no idea how to fly a plane but at this moment, even veteran pilots wouldn't dare say they were more knowledgeable than him.With a smile on his lips, Ethan remarked. “Bring it on.” He focused on stabilizing the plane first to avoid getting tossed around by the storm after which he began to make his way around the tornadoes and flashing lightning.Despite the attempts of the gods to stop Ethan from reaching his destination, the Champion of Absolute proved himself up to the task.After almost an hour of flying through turbulent weather, Ethan managed to escape the storm, finally arriving within calm waters again.His rapidly beating heart calmed down allowing him some respite.For a moment, there was silence, and then, a triumphant laugh escaped Eth

    As a prestigious hotel, only the very rich people dared to enter Hotel Crimson and they were easily noticeable by the kind of clothes they wore, the accessories they carried, and even the cologne they wore. For a wealthy person, everything had to be designer, nothing else would suffice and the staff of Hotel Crimson had gotten used to that.This was why when Ethan walked in with Anna, he was immediately seen as a man who didn't belong and no middle-class pauper would be able to afford even the cheapest rooms in their establishment.“Are you sure you aren't in the wrong building?” The receptionist inquired, dropping all formalities as she addressed Ethan rudely.Ethan shook his head. “This is Hotel Crimson, right?”“Indeed it is.”“Then I believe I am in the right place.”“I don't think so.” The receptionist insisted, her eyes filled with contempt.Meanwhile, those who were enjoying themselves around the vicinity began to notice the commotion at the reception with most commenting on i

    Diana sneered like she'd heard the funniest thing ever. “Hah, you get a room here?... Do you even know what the cheapest room here costs?... Fine, I'll tell you, it costs 500,000 for a night yet you say you wish to get a room here?... Oh come on, you can be stupid but outright delusions are not acceptable. Have you ever seen five hundred thousand talk more of holding it?... If not that you can speak so clearly, I'd assume you were an escaped patient from the asylum.”Ethan chuckled. “Yet you wish to make me your boy toy?”“To help your life,” Diana remarked without hesitation. “So you can either accept an offer of a lifetime that could change your life or you can continue acting like a fool with no ambition.”More amused than anything else, Ethan glanced at the receptionist. “How do I go about booking a room?”The receptionist glanced at Diana who felt insulted.“Fine then, since you want to be so stubborn, I won't hesitate to entertain you.” She remarked before gesturing for the rece

    Having made sure to put both women in their place, Erhan didn't even bother to waste any more time as he took Anna's hand and made his way out of the hotel building.“That guy… that guy was a hidden powerhouse, right?”“Most likely, holy shit, how much did he pay for that gold-streaked black card?”From insults, everyone in the reception was left staring at Ethan in awe as he left the hotel, never to return.***Ethan left Hotel Crimson with Anna, going ahead to check into another hotel with much better customer service.Spending the night there, the duo woke up the following morning to a call from the Poltergeist.“I've confirmed the state of things. You can head over today.” She remarked over the phone.Ethan nodded. “Alright then, anything I should be wary of?”“Tension on the island is high right now, information reaching me is that a fight could break out at any time, so you'd best be careful.”“Noted, I'll try not to die.”“It would be beneficial to both of us.”“I'd say.”With

    Ethan had expected foul play and so he had prepared extensively for the entirety of today's events.He and Anna had imbibed potions that helped to nullify any kind of harmful substance taken into the body.When Caleb had brought the food for them to eat and make merry, the system had already warned him of poison but he'd taken it for one reason and that was to lure whoever it was that had bribed Caleb into betraying Poltergeist. To think that it would be an Apostle, though it was hardly surprising.Ethan could easily tell that BlackBeard was an Apostle of an Absolute Evil faction, almost like the other bastard he'd killed.In any case, it was fine, he could start now to reduce the number of enemies he'd have to face in No-man's-land.“I knew you'd fail but to think you'd not only fail but fail so spectacularly is beyond me, Caleb.”“No.”“Just shut up and step aside. I'll handle the rest.” BlackBeard intoned as he shoved Caleb aside with one hand, causing the playboy to collapse like

    Ethan froze as he hadn't considered it but being asked such a question now, an answer quickly formed.“Then I will accept my fate and return to the hotel. But at least… let me try.” Aurora nodded. “Since you saved me… I have no reason to refuse your request. But then, how do you plan to help me regain my memories?”“I have my ways.” Ethan confidently replied.Looking down at her cup of cocoa, Aurora replied. “Fine then, I'll cooperate.”“Thank you.” Relieved that she accepted, Ethan didn't hesitate to activate [LifeGiver].Moving to sit beside Aurora, he asked for permission to touch her head which she gave after which he placed his hand on her temple and got to work.Aurora’s expression shifted as the deepest recesses of her mind were healed from the trauma she'd experienced due to the accident.However, it allowed her to figure out so many things that had been unclear to her before now.Gasping, she pulled away from Ethan's palm with the latter growing worried. “Is everything okay?

