Divinity: Against The Godly System Chapter 586

"All I know is that they are people that want to cause War. And I want to stop them or at least do something to keep our people safe. Anyway, that's all for today. I need to be in my room for something. I'll see you later," Ryder let out as he started running since he realized that he was getting late.
He was going to miss the flight. He went into his room and locked the door before he logged out.
Waking up in the real world, he sighed in relief as he realized that he was still on time, fortunately.
He could at least take a shower without missing the flight. He got the shower before getting prepared and left the hotel.
He already had a cab waiting for him at the entrance, which took him to the airport.
After the initial checking, he was able to enter the flight where he had booked a business class seat to Russia.
He sat alone on the flight, which started going to Russia. Within a couple of hours, the flight landed in Moscow, where he was supposed to find Adrian. But there was also a problem.
He also remembered that there was one problem that he hadn't thought about. Itsuki was famous, so finding his address was easy.
He owned multiple companies, after all. On the other hand, how was he going to get to Adrian? All I heard was that the guy was in Moscow.
"Janus, help me. Where is that guy staying? Can I get his address?" Ryder asked as he stepped out of the airport.
He didn't book a cab and simply brought the sports car out of his inventory after finding an empty location.
"I don't know. Unlike the others, he doesn't have a certain place where he stays. As for finding his current location, I'll need to come there personally, which I can't. So you're on your own," Janus replied as he placed all the burden on Ryder.
"Come on! Of all the countries, you only found Russia to place all the burden of finding someone on me? Do you even know how big this place is?" Ryder asked as he sat in the car, not knowing where to go.
"I can't help with this. All I know is his last location that I noticed when I was there," Janus replied.

"Fine. Tell me that. Even that will be enough," Janus said as he sighed.
"Open your Deity Phone," Janus said. "The location will be there."
"That's much better. I can find about him there at least," Ryder said as he turned on the Deity Phone to see the location. On the other hand, he activated his real phone in which he opened the route accordingly.
As he now had a proper route, he started driving towards that red dot.
"Wait, I forgot one more thing. I don't have Russian money. How will I get petrol in this thing?" He said as he noticed the car slowly running out.
"It seems like I'll have to do something about money first," he muttered as he stopped the car and stepped out.
"I feel bad doing this, but what can I say? I have no choice," he said, justifying himself as he walked over to someone who seemed like a businessman, sitting in his car.
As the car windows were closed, Ryder had to knock on the window to get the attention of the man inside, who seemed to be busy in smoking.
The man lowered the glass as he asked, "What do you want?"
Even though the man talked in Russian, Ryder heard it in English since he had specially learned a skill from the system that helped him understand and speak all languages.
"Look into my eyes," Ryder softly said as he started using the hypnosis again that he had used on the worker of Itsuki.
"Worked like a charm," He let out a smile as he noticed that it had worked.
"Give me all the cash you have," Ryder commanded the man.
The man brought his wallet out of his pocket and brought one coin out of it as he gave it to Ryder.
"What nonsense, do you think I'm a beggar?" Ryder asked, frowning. "If you don't have cash, then get some out. The ATM is right there."
"Don't bring too much money. I only want..."
As Ryder commanded the man, he left the car and walked to the ATM, from where he brought a bundle of cash which he gave to Ryder.
"That's right. You'll forget everything that happened in the last ten minutes and return to normal after one minute," Ryder told the man as he took the money before he started leaving.

