Chapter 50: Chapter 50- Meeting Inky once again
Ding!!
A sudden sound caused Ryuk to halt in his way, turning his attention towards the newly materialized screen.
━━━━━━━━━━━ ⟡ ━━━━━━━━━━━
ALERT!!!
One of the Targets of Enslavement Grimoire is Missing.
Missing Target name - Wang
━━━━━━━━━━━ ⟡ ━━━━━━━━━━━
'He died too?' Observing the things taking a completely opposite approach instead of the way he wanted them to be, Ryuk felt confused and curious about this whole thing.
It was clear to him from the moment he hired Elsa as his maid and ensured she treated her niece the way he wanted—but somehow his Mother appointed Alia as his personal maid.
Edward got out of his hand when he tried to kill him—Suddenly someone arrived from the outer world, even Jenny found herself by her real family, which had never happened in the previous life.
Ryuk's curiosity was: how far could heaven go to favor its loved children?
The major reason for him to turn back time with these heroines was to teach them a lesson, but he knew that heaven would try to manipulate things even if he reversed the time.
In the end, even his System seemed to not give him information related to the World's will, clearly pointing towards the heaven's strength momentarily being stronger than everything he possessed.
This prompted him to bring the Heroines with him back to let their memories overshadow their progress; in the end, the same cycle will repeat, but this time they would have came after becoming much stronger.
By ensuring that each one of them didn't develop accordingly, causing him to make them busy with their past memories and present ones.
'System, who killed that guy?' His curiosity was evident since Wang's age was too much for a normal expert to kill him, since Ryuk never believed that one's level was the sole reason that ensures their victory; experience plays the biggest role.
[ Host, Wang's death is due to excessive Energy exhaustion, there seems to be rapid draining of his Energy due to engaging in battle with Someone, causing him to lose remaining Vitality ]
'Where is Mother', Ryuk inquired since he didn't feel her presence nearby.
[ Host, She is inside a different space with a separate time Zone ]
'Wait?' Ryuk halted the system, before processing all the sudden information, he continued 'What different Space, How different time is there, and could she come safe out of it'
[Space is the result of a special trait originating from the Outside world ]
'I see' Ryuk grasped the intervention of the outside world, which seemed visible in Wang's case too, thinking something he commanded system 'Purchase Energy Stabiliser'
SWOOSH
Suddenly, the mana particles surrounding his body started to move in front of him before halting in midair, the bright blue light feeling a jar of human shape seemed visible.
Slowly a body started to materialize looking exactly like Ryuk, but there was not any aura surrounding it, seemingly completely normal.
'Use Energy Stabilizer on this thing', Ryuk ordered while his gaze reflected a figure looking like him yet seemed without any strength, like a doll without life.
It was one of his abilities that he had developed by using his previous world knowledge and resources of the present world.
Mana is an energy that seems mysterious from the outside perspective but Ryuk sees it otherwise, for him, Mana is like Electricity, which is easily convertible into any other forms which are Pyro(fire), Aqua(water), Terra(Soil), Aero(Air) and finally, Aethera(Spirit).
Just like how white light gives off seven colors and on mixing each colour, one could get 5040 different shades, Magic is just like that, with a suitable combination of those elements, one can achieve enormous results.
Seemingly complicated yet very basic principle behind everything, just as how the human body is made of these five elements, the creation of anything refer as Magic is based on the same principle.
So, the only mysterious thing is the way these elements are combined to get the desired result, and this is where Ryuk's knowledge of the previous world came into play.
His early days were all passed while engrossed in understanding the methods of better utilization of Mana, from which, he developed many techniques which were a combination of knowledge from his previous world and this world.
Using the Duality principle of light, he manifested the same image of himself, to make its energy signature the same as his, he calibrated the wavelength and frequency with his own.
But, it was still not enough since, he couldn't create a thing that can keep providing this whole structure energy and even though he could use the energy cores of monsters, he couldn't keep the thing stable—his presence around it was mandatory.
It was why, seeing the Energy Stabilizer caused him to get hope that, it could be advantageous for him to utilize it for this particular task.
[ ↺1% ↺35% ↺99% —⟩ ▒▒▒▒ 100% --» Successfully applied ]
Ryuk looked at the statue figure of his, completely giving off the same kind of energy, and even with his senses, it was a 98% perfect split image of his, those 2% were taken out due to a small variable.
Ignoring the thing, he turned towards the window balcony attached to his room, slowly moving towards it.
SWOOSH
Slowly Amber's aura, started to shroud his body starting from the legs moving upward, reaching his waist, but in the middle, its color shifted towards amethyst—upper body shrouded in amethyst while lower one in Amber.
His gaze turned towards his destination, unlike previous times, now he was alone enough.
CRACKLE
SWISH
Within a frame of milliseconds, his body dissapeared into thin air, the hazy air inside the room evident of instant motion, a speed far greater than ever seen but...
[ ALERT!!!!! Body Reconstruction is Needed ]
The moment that sound reached his ears Ryuk halted in his path since, his body was getting exhausted much earlier than he expected, the moment he stopped, he had already reached the harbour filled with ships.
