Chapter 267: Death Strikes Ho
" Absolutely Not. Your Highness, it would be best if you didn’t try casting it at . There is a big strength difference between you and at this point. Even though I won’t resist if you try, but it’s still impossible. You might even be injured if sothing went wrong," Rale warned Ryder as he shook his head.
"Don’t worry. Nothing will happen to . I’m doing it anyway, and I’m not going to listen to anything. Don’t worry. I have a Treasure that can protect from that. Nothing will happen to . Just don’t resist, and I’ll be fine," Ryder said as he made up an excuse. He believed that the skill wouldn’t even work if he doesn’t satisfy the criteria, but it definitely shouldn’t harm him.
"Your Highness has a Treasure for that?" Rale inquired with a curious look on his face.
"Yeah, Don’t worry. On the count of three, I’ll begin. Be ready," Ryder said as he closed the conversation without giving Rale any chance to oppose. He had already made an excuse to make Rale uncertain, and he didn’t give ti for Rale to even think about it.
"Alright. As long as it doesn’t harm you," Rale affird, nodding his head.
Ryder took a deep breath as he started chanting the spell.
"O Lord of Demons, Give the strength,
Let take the happiness and pain of all your followers that I wish,
...
...
Give their thoughts and give them my though,
The world shall show through their eyes,
Eyes of Changing, Thought of Soro
Let this be the wish of a Demon,
Dreimaia!"
As soon as Ryder finished the spell, notification started sounding in his head.
[You have used the Spell Dreimaia]
[ A unique spell detected that could be saved in Skills]
[ The Special Grade Spell doesn’t have any Elental Affinity Requirent]
[Would you like to learn the spell]
[Y/N]
Ryder looked at the notification in surprise.
’Interesting. Even after chanting the spell, I can’t use it, but fortunately, I got a skill to learn. Just chanting the spell gave the option to learn it? Is this because of so specialty?’ Ryder thought as he frowned.
’Is it because it’s specially made for demons by the Second Demon Emperor? If I can learn skills like that, it would be pretty good. I should investigate about it,’ he continued as he tapped on yes to learn the skill.
[ The Special Skill Dreimaia has been learned]
Ryder tapped on the skill to see it’s description in the ga.
[ Skill: Dreimaia]
[Type: Active Skill]
[Skill Level: Level 0]
[Proficiency: 0% ]
[Skill Cooldown: None]
[Description: The Caster links his thoughts with the thoughts of the people he cast this skill on. The caster get access to the vision of the one affected by the skill along with an access to thoughts]
The description also showed the limitations of the skills which he was the sa as Rale had told him. The conditions to successfully cast the skill weren’t specific, but the ones that were specifically made Ryder give up on the idea to cast the spell.
"What the heck, even the lowest mana cost is so high. Is it even possible to cast this skill? It’s impossible. There’s no way I can get that much mama even if I was a level thousand player in my past tiline. This thing is soo..." Ryder was feeling frustrated as he saw the impossible-looking mana cost.
"Forget it. I think you were right. It is impossible to cast this spell at the mont. I’m not ready. Let’s just forget about it and go back," Ryder nodded his head as he turned back to leave.
Rale moved faster as he wanted to open the door for Ryder. Ryder couldn’t help but smile as he slowed down, letting Rale do what he wanted as he moved to the side.
Rale reached the door and opened it, but as soon as the door was opened, Rale’s expressions changed. He brought his hands closet to his chest as if trying to protect his chest.
Ryder couldn’t see anything, but he did see Rale making a strange movent of his hands after opening the door. Only a second had passed. Ryder couldn’t even open his mouth to ask what was happening as he saw Rale flying back.
Rale flew back, but it didn’t seem like he was intentionally flying. It was as if a fist had landed on his chest, making him fly back.
Rale crashed on the wall at the back, but he didn’t stop there. The force of the impact was so fierce that even the wall was broken as Rale flew out of the palace.
Ryder just watched everything with his mouth wide open as he watched Rale fly outside. He looked back to see who was standing outside the room, and his mouth opened wide in shock.
He saw soone he never expected to be here. It was soone he wanted to et but not like this.
There was a Skeleton standing outside the door and not a simple skeleton. The Skeleton was a Pitch Black in color. There was a strange tattoo on the skull of the Skeleton.
Ryder was taken aback as he saw the Skeleton.
"Black Skeleton King? How?" Ryder muttered in shock as he took a step back for so strange reason.
’The heck, why am I even getting scared. I don’t need to be scared. It’s not like running can help if he’s going to attack . Might as well...’ Ryder thought as he stopped.
He realized that it must be sothing like his Intimidation skill that the Black Skeleton King was using. His Crown should’ve stopped all ntal attacks, but this probably wasn’t dangerous, so it wasn’t stopped. It might also be that this skill didn’t actually target his mind. It might be sothing that had a similar effect but didn’t affect the mind, so it wasn’t affected by his crown.
After realizing it, Ryder activated his own Intimidation Skill to cancel out the effect. He also brought out his Moon Scythe out of his inventory as he got ready to defend himself until Rale ca back. He knew that Rale wasn’t going to stay down just from this. It wouldn’t take long before Rale was back. He just needed to defend himself and made sure that he didn’t die. Everything else was going to be taken care of by Rale.
This commotion was also going to attract the attention of the High Dukes. Ryder knew that so of the guards were outside the palace. It was highly probable that High Duke Eston’s mind was connected to them too. They would definitely see Rale crashing on the ground. It wouldn’t take long for them to realize that sothing was wrong. They would run to this place, and everything would be taken care of.
Even the Black Skeleton King couldn’t survive the attack of a High Duke.
The only thing that shocked Ryder was how Black Skeleton King was able to enter inside.
It shouldn’t have been possible. The guards must have caught him if he ca openly. The only other possibility was that soone on the inside helped the Black Skeleton King. It was either that or a possibility that soone teleported inside. That would’ve also needed the cooperation from soone on the inside with the Teleportation formation creation.
Ryder also had another assumption.
’That girl in Devilia’s forest... When she left, she used so strange formation too. Sothing that helped her Teleport and leave. It must be sothing like that. This place just has Death Domain spies. The Death Domain is definitely involved,’ Ryder thought as he gripped his moon Scythe firmly.
He saw the Skeleton King appearing before him instantly and punch towards his face.
"Transform!" Ryder muttered as he used the Transformation ability of the Moon Scythe. This ability of the Moon Scythe allowed Ryder to change the Moon Scythe to anything he wanted as long as it was a weapon or a shield.
Ryder used this to transform the Moon Scythe into a shield, which he brought closer to his face to protect himself from the fist of the Black Skeleton King.
He knew that he couldn’t stop the damage, but as long as it wasn’t an instant kill, his Ruler of Nature might be able to help him.
Ryder kept his shield in front of his face as he braced himself for the impact.
This was the mont he was really nervous since he knew that if he were killed in one hit, he would have to repeat the last day, which he really hated a lot. He would have to arrange for everything again and get everyone back together, which he didn’t want to do once again. It was just too much.
Ryder knew that this revival ability was useful, but he also knew that if he kept using that, he would one day go crazy because of repeating the sa things again. Janus had also warned him to use this ability sparingly.
