Divinity: Against The Godly System Chapter 264

" I know that the topic of Lucifer is really serious, and we need to find him at all cost, but even though he's accessing Divinity without our permission, I don't think he can break any rules of Divinity that are set by us. From what we saw, all the rules set in Divinity are affecting him. He won't be able to do anything out of the box above that. So we don't have to worry urgently. The concern I have is something else entirely," The Second executive said.
"That's true as well, but I don't like any abnormalities," The dark-haired man said as he nodded his head. He looked back at the red-haired man. " I still want him found, and I believe you will keep your words. You have one month."
The red-haired man couldn't help but smile wryly as he nodded his head.
The dark-haired man looked back at the second executive and asked again.
"What is your concern? Speak," he asked.
" It's about what we are going to do in the future. The involvement of real-world money in divinity. Are you sure that it's a good idea to leave it all on that man? Can he even handle it alone?" the second executive asked as he frowned.
"Don't worry about that. I have faith in him. He can easily deal with it. He is the..."
The meeting continued in the office of Necrosis, while Silence ensued outside the building of Necrosis.

The Two FBI agents that were on Ryder's Trail had left his city and arrived in this city as well since the headquarters of the FBI was here. They were going towards the hotel since it was night. They had to report at the office in the morning.

" I'm having second thoughts about it. Is your sister really going to handle it? I still think that you shouldn't involve her in this matter. If that guy is really the person we know him to be, then there are going to be dangers all around him. Your sister might get caught in then. It's dangerous for her. I seriously think we should tell the Chief about it. We don't need to take this matter into our hands. We seriously can't afford the consequences if something goes wrong," Jacob let out as he frowned.
"Don't worry. My sister knows what she is doing. She also knows how to stay away from trouble. She won't involve herself in this matter too close. She will just track his movement and do nothing else. She is an expert in this. I have full faith in her. Also, I do think that Ryder isn't a bad guy. He wouldn't harm her even if something goes wrong. That man could've killed us many times, but he didn't. That's enough for us to know about him. From what I understand, he only kills the ones that are involved with that Bio-Terror Organization," Ray let out, shaking his head.
Jacob looked at Ray and couldn't help but smile wryly.
"What about Pasher? Most likely, Ryder killed him," Jacob let out as he frowned.
"I believe that it must be because Pasher was also involved with the Bio-Terror. We do know that Jameson was linked to the Bio-Terror Member. Also, we heard Pasher talking with him. Pasher was definitely involved in Bio Terror. It sucks that we couldn't catch that guy for this, but it simply means that Ryder is indeed going after the Bio-Terror. He knows more than we think about that Bio Terrorist Organisation. Only through him can we reach the big fishes. Don't worry. We will soon have a lead," Ray let out as he smiled. He believed that trailing Ryder would definitely lead them to the Dark Uprising.

"Sigh, what can we do. Where we get a lead, Ryder appears here and kills our lead," Jacob exclaimed as he laughed.
"Sigh, yeah. That is indeed frustrating but don't forget if he doesn't appear, then we wouldn't be alive. He appeared in Washington and saved so many lives. He appeared outside Jameson's house and saved our life from Riya... wait a minute," Ray was talking about Ryder saving them when he suddenly thought of something.
"What? I know about that look. Did you uncover some mystery?" Jacob asked Ryder.
"Yeah. Jameson... he was related to the Uprising. Also, Ryder appeared outside the house of Jameson that day when he took Riya. Could it be that Jameson... it wasn't suicide but..." Ray let out but didn't finish his sentence.
" But Ryder killed him and made it seem like suicide. That's not tough to believe. In fact, I believe that more than the theory that Jameson was scared of some interrogation and committed suicide," Jacob replied as he nodded his head.
Ray couldn't help but facepalm himself, "That guy! He's killing all out clues!"
After a long time, he sighed.
"What can we do now? It's not like we have any clues left. Now we can only use him to get to clues. Previously, he and we were after the same clues, but now we'll be after him. He can't be faster than us now," Ray let out as he nodded his head.

Everyone was busy with one thing or another. Shu was also busy in matters of his own.
Shu was on the phone with someone, trying to find the history about the girl that Ryder hated. He had heard from Imane during the Karaoke celebration that her boyfriend was a member of Necrosis corporation. He was trying to find more about her boyfriend. He wanted to know what her boyfriend's position was.
Necrosis Corporation kept the information of their engineers a secret. They never disclosed the names of anyone that might have been deeply involved with the creation of Divinity. Shu was hoping to find out about the guy through other measures, and if the guy was indeed an engineer, then he might have been able to get more answers.
"Yeah, Go after Imane. Don't use any extreme means. I want you to find out about her boyfriend from her. Use any methods you can without harming the girl," Shu said in a grim tone.
"Yeah, you can use that method. I don't think that will be considered illegal," Shu continued after he heard a response from the other guy.
After some time, Shu disconnected the call and laid on his bed.
"Sigh, why is this little thing so complicated," Shu muttered as he looked at the Divinity Glasses in his hand.

Back in the Demon Realm, Ryder had opened his eyes as he was informed of the Vampire King's arrival. He stood up.

An Unwilling Monster
In the city of Kholakel, the highlight of the year for the upper classes is the annual monster pacification of the misty woods. Ostensibly it's a culling of the monster population to prevent them encroaching on urban areas, but it's an open secret that it's actually treated as more of a blood sport, the participants competing to score the most kills. After all, why else would the politicians and elites of the city bother to attend personally? Given the intense competition and high-tech weapons and gear in use, one might wonder how the forest has not yet been completely depopulated. As this year's culling approaches, a group of unfortunate children are about to discover the answer first-hand, but thanks to an unexpected twist of fate, one of them will score the chance to play the role of the hunter instead of the prey. This was an attempt at writing something darker than my usual fare. The story I actually ended up with isn't as mean to the MC as I'd originally planned out, to the point that I'm not sure the story deserves the horror/grimdark tags anymore, but this is still an unfair world with unambiguously evil antagonists. Chapters are short to start with, but get longer once the first act is over.
