Divinity: Against The Godly System

Chapter 52 Ryders suggestion

Chapter 52: Ryder's suggestion

Ryder stepped forth and stood before the Town Lord. He didn’t get down to his knees. He didn’t even bow his head.

"My Lord," He simply greeted.

The Lord Demon frowned as he saw Ryder’s disrespect.

"Why don’t you get down to your knees before the Lord?" The demon standing beside the Town Lord said.

"I apologize, My Lord, but there’s a problem with my leg. Anyways, let me just get straight to the punishment," Ryder said.

"Firstly, My fellow demon who suggested that stupid punishment before me should be killed and wiped off the planet of this Earth," He said.

"Hmm? Wh..." The Woman’s expressions turned ugly as she heard Ryder’s words. She opened her mouth to say something.

"Shut up! Don’t disturb me when I’m talking!" Ryder scolded the woman without giving her a chance to speak.

The woman’s face turned red in anger. The Lord Demon had an amused smile on his face as if he was liking this drama. He was waiting for Ryder’s next words.

"You! Continue," He ordered Ryder.

"Oh right, Back to the topic. The second punishment is for the girl," Ryder said as he pointed towards the girl that was tied by the ropes.

"My suggestion is that the girl should be given to me. I’ll take her with me and show her the true depths of hell," He said.

"You’re an interesting demon, but sorry, I like the idea of her more. You can go back," The Lord Demon told Ryder.

He was waiting for a cruel idea, but he got suggested what he didn’t want.

’This guy is just a lustful demon who wants the prisoner for his own. I wasted my time,’ Lord Demon thought.

"All the male demons of our town come forth. Punish the girl as per the suggestion from before. I’ll watch from my seat," He further said.

"My Lord, I have another suggestion as well. Since you don’t like my first one, I think you’ll definitely like it," Ryder said with an amused smile on his face.

"Hmm? Speak your mind," The Lord Demon said.

"My next suggestion is really unique. I’m sure no one in this town would have even thought about it," Ryder said.

"From the innocent face of the girl, it’s clear that she doesn’t like the bloodshed. So how about we have her watch me slaughter you all? That should be fun, wouldn’t it?" He continued.

"Hmm? Have you gone mad, kid? Or are you with that traitor as well? Imprison him as well," Town Lord ordered the men standing near him.

Both the Soldier Demons came down the stairs with their spears in their hands. There was a massive killing intent that was surrounding their bodies. Even Ryder could feel the killing intent.

"Hey girl, Open your eyes. You wouldn’t want to miss the show that’s about to come,"

Ryder tapped on the head of the girl as he said.

The girl slowly opened her eyes.

Ryder was quite surprised at how beautiful her eyes were. Her eyes were blood red like a vampire, but there was an innocence in her eyes. An innocence that he couldn’t see in the eyes of the other townspeople.

The girl looked like ordinary 17-18 girls from Earth.

Ryder had realized after coming here that in this town that all the male demons had horns on their head while the females didn’t.

The girl opened her innocent eyes and saw a weak-looking person who was covering his head with a robe.

"Who are you?" The girl asked as she opened her red lips.

As she opened her mouth, Ryder managed to see what made her different. The girl had 2 sharp teeth like that of a vampire, which surprised Ryder.

"I’ll tell you later. For now, just watch me kick some ass," Ryder said with a smile.

He stopped focusing on the girl and shifted his focus back to the demons that were coming towards him with their spears.

"I guess you decided to accept my suggestion," Ryder chuckled as he took off the robe from his head and wore it normally.

"H-he doesn’t have horns!" The demons noticed as they exclaimed in surprise.

Even the girl was surprised as her beautiful eyes opened wide in surprise.

The Town Lord, on the other hand, was more surprised than the others.

’Is he one of those high demons?’ He thought with a frown.

The demons in this land had many species, and there were even a few demons who didn’t have horns. They were all part of the higher species that were given more privilege. The town people didn’t know about them.

"I don’t like the blood, but there are times when I have no choice," Ryder said as he brought out the Moon Scythe from his storage ring.

The demons were once again surprised as they saw a Scythe appear out of thin air.

The woman that had suggested the punishment for the girl took a few steps back in fear of the scythe.

"Space Magic? He’s a high demon magician?" Demon Lord was getting more and more surprised.

"You bastard!" The two demon soldiers thrust their spear at Ryder at the same time.

Ryder swung his Scythe in such a way that it looked like he was dancing with his spear.

His scythe clashed with the spears, but he didn’t stop there.

"Flame Blast!" Ryder used his left hand as he used Flame Blast.

Since he had passed the Novice Village, and he was now higher than level 5, there were no restrictions on the use of skills. He could use the skills as many times as he needed as long as he had sufficient mana. The cooldown time was still a problem, though.

The Flame Blast struck the demon on the left.

"Arghhhhh," The Demon’s body started burning in flames as he screamed in pain.

The other demon was surprised as he looked towards his partner, but Ryder utilized this opportunity as he used his Scythe and separated the head of the demon from his body.

"Nice," Ryder exclaimed with a pleased smile on his face.
