Divinity: Against The Godly System

Chapter 529: Decision of Janus

"Are you really saying that another god-son is amongst us?" Aluren asked Itsuki.

"I don’t know. I am not sure, but I’ve always had this doubt. I feel some really strange disturbance here. The natural balance of power is often unstable and not in a way which would imply that it’s one of us using," Itsuki answered.

"I always had a feeling that another god is here. But the unbalance is not what it should be when a god uses his power while being present here. It’s similar to a power that’s a bit tame, like us. And I have a clue as to who it might be. I want you to investigate just because I can’t. That person is in your domain," he added.

"Interesting. I’ve been thinking about the same thing related to a pest that has been annoying me here. I did not assume that there was a chance of a god-son coming here. I thought it was more like a person here got the blessing of a god, and now he had some strengths,z Aluren answered as the information about that masked being flashed before his eyes.

The powers that the person showed aren’t something an average person should possess. Moreover, he hadn’t received the powers from him like the Kinga did. So clearly, someone else was messing with him.

"That’s why I’ve been trying to find and catch that person so I can get my answers. If the person you’re talking about is the same, then I’ll interfere. Tell me," Aluren told Itsuki.

"Alright. I’ll send you the information I have about that person. Meet him and confirm if he has the blessing of a god or if he is a god-son himself," Itsuki replied.

"Oh, right. Please don’t send your Kings or other toys to bring him to you. If he is a god-son, your toys will be broken. Go yourself," he added.

"Alright. I’ll handle this personally. I guess it’s finally time to get out of this place and move my hands a bit," Aluren agreed as he gazed at his court, which was filled with twelve kings that were here.

"Alright. I’m sending the information. If it’s a god-son, inform us all as well. Since you might need all of our help," Itsuki reminded Aluren one last time before he disconnected the call.

"All your help?" Aluren muttered as he heard the beeping sound on the phone after the call was disconnected.

" To hell with me if I ever need your help," he said before he kept the phone back.

Beep! Beep!

A notification sound once again attracted his attention. He opened his phone and checked the mail, which seemed to have a PDF file attached.

He tapped the PDF file, which opened, revealing a form that had an image.

The image was the one which Ryder had given when registering his company. It also had other details about him like his name, current address, and his family.

"Hmm? He lives there? Isn’t that where these two faced that masked guy a few times and came back defeated?" Aluren said as he noticed the address of Ryder Flynn.

"Ryder Flynn... I don’t think you remind me of any god-son, but you do seem a bit familiar. Just what is it about you? Are you really the man that has been messing up my trials?" he added as he stood up.

As soon as Aluren stood up, the other Kings also stood up.

"Let’s get going. We need to get somewhere," Aluren told his kings that had already stood up as he continued walking towards the exit with his hands behind his back.

"Ryder Flynn... I guess it’s time we meet face to face. Enough hide and seek."

...

"Oh no..."

Janus was again sitting near the pond, smiling as if he had remembered something funny, when his smile suddenly disappeared as he saw one of the two fishes in the pond change trajectory.

As he realized that, he stood up, stunned.

"This sudden change... He isn’t ready yet. This shouldn’t have happened so fast. If the god-sons get involved, he’ll be at risk. Even if he wins, he will be exposed."

Frowning, Janus started walking back and forth as he lost himself in deep thoughts at the sudden change that had come as a surprise.

He started worrying about what he could do.

"Should I tell him to keep dying again and again so he can go back in time? But even then, what could he do? I was too relaxed. I should have been more careful."

" Since there was no direct threat on him from what I could see, I forgot that threats from normal people are easier to detect, but threats from God-sons always take more time. Changing time again... This seems to be a way out."

"The God of Time doesn’t exist. The only person who still knows as much about time as him is her. The loss of her father is certainly keeping her busy, and she’s not as powerful to know about such things. I think I can pass this under her nose if I’m careful."

"But should I really do it? If I let things happen as they are now, maybe these can fast forward such things. Aluren has the next fragment and one of the most important fragments of the bracelet, which can change the whole game for Ryder."

" If I take the risk and he gets that fragment, things can be pretty smooth from here on. And things will move much faster. Is the risk worth the reward?"

There were many questions in Janus’s mind, but there was a voice in his heart that was telling him to take the risk.

"He will kill me if things went wrong. But I do think the risk is worth it."

Clenching his fist, he had decided that the risk was worth it. It was something he needed to do.

He believed that he could get Ryder prepared for facing Aluren. Ryder was already as strong as a king in that world after absorbing the powers of a being. He only needed a bit more to face off against Aluren.

As for the rewards of victory, he would get one of the most important fragments of the bracelet. Moreover, he would be able to absorb the strength of Aluren to get even stronger.

With that strength, his body would be much stronger. And he would also get some divine energy in his body which would give his body more strength to host his Godly soul without falling apart. And if he killed other god-kings before the gods realized what was happening, the rewards were golden.

As for the risks, that was big as well. If he failed against Aluren, he was going to die. And if he succeeded against Aluren and the gods found out, they would be enraged and come down to earth to see what was happening. That would expose the whole thing.

Rewards and risks were both massive, but Janus felt it was worth it, and thus, he contacted Ryder.

....

Ryder had reached the hotel with Esmi. After a long kissing and foreplay, he was just about to move to the main course.

He was just about to thrust when he stopped as he heard Janus.

"Get your carnal desires fulfilled later. You’re in danger. Get dressed fast," Janus told Ryder.

’What are you talking about? Are you Again messing with me? It’s not the right time, little brother. Please don’t disturb me.’

"I’m not messing. There has been enough messing. It’s time for you to get serious. Twelve Kings are coming to you to kill you. Your identity is exposed. As for how, I don’t know," Janus answered.

Ryder heard the words and frowned.

"Excuse me for a minute. I think I’m not feeling right today. Can we continue later?" Ryder told Esmi as he rolled to the side and got off the bed.

Getting up, he started getting angry.

"I’m extremely sorry. I’ll make it up to you later." Getting dressed, he walked back to Esmi and kissed her gently before he left.

"What the heck?"

Esmi was lying on the bed, naked, wondering what just happened to Ryder. He actually left? Was he really feeling sick?

She sighed as she got up and started getting dressed.

....

Ryder stepped out of the hotel and walked towards his car.

"Alright. Tell me what happened in detail now? How did they find out? And how much do they know?" Ryder asked as he stepped inside the car.

"I don’t know how they found out."

Janus knew how they found out, but he lied since he knew that if he told Ryder the truth, he would go back in time and change the past. He would obviously choose the easy route instead of choosing the route which had more risks yet more rewards as well.

"They know everything about you. The Kings aren’t a concern, but their leader is a mess. You need to strengthen yourself to have a chance to take him on," Janus told Ryder.
