Divinity: Against The Godly System Chapter 382 Murder

Chapter 382: Murder

The maid's face kept turning paler and paler as her blood was sucked from her body.

Her struggle got weaker with each pa.s.sing second until she couldn't move at all. All her blood was sucked as she died.

"Rrruh!"

Miyali bit off the neck of the maid, unable to control her strength as she couldn't suck more blood.

She freed the body, which dropped to the ground.

As her hunger was satiated, the girl returned to her senses, only to realize the horrible thing she had done as she saw the blood-covered face of hers in the mirror.

"What did I do!" She let out as her face turned pale in guilt.

She hurriedly wiped her lips and all the blood.

Looking down at the body, she started muttering like she was crazy. "I killed her! I killed her! I need to tell Hades! Only he can tell me what to do!"

She started running towards the door.

Closing the door behind her, she left.

She ran all the way to the center of the palace, hoping to find Ryder.

While she was running through the corridor, she saw Miku.

"M-Miku! Where is Hades?!" She called out as soon as he saw Miku.

"You are a guest of His Highness, but still, you should be respectful. You can't call him by his name," Miku chided Miyali, refusing to understand her urgency.

"I-i am sorry. Where is His Highness? I urgently need to meet him!" Miyali insisted.

Hearing her urgency, Miku felt like something was wrong, but she knew she couldn't tell her where Ryder was. She couldn't just say that he snuck out of the Realm. Thus, she decided to lie about his whereabouts.

"His majesty worked all night, so he's sleeping. What do you have to talk to him about? If you have any problem, I'll help you?" Miku asked.

"Ah, the food... Maid... She..." Miyali struggled to find an explanation as she mumbled random words.

"The maid? Food? Oh, is the food not to your liking? I'll put another maid on the city. You should've told me before if you were having problems. Don't worry; I'll instruct them to be careful," Miku said, misunderstanding her."

"But His Highness..." Miyali muttered, still trying to meet Ryder.

"Don't worry; I will tell His Highness when he wakes up. He would get back to you as soon as he wakes up," Miku said, comforting Miyali.

"Go back and rest now. Tell us if you need anything else," she continued.

Miyali looked hesitant, but she nodded her head. "Please tell her to meet me as soon as he is free."

She turned back and left.

She decided against telling Miku that she had killed the maid unintentionally. She didn't know how she could explain it. She left it for Ryder to explain.

Ryder stepped out of the Royal City of Tiara Kingdom.

Even though he had only told Aslina to escort him out of the palace, she went one step further and escorted Ryder to the city exit.

She even told Ryder to take one of their Royal Carriages for his journey; however, Ryder refused.

Traveling with Rale was faster. He didn't want to give that up for a bit of comfort inside the carriage. Time was of the essence for him.

Ryder left the city and soon disappeared from the sights of Aslina.

After he was sure that Aslina couldn't see him, he stopped.

"Rale, are you here?" Ryder called out as he looked around.

"I'm here, Your Highness."

Rale's voice came from behind him. Looking back, he found Rale standing in the place which was empty a few seconds ago he saw.

"You're really good at hiding and clearing your tracks. I am overestimating myself if I believe that I can understand the true extent of the powers of such a boss level guy. I can't even comprehend how the dragon was so powerful, which was much weaker," Ryder muttered as he laughed.

He reached out his hand towards Ryder.

"Let's continue on our way," he continued.

Rale nodded his head as he caught the hands of Ryder.

Rale started flying in the air, carrying Ryder with him. His speed kept increasing with time as he flew towards the destination.

They traveled for an entire day. Only then did they reach the city where Shu was in. Despite flying so fast, they only managed to reach that place when it was already evening.

Ryder landed on the ground with Rale outside the city as it wasn't feasible to fly inside the city without the risk of attracting attention.

He entered the city with Rale following closely behind him.

[I am inside the city. Where are you?]

Ryder sent a system message to Shu.

[Oh, you're here. I was just about to log out, thinking that you won't come today as well. If you're at the entrance of the city, walk two hundred steps to the front and take a left...]

Ryder received a message; however, it was incomplete.

"Hah, the limitation of words on a message," Ryder chuckled as he saw the message, understanding why it was incomplete. It was because there was a limitation on the number of words that could be sent at once.

[...There, you will see a bar. I'll reach there in five minutes. If you reach there before me, wait. If you're late, then I'll wait.]

The second message arrived soon after.

Ryder followed the directions in the message and reached the bar.

Opening the door, he stepped inside. He could see quite a few players inside the bar; however, he had turned off his Nametag. Because of that, his name wasn't being shown above his head. No one could see his name either since he was a higher level than them.

Ryder, on the other hand, could see the nametags of others even if they set it on hide since he was a higher level player.

"Hydra21, Kingslayer, LokiMama, FattyJoe, s.e.xyDiva, ImNotaSimp, hah, I see a few familiar names. My fellow guildmates," Ryder muttered as he saw the names of a few guildmates from the original timeline, which was erased now.

"There you are!"

As Ryder was reminiscing about the past after seeing the old faces, he heard a familiar voice.

Looking behind him, he saw Shu.

"So you got here faster than me. Nice," Shu chuckled as he patted the shoulder of Ryder.

"Oh, you brought your friend as well. I remember him from the first time. Will he not take part in the quest like last time as well?" he asked.

"Nah, he's just here to accompany me. He won't take part in the quest. At Least he won't try to," Ryder replied, shaking his head.
