Riser Phenex isn't a villain

Chapter 369: He is a gentle guy~!

After the "Rating Game," there was a party hosted in his city to celebrate his victory over the unbeatable champion, Diehauser.

While everyone knew that Riser would be the winner, nothing stopped the party as it was their chance to meet him.

Riser was quite elusive, and his work time was quite limited as he didn't like to work. His work was also so efficient that no time was wasted, so they could only try to meet him like this. It was also due to this that there were so many individuals that came, whether it was from the Norse Myth, Greek Myth, Chinese Myth, Hindu Myth, Angel, Fallen Angel, Devil, Youkai, Japan Myth, and many others.

All of them gathered together, trying to get to know Riser and also each other.

Frankly, this was the first time for something like this to happen, as no one expected that everyone could be under someone's rule.

Riser Lucifer.

Yet, even so, while some might not accept it, many also accepted it since his rule wasn't bad.

Riser was so lax that he mostly left the rest to his people as long as it wasn't something important.

As for the development of economics or other things, they were left behind by the others.

Moreover, in the worst case, they could suck the wealth of the humans as, unlike supernatural beings, humans had so much of numbers. They were greedy and insatiable beings, so there was no need for them to hesitate.

Riser knew that it might be wrong, but probably, in the eyes of the gods, a human was likelivestock.

Like how a human could kill livestock to eat, god could also kill a human for their own use.

It was as simple as that.

Nevertheless, the power of the Longinus changed everything.

Fortunately, Riser decided to take all the Longinus as it was too dangerous. No one disagreed. Instead, they all agreed since no one felt that they were safe with the Longinus.

As for the fact that Riser was the one who took the Longinus, so what?

They couldn't defeat him anyway, and he could kill them anytime, so why should they think too much?

Even with Longinus, Riser would, at best, be a little stronger than usual, so there wasn't much changed, and no one thought to challenge him other than the stupid ones.

Still, if they thought that they could trouble him, Riser had to say that they were wrong since his big project was about to finish, and he also had a spy organization like the CIA, KGB, MI6, Cabinet Intelligence and Research Office, or even RAW.

Yet, he knew that the world wouldn't let him be at peace.

While everyone was talking happily with him about many things and even invited him to visit their places, which he rejected, he noticed Michael's melancholy expression. "What's wrong, Michael?"

"Ri..." Michael stopped, then closed his eyes, then said firmly, "Riser-sama."

Riser raised his brow since he knew that it would be the first time for Michael to use the "-sama" suffix on him. Frankly, he didn't care what the others called him, but like it was as natural as a human breathing oxygen, they subconsciously used the "-sama" suffix on him. However, Michael was different after all, as he had been with him when he hadn't reached this height.

Moreover, no matter what, Michael was still an angel, a being who served under God and the enemy of the devil.

Even though they had become allies or even his subordinates, he knew that there was still resistance to Michael, but at this moment, Michael had probably already acknowledged that he was above everyone.

Was it due to the "Holy Affinity" that he received from Irina before?

There was a high chance, but it didn't matter since he wanted to know what was happening to Michael. It was easy for him to know what was happening as long as he asked his followers, but hearing it from the source was better, right?

It also showed Michael's loyalty to him.

Though, if Michael decided to betray him, it also didn't matter since the angel had no power to fight him.

All the resistance was meaningless.

It was like how Diehauser could do nothing in front of him.

Moreover, they got the peace that they sought after, and no one died anymore, so it was good, right?

Especially when Riser also helped with the completion of the Interdimensional Room, which gave the angel a chance to mate without becoming a fallen angel.

At this moment, the majority of the angels had listened to him much, but

"I know that I have promised you to meet the user of the Zenith Tempest, but he is... such a troublesome child."

Michael let out a helpless sigh.

A child has always been a child.

They firmly believed in their opinion without considering others, ignoring the consequences, and thinking that they had always been right.

If it was facing others, Michael would believe, but this child was going to face Riser!

Michael knew the consequences of facing Riser, so he might as well have expressed his thoughts directly, truthfully, without hiding anything.

Still, there was no doubt that Michael's words caused the mood of the party to slightly dampen, but Riser was as calm as ever.

"What are you going to do?"

"He is still a child. I hope to give him a chance since he is a good child, and as long as he learns, he will reflect, but what do you think, Riser-sama?"

Riser looked at Michael with a smile and thought that even if the angel was known for their pureness, they were still crafty, and they knew what they should do. In the end, an angel was a being that lacked a desire and was moved by their logic. Naturally, that didn't mean that it was as absolute as the fact that there was also a fallen angel.

"You can do what you want, Michael. I don't need to remind you."

"Thank you, Riser-sama." Bowing his head, Michael was full of sweat, thinking that he should give Gabriel as soon as possible so they could strengthen the tie with Riser, but as expected, the group of humans had always been in trouble, which made him helpless.

Riser didn't care about what was happening on the angel's side since it was a small problem for him. Nevertheless, as the party was over, he thought of going to his wife since he knew that she would reward him well.

"Huh?"

When Riser was on the bed, not only Sona but also a familiar silver hair was there whose face and body were slightly hidden on the blanket.

Was it Grayfia?

What a cute widow~!

Was she shy?

Yet, it didn't matter since he was going to be gentle.
