Divinity: Against The Godly System Chapter 429 – Chapter 425: Scheme

Alice had a worried look on her face as she started having a bad feeling.

She called the number of Ryder to have a talk with him, hoping that it would calm her heart.

“The number you’re trying to reach has been switched off. Please leave a message after the beep.”

“Beep…”

As she called, all she received was information that his number was switched off. She was asked to leave a voice message for him.

“Please call me as soon as you get this message.” She left a message before she disconnected the call.

*****

Ryder had shot Mark right in the middle of his forehead, leaving a big hole in his head.

Notification kept resounding in his head.

[Main mission completed]

[Real World Level: +20]

[ Five Hundred Origin Points added]

[Two Strength Doubling Pills Received]

[Would you like to use both strength doubling pills?]

[Yes]      [No]

Ryder tapped on yes instantly. Both the pills appeared in his hand, which he ate instantly without delaying for even a second, wondering how long it would take before the pill took effect and increased his strength and abilities by four hundred percent. 

All the others were stunned to see it. Even the old man seemed confused, but he didn’t delay for even a second before he raised his hand in the direction of Ryder.

Ryder also made his move as soon as he could. He knew that the next few seconds were the most important. That’s why he had instantly fired another shot towards the old man.

As he had expected, the bullet changed its direction before it could even reach the man and hit the wall.

‘As expected, he can use the same kind of Protection; I’ll have to work hard,’ Ryder thought as he started running towards the old man.

He uses his full speed as he activated the protection of aria to make him invincible for a short time.

The old man’s expression free weird as he saw his powers not acting on Ryder.

What was happening? How could he be invincible to his powers? Just who was he? The old man wondered.

He picked up his cane and decided to use his physical strength to take care of Ryder. He was holding the cane in his right hand. 

As Ryder reached near the man, he swung his cane. Even though the cane was close to a meter long, a two meters long laser came out of it, increasing its reach even further.

‘Try anything you can, old man. I am invincible. Let me test my powers now,’ Ryder thought as he grinned.

The Protection of Aria was an overpowered ability that made him invincible for close to a minute. In this one minute, no ability or power could harm him. He could still be defeated with brute strength, but he wasn’t going to be harmed in this one minute.

The laser sliced through Ryder’s neck, bringing a smirk on the old man’s face, but his face grew even more shocked as he saw Ryder remaining unharmed.

There was not even a scratch on Ryder’s neck.

The man simply couldn’t believe what was happening.

“So you’re the masked man. The man we were searching for was right under our nose. No wonder we couldn’t find you,” the old man muttered as he clenched his fist.

“But if you think you have won, think twice.”

A powerful aura surrounded the old man as he punched Ryder’s face.

“Good. Let me see if I have enough strength to face a king now or not,” Ryder exclaimed as he smirked like he was enjoying it.

He had recently heard the notification that he was four times stronger. He was happy and eager to test his strength.

With his original strength, he wasn’t able to face the Kings, but he wondered if he could now that he was stronger. This was the best way to test.

There were only forty seconds left to his Protection of Aria. He absolutely needed to finish the man before those forty seconds passed, but he only had one bullet left.

The bullets were available in limited quantities in the store. There were only three available in slots, so he couldn’t even buy more if he missed.

He needed to make this one chance count and for that, he needed to divert the attention of the man.

Ryder also punched out. His fist clashed with the old man’s fist. 

The impact was so powerful that a high wind pressure range was developed between them, which pushed both of them back.

While Ryder was pushed back only two steps, the old man was in a worse condition.

His brute strength proved to be much weaker than Ryder as he flew back like a broken doll. There was a look of disbelief on his face. 

He could control himself in mid-air. Thus he prevented himself from hitting the wall, but that wasn’t enough as he found Ryder before him. 

Ryder caught the man by his neck and threw him on the opposite side of the room.

Ray was standing at one end of the room. Ryder stood in the middle of him, and the old man stood on the completely opposite side of the room.

Ryder still had a gun in his left hand, with which he shot the old man who had barely managed to control himself mid-air once again.

The bullet once again failed to hit the old man as it missed the man. His power managed to change the direction of the bullet once again.

“Fu*k!”

Ryder cursed out in anger as the bullet missed as well. He flew towards the man once again.

There were only fifteen seconds left to his invincibility. The old man seemed furious. It seemed as if he was being toyed with. Ryder was playing with him, and he didn’t like it.

He couldn’t understand anything that was happening now. How could Ryder not be affected by his power? How could he be invincible? More importantly, how could he be stronger than the man?

The old man had always seemed calm, but it was evident that he wants to scream in rage now.

Ryder threw the gun to the side as he flew towards the man, bare hands.

It seemed like it was going to be a fistfight with only ten seconds left to his invincibility.

Ten seconds were going to decide the direction that fight was going to take. Even though he was stronger than the man, he couldn’t form water weapons or use the Rain to weaken the enemy inside this closed room.

He had no way to handle the man’s invisible powers in this place. So these ten seconds were the most important to him.

The old man swung his right arm towards Ryder’s face once again as they both reached close enough to fight. Ryder ducked, making the man’s attack miss as he made an uppercut, making the old man fly up.

Ryder flew after the man and once again caught his neck as he started crushing it.

“Three…”

He was keeping an eye on the time left for his Protection of Aria. 

Only three seconds were left, which became two. 

The man held Ryder’s fingers with both his hands, trying to free himself.

His invisible powers were constantly attacking Ryder; however, the protection of aria was keeping him safe.

Only two seconds were left, which became one second. If Ryder couldn’t kill the man in one second, his body might be cut in half. He was sure of that.

‘Stop waiting, dammit!’ Ryder cursed in his mind as if wondering something.

“Urgh!”

The old man suddenly blurted out a mouthful of blood as a bullet entered his head from behind.

“That’s better,” Ryder muttered as he grinned.

“M-my h…”

The old man seemed like he wanted to say something, but his eyes lost their shine. He couldn’t even finish his sentence before he died.

The bullet that had hit him was the special bullet that Ryder had purchased from the store.

A smile appeared on Ryder’s face as he threw the old man’s body on the ground before he landed.

He could see Ray standing in the back with a gun in his hand.

Another gun was lying on the floor of the room.

This went all according to Ryder’s plan.

Right after Ryder had hit the man for the first time, he had three his gun towards Ray.

He had simultaneously taken out another guy so that the old man didn’t notice that his gun was missing.

The second bullet he had shot was from a normal gun while Ray stood behind with the real gun, waiting for the right moment to shoot.

Ryder knew that there was no way the old man was going to take his eyes off him. The chances of him being able to shoot the man were almost negligible. He was more threatening to the old man after all.

There was another man in the room who wasn’t on this old man’s radar, and Ryder decided to use him.

He finally managed to kill a King.
