Divinity: Against The Godly System Chapter 11

He looked to the other side and saw his previous guildmates sitting on the chairs. They were cheering for him. Max Lee was there as well.
He wanted to go kill Max and Maya, but he realized that he was in a dream and that wouldn't change anything.
"Ahh. Can I ask you something?" Alice suddenly said to him as she glanced at him with a curious look on her face.
"Yes, You can ask me anything! Speak your heart's desires," Ryder said to Alice.
Alice opened her cherry blossom lips and said something that he least expected.
"How long do you plan to sleep? Food is ready."
"Huh?"
Ryder was stunned. He couldn't understand what was happening in his beautiful dream. Was he hungry and subconsciously manipulating this dream?
"Hey! How long are you going to sleep! Dinner is ready!" She said again.
The dream suddenly broke as Ryder opened his eyes only to find Alice standing in front of him.
"The food is on the table. Go eat yourself." She said before she left the room.
"Sigh, what a weird dream," Ryder sighed as he stood up.
"Well, Since she made me dinner, I might as well go and eat it. I'm quite hungry anyways. It has been a long time since I last ate the food made by her," He said as he reminisced about her food in the previous timeline.
Alice had left for China for her higher studies after completing the University in the previous timeline. So in reality, it had been around 2 years since he ate the food made by her.
He left the room and walked towards the dining room.
After he finished eating the food, he sat on the chair and began thinking about what to do next.

'The day will be over soon and I would only have one day to kill a person. I'll do it tonight. I can't leave this for the last moment. It's about her life after all!'
He stood up and left the house without informing Alice.
The city streets were almost empty, and only a few cars could be seen coming and going.
He walked for a long time before he finally saw a person. It was an old woman that looked like she was coming from shopping.
Ryder gazed at her for a brief moment before he shook his head.
'I can't kill an old lady! Fuck, I can't even kill an animal, let alone a human! I don't even know what I'm trying to do ' He thought as he kept walking.
After some time, he finally came up with a plan.
"Since I have no choice, I would use this opportunity for the good of the world. I'd clean the streets of the criminals," He made up his mind as he walked towards a certain direction.
There was a place in the city known as Bucky's Club. It was a bar that was located on the 67th street of the Northern part of the city. The bar was mostly used by gangsters and criminals.
It was said that the Mafia ran the bar, but the police didn't care for it.
He had decided to search for his prey at that location.
Normally he wouldn't even think about going to a place like that, let alone actually go there to kill a criminal, but after eating 2 strengthening pills and increasing his strength by 125%, he felt like he could take care of himself.
He even learned the Lower Martial arts Technique from the system's store. Unless the person straight away started shooting, he felt like he could succeed.

" I have to succeed. Not for myself, but for Alice," He muttered with a determined look on his face.
Although he was acting confident, there was still some hesitation in his heart along with some anxiousness.
The 67th street was neither too close to his house nor too far. It took him around an hour of walking to get there.
As soon as he stepped on the street, he was able to see the bar. Three bulky people were standing outside the bar talking to each other.
"Alright, how should I handle it?" He wondered as he stood on the 67th street.
He was about to take a step forward and walk towards the bar when he suddenly heard the scream of a woman. It came from the opposite side.
He hurriedly turned back and ran in the direction that scream came from.
"Please don't do it! Let me go, I beg you!" Came the voice of a woman again.

Beneath No Sky: Chronicles of the Atmospheric Sector
After bringing themselves back from the brink of annihilation, humanity's future seemed bleak. However, it's remnants, throwing aside the old order and donning a new mantle of progress aimed to rise above their ancient disputes and go forward as one. Once the Earth reached it's natural limit, and colonies around Terra and Luna had shown promising results, humanity finally decided to make the move to the stars. Believing this to be the start of a new age, they eagerly poured across the solar system and further beyond, greeting what space had to offer with hope and optimism. It was misplaced, however, for humanity's traditional quarrels soon resurfaced and engulfed a now interplanetary empire of many races.As the Earth Empire burned and an intense depression overtook the once optimistic people, some held out hope. They theorized that their problems were born of an inherent sense of home and, in order to rid humanity, now comprising of the Terrans as well as all the other known species of the galaxy, of this burden, decided to move far away from civilized space, into uncharted depths, to start anew. Some 200 years have passed since then, and those hopeful ones have finally found a place to settle on. Firmly planting their flag in paradise, they called this untouched land "Eden" and declared the beginning of a true new age, the age of After Eden.Trouble, however, seemed to still be hounding them, as barely three years after its founding, Eden finds itself at war with a seemingly uncommunicative and uncompromising enemy that far outclasses the odd pirates they were used to facing. A new era of peace, marked by an immediate conflict. Time will tell if Eden, the Grand Experiment, truly is as great as it's supposed to be. ---------------------------------------- This is a sci-fi, character driven, military space drama. Multiple POV protagonists and lots of unnecessary detail. Somewhat psychological. My first work on this website.
