Divinity: Against the Godly System

Chapter 393: Cyber Warfare?

"What messages did mother send?" Itsuki asked the woman who stood before him, gazing at him respectfully.

"She told me to convey her message that she wishes you luck and she hopes you’re doing well. Oh, she also wanted you to know something important. She said, stay away from the matters of ladies. I don’t know why she said that. Maybe she divined your destiny. I didn’t ask her. It would be good to follow her advice, though," Freida replied as she smiled.

"Haha, I don’t think it’s her divination. She always says that to me. She’s worried some lady might steal the affection of her precious son. Don’t worry. I’ll be careful. I’m always careful," Itsuki replied as he chuckled.

"That’s all. I will take my leave now," Freida informed Itsuki before she started walking back towards the portal.

She stopped before entering the portal as she glanced back. "Oh, Young Prince, best of luck for the trial. I am sure you will do great," She wished him before she entered the portal.

The Portal disappeared soon after.

"So Adrian will be back in Russia, and Aluren will be back to his work. I do wonder why Adrian went there. What was he looking for? No matter how many times I try calling him, his phone is off, and he’s not picking up," Itsuki muttered as he tapped his fingers on the table, lost in some thought.

"I don’t think he would tell me, though. If he was willing to tell, Aluren might have helped him instead of exposing himself to get Adrian out of that place by involving them. Just what is it? What could make him greedy? Just what is his Trial? Is it related to that? It shouldn’t be. It’s getting complicated. I don’t believe Adrian will sit silently. I have a feeling that it will be cyber warfare. Let’s see who has the last laugh," he wondered.

Ryder logged out of Divinity and got off the bed.

He got ready after showering before he left the house.

As it was a Sunday, Alice didn’t need to go to the university, and even if she did, Ryder wasn’t going to leave her alone like last time. Since she was at the Shu Estate, Ryder believed that she was safe enough for him to be able to leave.

Racing his whirlwind in an unknown direction, he departed from the Shu Estate.

He stopped the car near the airport where he was supposed to meet someone.

He sat at the driver seat of his Whirlwind, gazing towards the exit of the Airport.

A beautiful lady left the airport and looked around. She wore a long dress that fit her body perfectly.

She walked towards Ryder, who was inside his car.

"Ah, hey. Nice car. Can I ask for a lift?" The lady inquired with a cute smile on her face.

"Sorry, I am waiting for someone. You should book a cab or ask someone else," Ryder replied, not giving any importance to the lady.

"Hmph, blind man. You must still be single. You can’t appreciate beauty. At Least ask me for a coffee or something. A pretty lady approached you on her own. You should be glad," the woman didn’t leave; instead, she started getting even more active.

"Look, lady. If I’m single or not has nothing to do with you. I don’t have time to mess around with you. I’m waiting for someone. I told you. Stop screwing around," Ryder waved his hand, gesturing for the woman to leave.

"You! You can’t be serious! I’m sure you saw me. How can you be unaffected by my charm?" The Lady continued talking to Ryder.

"Sigh, I got it. You’re crazy. I wonder why they let crazy people," Ryder sighed as he heard the lady’s response.

He opened the door of his car and stepped out.

"Where do you want to go?" He asked as he stood in front of the car.

"Hahaha, you finally appreciate me. I want to go to this address," The lady said as she showed Ryder a paper that had an address written on it.

"Hmm? Oh, that place. I got it. It doesn’t matter where you wish to go anyway. I already have a destination in my head," Ryder replied as he read the address before he started gazing at the woman from top to bottom.

"I say, you’re not bad looking. I can kind of see where you get that crazy confidence from. My gang would like someone like you. All us brothers were looking for a girl like you," he muttered as he licked his lips.

"G-gang? All Members? Looking for one girl?" The woman’s face turned pale as she heard Ryder’s words, which he intentionally said in order to make her scared subtly.

"Hahaha, yeah. In fact, I was waiting for a woman as well. You are prettier than her. I’m sure my men will like you. They’ll treat you like a princess. Get in the car. I will definitely drop you at the right location," Ryder said as he chuckled while standing with the support of his car.

"Ah, N-no. It’s fine. I was joking. I have my mother coming to pick me up. T-thanks for the offer," the lady let out as she starts running away like a scared cat.

"Hah, I guess we must be crazy to deal with crazy," Ryder muttered as he smiled.

He gazed at the exit of the airport before he looked at the time on his clock.

"He should be here by now," Ryder muttered.

He soon noticed a person coming out of the airport. It was a young looking man who was in a black coat and black pants.

The man walked towards Ryder after noticing him.

He stopped near Ryder and reached out his hand to shake Ryder’s hand. Ryder also did the same.

"Ryder," the young man said softly.

"Ray, we meet again. Get in the car. I have a lot of things I need to take about," Ryder replied as he opened the door of the car and stepped inside.

Ray walked to the other side and sat on the passenger seat of the two-seater sports car.

The car started driving towards a certain section of the city.

" You said you finally have somewhat of an idea where the Dark Uprising’s base might be?" Ray asked after sitting silently for some time.

"Yeah. After observing their movement and their locations, I finally have an idea where their base might be. I think I also know where their temporary bases are. I’ll tell you everything you want to know. First I need to take you to a place. You can’t disclose what I’m about to tell you to anyone," Ryder replied in full seriousness.

"I won’t tell anyone. You can trust me," Ray said, nodding his head.

Ryder took the car to the building that he owned, but he didn’t stop there. He only stopped the car at the next building where he had killed the people of the Dark Uprising when he foiled their plan to cause explosions all around the city.

Ryder stepped out of the car. Ray did so as well.

"Why did you bring me here?" Ray asked Ryder in confusion as he looked at the abandoned building.

"I remember this building. It’s where we believe you kidnapped someone. And in the nearby building, we arrested you," he let out as he smiled wryly.

"Yeah, this building is pretty unlucky. Many things happened here. You remember that blast that occurred in the airspace nearby a few months ago?" Ryder inquired.

"Yeah. I came to investigate personally, but I couldn’t find any clue until you told me about it." Ray nodded his head.

"That’s right. They were behind it, and it was their plan to cause explosions all around the city. Their temporary residence was this tower. It was where I killed many of their people. I’m still surprised they managed to clear all the bodies before you guys came to investigate."

Ryder started explaining.

" Anyway, this was where I placed a tracker on their executives, which I had been using to track them. I can’t give you the device that I use to track their location since I can’t expose all my secrets, but I did create a map with their locations that I assume to be their bases similar to this place. I also believe their permanent headquarters is..."

He opened a world map and pointed at a certain location on the map.

"This island?" Ray inquired with a confused look on his face.

"Yes. I am ninety percent sure that this is one of their bases and slightly less sure that this is their main base. I leave the rest to you. These are the maps that have the location along with the extra information I marked. You can finally begin your raid," Ryder told Ray.

"This Island... We can’t touch," Ray muttered, shaking his head. His words stunned Ryder.
