Riser Phenex isn't a villain

Chapter 353: His decision is final

Chapter 353: His decision is final

The "Rating Game" between Sona and Sairaorg was about to start soon.

No doubt this "Rating Game" attracted as much attention as the identities of the two were special.

Sairaorg was the heir to the Bael House, and Sona was the heir to the Sitri House, but more importantly, Sona was Lucifer's wife.

Frankly, there was no doubt that Sairaorg should have made a fake match by losing to Sona. While he didn't really want to, he knew that this was the best thing as he also didn't want to make his relationship with Riser become sour.

At this moment, it wouldn't be weird to say that Riser was the God.

Riser's status was different when they met for the first time.

Meanwhile, Sairaorg was nothing but just a talentless heir who relied on his physical ability. While he didn't say anything, he felt that he was unworthy of Riser's friendship and wished to show his strength. Yet, when he thought about his next opponent, he became awkward, and it made him wonder what to do.

Yet, strangely enough, when Sairaorg came to his mother and discussed this problem, his mother was strangely calm and told him to leave everything to her.

Still, Sairaorg didn't have much doubt since he knew that his mother had been living in the city that was built by Riser, so his mother should have a good relationship with Riser, right?

However, the reason why Sairaorg came to Riser's villa with his ancestor was about something else.

"So, Sairaorg has a Longinus?"

Riser looked at a young boy with spiky dark orange hair, golden eyes, and facial markings who stood behind Sairaorg and still bowed his head.

"Yes." Zekram nodded.

"I thought you would hide it from me?"

"I want to do so, but I know that it can be hidden from you, and you also announce your intention to collect all the Longinus in the world."

When Zekram heard Riser's intention to collect all the Longinus in the world, he supported Riser without hesitation. The fact that Longinus was dangerous didn't change. Not only was it the one that caused the destruction of the Norse Myth, but Azazel and Ajuka were also killed due to the Longinus. Frankly, until now, he really couldn't understand why God wished to share the power to kill the gods with humans.

Zekram felt like God was crazy, but it didn't matter since Riser had made it right.

Riser wished to get all the Longinus, so Zekram was going to support him.

"So, here is Regulus Nemea. Sairaorg had tamed him and made him into his pawn."

"Regulus Nemea?"

"Lucifer-sama."

Regulus bowed even deeper.

Riser was familiar with the Regulus Nemea, one of the Longinus, which was made from the famous Nemean Lion. Frankly, its ability was kind of bland as it could only split an earth with an ax and also protected the possessor from projectile-type attacks.

"Do you want him?" Zekram asked.

"..." Everyone.

No one said anything, or rather, they couldn't.

Even Sairaorg felt like the world stopped as he fell into a quagmire that he couldn't escape. He wanted to say something, but he couldn't since he knew that he didn't have a choice in this matter. If Riser wanted to take Regulus away, he could do nothing, but... but...

"It's okay. You don't need to. You have come to report to me about this matter, and I feel relieved. Moreover, it is Siaraorg who uses this Longinus, so I believe that he will use it to protect the alliance, right?"

"Yes, Lucifer-sama!"

Sairarorg wanted to cry at this moment and answered loudly.

Nevertheless, Zekram also sighed in relief and thought that he really needed to try to match Riser with Sairaorg's mother.

"By the way, you will have a match with my wife, right, Sairaorg?"

"Ah, yes." Sairaorg quickly became awkward when he heard Riser's question. "But... whatever you wish, I will definitely follow it." He might be rebellious, but he definitely wasn't shameless enough to ask Riser for another request by letting him fight Sona with all of his might.

Unlike when Lucifer was Sirzech when Riser was Lucifer, it was impossible for anyone to disrespect him. His aura was formidable, and whoever was affected by his aura would feel like they were lower than him.

Moreover, Riser also gained the DNA of the Lucifer inside him, making him into a real Lucifer.

Frankly, at this moment, as long as their races were a devil, they were as good as his slaves.

Riser might be Lucifer due to everyone, but there is no doubt that, at this time, his position was even greater than the original Lucifer, especially when he was the de facto leader of the alliance. Moreover, he also had Ophis by his side, and all the devils were on his side.

If Sairaorg still wanted to become a Maou, then he could only follow Riser's words. Moreover, it was hard to get excited to fight Sona. Sona was powerful, there was no doubt, but he knew that it was hard to have a hearty bloody fight since he also couldn't do so.

"It's okay. You don't need to worry. My wife isn't weak."

"...."

Sairaog wanted to say something, but in the end, he couldn't. The rash comments that he wanted to say were swallowed in his mouth. He took a deep breath and said, "Then, I will do my best to show my worth."

"That's the spirit." Riser nodded. "I hope that you can show an interesting battle, Sairaorg."

"I will." Sairaorg nodded.

Still, Riser had made a new Mocking Gear by using Tannin's body, and he was going to give it to Sona, which she would be using during her match against Sairaorg.

Longinus and Mocking Gears.

Which one was stronger?

If it was based on the origin, there was no doubt that it should be his Mocking Gear as it was crafted by using Tannin, but Regulus Nemea definitely wasn't weak, especially when it was used by Sairaorg.

Riser anticipated this match much.

What about his "Rating Game" with the champion?

Riser never thought too much about it since he knew that Diehauser Bellial wasn't even his opponent.

With everything settled, they talked for a while before the matter of the collection of the Longinus was announced. When everyone heard it, they were surprised for a while, but no one said much since most of the beings in this world didn't have a Longinus.

However, what if the Longinus was used by Riser?

Everyone could only laugh as it was impossible, but even if Riser was able to use the Longinus, it didn't change the fact that he was the strongest among all. Even if he didn't have the Longinus, no one thought that they were his opponents.

Yet, there was no doubt that this announcement brought many reactions, especially from those who owned the Longinus.

However, was there something that they could do?

Still, Riser didn't care about those reactions, and at the time, he was focused on training his wife and her peerage members on the upcoming "Rating Game" while also giving him a new Mocking Gear that he had crafted for her.