Entering his car, Ryder left.
He stopped at a petrol station and got the car filled up as he paid in cash.
Getting the car on the road, he got en-route to the red spot on the map.
After driving for half an hour, he finally ended up at the place where this point was showing.
"This place? He was in this University?" Ryder let out, frowning.
"Now that I thought about it, isn't this the University that Alice applied to? The man that had come to kidnap Alice also pretended to be from this place. It doesn't seem wrong. The Dean of this place should know about it too," he said as he parked the car. It doesn't matter if this was a university; he needed to check.
He parked the car outside and walked inside the University on foot. He wasn't stopped or even checked.
"The atmosphere of this place isn't bad, just like any other University. Not bad at all," he observed as he noticed the surroundings. Youngsters could be seen playing games. Some could be seen walking with books in their hands while others were just sitting and talking.
Ryder approached one of the students.
"Excuse me. Can you tell me where the Dean's office is?" he asked the young man he had approached.
The young man smiled as he nodded. "You want to go to the Dean? Walk straight from here and climb the stairs to go to the second floor. Remember, don't take the lift!"
"After you're there, turn right and walk to the end of the corridor. There will be his office," the man told Ryder.
"Thanks," Ryder responded as he left.
Just as he was informed, he didn't take the lift and climbed the stairs as he walked to the second floor from where he turned right and walked to the end.
As Ryder reached the end, his face twitched in frustration. The place he ended up at was none other than the ladies toilet.
"That annoying guy. He didn't find anything else to pull this prank? Just you wait bro. If I ever saw you again, you'll regret it," Ryder muttered. He was just about to turn around to leave when the door opened, and a woman stepped out.
As she stepped out, she saw Ryder looking at her.
"What the hell are you doing here? Men's toilet is on the other side," the woman told Ryder, frowning.
"I'm sorry, I was looking for the office of Dean. Someone outside told me it was here. It seems like someone pulled a childish prank on me. Can you tell me where the Dean's office is?" Ryder asked the girl.
"Ah, there are some who love to pull the prank on the visitors. Don't worry; you aren't far off. The Dean's office is on the third floor. You can ask anyone there; they'll point you in the right direction," the woman told Ryder before she left.
"Thanks."
Ryder went upstairs and asked another student on the third floor as to where the Dean's office was.
It was only now that he was taken to the Dean's office.
"That's his office." The students who escorted Ryder here told him.
"Thanks," Ryder said again as he knocked on the door.
"Come on in," came a voice from the inside.
Ryder opened the door and stepped inside to find a person sitting on the floor.
"Yes?" the man who was sitting behind the table asked. "What do you need?"
"I need Adrian. Where is he?" Ryder said as he casually stepped forward.
Hearing the name of Adrian, the man stood up only to notice that Ryder had disappeared.
Ryder appeared behind the Dean, grabbing him by the throat before he smashed his head on the table, breaking it.
"From your reaction, it's clear you know him. Don't pretend or act now. Tell me where he is, or the next time it won't be the table that breaks but your head," Ryder said, frowning.
"Who are you?" the man asked Ryder, still not answering.
"Why do you want to know? Do you have an intention of marrying your daughter to me? I'm not interested. Just tell me where that Adrian is," Ryder said as he raised the man in the air. After absorbing three god-sons, his strength was not weak at all.

Galactic Fist of Legend
In the year 2018 a bright star appeared near Earth. Humanity as a whole was briefly introduced to a race of beings far beyond their understanding. During that brief interaction a proclamation was made, Defeat the Grand Emissary or become the eternal slaves of those who had arrived at Earth. The only chance for victory was for people all across the globe to make a choice. When prompted to become a champion and a play a bizarre game of life or death they could choose yes or no. Those who chose no, went about their lives afterward. All memory of the event was lost despite the fact that their very existence as a free species hung by a single thread. Will those who said yes manage to survive the horror of the game and become strong enough to defeat the Grand Emissary. Can one of them become... The Galactic Fist of Legend. Also, it's a comedy. Pretty obvious, right? Notes: This story will contain graphic violence, stupid humor, nudity, sexiness, and maybe I'll give the main character a pet cat or something. I don't know yet. Still, you need to be pretty mature to properly take care of a pet. Notes2: This story is my answer to stories such as Gantz, Terror Infinity, Battle Royale, Btoom!, and strangely enough... Captain N: The Video Game Master. It is an original story, but it does seek to give a similar vibe to some of those tales of legend. However, it is not meant to be an overly serious tale as I have decided that the new stories that I release in the coming year will be mostly comedies.

Leftover Apocalypse
[Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] This is a story about the newly-adult Calliope Smith having a terrible day that ends in her getting mysteriously teleported from Phoenix, Arizona to a fantasy world where her life is in constant danger. She considers this an upgrade. Someone evil is looking for her, and she doesn't know why. Someone who seems to know a lot about her has promised they'll help her, but she doesn't know who they are. All that matters to Callie is that magic is real and one way or another she's going to learn it. The end of the world is coming up, sure, but Callie won't need to worry about that. In fact, by the time she even finds out about it one of the doomsday devices will already be destroyed, and the authorities will be well on the way to dealing with the other one. It's fine. Everything will be smooth sailing. Almost certainly. Probably. Chapters are usually about 2500-3500 words, and the goal is to post 2-3 per week but I sometimes get busy or have some writers block. It's your standard portal fantasy / Isekai premise, but unlike some the main character's time on Earth and how she got pulled into another world will (eventually) be explored. Some slight GameLit-feeling stuff later, no menus or level-ups but there's something suspiciously like a skill tree when the magic system gets going. No number crunching, and while the main character will get to do some silly stuff she won't be a god like in some fics (and will in fact spend a lot of time being badly outclassed by her enemies). Some reader interaction, ranging from adding to the worldbuilding to occasionally making big important decisions about skill progression. Please note that the main character is flawed and impulsive, and will make some stupid decisions. That's part of the story, but I get that it's not for everyone. Trigger Warnings: Foster care system references, crappy parenting. Some mental health adjacent stuff, specifically the main character has some issues where she experiences varying levels of empathy and emotional vulnerability depending on the day (it's complicated and not meant to portray any real-world conditions). Occasional violence including mention of death and grievous bodily harm, but no detailed descriptions of gore.
