Chapter 315 - 311: Master Is Here
"Uprising! Uprising! Uprising!" The black-clothed men kept chanting throughout the night.
"Everyone, take the things you need! May the Goddess of Destruction be with you all!" The man standing in the center let out loud as he started laughing.
Everyone who was present in the room walked over to the wall that had a few carry bags placed near it. Some bags were small while some were big. Each of them carried a bad.
"Go out and make the whole World Tremble! There are Fifty of you. Looking at the resources, at least twenty thousand people should die tonight, or it would be a waste of the resources we gave you! Master is in this City as well! Make sure that you succeed! He will be watching," the man thundered as he started loading his gun.

Ryder left the Mansion of Shu with Alice. He had taken the keys of the Ferrari from Shu already. He opened the door for Alice.
He sat on the driver's seat and started the car, taking it in reverse. He got the car out of Shu Estate, got it on the road, and started driving away.
" Ah? He's leaving at that time?" the girl who was spying on Ryder was shocked to see him leaving this late. She hurriedly ran out of her house and entered her car as she started chasing after Ryder while keeping a safe distance.
Ryder was driving the car, but he lowered the speed as he heard the voice of Janus. He knew that Janus mostly talked to him when it was for a mission. He didn't want to be in an accident by hitting the car on some pole if the mission was frustrating, so he had already lowered the speed in advance as soon as Shu said the first word.
<A Mission has been issued to the Host>
<Mission Take Alice on a date outside the City>
<Mission Reward: A fulfilling experience with Alice>
<Mission Reward: Hundred Origin Points>
<Punishment For Failure: Death>
'Hmm? Death? Whose death? It didn't say whose death this time. Is this a mystery threat or something? I can't die, so it can't be me. I won't let Alice die, and Janus wouldn't hide it if it were a threat about her death,' Ryder thought as he frowned.
'Whose death?' Ryder asked as he frowned.
Unfortunately, Janus didn't answer.
"Sigh, This guy is really irritating sometimes. His habit to not answer me is so frustrating," Ryder mumbled as he sighed.
"Whatever, I might as well not take a risk this time. It doesn't matter if I have dinner in this city or the next. It's just that the booking Shu made for us will go to waste. I'll have to think of an excuse when I go back," he muttered.
"Did you say something?" Alice asked Ryder as she looked at him.
" Hmm? Nothing. I said nothing. I was just talking to myself," Ryder muttered as he shook his head.
He increased the speed of his car.

"Hmm? Why are we going there? That will lead us outside the city? Aren't we going for dinner?" Alice asked in confusion as she looked at the road ahead.
"We're going to dinner, but it's not dinner in this city. It's the next city. It's not often that we're out like this. I thought that if we go to the next city, we'll get a long drive as well. The more time I get with you, the better," Ryder muttered as he innocently replied.
"Also, I heard that there's a really great hotel there. It has some great reviews. I always wanted to try it," He said, making up an excuse.
" Ah, Didn't Elder Brother Shu book for us nearby?" Alice inquired in confusion.
"Don't worry about that. Everything's placed," Ryder replied, shaking his head.
"If you say so," Alice replied as she nodded her head innocently.

Ray's Sister was still chasing after Ryder in her car.
" He's leaving the city at this time? That's pretty suspicious," she muttered as she kept her eyes on Ryder's car while following it.
*Ring* *Ring*
"Hmm?" the girl was surprised as she felt her phone vibration. She placed her earphones in her ears and picked up the call.
" Brother, you called at the right time. I was just about to call you," the girl said after picking up the call.
Ray was on the other side of the call, speaking from the headquarters of the FBI. He wanted to take an update on how her mission was going, and if she found something.
"Hmm? Why? Did you find something suspicious?" Ray asked the girl.
"I did not find much yet. The guy spends most of his time inside, but today he went out of the mansion three times. In the morning, he left with Schumacher Maxwell on his helicopter. I couldn't follow them, so I don't know where they went, but it seemed as if they were going to some official business from their clothing. They came back in the evening," the girl replied.
"Oh? Don't worry. I'll find out where they went in the morning. Where did he go the next two times?" Ray inquired.
"The second time he left the mansion was right after coming back. He took a walk on the street outside the mansion. Oh, I did notice something strange at that time. It seemed like he was talking to himself," The girl replied.
" Are you sure there was no one nearby? Some people can hide in the shadows pretty well. Don't screw this up, alright. It would be best if you didn't miss anyone this guy meets alone," Ray told the girl.
"Hah, are you doubting my abilities? I know what I saw. That guy was alone. There was no one nearby. He was definitely talking to himself," the girl replied, shaking her head. "He went back after a few minutes."
"And the third time?" Ray asked.
"He left the mansion just a little while ago, and this trip is what I'm just suspicious about. It seems like the man is leaving the city. I don't know what his objective is, but it doesn't look right. No one would leave the city this late at night in a car if they had the helicopter of Schumacher Maxwell for their travel," the girl replied.
"Are you following him?" Ray asked.
"Yeah, I'm on his tail," The girl replied.
"Good. Something does seem fishy about this. It might be the time I was waiting for, where he leads me to someone. Stay on his tail without getting caught. See who he meets and what he does." Ray said.
