Riser Phenex isn't a villain

Chapter 280: Unfathomable

Chapter 280: Unfathomable

By using the "Location," Riser found Georg, and by using his "Warp Warp no Mi" ability, it was easy for him to teleport the owner of the Dimensional Lost in front of him. Nevertheless, he didn't plan to kill Georg.

No, he planned to take Dimensional Lost!

"Why-Why?! Why can't I use my Longinus?!"

Georg, whose neck was grasped by Riser, was in disbelief as he was unable to use his Longinus!

Riser only smiled and didn't intend to explain why Georg was unable to use his Longinus as it was meaningless. Nevertheless, if someone forgot why he could make Georg unable to use his Longinus, it was all due to the ability he stole from Rivezim.

By using "Degrenate," he separated the "Sacred Gear Canceller" ability from Rivezim and gained this ability.

With this ability, no matter how strong the Dimensional Lost was, it was meaningless since it couldn't be activated.

Nevertheless, facing a Sacred Gear user, was Riser invincible?

The answer is yes.

Nevertheless, it didn't mean this ability was invincible since there was a limit.

However, was there even any existence that could break this limit?

Riser couldn't imagine it and thought that as long as they were a Sacred Gear user, all of them could only bow down under him.

"Georg!"

Everyone was dumbfounded by the change of situation. Previously, they were full of confidence, especially when they had gone on a rampage on the Norse Myth. They caused mayhem and were even on the verge of collapsing the entire Norse Myth, but facing Riser?

The thought of winning couldn't cross their minds at all, and all of them became hopeless as they thought about their fate, which was as good as dead.

Diodora and his peerage members were also scared silly, and they were unable to do anything as they could only piss on their pants, hoping for the Khaos Brigade to win.

Only—

"Venetian Shock."

At that moment, all of them suddenly felt dizzy, and they lost all of their powers before crumbling to the ground, losing their consciousness.

Not even one of them remained, and all of them fell like a domino.

The only ones left were Diodora and his peerage members, who stood in a daze as they were unable to believe the scene before them.

Heat syncope.

This was the secret behind his technique, which was fainting or dizziness as a result of overheating.

By enveloping his opponents' bodies with heat, Riser could easily defeat them without even raising his hands. Still, some of them even burnt into ashes directly without leaving any remains.

"...."

Diodora and his peerage members even became dizzy as their bodies were trembling due to fear as they saw how easily Riser defeated all of them. Frankly, except for standing, they couldn't see Riser doing anything!

Yet, for one thing, Riser's power was unfathomable.

Riser, who was holding Georg, who passed out on his arm, looked at Diodora with a smile and said, "Thank you for baiting them here, Diodora-kun."

"Ah, uh, yes, it's my pleasure to serve you, Riser-sama."

Diodora quickly kowtowed and showed his allegiance.

The rest also followed, hoping for Riser to forgive them.

As for why Riser didn't kill all of them and only a few, they didn't understand, but even if they were curious, they didn't dare to say anything.

Riser also ignored them and just took out the Dimensional Lost from Georg's body. Still, he thought that it would be difficult as Dimensional Lost was a Longinus, but it seemed it was easier than he had thought. It was so easy that he was speechless, and the moment he got his hands on this Longinus, he could easily manipulate it like it was his limb.

"If you want to see, just see, but don't talk."

Diodora felt that his heart was almost stopped, and he was just in fear at that moment, but at the same time, he was also marveled by Riser's power that was capable of stealing the Dimensional Lost and using it at ease.

Still, he followed Riser's words faithfully since Riser's words were absolute, especially when his life was in Riser's hands.

Nevertheless, Riser thought that this Dimensional Lost worked well with his "Moku Moku no Mi" ability, and he could combine it easily. There might be a big difference between smoke and mist, even if their shape was quite similar, but it wasn't difficult for him to combine the two abilities.

'Is it due to there not any soul residing in the Dimensional Lost?'

Unlike the Boosted Gear or the Divine Dividing, which had the souls of Ddraig and Albion inside, there was nothing inside the Dimensional Lost. It was just a tool. Nothing more, nothing less.

Still, what should he do with Georg here?

Should he kill him?

"No."

Instead, he might as well use Georg, especially since he got his new reward.

[Congratulations, you have received "Link."]

It was an ability that made him capable of taking on the powers of others who allied themselves with him. This ability didn't make him steal the abilities of others. Instead, as long as someone gave him permission to use their abilities and energies, he would become even stronger!

In other words, it was a perfect power for a leader like him!

With an alliance of devils, angels, and fallen angels, along with the East Youkai Faction and also the Japanese pantheons, as long as all of them lent their power to him, he was simply invincible!

Well, even if they didn't lend him their powers, he was still invincible.

Nevertheless, the reason why this ability was suitable for him was because he could lend his abilities to his ally, too.

As he had taken Dimensional Lost from Georg, this guy had lost the ability to control the Dimensional Lost.

However, with "Link," Riser could lend Georg the ability of Dimensional Lost.

Now, why did he do this?

It was because he needed Georg to become his eyes on the Hero Faction within the Khaos Brigade.

By looking into Georg's memory, Riser understood many things about the Hero Faction, especially when Georg was the sub-leader of this faction, and because of this, he knew the real power of the leader and their connection with a few other myths.

The Hero Faction didn't matter, but the relationship of the Hero Faction with these other myths was troublesome, especially when this group of myths wasn't weak.

Riser was busy with something, and he wanted to clear up those troubles first, but more importantly, he didn't want to be caught in more trouble. He also felt that the Hero Faction could become a good scapegoat for him, so for his power of "Memo Memo no Mi" to work well, he needed to make some adjustments.

When everything cleared up, Riser used his "Memo Memo no Mi" power.

"Echo Erasure."

At that moment, all the memories of those who had attacked him except for Diodora and his peerage members changed.

Throwing Georg away like trash, Riser then looked at Diodora with a smile.

Diodora didn't dare to talk and just looked at Riser with an awkward smile.

Riser didn't say anything and suddenly released the power of "Peto Peto no Mi," putting a collar on Diodora's neck.

"Ri-Riser-sama...!"

Diodora was scared silly when his neck was caught in a collar!

"Kill yourselves by grasping your own neck."
