Divinity: Against the Godly System

Chapter 543: One after another

The girl gave the phone to Ryder after dialing the number, but Ryder disconnected the call right away before the call could even be picked up. 

"What happened? Why did you cut the call?" The girl asked Ryder, confused. 

"Because I have better plans. Anyway, your work is finished. I would need you to sleep for a little while so that you don't interfere. I don't want to have to hurt you," Ryder said as he raised his fist in the direction of the girl, throwing some kind of powder on her face.

As soon as the powder entered the body of the girl through her nose, she dropped to the ground, unconscious. 

"Non-harmful sleeping powder. It will all be over by the time you wake up. So don't worry," Ryder said as he stepped closer to the girl. 

He picked her up in his arms before he took her to the bedroom. Placing the girl on the bed 

Slowly reaching out his hand, he touched the face of the girl. Keeping his fingers on the cheeks of the girl, he swallowed a pill which started changing his body temporarily to that of the girl who was before him, including the face. 

"God, this work really needs me to do some messed up things. Impersonating a girl to get to my goals, and not as an illusion. The effect will last for two hours. That much time should be enough to be done with it."

"But first, I need to wear her clothes as well, to make it more realistic."

He walked towards the wardrobe of the girl and picked up a pair of jeans and a shirt. 

After getting dressed, he used the video call option on the unlocked phone of the call with which he called the grandfather of the lady who was the Fourth King. 

...

The Fourth King had just stepped out of the bathroom when he heard his phone ring. Looking at the number, a surprise look spread across his face. 

He also seemed a bit happy since, after a long time, his granddaughter had called him. 

After the death of his son and his daughter-in-law, this girl was his only family member. He doted on her a lot, but even then, she didn't appreciate it. 

She said that she wanted to be independent and didn't want to have to rely on her grandfather; that's why she left the house and came to this city to study at the Dream University.

It had been a year since that. He even tried to send a few guards here to protect her, but she was once again upset and made him swear on her life that he won't interfere in her life or send anyone to protect her since she didn't believe she was at risk. 

Despite caring so much for her, he only called her once a week since he didn't want to annoy her even more. 

To see her calling from the front, he was not only surprised but also elated. Moreover, it was a video call.

"Janine, how are you, my dear," the man said as he picked up the call. 

On his screen, he could see his granddaughter crying. 

"Huh? What happened? Why are you crying? Did someone hurt you? Tell me what happened, I will take care of everyone!" He said firmly, feeling worried for his granddaughter. 

"I am missing you a lot. I wish you were here. I feel broken after what happened today," the girl replied, crying. Her tears didn't stop for even a second. 

The Fourth King didn't know that the one who was talking to him was none other than Ryder and not his daughter.

Ryder had schemed everything. Now he was putting his final pieces in place to call the fourth in the place where he wanted. 

Seeing his granddaughter cry, the fourth king couldn't help but feel a heavy pain in his heart. 

"Are you at home," he asked his daughter. "Tell me. I will come to you right away. I'm already in the city. I will get there within a few minutes. Just tell me if you want me to."

"Please. I need you," Ryder said in the form of the girl as fake tears continued leaving his eyes. 

"Right away."

The Fourth King left the house without telling anyone and straight away went to the address which was given to him by Ryder.

"Janine! I am here! Open the gate!"

As the Fourth King reached the house of Janine, he started knocking on the door and calling out to her. 

Ryder walked over to the door and opened it. 

As soon as he opened the door, he hugged the Fourth King, still crying. 

"Don't cry. Tell me who made my princess cry. And watch them cry," The Fourth King said as he hugged Ryder back. 

"The one who made me cry is..." Ryder said before he stopped. 

"Tell me. Who is it? Don't worry about anything," the Fourth King said as he heard his granddaughter stop talking.

A knife appeared in Ryder's back which was the similar knife he used to kill the Seventh King by destroying his soul. 

How that he was within a perfect ready, he stabbed the back of the Fourth King. 

" It is you. So die for me and make me happy!" Ryder said softly. 

"Urgh!" The Fourth King's eyes opened wide in shock as he found himself stabbed by his own granddaughter. Even after all that, he didn't attack his granddaughter since he just couldn't. 

He did wonder why his Granddaughter hated him so much to kill him. 

The knife which was stabbed on his back disappeared along with his soul as the last bit of him died as well with hundreds of questions in his mind. 

He kept thinking about why his Granddaughter attacked him and how he was dying because of a single stabbing when he had incredible healing?

Even when he died, he didn't realize that the person he had hugged wasn't his daughter but Ryder. 

Unlike the previous King, the Fourth King was warier since he was in the Army. He was more suspicious as well and rarely let anyone get close to him. 

That was why Ryder had to take the form of his own granddaughter since she was the only one he was going to allow to get close to him without putting up any guard. That was exactly what Ryder needed at this point. 

He dragged the body of the Fourth King inside the house before he closed the door and began the absorption process, bringing his Level to above 3000.

"God, that's my real world level. Doesn't this mean I am most probably even stronger than the High Dukes of Divinity? This is so amazing." Excited, Ryder canceled the transformation before he returned to his normal face. 

He once again covered his face with a face mask and walked back to the room where he had kept his old clothes. He changed clothes again before he checked one last time to see the sleeping girl.

"Thanks for all the help. Have a great day. You'll wake up in half an hour. Until then, enjoy the dreams."

Closing the door of the girl's room, he left the place, once again flying before he reached that abandoned neighborhood where he had parked his car. 

He once again changed his clothes before he stepped inside the car and took off his mask as well. 

He also received the call from Gander, who informed him that he had successfully brought the Twelfth King to the office.

"You aren't in the office, right?" Ryder asked Gander.

"Really? If I was there, why would I even be calling you? I left the office with an excuse," Gander replied. 

"Good, don't step inside the office for the next ten minutes if you don't want to die," Ryder told Gander before he brought out his Deity phone inside which he had installed an Application that came complimentary with the item he had brought from the store. 

Opening the app, he saw two buttons. One was red with [Detonate] written on it. 

The other button was green with [Disengage] written on it. 

Without thinking twice, he pressed the red button. 

....

Inside the office of Gander, the Twelfth King was sitting on the main seat. 

"I wonder where this Gander went. He said he had something important to tell me, but it's taking a bit longer," he said, talking to himself. 

As he was speaking, an explosion took place, but it wasn't an explosion of fire. It was an explosion of a poisonous gas that filled the entire room. 

Seeing the green gas everywhere, the Twelfth King realized something was wrong. He stood up and started running towards the door, but before he could even reach the door, he dropped to the ground, breathless. 

His heartbeat had stopped. 

The Kings, who were like gods for some people, were dying one after another in the hands of Ryder, and not a single person except Gander knew.
