Divinity: Against The Godly System Chapter 292 Lost Control

Chapter 292: Lost Control

"It's fine. I thought about everything. We'll be going on a private helicopter. Don't worry. We'll be right on time," Shu told Ryder as he smiled.

" Anyway, I'm sure you don't know much about the people that are throwing the party, right? You heard of the Silva Family?" Shu asked Ryder.

"Ah, no. I didn't. I don't think there's any Silva Clan amongst the business tyc.o.o.ns that I read about," Ryder let out, shaking his head.

"Well, it would be wrong to call them Business Tyc.o.o.ns since they don't get involved in a business that would typically get covered by the mainstream media. They are more like an ancient medicine family. They create their own medicine and sell them. The strange thing, though, is that they don't sell to the general public," Shu told Ryder.

"Oh? Who do they sell to then?" Ryder inquired curiously.

"They have something like a members.h.i.+p. Most of the wealthy people are part of that members.h.i.+p. Also, that members.h.i.+p can't be asked for or applied for. You can only get a members.h.i.+p if they offer you. I don't know what other businesses they have. Besides that, they are pretty mysterious. They do have a high authority, though," Shu told Ryder.

"Do you have that members.h.i.+p as well?" Ryder asked Shu.

"Yeah, I got the members.h.i.+p. That's why I got the invitation as well, which I lost," Shu let out as he chuckled.

Ryder couldn't help but smile wryly since that invitation of Shu was with him. He had taken this invitation from the a.s.sa.s.sin that came to kill Alice's friend.

He had to lie to Shu and say that he found the invitation.

"Anyway, the Party is in Lavender Town, which is the hub of the Silva Family. The entire town is owned by them, and no one is allowed to enter the town without their permission. Also, you'll be seeing a lot of big people there, I'm sure," Shu told Ryder.

"Most of the powerful people that aren't too busy will attend the party. It can be a good place for you to establish your collections," he agreed.

"Yeah, it would be good to attend the party. I'm quite curious about the people I'll meet there and if they can get me to my goal," Ryder muttered as he smiled.

He picked up the gla.s.s of water to drink and noticed that he could feel something. It was as if he could feel the water in the gla.s.s before even drinking.

'Is this because of the Ruler of Water? Now that I think about it, I didn't test it. I should at least test the weapon-making," Ryder muttered as he looked at the gla.s.s of water.

He activated his Blessing of Nature and placed all his focus on the gla.s.s of water. He wanted to make a tiny trident inside the gla.s.s of water.

The water in the gla.s.s started shaking and rising.

Ryder had placed the gla.s.s near his knees to hide it from everyone's view as he did it. He didn't want anyone to see.

The water started shaking as if there was an earthquake. It started taking the shape of a thick stick. Ryder knew that he was getting close to making a trident. He started trying even harder.

The water became more and more unstable with time until the gla.s.s shattered, and the water spilled everywhere.

A few pieces of gla.s.s also stabbed Ryder's hand making him give out a pained noise.

"Are you fine?" Alice and Shu stood up as they heard the sound of gla.s.s cracking.

Ryder stood up as well as he wiped his pants that were wet from all the spilled water. His hands still had gla.s.s stabbed in them, but he couldn't let them see it as his hands were going to recover as soon as the gla.s.ses were taken out. He couldn't let them see his incredible healing.

"I'll be right back after changing clothes," Ryder told them as he ran towards the stairs to go back to his roof while keeping his hands out of the view.

Alice looked at the shattered gla.s.s on the ground suspiciously.

"The water spilled on his pants, so gla.s.s must be in his hands when it happened. I wonder if he got hurt and is trying to hide it. We should go see," Shu told Alice as she started walking after Ryder.

Alice followed after him.

Ryder entered the room and hurriedly took the gla.s.ses out of his hand. He threw the pieces under his bed before he ran into the washroom to wipe his hands of the blood.

As he wiped his hand, he could see that his hands were already healed. He took his pants off and hung it in the corner before he turned back to leave, but he stopped as he looked back towards the water droplets falling from the tap.

His curiosity again got the best of it as he decided to try again.

He opened the tap again and let the waterfall into the sink while he looked at the water.

He reached out his hand and pointed his finger towards the water as he tried forming a trident again, but controlling this power wasn't as easy as it seemed. Even though he had all the requirements for this, he still lacked the practice.

He remembered the time it took for him to learn flying after getting the Flying Skill from the Ruler of Wind.

He lacked practice, but he still had confidence that he could do this.

Ryder placed all his focus on the water to form a trident. The water seemed to be taking the shape of the Trident. Ryder could see himself near the success, but that's when things started going south as he heard a sudden knock on the door.

His concentration was suddenly broken as he lost control of the water.

A needle made of water flew everywhere in the room. One of those water needles. .h.i.t the mirror, shattering it. Another one of these water needles came in the direction of Ryder's neck.

Having no time to Dodge, Ryder bent his elbow and brought it close to his neck to protect it. He knew that he was in danger at this point in time.

He was sure that the water needle would penetrate his hand with the strength he had seen when the mirror was broken, but something completely unexpected happened.

The Water needed to touch his hand and changed into a gentle splash of water that didn't harm him in the least. It only made his s.h.i.+rt wet.
