Divinity: Against The Godly System Chapter 289

"We didn't Teleport straight inside because it's impossible to Teleport inside. You see the giant lightning barrier? This obstructs with the Teleportation. It's impossible to Teleport straight inside without getting seriously injured," High Duke Oris responded as he looked at the flickering lightning net that surrounded the city.
"Is this similar to our barrier? From what I know, our Royal City also has a similar barrier that prevents Teleportation inside. Only Demons can Teleport inside and outside. Similarly, only Death Dwellers should be able to Teleport inside and outside here, am I right?" Ryder asked as he found similarities between this barrier and the barrier that was covering their Royal City.
As the barrier needed a large amount of resources to maintain constantly, these kinds of barriers were only used in Royal Cities.
"Yeah. It's kind of similar. The same person made both the barriers after all," High Duke Oris muttered.
" Same Person?" Ryder let out in confusion.
"Yeah. Neither a demon nor a Death Dweller made the two barriers. It was made by someone else," High Duke Oris explained. "Anyway, that's for a different time. We should be entering now."
"How can we enter the city with that Giant Barrier?" Ryder asked as he frowned.
"It's impossible to Teleport inside, but we aren't going to Teleport. We are going to blow a hole in that barrier and enter while the Barrier repairs itself. When we're done here, we can just Teleport outside since the barrier doesn't prevent Teleportation going outside. It only blocks Teleportation coming inside," High Duke Oris said as he smirked.
"Interesting. Are these barriers that easy to break? I seriously worry about the safety of Demon Realm now if these barriers are breakable," Ryder let out as he smiled wryly.
"These barriers aren't that easy to break, but for people like the Death Envoys and us, these barriers are breakable as long as they keep attacking at the same point constantly. It might take a few minutes, though," High Duke Oris said as he pulled a bow out of his Spatial Storage.
" You use a bow?" Ryder inquired as he saw the beautiful bow.
"Yeah. I'm pretty good at it as well. Anyways, I'm just using it because it's easier to strike the same point in the barrier with a bow and an arrow," High Duke Oris said as he smiled.

He aimed the arrow towards the barrier and fired. While the first arrow was still midway, High Duke Oris fired another arrow.
One after another, he kept shooting out the arrows. In just a second, he managed to shoot around ten arrows, all of which managed to hit the same spot on the barrier.
Just as the tenth arrow hit the barrier, a giant opening appeared in the barrier.
The striking of the arrows on the barrier had also alerted the Death Dwellers inside the Royal Death City.
High Duke Oris held Ryder's hand and started flying towards the opening of the Barrier. Rale followed closely behind as his beautiful wings moved with the wind.
The three of them entered the city through that opening just before the opening closed as the barrier repaired itself.
High Duke Oris landed on the ground just inside the city.
As soon as Ryder's feet touched the ground, a notification appeared in front of him.
"What the heck? What class update? Is this some bug that's stopping me from getting experience?" Ryder muttered as he frowned.
He opened his stats screen to see what it was all about.
As he opened his stats, his mouth opened wide in shock with what he saw.

Ryder looked at his status screen for a brief moment, getting even more shocked.
'Just how did I become level hundred out of nowhere? Did Janus give me some crazy amount of Exp in the time I don't remember? Was that the reward of the mission I performed in the time forgotten?' Ryder thought as his frown became even deeper.

' No wonder I couldn't get the exp just now. There's a compulsory class upgrade available at level hundred, and it's impossible to get exp without going through it. Sigh, ten thousand exp points wasted. If I had known about this, I should have accepted the level upgrade before coming here,' A deep sigh escaped his mouth, making High Duke Oris look at him with concern.
" Is something wrong?" High Duke Oris asked Ryder.
"Ah?" Ryder came out of his daze as he heard High Duke Oris's voice. "It's nothing. Just wait a few seconds."
He opened his character upgrade screen and saw a notification there.
He tapped on yes.

"Two class-specific skills. Not bad," Ryder muttered as he smiled.
He tried using his Blood Demon Wings to see how they looked.
As soon as he used the skill, two black wings appeared behind his back. There was a strange red pattern all around the wings that made them look devilish charming. The Wings were similar to the wings of Rale, but they were giving a strange bloody aura that was enough to intimidate even Rale.
"The Blood Demon Wings," Rale muttered in shock as he took a step back.
"Your Highness, please hide the wings. We can't let the Death Domain people know that you're from the Blood Demon Species. If they find out about it, they can use it to sabotage you. Only the Dukes and High Dukes know about it, and we have all taken an oath not to tell anyone about it because we know how damaging it can be," High Duke Oris told Ryder as he hurried him to hide the wings.
Ryder canceled the skill immediately, and the wings disappeared.
"There will be chaos everywhere if the normal citizens find out that their Prince is a Blood Demon. We definitely can't let our enemies know about this," Rale told Ryder as he calmed himself down.
" I'll keep that in mind," Ryder let out as he nodded his head. He had forgotten entirely that his Species was High Demon, but even inside that, he was a Blood Demon.
Blood Demons were also a part of High Demons, but they were hated by everyone, and people feared them for their ruthless history. Almost all Blood Demons were extinct now, so it was understandable that it was going to be chaotic if people find out about this. Now that he was reminded about it, he decided to make a note to himself.
"Let's continue ahead," he told High Duke Oris.
"Hold my hand. We are teleporting straight outside their Palace," High Duke Oris said as he reached out his hand.
"Teleporting? Oh right. I guess you can Teleport now that we are inside the barrier," Ryder muttered as he held High Duke Oris' hand. Rale did the same.
All three of them disappeared and appeared outside the Royal Palace of the Death Domain.
As they appeared there, they saw all four Death Envoys standing outside the entrance of the palace.
"You took a really long time to get here after breaking our barrier. I guess the Great High Duke of Demon Realm is really getting old," One of the Death Envoy muttered in a mocking tone.
" That's not it. I was just taking the time to see the city that we are going to destroy if we don't get a satisfying answer," High Duke Oris let out as he smirked.

His Pet | Leatherface X OC (16+)
"Ohhhh, who's this again?" The creep asked. The one with the chainsaw shrugged quickly, looking to his right. I felt my heart jumping out of my stomach and my adrenaline pumping. "Bubba's got a girlfriend!" The creep bounced up and down, chanting that stupid shit. "P-please..." I begged. I looked into the killer's eyes. He looked.. embarrassed? He has emotion? Is that why he's not killing me? I saw him reach out to open the lock but his brother shoved him back, grabbing the lightweight chainsaw as he did. "Either sex... or the saw, Leatherface." His brother held up a chainsaw. I let out a small scream. "Le-leather... f-face?" I gasped, trying to somehow earn more sympathy. He looked at me and nervously fiddled with his tie. Please, dear God, please.... show emotion any emotion! -Warning-SwearingSexual content Sexual tension GoreKillingBloodBad humor;)
