Chapter 591: Chapter 587: Water against Water

The man was casually walking when he suddenly stopped as if he had hit something. 

Ryder stopped the illusion for the old man while still keeping it for others. 

As the man saw Ryder suddenly appear before him out of thin air, his eyes opened wide as if he had seen a ghost. 

"You won't scream, and you'll listen to my commands," Ryder told the man, staring into his eyes. 

As Ryder spoke, his eyes shone briefly as his illusion was cast. 

The man seemingly went in a daze as soon as he looked into Ryder's eyes. 

"I will listen to your commands," the man said emotionlessly.

The guards in the distance noticed the man standing in the middle of the road.

"Is everything alright?" One of the guards in the distance asked. 

"Act normal and tell them that everything's fine," Ryder commanded the man. 

The man turned back, looking at the guards. 

"Everything is fine," he said out loud. "I was just thinking about something."
