Riser Phenex isn't a villain

Chapter 268: Nothing is going well

"Is it your time for the meeting?" Sona asked as she helped her husband with the tie.

"Yes."

Two days had passed after Sona's match against Rias.

On those two days, Sona and Riser spent their time together lovingly. The post-victory of the "Rating Game" might be better not to explain as it was definitely only suitable to be talked about between them and his women. However, there was no doubt that it was fun.

Nevertheless, before that party, Riser and many talked with Odin, who made a promise that he would become their alliance. As for whether what Odin had said was the truth or not, they could only wait. While many were in disbelief as everything happened too fast, Odin was the one with the highest position in the Norse Myths, so it was impossible for him to make a joke about this matter, right?

However, Riser never paid much attention to this since whether Odin became their ally or not, nothing really changed. The proof was that everyone was okay for so long, even God had passed away, and he didn't think that the other myths would be stupid enough to think that God would stay alive until now. Instead, he felt that the other myths thought they would let the angel, fallen angel, and the devil fight by themselves and then ruin themselves.

Yet who would have thought peace would come before the three of them?

While Riser hated Sirzech, he had to admit that Sirzech's persistence for the peace was worthy of acknowledgment. Nevertheless, it might be weird why he mentioned Sirzech even if Sirzech had passed away, but as he had become a Lucifer, he realized that he had become more like Sirzech. It wasn't that he wished to become one, but when one stood in this position, this act was necessary.

"Then, what is this meeting for?" Sona suddenly asked.

"Hmm... I am not sure yet."

This meeting wasn't about the Norse Myth, as the matter of Odin had been solved, but Odin would join this meeting as Odin had decided to become an ally, and at the same time, he knew that this problem might be related to the Khaos Brigade, the cancer of the world.

"Are you going back to the human world?" Riser asked.

"I don't really want to..."

Sona leaned on his chest as she muttered those words lazily. While they had spent a few days together, she felt that it was far from enough.

"Then, you don't need to go back."

Riser felt that there was no need for his wife to be busy.

"No, I will go to school." Sona hugged him tightly and said those words as her lips stuck onto his shirt, making her voice sound muffled.

Watching his wife, he gently hugged her slender body in his arms, patting her back.

"Do your best with your work."

Sona tiptoed, then kissed his lips.

"You too."

Riser accepted the kiss as he thought he had gone into a path he had never thought about. In the beginning, he only wished to become a household husband, mooching his wife, but now?

Riser realized that many things couldn't be controlled anymore, and he was really reluctant to leave his house. Sometimes, he felt like a shut-in; staying in the house all the time and spending days with his women were wonderful, but he knew that the world wouldn't be so kind.

If he didn't move, then his enemies might move, bringing ruin to his life, so he needed to fight since life was like this. It couldn't be well all the time.Erasing all the traces of weakness on his mind, Riser went into the meeting that would be held on the Lucifaad.

"Yo, Riser-kun!"

Riser, who wished to finish the meeting as soon as possible, met someone that he didn't really want to. "Odin." He then smiled and said, "You really enjoyed your stay in the Underworld, huh?"

"Of course! In my life, I will go all out to have fun!"

Odin proudly moved his hips lewdly as he thought about the wonderful days he spent for the past few days.

"....."

Riser fell in silence, then looked at the silver-haired beauty, who was also Odin's bodyguard. He could see that she was completely exhausted as she didn't even hit Odin when Odin made such a lewd gesture.

"Good job, Rossweisse."

Hearing those words, a light shone from her eyes before she burst into tears.

"Uwaaaa, Riser-sama!"

No one knew how painful the days Rossweisse spent with Odin were.

It was so horrible!

Still, as the two interacted, Odin made up his mind.

"So, what is this meeting for?" Odin asked curiously.

"I don't know."

"You don't know?" Odin was speechless.

"Don't look at me like that. I won't bother with a small thing, and all I do is supervise the general direction, maintaining the status quo."

"How unromantic and unambitious."

"Leave me alone. It's okay as long as everything is well. There is no need to do extra work to keep myself busy."

"....."

Odin fell in silence as it was his first time to see such an unmotivated Lucifer.

"However, since you are invited, it should be about the Khaos Brigade."

"Khaos Brigade, huh?" Odin's lazy appearance disappeared, and it turned into a rage.

Unlike in the original, the Khaos Brigade became more brutal as they attacked many myths without hesitation. Not only the devil, angel, and fallen angels but all others were assaulted by the Khaos Brigade. It was the same with the Norse Myth, as it also had many dead victims.

Riser knew this, and that was why he didn't even bother to ask why Odin showed such an expression. "Let's go. The faster we go, the faster we solve this problem."

"You are right."

The three of them then went to the venue and were greeted by Serafall.

"Riser-chan~!"

With Serafall, who latched on his back as usual, the meeting started as usual.

Still, Riser could see Ajuka and Falbium seemed to be closer for some reason, yet he didn't think that they became close due to conspiracy or they tried to do something that might harm him. Ajuka aside, he didn't think Falbium would do anything harmful to him. Instead, he felt like they might discuss something related to the heir of Glasya Labolas, who had died strangely in the past.

So why was Ajuka involved?

It was because the killer of the heir of the Glasya Labolas should be related to Ajuka.

"Today, I want to tell something to everyone." Ajuka took a deep breath and said, without a change in his emotion. "My little brother, Diodora Astaroth, is involved with the Khaos Brigade, and he also might be related to the death of the heir of the Glasya Labolas."

"..."

Everyone fell into silence as they thought everything became even messier.
