After a few more seconds had passed, Ryder saw the person that was running towards him.
"Young Master!" Bulga called out as he noticed Ryder standing near the lake with his Scythe.
"I heard the sound of fighting when I was coming here. What exactly happened? Was there an intruder or a really strong beast?" Bulga let out in concern, but soon his eyes fell on the lower body of Ryder.
Ryder noticed where he was looking as he remembered that he wasn't actually wearing anything.
"Turn back!" He ordered Bulga.
"Ah, Y-young Master, I'm not that kind of a demon. I have a wife at home; please don't do that to me," Bulga stepped back in fear as he misunderstood Ryder's intention.
Ryder realized the misunderstanding as he saw Bulga's expressions. His expressions turned weird.
"What the fuck are you thinking right now! Turn back so that I could get dressed. Stop looking at me like that!" Ryder let out loudly.
"Ah, Right," Bulga nodded his head and turned back in a hurry.
'What the heck does he think of me? Do I look like I would be interested in… Yuck,' Ryder thought.
Ryder brought the clothes out of his storage space and got dressed.
"You can turn back now," He told Bulga after getting dressed.
"A girl attacked me just now. Tell me, how was someone able to enter this forest with you standing outside? Is there another person that visits this place?" Ryder inquired.
"A girl? I don't know, Young Master. No one would be able to enter the forest as it is Master's property. Even the other Dukes never tried to come here," Bulga said as he fell in deep thought.
"Master should be here soon enough. Maybe she would know?" Bulga let out softly.
"You called her here?" Ryder exclaimed in shock.
"Yes. I sent her a message as soon as I got your message," Bulga said innocently.
"You Idi…" Ryder was just talking when a person came from the sky and landed in front of him. It was Duke Devilia that looked particularly concerned.
"It's good that you're not hurt. I wouldn't even know how I would be able to face the Grand Dukes at the coronation ceremony if something had happened to you. Tell me what happened?" She inquired.
"Ahh, it's nothing. It's just a girl that appeared before me. She looked as if she was looking for something. She started attacking me as soon as she saw me," Ryder told her honestly since she was already here.
"See, I told you that it wasn't a good idea to go out at times like these. She must be an assassin sent by the other Dukes. Also, why didn't you use the talisman and inform me? Instead, I received the news from him!" She told Ryder as she pointed towards Bulga.
Ryder gulped down as he saw the anger on her face. Although she was controlling it, some of her aura was leaking. Ryder could sense the incredible strength she must possess just from the fierce aura.
"I just didn't feel like there was a need to inform you. The girl was too weak to be an assassin sent by the dukes. She didn't even use any stealth," Ryder started talking.
" I had no trouble facing her, but I still called for Bulga just to have a backup in case I was wrong. And I was right; she indeed was not that strong. She ran away right before Bulga came," He finished explaining.
"In which direction did she run off to?" Devilia asked.
"She used a talisman-like thing to open a space portal and entered it," He replied.
"A Spatial Talisman? Not many people in our Empire have the resources to possess it. Can you tell me more about her? What she looked like? The skills she used?" She further asked.
"It was a girl that looked like she was only in her early 20s. She had Dark Blue Hair and light grey eyes. She had an oval face, fair skin, and looked like she was 5 ft. 9 inches in height. I'm not an expert in this stuff, but I can only make a guess that she was a 35-26-33," Ryder let out as he imagined the girl.
"35-26-33?" Devilia asked in confusion.
"Oh, You guys don't have a figure measurement system? Alright, I'll make it easier. Her Chest was smaller than yours, her waist was about the same as yours, and her hips were also a few sizes smaller than yours," Ryder explained like an expert.
He looked like a great master that was selflessly sharing his knowledge.
For a brief moment, Devilia just looked at him with a blank look on her face. She didn't know how to react.
"I meant only her face and her dress, not her chest and hips," She finally opened her mouth and let out.
"Her dress? She was wearing a black gown if I'm not wrong. It looked like there was a design on the gown that looked like spider webs, but in golden color,"
"As for her skills, she used quite a few. She made a skeleton appear out of nowhere that took my fire blast without being destroyed. She was also able to use a thunder ball like skill. Oh, there was one more. She pointed towards the sky, and the sky was covered in dark clouds, and a thunderbolt fell from the sky as if it was targeting me," Ryder described the skills.
Devilia fell in thought. No matter how much she thought about it, she could only think of a single person.
"Those Skills? I haven't heard of anyone possessing skills like that here. Also, making a skeleton appear? Only people from Death Domain can do that. They can use the creatures of death to fight for them, after all. Also, I did hear a rumor. There is a girl in the Death Domain that is born with the Lightning Soul Body. She should be just as old as you described. But what was she doing here?" She let out.
"Oh right, She also had a spear that made the Moon Scythe react fiercely as soon as it appeared. It had a few patterns on it. Let me draw them for you," Ryder said as he remembered the most intriguing thing about their fight, the spear.
He began drawing the ancient-looking characters on the ground that he noticed in the Spear.
Devilia saw the characters, and her expressions kept changing. None of her expressions looked good, though.
