Divinity: Against The Godly System

Chapter 47: Selecting an item

He continued scrolling down.

[Shield of Dulam- 800 Origin Points:

No attack can penetrate the shield of Dulam. The shield would only break by another magical item with an even stronger explosive power.]

[Robotic Girlfriend: 2000 origin points:

The best girlfriend you can get. The Robotic Girlfriend will fulfill all your wishes, and the best thing about it? She won't argue with you!]

"Wow. That's weird for sure." Ryder said with a smile.

[Ring of Charm- 700 Origin Points:

A ring that increases the charm of the wearer. It will make the wearer more charming and irresistible for the opposite gender.]

Ryder kept scrolling, and ultimately he saw something.

Something that brought a smile to his face.

"I feel like the mission became a whole lot easier. I have an idea of how I can do it." Ryder let out with a smile on his face.

[Pill of Childhood- 100 Origin Points.

The one that eats the pill is taken back to his childhood. He loses his intelligence and starts acting like a child. People don't forget essential things like Driving, eating, etc.

Warning: The effects last for only a day.]

Ryder double tapped on the pill of childhood and bought the item by paying 100 origin points out of his 150 points.

The pill appeared in front of him and floated in the air.

Ryder caught the pill and observed the shiny white pill.

"Such a fortunate thing that I found you, little guy," Ryder muttered with a smile.

He kept the pill in his storage and left the room.

Finally, he had everything he needed. The only thing he needed was to go to Bucky's. He was only worried about Esmi. It would be his first time meeting the underworld Queen after that night.

______________

Ryder got out of the cab and found himself near his destination. He paid the driver and started walking towards the Club.

It was evening, and the club was just starting to get filled. There was a line of more than 20 people outside, waiting to gain entry.

Ryder wondered if he could even gain entry, but that didn't stop him.

As soon as he reached near the club, the guards noticed him.

"Hey, aren't you the guy that was with the young boss?" The guard called out to Ryder.

Ryder was stunned that the man recognized him. Then again, he did come with their little boss. They would be quite stupid to forget him.

A smile appeared on his face as he found a way to enter without waiting in a long line.

"Yeah. I'm here to meet Bastian. Is he here?" Ryder said with a smile as he stood in front of the guard.

"The boss is not here yet, but if he promised you, he should be coming at any time." The guard said with a smile.

"You can go inside." He said as he made way for him to enter.

Ryder was quite liking the feeling of being cared for. Not having to wait in the line was such a pleasure. He couldn't help but thank Bastian in his mind.

He entered the club and found it just like the last time.

Mark was silently sitting at the table and drinking a beer.

Ryder walked towards the beer counter and ordered 2 beers.

As he got the beer, he sneakily snuck in the pill he had purchased from the store inside one of the bottles.

Ryder held both the beers in his hand and sat in front of Mark without asking for permission.

Mark was more focused on his wine; thus, he was quite annoyed as he noticed someone sitting in a chair near him.

He shifted his gaze upwards as he looked at the person who sat at his table.

"It's you?" Mark called out as he recognized the face.

"What're you doing here? Is Young Boss here as well?" Mark let out as he looked around.

"Nope. It's just me. I just wanted to visit the place on my own." Ryder replied with a smile.

"Oh, no... It looks like your bottle is finished. I got one here for you." Ryder smilingly said as he placed the drugged beer bottle in front of Mark.

"T-thank you." Mark was visibly surprised, but he didn't find anything odd.

He took the bottle and started gulping it down.

"So, What do you do?" Mark asked Ryder.

"I do nothing; I'm just a freelancer." He responded as he waited for the effects of the pill.

Mark was about to reply when his eyes went blank as he started smiling foolishly.

"Hey, boy... What's your name?" Ryder asked.

He observed Mark's expressions and was quite pleased. The effect of the pill was quite fast.

"My name is Mark Rucchi, Uncle," Mark replied in a childish tone.

"Good boy, do you know how to sign?" Ryder asked with a grin.
