Divinity: Against the Godly System Chapter 509

Chapter 510 - 506: On Time

A big army advanced towards the border of the Demon Realm, prepared to participate in their first-ever fight without their King. 

The Demon Realm had gone to many battles, the last being against the Death Domain many many years ago. 

That battle proved to be the greatest battle that changed a lot of things for the Death Domain and for the Demon Realm. 

Even though it ended with the victory of the Demon Realm, the Demon King and the Death King both disappeared after that war. 

While the people in Demon Realm believed that their King killed the Death King and, seeing no enemy strong enough to threaten the Demon Realm left, he left the Demon Realm to travel the world to find worthy opponents. 

Whereas the people of Death Domain assumed that the Death King and the Demon King were both dead. 

Both sides were assuming things since no one knew what exactly happened that day. All they knew was that the Death King was most certainly dead; otherwise, he would have joined the war, preventing their defeat. 

At the border of the Demon Realm, an assault had already started. 

A portion of the Demon Realm army was already there, led by the Marquis and the Dukes. 

Until now, the enemies hadn't managed to break inside the Demon Realm because of the barrier surrounding the Demon Realm in its entirety. 

The enemies were from the Spirit Realm; thus, they couldn't pass through the barrier. The only way to enter the Demon Realm was by breaking the barrier that was protecting this place. 

But breaking the barrier wasn't easy. At Least it couldn't be achieved without putting in much time and effort. It wasn't called the strongest Empire here for no reason after all. 

Unfortunately, the strengths of the Spirit Realm weren't weak either. Moreover, they had been continuing their assault for over a day now. It didn't seem like the barrier could last for much longer. And once the barrier was broken, the Spirit Realm armies would rush through, starting the war. 

On one side of the barrier stood the Armies of Spirit Realm, attacking ruthlessly. On the other side of the barrier stood their opponents, the Demon Realm warriors. 

"The barrier won't last long, I think," Duke Mikala commented as he watched the barrier's light dimming. 

"You're right. It wouldn't last much longer," Duke Devilia said, frowning. 

She was dressed in her warrior outfit, covered in Armor that provided her some level of protection. 

"Do you think the reinforcements from the Royal City would be here on time?" One of the Dukes asked. 

There were five Dukes and sixteen marquis present at the site, waiting for the barrier to break, preparing for what was to come. 

" They should've been here by now, honestly. We informed them long ago. I don't know what's taking them so long," another Duke replied. 

"Do you think our new Prince is getting cold feet and taking longer to order a departure?"

"Who knows. All I know is that they should come with the reinforcements from the Royal City fast. If they don't come, the trouble that will follow us will be much bigger. 

"Yeah, The enemy army outnumbered us. Moreover, they are from the Spirit Realm. In their peak days, they used to be comparable to our Demon Realm in strength."

"You're right. It wasn't until the war when they were destroyed. It had been a long time since they went into hiding, which is enough time to recover. So it's highly possible that they might have warriors comparable to our high Dukes. If that's the case, we would not survive without the High Dukes coming here personally."

The Dukes seemed pretty pessimistic and weren't sure if they were going to get help. It has honestly taken longer than it should have. Theoretically, the reinforcements should have been here before yesterday, but they were not here even now. 

"Don't worry. I know the new Prince. He is the kind of person that dared to barge inside the Death Domain and face their Death Envoys and their Prince, stealing our war criminal from right under their eyes within their Royal Palace. Do you really think that kind of person can get cold feet? Don't worry and have faith," Devilia chimed in.

She knew Ryder the best and understood all the things he had achieved. Moreover, she understood his temperament. 

"I hope so…" the Dukes said. 

"I see our army. It looks like the enemy still hadn't managed to barge inside. We aren't too late," Rale told Ryder as he noticed the barrier still intact. 

"That's good," Ryder agreed. 

"Did you hear about the new event of Necrosis?"

"The billion-dollar event that's for the top ten? Yeah, I heard about that. It's everywhere. Amazingly, a company is willing to spend that much."

"Not that! About a different event!"

Two youngsters were sitting inside a cafe, talking to each other over coffee.

"What event? I am not much info this VR and Divinity sh*t. I'm happy playing my Nario and other old games the normal way. The only reason I heard about the billion-dollar event was because someone told me before. What new event are you talking about?"

"Apparently, two lucky players in Divinity had received a special quest. Each of them became a leader of a special Empire, and both the Empires are at war. Each of those players needs to make sure that their Empire wins, and this whole thing will be broadcasted on the official site of Divinity from today."

"Hmm? What's special about two players fighting? Isn't that the same as the billion-dollar event, just that the number of players is small and the mode of battle is a large-scale war here? Anyway, what's the prize? For this to make news, the prize should be half a billion dollars at least?

"Not at all! Apart from that, the prizes are kept a secret. Moreover, the loser of this war will be banned from Divinity forever! But that's not why this news is so special. It's because people can finally start watching and streaming their events after this event! I'm so excited to see the battle between two players, leading the armies of NPCs."

"Who are the players?"

"I have no idea yet. Basically, no one knows. But we should know when the stream starts. Want to watch it with me?"

"Sure. I'll see what Divinity is all about since you insist so much."

The same discussion was taking place all over the country. Many Divinity enthusiasts had already opened the Divinity website as they waited for the stream to start finally. 

Not only them, even Shu hadn't gone inside Divinity tonight as he stayed out to watch the stream. He even wished to watch with Ryder and Alice, but apparently, none of them were available.

He could only do so alone now. 

In the office of Necrosis, people seemed very busy. 

"How long before we can start the broadcast?" the Director of Necrosis asked a woman. 

"An hour at most," the woman answered. 

"Good."

In a different part of Divinity, a man was walking in what seemed like a desert. The man had a mask covering his face. 

If Ryder had seen the man, he would have recognized him as Lucifer. 

Moreover, that man wasn't too far away from where Ryder was at the moment. He was actually inside the Demon Realm.

Ryder was trying to find the whereabouts of the man, not knowing that he was right below his nose. 

In fact, the army of Demon Realm even flew above the head of Lucifer at a point in time, but they were in haste to reach the border and hadn't focused their heads down. 

If Ryder had looked down, he would have found the person he was looking for while simultaneously getting a potential fragment of Divinity which he believed to be in the hand of Lucifer. 

"Here they come," Devilia exclaimed as she smiled at the sight of reinforcements. They were at the right time, actually, which was amazing. 

The other Dukes also became happy as they saw Ryder and the massive army. Their worries proved to be unfounded as he was here on time. 

"Your Highness,"

Everyone greeted Ryder as the large army landed on the ground. Ryder was in the lead, followed by others. 

"What's the situation?" Ryder asked. 

"Oracle… Their army is here! Apparently, we are late. If only we could break the barrier in time, we might have managed to cause more destruction before their arrival."

One of the Spirit Warriors was informing Alice, who was sitting in a tent at the end of the Spirit Realm army. 

"Is the army big? Can you take care of it?" Alice asked, wondering if she could even hope to finish this quest. 

She was actually depending on the army to do anything to finish the quest since she actually didn't know what to do. She didn't even realize how she ended up here at all. All she knew was that this was a quest she needed to finish if she didn't want to be banned and play with Ryder in Divinity later.
