<h4>Chapter 394: Disruption of Time</h4>
"The Ind... We can’t touch it." Ray informed Ryder, stunning him.
" You guys can’t touch that ind? Why?" Ryder asked, not understanding why it was that way. They were dealing against terrorism. Even if that ind was owned by some private businessman, they should have been able to go there.
"It’s not that we don’t want to, but we can’t. That ind is the territory that’s outside the jurisdiction of our country. To raid ces like these, we would need permission from the government. Furthermore, that specific Ind is even more special. I don’t know who owns it, but I can certainly say that we won’t get permission to go there. We can only target the temporary locations that you suggested," Ray answered as he sighed.
"Alright. If that’s something that you can’t do, I can’t force you. Attacking their temporary bases would also be somewhat effective. At Least it would force them to retract their forces. You can also catch their people and force them to confess. With enough proof, even if it’s outside jurisdiction, you should be able to get permission. It’s good to start even if it’s slow," Ryder said, understanding Ray’s plight.
"Yeah. Thanks for understanding. And thanks for the map," Ray thanked Ryder as he took the maps.
"I couldn’t have sent this data online. You didn’t have toe all the way here for this, though. I’m surprised that you decided toe," Ryder told Ray as he walked back towards his car.
"I wasing here to meet my sister when you told me about this. So I thought that it was better to collect in person since I could get more information. Can you drop me off at her ce?" Ray asked Ryder.
"Of course," Ryder agreed instantly.
Ray gazed at Ryder after he sat inside the car. "Also, I’m sorry for putting my sister in your trailst time. As you can understand, it was for good reasons."
"It’s fine. You shouldn’t worry about it anymore. Just don’te after me again. We’re on the same side, but I want to fly under the radar. You found out about me, but I don’t want it to get to higher-ups. Mine and my family’s peaceful life here is most important to me."
Ryder started the car and escorted Ray to the address.
Ray opened the door of the car, but he didn’t step outside. Instead, he asked, "Why don’t youe inside? Yourst meeting with her wasn’t good. It would be good if the two of you got introduced properly."
"It’s fine. Maybe some next time," Ryder refused politely.
"If you say so," Ray muttered as he stepped out of the car.
He watched Ryder leave before he entered the building where his sister was staying.
Adrian’s flightnded in Russia.
As he stepped out of the airport, he turned his phone on before he called someone.
In a few minutes, many SUV’s were lined up in front of him.
"Master."
A man appeared out of thin air like a shadow in front of Adrian.
"We weren’t able to contact you. Was your trip sessful?" The man asked Adrian.
" Sessful? It was very sessful if by sess you mean a disaster. I didn’t get what I was looking for, and I got into unnecessary trouble as well. Anyway, I might havee back as I needed to, but I haven’t given up. It was my mistake to go there without preparation. I didn’t know that they were so scared of me that they would block my phone in fear. Next time, it will be with fill preparation," Adrian replied as he walked towards the center car.
"First, I want you to hack into something and get me the information I need. Then you shall go there personally and bring what I want to me," he told the man who sat beside him.
The car started moving.
’So what if I can’t go because of father’s orders. I have people that can do what I wish. I will get what I desire, no matter what I have to sacrifice!’ Adrian thought as he looked outside the window.
’Sigh, the other guys must beughing at me since I was forced toe back. They will definitely bring it up next time we meet. At Least that messenger didn’t tell anyone else about the message that was intended for us. No one else can know that we were scolded like kids,’ he thought as he sighed. ’My entire reputation is ruined.’
"It’s all because it’s Aluren! The next time I meet him, I will crush him under my feet for messing with me," he muttered.
In a different corner of the world, another one of the Seven Sons of Gods, Draco Liang, was sitting in his room.
His trial was rted to China so that he couldn’t leave this country like other Sons couldn’t leave their assigned countries without getting punished.
He held a crystal in his hand, which looked just like the Crystal that Aluren had used to contact his father and the one he had returned to Freida.
"Yes, father. Don’t worry. No one shall know that I can contact you and that I have a crystal," Draco told his father, who happened to be known as the God of War in the Realm of Gods.
On the other end of the universe, the God of War was sitting on his throne, talking to his son.
He seemed like a giant, but it wasn’t easy toprehend how tall he was exactly. He had four arms, all of which were capable enough of shaking the worlds.
"Yeah, what did that idiot expect after exposing the fact that his son contacted him. He is such a tactless guy. I can never be as idiotic as him," the God of War said, remembering about the act of Lord of Death in the meeting of the Seven Gods.
"Father, is there a specific reason that you contacted me for? Or was it to tell me about Aluren and what happened to him?" Draco asked the father.
"Sigh, you’re such a boring guy. Can’t a father contact his son? Why does there have to be a reason? You don’t contact me at all even though I gave you the Crystal. And when I do, you act like that. You know how much your father misses you?" The God of War chided his son.
"I have something to do. I will be leaving if there’s nothing else," Draco replied expressionlessly.
"Sigh, wait a minute. There is something that I wanted to talk about. Not many people know about it, but I did hear something strange. I wanted to tell you about this. I also need you to be aware of something," the God of War told his son.
"Something strange? What do you mean?" Draco asked his father.
" You know your sister. She has a few connections to space and time in this universe. She did tell me there has been some instability in time on your. She could sense faint fluctuationsing from that ce," the God of War told his son in all seriousness.
" Now, she isn’t entirely sure since it can also be because the seven of you are in that world, and it might be what’s causing fluctuations, but I still wanted to tell you to be alert. Keep an eye on the others. I gave a feeling that one of the other six might be involved in this," he continued.
"Fluctuations in space and time? There are not many that can actually y around with such things. The Lord of Time is in the separate dimension created by God of Space, resting. So he can’t be the one causing it. That leaves only a few people, the strongest of whom are my sister and Janus. Did you try talking to Janus if he felt simr things? That can clear the situation. If he did, he might be able to find the cause since he is slightly more knowledgeable," Draco suggested.
"Sigh, I didn’t ask him. I don’t wish to ask him either. You know that guy is weird. Also, he’s the brother of the person we killed. Even though he supported us at that time, I still don’t trust himpletely," the God of War said, shaking his head.
"The person you all killed? Do you mean..."
"Yeah. The monster who wanted to change the world. The person who wanted to break thews of nature. The person who wanted to give immortality to everyone using corrupt methods. We couldn’t let him do it. If everyone were immortal, we wouldn’t be the Strongest beings. If it were up to him, he would have created billions of gods from the mortals. We couldn’t let him do it, could we?" The God of War sighed as he remembered the gruesome battle that took ce when one God faced all the other gods, ultimately falling to his death.
