Ethan's run to the hotel garage was punctuated by heavy gunfire with the police officers in pursuit not even bothering to show restraint with the appearance of civilians.

They rushed after Ethan with killing intent gushing out, causing him to wonder just what could have caused them to go crazy.

Ethan could easily take them even with the artifacts that some of them held but he had to think about Rebecca's safety as well, so he utilized [Hyper Motility] not in an offensive form but instead support, as he finally arrived at the garage.

Unfortunately, it seemed the person who had planned the assault expected him to come here as a group of armed men were already waiting to block anyone wishing to pass.

“Halt!” The man leading the group exclaimed as he brandished his weapon, prepared to fire should Ethan go against him.

Ethan paused and after taking a moment to scrutinize the group, inquired. “Aren't you guys law enforcement?”

“Of course!”

“Then why are you after me?”

“Because you are a ter

    “Damn it, how useless can these police bastards be?... I forked over more than 30% of my worth and yet they still haven't caught that bastard. What the fuck am I supposed to say?” Don Falcon cursed loudly as he glared at the messenger who had delivered him reports of how the attack had turned out.He'd expected to see Ethan before him, pleading for his life like the worm he is, but instead, he somehow managed to break out of a surprise encirclement by the police and escaped with no injuries.Didn't this mean that the police were incompetent?... How else were they unable to deal with one man?“Don, please be patient, there's no way that man can leave Rhodes Island. It's only a matter of time before he's caught and brought to you.”“Do you think the current state of things came to be maintained?... Fucking do what needs to be done before important families in the city start getting restless. When that happens, do you think the police would be able to mobilize like they did today?” Don q

    “You dared to show your face despite sensing my presence, it seems you have a death wish,” Hawk remarked coldly as he glared at Ethan.Unmoved by the threat, Ethan intoned. “Not really.”“Well, now that I've found you, you can forget about leaving here alive. I heard you call Don Falcon a frog in a well. Well then, watch how this frog teaches you a lesson in humility. I can assure you that once I'm done with you, you won't even be able to take two steps without crying.”“Has anyone told you that you talk too much?” Ethan inquired causing Hawk's face to sour.“What?”“Stop talking and make a move already. I'm getting bored just standing here.”“How dare you!... Do you have a death wish?”“Boss, let's shoot this bastard down. Does he think we don't dare to kill him?”“Yeah boss, let's teach him a lesson!”As Hawk's men clamored to have a go at Ethan, Ethan merely yawned while Hawk bellowed.“Shut up!” With that, his subordinates went silent and even some trembled, growing pale at the p

    Ethan moved in the shadow of night, stealthily checking on the situation in the city.Contrary to his expectations, the police patrols hadn't reduced and instead had gotten a substantial increase in quantity as policemen patrolled the streets at every corner, knocking on houses and searching thoroughly without pause.Ethan clicked his tongue, Don Falcon truly had the power to be able to mobilize the police in such a way which was amusing considering he was supposed to be the head of the black market and overall master of crime in the city.It seemed it was no exaggeration when they had claimed him to be the one in control of Rhodes Island.Perhaps even the Island governor couldn't be compared to him concerning connections.Regardless, this only exacerbated Ethan's desire to end the bastard's life.Since he was so keen to take Ethan's life, then naturally, Ethan wouldn't back down and would show the same intensity in taking his life.However, the police and general law enforcement curr

    “Who are you?” The butler asked in a somewhat aggressive tone as he cocked the shotgun, poised to shoot the moment Ethan made the wrong move.Naturally, Ethan could evade if he wanted to but knowing that doing so would only increase the butler's apprehension towards him, he decided to take a different approach.“I am but a nameless wanderer, like a rolling stone I have no place to call my own. You may call me Ghost.” Ethan recited while feeling his toes curl.Did it have to be so cringe?The butler remained unconvinced. “How did you get past security and why are you here?” “Apologies for coming here unannounced but I am here on the orders of those beyond human understanding to help those in need.” The butler furrowed his brows. “What do you mean?”“Isn't this house in need of help?... I am here to offer up my help.”The butler was just about to speak when an arrogant-looking man arrived. “Albert, who is this?”“Ah, young master Karan, he claims to be here to help us.”Karan raised a

    Karan glared at Ethan as he remarked. "Why you…" “Are you not going to speak up?” Ethan inquired, ignoring the daggers sent his way.“Guards, kick this bastard out of here!” Karan bellowed with some of the security men heeding his words.Rowan spoke up at that moment. “Stand down!” However, the security men only paused for a moment to glance at Karan who gave them the go-ahead signal.Rowan was shocked.When did he lose control of his house?“Karan, what is the meaning of this?”Karan snorted. “You better stay out of this old man, you are no longer allowed to say anything.”“Karan, are you out of your mind?... That is your father!” One of Rowan's brothers scolded but Karan didn't even put him in his eyes.“From this day forth, I am the head of the Walia family, whoever doesn't want that can speak up now so I can end their sorry existence.”“How dare you say such while I'm still alive?” Rowan questioned only for Karan to point a gun at him before slowly cocking it.“Not for long.”“K

    “Give me two hours.

    “Damn it, how hard can it be to find one man?... If we don't find that bastard by the end of the day, Don Falcon will have our heads, do you understand that?” Inspector Ralph remarked, scolding the officers standing in his office.“Sorry sir, but we are trying our best. It's just that this man is quite skilled. I mean, he somehow managed to escape the encirclement back at the hotel.”“Do you think I care about that?... You'd best not make me think of you fools as unable to do your jobs, else, I might just have to discuss your punishment with Don Falcon.”The officers trembled as they knew that only someone on the level of Commissioner Rowan could stand against Don Falcon.Ever since he left, they had turned into Don Falcon's pawns, doing what he told them with no chance of going against him.Inspector Ralph snorted. “Just get out of my office and get back to work. I need to see results!”“Yes sir!”Immediately, the officers rushed out of Ralph's office, leaving him to let out a sigh.

    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!...

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.

    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?...

Not at all ma'am. I'll get them right away.”Watching the waiter scurry away, Anna chuckled.Ethan sighed. “Stop bullying the poor guy.”“It's just so much fun,” Anna remarked with a wide smile.Just as the group delved into discussions about various topics, someone approached their table at that moment.It was a young blonde man with an arrogant smile.“Excuse me, Miss, but would you be interested in joining me at my table?” He began, barely paying any attention to Ethan.Taken aback at first, Aquila looked about, unsure if the man was talking to her.Realizing that he was indeed speaking to her, Aquila intoned. “I'm sorry, what?”“My name is Gilbert Junior Jones, son of Gilbert Senior and heir to the Jones estate.

    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.”
