Divinity: Against The Godly System

Chapter 483: Smuggling

Even though Ray kept calling Ryder, he took all necessary precautions and used another phone to call him and not the phone which had the number known by everyone. Even after all that, the signal of his calls was keeping it encrypted to add additional protection.

"He isn’t picking up," Ray muttered as he once again heard the call being disconnected after it rang for a while.

"Sigh, this guy is really upset, I guess."

"What can I do as a form of apology? How can I help him when I’m myself in danger..." He wondered as he frowned.

"Apparently, the bad guys are after my family and me to get an answer from me about my Ryder. If I’m not wrong, my own organization will also be suspicious of me. It doesn’t make sense for them to free me like this. What can I do?"

He kept thinking as he tried to come up with a plan.

"I need to give up my source. That will be the only solution, but I can’t give him up. I can only forge my source and its death story. But I still need some help. There will be too many eyes on me," he muttered as he tried to think of a plan. After some time of thinking, his eyes lit up as he thought of a person that could help him.

He picked up his second phone and dialed a number.

Ryder had placed his phone on silent after being annoyed at all the calls. He put his phone to the side as he laid on the bed.

He laid on the bed and placed the Divinity Glasses on his eyes.

"Take me to Divinity!"

After a long travel, Ryder had finally reached the royal City of Death Domain inside the world of Divinity.

He was here on a mission to kill to finish his task to become the Emperor. Throughout the journey, he had dodged most of the cities in his path, but as he got near the Royal City, he stopped dodging the cities.

Age needed to enter the Death Domain Royal City, and he needed more information before that and an understanding of the behavior of the people of Death Domain.

The place where he could get the best idea of it was in the cities that were closest to the Royal City.

He needed to understand their culture and behavior. He had done all that throughout his journey, and after finishing it, he finally reached the Royal City.

The Royal City of the Death Domain had a giant barrier, as he had seen last time when he had come here previously.

The barrier prevented anyone who wasn’t from the Death Domain from entering.

There was one path that led inside the city, which was for the official purpose from where envoys of other Realms could enter to dodge the barrier.

It was made so that the Death Domain wouldn’t need to stop the entire barrier and reactive it whenever a foreign guest came. It was hard after all.

That’s why they had left some gap in the barrier. The Demon Realm’s Royal Barrier was also made by the same guy, so it had the same thing.

These entrances were a weak point of a barrier from which enemies could also pass through; that’s why heavy security was placed on the entrance to make sure no one without permission could enter. Not only that but traps were also placed, which only the High ranking protectors knew how to pass.

Ryder stood in front of the barrier.

"It’s repaired. Pretty fast," He muttered as he smiled wryly. He could remember how High Duke has broken the barrier within a few attacks to allow them entry last time.

Unlike that, this time, he couldn’t have it that easy.

If he tried breaking the barrier, not only would the infiltration be known by the Death Domain, but it would also make them alert. They would search the whole city, which would be a mess for him.

His face was already hidden because of the disguise treasure he had collected. The mask had allowed him to change his face.

He had worked really hard to find this mask to make sure no one in Divinity knew what Hades actually looked like.

Fortunately, this mask was coming in more handy here.

He was disguised as someone from the Death Domain that he had seen in the last city he stopped at.

It was a fat and chubby man that seemed like he was quite wealthy.

When Ryder was in the last city, he had killed the chubby man who tried to create trouble for him. After killing the man in secret, he hid the body of the man and stole all his clothes before he took the man’s place.

At the moment, he seemed like a chubby man with long white hair and big cheeks. His big round eyes were looking at the barrier.

"I might have the looks, but I still need to enter. The only path of the entrance is a mess. Can I even enter without being caught? I got some instructions from Rale and the others but still, why do I feel like this might be a mess?" He wondered as he gazed towards the left where the path of the entrance was.

He started walking towards the path which led to the entrance.

"What’s happening?"

As Ryder was walking towards the entrance, he noticed a hole in the barrier.

A few people could be seen transferring some boxes from inside the Royal City to outside through the hole.

"Hah? Smuggling?"

A smile formed on his face as he saw that.

Apparently, some people here had found a way to make a hole in the barrier to probably smuggle items outside the royal City.

"It was strange, though. They were a hole in the barrier which protects the city. That, too, not long after the Demon Realm had broken inside? How could the Death Domain allow it? How was it that they didn’t know yet?" He wondered.

He observed the whole debacle from a distance and soon realized something.

The hole wasn’t permanent. It was healing and closing in, but whenever it closed in too much, one of the men used a strange torch-like artifact to open it once again.

"Ahh, I get it. They didn’t know because it isn’t permanent. They smuggle things and then the barrier heals. No one knows. Interesting approach," Ryder thought as he nodded his head in understanding.

The answer was right before his eyes. There were still some questions as to why these people had to snuggle stuff out. Was the Royal City not allowing some trade? Or was it something else? Or was it to get robbed items outside the Royal City? None of the questions mattered.

What actually mattered was that Ryder had found a way to sneak inside. He needed that torch or to kill them all to sneak inside.

But killing them all at once seemed tough when they all had such strength.

He was sure that if he tried, it wasn’t going to turn out the way he planned.

It wasn’t that easy to kill so many people together.

There were two options before him. One was to wait a bit to try to steal the item so he could sneak inside later.

The other was to go through the tougher part. He was told how he could successfully enter through that path, but it still possessed risks.

As for the second option, it was to wait and try to steal. It was going to waste a bit more time, and it was also a bit risky but not as much as the first option.

He decided to go with the second option as he remembered the face of the person who held the item.

It was a bulky man that seemed to be telling everyone to be fast.

A carriage could also be seen nearby inside which these men were placing these boxes. Two horses were attached to the carriage, ready to pull it when everything was loaded in the carriage.

Behind these carriages, a much better-looking horse was also standing with an armor around it, looking like a stronger and more expensive horse compared to the horses that were tied to the carriage.

"Alright, that’s the last box! Place it inside the carriage!" The bulky men told his men who were carrying out the last carriage through the opening.

The men placed the box in the carriage before they looked towards the bulky man who seemed like the leader here.

"We’re done, boss. All boxes are inside the carriage. Should we leave?" One of the men asked the bulky man.

"You guys go ahead. I still need to wait for Kaxia. He’s keeping an eye on the guards to make sure they can’t see us," the bulky man replied.

"You guys leave; I’ll come back with him," he added.

The men agreed as they entered the carriage and left.