Moving towards the same direction where previously he got a transport for North, but of course he doesn't have any expectations this time to see it, since, he had arrived much sooner than previously.
"Come, Come, Let's Go to the North and see the heaven yourself" A man advertised standing outside a ragged ship, the same as Ryuk remembered, a smile forming on his face slowly approached it.
"Have this and take me to your heaven" Ryuk threw a gold coin, which was caught by the man with a smile, feeling genuinely happy seeing the coin before turning towards Ryuk, observing intensely for some time.
".....yes, Let's go" The sailor moved inside the ship bringing Ryuk with him, coincidentally, this time too, A Middle-aged man and an Old man were present on board.
"Come kid, sit here with this Uncle", a middle-aged man seeing a Child entering the ship called out, his eyes fixed on the clothes Ryuk wore and an obvious trait, those Amber eyes.
In whole Selvius Kingdom, amber eyes were possessed by only two people and right now, everyone onboard had noticed that the Kid was Crown prince, Ryuk Von Selvius.
The reason for Ryuk to not even wear a cloak to hide his face is due to knowing about the involvement of the Silvester Family and their standings, which became even more extreme towards the Royal family in the past few years.
The ship slowly started to move, only four people on the board, Ryuk standing while folding his hand and supporting his body with the deck of the Ship.
"So, What brought the Crown Prince to our humble abode" A middle-aged middle-aged man looked with a grin towards Ryuk, who seemed carefree standing with a smile, the Ship due to the mana engine was moving rapidly towards the North, already leaving shore at a distance.
"I heard your ship was getting older, So, here I am for painting" Ryuk looking at the hands of each person reaching for some weapon, turned towards the old man who seemed mysterious in his first trial to North.
" HOHO, Prince, I like your generosity "
SWISH
The old man's before him swiftly closed the distance of several meters within a blink, aiming at the boy completely off guard, standing carefree.
SCHLKT!

In Northernmost part existed a huge cave, proof of the cruelty humanity could reach at it's peak, even moonlight's gentle rays seemed to not wash away the evil in this place.
Several wooden carriages carrying diseased patients were brought by people wearing white robes, symbolizing their identity as Paladins from Goddess Fela's Monestry.
Everyone's last hope was this treatment camp created by Monastery to isolate ill people, making them recover sooner with the help of several healers.
"I-I want to live, Please save me, Your Grace" A woman filled with red marks with dim eyes begged the man sitting in front of her on a wooden carriage.
"Have faith in us, You will be fine, trust Goddess" A bright smile adorned the man's face, looking towards the woman with a gaze filled with honesty and genuine emotions.
There is a saying that human's eyes can never lie.
An Absolute lie, Unlike animals whose eyes mirror their emotions, humans are far more complicated, and right now, the man's pristine attire with a handsome face was like an Oleander— beautiful yet poisonous.
CRUMBLE
Suddenly Carriage disbalanced before it could enter the Cave completely, due to the sudden impact, causing the land to shake.
"W-what happened—?!" Man came out of his carriage to see the cause of such Interruption in their noble cause but what greeted him was a big ship, tore through snow, it seemed the ship crashed with the ground while moving at enormous speed.
"Is everyone Alright" Several mens ran out of the cave , only to observe the ship while others swiftly entered it to see what caused it to crash instead of entering inside.
White robes revealed their identity as Members of the Monastery.
Slowly reaching the ship, several men boarded it, observing the whole thing but what visited them was crimson painted walls of the ship, only destruction, while a lone figure sat at the center over a wooden box.
"W-who are you?!" Arrived men seemed to feel startled because the figure reflected in their eyes seemed very similar to someone they knew.
Swish
Small gust of wind passed caressing black fluttering hair of Ryuk while his Amber gaze seemed to be accentuated with moonlight, small blood stains visible on his face adding a devilish look.
A calm voice left Ryuk's mouth," You think, I am a Devil" With those words, he slowly stood, bloodied floors, and crimson stains all over him, adding an eerie.
"Believe me, You not seen even half of it....."
A smile formed on his lips, and tilting his head with that small smile caused the remaining struggle in these people's hearts to vanish.
.

"Kughh!.....H-have Me-rc-y" A man lifted in the air supported by a hand Clenching his neck, struggled while his limbless body drenched in blood stuck in a position where his eyes reflected two amber orbs.
CRACK
THUD
The last body fell on the cold ground, turning towards the exit of the cave, observing intensely while a small sound was audible to Ryuk.
While moving, leaving behind the path only filled with now lifeless bodies, he felt nostalgia after visiting this place, where he met his first sparring partner— Inky.
Exiting the way, his eyes ignored the whole mountain of rotten things lying in front of his eyes, not giving much attention to it.
His eyes searched for someone special.
"Kkhhwweekkk!!"
SWISH
'Here you are', Suddenly a sound came from behind accompanied by an attack that was stopped mid-way by his hands.
Gripping tightly Ryuk's gaze turned towards the mud-like black humanoid thing, oozing bubbles with a big red stone in its middle, looking at it, a cold glint passed through Ryuk's eyes.
"Inky, you seem to become even more wild which definitely doesn't suits you"
