“I see.” Ethan wasn't worried and instead, anticipated the meeting.

If he could get a third clue about the King of Curses, it would make it easier to deal with the menace before it was too late.

“Has he decided on a time and place?” Ethan inquired.

“Yes, he has. He says he would send the address once it's time for the meeting.”

Ethan snorted as he understood that the man wanted to avoid being investigated before the meeting.

Of course, that didn't mean there was no means to still carry out an investigation.

“I'll handle the rest. Just continue with your work.”

“Alright, sir.”

With that, the call ended and Ethan put a call across to Aaron.

“Young master.”

“Is everything alright at the manor?”

“So far, so good.”

“That's good. I need your best men to investigate a certain someone for me. I'll send you his name and picture. I need you to ensure I have all information on him before 2 pm. Can it be done?”

“Absolutely young master, that's not a problem at all.”

“Good, I'll send the informati

    "Haha, my apologies," Oliver remarked, realizing he may have touched a nerve.It was annoying since he had thought Ethan would be like other billionaires he was familiar with who enjoyed being praised for doing the bare minimum.For them, all that mattered was profit and so it was easy to draw them in with cheap words.With Ethan, he somehow managed to still put his friends and family first, so Oliver had to figure out another way to get to him.Feigning a smile, he clapped his hands. "Mr. Jones, I guess I need to learn how you manage to balance your family life and business. Speaking of which, how did you do it?... What business do you run to have gotten so much wealth in such little time?""Mr. Wallace, forgive me for saying this but I don't think that's something to discuss now. You mentioned you had something important to speak about, if this is it, I'd advise you to leave as I have a lot on my plate at the moment.""Are you kicking me out, Mr. Jones?" Oliver inquired, his express

    Meanwhile, Ethan remarked. "Mr. Wallace, please give me a moment to make a phone call, I'll get back to you shortly.""Oh, Mr. Jones, is the amount so big that you have to think about it?... You could just pay up now and everything would be resolved.""As I said, give me a minute.""Alright then, but you should hurry up, the more time that passes, the more the money climbs up."With that, Oliver stepped out to wait with Leilani quickly addressing Ethan."You can't give him that money."Smiling, Ethan replied. "Even if your career gets stalled?""..." Leilani hesitated before replying. "That's fine. I'll just keep trying but I won't allow you to get scammed because of me."Seeing how much Leilani had changed, Ethan felt grateful in his heart.So this was how it felt to have good friends?... He would be wise to preserve the relationship.With that, he said. "Don't worry, I won't be scammed. Just wait."Taking out his phone, he dialed a number."Hello, Francesca."[Yes boss]"How familia

    Even a fool would be able to tell that due to Ethan's actions that had resolved most of the issues, the King of Curses had decided to hurry things along for fear of getting caught before it was too late.Instead of getting scared, Ethan flashed a smile, as this meant that he was close to taking down the bastard that started the mess in the first place.That was enough reason for him to keep up the pace.So, he got to his feet and made to leave only to pause as he recalled that Leilani was still around.Unwilling to wait, he decided to head over to the restroom only to come across a sorry sight.***Leilani had just finished using the restroom when she stepped out only to bump into someone.“Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry.” The person she had bumped into turned out to be a popular singer in Metro City that called herself, Cheyenne.She had been the biggest name in Metro City and had graced every single major event in Metro City, proving her monopoly as a superstar.But in recent years, she

    Compared to Leilani, who had just gotten a physical slap, this slap was sure to ring on for generations to come.“You bastard!” Cheyenne lost it as she tried to attack Ethan, but surprisingly, Leilani stepped forward and shoved her back before slapping her across the face, catching Cheyenne completely by surprise.Ethan was also surprised by this as it was the first time he'd seen Leilani so aggressive.“You can touch me, but don't you dare touch Mr. Jones,” Leilani remarked harshly, leaving Cheyenne no choice but to back off.Having arrived as a tyrant, she left with her head down in shame, with no way to ever raise her head again.“Thanks.” Ethan intoned causing Leilani to respond.“You fight for me, I fight for you. That is how it works, right?”Ethan managed a smile as he nodded. “Indeed.” ***When the time for the meeting arrived, Ethan was informed about the location and he drove over after taking Leilani back home to ensure her safety.As he was the one cursed, others were mer

    Larry thought his plan was flawless.He had been careful to leave very little in terms of clues and had ensured that he targeted the right places with the curse, Advent of Calamity, yet despite his meticulous actions, he found out that not only was Ethan unharmed, but he had somehow subverted his expectations, ensuring that there was no loss on his end.Gritting his teeth, he couldn't help but question how that was possible.Ethan might be an Apostle but even divine beings feared the Advent of Calamity as it was not a curse that could be easily dealt with.So how the hell did Ethan Jones manage to survive for so long without a single loss?Larry was almost at his wit's end as he had been a hitman for years, killing many targets with the Advent of Calamity.This was the first time that a target had survived this long and coming from a family of assassins feared in the underworld, this was naturally a disgrace.The Advent of Calamity was a fearsome curse created by the God of Malevolenc

    “Indeed. I didn't think it would be used in such a manner, but to ensure that you got a chance to survive, your system activated the ticket, allowing your soul to seek solace here instead of the afterlife, which would have been a permanent death.”“I see.”“I foresee immense danger in your future, Ethan. Several people want you dead.”“Why?... Why do they want me dead?”“I guess you still haven't recovered the memories, have you?”“What memories?” Ethan asked in confusion.Eve let out a sigh. “It's a long story, we should head to somewhere more private.”Saying that, Eve waved her hand and the scenery changed, as instead of a forest, they appeared to be within a tree house.Before Ethan could regain his composure, Eve began. “A long time ago in the divine world, there was a being that called himself the God of Games. He was a unique individual who was looked down upon for being too much of a joke. Others didn't even take him seriously and mocked him for being useless. That was until t

    A lot of things became clear to Ethan after the discussion with Eve. He'd always had questions, like where his parents were, why he awakened a system, and why it felt like there were trials at every corner. It made much more sense now even though it was hard to accept that he was the incarnation of a literal deity and not just any deity but the supreme deity that ruled over heaven and earth. Now with a looming threat that could potentially end everything, Ethan realized just how meaningless the petty fights on earth were. Of course that didn't mean they were completely pointless. Without those conflicts, he would have never been able to grow and according to the system, he needed conflicts to grow. Letting out a drawdrawn-outh, Ethan got to his feet and asked. “Is there a way back?” “I can give you a fruit from the Tree of Life. It should be able to bring you back to life, but I can't just give it to you for free.” “Why?” Ethan inquired. Eve replied. “It has to come

    “If not for you, I'd have never found out who I was and what my goal was. Or rather, maybe I'd have found out but not so soon. Regardless, thank you. You have been undoubtedly helpful, unfortunately, I strictly live based on the principle of an eye for an eye.”“You better stay away, my family will not let you off if you do anything to me,” Larry warned as he took another step back.Ethan didn't even act like he heard the threat as he took another step forward with Larry screaming at the armed officers.“Shoot him down!... Shoot him down now!”The officers were still in shock but on Larry's insistence, they didn't hesitate to put up their guns and unleash another round on Ethan.Unfortunately, this time around, Ethan was prepared for their troublesome bullets as he activated his skill [Hyper Motility] and dodged all the bullets, allowing them to strike each other instead.By the time he slowed, the officers were on the ground, dead while Larry was on the floor, struck by a ricochet fr

    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.

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?...

    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.”
