“... Okay, but you call me if you need anything.”

“Don't worry, I'm shameless.”

“What does that have to do with anything.”

“That means I don't have any issues asking for help.” Ethan joked causing Louisa to chuckle.

“Be careful, okay?” Louisa said before proceeding to embrace him.

Ethan smiled. “I will.”

The duo hugged for a little while longer before Ethan broke it off before sending Louisa off after which he went on his way.

Once he was alone in an abandoned area, he placed a call across to Poltergeist.

“Well, well, if it isn't Ethan Jones. I was expecting your call.” Poltergeist remarked with a seductive smile.

Ethan sighed. “I guess you are aware of what's happening in Metro City.”

“For the sole purpose of figuring out what the GK Council is after.”

Ethan frowned as he recalled something. “The GK Council.”

“Yes, they are the organization that killed my mother.”

“Why?”

“She learned one of their deepest secrets and was planning on revealing it. Unfortunately, they hunted her down wi

    The scarf blocked all the bullets with relative ease, ensuring that Ethan remained untouched but this didn't seem to faze Lucia's men as it usually did for other foes he'd faced.They seemed aware of the existence of artifacts which meant that they were most likely men that the GK Council had sent to assist Lucia in her madness.To think that they would invest so much into killing him.It caused Ethan to grow even more curious as to why they were hellbent on ending him.Some of the guards below stopped shooting their guns, tossing them aside, and opting for various offense-based artifacts that would be able to bypass the scarf’s defense to harm Ethan.Naturally, Ethan wasn't about to let them have their way as he activated the body armor he had purchased from the Universal Supermarket.It offered him both defensive and offensive properties which he utilized to its full extent.He charged down like a bull, retrieving a staff he had also purchased from the Universal Supermarket.The fir

    Sweeping one last look around, he finally shifted his attention to Lucia who was staring wide-eyed at him, trembling in fear. “Impossible, there's no way you managed to defeat them all.” Ethan sneered. “You have no idea what is possible with me around, Lucia.” “Impossible!... You are just some gamer!... There's no way you can be so powerful!” “You didn't stop to think why such powerful people would be after my life, did you, Lucia?” Lucia trembled as she didn't want to admit that he was correct. She had always seen him as inferior to her, a piece on the chessboard in a game that would see her reach the peak of the world. Now, he was greater, more superior than she could ever imagine, leaving her completely in the dust. Lucia's inflated ego didn't want to admit that Ethan had surpassed her which was why she couldn't accept his victory. She trembled as she backed away, struggling to come to terms with the sight before her. “You made a huge mistake you decided to betray me, Luci

    “Damn it, what do you think you are doing?... You have no right to take our loot!” Job, one of Aaron's agents remarked in annoyance as he stopped Stenton's men from having their way. Scholes, who was present, naturally wouldn't miss the opportunity to put the bastard in his place as he bellowed while unleashing divine pressure. “Who do you think you are to get in the way of our work?” Job gritted his teeth as he replied. “This isn't right!... You have no right to cease our possession!” Scholes glared at him. “Just like your boss, insolent trash!” He slapped Job across the face, sending him flying to the ground. But that wasn't all as the slap was so hard, Job's face was left quite damaged. “I'll give you one warning, you'd best scram or else, don't blame me for being unjust. Everything has been confiscated by the law enforcement agency and there's nothing you can do about it!” “And who decided that!” Ethan's voice came like a torrent, sending Scholes staggering back as he could

    Captain Scholes was clearly in support of this as he nodded along. “Now go and do as I say. I don't want to hear that anything happened.”“Yes sir.”With that, Commissioner Stenton watched Scholes leave before proceeding to place a call across to an unlikely contact. “What's the update?” Reginald asked from the other end.Stenton replied. “That bastard Ethan defeated Lucia, now he plans to take her in.”“You can't let that happen.”“Don't worry, I won't. But you have to make sure to stick to your side of the bargain.”“Sure. Just make sure Ethan becomes an enemy of the state.”***Ethan received a message from Captain Scholes asking him to meet the Commissioner at a warehouse on Park Avenue.“Young master, you can't go. It's a trap.” Aaron remarked worriedly.Ethan snorted. “You think I don't know that?”“It looks like you plan on going there.”“I need to save our men.”“They knew what they were getting into when they decided to become your guards.

