Chapter 284: What are you?
"Alright. You stay outside for some time. I do want to have some private conversation with her. Send her in when she gets here," Ryder told Janus before he closed the door. He walked over to the window and started looking outside.
"Sigh, I have so many memories of alternate timelines that didn’t exist because I reversed the time, yet I don’t even have memories of my own timeline. It’s kinda funny and sad at the same time," he muttered as he sighed.
"Janus, can I ask you a question? What exactly are you? How do you have so many powers? Are you really a god that is bored in heaven and trying to entertain himself through me?" Ryder asked Janus as he walked back to the bed.
[Wrong]
Janus replied with a single word.
"Then what exactly are you? Why do you have so many powers? Why do I have so many powers? Who exactly made this bracelet? Why do you keep toying with me? I thought we were cool after you stopped threatening to kill me and people close to me about our deaths in nuclear blasts, but now you’re wiping my memory. Just what are you trying to do? Just what do you wish to achieve using me?" Ryder asked Janus in a soft tone.
[What does the host think?]
Janus didn’t answer anything. Instead, he asked the question in return.
"I don’t know. I don’t know anything at all. I just have a feeling that you’re not a bad being but the way you behave always makes me doubt my feelings. Despite all you did, I just can’t seem to make myself hate you. Honestly, I am angry, more at myself than I am at you. Just what is wrong with me. Why can’t I seem to hate you?" Ryder asked Janus as he frowned, but he didn’t wait for an answer as he continued.
"After meeting you, my life hasn’t been in my control entirely. Most of my actions are a result of your missions. Even though I have the freedom about how I finish the missions, but still... I don’t know when and how it will end. I should be hating you for making my life like this, yet I can’t bring myself to hate you," Ryder muttered as he sighed.
"Is this because you’re the reason I was able to get my life back? Even if it’s that, that was only a one-time thing. You messed with me so many times. I’m seriously surprised why I don’t feel angry at you. It’s like something, a part inside me that makes me feel like you’re family. Sigh, I guess my brain is really messed up. I wonder if I’ll ever lose my sanity. Just remember to delete my browser history if I lose my sanity, and I’m admitted to a mental hospital because of you," he added as he placed his hand behind his head and sat down.
[Browser History?]
" Ah, nothing. I will delete that myself after I go back," Ryder muttered as he shook his head.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
Ryder sat straight.
"Ah, Devilia. Come on in," Ryder said as he looked towards the door.
The door was opened as Devilia walked inside and closed the door behind her.
She walked over to Ryder and sat beside him.
For a few minutes, no one said a single word. There was silence in the room, which was broken as Ryder opened his mouth after thinking about what he needed to say.
"Ah, Devilia. You know what I said before. I wasn’t lying," Ryder let out softly as he placed his hand over her hand.
"Sigh, I’ve been thinking about this for a long time. I wanted to tell you long ago that I’ve been in love with you since the moment I saw you. I wanted to make you my woman, but I couldn’t say that out loud. Today, when I found out that your life was in danger, I felt scared. I thought that I lost you and I couldn’t even tell you my feelings. I was glad you were safe and sound, but I didn’t want to take the risk of staying silent again. That’s why I told you to be mine in front of everyone," Ryder told Devilia.
" Let me be as clear as I can," he added as he looked deep into her eyes.
"I love you, Devilia. For a moment, forget that I’m a prince. Forget that I have any authority over you. Please think of me as a normal human being and tell me honestly. Do you love me as well?" Ryder asked in full seriousness as he looked into her eyes.
"I... I love you too," Devilia said as she nodded her head. A bright smile appeared on her face.
While Ryder was reminiscing about the notification of his mission being successful, a warm pair of lips suddenly closed his mouth.
Devilia had always been bold, but she was shy as well in certain situations. Now that they had confirmed their relationship, she was back to being bold in front of Ryder. Right after her confession, she kissed Ryder.
Ryder also wrapped his hand around her back as he kissed her back. After kissing for a few minutes, he felt as if he was filled with pleasure. He felt as if his hands were moving on their own as he started taking off her clothes.
Just as Rale had said before, even though Devilia’s moans echoed inside the room, not a single sound reached outside the room. There was complete silence outside the room while there was a storm of euphoria inside the room.
Just like that, two hours passed away before the storm inside the room calmed down. Devilia and Ryder were lying on the bed. None of them had any clothes on their body.
" That was amazing. No wonder people praise it so much," Devilia said as she smiled while looking at Ryder.
" It was certainly good," Ryder muttered as he gave her another kiss before he sat up and started getting dressed.
" It should be the time to leave for Death Domain. I’ll go to High Duke Oris and the others. You take care of the matters of this Duchy. Oh, right. Keep an eye on the matter of the dead Marquis and his Minister handling the Marquis Manor’s matters. I should be back soon. I’ll tell High Duke Eston to stay back in the palace. If you face any problem in the next few days, you can take his help," Ryder told Devilia as he finished getting dressed.
Devilia also got up and started wearing clothes. I’ll take care of everything," she said as she nodded her head.
Ryder left the room and met up with Rale, who looked at him with an interested gaze.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Don’t that me that the news about the walls being soundproof was a lie," Ryder let out as he smiled wryly.
Rale couldn’t help but chuckle as he heard Ryder’s words.
"That wasn’t a lie. I really heard nothing, but it’s obvious," Rale said with a subtle smile on his face.
"Don’t tell anyone. We’re leaving for the Death Domain. It’s time to be serious," Ryder let out as he started walking away from the room. Rale followed after him.
Ryder and Rale met up with other High Dukes.
After some more time, all the preparations were completed.
High Duke Oris held Ryder and Rale’s hands before he disappeared from Devilia’s Palace.
Far away from the Demon Realm existed a place that seemed like an entirely different world.
It was a place that was occupied by Death Dwellers. A place where the biggest Enemy of Demon Realm stayed.
The sky of Death Domain was a lighter shade of green with a tint of blue that made it look strangely charming. There was no sun in the sky, yet there was no lack of light.
Ryder and High Duke Oris appeared just outside a city inside the Death Domain. The city was surrounded by a barrier that seemed to be made from lightning.
Ryder could see the flickering lightning forming a net outside the city.
"That city... Is that the Royal City of Death Domain?" Ryder asked as he frowned.
"Yes. That’s the Death City. It’s the Royal City of Death Domain where Death Envoys and the Royal Family lives," High Duke Oris replied.
"Interesting. Have you ever been here before?" Ryder inquired.
"Yeah, before the War between Death Domain and the Demon Realm, I came here. After that, things started going sideways. The relationship between our two Realms started getting bad, and ultimately, there was the war. It’s my first time coming here after the war," High Duke Oris replied.
"Oh. By the way, Why didn’t we Teleport straight inside their palace? Why are we outside the Death City? We are here to show off our strength and fierceness. It wouldn’t be good to just walk to the Palace," Ryder inquired with a confused look on his face.
