"No one is anywhere. Something might've fallen somehow. Anyway, I will come to the reunion with you guys. I accept the offer since you're insisting so much," Ryder told Bastion as he agreed.

"That's good and all, but how can there be no one. I clearly heard something. Are you hiding someone from me? Did you get a girl?" Bastion asked with a frown on his face.

"Stop being suspicious. I'm not hiding anyone," Ryder replied innocently. "It's not like I have a woman in my room."

The dining table was facing the door of the house, and Ryder's room was on the right side of the hallway that was in between.

"Hey, how about you show us your room? I wonder how the grown-up Ryder decorated his room," Bastion stood up as he walked towards the room where he heard a sound coming from.

"You really think I'm hiding a girl in there, don't you?" Ryder asked as he stood up and followed behind Bastion.

Shu and Dan also walked behind them.

Bastion opened the door of the room and entered it. He didn't know which of the rooms belonged to Ryder, but he heard a voice coming from this room, so he was suspicious. Also, he realized that Ryder's sister probably locked her door. He knew that if it opened, it must be Ryder's room.

"The f*ck?" Shu exclaimed as soon as he entered the bedroom of Ryder.

Ryder entered his room after Bastion.

"It's not what you're thinking," Ryder told Shu as he shook his head.

"You became a geek that plays games? You know I hate gamers, right?" Bastion asked as he glared at Ryder.

He had seen the Divinity Glasses lying on the table.

"That's not a game. That's a VR, I guess. Even though they are the same things, they are different. You can't blame me for playing," Ryder replied with a wry smile on his face.

'Damn, I forgot that you hated games. Whatever, it's not as bad as finding Esmi here. I guess this time, Rewind Power came in handy. The things were agitated in the previous timeline after you saw her car outside and saw me hiding her. Fortunately, I could rewind time once a day. I was able to make her leave on time in this timeline,' Ryder thought as he picked up the Divinity glasses and placed them in his drawer.

"Aren't they all the same? Whatever man, I guess you have gone to the dark side. I hope you see the light someday," Bastion said to Ryder.

"Oh, right. I expect to see you at the Reunion. Don't be late," Bastion said before he left with Dan.

"Damn, what is his problem with us gamers? Don't worry, brother Shu! We will stay on the dark side forever! I won't let anyone bully you!" Shu said proudly.

"What dark side? You guys are trolling me, aren't you?" Ryder shook his head as he sat on his bed. "Also, the only one amongst us that can get bullied is you."

"It's fine. The lawyer said that he was in a hurry. It would've just wasted time if I had called you there—anyway, Congrats on topping all the rankings. You are no. 1 in all of them. There are already articles about you online," Shu congratulated Ryder.

'It is nothing. Just wait for some more time. You don't even know how popular Divinity is going to get. It will become a craze soon. It will be broadcasted on tv, pro players from all over the world will fight for prominence, the adventures will be broadcasted. It would be much better. Previously I wasn't famous, but now that I have the high position, I would be on tv all over the world,' Ryder thought as he remembered how the game had grown in the previous timeline.

"It's good. I'm not after the game, though. I just want to have some fun in the game," Ryder said casually.

\u003cDing... A Sub- Mission has been issued to the host\u003e

\u003cMission: Invite Shu to come to the party with you. Also, show him the birthday celebration invite that you received as a clue of the Ancient Cultivation Family\u003e

\u003cTime Limit: A day\u003e

\u003cReward: Good Luck at that party\u003e

\u003cReward: 50 Origin Points\u003e

\u003cPunishment for failure: You will not achieve any success at the party\u003e

'Invite him to that place? There's no difficulty in this mission, but I would have preferred to go alone. Whatever, it's just a birthday celebration,' Ryder thought.

Ryder moved his hand behind his back and brought the invitation letter out of his storage space.

"Shu, I have an invitation. Would you come with me to that party?" Ryder asked Shu as he showed him the invitation.

"How did you get that invitation?" Shu asked in surprise.

"You know about this?" Ryder asked in confusion.

"I have an invitation as well, but I think I dropped it somewhere," Shu muttered with a wry smile on his face.

"Some guy gave it to me as a gift. It's quite possible that he found the one you dropped. I'm not sure. Whatever, You can come with me, or I can come with you. This is a 1+1 invite. It works both ways."

Ryder made up an excuse. He was wondering how that terrorist got this invitation. It made sense if Shu dropped it and he picked it up.

Ryder had already known that Shu's family was wealthy. It wasn't weird for him to get such invites.

"I wasn't planning on going there, but I guess I can come if you want to go. It's good that you showed me this. This invitation is special, but you can't enter the party unless your name is on the invited list. I don't think the one that gave you the invitation knew about that, or he would've told you that. Probably you are right that he found it."

Shu agreed to come with Ryder.

'There was that as well? I guess I was too naive. I haven't been to any high profile parties, so I couldn't have known that. I guess Janus did help me this time,' Ryder thought as he smiled.

"Awesome. Thanks for that. There is a reason I must go there. It's so lucky that you told me about that. It would be embarrassing if I were thrown out," Ryder chuckled.
