Divinity: Against The Godly System

Chapter 329 Little Hero

Chapter 329: Little Hero

"Kekeke, Little Third. Aren’t you forgetting your manners?" the masked man asked the black-clothed man as he chuckled.

"Ah, I apologize, Your Highness," the clothed black man apologized.

"Who are you all?" Esmi let out as she walked back to Bastion to protect him. She had a good sense of danger, and she had realized that she wasn’t the opponent of these people without her weapon.

"Oh? That boy behind you, he looks familiar," The masked man ignored Esmi’s question and placed all his focus on Bastion.

"Hahaha, now I get it! I understand why the Tenth King didn’t want us to come here. That bastard!" The masked man started laughing as he stared at Bastion.

"Who are you?!" Esmi asked again.

"Are you the mother of this guy?" The masked man ignored the question again as he asked a question of his own.

Esmi looked at Bastion briefly before she lied, "Yes, I am his mother."

"Nah, you’re lying. But you seem pretty close to him. I guess I won’t kill you unless I have to," the masked man said as he shook his head. He caught her lie instantly.

" Who the hell are you?! What are you doing here?!" Esmi asked the same question for the third time.

"It doesn’t matter who I am. What does matter is what I want! As for what I want, that’s pretty simple. I want the address and phone number of someone called Ryder Flynn. I heard that you know him," the masked man said.

Bastion and Esmi, both of them were shocked as they heard the name of Ryder. They were both close to Ryder and thought of him as their family. They were worried for Ryder after knowing that these people were looking for him.

" Why are you looking for Ryder?! What do you want from him?! Are you looking to harm him?!" Both of them said at the same time.

" Oh? The two of you are in perfect sync. It seems that this Ryder Flynn is very close to both of you. It doesn’t seem like you’ll answer my question without me having to harm you. As for harming you, I don’t wish to do that. I already have my plate full with my own work. I don’t want the Tenth King to come to annoy me as well. I guess I’ll choose a more moderate way," The masked man muttered as he sighed.

"Little Four, How about you bring me her phone? Oh right, the unlocked phone," He continued as he glanced towards one of the five subordinates.

The man known as little four stepped forward and picked up the phone that was lying on the couch.

He walked over to Esmi and forced her to touch the fingerprint to unlock the phone, but it showed incorrect.

"It seems to be the boy’s phone. Where is your phone?" The man asked Esmi, unaware that Esmi’s phone was out of battery and in her room.

"It doesn’t matter. Bring me the boy’s phone. Both of them know this Ryder, so both of them should have his number. It doesn’t matter which weapon we use. What matters is that the prey should be dead. Here, all I want is the number. I don’t care which phone gives me the number," the masked man said as he looked at Little Four.

"Yes, Your Highness," Little Four moved over to Bastion and forced his finger on the fingerprint sensor of the phone to unlock it.

He carried the unlocked phone to the masked man.

The masked man took the phone and started tinkering with it.

"Ryder, here it is. The person we’re looking for. Now Mr. Ryder, are you the Undying Hero that we’re looking for or just a stupid ant that’s caught in its web by accident? It would be interesting to see," the man muttered as he dialed a number of his man and gave Ryder’s number to the man. He told the man to track the number.

Next, he called Ryder’s number from Shu’s phone.

The man Ryder had caught explained everything to him.

"So the place where I would find you all," Ryder muttered.

The man looked at Ryder weirdly. He wondered if Ryder was an Idiot who didn’t know about past and present. How could he find everyone there when they were there in the past? He thought.

"My next question. Are-"

Ryder was about to ask his next question when his phone started ringing.

Ryder brought the phone out of his pocket and looked at who was calling.

" Bastion? Why is he calling me? Did something happen?" he muttered as he picked up his phone.

" Yeah, Bastion. What happened?" Ryder asked as soon as he picked up the call.

"Nothing happened yet, but a lot will happen soon, my Undying Hero," The Thirteenth King said.

"You’re not Bastion! Who are you? Why do you have his phone?" Ryder asked as he frowned.

He had also placed his focus on the word, Undying Hero. Did someone really find out that he couldn’t die? He decided that it was best to ignore that and not give away any clue.

"Who I am? I’m someone who wishes to meet you. As for why I have your friend’s phone, it’s because he graciously allowed me to use his phone. By the way, little hero. If you’re really the Undying Hero, why do you hide? Why don’t you come clean?" the Thirteenth King asked as he started walking towards the exit of the mansion.

He left the mansion. The other five people also left, leaving Esmi and Bastion behind but not before tying their hands and legs.

"Are they safe?" Ryder asked in a grim tone.

"They are. I don’t want to face you by keeping hostages, little hero. I’ll get to you on my own, and then I’ll make you see the destiny of heroes," the Thirteenth King let out a creepy laughter.

"Who are you? Why are you trying to find me?" Ryder replied casually.

"Well, I’m not trying to find you. You tried to find us, and now I’m making your wish come true. Don’t worry, little guy. It won’t be too long before everything’s over," the man muttered as he laughed.

"Sure. Fine me," Ryder said as he disconnected the call.

"So the Uprising wasn’t as useless as I thought. They did find me. They didn’t find me in the last timeline. It must be because of this guy I kidnapped that they knew about me," Ryder muttered as he looked at the man whose neck was in his arms.

He walked to the Pilot and told him to change the direction of the helicopter. Since he was being trailed, he didn’t think about going to Shu’s estate and bringing trouble there.
