Divinity: Against The Godly System

Chapter 134: Him again?

Ryder saw the man coming towards the girls. He could feel something was wrong as he watched the man staring at the girls. The man looked suspicious.

He started walking towards the man.

Ryder reached the man before the man could reach the girls. He lightly tapped on the shoulders of the man.

The man turned back, but he was shocked to see a man in Single Attack Man’s mask, pointing his gun towards him. Ryder kept the gun in such a way that only the man could see it.

"Don’t move unless you want to become a shooting practice for me," Ryder told the man softly.

"What do you want?" the man asked Ryder.

"Why do you want to harm the girls?" Ryder inquired.

"What do you mean? I don’t want to harm them," the man said in confusion.

"Really? Why was your hand moving towards your pocket that contains a knife as you were walking towards them?" Ryder asked again as he pointed towards the man’s pockets.

"H-how, do you know?" the man stuttered as he asked. His face was filled with shock. He couldn’t understand how Ryder knew about the Foldable Knife in his pocket.

"I didn’t know, but I took a vague guess after seeing its outline and your expressions. You just verified it. Give me an excuse not to shoot you right now," Ryder said to the Man.

"I-i have nothing to do with it. I don’t even know the girls. My boss asked me to do this. Let me leave. I won’t ever do this again. I’ll even leave this job," the man pleaded to Ryder.

"Who’s your boss, and what did he ask you to do?" Ryder asked him.

"My boss is Jameson. He’s the owner of this place," The Man answered Ryder.

"That Jameson once again. He isn’t going to learn without dying, is he?" Ryder muttered with anger on his face.

"What did he tell you to do?" Ryder asked.

"H-he told me to kill the girl. He said that the girl is without security at the moment, and it would be the best opportunity to kill her. I don’t know much else," the man answered.

Ryder subtly glanced at Alice and her friends.

’Security? Alice never had security. Is he talking about her friend?’ Ryder thought.

"You’re talking about the girl in the red skirt, Right? Why is Jameson targeting her? I don’t think she had any enmity with him," Ryder asked him as he pretended to know the girl.

"Yes, the girl in the red skirt. I was given her picture, and I was told to kill her," The Man said.

’Is that Jameson idiot? He made two plans, and both contradict each other. If the blast had succeeded, the girl wouldn’t come here. Why would he have made this second plan to kill her here,’ Ryder thought with a frown. ’Unless the plan was made some time ago?’

"When did he tell you about what you had to do?" Ryder asked. "It should be after 12 today, right?"

"How do you know about that?" The Man was once again surprised at Ryder’s knowledge. Why did he know about it, he couldn’t understand.

’I was right. The blast didn’t happen at 11, and Alice and her friend made this plan. Jameson must have found out about their plan and made this plan,’ Ryder thought.

"Tell me everything that happened from the beginning," he asks the man to get the information from him.

"I received a call 2 hours ago. He told me to kill a girl and said that it’s the best opportunity as the girl doesn’t have her guards today. He also sent me a photo of the girl on my phone. You can already imagine after that. I regret agreeing to do this, and I will seriously leave and never come back if you don’t hurt me," he told Ryder.

’Well, his target wasn’t Alice, but he still put her in danger. That Jameson is proving to be a troublemaker today. It’s the second time already. I’ll have to meet him myself,’ Ryder thought.

"Where can I find Jameson? Is he here today?" Ryder inquired.

"No. From what I know, he is out of the city. I don’t know which city he went to, though."

"Give me Jameson’s number."

"A-alright. His number is 192677277541."

"Can I leave now? I already told you everything I know," the Man told Ryder as he looked around.

He was hoping for someone to come so that Ryder would be forced to hide his gun, but no one was coming.

"I’ll let you leave, but first, I need to check if you have any other weapon. I don’t want to let you go only to be shot from behind."

"You can check. I only have one knife, and that’s also folded right now. You can take that if you want."

Ryder shook his head.

"Are you really telling me to check you here? The girls are right behind. What will they think about me? Come there," he said as he pointed towards the wall on the side.

There was just a single wall there that was more like an art piece that had a beautiful nature painting.

The great thing was that the wall was within the 100 meter proxy of the girls so that he wouldn’t fail his mission either.

"Alright," the man nodded his head.

The man walked towards the wall, and Ryder followed behind him.

They got behind the wall.

"First, give me that knife."

Ryder asked for his knife as soon as he got there.

The man agreed and took the knife out of his pocket and gave it to Ryder.

Ryder put the gun in his storage space and walked closer to the man.

The man thought that Ryder was coming closer to check on him, but Ryder’s hand closed his mouth, whereas Ryder’s other hand thrust his knife in the man’s heart.

As soon as Ryder thrust his knife in the man’s chest, a short scene flashed before his eyes.

He felt as if he had thrust a sword in someone’s chest. He didn’t know who that person was as he didn’t see the face, but he had a feeling that it was a girl. His heart ached a little.

The scene finished as soon as it appeared. In fact, it seemed as if it only lasted for the blink of an eye before it ended.

Ryder’s hand was still on the Man’s face, whose eyes were open wide. His breathing had stopped, and he had died instantly.
