Chapter 87: Chapter 87- Returning the Favour
“T-that was indeed Lady Drishti herself,” Dreck informed about the identity of the woman who arrived at the end of the battle.
‘Drishti,’ naturally, after getting defeated last night, Ryuk had not thought much.
He planned to leave Ardoros like any other Flagbearer and train to settle his scores after he became strong.
Instead of maintaining his pride, acting with patience seemed more important.
But it seems there are some changes in his predestined plans.
Not because he understood the identity of that person or he was confident to defeat her now after taking some rest.
After all, with that battle, Ryuk knew the difference in their strength was enormous, maybe comparable to a predator and prey.
The only thing that caused all his changes in plan was the reason behind last night’s event — he was not a puppet for someone’s interest.
“Dreck, why didn’t the Head or any other members intervene yesterday?” While contemplating a way to deal with Drishti, a doubt arose in his mind.
If Drishti found him interesting, then wouldn’t it be true for others too?
Maybe they are not that intense when it comes to following something interesting. But even after a whole battle occurred, and yet no response from the Head family, it only signifies two things: they either wanted him to die or wanted to see his true strength too.
Though these are just speculations, since unexpected reasons could also occur, like how until now, he thought of that army there to just kill everyone related to his mother, but it turned out to be someone who just wanted to fulfill her curiosity.
“It seems confusing for me too, Young Master,” Dreck, stopping at the balcony, turned towards Ryuk, while narrowing his gaze. Only one thing came to mind at that time, which he revealed, “There could be chances that Lady Deventhia and the Head of the Family were not in Ardoros?”
Ryuk remained silent, as Dreck knew about those individuals’ personalities and habits more than him. Ryuk accepted the fact, but the question remained: what is his value?
Will they be going to punish, discuss, or do anything about this whole incident if they were really not aware of these things?
Absolutely not.
‘It will be a gamble,’ a thought crossed his mind regarding something, but there was too much risk of failure, and this could lead to his life’s last failure.
Right now, his both worlds’ perspectives were in a battle.
The previous world’s mind was suggesting to patiently see through things, without acting rashly, while controlling his pride since it would be foolish to go against someone with winning chances of less than 5%.
Present world’s mind wanted to not digest the fact that he was played like a mere puppet at the hands of someone and even looked down upon. An ego of Emperor Ryuk was somehow trying to dominate his pride.
Who should he choose?
‘Let’s go with this then.’ Seeing both personalities overlapping, he finally reached a common agreement which was him achieving the desire of his present self while following the approach of the previous world.
“Dreck, can you tell me about the Rakshasa Technique?” Ryuk inquired about the ability used by Lucas to inhabit an artificial body, which was able to manifest the real owner’s energy.
Of course, his interest was not particularly in learning that technique.
“Oh, do you mean the one used by Lucas?” Dreck’s eyes slightly widened, but noticing Ryuk’s back which once again resurfaced memories of the previous night where the same man saved all of them from the Battleship’s cannon.
“Young Master, that ability is forbidden and could even corrupt one’s mind,” Dreck warned, somewhat trying to unconsciously return the favor he received from the young man.
“Just tell me, do you know or not?” Slowly standing from his seat since he was not in the mood to delay after seeing a way for him to somehow get back at that woman.
“No,” Dreck shook his head before remembering something and added, “But you may find something inside the Central Library.”
“A library?” Hearing the name of the nostalgic place which seemed to be most foreign to him in this present life, his eyes softened while thinking about how he finally needed to start reading some books once again.

Suddenly, a knock on the door attracted both of their attention, but before Ryuk could command the person to enter.
SWISH
“My daughter!” Dreck swiftly arrived at the door, swiftly opening it, revealing a young woman with a height of 5 feet 3 inches, standing with her glimmering eyes searching for someone instead of fixing on the man in front waiting with an anticipated gaze.
“Young Master!” Ignoring Dreck standing, Mia directly passed beside him, while he stood there blankly looking straight, still trying to process everything.
Instant Karma.
“Did you make the list?” Ryuk, seeing the excited demeanor of Mia, at least guessed about the things going in the right direction but still inquired.
“Um.” Fidgeting with her fingers, instead of handing over the list, she slightly leaned while offering her head.
‘…’ Understanding the meaning behind her such gesture, Ryuk stretched his hand and patted her before asking again, “Now, can you tell me what are the things needed to make it?”
“…I can’t understand it,” saying those words, she kept shaking her head to feel his palm. While Ryuk heard those words, even though he felt disappointed, it was not that he had any expectations to begin with.
A simple thing to keep you away from disheartening: live without expecting anything in particular. If things go well, you’ll be really happy, and if not, you won’t be disappointed because you didn’t expect anything in first place.
“It’s fine. You did well,” not wanting to make Mia feel bad, he kept his hand there for a while. Three minutes later, removing it with both of her hands, Mia stated, “But I can repair that body!”
‘!’
“You can?” Ryuk inquired, and in response, seeing Mia’s swift nod, turned his gaze towards the upcoming presence he felt at the balcony of the room.
“Dreck, bring Mia out with you,” slowly moving towards the balcony, while Dreck swiftly understood the meaning of those words and without delay took Mia out of the room.
“Wait, Young Master!” Mia, getting grabbed by her father once again, tried to retaliate, but her eyes could only reflect Ryuk’s cold yet sharp gaze fixed towards the balcony, instead of towards her, while the door of the room finally closed.
‘Should we start?’ Looking at the mana disturbance, evidence for the arrival of some people, Ryuk finally thought to take the first step towards a subquest— RETURNING THE FAVOUR WITH 200% INTEREST.
SWISH SWISH
Two figures, one after another, materialized in that place, their bodies shrouded in blue mana, instantly filling the surroundings with dense presence, increasing with each moment.
“Ryuk Devereaux, you should be honored that you are allowed to choose anything from Lady Drishti’s Collection of Treasures.”
One of the cloaked figures announced, with a heat haze forming surrounding his body, gazing towards the young man in front of him, while hiding his intent to shred him for harming his Master.
Looking towards the two peak Legendary Perfect Rankers, Ryuk felt the time to initiate a chain reaction while already decided which item he wants from that treasure collection.
SWOOSH
An Ethereal sword started to materialize from his grip, slowly becoming visible to both men who just narrowed their gaze while intensely looking at Ryuk.
SWISH
One of the man’s pupils reflected Ryuk’s figure blurring before suddenly arriving with a sword pointed towards his pupil, while a voice resonated within the room.
“I choose Drishti herself.”
