Chereads / Riser Phenex isn't a villain / Chapter 213 - How unpleasant...

Chapter 213 - How unpleasant...

Not only Riser but Serafall, Falbium, and Ajuka also quickly realized that letting Riser marry many women from various factions seemed the fastest way to gain the peace that Sirzech sought. 

As long as Riser married a woman with a high position on the fallen angel faction and the angel faction, peace would be achieved with Riser at the top. 

Yet, no one said those words as they didn't want Serafall to do something so troublesome. 

Nevertheless, Serafall must have noticed it, but she pretended to be stupid since it was hard for a woman to share her love with another woman. 

Still, as Riser watched the talk between the three, he realized something. Sirzech might be dead, but there was no doubt his dream was inherited by everyone. To achieve peace, even Ajuka seemed to be gentler toward him, which surprised him. 

Even if Ajuka had some biases toward Riser, he didn't think that Riser was unfit as a Lucifer. Instead, he felt that Riser was much more suitable as a Maou instead of him, who had always holed up with his research. 

While no one knew whether Riser's act came from his heart or not, no doubt his speech touched everyone's heart. 

Future. 

This word was unfamiliar to all of them, but this word existed for them, especially after they reached peace with the angel and the fallen angel. 

For Riser, who was able to think of such a speech, there was no doubt no one was more appropriate as a Lucifer than him currently, especially when everyone was still unable to erase their bias toward the angel and fallen angel whom they had fought for so long. 

However, nothing could be done instantly, and everything needed a process. 

At this moment, they discussed how they could make the relationship between the devil, the fallen angel, and the angel become even closer along with the other supernatural societies. Not only their three races but, if possible, they wanted to reach peace with other pantheons as a fight was meaningless for them. 

No, it didn't matter whether it was possible or not. 

They had to do it! 

Nevertheless, Riser fell silent as they watched what they planned to do to warm up the relationship between the three factions. 

"A sports festival, singing contest, is there anything else?" 

"What about a talent contest too?" 

"That's a good idea!" 

"......" 

Riser thought that the meeting would be filled with conspiracy and intrigue as they planned to swallow the angel and the fallen angel, but that didn't seem the case as he could see their pure willingness to achieve peace. 

Yet, Riser felt this method wasn't good. 

The coalition might seem good up front as everyone's position was equal and fair, but there was never fairness, and someone needed to be in the lead position. 

If not, then this coalition would be destroyed sooner or later. 

After all, in the real world, there were many examples, like how two people set up a business together, but the other suddenly betrayed his friend and stole the entire business for themselves. 

The coalition of the angel, devil, and fallen angel was like that. 

Their relationship might have been quite warmed up in the beginning, but as long as there was a conflict, no one wished to lose. 

The fallen angel aside, if a certain group was unable to accept this peace and went to attack the devil or the fallen angel, Riser wasn't surprised if the group wouldn't be killed and only received light punishment for their action even if this group had the intention to kill the devil and the fallen angel. 

However, politics was like this. 

Still, as long as they didn't attack him, Riser didn't care much. 

To be honest, even if the whole world was destroyed, Riser didn't care much as long as they didn't touch him and those he cared about, but he knew the world wouldn't work that way. 

Even if he didn't want to, he knew the best way to achieve peace was to conquer the world. 

As long as he conquered the world, he would achieve peace and security. 

Probably, a few mice might not be able to accept such a peace, but as long as they die, everything will be okay.

"Now, how about we talk about the other pantheons?" Ajuka asked. 

Hearing this, whether Riser, Serafall, or Falbium quickly fixed their sloppy appearance. When they talked about how to smooth up the relationship between the angel, the devil, and the fallen angel, no one seemed serious, but this time, it was different as they needed to face the other pantheons seriously. 

Not all gods that existed in this world were powerful, but those who were powerful had a power that was enough to destroy a country or even a continent. It might not be exaggerated to say that one or two even had the power to destroy the world. 

The previous God of the bible was like that. 

Nevertheless, such an existence also passed away, and even Sirzech, who was known as the most powerful devil, also passed away. 

In other words, nothing was permanent. 

Even the most powerful being would die. 

However, when they died, there was no doubt that they would bring many to destruction, so at this moment, they needed to be careful. 

