Riser Phenex isn't a villain

Chapter 295: Let's keep her!

Chapter 295: Let's keep her!

After five days, Riser finally let those who wished to meet him visit his villa. Naturally, he only let those on the top visit him, such as the other Four Maous, Zekram, Michael, and Baraqiel.

As for the rest?

Sorry, he still wanted to rest.

Still, unlike before, those who were invited didn't bring their companion, and they came by themselves without anyone by their sides. Well, even if they brought their companions, those companions didn't enter Riser's villa and were just left outside, waiting for the meeting for all the leaders to finish.

Azazel was also outside, wishing to enter, but he didn't dare.

Nevertheless, those who were inside were dumbfounded by their announcement.

"This is Ophis. The leader of the Khaos Brigade."

Riser introduced Ophis like he introduced his friend during a party.

Meanwhile, Ophis only nibbled a dango given by Riser with her small teeth as she sat on the oversized chair prepared by him inside the room.

"Sorry?" Falbium asked once again as if he didn't believe what he had just heard.

"This is Ophis. The infinite Dragon and also the leader of the Khaos Brigade."

Riser introduced Ophis once again without a fluctuation in his expression.

However, everyone fell silent and wondered what they should do in this situation. After all, they were so confused at why the leader of the Khaos Brigade would be by Riser's side.

"Why was she here?" Zekram asked calmly. As the oldest among them, he was probably the calmest, but he just didn't know how to react as it was his first time to see such a bizarre situation.

"Why you were here, Ophis?" Riser asked.

"Because I want to defeat Riser," Ophis said plainly.

"....." Everyone.

Riser then looked at everyone and asked, "So what do you think I should do?"

"...." Everyone.

If Riser's enemy was a great, fearsome opponent with a brutality that would cause every child to cry with all of their might, then there was no need for him to discuss his problem.

However, his enemy was a little girl who sat on his side and nibbled the dango he made.

When Ophis finished her dango, she pulled the hem of his shirt and asked, "Onii-chan, can I ask more?"

"No." Riser shook his head. "It's almost time for dinner. You shouldn't eat too much dango. It isn't healthy." His dango had no nutritional value except to be tasty and capable of brainwashing everythingrelated to animals to have absolute obedience toward him.

While he wasn't sure whether this dango would affect Ophis, he could tell that he had tamed her.

Still, Ophis, who couldn't receive her dango, didn't give up and kept staring at him.

"Even if you keep staring at me like that, I won't give you anything."

Riser rubbed Ophis' head helplessly, carried her in his arms, put her in his lap, and asked everyone, "So what do you think I should do with this criminal?"

"..." Everyone.

They just didn't know what to say.

Even if the one in front of them was a little girl, there was no doubt she was one of the strongest beings and also the leader of the most dangerous terrorist organization, Khaos Brigade.

Still, it was good that Riser asked about their opinion, but they also felt confused about what they should do with this little girl.

Should they keep this little girl?

However, what if the other factions misunderstand their relationship with the Khaos Brigade?

What if they return this girl to the Khaos Brigade?

So, shouldn't they make the Khaos Brigade stronger again?

Still, there was something that they wanted to ask: was this really Ophis?

Yet, they didn't dare to ask that question and looked at Riser, hoping he could erase their doubt.

Riser also understood this, then took out another dango and said, "I will give you one more."

Ophis wanted to take the dango, but she couldn't since his palm closed. She looked up at him and said nothing, but her eyes clearly showed dissatisfaction.

"I will give this dango to you, but you need to do something for me."

"Hmm?"

"Do you see that man with that green hair?"

Ajuka was dumbfounded.

"If you defeat him, I will give you another dango."

"Two dango." Ophis became smarter.

"Okay, two dangos." Riser nodded while feeling that Ophis was stupidly cute. "But don't kill him, and don't hurt the others, okay?"

"Okay."

However, Ajuka, who became Ophis' target, was startled, but before he could say anything, he was blasted by a powerful impact.

*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM!*

Ajuka plopped directly, defeated by Ophis, before flying out of the meeting room.

"Wh-what's happening?!"

"An enemy attack!"

"Hurry up and prepare!"

However—

"Be quiet."

At that moment, everyone felt a powerful aura from Riser, and they all fell into silence again.

When Riser was serious, he had always released an aura that would conquer everyone's will, and as long as they were weaker than him, they would give up, and there was no trace of resistance except for those who had a certain role within the story.

However, when he added the Haoshoku Haki to this aura to the aura that came from "Villain," it made him simply unstoppable, and all of them fell down directly.

Still, if this was enough to make all of them simply give up all the struggle, what if Riser added the "Chosen One"?

Wouldn't they just commit suicide?

Riser then snapped his fingers, and Ajuka, who had been thrown so far away, suddenly returned.

Everyone fell into silence again, but not by how Riser used the ability to return Ajuka to the meeting. Instead, they were surprised by many things, whether it was Ophis, Riser's aura, Ophis' obedience toward Riser, and many other things. They just... really didn't know how to react.

Still, Ajuka, who lost consciousness, also started to regain consciousness after being healed by Riser's flame.

"Are you alright, Ajuka-kun?"

Ajuka closed his eyes, then looked at Riser with a gentle smile. "Yes, Riser-kun."

Riser knew.

This was what was inside Ajuka's head, but then he wondered what he should do until suddenly he lost his calm when he saw Ophis was about to make a move once again.

"Stop, Ophis."

Riser put his hand on the top of Ophis' head, then took out two dangos for her.

"Here for you. Just eat quietly over there."

Riser was about to move Ophis to the other chair as he needed to continue the meeting, but she stuck with him and didn't want to move.

"I want to sit here."

"..."

Riser was speechless, then rubbed Ophis' head helplessly before noticing Serafall, who was looking at Ophis in jealousy, which made him even more speechless.

Why were you jealous?

Still, even after that, Serafall didn't meet him, or she just didn't know how to meet him, especially when everything was surreal.

Yet, the main theme of this discussion was about what they should do with this infinite dragon.

"Can you keep it by your side, Riser-kun?" Zekram suddenly asked.

"I don't mind, but what about all of you? Do you mind if I keep her here?" Riser asked.

What could they say in this situation?

Nothing.

In the end, all of them agreed that they left Ophis to Riser, especially when her appearance was nothing but an accident.

As for the Khaos Brigade and the other factions?

With Riser by their side, was there something they should be worried about?

Yet, for Azazel, who could only wait outside, he felt like everything was nerve-wracking.

"By the day, why did she call you Onii-chan?" Falbium asked curiously.

"Because I asked her to do so."

"....." Everyone.
