Chapter 376 - 372: Thought Of Attack
The players also had the ability to show their guild names below their names once they joined a guild.
They could make that information private too. This privatization worked really well in hiding the usernames of the ones that wanted the others not to know what their usernames were; however, there was a flaw in it.
If a Player was five or more levels higher than the other player, they could see the username of another player even if it was private and hidden.
Ryder kept his username private previously, and if he kept that, no one would be able to know he was Hades unless he used the treasures that gave away his identity. Despite that, Ryder made his username public now.
He was using a fake face for his Avatar using the
"Huh! Look at the name of that player!
"
"H-he's Hades! The top player in Level and Treasure Rankings and the Rank 2 Player in Fame Ranking!
"
"He's walking with the Princess of this Kingdom! Did he get some Quest from the Royal Family?
"
"That must be it! The Quest must have something to do with the Princess!
"
As Ryder walked with the Princess, more and more people started talking about him. They were less concerned about the fact that someone was walking with the Princess and more about the fact that it was Ryder who was doing it.
Ryder's character Hades was one of the two most known characters in Divinity, at least in American Servers. As each country had a different server where the players of that country played, none could interact with the players of other countries who played on their own servers. That's why most players didn't bother with anything outside the server of their own.
They didn't know who the top players of other servers were; however, they were sure that the chances of them catching up to Ryder was almost impossible.
Before the Necrosis Corporation updated the system, where no one could see the level of players unless they were one rank higher or lower, everyone had seen Ryder's level.
While most players had barely become level ten players, Ryder had surpassed level fifty.
The second most known player in this server, Lucifer, was number one in fame Ranking and number 2 in Level Ranking; however, he wasn't even closer to Ryder in terms of levels before the Company hid the levels of all the players.
Even though other players didn't know how Lucifer was faring according to his levels however they were sure that he couldn't be on the same level as Ryder. They didn't have that much faith in Lucifer since they had seen the monster called Hades, which was Ryder's in-game-name.
The players were praising and talking about the possible reasons behind Ryder's appearance here; however, there was a certain group of people that were looking at Ryder with a malicious gaze.
"Forget about everything! Think about all the Unique Grade Items he owns! If we can kill him, we should be able to get some of his treasures! We can hunt even more fiercely if we had the same treasures as him! We should be able to reach the top of the rankings as well!
" One of the bald players said, watching Ryder from behind the crowd.
" Have you gone crazy? Did you forget about what happened to the last group of people that followed Master Planner to kill Hades outside the city?
" Another player replied, shaking his head strongly.
"Hmm? What do you mean? What had happened? Can you tell me?
" the Bald Man asked, not knowing what his friend was talking about.
"I read in an online forum that Hades was last seen in this city a few weeks ago. According to the thread, some players decided to do what you suggested just now. Hundreds of players agreed to do it. They were lead by a man known as the Master Planner,
" the other player started explaining to the bald man.
" What do you think would have happened? More than a hundred strong players attacked a single Hades, and it was before the Level Rankings were taken private,
" he continued.
" Obviously, he would die if he was attacked by hundreds of players. Even that much level difference can't overcome the assault of hundreds of players. If that's true, how come I didn't hear about Hades being killed before?
" The bald man asked. However, he suddenly realized something.
"Wait! Don't tell me he killed all of them?
"
He was shocked by his own conclusion, but he still couldn't believe it.
" No! Ah, right. How could I forget about this? He must've escaped! He'll have faster speed with his high levels!
" He came up with an excuse for himself.
"He killed them all! Not a single one of them was left alive! This thread was written on the forum by one of the players who was killed. Many other players who were killed verified the events described in this thread. There's no way for it to be a lie!
" the other player replied, sighing.
"Do you still want to kill Hades?
" he asked the Bald Player.
"Ahh! No, I would have to be crazy to try to kill him after knowing all that! This guy is really a monster! I want to stay as far away from him as possible,
" the Bald Player lamented as he wiped the sweat off of his forehead.

"Ah, that empty land. That seems to be perfect for establishing my guild when I can. Do you have any idea how much I would need to pay to your father to get this land in my name?
" Ryder asked Aslina, who was holding his hand as if she was afraid that he would leave her again.
"You! You're going to be my husband. Do you really think my Father would take money from you? Treat this land as yours. I would tell father,
" Aslina said as she rolled her eyes.
"It's not that. I need documents of the transfer of property to create a guild. It's better if I pay for it,
" Ryder replied, pretending a little bit.
"Hmph, don't ever talk about paying in our family again. We don't pay or take money from family, and you're part of our family now. You want transfer documents? I'll tell father. He will arrange for it,
" Aslina answered, pouting a little.
"Hahaha, fine. If you say so,
" Ryder answered, happy that he could create a guild here without any trouble.
