Chapter 325: Dying

Ryder was about to take a step forward, but he stopped as he heard a clapping sound from behind him.

He stopped as he turned back to look who it was.

"Why did you stop? Go. Jump. Kill yourself. You think no running away from your problem helps, right? Go, do it. I won't stop you."

Ryder could see a girl standing near the door who was looking at him like he was an idiot. She was gesturing to him to jump. He didn't recognize the girl. 

The Girl seemed to be slightly older than him. She seemed pretty, but her pretty face had a frown on it.

"Why did you stop? Go, jump," the girl said as she saw Ryder looking at him blankly.

" Just remember one thought, though. It doesn't help. Once you take a step forward, you'll die. You still have the opportunity and a long life ahead of you. You're still young. I'm sure whatever it is that's troubling you can be solved. It might take a short time or longer, but it can't take longer than the life you have ahead of you," the girl said.

"Think Carefully. You want to jump and give up everything or life and face whatever problem you have so that you can live a better life after that," she continued.

'Ah, so she's doing it this way. Trying to save me,' Ryder thought as he smiled wryly.

"How did you get to the top, though?" Ryder asked the girl. He didn't bother asking who the girl was.

" Does it even matter? I live on the 17th floor. I saw you going upstairs to the roof and decided to follow you. Listen, Dude. I know you must have some problem to make a decision like this, but still, you can talk to me about it. I'll help you. Don't give up your life for this. We only have one life after all," The girl said to Ryder.

"Hahaha," Ryder started laughing as he heard her words.

"You wouldn't think that if you knew about me. Anyway, You're a nice girl. I'm glad I got to meet you, even though this meeting would never happen now. As for my problem, you can't help me. My problem needs me to jump. Thanks for trying, though. If we meet again, I'll remember you," Ryder said as he waved his hand.

"Bye, pretty lady," he said as he tilted his body backward.

"Wai-" The girl reached out her hand as she ran forward, but she was too late. Ryder had already fallen down.

****

This is going to hurt, isn't it?" Ryder muttered as he fell down the roof. He was falling down, feeling the rush of wind against his back.

He was scared of dying like this, but he didn't want to shoot himself either. He had already died from being shot before. Since he had the ability not to die, he wanted to try experiencing what each death felt like. So far, he had only experienced being shot. This time, he wanted to try experiencing death through falling from a height. He was scared, but he was kind of excited as well.

Soon, he reached near the ground. His body crashed on the concrete floor.

****

Ryder opened his eyes as he heard the strange noise.

He looked around and noticed that he was sitting beside Shu. They were in a helicopter together. The noise was from the fans of the helicopter.

"Isn't that right?" Shu asked Ryder suddenly.

"Huh?" Ryder let out as he looked towards Shu.

" Right. That stock is a good option," he continued as he remembered what they were talking about at this point in time.

"You look stressed suddenly. Did something happen?" Shu asked Ryder as he frowned.

" Yeah, something did happen. Shu, I'm going to need your help. I need Trained Soldiers that can take care of any enemy. People's lives depend on it," Ryder said as he looked into Shu's eyes.

"Ah, did something happen?" Shu asked Ryder as his frown deepened. He could see that Ryder looked serious. 

"Did you see some bad dreams?" he asked.

" I didn't see any dreams. I just remembered something really important. Anyway, I'll tell that to you later. I need Thirteen teams of at least two soldiers each. People that can take the lead and think in critical situations, and I need them in an hour," Ryder said.

"What did you remember? What's it about?" Shu inquired, still not understanding what was happening.

The Guards and the butler also looked at Ryder.

" Tell me one thing first. Do you trust me? Anything I say?" Ryder asked Shu in a grim tone.

"I do," Shu said without taking even a single second to think.

"That's good. Don't ask any questions about how I know it. Just know that there is going to be a terrorist attack on our city tonight, and I need your help to stop it," Ryder said.

"You ten," he continued as he looked at the guards of Shu. "You're taking part in this mission." 

"Now we need at least sixteen more people," He muttered.

"Ah, You can take all the guards that are protecting our mansion. It's not like anyone will attack me anyway. There are over sixty guards there. All of them were former army members. They're all fully trained. That should make enough," Shu said, nodding his head.

Ryder looked at Shu. He was seriously thinking about it when he remembered the mission of Janus that talked about death. 

He didn't want to take the risk of taking the guards of the Estate and put Shu and Alice's life in jeopardy.

"Ah, no. I can't put the security of the Estate at risk. This night won't be safe for anyone. The more guards you have, the better," Ryder said, shaking his head.

"It's really fine. I have my ways to protect myself. Take the guards. I can call our private security as well, but those people aren't in this city. They'll take some time to reach here," Shu replied.

' Looks like I underestimated how difficult it is to bring people in such a short time," Ryder muttered as he sighed.

He was also concerned since he didn't have any ways to show the sketch of the people that were going to cause the blasts either. He couldn't sketch what he saw. He could only tell the guards about the location of the attacks and where the terrorist would sit or be. Even that required him to be personally there.

"Shu, you mind if I borrow your helicopter for a little while right now?" Ryder asked Shu.
