Chapter 228: Death Domain on the Move?

"How did it go?" Rale asked Ryder as he appeared beside him.

Ryder looked at Rale and smiled.

"It went perfect," he said.

"Incredible. Your Highness did great. Now we can put your plan of conquering the whole world ahead," Rale replied as he nodded his head in praise.

' Plan to conquer the world? Well, I guess he's right in a way. To get to the top of Divinity, I need to conquer the whole world of Divinity and become the strongest player,' Ryder thought as he agreed to Rale's statement even though he knew that Rale was talking about a different thing altogether.

"No, You were the one who did great. Your performance was amazing. I'm glad that everything went according to the plan," Ryder said in acknowledgment as he patted Rale's shoulders.

"Where are we going now?" He asked Ryder.

'Well, that's a good question. There are no other dungeons in this Kingdom, and moving to another kingdom just for a dungeon will be a waste of my time. I was only here to hunt and increase my strength. I can do that by hunting. If I'm not wrong, there should be a forest around a nearby city that was known amongst the players as a good hunting ground because it had some high-level beasts,' Ryder thought as he went through all the information, he knew about the details in his memories.

"We're going east. There is a good hunting ground. I'll hunt there for half a day and then go back when it's time to leave," Ryder told Rale as he pointed in a certain direction.

He told Rale to carry him since he could only fly for a few more minutes today.

Rale held Ryder's hand and carried him to the forest Ryder wanted to enter.

Ryder spent the next twelve hours hunting in the forest, the monsters that were stronger than him.

[Level Up]

"That should take me to level 75. It's enough for the day. It's time to leave. We need to go back to the Demon Realm too," Ryder muttered as he looked at his stats, which were looking really pleasing to the eye.

He had Rale carry him to the place where they had come from.

Rale and Ryder reached the first village they had come to when they came to this kingdom. Since the village was near the forest where the portal was supposed to open, they needed to pa.s.s through this place, but as soon as Ryder got there, a frown covered his face.

He saw bodies lying all around the villages. Even the old man that had told Ryder the location of the Windsor City was dead. His body was lying in the center of the town.

Ryder told Rale to land on the ground.

Rale and Ryder stepped into the village.

"What the heck happened here? It hasn't even been a day since we left," Ryder muttered as he frowned.

He looked around to see if there was anyone alive or not.

He went through the village, but he didn't find anyone here who was living.

Rale was also looking around while he kept himself close to Ryder to keep him safe.

"Your Highness, I see some footprints that seem like they belong to the skeletons," Rale suddenly pointed out.

"Skeletons? There is no dungeon nearby as far as I know. They shouldn't be here. The only other reason for them to be here could be the existence of a Necromancer, but that cla.s.s can't be unlocked so soon. There is no way it's a player who will do it even if they get the strength of a Necromancer," Ryder frowned as he thought about what Rale said.

"Based on my a.s.sumption, it's either the people of the Undead Region or the people from the Death Domain. The Skeletons of the Undead Region aren't clever. They wouldn't come here unless someone in a high position in the Undead Region were guiding them. As for the Death Domain, those people can also summon skeletons with ease to finish their tasks," Rale explained.

" The Undead Region? Could it be that the Vampire King followed us here? No, he is too proud. He wouldn't bring skeletons to take care of the opponents. That guy is a force to be reckoned with. He can easily destroy this Village just by moving his fingers. He wouldn't use these tricks like using a skeleton. And if he was here for us, he probably would've caught us by now. He can't be here. The High Dukes are also with him. He won't be here," Ryder let out as he shook his head.

"There are many more clans in the Undead Region. Some of those clans have their ways of coming to this world as well. It's highly possible for them to come here," Rale chimed in with his opinion.

" I get that, but they shouldn't have any reason to be here and attack the citizens of this kingdom unless this village had something they needed. Could it be possible that these guys had a treasure?" Ryder muttered with a suspicious look on his face.

"Wait a minute. Could it be her?" Ryder let out suddenly as he frowned.

"Who?" Rale enquired as he saw the serious expression on his face.

"When I was new in the Demon Realm, and I wasn't crowned the Prince, I was staying at the Palace of Duke Devilia. I went to her forest to hunt alone, leaving the guards outside."

Ryder started explaining about events that transpired before.

"I met a young girl there. That girl was able to use the beings of the Undead Region for her battle and to save herself from my attacks. She also had the heritage weapon of the Death Emperor. The Death Emperor was killed by my master during the great war of the Demon Realm, as you can probably remember. It is clear that the girl was from the Death Domain. She tried to kill me, but I defeated her. She escaped in the end," Ryder explained.

"Anyway, she seemed like she was looking for something when she met me, and our battle began. If she can enter the Demon Realm to find something, I'm sure their people can enter the Human Realm for treasures too. Those people can definitely be behind this slaughter," Ryder let out as he frowned.

"You were attacked? Why didn't you tell me?" Rale let out in concern.

"It was only once, and I was completely fine. I had forgotten about it after I became the Crown Prince since other matters took my attention. Anyway, as I said, I was completely fine, and there is no way the Death Domain could harm me. That's why I didn't tell you guys. Now it is a serious matter, though. If it was actually them, then it means that they are starting to get active and restless for something. Something big might be on the horizon," Ryder let out as he shook his head.

" I am over fifty percent sure that it's the work of people from the Death Domain. We can't find any of them here. I can't even sense their aura. They must have left already," Rale said.

"Yeah, they probably came here for something. They got what they wanted. They killed everyone after that and left," Ryder agreed to Rale's opinion.

"Let's leave. There is nothing we can do since they already left," Ryder let out as he started walking towards the forest.

He and Rale reached the place where they appeared when they left the portal.

"There is no one around, is there?" Ryder inquired as he looked at Rale. He didn't want to use the portal when someone was nearby.

"There is no one here. I don't feel anyone in the surroundings," Rale replied with full confidence.

Ryder nodded as he brought out the key to the portal and raised it in the sky.

The spatial portal opened before them.

Ryder and Rale entered the portal and left the world. They appeared in the Demon Realm again.

Ryder closed the portal and locked it again as he kept the keys back. He left the underground and went to the ground floor.

Rale escorted Ryder to his bedroom.

"It will be morning in a few hours. We will leave with High Duke Milana. Rest for some time," Ryder told Rale as he walked inside his bedroom.

Ryder closed the door and went to the bed. He laid on the bed and logged out. Since he had a few hours of free time, he decided to spend it in the real world and to have something to eat in the meantime.

Ryder woke up in the real world and removed the Divinity Gla.s.ses. It was evening at the moment. The dinner time was going to be in an hour.

Ryder got off the bed, and we went for a shower.

He read a few news headlines after coming out of the shower to keep him updated on what was happening in the world
