Miku saw the face of Miyali, who was covered in blood as if she had just finished feeding on the blood.

"So you're a Vampire. Did his Highness know? Or were you hiding this from him as well? Whatever being the case, I can't let you roam around freely," Miku muttered as she looked at the bodies on the ground. "You have already killed enough."

Miyali's face looked as emotionless as ever. She simply looked at Miku as if she was looking at a prey who was nothing but a blood bag for her.

There was a moment of silence, which seemed like it lasted for an eternity; however, it was not even a second.

The two women disappeared from their position at the same time. 

There were ten meters of distance between the two previously, which was reduced to only a meter within a second.

Miyali threw her hand towards the neck of Miku to grab her by the neck, whereas Miku threw a punch towards the chest of Miyali.

Both of their hands moved just as fast; however, Miku's hand seemed to be a few seconds faster as her fist landed on Miku's cheat when the hands of Miyali were only a few inches away from her neck.

The punch that encompassed all the strength of Miku landed on the chest of Miyali, crushing her chest.

Miyali flew back like a broken doll, crashing on the wall in the back.

The wall broke as the force of the impact was so powerful.

Miyali crashed in a different room as she coughed out a mouthful of blood.

The bones of her chest were broken, and she wasn't able to sit up.

Her bones started healing because of her vampire abilities, but their speed of healing was slow.

She couldn't heal in enough time as Miku was already standing near her.

Her healing was still going to take a few more minutes, but she didn't have much time since her life was already in jeopardy.

Miku raised her feet and stomped on Miyali's chest again.

"Your healing is slow. Too bad for you that I know all about your kind. In the time you heal, I can break you ten times more," Miku let out as she smiled.

She kept stomping on Miyali, who wasn't able to resist.

"How does it feel to beat weaker people? Did you enjoy killing innocent maids? Unfortunately, I can't be as cruel as you. Still, I can at least keep you in prison. His Highness can decide on your punishment later," she continued, but she didn't stop stomping.

"Miku, what's happening here?" 

Just as Miku was busy stomping on Miyali, a voice fell on her ears.

"Y-your Highness?" Miku exclaimed as she turned back. 

"Oh, you caught her," Ryder muttered as she saw Miyali lying on the ground, unconscious.

"She is already unconscious. You can stop beating her," he let out as he smiled wryly.

"Rale, take Miyali and keep her imprisoned until she recovers. I'll interrogate her later about how it happened later," Ryder told Rale as he sighed.

Rale nodded his head as he stepped forward. 

"Move aside, Miku," he told Miku, who had her feet on Miyali's chest.

"Ah, right," Miku muttered as she moved back.

"Your Highness, I was called by Miss Feline. To not get you caught, I went to her palace to help, saying you had given me permission. When I came back, I saw this. I hope you forgive me for taking action," Miku explained to Ryder, hoping that he doesn't misunderstand.

"It's fine. I understand what happened. We will discuss this later," Ryder muttered as he sighed.

"Take care of the bodies. I want the entire palace cleaned, and no information should leak out. I will interrogate her first to know what happened before we decide what course to take," Ryder told Miku. "You understand, right?"

"Yes. It shall be done. I'll take a short trip to see how many people are alive while I take care of the bodies," Miku replied. She understood how it was important to handle this matter carefully, so it doesn't get out of hand.

If things were handled inappropriately, the High Dukes might have been angered. She decided to help Ryder as she believed that he wasn't a traitor.

Ryder stepped out of the room.

Rale was carrying Miyali, whose hands were tied. 

They walked to the Throne Room.

Rale placed Miyali before Ryder.

"Rale, what do you think we should do. Should we keep her imprisoned in a cell, or is it faster if we stay before her eyes?" Ryder asked Rale.

"We should lock her up. The time in both cases would be the same, but we can keep her out of eyes if we keep her in a cell. If someone comes, we can't be carrying her," Rale explained to Ryder. 

"That's true. Fine. Take her in the cell. You are responsible for checking up on her every day," Ryder let out as he nodded his head.

"I'll be going now. I'll talk to you in the morning. I'm sure you can handle the rest. The palace should be cleaned at night. I'm trusting you," he told Rale as he opened the logout screen.

Ryder tapped on the log-out option, which brought him out of the world of Divinity.

Ryder appeared in the real world, where he was lying on his bed.

He tried to move his hand but realized that someone was on his left hand, stopping it from moving.

Using his left hand, he took off the Divinity Glasses and looked to the side.

"Alice?" Ryder muttered softly as he saw the peaceful sleeping face of Alice, which was resting in her hand.

Her hand was lying on his chest.

"When did she come here?" he muttered in confusion.

He placed the glass in his inventory.

Picking up the phone, he checked the time. 

'It's only five, but I need to hurry since it's important today," he muttered as he looked at the time.

He used his right hand to raise Alice's head before he pulled out his left hand.

He gently placed down her head before he got off the bed. 

He hurriedly brought some less noticeable clothes out of his bags that were black and walked into the shower room.

While Ryder was showering, Alice woke up.

She still seemed sleepy as she had just woken up. Her eyes weren't even fully opening as she was so sleepy.

She walked to the bathroom, which was attached to the shower room, unaware that she wasn't in her room.

At night, she saw a rat in her room. She ran out in fear and closed the door. Unable to step into her room in fear, Alice could only go into Ryder's room.

As she entered his room, she saw him lying on the bed, wearing Divinity Glasses. She laid beside him and soon fell asleep. 

As she woke up in the morning, she forgot that she wasn't in her room, but Ryder's as she stepped inside the bathroom.

"Hmm? Is someone here?" She muttered in confusion, still sleepy as she slid the glass door to the side.

She could see the back of a man who had his eyes closed. Ryder had shampoo in her head, which was sliding down her face.

He couldn't see as his eyes were closed, but Alice's eyes opened wide as she saw Ryder.

A scream was about to escape her lips, but she covered her mouth to make sure that no voice came out of her mouth.

Ryder's back was facing her, so she couldn't see anything more. She decided to slowly walk back and get out of this place; however, that's Whalen Ryder turned back as he started rubbing the back of his head.

As he turned back, that proved to be the final straw as there were no covers between the two.

Alice could see Ryder's naked body before her eyes. Water was dripping down his body, highlighting his chiseled body and well-toned muscles. Alice stopped moving back as her eyes started moving down from her chest.

Her face was as red as a Tomato as her heartbeat at the speed that she rarely experienced. The more her gaze went down, the more her heartbeat increased until her gaze was right above his waist. Just a bit more, and she was going to see his thing that she wasn't supposed to.

Her mind was telling her not to do it and to go back, but her heart was beating fast, and there was some inexplicable feeling inside her heart that was making her think that she needed to do it.

Ultimately, she couldn't take it anymore as she finally lowered her gaze and saw every bit of Ryder.

She could see the thing between his legs that seemed long but not too long. She wondered if that's how it was supposed to be as it was kind of her first time properly seeing it.

She didn't know that it was because he wasn't hard and he was showering.
