Divinity: Against The Godly System Chapter 27 Another Beginning

Chapter 27: Another Beginning

"Come-on Alice. It was circ.u.mstances and I wasn't able to call you. I already told you everything honestly. Also, I haven't eaten anything since the morning." Ryder said in an apologetic tone.

He was wondering if his apology would work out or not when the door was opened.

"I've already prepared dinner. Go to the dining table; I'll serve." She said.

She walked past him and walked towards the kitchen.

'Sigh, she's such a nice girl. I'm really sorry for lying.' Ryder thought as he walked towards the dining table.

"Have you eaten?" Ryder asked as Alice served the dinner.

"Yeah. Did you think that I would wait for you?" Alice snorted with an annoyed look on her face as she sat on another chair near him.

"That's good." Ryder smiled as he continued gulping down the food like a hungry beast. He finished it in just 20 minutes before he stood up and walked back to his room.

After Ryder left, Alice smiled as she took a serving for herself and started eating as well.

Ryder was sitting in his room as he looked at the Divinity Gla.s.ses. He didn't bother reading the manual again as he already knew everything there was to know about the gla.s.ses.

He lay on his bed and wore the gla.s.ses as he got ready to enter the world of Divinity.

"Divinity Scan!" Ryder said in a low voice.

"Please keep your eyes open for the retina scan." A female voice appeared in his head.

Ryder had gone through the same process before, so he wasn't shocked as he heard the voice.

The gla.s.ses turned on and started scanning his retina. Once the scan was completed, he would be saved as the owner of the gla.s.ses. It was a security feature that allowed only him to access the gla.s.ses. It was so that no one else could use his account or his gla.s.ses. It would make stealing the gla.s.ses useless.

"Scan Completed! Would you like to enter the world of divinity?" The feminine voice again appeared in his head.

"Take me to the Divinity," Ryder said the second command.

As soon as he spoke, he instantly lost all control of his body and all his senses. His room disappeared and he now found himself standing in a pitch-black room.

He looked ahead and found a girl floating in the air. She looked to be 12-13 years old and had short greenish hair.

"Maya?" He glared at the girl floating in front of him and clenched his fist.

"Welcome to the world of Divinity. I am your artificial intelligence guide, Maya. I will help you with the registration. Please select your Character Name."

"My name is Hades," Ryder answered her. He wanted to beat the h.e.l.l out of Maya for messing with him last time, but he knew that he wouldn't even be able to touch her.

"Hades… Name registered. Please customize the stats of your character. You have been given 25 stats points" The A.I girl known as Maya further said.

A screen appeared in front of Ryder. There were 6 Stats on the screen with a 0 in front of all 6 of them.

A plus and minus symbol was also placed in front of each of the characteristics. These 6 Stats that he could use skill points on were Strength, Defense, Stamina, Intelligence, Speed and Dexterity.

Ryder thought seriously for a few minutes before he started tapping on the plus icons.

After a short few minutes, he was finally done.

The screen in front of him looked much different now.

He had used 5 points on Strength, 4 on defense, 4 points on speed, 4 points on stamina, 3 points on dexterity and 5 points on Intelligence.

He decided to take a different route this time. He didn't want to be only a warrior. He decided to be someone who can use magic. From his previous experience in Divinity, he already learned how to use swords and thought that he could utilize that knowledge this time as well.

It was magic that he wanted to learn this time.

There was another reason for him to try to learn magic. It was to pa.s.s the Novice Village as fast as he could and from his previous knowledge, he knew that magic would help him big time.

"I'm done," Ryder informed Maya.

"Are you sure? " Maya asked with an expressionless look on her face.

"Yes," Ryder again nodded his head.

"Would you like to make adjustments to your looks?" She asked.

" Yes," Ryder replied.

A mirror and a new screen appeared in front of him, which allowed him to adjust his physical looks.

Ryder didn't change much, but a few key things. He changed his hair color from their original black to Silver. He changed his eyes to blue from their original hazel color. Other than that, he kept everything the same.

"Registration complete. You will be sent to the novice village. You currently have no cla.s.s. After pa.s.sing the novice village, you will be able to select your cla.s.s." Maya informed him before she disappeared in front of his eyes.

The scene distorted as Ryder found himself in the novice village.

It was a place that all players were sent to so that they could learn basic skills and get used to Virtual Reality before going to the real adventures.

Players could get some simple quests in the novice village to increase their levels and when they got to level 5, they were allowed to leave.

Ryder appeared at the entrance of the Novice Village and took his first step inside.
