Chapter 569: Another War

"I really thought that you were going to kill me today. When you sat near me, unaware, only then I relaxed a bit as I realized that you didn’t know anything. That’s when I told him everything and told him to come here," the woman said as she pointed at male Itsuki.

"Anyway, I’m the real Itsuki. As for him, he’s my right-hand man. Just think of him as the Itsuki I want the world to see while I remain in the shadows," he further said. "And yeah, I’m a guy. I’m in the form of a girl."

"Not bad. And you’re really right. I didn’t notice you. I can’t sense auras," Ryder answered, going with the story as he took a seat.

In his mind, he was constantly in contact with Janus.

’ Come on! Give me the name of any three god-sons out of the remaining six. I need to make up a story,’ Ryder told Janus.

"Julien, Draco, and Adrian," Janus answered Ryder, naming three people who he believed needed to be taken out first.

"So, tell me about this future you speak of. What is going to happen, and who is going to betray us?" The real Itsuki asked.

"Four people. There are four people who caused it, but that doesn’t mean one of them couldn’t cause it. As for those people, they are Aluren, Julien, Adrian, and Draco. So I came back in time to take all four of them out," Ryder answered.

"I didn’t know that when I was collecting information, you and Aluren would find out about me. So I killed Aluren and came here to stop you from spreading the news," he further said.

"And how do they do it? I mean, how do they bring this apocalypse? I can’t believe they become so strong as to destroy all the other Prime Gods and take them over? Why didn’t they stop them?" Itsuki asked Ryder.

"Because they were dead before they even knew it. As for how these people did it, the answer is simple. They didn’t do it. Instead, they brought the person who did it back to life," Ryder answered.

"They brought the person who did it back to life? And who is that person, if I may ask?" Itsuki inquired.

"Chaos. They brought Chaos back to life. As for how they did it, I have no idea. But Chaos and these four people caused everything. I need to kill the four of them before they pass the trial."

" Because if they pass it, they’ll bring apocalypse for all of us," Ryder answered.

" Let me contact my mother then. She will solve everything. She will surely believe you and imprison the four of them," Itsuki suggested.

Hearing his words, Ryder was a bit taken aback. If this guy actually told the higher-ups, it was going to be a messy situation. He needed to stop it.

"No! We can’t! I have a reason I came straight here and didn’t go to tell them. As for that reason, It’s the parents of those three!"

"They would never trust us! In fact, it’ll cause a war between the gods. Moreover, Aluren’s family will go crazy in rage that I killed him! So the best way to do it is to take them out silently!"

"After killing them, I’ll disappear and go back to my timeline, and everything will be fine! No one will know who killed them! There will be no war between the gods over this! Do you understand now?"

As Ryder kept making up this story, he was amazed at his talent. He believed he could have been a famous novelist with this kind of imagination.

"Ah, right. You’re right. Their parents won’t support us most probably, and it’ll cause another war. That’s not a good way of doing things. Assassination is better," Itsuki agreed with Ryder.

"That’s right. So do you want to help me? If the two of us do it, we might succeed faster. It’s also less risky," Ryder suggested, to which Itsuki once again agreed.

"Give me a moment to think," Itsuki told Ryder as he closed his eyes and fell into a deep thought. Killing others was a serious matter. Moreover, it also involved stepping on other people’s domain.

"Since I’ve always been hidden, not even the other god-sons know that he isn’t me. I should be able to step on their land without alerting them. But it is still risky," he muttered as he rubbed his chin.

"Alright. I’ve decided. I’ll help you. We’ll finish it fast, and then you’ll go back. Alright?" He asked Ryder, who nodded his head.

"Deal."

"So, who do you want to go after first?" Itsuki asked.

As Ryder didn’t know who the three people were, he just gave a random name. "Julien first."

"Alright. Tonight we’ll leave tomorrow. We’ll go in the Private Jet of a friend," Itsuki informed Ryder. "You can go to your hotel and get your things."

"I’m fine with that," Ryder agreed. "Till then, I’ll stay here."

He didn’t want to go back to his hotel since he didn’t want to lead others to where Alice was.

"Don’t you want your luggage?" Itsuki asked.

"No need. I have everything I need," Ryder answered lazily.

...

Alice was back in the hotel room, waiting for Ryder’s return, but she didn’t know that he wasn’t going to come.

Instead, Ryder used his second phone to send a message to Alice that he might not be able to come for the next few days. He also told her not to call since he was busy with something important.

He also asked for forgiveness at the same time. He also reminded her not to leave the hotel room until he returned.

"And if there’s any problem or you notice anything strange, tear the talisman that I gave you. Keep that safe for emergency use."

Alice finished reading the end of the message.

"Hmph, he always does this. Disappear in the middle and return after days. Just what is he doing? He doesn’t even tell me anything. All he said were the vague things about the gods walking amongst us." Alice dropped to her bed, furious at Ryder. She wasn’t angry that he left, but she was angry as he didn’t give her any information.

When she tried calling him, even his number was off.

....

Ryder spent the day with Itsuki, and it was only in the evening when he left the Itsuki Corporation with the real Itsuki.

He sat in a luxurious car which took them to the airport where a private jet was waiting for them.

The two of them boarded the plane, which started flying.

....

Back in the Necrosis, Ion was sitting in his office, watching the feed of the top players going through the trials he had set up for a billion dollars.

He wasn’t the only one who was watching, though. There were millions of people who were watching the feed.

"Any update on Ryder Flynn?" Ion called Maya, checking up.

" Ryder Flynn went to the Itsuki Corporation headquarters as you suspected," Maya told Ion as she started showing the footage that was caught on the roof.

"Wait a minute! Are the two going to fight?" Ion asked, confused. As he saw Ryder and Itsuki facing each other, he wondered if they were going to fight, but nothing like that happened.

Ryder only touched Itsuki before he returned. It was at that moment in the footage when he noticed something strange.

Ryder broke a flower pot and reversed its time.

"What the heck?" Noticing that moment, even Ion couldn’t help but be shocked.

"That’s the power of Time! None of the god-sons taking power in the trials could give it to him! So I truly was wrong! He wasn’t a puppet of them, but he was another god-son, related to the Lord of Time? Interesting. I wonder if he’s another one like me."

"But wait, he went to meet Itsuki. And I believe he met Aluren and Itsuki too. So he doesn’t need to hide like me for his trial. What is his goal then?" Ion wondered as he frowned.

"Maya, show me what happened after that!" He commanded.

"After that, he went downstairs, and we have no view from that point on. It’s in the evening when he left that building with that woman who is Itsuki’s assistant and boarded a private plane," Maya answered as she showed the footage of Ryder leaving. Even Ion didn’t know that the woman Ryder left with was the real Itsuki himself.

"Where is that jet going?" Ion asked.

"It’s en-route to Germany," Maya answered.

"Germany? Julien? Just what exactly is this guy doing?"

...

As Ryder boarded the plane, he brought out the Divinity Glasses. He wanted to go back as well. As for worrying about Itsuki, he didn’t care.

Even if Itsuki took the opportunity to kill him, he was just going to go back in time. And now that he knew Itsuki’s real identity, he could easily kill him.

"Hah, you play with that toy too?" Itsuki asked Ryder as he noticed
