Chapter 193: Joining the Enemy?
"I thought I was done, and I had killed you, but it won’t be over before you’re truly dead. Bullets don’t seem to work on you. Let me just cut you up then," Ryder muttered as he walked towards the girl lying on the ground.
"His back... Is he the same person that helped us deal with the Bio Terrorists in Washington? He seems to have hostility from that organization and a lot of knowledge. No wonder he was able to find out the reality of Riya while we weren’t," Ray muttered as he recognized the back of the man before him.
Another thing that proved to him that Ryder was the same person was that he hadn’t died either, just like that person wasn’t dying. Also, he was against Riya, who was probably from that evil organization.
Ray was over ninety-nine percent sure that the person before him was the same person that helped him before, and he was over seventy percent sure that the person was Ryder.
"Ahu, ahu," Jacob was coughing heavily as his neck was finally freed, and he was able to breathe.
His heartbeat was fast, but it was getting normal as his neck was freed.
"Is that really the one who helped you before? I can’t believe it. How did he survive that blast?" Jacob asked as he looked out of the car. He was having a hard time believing Ray’s theory.
" I have no idea. There are so many things that don’t make sense, but they happen. That should be one of those mysteries. Every day, I’m finding my general knowledge of the world being shattered," Ray replied as he shook his head. He had realized that this world was a complicated place, and there was nothing that was unbelievable here.
"Should we help him?" Jacob inquired as he looked at Ray.
"Let’s just watch. I don’t think he seems to be worried," Ray replied.
While Ray and Jacob were talking, Ryder was walking towards the girl with a sword in his hand that he had taken out from his storage.
" It would’ve been much better if you were the one to attack me first as I would be able to get some experience, but that’s already impossible since I had to pull you out. I’m pretty annoyed at you," Ryder let out as he walked forth.
"You’re the person that was in Washington, aren’t you? Who are you? Why are you trying to become an obstruction for Uprising? Did they not give you what you want? Tell me why you went rogue after they helped you evolve!" Riya let out loud. Her voice was so loud that it reached Ray as well.
The girl believed that Ryder was one of them since he had a similar ability. She thought that he got the powers the same way as she got her abilities, and if he was still opposing Uprising and trying to destroy them, then he was a rogue, but that was only her assumption. She didn’t know that she was entirely wrong.
She didn’t know that Ryder’s powers were way above whatever ability she got. She was living even after being shot, but she was like a robot. The damage was clearly shown in her forehead in the form of the bullet holes, but Ryder, on the other hand, was perfectly healed.
To Ray and Jacob, this assumption sounded like a confession from her. They thought that she was talking about some secret. Ray believed even more and more that Ryder was part of some secret experiment, and now he had decided to fight against that evil organization by using their own powers.
In Ray’s mind, Ryder was a Rogue hero, fighting the evil sound in the quest for some kind of revenge.
"What the heck are you talking about? All I want is to kill you. Just die silently!" Ryder let out as he ran towards her and swung his sword towards her neck. He wanted to destroy her beyond repair.
Just as his sword was about to land on her neck, Riya raised her hand and caught his sword with her bare hands.
"Hmm?" Ryder looked weirdly at her hand, wondering how it wasn’t cut. Even though the sword was something that he bought from a normal store, it was still a sharp sword.
"You can’t kill me, and I can’t kill you. You still have time. Join us," Riya said as she reached out her left hand to shake Ryder’s hand. "You’ll get many treasures if you join us."
"That does sound good," Ryder replied as he reached out his hand and held her hand.
"This can’t be!" Ray let out with a look of disbelief on his face.
"When is the backup getting here? We might need to fight the both of them," Jacob said with a look of sadness on his face. He believed that Ryder had actually joined up with Riya.
"They should be here soon," Ray said as he shook his head, frowning.
Ryder was holding the hands of Riya, but he used that to pull her closer as he kicked her face. His boot landed on Riya’s face and made her fall down.
His sword was freed from her grip. He raised her and smashed her on the ground.
Cracks developed on the ground, and Riya’s head was smashed on it.
"I don’t care for any organization, but I do need you for something," Ryder said as he gripped her neck and started running away with her. Riya struggled to free herself, but she couldn’t.
"Wait," Ray called out as he ran after him, but he saw Ryder turning in a corner. As he reached there, he saw that it was completely empty. There was no one there.
While Ray was looking around on the streets, Ryder was in the sky. He had already landed on the balcony of Jameson’s Mansion. He was holding Riya in a chokehold while he used his other hand to close her mouth.
He entered the mansion and walked into Jameson’s room as he closed the door.
He freed her inside the room.
"Now, you can scream all you want," he let out as he smiled.
"I’ll kill you!" Riya let out as she ran forward to attack Ryder.
"Thunder," Ryder let out casually.
"Aaaaa!" Riya screamed like crazy.
As soon as the word escaped his lips, Riya was electrocuted. She screamed out loud as she dropped to her knees.
’The items are really fun to use. I might get addicted to buying things from the system store,’ Ryder thought as he smiled.
