Divinity: Against The Godly System

Chapter 598 Entering Death Domain

Chapter 598: Entering Death Domain

"I’ll arrange for that," Rale nodded as he kept the list back, but he did wonder why this specific kingdom was selected instead of others.

"Ah, that’s right! Isn’t this the kingdom where we kidnapped the Princess?!" He suddenly exclaimed as he realized what this was.

"That’s right. It’s the same Kingdom. I was thinking about going there at least once again. We’ll see how it goes, but it should be a fun trip," Ryder said, confirming Rale’s theory.

"Anyway, Rale. What do you think about this world? Do you think there are more worlds like this?" He further asked, curious.

"More worlds like this? There are. Human World, Death Domain, Undead Region and others," Rale nodded.

"Not that. They are just like different realms in the same vast worlds. I’m asking you if there could be more worlds that have everything different to us. A world where there are no skills and everyone is weak. Or the world where gods live. Have you ever thought about this?" Ryder asked, shaking his head.

" A world of gods? I never thought about that," Rale answered.

Rale and Ryder continued their random conversation as Ryder tried to understand what Rale thought of this world as a whole. As for the conversation, it stretched for over twenty minutes and only stopped when the gates opened.

The Four High Dukes stepped inside the Throne Room, stunned by what was happening. They could see a stranger sitting on the throne while Rale was talking to the stranger happily.

"Who are you? How dare you sit on our Royal Throne?!" High Duke Magna’s figure flickered as he disappeared while appearing before Ryder. He brought out his sword to aim at Ryder. He wasn’t going to kill Ryder but just keep him at the point of his sword.

Unfortunately, things didn’t go as he planned. The man who was sitting on the throne moved even faster as a Scythe appeared in his sword. The Scythe clashed with the Sword.

As High Duke Magna hadn’t expected this speed, he couldn’t resist the strength of Ryder even the least. His sword flew out of his hand, crashing in the distance.

"High Duke Magna! What do you think you’re trying to do by attacking your King?" Ryder asked, grimly

"This voice... King Hades?" Magna let out, stunned. "That scythe as well? Why is your face and your aura different?"

"I was practicing an Aura skill. At the same time, a new disguise skill. I need to stay like this for some time to upgrade my skills. That’s all. But why did you attack me?" Ryder asked after a brief explanation.

"I thought you were someone else. Your aura skill even fooled me," High Duke Magna said as he retreated. "I apologize for what I did."

"Ah, so that’s why. I guess I should’ve given a heads up. Don’t worry about it," Ryder calmly responded. He wasn’t upset at all as he got what he wanted. It worked perfectly.

There weren’t any stray talks, and he could get to the point right away. Moreover, now everyone knew that he was Ryder. That wasn’t all either, as High Duke Magna probably got a taste of his strength.

Ryder was pleased as he saw the stunned look on the face of High Duke Magna. He was sure that the guy must be wondering why he never knew that he was so strong.

That was the same thought in Magna’s face.

’I thought he was weak. But the strength with which the Scythe clashed with my sword, that makes it certainly seem like he’s stronger than me. Could it be that he kept it hidden from us all?’ High Duke Magna thought.

"It’s surprising to see you with a new aura. It’ll take time for us to become familiar with this aura. But it’s certainly a good skill. With this, you should be able to disguise and infiltrate any place you want,’ High Duke Oris said, looking at the aura Ryder.

"That’s right. It’s a pretty decent skill. That’s why I really want to master it. So you’ll see this look of mine for a long time," Ryder replied.

"Did you call us here to tell about this look?" High Duke Magna Mila inquired.

"That’s right. That’s what I wanted to tell you. But that’s only a partial reason. I have another important reason as well," Ryder calmly said.

"What other reason?" High Duke Magna inquired.

"Today, we’re all going to the Death Domain. Let’s return the girl we kept hostage. Their second heir... There’s no need to keep her here anymore. Moreover, we can also show them who’s the leader at this time," Ryder answered.

"Are you sure about this?’ High Duke Oris asked. That’s all he could do as none of them could say no to Ryder, who was now their king. Not that they wanted to refuse.

"I’m sure of it. In fact, we’re going there right now," Ryder let out as he stood up. "Let’s just finish it all when we have the time. I don’t want anyone to utilize this time and create more chaos here."

"Alright," High Duke Magna nodded as he reached out his hand.

Ryder grabbed one of his hands while Rale held the other. As for High Duke Oris, he held the hands of High Duke Eston and High Duke Mila.

All of them disappeared from the Royal Demon Palace and appeared outside the Royal City of the Death Domain.

High Duke Oris stepped forward to break the barrier that was surrounding the city so they could enter.

"Wait," Ryder called out, stopping them. "Let me give it a try instead."

High Duke Oris stepped back, frowning. He was surprised that Ryder was going to break it. He couldn’t help but wonder if the young guy could even do it in the first place.

Fortunately, that question didn’t stay in his mind for a long time as he soon got his answer. A single punch... A single punch was all it took for Ryder to shatter the barrier.

After shattering the barrier, Ryder turned around while smiling. As he turned back, he could see the surprised faces of the High Dukes.

"Let’s enter," he added before he started flying towards the Death Domain Royal Palace. The others also followed behind him, still wondering what was happening today. Ryder was so strong. But how was it that it was only today?

There were many questions in their heads that they had no answer to.

Ryder flew straight to the Royal Palace. Flying through the city brought so many memories back. He had spent a lot of his time here, after all.

When he came here on a mission, he even stayed here.

He could even see the house where he had stayed while flying from above it.

As the barrier was shattered, it started healing itself. But that wasn’t before all the higher ups were alert about an intruder.

The Prince and his Death Generals stepped out of the Palace, wondering who it was that had entered so brazenly.

As they saw in the distance, the Death Prince was able to see the person who was flying towards him.

"The Demon Realm again? God, do these guys never rest? I mean, we haven’t even attacked them yet!" The Prince let out in frustration.

"Could it be that they found our plans?" one of the Death General asked.

"It’s possible as well. But how? And even if they found out, why would they come alone?" The Prince asked, stunned. "That doesn’t matter. I think we’ll soon get our answers. Everyone, prepare for the battle!"

"I’m confused. Who is the one leading them? He doesn’t seem like their King, does he?" Another Death General asked.

...

Ryder and the High Dukes landed in front of the Royal Palace, where the Death Generals were already waiting for them.

"Aww, I knew you would be here to welcome us. I think the relationship between the two empires is improving fast," Ryder said, laughing as he landed before the Prince.

"Hades?" The Death Prince asked, stunned.

"That’s right. Did you expect someone else? Oh, don’t mind my different aura. There’s a reason behind it," Ryder responded. "Also, thanks for the Warm Welcome."

"What warm welcome? We didn’t invite you! You just barged inside! Tell us what you want?" The Prince inquired, rolling his eyes.

"I don’t want anything. I’m just here to return something to you. We’ve decided to forgive that girl that attacked us. But it’ll only be a one time thing. Just think of it as a good gesture," Ryder replied.

"Also, remember, if you ever tried to do something like this again, I will come again. And that time, it won’t be as a guest," he further added as he warned the Death Prince. "The relationship between the two realms is improving. Don’t make it bad again. It’ll be best for you."

He turned around to look at High Duke Eston, "Release the girl."
