Legendary God of Harem In the Modern World

Chapter 9: Riddles

To be honest, she was helpless. She knew that her opponent was a war god well known in the underground world. This man single-handedly annihilated a thousand assassins and made his two opponents run away in fear. The woman thought that Nergal's presence in Crimea would invite other prominent figures in the underground world to act in her country. If this continued, the country's survival would be at stake.

"So you mean I don't know the laws of my own country? Of course I know, I was born here you know!" Ryan refuted the woman in front of him.

Hearing this made the woman run out of words. The god of war Nergal turned out to be a native of Crimea? This information was absolutely crucial and if it spread it would create a wave of its own.

"By the way, you are from the Ordo of Alkonost, right? One of your ranks is named Christa. I want to meet her. Please arrange for me."

Ryan did not care about the shock that woman had. He only wanted to see Christa as soon as possible. Without X's potion, he had to find another solution to overcome the mysterious power in his body. Only Christa could help him for now.

After a few moments of silence, the woman replied, "Fine, I'll pass on your message. I can't guarantee that she will be willing to see you or not."

Even though her secret identity as a member of Alkonost Ordo was revealed so easily, this woman's voice still sounded calm.

"For me that is enough. Say my name and she will be willing to meet me. Elizabeth, how come you have such a beautiful body with such a small chest? Pay more attention to your body and take care of yourself." Ryan immediately disappeared with a big smile on his face.

Elizabeth was completely in a daze. How could Ryan find out her name and the name of her organization in just a few minutes? Did he also know that she was on the list of gods? However, hearing Ryan's last sentence made Elizabeth hate herself,

"Damn, how dare he say my chest is small!"

Ryan immediately returned to Irina's house at lightning speed. When he entered the house, he didn't forget to check on Irina's condition. Fortunately, the woman was fast asleep. The previous inner exertion must have greatly helped Irina's condition. Ryan then decided to rest in his own room.

When Ryan was about to sleep on the bed, he felt something behind his back that gave him goosebumps.

After wandering for years and living in danger, Ryan had a sharper sense. Even the slightest killing intent would not escape him. This would make him one step ahead of the dangers that always lurked. But this time, the look from behind his back gave him the chills. There were dangers lurking in this house! The figure behind this great danger must be a strong person.

Ryan then approached the door slowly. He relied on his soundless approach to catch enemies off guard. He had to be one step ahead because his body was completely exhausted.

"Oh my, Susan! It's just shocking, why are you here?"

After knowing that the maid Susan was behind the door, Ryan's fist loosened up and calmed down again.

Since the moment her whereabouts were discovered, Susan had a small smile on her face. This smile looked innocent and friendly, making people feel relaxed around her. However, Ryan couldn't help but forget that the dangerous aura from before was leaking from the same person before him. Susan was not just a maid.

"I see young master Ryan was out at night. I'm worried about you, so I came to see. Are you okay?"

From the tone of her voice, Susan said it with great concern. Was her worry really genuine?

Ryan then realized that he had married the most influential person in this city. Surely his wife had hidden powers and of course, this maid might be one of them.

"Ohh .. Sorry. Maybe I was too loud when opening the door, huh? I just want to breathe the night air anyway. I'm okay too, see for yourself."

When viewed from the outside, Ryan's appearance looked ordinary. But if a swordsman saw him, he would know that Ryan's body was in complete chaos. His internal power had been flowing irregularly and his body was completely damaged.

But Susan didn't seem like she would mention this, so she simply replied, "Then thank goodness. Sorry for disturbing your night's rest."

As soon as Ms. Susan said goodbye, Ryan immediately ran to the bathroom and vomited a mouthful of blood.

.........

Susan stayed on the 1st floor while Ryan and Irina were on the 2nd floor. After entering her room, the old maid immediately took her cellphone and made a call.

"Good evening sir. Today, the young lady brought a man home. They say that they are married and even have their marriage certificate." Susan turned out to be calling Irina's father.

"What? How could that child do that!" The father sounded disgruntled.

"Please sir, don't act immediately. I myself will investigate this matter without your knowledge. After I analyze their situation, this marriage is not in accordance with our expectations. Miss Irina also said that this marriage is only temporary."

"This is not good Susan. You've worked for me for 40 years and you already know that Irina is engaged to the son of Kruger's family. Even though we don't bring up engagement issues often, what do you think would happen if the Kruger's family heard about this? They will drag the Avalerion company and my family to the bottom of the abyss!"

"I know sir. But hasn't the child from Kruger's family disappeared since he was little? How could that child suddenly reappear just like that? After all, don't you think that your daughter has her own feelings?"

Susan sounded rude towards her master. She assumed that her young lady had the right to choose her own partner.

"Enough! I don't want to hear your opinion. Anyway, Irina can't marry that bastard. Since Irina was a child, she has been decided to marry into Kruger's family. Susan, I trust that you will make sure this thing will work out properly. Do whatever you need to get that bastard out of my daughter's life!" After saying that, the father immediately hung up.

When she heard this, Susan's face looked a little pale. Her master had conveyed orders. Even though she had her own opinion Susan was helpless and had no other choice.

"Ryan, you don't seem like any other person. You seem like a pretty good and strong person. If Miss is with you, maybe she will find her happiness. However. I. Ah never mind this is not a problem for an old granny like me to worry about. Didn't you say that this marriage only lasted a few months? Hopefully this news won't leak until then."

..........

Currently, Ryan was still busy dealing with the mysterious power in his body. He was sitting cross-legged on his bed and meditating. He had vomited a mouthful of fresh blood in the bathroom. This actually helped him remove the dirty blood from his body.

Three hours had passed and Ryan still felt weak.

It had been a long time since he had fought in a rough battle and was injured in such a way. More than ten people attacked him simultaneously during which time they were taking boosters. In the end, Ryan was still a human even though he was known as one of the 12 Aesirs.

In the midst of his meditation, he did not hold back his thoughts from thinking about today's events. Starting from Irina who was poisoned until his encounter with Igor and two people from his organization.

Was Igor and the Italian mafia behind this all? No, Ryan really understood their strengths. Even if they actually used their aces to kill him, there was no way they could destroy his heavily guarded base.

Even though Igor managed to persuade the Eclipse and the Tiger, there was something on Ryan's heart. Why did the two of them suddenly betray him? Especially the Tiger whom he considered his own brother. He also left Yasmin and made her injured.

Perhaps, the less surprising figure from the recent attack was the Eclipse. Indeed, he was a person who was hungry for power and cunning. However, his combat ability was nothing compared to Ryan. Maybe Igor saw the darkness and discontent in the Eclipse's heart and managed to persuade him to join.

But there was one most important question he still couldn't answer. How could they attack their headquarters and track him in Crimea? Even Ryan began to doubt that the real opponent he was facing wasn't Eclipse and Tiger.

Its overseas headquarters were located in the remote mountains of Japan. Yasmin said that his base was attacked around 3 pm. If calculated, the night attack in Crimea was only 8 hours apart from the time they succeeded in destroying their headquarters.

Did Yasmin lie to him?
