Ding!!
A sudden sound caused Ryuk to halt in his way, turning his attention towards the newly materialized screen.

ALERT!!!
One of the Targets of Enslavement Grimoire is Missing.
Missing Target name - Wang

'He died too?' Observing the things taking a completely opposite approach instead of the way he wanted them to be, Ryuk felt confused and curious about this whole thing.
It was clear to him from the moment he hired Elsa as his maid and ensured she treated her niece the way he wanted—but somehow his Mother appointed Alia as his personal maid.
Edward got out of his hand when he tried to kill him—Suddenly someone arrived from the outer world, even Jenny found herself by her real family, which had never happened in the previous life.
Ryuk's curiosity was: how far could heaven go to favor its loved children?
The major reason for him to turn back time with these heroines was to teach them a lesson, but he knew that heaven would try to manipulate things even if he reversed the time.
In the end, even his System seemed to not give him information related to the World's will, clearly pointing towards the heaven's strength momentarily being stronger than everything he possessed.
This prompted him to bring the Heroines with him back to let their memories overshadow their progress; in the end, the same cycle will repeat, but this time they would have came after becoming much stronger.
By ensuring that each one of them didn't develop accordingly, causing him to make them busy with their past memories and present ones.
'System, who killed that guy?' His curiosity was evident since Wang's age was too much for a normal expert to kill him, since Ryuk never believed that one's level was the sole reason that ensures their victory; experience plays the biggest role.
[ Host, Wang's death is due to excessive Energy exhaustion, there seems to be rapid draining of his Energy due to engaging in battle with Someone, causing him to lose remaining Vitality ]
'Where is Mother', Ryuk inquired since he didn't feel her presence nearby.
[ Host, She is inside a different space with a separate time Zone ]
'Wait?' Ryuk halted the system, before processing all the sudden information, he continued 'What different Space, How different time is there, and could she come safe out of it'
[Space is the result of a special trait originating from the Outside world ]
'I see' Ryuk grasped the intervention of the outside world, which seemed visible in Wang's case too, thinking something he commanded system 'Purchase Energy Stabiliser'
SWOOSH
Suddenly, the mana particles surrounding his body started to move in front of him before halting in midair, the bright blue light feeling a jar of human shape seemed visible.
Slowly a body started to materialize looking exactly like Ryuk, but there was not any aura surrounding it, seemingly completely normal.
'Use Energy Stabilizer on this thing', Ryuk ordered while his gaze reflected a figure looking like him yet seemed without any strength, like a doll without life.
It was one of his abilities that he had developed by using his previous world knowledge and resources of the present world.
Mana is an energy that seems mysterious from the outside perspective but Ryuk sees it otherwise, for him, Mana is like Electricity, which is easily convertible into any other forms which are Pyro(fire), Aqua(water), Terra(Soil), Aero(Air) and finally, Aethera(Spirit).
Just like how white light gives off seven colors and on mixing each colour, one could get 5040 different shades, Magic is just like that, with a suitable combination of those elements, one can achieve enormous results.
Seemingly complicated yet very basic principle behind everything, just as how the human body is made of these five elements, the creation of anything refer as Magic is based on the same principle.
So, the only mysterious thing is the way these elements are combined to get the desired result, and this is where Ryuk's knowledge of the previous world came into play.
His early days were all passed while engrossed in understanding the methods of better utilization of Mana, from which, he developed many techniques which were a combination of knowledge from his previous world and this world.
Several wooden carriages carrying diseased patients were brought by people wearing white robes, symbolizing their identity as Paladins from Goddess Fela's Monestry.
Everyone's last hope was this treatment camp created by Monastery to isolate ill people, making them recover sooner with the help of several healers.
"I-I want to live, Please save me, Your Grace" A woman filled with red marks with dim eyes begged the man sitting in front of her on a wooden carriage.
"Have faith in us, You will be fine, trust Goddess" A bright smile adorned the man's face, looking towards the woman with a gaze filled with honesty and genuine emotions.
There is a saying that human's eyes can never lie.
An Absolute lie, Unlike animals whose eyes mirror their emotions, humans are far more complicated, and right now, the man's pristine attire with a handsome face was like an Oleander— beautiful yet poisonous.
CRUMBLE
Suddenly Carriage disbalanced before it could enter the Cave completely, due to the sudden impact, causing the land to shake.
"W-what happened—?!" Man came out of his carriage to see the cause of such Interruption in their noble cause but what greeted him was a big ship, tore through snow, it seemed the ship crashed with the ground while moving at enormous speed.
"Is everyone Alright" Several mens ran out of the cave , only to observe the ship while others swiftly entered it to see what caused it to crash instead of entering inside.
White robes revealed their identity as Members of the Monastery.
Slowly reaching the ship, several men boarded it, observing the whole thing but what visited them was crimson painted walls of the ship, only destruction, while a lone figure sat at the center over a wooden box.
"W-who are you?!" Arrived men seemed to feel startled because the figure reflected in their eyes seemed very similar to someone they knew.
Swish
Small gust of wind passed caressing black fluttering hair of Ryuk while his Amber gaze seemed to be accentuated with moonlight, small blood stains visible on his face adding a devilish look.
A calm voice left Ryuk's mouth," You think, I am a Devil" With those words, he slowly stood, bloodied floors, and crimson stains all over him, adding an eerie.
"Believe me, You not seen even half of it....."
A smile formed on his lips, and tilting his head with that small smile caused the remaining struggle in these people's hearts to vanish.
.

"Kughh!.....H-have Me-rc-y" A man lifted in the air supported by a hand Clenching his neck, struggled while his limbless body drenched in blood stuck in a position where his eyes reflected two amber orbs.
CRACK
THUD
The last body fell on the cold ground, turning towards the exit of the cave, observing intensely while a small sound was audible to Ryuk.
While moving, leaving behind the path only filled with now lifeless bodies, he felt nostalgia after visiting this place, where he met his first sparring partner— Inky.
Exiting the way, his eyes ignored the whole mountain of rotten things lying in front of his eyes, not giving much attention to it.
His eyes searched for someone special.
"Kkhhwweekkk!!"
SWISH
'Here you are', Suddenly a sound came from behind accompanied by an attack that was stopped mid-way by his hands.
Gripping tightly Ryuk's gaze turned towards the mud-like black humanoid thing, oozing bubbles with a big red stone in its middle, looking at it, a cold glint passed through Ryuk's eyes.
"Inky, you seem to become even more wild which definitely doesn't suits you"
