Divinity: Against the Godly System

Adrian looked at the picture in front of him as a beautiful smile spread on his face.

"You also found the address? The one that was filled in the form was not their current address. If I had the right address, I would have found her before things got troublesome. I want the right one this time," he said in a commanding tone as he looked at all the cyber experts.

"We found the address, Sir. She is living in the Estate that seemingly belongs to the Dream Corporation. She and her brother both reside there."

Hearing the answer, Adrian nodded.

"I've printed out the address."

The printer again started printing out a paper. 

Adrian picked up the paper and looked at the address.

"Ah, so it's in the same city. If only I had this address. Those Americans blocked my calls, or I would be able to find out," Adrian muttered as he sighed.

"Sir, since we are done, should we leave their database?"

"No. They messed with me when I was in their country. Why shouldn't I mess with them when I'm back? They brought this on themselves," Adrian replied, shaking his head. 

A smirk appeared on Adrian's face as he turned back. "Leave a gift to our American friends. Make is a good gift."

He stepped out of the hall.

Two men were walking behind him as he entered the building.

"Luke, I want you to go to America. Go to this address and find the girl for me. Tell her about me and bring her here with all due respect," Adrian gave the paper with the address to one of the men behind him.

The man was called Luke.

Luke was the right-hand man of Adrian. He had beautiful dark hair that wasn't very long. His eyes seemed slightly red. He was wearing a professional black coat as if he was a businessman. Both his hands had dark gloves that appeared to have diamonds in the knuckles.

"Yes." Luke agreed without any hesitation.

"Oh right, If I found out that you weren't respectful to her, you know how annoyed I will be, right?" Adrian inquired with an amused smile on his face.

"I will be careful." Luke nodded his head respectfully.

"Oh, right. Don't engage the person called Aluren in battle if you ever come face to face with him. He had a few pawns that are called something like Thirteen Kings. If they try to obstruct you, you can kill them. Just be alert of Aluren. He can kill you in an instant," Adrian said as he showed the image of Aluren on his phone. 

Luke looked at the pic of the silver-haired Aluren. 

"I will make sure not to fight him," he answered.

The doors of the lift opened. The three stepped out of the lift and walked out of the building.

"Your ticket is booked. You'll be leaving tonight. Make sure nothing goes wrong. It's important to me," Adrian said to Luke before he opened the door of his sports car and stepped inside.

The car zoomed off into the distance.

Only two guys were left behind. These two were the most trusted men of Adrian.

"He seems to place a lot of importance on the girl. I'm sure you know how crucial it is that there are no mistakes. Don't disappoint him," the second guy said as he tapped the shoulder of Luke. He stepped inside his car, which also left, leaving only Luke behind. 

Luke gazed at the address in his hand one more time before he folded the paper and kept it in his pocket.

"No one will stop me from bringing the girl back. Even if that Aluren comes before me, I won't let this mission fail," Adrian muttered as he stepped towards the third sports car in front of him. It belonged to him. 

He stepped inside the car and walked towards his Estate to collect his stuff for the journey.

Ryder walked back home after spending the day with Alice. As it was night, he already had dinner with Alice before going back.

"Shu won't be home tonight. I wonder if I'll see him in the world of Divinity. He should be there since he'll be free at night," Ryder muttered as he sat on his bed.

He wore the Divinity Glasses and laid down.

"Take me to Divinity."

He logged into Divinity. He appeared inside the carriage that was still.

The carriage driver was doing something which seemed like exercise. Rale was also there. Rale seemed to be looking around, waiting for Ryder to return.

"Rale, is Shu not here?" Ryder asked Ray as he stepped out of the carriage.

"He's not here," Ray answered, shaking his head.

"Strange. He should be here by now. Could it be that he really isn't logging in tonight? Maybe he's working at night as well. When you're the boss, work always comes first since there's actually no free time," Ryder muttered as he sighed.

"Without him, we can't do anything either. The Ring is with him, so we can't return it either. I guess we can only wait. If he actually doesn't log in tonight, it'll be a wasted day," he continued.

"Your Highness, it's been quite some time since we came here. I don't know why, but I have been having a feeling that something isn't right back home. I just can't seem to shake off this feeling," Rale told Ryder, expressing his concern.

"Don't worry about anything. I don't think Miku will expose our secret. And no one can find the truth that we're not in the Demon Realm. We wouldn't be in trouble," Ryder replying, smiling gently.

"It's not us I am concerned about. I don't know how to describe it. I just think that we really should be getting back fast. We had annoyed the Death Domain. Maybe it has something to do with that? Sigh, I know I'm asking for too much, but I trust my heart on this matter. Can we please go back?" Rale asked Ryder.

'Sigh, I can't say no, can I? He has always been so loyal. If he's insisting this much, his feelings of concern must be really serious. If the Demon Realm is actually in danger, I need to be there, but Shu...' Ryder thought as he looked towards the carriage.

" Fine, we will wait for four hours. If he isn't back in that time, we can leave. I'll leave the carriage behind for him. He already has the Ring of Lexini. He wouldn't need me. He can return the ring and finish the mission alone after this," he agreed to Rale.

The two of them started waiting as time kept passing slowly. Seconds turned to minutes, which soon turned to hours.

Four hours passed away just like that.

Ryder stood up as he sighed.

"I guess he isn't coming. Let's leave. I'll leave a message for him." he said as he opened the message screen.

Since Shu was on his friend list, he was able to send a message to Shu. He wrote a message saying that he needed to leave urgently. He also told Shu to return the Ring of Lexini and finish the quest.

After sending the message, Ryder talked to the carriage driver and told him to wait for Shu here, no matter how long it took.

After arranging everything, he left with Rale.

They walked to some distance, and after they were out of sight of the Carriage Driver, Rale caught Ryder's hand and started flying.

He flew at his maximum speed and even unlocked his seal to fly even faster since he really wanted to go back as fast as he could.

Unsealing himself almost doubled his speed; still, it wasn't enough to get to the Portal Point on time. It was already night, yet they hadn't reached there.

"We'll still take seven or eight hours to get to the Portal. We can rest for now. You have been flying throughout the day anyway. I'll rest too," Ryder told Rale after seeing that it was night time.

The night time in Divinity was the Day time in the real world. He needed to log out. He also needed to be prepared since today was the day when he needed to leave for the New Capital. His flight ticket was already booked along with Alice. He couldn't spend time traveling throughout the night.

"Right. Of Course." Rale started going down.

"I'll see you in the morning," Ryder told Ray before he logged out.

Ryder woke up in the real world and went to take a shower. After showering, he got dressed and packed his bags for this journey.

He went to Alice's room and opened the door as he stepped inside

"Alice, are you ready to leave?" he asked.

"I'm ready," Alice said, smiling as she closed the bag.

"Let's get going. We'll miss our flight otherwise," Ryder told her.

They left the Maxwell Estate and went to the airport.