    With Ethan at the helm, he replied with conviction. “That woman is related to Rani and Leilani.”“Why do you say so?”“It's just a gut feeling.”“But didn't she die?”“Maybe she didn't. I mean, she was an Apostle who managed to escape the GK Council for a long time. What's the likelihood that she didn't do something to herself so they won't be able to find her?”“You have a point.”Pursing his lips, Ethan decided to test something out first.He called up the system tab. “Reach out to the God of Information.”[Reaching out… the God of Information has arrived]“Did your previous Apostle die?”[The God of Information is silent]“Damn it, answer the question!”[He says that he doesn't know.

If possible, would you like to regain your memories?”“... I don't know if I want to. Whenever I try to think back, only fear, regret, and apprehension await. What kind of life would be waiting for me if I did?”“That…”“I'm sorry but I need to go. Since the manager lost his job, I'd have to seek employment elsewhere.”“Aren't you curious?... To know if you forgot something really important in your past?” The woman remained quiet for a prolonged period before shaking her head. “If it's not with me now, it must not have been important.”With those words, she got to her feet and added. “I'll be taking my leave now.”Then she left, leaving Ethan feeling frustrated and Kiara curious.“Damn it!...

I'm not sure. I feel like I know that woman.”Glancing at the woman, Kiara shifted her attention back to Ethan, unsure of what to make of the situation.On getting to their table, the waitress, who looked to be in her late forties made eye contact with Ethan only to freeze as an indescribable emotion crossed her eyes.Instinctively, Ethan intoned. “You...”The next moment, there was a loud crash as the food spilled all over the ground, catching everyone present by surprise.The woman snapped out of the temporary shock she was in and immediately turned fearful as she moved to clean up the mess, her body trembling as she muttered repeatedly. “Oh no, oh no, oh no.” As Ethan tried to stand up to help

Just watch.”Then the video moved forward quickly before pausing to reveal when Vivian sneakily approached the man she accused of stealing and placed the necklace into his pocket herself.A flurry of gasps escaped the lips of those present at that moment.Ethan shifted his attention to her, his expression riddled with disappointment. “When people like you do shit like this, it makes others wonder if I only pick on the rich. I don't do that. My only wish is that people are treated equally regardless of how much money they have. If he had truly stolen your necklace, I would have been the one to mete out punishment without hesitation but this… what do you have to say for yourself, Ms. Vivian?”Vivian hesitated as several gazes filled wit

    A glance was enough for people to guess that the man she was pointing at was lower class.The man stuttered. “What…”Before he could say more, he was immediately tackled by two muscular men that served as guards for Vivian who was heiress to the Carris family wealth. “I didn't do anything. Let me go!” The man cried out but Vivian only snorted as she reached into his pocket and pulled out an expensive-looking necklace.“You thief, you dare to take my expensive necklace. Do you know how much I bought it?... I will make sure you pay for this.”Just as Vivian was about to order her men to act, Ethan arrived at the scene. “What's happening here?” Adjusting herself to look more appealing to him, Vivian replied. “This pauper dared to try and steal my necklace. I want him punished immediately!”Ethan frowned before glancing at the man.“Mr. Jones, I didn't do it. It's all a misunderstanding.”Vivian snorted. “Then where did I find the necklace?...

    Glancing at the origin, Austin found Ethan staring daggers at him with eyes that screamed of murder.Before the situation escalated further, someone, or rather a group, arrived while calling out respectfully.“Ethan!”Ethan shifted his gaze away, allowing Austin to breathe once again.He found a man in a suit approaching, accompanied by guards. But that wasn't what caught his attention.Instead, it was the three beautiful women dressed provocatively behind the man who did for the dual fact that they were the ones who had called out to him and that they were, in fact, Louisa, Aquila, and Anna.They were breathtakingly beautiful to the extent that everyone was staring at them, including Rani.Ethan was rendered speechless with his killing intent vanishing as he stared at the women.Only when Louisa coughed did the atmosphere manage to relax somewhat, with the guards at the gate immediately greeting. “Good evening sir.”The manager glanced at them before remarking. “You both are fired.”
