Chapter 586 Need of Sleep
Chapter 586: Need of Sleep
Ryder left the hotel and got into his car, which he took near the airport. The flight was in the early morning, and not many hours were left to it. He decided to stay in the car for the night since it was only a few hours.
Setting his alarm, he closed his eyes as he started sleeping while sitting.
Even though it seemed a bit uncomfortable, he soon fell asleep, only to be woken up at the sound of the alarm in the morning.
He slowly opened his eyes as he looked outside. It had started to get bright out. He opened the gates and stepped outside.
As Ryder stepped out, he was able to stretch his arms while yawning. He was still sleepy, but he couldn’t rest anymore as he needed to get to a flight while also taking care of the car. He couldn’t keep it back as there were people here.
After stretching a little, he got back in the car as he started finding an empty place.
"There it is," he said as he noticed an empty place. He stopped the car and stepped out. After observing his surroundings, he sent the car back before he took a cab to take him back to the airport.
He checked in the airport and entered the flight after going through all the necessary steps.
As the flight distance wasn’t long, Ryder realized that he couldn’t get proper sleep, but he could still have another short nap which he took.
"Excuse me?"
As Ryder was sleeping, he woke up as he felt someone shaking his shoulder. Opening his eyes, he noticed a fellow passenger.
"We have landed," the passenger told Ryder.
"Ah, thank you." Ryder opened his seat belts and started getting off the plane as well.
He left the airport without any luggage since all he needed was inside his inventory. Stepping outside the airport, he took a cab and told the driver to bring him to the nearest hotel.
Since he hadn’t been able to complete his sleep properly, he was feeling tired. And the short naps only made him more sleepy.
He booked a room in the hotel that was shown to him by the cab driver and went to his room.
As soon as he went to his room, he fell on the bed, saying, "Finally."
He could get a good sleep now.
His sleep lastest for eleven hours before he actually woke up, still feeling tired.
"What’s happening? How can I sleep for so long today?" He wondered as he got off the bed.
"Your body is tired since you absorbed so much strength in such a short time. Don’t worry; it’s nothing dangerous. You just need rest," Janus informed Ryder, who was getting worried if something was wrong with him.
"Won’t it get worse if I absorb more then?" Ryder asked, frowning.
"It won’t. Just keep doing what you are," Janus calmly replied without explaining much. "It’s just your body getting stronger. Get good sleep after every absorption, and you’ll be fine. You won’t even notice anything," Janus explained.
"Alright. I’ll do that." Ryder replied, nodding. "Anyway, it’s time to get to work."
He got off the bed, stepping his feet on the cold floor. He took off his clothes, tossing them back in his inventory before he brought another pair of clothes. He tossed the new clothes onto the bed before he walked inside the shower room.
Turning on the overhead shower, he started taking a shower.
Knock! Knock!
As he was in the shower, there was a knock on the door of his room. He could hear the knock. Realizing that it must be the room service with the food, he turned off the shower and started wiping his body.
After drying himself, he wrapped the towel around his waist as he left. Going straight to the gates, he opened it.
Just as he expected, it was the room service guy who was here with the breakfast.
"Place that on the table," Ryder told the man, letting him enter as he stepped aside.
The man stepped inside the room and placed the food on the table before he left.
Ryder walked back to the bed and got dressed before having breakfast.
As he finished the breakfast, he opened his laptop and started searching more about the Prince who was going to be his next target.
"As expected, unlike others, this Prince is different. He doesn’t seem to have a schedule like others. He randomly leaves and attends events without anyone having any idea that he is coming. If I want him, I can’t set traps in other places."
" I still need to wait outside his palace for him to leave the Palace if I want to go after him. But that would be hard too. He comes with his security. I doubt I can get him alone. If I want to get him, I’ll need to get inside the Royal Palace," he said as he looked at the picture of the Royal Palace.
"My illusion can fool the staff. Entering wouldn’t be hard. But the problem would be the cameras. The illusion can’t fool the cameras. I can use the items to disable the cameras, but first, I need to enter the Royal Palace. Only then can I use that. But if I went there, I would already be recorded before I activate that thing."
"And if the cameras are disabled when I’m there, the suspicions would straight go to me," he said as he smiled wryly. "That’s what I certainly don’t want."
"I can use two methods, though. Either I should hypnotize a staff from Palace to make him do it, or kidnap one and transform my body into his Hypnotize options seems better," Ryder thought as he decided on a plan.
"Even then, I need to stalk the Palace first. I should be careful with that."
He wore a jacket with a hoodie before he left the hotel.
He walked on the roads of the city, only stopping in a place where he couldn’t find anyone. He once again brought his Sports Car. He even cast an illusion on his number plate to make it seem like a number from England.
Stepping inside the car, he turned on the GPS to lead him to the Royal Palace as he was unaware of the roads. It was his first time coming here, after all.
As he drove the expensive car, he attracted many gazes, including some from the owners of other expensive cars as he stopped at the traffic signals.
One such couple was sitting in the car, which had stopped right beside him. The man was looking at the car with a jealous gaze. His girlfriend was also looking at Ryder’s car, fascinating.
"That’s such a sexy car. Josh, why don’t you buy it too?" The woman asked the man, holding his hand.
"Do you know how expensive that car is? I can’t afford it. Let alone buying it, the importing cost and the tax on top would be so high. Be happy with what I have," the man let out, rolling his eyes.
"Cheh, you’re just stingy. I wish he were my boyfriend instead," the lady let out, pouting. "He’s so handsome too.’
Ryder was able to hear their conversation even though he didn’t let it show on his face.
He glanced at the couple who was sitting in their car. The man seemed to be looking at his girlfriend, trying to make her understand as their argument started.
The light soon turned green. He started the car and left the bickering couple behind.
He soon reached near the Royal Palace. He parked his car in the distance as he stepped out.
He approached the palace on foot while casting his illusion to make himself invisible.
As he approached the palace, he noticed that there were cameras everywhere. He believed the cameras were recording him, but it didn’t matter. He wasn’t inside the palace. He was just like an ordinary man who was walking on the roads.
He found a blind spot from the cameras near the Palace where he stopped.
Folding his arms, he started waiting. He had the direct view of the entrance and the exit of the Royal palace to keep an eye on here.
He was waiting to see if someone was going to leave or not.
Two hours passed soon, and there was no movement.
"This is so boring. Come on, come out fast! I don’t have all day!" He softly said in frustration.
It seemed like the gods listened to him as the gates of the Palace opened. A man stepped out of the Palace.
Ryder didn’t know who this man was, but he seemed like an important person inside the palace as the guards talked to him with respect.
The man also talked back to the guards just as kindly before he started coming in the direction of Ryder.
Ryder also stepped towards the man, ready to take action.
