Divinity: Against the Godly System

"Did you guys bring out all the players to take my treasures? If I may ask, how do you plan to distribute them between the hundreds of you?" Ryder inquired as he smiled lightly.

"You don't have to worry about that. We will decide when the time comes. First, you need to die!" One of the Players said. That player was a level fifteen mage.

"Shhh, noobs should keep their mouth close and not disturb the big players. Come talk to me after you hit half my level, at least," Ryder replied in a mocking tone.

"You bastard! Don't think that we don't know the reason for your high level. All you did was get some high ranking quest which anyone could do. That's why you gained all that level!" Another player chimed in as he pointed his fingers at Ryder.

" Well, whatever suits you. I'm in a hurry, so I'll be fast. Please help spread my name around after you guys wake up in the real world," Ryder chuckled as he used the Transformation and changed his Scythe to a Sword since a sword was a better weapon to use Enraged Slash than a Scythe.

"A transforming weapon? That Moon Scythe is said to be a unique treasure, but for it to have this ability, I'm amazed," One of the players said as he used his finger to adjust his spectacles properly.

"Mages! He's using a sword! He must be a warrior! We need to keep him as far away from us as possible! Form a shield around as and start firing the magic! Hunters: Use your arrows to attack that guy! Warriors: Stand before the mages and protect them in case the barrier broke! Priests: Start applying buffs to the Mages!" that player said.

Ryder recognized that player who was wearing the spectacles. His username was MasterPlanner. He was a Thief and the leader of a small group of people. Even though he was good at the battle, he really shined when it came to his leading abilities. MasterPlanner was the Guildmaster of the 5th Rank Guild called the "Troopers of Victory". His strategy helped his guild many times in the previous timeline.

MasterPlanner was said to be a great player that was always a part of the Dream Team Rankings.

Dream Team Ranking was not an official Ranking in the game that focused on the levels of a player.

It was a ranking that was determined by the player and other sell reputed establishments that ranked Players based on their usefulness in a battle and their utility. MasterPlanner was in the top twenty of Dream Team.

Ryder smiled as he glanced at MasterPlanner.

He was wearing the robe that was gifted to him by the High Dukes, so he didn't have to worry about attacks from low-level players like them.

"Transform!" Ryder muttered as he changed the plan.

He transformed his Sword into a bow.

"Might as well kill the leader of the annoying bugs first," Ryder let out as he smiled while looking at MasterPlanner.

He raised his bow and aimed it towards MasterPlanner. Ryder pulled the string of the bow.

"He's pointing an empty Bow without any arrows? Has he lost his mind?" One of the Players said as he started laughing.

Ryder released the string of the bow.

A bright arrow that seemed to be made from the blue light of energy left the sword and flew towards MasterPlanner.

"... Guard the eternal shine of the lord!"

The mages also finished casting a large scale defensive spell at that time, which shrouded everyone inside what seemed like a big bubble.

The arrow hit the barrier. The barrier shattered like a glass as the arrow passed through and hit MasterPlanner.

MasterPlanner's HP instantly dropped to zero because of the level difference and the huge attack power of Ryder.

MasterPlanner watched Ryder as he disappeared.

"Alright. Time for slaughter and chaos," Ryder let out as he grinned.

He started running away towards the thousands of players.

The barrier was already broken, so most of the mages were trying to cast another barrier. The rest of the mages were attacking Ryder. Arrows were also flying towards Ryder, which was getting blocked by the barrier spell that Ryder had received inside the dungeon after killing the monsters.

"Let me show you something too," Ryder let out as he changed the Moon Bow to Moon Sword as he kept running.

In the middle of the running, he slid ahead as he rotated his body by a complete 360 while holding his sword with both his hands.

"Enraged Slash!" Ryder thundered as he swung his sword. A powerful arc of light left his sword, which advanced towards the players ahead as it kept getting bigger.

The bright arc of light hit over fifty players, instantly dropping their HP to zero as they all died.

Many notifications flashed on the side that notified Ryder.

Amongst the players that had died, most of them were Warriors and Mages that were standing in the lead. A few hunters had died as well in the attack, but most of the hunters were still alive. The Priests were mostly safe too. The Thieves had also survived the attack with the help of their speed.

"We need to land an attack on him, at least! If everyone stands before him, then we'll all die! Surround him!" One of the thieves said as he moved towards Ryder's back. The other thieves also followed suit as they surrounded Ryder and got themselves ready to attack.

All of them attacked Ryder from different directions.

"It was your foolishness to think that I won't have a ranged attack," Ryder muttered as he shook his head.

He raised his hand towards the sky.

"Sandstorm!" Ryder cast another one of his powerful spells. It was the same spell that he had used inside the Dungeon to take care of multiple monsters with ease.

A sandstorm erupted in the field with Ryder at its center. It kept getting bigger as it shrouded everyone.

"H-how! How can he use a spell? Isn't he a warrior?!" One of the players screamed in disbelief as he was getting attacked by the sandstorm, which kept decreasing his HP like a rock dropping in the ocean.

Soon, the HP of players hit zero, and they died.

The sandstorm disappeared, leaving an empty field with no players in sight.

[Level up]

Again, a barrage of notifications arrived. He had also gained a level after all these fights. Even though the players he fought were low-level players that weren't even level 30+, he still gained a level just from the sheer number of the players he fought.

Ryder looked at the ground and noticed many items that were dropped by the players that he had killed, but all of these were random things that were useless for a high-level person like him. His inventory didn't have enough storage to keep all of these items, either. He left the items behind for whoever could find it and started walking away.

After some more time, Ryder reached the place where he had told Rale to bring the Princess of Tiara Kingdom.

He sat under the shade of the tree and started waiting for Rale to come with the Princess.

Half an hour after Ryder left the hotel Room, Rale left the room as well. He covered his face with a mask and changed his clothes to more darker ones as he flew through the city like lightning.

His speed was so fast that no one was able to see him pass through them.

Rale entered the Royal Palace without any trouble. No one noticed him.

He found out that the Princess was in the Throne Room with the King and Ryuk.

He knew that he could enter the throne room and kidnap her before the eyes of the long, but he didn't do it. Ryder had told him that he didn't need to use strength. It was going to be troublesome if he used his strength to fight the king and used a fraction of that strength to fight Ryder. The Princess would easily know that Rale wasn't using his full strength against Ryder if he beat the king here. He was to act like a kidnapper that wanted to kidnap the princess without getting caught by the King.

After some more time, the Princess came out of the throne room with Ryuk and closed the door behind her.

'Time to take her,' Rale though as he looked at the Princess. He moved towards her.
