Divinity: Against The Godly System

Chapter 572: Facing Julien

Ryder and Itsuki drove through the empty roads.

Since Itsuki was the one who was showing Ryder the direct, Ryder stayed behind. After a long time, Itsuki stopped the car.

Ryder also stopped as he stepped out of the car.

"Why did you stop here?" Ryder asked as he walked to Itsuki, who had also stepped out of the car.

"Because this is the end. This is where Julien finishes his trip before he starts driving back. This is the entire route. You understood it?" Itsuki asked Ryder.

"I think I understand," Ryder agreed.

"That’s good. So where do you want to intercept him?" Itsuki asked.

"I think the last intersection would be the best point. You come from there, and I’ll start from here. Instead of chasing after him, I want to be here when he comes," Ryder answered.

"I’m fine with that. So this is what we’ll do. I’ll inform you if something goes wrong."

"Now that we have the route and the plan, all we need is to wait for Saturday. Let’s go back," Itsuki stepped inside the car as he started it.

Ryder also stepped back to his car as he started it.

As they started going back, Ryder was in the lead, unlike before, but it seemed like Itsuki wanted to retake the lead.

He soon crossed Ryder’s car as he took the lead.

"I already gave you the lead once. If you want again, you’ll need to earn it! You want a race; you’ll get a race!"

Ryder also pressed his foot on the pedal as he also increased his speed, catching up. He again took the lead.

Itsuki burst into laughter as he realized what Ryder wanted. He also got in the mood to race.

And thus began the race as two of the world’s fastest cars raced to take the lead on the empty roads of Germany.

The race only stopped when the two of them got in a crowded area. At that point in time, Ryder happened to be in the lead.

The two of them reached the hotel again.

As two expensive cars stopped in front of this middle class hotel, they attracted many eyes. Many people wondered what such rich guys were doing in such a mediocre hotel? If they could afford such cars, they could easily have gotten a seven-star hotel.

Under many watchful gazes, Ryder and Itsuki stepped out of their cars as they stepped inside the hotel. Without caring for the others, they walked to their rooms, talking with each other.

"You’re pretty good at this. I didn’t think you would be able to catch up to me in the end, but not only that, you even took the lead. Pretty good," Itsuki told Ryder as he was defeated.

"You weren’t half bad yourself," Ryder lazily answered.

...

Days kept passing as Ryder and Itsuki started finalizing their plans to the second. In fact, they even took a trip to the place where they were going to intercept once again.

Soon, it was the day where everything was going to go down.

Ryder and Itsuki woke up early. It was only four in the morning when they woke up and got dressed.

Most of the city was still sleeping when these two youngsters sat in their expensive cars and got to work.

Itsuki took his position near the intersection where he was going to separate the two subordinates of Julien and him.

"I’ll message you as soon as they come. Stay in your position," Itsuki told Ryder, who was sitting in his car near Itsuki.

Ryder departed and reached the end of the road, where he waited for the message from Itsuki.

As Ryder started getting bored, his uncertainty was increasing. He wondered if he really had what it took to kill the son of a god without any items of tricks.

"This is going to be my first proper fight without any tricks. Janus, what are the chances of me winning?" He asked Janus himself.

"Mediocre," Janus answered without a single care.

"What do you mean?" Ryder asked, confused.

"Your chances are mediocre. They aren’t too good, but they aren’t too bad either. You have the potential, but how you use that, it depends on you," Janus answered Ryder.

"Can’t you just give me a number? Out of ten, what are my chances of killing him successfully?" Ryder inquired again, smiling wryly.

"Six," Janus answered.

"And what are the chances of my death in this battle?" Ryder asked again.

"Zero," Janus answered.

"Oh right, I forgot. I’m immortal. Why am I even worrying? If I don’t succeed, I’ll come back stronger and better," Ryder let out, hitting his head lightly.

Time continued passing and soon another hour passed. Ryder was standing outside his car, looking at the clock.

"This is when he leaves his mansion. He should be on the way now. Soon, he’ll be here."

As Ryder walked back and forth on his spot, Itsuki was keeping an eye on the road as he kept sitting in the car. Unlike Ryder, he couldn’t take a walk outside as his role was very important.

Soon, ten minutes passed, and he finally saw a Koenigsegg coming from the distance.

"That’s Julien," Itsuki let out as he started the car. His timing needed to be perfect.

Two other cars were following Julien, keeping their distance.

It didn’t take long before Julien drove past the intersection. That was also the moment when Itsuki’s Ferrari reached there, blocking the path for the two cars that were following behind.

The two subordinates of Itsuki hastily pressed breaks as they saw a car suddenly appear before them. Fortunately, their cars stopped on time before they could hit Itsuki’s car.

The doors of the two cars opened as two handsome men stepped out.

"You crazy lazy! Can’t you drive? How can you get in the middle like that?"

"You’re lucky you aren’t dead with this kind of driving! Now step back and let me pass!"

The two men scolded the woman who was sitting in the car before them. They looked as angry as they could be, but they didn’t become violent.

Itsuki also opened the door of his Ferrari as he stepped out.

"I could have died, but you would certainly die," Itsuki said as he clapped once. Thousands of Itsuki’s appeared all around the two men, circling them

Looking around, the two men looked shocked as they saw what was happening.

"Who are you!" One of them yelled.

"Me? You can call me death!" All the Itsuki’s said at the same time as they started running towards the two men.

"Get ready to face the enemy!"

The two men didn’t fear. Instead, they got ready to face all the Itsuki’s.

....

Julien was driving without a single care in the world. He didn’t even know that his two men were intercepted by Itsuki.

It didn’t take long before he also had to hit break as he saw a car standing before him, blocking the path.

Frowning, Julien stepped out of the car as he looked behind.

"Where are they?"

It was only now that he realized that his men weren’t there.

"They’re too slow. I’ll handle it myself," he said as he walked towards the Bugatti that had blocked the road.

Soon, he reached the car. He tried to look through the window to see if someone was inside the car. Not a single person was there, it seemed.

"Strange. No one is inside. And no one is here too? Which idiot left his car in the middle of the road?"

"Don’t you know it’s bad manners to call someone an idiot?"

Just as Julien was talking to himself, a voice came out of nowhere.

Frowning, Julien looked up to notice where it was coming from.

As he looked up, he saw Ryder flying in the sky.

"Who are you?" Julien asked, not being intimidated. In fact, he didn’t even care that a stranger was flying in the sky. He didn’t care if it was a trap. He just had that much self confidence in himself. To him, his answers were more important.

"Who am I? I think he’ll tell you that," Ryder said, smirking.

Curious, Julien looked behind to be shocked as he saw a creature that seemed like it was a tree that came to life. That wasn’t all. He also saw this tree creature’s punch coming towards him.

It seemed like it was too late. He couldn’t dodge or stop the attack.

Even though it seemed impossible to dodge, Julien didn’t even try to. He didn’t even flinch at this surprise attack as he let it land on his body.

The punch landed on Julien, making him fly. He hit many trees before he finally crashed on the ground.

Julien soon stood up, patting his clothes. There was no expression on his face.

In fact, he still didn’t attack. He didn’t even look angry. He simply glanced at Ryder before he asked, "Happy?"

"Now tell me who you are."
