Riser Phenex isn't a villain

Chapter 240: Humilation

Chapter 240: Humilation

Villain.

It was a skill that Riser had previously received after he had taken down antagonist groups. This skill might not have increased his power or made him powerful, but it gave him an aura of conqueror.

The Chosen One.

Those words were probably suitable to describe his current aura.

Riser hardly used this aura; he only used it in the fight, as it would make anyone who was weaker than him give up their will to fight as they knew their existence was lower than him.

However, Riser used this skill now, and he didn't hold back, considering he knew how insolence and reckless the young generation was.

At that moment, everyone in this place and everyone in this city was hit by this aura.

Those who revered him were the lucky ones as they became more obsessed with him, but those who felt that Riser wasn't suitable as Lucifer felt their hearts were crushed, and they felt they would die.

Those who were weak could only lower their eyes as they bowed down toward him.

Those with a certain strength could look at him, but all of them thought that they were just an insect in front of him.

Nevertheless, Ajuka, Falbium, and Serafall were dumbfounded.

Serafall was okay, as she knew Riser was amazing, but Ajuka and Falbium felt their hearts shaken.

Still, Falbium quickly accepted everything as he knew that he wasn't that powerful, but Ajuka was different.

Was Riser so strong?

Ajuka was shocked.

Although Ajuka had previously said that Riser's strength was comparable to Sirzech's, it was nothing but lip service as he wished to use Riser as a way to attract the attention of Vali, the killer of Sirzech.

However, Vali didn't move, making Ajuka annoyed, thinking that Vali was a coward.

As for Riser's involvement with the killing of Sirzech, Ajuka had never thought so. It was everything due to his prejudice that he wished to think so. After all, he knew how much Sirzech hated Riser, and he just wished Riser would follow Sirzech, who had entered the eternal darkness.

Frankly, it might be a hasty decision to erase Riser's involvement with the death of Sirzech, and more importantly, how could Riser kill Sirzech?

Not only was Riser in the Underworld during what had happened, but Riser also had no ability to do anything to Sirzech, who was far away.

Lastly, Riser was still young.

Even if Riser was powerful, there should be a limit to what kind of abilities he had learned.

Based on his understanding, Ajuka knew that Riser's skill focused on the Phenex's ability, which was wind, fire, and immortality.

Those abilities were the reason why Ajuka erased his doubt on Riser.

Yet, it didn't change the fact that Ajuka wished to pull Riser into the whirlpool of this trouble as he wished to get his hands on Sirzech's killer. He was going to make Vali and those who were involved regret touching Sirzech.

However, Ajuka didn't expect Riser to grow to be this strong!

This made Ajuka feel conflicted, and he knew making Riser follow Sirzech to the eternal darkness wasn't as easy as he thought.

Nevertheless, high echelons aside, the younger generation, who faced Riser's aura directly, was stunned in a place.

Sona and Rias aside, Sairaorg Bael, Zephyrdor Glasya-Labolas, Seekvaria Agares, and Diodora Astaroth stood still as they were unable to move.

Zephyrdor, Seekvaria, and Diodora quickly bowed down, showing their greatest respect toward him as their hearts were filled with fear, but Siaraorg tried to hold on, yet unfortunately, it was only for a moment before he fell.

Sairaorg might be powerful, and he had trained his body to the limit, but as expected, there was still a limit.

Facing Riser, who had grown stronger due to the system, everything was meaningless.

Talent is only talent.

If that talent hadn't grown and become powerful, they were nothing.

However, when they become powerful, Riser won't feel afraid since he will become even stronger.

Still, Riser had to say, he felt a bit disappointed in Sairaorg since he didn't focus on his aura at Sairaorg, yet Sairaorg was unable to hold on.

However, as expected of Sairaorg, even if he fell down, he didn't give up and kept trying to fight Riser's aura.

Nevertheless, Riser had never focused on Sairaorg. Instead, he was staring at Issei. No, he focused on the existence inside Issei.

There was no need to worry about Issei as he was nothing but a perverted boy. Except for his trained hands, he had no other redemptions. However, the existence inside him was different.

The Red Dragon Emperor.

Riser knew that as long as this giant lizard existed, the chance of Issei growing stronger was high. Still, to be honest, he didn't fear the Red Dragon Emperor. Even if this lizard was one of the reasons why God in the bible passed away, he didn't fear it, especially when he owned the Ruler.

(I know that God is dead due to 666, but the Heavenly Dragons are also part of the reason).

All the attacks were meaningless to him, and it would make him stronger instead.

Riser also read the record of the "Boosted Gear," and according to that record, the stronger user was only so-so.

In the end, even if the "Boosted Gear" gave the power of that stupid lizard, those humans couldn't replicate its power. While it might give them the power to kill a God, there were many Gods in this world, and many of them couldn't fight and weren't strong enough, so there was no need to fear it.

'Moreover...'

Using his "Area of Invisible," no one realized the gauntlets on his hands. Those gauntlets weren't his creation. Instead, it was something made by the power of "Kote Kote no Mi."

By using this ability, everything that he grabbed could be controlled.

Riser could use Unknown Dictator and Star Buster Star Blaster with the power of "Kote Kote no Mi."

While Riser hadn't tried this power of the "Kote Kote no Mi" on Longinus, he had confidence that he could use them.

The system might give him powerful abilities, items, skills, and various others, but even without the system, there were still many ways for him to grow stronger.

Still, Issei was naturally affected by Riser's aura, and he could only prostrate on the ground, showing his highest respect.

While Ddraig was furious at his host who could fall so low, suddenly, he was hit by Riser's aura, too. At that moment, he felt his mind was being conquered, and he was forced to bow down like his host.

Ddairg wanted to roar, yet he couldn't.

It felt like space and everything in the world forced him to bow down.

Ddraig was furious as a mere devil dared to appear so arrogant in front of him, yet at the same time, he was also in terror as Riser's power was stronger than he had imagined.

'How dare you!''

Yet, all of his resistance was futile, and like his host, Ddraig could only bow down in front of the overwhelming power.

Even in front of his rival, the White Dragon Emperor, the God who had killed him, and all the beings that Ddraig had provoked, it was the first time Ddraig received this humiliation.

There was no fear.

Only shame and anger were left, yet Ddraig could do nothing as a strange feeling that he had never felt before started to grow within his heart.

As the Heavenly Dragon, Ddraig had never felt this feeling, and it was also because of this he was unfamiliar.

Terror.

If one could name it, this would be the name.