"I had heard from heaven that the Norse and the Greek seem to have an interest in our alliance." 

"Really?" 

"That's good." 

As expected of heaven, even if God had passed away, their reputation was as great as ever. 

"So, is there a condition for them to become our ally?" Riser asked curiously. 

"They didn't make a confirmation, but they wanted to see us the devil first," Serafall told the news she received from heaven. 

"See us? What do they want to see?" Riser felt weird. 

"Rating Game." 

"Oh." 3x

Falbium, Ajuka, and Riser weren't surprised since the "Rating Game" had become so famous in the Underworld after the birth of the "Evil Pieces." It was something that became the talk of everyone and a source of entertainment. 

Similar to the devil, those gods also had a long age, and it wouldn't be surprising if they were curious about this "Rating Game" due to their boring lives. Still, as the one who watched this "Rating Game" was a famous god from various pantheons, they needed to show an appropriate game instead of a game of a group of weaklings. 

"We'll have the Youth Devil Gathering soon, so we can get them to watch this "Rating Game." 

Riser expressed his idea. 

After all, unlike those good-for-nothings nobles, the Youth Devil Gathering this time would be special as there would be many famous heirs and heiresses from various famous houses. 

"I will prepare the venue. My hotel is finished." 

No one disagreed as Serafall, Falbium, and Ajuka knew well about Riser's architectural talent, and there was no doubt Riser's hotel would be suitable for this event. Riser might have taken the initiative to promote his resort, but it didn't matter as it worked for everyone. 

However—

"Riser-kun, I have a little idea." 

"Idea?" 

"Yes." Ajuka nodded. "What if we set up another "Rating Game" for you, Riser-kun?" 

"Me? Another Rating Game?" Riser didn't narrow his eyes and only looked at Ajuka curiously. 

"Ajuka-chan!" Serafall frowned, but Ajuka was still as calm as ever. "Calm down, Serafall. Let me finish my words first." He then continued to look at Riser and continued with his explanation, "Even though you have shown your might in front of everyone, there must be many who are still in doubt. I won't ask you to fight all of the famous people on the "Rating Game," especially after you defeated Tannin, so how about the Top 3?" 

"Ajuka!" 

"Ajuka-chan!" 

However, Ajuka still ignored Falbium and Serafall. "As long as you defeat the Top 3 in the "Rating Game," I am sure that no one will question your authority anymore. We can also set up a suitable game for those pagan gods to watch over and let them see how powerful our new Lucifer is." 

Riser didn't say anything and looked at Ajuka. He knew that this was inevitable, especially when he was young. Even though his speech moved many, there were still many who doubted him, as it was hard to erase the first impression. 

As long as one's first impression had been set, it would be hard for one to erase it. 

The older one was better than the younger one. 

This was a natural thought for everyone, and many thought that the Top 3 of the "Rating Game" was stronger than him. 

Bedeze Abaddon and Roygun Belphegor aside, as they knew politics well and their power was received from a "King Piece," Diehauser Bellial was different. 

Diehauser was a pure individual, and it was also due to this he was blind to politics. Even if his fans told him that Riser might be weaker than him, he didn't refute it as he thought that he was stronger, and even if he might appear low-key, polite, and humble, it was impossible for him to admit that he was weaker than Riser, especially when he thought that he could be the victory. 

Riser knew that Ajuka pointed out the fact to him. This wasn't a trap, plot, or anything, but the reality that happened before him after he became Lucifer, so he knew that he needed to take the challenge even though he didn't like to appear as a rare animal in the zoo. 

Moreover, someone needed a beating a lot, and he also wanted to break the victory of the champion. 

"Riser-chan..." Serafall looked at Riser worriedly. After all, she couldn't even confidently say that she could defeat Diehauser.

"I could even fight Sirzech. You don't need to worry, Onee-chan." 

Hearing that, everyone fell in silence as they remembered Riser's brutality, but it somehow made Serafall at ease. 

Still, Riser noticed the frown on Ajuka and felt happy. Ajuka might only state the facts, but he didn't like the fact that he was being manipulated to do something. However, he had to be patient since the time hadn't ripened. 

Still, with everything decided, his match with the Top 3 of the Rating Game was going to be set up. 

However, as the meeting was over, Riser heard unpleasant news that caused him to frown.
