Chapter 484 Dark Grade



Chapter 484: Dark Grade

The men entered the carriage, which started moving away.

The bulky man, on the other hand, stayed back with the independent horse, seemingly waiting for someone.

As the carriage left, the man climbed on his horse and let the hold heal.

Soon, the hole wholly closed. Since there was no need to keep the hole open, he let out closed as he waited for his friend to come. After he was here, the man could open the hole again, which was less risky than keeping it constantly opened.

The carriage soon disappeared from the sight, but the man kept sitting on the horse that was striding back and forth.

Ryder remained hidden behind a giant tree, waiting for the carriage to leave so that the man had no reinforcement.

After the carriage was left, Ryder finally stepped out of the carriage. He started walking towards the bulky man who was looking towards the barrier, wondering if the man was going to return.

As the barrier cut all the voices from inside to outside, he couldn’t just look elsewhere and hope to hear the man screaming when he was here. He had to keep looking inside the barrier, waiting for the man.

He constantly looked inside the barrier, only occasionally taking his gaze off as he looked around to check his surroundings.

As he looked around, he noticed Ryder in some distance, walking towards him.

The hole was already closed, so he didn’t have to worry about anything. He was just like a random person, riding on a horse near the Royal City. No rules were broken, so he remained calm.

He did seem a bit curious as to why another person was walking here.

The path that most common people used to enter the city was in the opposite direction. He didn’t know why someone would be walking here.

He had no idea that Ryder wasn’t from the Death Domain, so he couldn’t enter using the old path.

The barrier only stopped people that weren’t from the death domain from entering and unauthorized items from being taken out.

That was the one reason they had to make a hole in the barrier even though they could go in and out of there easily.

As the bulky man was staring at Ryder, Ryder was also gazing back at him.

Ryder was using his All-Seer to get more information about this man.

[Name: Dark Tooth]

[Profession: Smuggler]

[Species: Dungeon Dweller]

[Level: Unknown]

[Stats: Level too high to see]

[Skills: Level too high to see]

’As I expected, his level is too high for me to fight him like this now. I can only get by with some tricks,’ Ryder thought as he gazed at the screen in front of him.

He reached near the man who kept his eyes on him.

He stopped near him and looked back at him.

"What are you staring at?" the man asked Ryder, trying to

"May I ask if you have seen my Dark Grade Pendant here?" Ryder asked the man who was sitting in some distance.

"Dark Grade Pendant?!" The man exclaimed in shock as he heard Ryder’s words.

The Dark Grade was a grade of treasures here which was one of the highest grades. The treasures were so expensive that only the richest of the rich could possess them.

"Yeah. I had found it, but I dropped it somewhere around here. I can’t seem to find it. I’m a poor man and don’t have much money. I was hoping to sell that to earn something, but when I reached the shop, I realized that I didn’t even have it anymore," Ryder told the man with an innocent look on his face.

" I’m sure if it was dropped, it’s somewhere around here. Did you see it anywhere?" he asked the man.

The man blankly shook his head, whereas, in his mind, he could only think how amazing it was. If he could get the Dark Grade treasure, it was going to be so amazing.

"Oh, you didn’t see him. I will keep searching then," Ryder replied in concern as he shook his head, seeming a bit disappointed.

He started walking away, looking at the ground as if he was genuinely trying to find something.

The bulky man known as Dark Tooth had completely forgotten about his friend and was waiting for him. Instead, he was more interested in the pendant now.

He kept his eyes on Ryder. Only Ryder knew where he had walked and where he might have lost his pendant. If he kept his eyes on him, he might get to the Dark Grade treasure soon.

He slowly started following after Ryder, trying to act too casual.

A smile appeared on Ryder’s face as he realized that the man was following after him.

"Oh god! It’s here! I can’t believe I actually found it!" Ryder exclaimed out loud as if he was so excited that he had failed to control his voice.

He was so loud that the man who was on a horse behind him also managed to hear him.

Ryder bent forward and picked up something, and started laughing out loud.

"Little guy, you troubled me so much! But finally, I found you. Don’t worry; I won’t lose you again!" he exclaimed as he smiled.

Ryder turned back and noticed that the man in the house was near him.

A suspicious look arrived on his face as he placed his hand behind her back to hide something.

"What are you doing here?" he asked Dark Tooth.

"Why are you getting scared?" Dark Tooth grinned as he looked at Ryder.

"I’m only here, trying to help you find the pendant," he added with a smug look on his face.

"It’s fine. I already found it. I appreciate the intention, though. You can go back," Ryder replied as he took a short step back.

"Hahaha, what’s the hurry? Don’t worry. I’m here for you. Don’t be scared," the man said as he got down from the horse.

He started closing in on Ryder. "Can you let me see what a Dark Grade Pendant looks like? I want to be able to tell my children that I was able to touch such a high-grade item once. I’ll give it back to you right away," he added as he raised his hand towards Ryder.

"Ah, sorry. But I’m not comfortable giving that to you. Please forgive me. And don’t close," Ryder let out as he slowly kept stepping back.

"How cruel. Here I was, trying to help you, and you can’t even let me hold that pendant for a moment? Come on, don’t be that selfish," the man said as he didn’t stop.

He kept closing in on Ryder.

"I-i can’t! Please stop!" Ryder called out.

"You bastard! Enough of playing around! I thought the nice guy act would let me have it easy, but if you don’t want to go along with that, then I’ll force you!" The man roared as the expression on his face changed.

A sword appeared in his hand, which he aimed towards Ryder.

"If you don’t give me the sword, I’ll cut you in a thousand small pieces right here! Give me the sword!" he warned Ryder.

"I’m Dark Tooth! I’ve already killed tens of people already. So don’t try testing me!" He added.

"This..."

A complex look appeared on Ryder’s face, which was mixed with a bit of fear.

"But... It’s mine. Please let me leave with it," Ryder requested.

"I’m warning you for the last time! Are you giving me or not?" The man asked Ryder.

"Fine," Ryder let out as he unwillingly brought his arm to the front, revealing a pendant in his hand.

"Can you at least give me some money in exchange?" he asked.

"Hahaha, Of course. I’ll pay you the worth of this bracelet. I have lots of money with me. Give me the bracelet first!" Dark Tooth told Ryder with a cheeky grin.

Ryder thought for a while before he nodded his head. He started stepping closer to the man.

"No need to come close. Throw the pendant towards me!" Dark Tooth stopped Ryder from approaching him.

Ryder stopped as he tossed the bracelet towards the man.

The man caught the bracelet as a wider grin formed on his face.

"Give me my money now," Ryder told the man.

"Hahaha, you idiot. Don’t tell me you really expect me to pay you. I’m allowing you to leave with your life intact; you should be glad for that. Don’t even think about getting anything else! Scram now!" Dark Tooth started laughing at Ryder for talking about return.

It was obvious that he wasn’t going to give any money in return.

"Now run before I change my mind and kill you! Scram!" he threatened Ryder before he started laughing out loud.

Ryder looked down in disappointment before he turned back and started walking away. As soon as he turned back, a smile appeared on his face.
