Mr. Brewster was waiting for Ethan the next morning at the airport, with Ethan arriving accompanied by Obadiah, Lyra, and the seventh prince.

“You look sleep-deprived.” Mr. Brewster joked with Ethan replying.

“I am sleep-deprived.”

Even as a Champion, the effects of a good night's rest were undeniable, and Ethan hadn't gotten one in days.

Yawning, he intoned. “I'm guessing we'll be taking your plane.”

“Yeah and some good news.”

“Tell me.”

“The bid has been postponed till tomorrow but all attendees have to come in today and announce their presence so you can have the time to rest.”

Instead of feeling relieved, Ethan's expression hardened as he inquired. “When was this decision made?”

“Well, this morning, of course.” Mr. Brewster replied only to inquire. “Is there a problem?”

“There's a major problem.” Ethan intoned causing Mr. Brewster to frown.

“What do you mean?”

Ethan immediately told him everything that happened with the Salvatore family allowing Mr. Brewster to understand the r

    They were taken to Bling Resort which was a rather high-end hotel for the wealthy.Only the deep-pocketed ones were allowed on the grounds.Ethan and Mr. Brewster were escorted by Franklin and a few of his guards to the pool area where a man was waiting for them.Donning a pair of shorts, the man was in the company of two women who looked like models.Seeing Franklin, the man sent the women away.“You must be Ethan Smith.” The man remarked while seated comfortably before adding. “I am Emiliano Gonzalez, heir to the Gonzalez estate.”“Your father couldn't make it?”“He only shows up for important things. Unfortunately, meeting you is not important.”Ethan smirked. “Did you hear that, Mr. Brewster?... He says I'm unimportant yet they can't stop troubling me. Now, what do we call that?” “I'd say it's either he is lying about you being unimportant or something is wrong somewhere.” Mr. Brewster played along causing Emiliano’s expression to sour.“I don't understand, Mr. Jones, what do you

    If their cab driver was an assassin, what was the chance that more would be in the hotel where they were planning on staying?The possibility remained, and Ethan wasn't about to let it slide, so even as Mr. Brewster was still unsure of what to make of the body in the car, Ethan took notice of a few suspicious figures parading around the hotel.Immediately, he started the car and drove away.“What now?” Mr. Brewster asked as he realized that their destination had already been compromised.Pursing his lips, Ethan intoned. “Let's head to Obadiah's house. He should be able to keep us lodged until tomorrow.”“Hopefully we don't invite trouble on him.”“Yeah, hopefully.”It would seem he would have to take Lucia's offer on spending the night at her place.Hopefully no assassins there as well.The drive to Obadiah's house was punctuated by silence as Ethan focused on the road ahead while inspecting the adjoining areas for potential threats while Mr. Brewster found himself struggling inwardly

    “How?... That was my most powerful attack capable of stopping a truck. How could you defend against it?” Lester inquired.Ethan clicked his tongue as he replied. “Your most powerful attack?... No wonder it stung a little.”Lester felt a hit to his pride seeing as Ethan referred to his years of hard work like it were child's play.Unable to accept this, he intended to perform the same attack again, but Ethan was having none of that as he grabbed his fist and, using a neck chop, sent Lester to the ground, choking while gasping for air.Seeing this, Ethan didn't attempt a killing blow, instead, forming a fist and punching Lester until he passed out.Rid of the troublesome assassin, Ethan got to his feet and glanced back to find Mr. Brewster staring at him, half in awe, half in fright.“Ethan, Who are you?” Mr. Brewster questioned.Ethan sighed. “I'll explain once all this is over but for now, we need to get to Obadiah's house before any more assassins catch up. Hopefully, we don't get at

