Divinity: Against The Godly System

Chapter 220: Enemy of the Kingdom

’ Is this because of my traveling back in time? Is the future and the destinies of this game is changing because of me as well?’ He thought as he frowned.

He ultimately shook his hand as he thanked the Stall Owner for the information.

Ryder started walking away from the Stall. After he got to some distance, he covered his face with a mask that he had purchased just now.

"They already know about the Dungeon, so the adventures here should be the ones that just got here. The ones that got here before should already be on their way to the Dungeons," Ryder muttered as he shook his head. He started walking towards the Dark Cliff directly, which was on the other side of the city in the north.

Ryder reached near the Dark Cliff, but he noticed that there were hundreds of guards surrounding the path to the Dark Cliff.

" Why would the king interfere like this?" Ryder muttered as he frowned.

"Should we just kill all of them?" Rale suggested to Ryder.

"It’s not necessary. We can just go back and fly above their head," Ryder let out as he shook his head.

He turned back, but just then, he heard a notification.

[ The guards have noticed you]

[ Because of the decreased affinity, the guards doubt your intentions]

Ryder smiled wryly as he shook his head.

"I guess they won’t let me go," Ryder muttered, but he still tried leaving.

As soon as he took the first step, he heard a shout from behind, "Stop!"

Ryder turned back and looked at them.

"Do you need something?" he asked.

"I saw you coming this way, but you started leaving after seeing us. You seem suspicious," The guard said.

"I find him suspicious as well. It’s something that just doesn’t make me trust him," another guard said.

"What are you doing here?" the guard asked Ryder.

" I was going to the dungeon. I saw you guys, and I remember that I forgot something behind in the city," Ryder explained.

"Bye guys," He said as he started leaving.

"Stop you bastard! How dare you leave without properly explaining!" The guards started shouting as Ryder began to leave.

" Silence! How dare you speak to his Highness like that!" Rale thundered as his eyes turned darker. A terrifying aura escaped from his body. The aura came like a tsunami that made all the guards fly back and crash on the ground.

[ Warning: You hurt the guards of the city]

[ Relationship with the people of the city has gone down to zero]

[You have become the enemy of the Tiara Kingdom]

[You have received the title: " Enemy of Tiara"]

[ No person here will give you a mission anymore, and people will be scared to come close to you]

"What the heck? I didn’t even do anything! Why am I getting these negatives that the dark players got? Is this that little A.I at play here?" Ryder let out in annoyance.

"Whatever, Go fuck yourself. I’m going to see what you can do by decreasing my favorability with the people of this kingdom. If I can’t establish the guild in this kingdom, then I’ll establish that in another place. If I can’t even do that, I’ll fricking destroy the kingdom and establish my guild there. This game is broken so let me break it even more," Ryder let out in anger as he started walking ahead.

" Rale, you were right. There’s no need for us to take any other way. There’s no one that can stop us in this place anyway," Ryder muttered as he started walking ahead.

He reached near the guards, but he didn’t pass through.

"I already got the punishment for not even attacking by Maya. Might as well do something," Ryder let out as he kicked the guard that had stopped him from peacefully leaving.

[You have attacked the guard again]

[Favorability with the kingdom is zero. It can’t be decreased]

[User received a title: Biggest Enemy of the Kingdom]

[Title: Biggest Enemy of the Kingdom]

[Description: Tiara Kingdom is a peaceful kingdom that has never been in conflict with any kingdom. All kingdoms have a favorable opinion of the kingdom. By attacking the guards again, you disrespected the authority of the King once again. By disrespecting the king again, you have become the Biggest Enemy of the Kingdom]

[Effects: All people of the kingdom will hold hostility towards you]

[ Effects: Normal people of the kingdom will also fear you]

[Effects: You won’t gain negative points for theft committed in this kingdom because if this title]

’Why would I steal anything from this kingdom anyway. This title is useless, but whatever. This kingdom only has one useful thing, and that is the dungeon, and after today, it won’t have that either. I was hoping to establish the guild here because this place was the most peaceful kingdom after the starting kingdom, but whatever,’ Ryder thought as he ignored the notifications from the game and continued walking towards the cliff.

Soon, he reached the end of the cliff and looked down.

He could see many people climbing down the cliff since the dungeon was at the bottom.

"I was right. The players are already here. Oh, would you look at that? He’s here too," Ryder muttered as he clenched his fist. He had noticed a person.

It was the same person that had schemed against Ryder. He had the healing potion, but he lied and made Ryder sacrifice himself by fighting the dragon, whereas that person just drank the potion and collected the rewards.

" I didn’t know you at this point in the game in the last timeline either as we met after a year in the guild. You became a guild member and a friend. We fought so many monsters together, but you bastard, you threw that all away at the last moment. I’ll show you what it means to be killed by a guildmate," Ryder muttered as he looked at the face of that person.

" Rale, I can’t fly anymore. Can you carry me ahead? Let them walk like the insects they are. We’ll go ahead," Ryder told Rale as he glanced back.

Rale nodded his head as he reached out a hand.

Ryder caught the hand of Rale.

Rale started flying, but just as they took to the air, Ryder heard Janus’ voice.

[Ding... A new mission has been issued to the host]

[Mission: Make the Princess of the Tiara Kingdom fall in love with you]

[Time Limit: One month]

[Rewards: 200 Origin Points]

[Punishment for failure: None]

’A new mission? It matches with what I wanted to do before, but it seems impossible now. I already got the title of Enemy of the Kingdom. It’s impossible for me to even get close to the Princess, let alone make her fall for me. It’s fine, though. Although I will lose the origin points rewards, but at least this one won’t have a punishment,’ Ryder thought as he shook his head.

Rale and Ryder flew above everyone else as they ignored the depths of the cliff and the other players that were climbing down the cliff.

"If I’m not wrong, that dungeon should be in this area. That’s how far it was from the cliff. Get down there," Ryder told Rale as he pointed towards a certain point in the cliff.

Ryder and Rale landed on the ground where Ryder had pointed. That location was right in the middle of a dense forest.

"It should be around here. This dungeon is also an underground dungeon. This was why it should’ve been difficult for them to find it so fast," Ryder muttered as he started walking around, trying to find the entrance of the tomb.

"There it is," Ryder said as he saw the stairs going downstairs at what seemed like the giant mouth of a lion.

"Let’s enter," He told Rale as he stepped on the stairs and brought out the Moon Scythe.

Ryder and Rale went down the stairs and found themselves in a hallway that had three paths that lead in three different directions.

"The left one should be the one that leads to the mask," Ryder muttered as he chose the left path. He started walking ahead and soon reached a door.

There were two stone statues that were standing on both sides of the door.

"Enraged Slash!" Ryder let out as he swung his Scythe and cut both the statues in one strike.

There were two keys inside the statues that he discovered after the statues were broken to pieces.

[Discovered the keys of the door]

’ Just like I heard. Last time, while people were wondering how to open the doors, the statues started attacking them. After everyone defeated the statues, they found the keys inside. These keys were then used to open the entrance. So far, it’s the same. No one has entered the dungeon either. Or maybe the one that found the dungeon and entered, chose the wrong path, and died instantly,’ Ryder thought.
