While Rale and the others were waiting for Ryder's return inside the great hall of Duke Devilia's Palace, Ryder had already logged out of the game.
Ryder woke up in the real world and took off his Divinity Glasses as he sat up and hurriedly got off the bed.
He started running towards the room of Alice since Janus talked about saving Alice. It meant that Alice was in danger.
If he didn't save her in five minutes, she was going to be in danger, and one minute had already passed.
"Alice!" Ryder called out loud as he barged inside her room only to find it empty.
"Alice!" He screamed again, but the place was empty. Alice wasn't inside the house.
"Janus! Where is she?!" Ryder let out like crazy as he ran towards the exit of the hour.
He opened the door to see if she was outside.
Since the mission was to save her in five minutes, she must be somewhere nearby, he thought.