    With Mr. Brewster in a safe place, Ethan didn't bother to hide any longer as he followed the main path leading to Obadiah's manor. Naturally, the guards at the gate saw him, and immediately, word was sent to IronHeart, who asked them to let Ethan in. Expecting an ambush, Ethan didn't dare let his guard down for even a second, but he still walked into the premises, quickly discovering IronHeart’s presence in the courtyard. [Streaming has begun] [Available viewers: 100] “I didn't think you'd come out to receive me.” Ethan intoned as he came to stand a few meters away from IronHeart who had an impassive expression on his face. “May I ask why you are here?” “Is there a problem with my presence here?” Ethan inquired. “You have a bounty on your head, Mr. Jones. You being here places Sir Obadiah and his daughter at significant risk.” “You say that with a big smile on your face. Even if you want to lie, at least lie properly. What's the point of being so obvious about it?” “B

    Just like that, it seemed like their prey would soon slip out of their grasp.But that was when they got some information.“Are you sure?”“We've tried to reach out to Lester but he isn't responding. Same with Myers. I have a feeling our target might be related to their sudden silence.”“So what?... You are saying he took them out?... Lester is one of the best of us.”“The contractor did say that Ethan Jones was a man with skill. Perhaps he managed to outsmart them.”“Or buy them over. His background information seems to show that he is loaded.”“Fine then, where was Lester's last location?... We can have an idea where exactly Ethan Holt is.”“It was en route to Sir Obadiah's Manor where IronHeart is.”Then it clicked.It would seem their prey had gone to the one place he should have never dared to go to, after all, IronHeart was the worst of them.At least they didn't try to hide that they were cold-blooded killers.IronHeart, on the other hand, acted like a law-abiding citizen while

    “That's the news we got. As it is, our Assassins Guild has lost several of its finest men. It would take a relatively long time before we would be able to recover from such a loss. For that reason, we have decided to cancel the bounty.” “What, you can't do that.”“If you want Ethan Jones dead so badly, Mr. Emiliano, perhaps you should do it yourself.” “If I could, what would be the need for the bounty?” “I don't care. Do inform the princess about this.”With that, the assassin's chief ended the call, and Emiliano cursed under his breath.If he could deal with Ethan, would there have been a need for the bounty?He had underestimated Ethan and now, it seemed like he was about to face the music for such poor decision making.It didn't take long for the recent happenings to reach the third princess’s ears.She was in her bedroom preparing a cup of tea when one of her maids arrived and informed her of it all.Her expression fell rather quickly as she realized the gravity of the situatio

    Ethan quickly arrived at the basement and without much surprise, found that IronHeart was gone as well.He chuckled. Now, it was left to see if Obadiah had set him up out of his own free will or if he had been blackmailed to betray him.Either way, he would have to head to the palace to find out. With that, he returned to meet with the guards who were waiting. “Lead the way.”If he wasn't wrong, it seemed the third princess, Aquila, had made her move.Now, it was down to him to do something about it, or else he would end up unable to escape what was to come.Nodding, the guard quickly did as instructed, leaving his unconscious comrade behind.The walk was mostly punctuated by a few scornful looks sent Ethan's way.It seemed like whatever he was being accused of had reached the ears of most resulting in such a reaction. ***“To think that he would be audacious enough to do something so despicable. This is what happens when we are merciful to people.”“I agree. Due to this court's l

    Ignoring them, Ethan continued. “I did not assault Lyra, neither did I kill the seventh prince; both are news to me and if his majesty is willing, I would like to get to the bottom of it.” “Do you agree that what you have said is the truth?”“I do.”The Emperor glanced at Obadiah and Lyra before inquiring.“What do you say?” Lyra raised her head to stare at the Emperor before shifting her gaze to Ethan.Their eyes met and for a moment, silence reigned.Then she remarked. “He is lying.”Ethan raised a brow. “Is there a reason why I would do such a thing?”“That…”“Your majesty, forgive my insolence but allowing the accused to question the victim is not right at all. I doubt a woman would lie about such a thing so is there a need for these questions?” Moses remarked, his words earning the approval of all those present.“You are correct.” Came the response from an unlikely source.Ethan let out a sigh before adding. “So instead of having an unnecessarily long court session, let's quick

    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.

    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.”
