Divinity: Against The Godly System

Chapter 373: Adrian Caught

’ After getting the papers, I only need to get the guild token, and it can be established,’ Ryder thought as he glanced at the empty ground in front of him where Master Planner had helped in establishing his Guild in the Original Timeline.

This timeline was going to be different enough since he had already stolen the Princess who was going to be with Master Planner in the previous timeline.

Ryder turned back and walked towards the market.

"There are some good Shops in the city where you can buy equipment. Do you want to go and see?" Princess Aslina inquired as she pointed towards a specific direction.

"Equipment Store? Yeah, they will have some equipment for adventures; however, the equipment will be Commons Grade. At best, we will find Silver Grade Equipment, which will be too expensive already," Ryder replied, shaking his head.

"Don’t worry about expenses. I’ll afford one equipment for you. Any that you want," Aslina said to Ryder, thinking that he was worried about the price.

"Ah no. Price isn’t a big deal. The problem is that the equipment is useless for me at this point. I already have a higher grade of equipment," Ryder muttered as he smiled. He patted Aslina’s head. "Thanks for the thought, though."

’Wait, I don’t know if Shu got nice equipment or not. I should ask him. If he doesn’t have a Silver Grade Artifact, I can use Aslina’s offer to get one for him.’ Ryder suddenly thought as he remembered that he was on his way to meet Shu after being done here.

He felt like bringing a treasure for Shu would be good since they were about to go on a severe mission after that.

" Can you wait here for a minute? I think I saw something there," Ryder said as he pointed towards the empty ground.

Releasing Aslina’s hand, he walked further away from her.

Opening his message box of Divinity, he messaged Shu, who seemed to be the only person in his friend list in Divinity.

"Shu, what’s the grade of your treasures?"

Ryder sent a message to Shu before he came back to Aslina.

Holding her hand again, he continued walking through the city

"Aslina, there’s something else I needed to talk to you about." Ryder started talking after walking through the city for half an hour.

"What do you want to say? You want to leave again? Do you even need my permission for that?" Aslina replied as she chuckled, hiding the sadness in her eyes.

"How do you know?" Ryder asked Aslina, surprised how she knew he was leaving.

"I got a feeling from the way you were talking to me inside the Palace," Aslina replied, lowering her head.

"Yeah, I need to leave again for some important work. I had managed to finish my first mission, but another mission still exists for me. I need to finish it before I can create a guild here," Ryder replied, vaguely.

"Will you stay here for a day at least?" Aslina asked Ryder.

"Yeah, that’s why I came here. To spend time with you before I leave since I haven’t spent much time with you," Ryder replied in full sincerity.

"It’s good. Stay at the Royal Palace tonight. You can leave tomorrow," Aslina told Ryder.

"That sounds good." Ryder nodded his head as he started walking back towards the Royal Palace with Aslina.

"Do you think you can tell father before you leave this time, or should I tell him after you leave like last time?" Aslina inquired as to if she had thought about something.

" Your father would kill me if I left without telling him this time. I’ll tell him before I leave," Ryder replied as he smiled wryly.

He was walking with Aslina when she got a notification of a message.

Opening his inbox, he saw a message from Shu, who used the Username of Bigdaddy.

Opening the message, he was stunned.

"That guy already has gold grade equipment? How? Did they insert real-world currency transactions? Ah, no. He must have paid outside the game to get these from the stronger Players that got these items. It’s either that or he found these items himself," Ryder muttered, trying to understand how Shu had such high-level items already.

If one was to grade treasures in levels, Gold Grade Treasure was a grade three while bronze rank treasure was rank 1.

For Shu to already possess Rank three items, it was already very good.

"I’m on my way. I should be there the day after tomorrow." Ryder sent another message to Shu before he closed the inbox.

He entered the Palace with Aslina.

"Stay here. I’ll go talk to your Father," Ryder told Aslina before he entered the Royal Hall, leaving Aslina outside.

As the door was closed, she couldn’t hear what was happening inside, but she hoped that her father wouldn’t be angry.

Time kept passing slowly, and soon, twenty minutes were over

Unable to bear the thoughts of what bad things might be happening to Ryder, Aslina decided to enter herself.

She reached out her hand to push the door open; however, before her hand could touch the door, it opened on its own.

She found Ryder standing on the other side of the door. Holding Aslina’s hand, Ryder started walking away.

"What happened inside? Are you fine?" She asked Ryder.

"Of Course, I’m fine. What would happen to me?" Ryder asked, smiling.

"Did Father scold you?" Aslina inquired.

"Did he scold me? What do you think?" Ryder asked in return without answering.

"I don’t know. Maybe he scolded you a little," Aslina answered.

"Hahaha, whatever that scolding was, it was definitely not little. He scolded me for over an hour before he finally gave me the permission to leave," Ryder answered as he started laughing.

"I’m sorry," Aslina apologized with an embarrassed look on her face.

"Hey, why are you apologizing, you Idiot. You didn’t do anything," Ryder objected.

"If you hadn’t met me, you would be free to do anything without getting scolded," the girl replied with an apologetic look on her face.

"You Idiot, if I hadn’t met you, I would have missed out on so much," Ryder answered, thinking how he would’ve missed out on the support of a Kingdom to establish his guild. "So don’t think nonsense. I’m glad that I met you and that’s the only thing you need to know."

"Alright," Aslina replied.

The day passed away as Ryder stayed with Aslina, talking and trying to get even closer to her. The two of them only left each other when it was night.

Ryder was provided a room inside the Place. Entering the room, he sat on the bed.

"I wonder where Rale is. He shouldn’t be inside the Palace. He’ll be staying outside all night long. I hope he’s sensible enough to get a hotel room," Ryder muttered as he opened his system screen to logout.

"I already found a room."

Just as Ryder was about to two on the log-out option, he heard a voice from behind him.

Looking back, he saw Rale standing there.

"Ah, you’re already here. Did someone see you?" Ryder inquired with a frown.

"No, they’re too weak to be able to see and catch me. I wasn’t seen at all," Rale replied, shaking his head.

" Fine. Stay here for tonight. Make sure that no one sees you. I’ll sleep inside my special realm," Ryder told Rale before he tapped on the logout button and disappeared.

Ryder woke up in the real world. Taking the glasses off, he sat up.

Getting off the bed, he went to shower. After getting fresh and showering, he left the room.

Entering his whirlwind, he raced towards the HQ of ACL, where he was supposed to meet Herriet to discuss the contract he sent.

Parking his car, he entered the building.

He was allowed to go inside as the workers of the ACL recognized Ryder. They were also told to allow Ryder to enter when he came.

Ryder stood in front of Herriet’s office and knocked on the door.

"Come on in." Ryder heard a voice from inside. Opening the doors, he stepped inside.

Opening the door, the First King of Dark Uprising stepped inside a building that seemed to be a hotel.

He walked over to a table and stopped in front of a young man.

Adrian Balakin was sitting, eating a burger, when he saw a man coming towards him.

The man sat in front of him without saying anything.

"You’re stronger than the ants here. Are you from the toy Organization that guy calls Dark Uprising? Hah, your boss is a real idiot. Why not just achieve what he wants directly instead of taking such a long route?" Adrian asked as he laughed.

"He wishes to meet you," the First King told Adrian in full seriousness.

"Why should I care for what that guy wants?" Adrian inquired with an amused smile on his face.
