Divinity: Against The Godly System Chapter 419

"I'll call you later," Ryder let out as he disconnected the call after he saw his target leaving the headquarters.
He kept the phone in his pocket before he got ready to jump down.
He walked to the other side of the roof and jumped down where no one was supposed to see him. He walked all around the building to get to the main road where the car was supposed to pass from.
He started waiting on the corner of the street. He had already removed the mask by now since he didn't need that anymore.
The man who Ryder was waiting for, entered his car and left the vicinity. He drove towards where Ryder was standing.
At the sight of the car, a grin formed on Ryder's face. He could see the blonde man driving the car.
He hurriedly walked on the road as if he was in a hurry to get to the other side. He made his timing just perfect so he would be right before the car, almost hitting it.
The blonde man was driving at regular speed; however, he didn't know that right at the end moment, a man was going to jump before him.
He hastily pressed the break, which still wasn't enough to stop the car on time. The bonnet of the car touched the knees of Ryder, hitting him.
Ryder rolled over the car, falling behind it.
"Fuck!" The blonde man cursed as he stepped out of the car to check up on Ryder.
"Are you fine?" He asked Ryder, who fortunately seemed uninjured.
"Ah, I'm fine. I don't think I'm hurt," Ryder replied as he smiled apologetically. He stood up and waved his hand, gesturing that he was fine.
"Hmph, next time, walk more carefully. I don't want to have to deal with dead bodies outside my field of work."
After hearing that Ryder was fine, the blonde man stopped focusing on Ryder.
He warned him a little before he turned back. He entered his car and left.
Watching the car leave, Ryder smiled as he crossed the road.
"Don't worry. You won't be dealing with dead bodies. I will be the one dealing," Ryder muttered softly as he smirked.
The blonde man didn't know that the accident was fully planned by Ryder with only one goal. The goal was to place a tracker on the car so he could know the house of the guy. He couldn't beat the man in public. As for chasing the car, that was another tough job with a rare probability of success. So he formulated this plan.

Now that the tracker was placed, he could simply wait for the night to get to work and start the new day as the Blonde haired man.
After placing the tracker, he started relaxing. He went to a small restaurant nearby to have a light meal since he hadn't eaten anything while waiting since the morning.
He ordered a burger and a few French Fries to go along with it. He also had a glass of coffee.
Even after that, he still felt a little hungry, so he continued ordering. Only when he was satisfied did he stand up. He paid the bill along with the tip before he left the place.
He checked the location of the car once again, which was finally showing to be stable.
"Looks like he's finally home. Better start now," Ryder muttered as he started walking towards the location that the tracker was showing.
He took a cab along the way, which he used to drop him at a mall near the location. From there, he walked on foot and soon reached a big house.
The tracker was showing this house, meaning the car was somewhere inside in the parking lot; however, he couldn't be sure since the doors were closed and there was a guard at the door. There was also a security camera placed there, which Ryder worked hard to avoid.
The house was a 3-floor building which seemed like it could very well belong to more than one people. There wasn't any other way to enter except from the main entrance.
The walls were too high for any normal man to jump, leaving only one path to enter, which was secured.
Fortunately for Ryder, he wasn't a normal man, so he didn't need to take the risk of trying to infiltrate through the main path. He could easily pass through any wall no matter how tall it was as long as he hadn't used all his flying time. It was proving to be a really useful ability for sneaking inside.
He once again walked to the less guarded side of the house carefully before he covered his face with the same mask.
He flew straight up and landed on the wall that surrounded the house. After looking around, he flew straight to the balcony of the house, which had a glass window.

He tried opening the window, but it happened to be locked, leaving him no other option but to use the various gadgets that he had purchased. As he was more and more involved in breaking in, he had decided to buy the items normally instead of using his Origin Points in the system store.
He had brought a laser pen that was capable of cutting the glass. He turned on the pen, which released a red laser, which was later used by Ryder to cut the glass of the window.
He cut the glass in a rectangular shape. After cutting the glass, he used the gloves with suction to pull out the piece of glass that was cut. He placed the glass to the side before he entered the house.
As soon as he entered, the first thing he did was to check for cameras to see if there was anything like that there.
He didn't find any cameras in the room or the hallway outside.
He walked inside the empty-looking house, trying to find the man. The entire house was brightly lit, but no one could be seen.
Ryder could also see dirt on the ground as if there wasn't a servant to clean the place.
He was getting confused. Was it the right place, or was it some temporary meeting place where the guy was meeting someone else?
He searched the entire floor but didn't find anyone. There was furniture, but it didn't seem like it was used in a long time.
He soon reached the stairs using which he went to the ground floor. It was only then did he find something.
A door was open, and he could hear some noise coming from inside.
He brought a tranquilizer gun from his inventory and got ready to shoot the man if he saw. He slowly walked towards the room.
Entering the room, he soon found the guy he was looking for. The man seemed like he was looking for something in a safe that was embedded in the wall.
From the back view, Ryder was sure that the man was the one he was looking for. He had blonde hair and the same height. He was also wearing the same clothes.
Ryder aimed his gun before he pulled the trigger.
The tranquilizer hit the neck of the man, who had a painful grunt. He opened his mouth, but no voice came out of his mouth. The effects of the tranquilizer were so fast that he couldn't even turn back to see who had hit him. His vision went blurry before he dropped to the ground.
Ryder stepped forward and turned the guy over to see his face. He wanted to make sure he got the right guy.
"Yeah. He is the same," Ryder muttered as he picked up the unconscious man over his shoulders.
He walked upstairs with the man on his shoulders.
He walked to the top floor and dropped the man on the ground.
He tried to find a wire to tie the man. Even though he was unable to find a wire, he did find a rope. He used the rope to tie the hands of the man properly. He knew that man was probably an agent, so he might have ways of untying himself; that's why Ryder took proper precautions.
After tying the man, he started waiting for him to wake up. The tranquilizer effects weren't long lasting, so they started wearing off after an hour. The blonde man slowly opened his eyes as he looked around.
It took him a brief moment to be able to see clearly since his vision was blurry when he woke up.
Aas his vision cleared, he saw a man standing in front of him. The man was wearing what seemed like the mask of an animated character.
"Who are you?" He asked, confused.
"Hmm?" He soon realized that his hands and feet were tied.
"Are you a thief? Do you know who you are dealing with here? I'm warning you. Free me and leave or you don't know how you might suffer," he threatened Ryder.
In his mind, Ryder was probably a thief who was looking for valuables.

The World Below
A place of myth and mystery, the Below is spoken of by few with any real consideration, and fewer with any true belief. After all, a realm filled with magic and monstrosities beyond imagining would be ridiculous, especially existing beneath one's very feet. Someone would have found it by now, through science, even if rumor dictated that it was able to "choose" who entered it. More wishful magic nonsense. ...Right?

The more she pursued her lost love, the more question she faced and the people who were close to her are not what they appear to be. Even in exile, her constant bedmate would not stop. Now, being hunted, embroiled in an age-old conspiracy, torn apart by various factions, how is a lone drow to survive? Of course, by doing what she did best, raising an army. For the dark-elf Matrons have a nasty habit of not staying down when knocked. They rise up again and come back with fury. ===== Series Info======= The world-building is a combination of DnD, Pathfinder and Elderscrolls. Though I prefer to take a few liberties if possible. The yuri/GL Is an extremely slow burn one and the focus is more on the relationship dynamics than romance. =====Author Notes===== This is my first writing attempt, and in the spirit of full disclosure, I am not a native English speaker and I am hoping to use this chance to improve my writing. Constructive criticisms are always welcome. I have a full-time job but I would try to keep the releases consistent.