    “Mr. Jones, Mr. Jones, a moment please.” Ethan was currently surrounded by a crowd of journalists all vying to grab his attention.Escorting him was Aaron and his agents with Commissioner Stenton in handcuffs.“Mr. Jones, can you explain the current situation?... The city would like to know how you caught the terrorist?”Ethan paused, glancing at the journalist who questioned him only to answer. “It was a simple task. In truth, the only reason the enemy hadn't been caught before now was the fact that the Commissioner had a hand in the process.”“Is there any evidence of this?”“No need, the Commissioner admitted to this himself,” Ethan replied before glancing at Stenton. “Isn't that right?”Stenton trembled underneath his gaze, barely able to maintain basic composure.To think that the almighty police commissioner had fallen to such an extent all because of a washed-up E-Sports player was something that few could dare to comprehend.Stenton remarked. “He is right. I assisted Miss Luc

    If they allowed such to fester, it wouldn't be long before Ethan would hold more people power than then which was something they couldn't allow to happen.It also wouldn't bode well if they ended up trying to attack him as if they couldn't defeat Stenton, is it the man that could defeat him that they would be able to defeat?Of course not! “I can offer you the post Commissioner Stenton held, making you the new Chief of Defense Staff for Metro City with improved benefits and resources.”Ethan snorted. “I don't think so.”“Do you require a financial reward?”“Not interested.”“Then what can we do to be considered even?”“Simple, clear my record. I plan to inform the city of the truth behind the incident three years ago and I need to make sure that my criminal record is erased so I can start over. Do that and we can be considered even.”Minister Wayne, instead of feeling relieved, frowned as he replied. “Alright then, that can be done.”“I will keep these three in custody until a reason

    “Why am I not surprised?” Mr. Brewster said with a chuckle after hearing what Ethan had to say.It was safe to say that Ethan's growth was nothing short of phenomenal, leaving even a billionaire like Mr. Brewster unsure of how to feel in his presence. In the future, the Gen-X owner decided that it wouldn't be bad to treat Ethan as a man worthy of not just superficial respect but true respect as he was deserving of it.Not only had he recovered his name and cleared himself of the crimes he'd been forced to take on in the past, but he was creating a new path, one that had only one endpoint; the peak of the world.Ethan remarked. “I plan to bring back Zero during the competition so it has to hold.”“The problem is we don't have a venue and it needs to be worthy of the competition else people would not come.”“Are there no structures in the city?”“None.” Mr. Brewster replied in a regretful tone. “And we can't go to other cities as they would be using their venues to host their competiti

    “Are you Ethan Jones?” The woman asked.Ethan nodded. “Yes, are you Louisa’s messenger?”“Correction, I was her nanny growing up and now, I am her second mother. In her 23 years of living, I have never seen that girl act the way she did when it came to you. At this point, she is going against her entire family for your sake.”“Why?”“The person that would be her partner will soon be fixed and at that point, Louisa would have no choice but to marry him. But she doesn't want that, instead, she would rather be with you.”Ethan could hardly believe his ears as he stared blankly at the middle-aged lady. “What?”“Of course, her father would not hear of it and has locked her in her room, preventing her from leaving to go anywhere. My lady is depressed and struggling to keep it together. She begged me to tell you this.”“What do I need to do?”“Louisa's fate is sealed at this point… either save her from it or convince her to accept it. Do you understand that?”“... I do.” Ethan's expression w

    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. She forcibly ended her contract with him and even found a way to block his gaze to ensure he wouldn't find her]“Why would she do that?”[He has no idea. It happened too quickly for him to figure out]“I see.” Ethan immediately began to feel like there was something fishy going on.Regardless, he had t

    Ethan and Kiara exchanged looks with one another before Ethan shifted his attention back to the waitress.“You don't remember anything at all?” The waitress paused, her eyes seeming to flash with emotions before she remarked. “I'm not sure.”“... 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!...

    Despite not knowing the woman at all, Ethan couldn't help but zero in on her as the blood within him surged like it had found its source.The woman seemed to be in discomfort as well as her expression shifted slightly.Noticing Ethan's reaction, Kiara inquired. “Is everything alright?”“... 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?...

    Even the waiter gasped as he watched the bill reach up to a hundred thousand and even then, it did not stop.Once they were done, he was forced to ask if they were certain with Anna inquiring.“Do you think we can't afford it?”“... 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.”
