Sitting side by side, Misla leaned on his shoulder intimately as she tried to catch her breath.
On his side, Riser had also calmed down, so when he saw the bruising on Misla's neck and shoulders, he felt guilty.
"I am sorry."
He might have realized this, but due to the stress he had always encountered, he always put and released all that dissatisfaction into his women.
It was also due to this that when they had sex, he became brutal and often very rough with them.
Akeno aside, as she was a masochist, Misla was different. She was the wife of Lord Bael and the mother of Sairaorg. Moreover, she was still sick with the "Sleeping Disease."
Yet, he didn't even show mercy and mated her like an animal in heat.
Riser realized how pathetic he was and knew that his tough exterior was nothing but a disguise to hide his cowardly self and weakness.
As he healed those brushes with his magic, Misla smiled and kissed his lips.
"It's okay. You don't need to feel guilty. It feels so good to me."
After he healed her, she hugged him and put his face into her soft, bountiful, naked breasts.
"As I have said before, I will accept your everything. I can't help you with anything, but I can give you comfort. When you need someone to release that emotion, use me, okay?"
"...why you so accommodating me?"
As he was a good-for-nothing, he didn't understand why so many women would give their everything to support him. When he was just using them as a place to release his emotions, like a toilet, they kindly accepted everything and let themselves be used by him.
Why were they so stupid?
Yet, at the same time, why were they so kind?
Facing such purity, Riser was unable to look straight.
"Because I love you."
"....."
Watching him widen his eyes, Misla chuckled. "I am sure that I am not the only woman who feels like that. There are many women who feel like that. They wish to be your strength, help you, and stay by your side. Nevertheless, they know their limitations and can also tell how you push them away, as if you are afraid to involve them with your matters.
"But, you underestimate me and them. Unlike you guys, who use their logic and everything, we follow our feelings. In your eyes, there is no doubt that our actions are stupid, but we won't regret it.
"So, just follow what you believe, as I will be there to be your support."
She hugged him tightly, letting him rest on her chest.
Only when she hugged him tenderly, showing her love, he sucked her nipple.
"Geez... I am talking about something serious now."
Misla looked at him helplessly as she softly brushed his hair.
"Enough of talking about something serious. Let's just have fun now."
There was no doubt her love moved him, but if he was going to rest due to those words and let himself fall into that comfort, then she had underestimated him.
He had decided to walk on this path.
It was impossible for him to stop.
Nevertheless, knowing that someone could be by his side, supporting him no matter what the situation was, giving him a spirit and erasing the doubt within his heart.
As the two kissed once again, they let themselves fall into dirty pleasure.
---
Riser looked at the purple sky and felt he had gotten used to life in the Underworld.
Frankly, compared to the human world, he suddenly felt the Underworld was much more comfortable, especially when he hardly met trouble.
As for Tannin?
This trouble was just a small trouble for him.
After all, Tannin was just a single individual, and he was different from Kokabiel, Vali, and Azazel, who had the backing of entire fallen angels behind them.
Still, Vali's future was probably bad due to his background, which wasn't even a full fallen angel and killed Kokabiel.
However, this was a good thing for Riser as he had thought of Vali as his enemy.
Nevertheless, killing Vali might be difficult, especially after Sirzech had stopped him previously, but Riser felt that he shouldn't give up and he should grasp Vali's weakness so that this little White Dragon Emperor wouldn't dare to mess up with him anymore.
Still, he was glad that he slept with Misla.
While his phrasing was quite wrong, he had calmed himself.
He had returned to his previous self, who could calmly face all the troubles instead of moving based on his emotions.
Even if Ravel tried to seduce him again, he felt that he could face her calmly.
Yet—
He looked at his little Riser and sighed.
'The charm of twin-tails is dangerous.'
[Congratulations, you have received "Animal Affinity."]
"Hmm?"
As he folded his arms, he tilted his head, feeling confused by his reward.
Naturally, as he had slept with Misla, he got a reward, yet what was this reward?
He knew that Misla was from the Valupa Clan, whose power was to tame a lion.
Was it due to the fact that he got this reward?
Animal Affinity.
Was he going to become a tamer?
Still, this reward wouldn't help much in the battle, so he might as well ignore it.
Nevertheless, Riser was confused, but then, he wondered why the system hadn't said anything.
—or rather, it had been a while for him to hear the system to talk to him.
[Do you want me to dictate your activities at every moment?]
Of course not.
If the system did that, what was the difference between him and a doll?
[While I can't say that you are already a perfect villain, you have already walked into this path.]
[There isn't much that I can do to help you except for making you stronger.]
[So, just believe in your path.]
[I will be your greatest support.]
"....."
'Thanks.'
While the system was abominable, there was no doubt it was his greatest support.
While Ravel and Misla could support his emotions, the system could support him to become stronger, facing all of his enemies.
Without saying anything or asking anything in return, the system helped him wholeheartedly.
Riser suddenly felt that the system was his buddy.
[Just a mere dumb, big lizard dare to provoke me?]
[Show the dragons who are the apex predator.]
[Show everyone who is going to stand above all of them.]
[The rewards depend on what you are doing to do.]
The sudden quest stopped his steps, but then, what was this quest?
Nevertheless, Riser thought that the system would give him a direct reward, like how it did when he faced Kokabiel, Vali, and Azazel.
However, at the same time, he also knew the meaning of this "Rating Game" wasn't just to beat up Tannin. Instead, it was a place for him to show his potential and might to everyone.
When everyone thought of him as a young devil who knew nothing about his place, he should slap them, telling them that they were the ones who should know their place.
This "Rating Game" was his stage to show the new leader of the Underworld.
With that determination, he returned to his villa, but then, he happened to see a familiar twin-tail hairstyle.
"Onii-sama."
Ravel was there, greeting him with a gentle yet mischievous smile.
"....."
Riser took a deep breath.
It was said that taking a break was important.
Nevertheless, there was no fear in his heart anymore.
Riser also smiled and took a step forward, ready to teach his little sister not to mess up with him.
