Night was falling outside Ledomas Estate, but Edward's hunting night continued.

Edward stuffed the unconscious Aunt Helene into a hidden door that couldn't be detected by the security cameras.

Once again avoiding the surveillance cameras, they began to sneak towards the monitoring room.

Since someone turned on the surveillance camera, there must be someone in the monitoring room.

Not counting the servants living in the villa.

Only his parents have not yet been found.

However, just as Edward was about to approach the monitoring room on the first floor,

Suddenly, they encountered the butler, Stevens.

Stevens also discovered Edward's photo stuck to the wall.

He raised his hands and explained to Edward:

"Young Master Edward, please calm down! I meant no harm!"

Edward paused for a moment, then asked in a low voice:

What do you need?

Stevens wiped the sweat from his brow and said nervously:

"The gentleman and lady sent me to find you. They have chosen to surrender. Game over."

Edward was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said:

"No way, stop lying to me. Get lost, I don't want to hurt you."

Stevens heard Edward's words,

A look of gratitude immediately appeared in his eyes.

However, he still didn't leave, and continued to raise his hands to Edward, saying:

"Young Master Edward, I'm telling the truth!"

The gentleman and lady are waiting for you in the monitoring room!

Edward considered the veracity of the matter, and subconsciously touched his clothes.

After a moment, he said to Stevens:

"Alright, you lead the way."

"Yes! Young master! Please follow me!"

Stevens nodded with a sigh of relief.

Then he turned and led Edward toward the monitoring room.

Soon, the two passed through a heavy wooden door.

Edward then followed Stevens into the monitoring room.

Tony and Becky sat in chairs in the monitoring room.

Edward, with a complicated expression, walked into the house.

Becky, Edward's mother, looked at him with a pained expression.

She spoke gently to her son:

"Edward, this curse isn't as terrifying as you think."

You're just traumatized by something that happened when you were a child.

Hide and seek is the only bad card in all the games.

Not everyone can get it.

Edward shook his head and said decisively:

"I don't want to gamble, and I'm unwilling to offer my woman to the devil with my own hands."

Hearing Edward's resolute reply,

Becky could only lower her head helplessly and whispered:

"Edward, don't blame us."

Edward's eyes narrowed instantly, as he suddenly heard his father say:

"Don't hit his head, leave him with a whole body."

Before Edward could react, a gunshot rang out behind him!

"Bang--"

A pistol bullet struck Edward directly in the back of the heart, knocking him to the ground.

Stevens, who fired the shot, seemed still uneasy.

He fired three more shots into Edward's back!

Bang bang bang—

Edward's body convulsed on the floor.

It was as if he was suffering extremely intense pain.

George, seeing Edward's expression, couldn't bear it any longer and spoke up to stop him:

"Enough! Stevens! That's enough to kill him!"

Upon hearing this, Stevens quickly put away his pistol and said somewhat hesitantly:

"I'm afraid this gun isn't powerful enough, and that it will cause Young Master Edward too much pain in his death."

Becky wiped away non-existent tears with a handkerchief and whispered:

"Drag his body away and bury him as soon as possible."

"Yes, Madam!"

Stevens bowed to Becky, then strode quickly toward Edward.

They planned to drag the corpse out of the monitoring room by its feet.

But just as he reached Edward's side, he unexpectedly discovered that...

There appeared to be no blood flowing from beneath Edward.

Moreover, several twisted and deformed bullets remained on his body!

While Stevens was still staring blankly at the few warheads,

Edward suddenly opened his eyes, and two beams of light flashed in them!

The [Seal of Justice] and [Blessing of Power] bestowed by Li Yuan

In an instant, he bestowed his blessing upon her!

Edward, gritting his teeth, suddenly sprang to his feet.

He stood up from the floor with ease.

In the terrified gazes of the three people in the monitoring room,

With a sudden, powerful punch, he swung his fist toward Stevens' face!

*Bang! Crack!*

Stevens' thick neck was broken by a single punch from the enraged Edward.

A terrifying sound of bones cracking rang out!

[Ding! Attendant Edward has eliminated one F-rank cultist, gaining 2 Holy Light Points and 10 Experience Points!]

[Ding! One cultist eliminated, converted into 0.5 believers]

"Huh! What's going on?"

Li Yuan, who had already fallen asleep, was instantly awakened by the sudden notification sound in his ear!

He grabbed his phone from the bedside table and called Edward directly.

Li Yuan feared that Edward would lose his temper and start a war with his family.

The phone rang for a while but no one answered, and eventually the call dropped.

Li Yuan stared at the phone in his hand and murmured softly:

"Edward, you absolutely must not get hurt."

Inside the monitoring room,

Becky, staring at Edward's sudden outburst, gasped in surprise, covering her mouth and shouting:

"Oh my god! Edward has come back to life!"

Tony stared at Stevens, who had been killed by Edward.

I was gripped by extreme panic.

He was filled with panic, fearing that Edward would kill him, his father, as well.

Edward killed the butler with a single punch.

He slowly turned his body and looked at his astonished parents.

He opened his right hand, which shimmered with holy hammer runes.

A dazzling holy light slowly appeared in his hand.

Becky's eyes widened, and she exclaimed:

"Edward, you've become an angel?"

Tony, the father, asked with an incredulous look on his face:

"You...you actually received God's favor?"

Upon hearing this, Edward said with a cold face:

"I have not received God's favor, nor have I become an angel."

As he spoke, he pressed the holy light against his chest and said in a deep voice:

"I have joined the Holy Light Cult and embraced the Holy Light!"

The effect of [Holy Light] activates instantly.

They quickly repaired Edward's body, which had been wounded by bullets.

Although the Silverscale Breastplate shielded Edward from the fatal bullet wound,

However, the force of the bullet still caused bruising on Edward's body.

A moment later, Edward's body,

The repairs were completed under the healing effect of the Holy Light spell.

The pure white holy light slowly receded before the shocked Tony and Becky.

Edward strolled up to his father.

Staring at his flustered face, he said:

"Father, now it's time for you to hand over the position of head of the family and let me sit there."

Tony paused upon hearing this, and subconsciously glanced at the ring on his finger.

Seeing this, Edward extended his hand to his father and said calmly:

Give it to me.

Tony glanced at his wife somewhat flusteredly, trying to get her opinion.

Becky glanced at Edward, whose face was ashen.

He nodded, and said in a trembling voice:

"Give it to him, Edward is all grown up now."

Upon hearing this, Tony reluctantly took the ring off his finger.

It was slowly handed to Edward.

Edward gazed at the black and gold patriarch's ring in his hand.

I finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The first step has been solved. All that's left is for Li Yuan to come and help him and his family lift the curse.

By this time, Edward was already very disappointed in his parents.

If he hadn't been cursed himself, he would never have returned.

With that thought, Edward slowly slipped the ring onto his index finger.

But who knew what would happen next?

The clan leader's ring slipped uncontrollably from his finger.

It fell to the ground with a clatter!
