Riser Phenex isn't a villain

Chapter 277: Lake



Chapter 277: Lake

The next day, Sona and a few of her group joined Riser's trip to the Fukushima prefecture, enjoying the fall weather in the northern part of this country.

"The fall is like you, Dear."

"Why so?"

Riser looked at Sona curiously, wondering why this woman had become poetic all of a sudden.

"The leaf becomes blazing red like your color." Sona showed a gentle expression as she leaned on his shoulder. "I like it."

"I like it too."

"Right?"

All the unpleasantness that he felt yesterday was no longer there and disappeared as if it never existed. Still, his days didn't change as he enjoyed his life and became stronger, especially after taking down two powerful gods in the Norse Myth. Naturally, with those feats, he was given two rewards.

[Congratulations, you have received "Magu Magu no Mi" (Complete Version) and "Sube Sube no Mi" (Complete Version).]

Naturally, he had eaten the two Devil Fruits, which gave him two new abilities.

However, whether he became stronger or not, he wasn't really sure since when he reached this stage, it was hard to see the improvement in his strength, but there was no doubt that his ability to survive became stronger due to those two Devil Fruits.

The first Devil Fruit he gained, especially after killing Odin, he got "Magu Magu no Mi," and the moment he ate it, he became a magma devil and had the ability to turn into a magma and manipulate magma.

Previously, it wasn't that he couldn't control magma, but it was complicated as magma was different from a flame.

Magma is a combination of soil and flame.

While being a Phenex gave him the ability to manipulate flame, he couldn't manipulate soil. Yet, it didn't mean that it was impossible; it was only quite complicated. The moment he gained this Devil Fruit, manipulating magma was as easy as walking into the park.

Still, with this ability, it was easier for him to destroy the Earth as he could move the core of the Earth, causing a mass volcanic explosion. More importantly, due to his first reward, "Flame Manipulation Mastery," it was easier for him to master this power.

Nevertheless, even without this power, he believed that he would destroy the world.

However, compared to his first reward, his second reward was something that attracted him the most.

This was also the reward he gained after he killed Loki, the Evil God who planned to hold Ragnarok. Naturally, before he killed Odin, he killed Loki first, finding him by using "Location," and by then, it was easier for him to throw all the blame on Loki.

As for the aftermath of that incident, he decided not to think about that matter and focused on his second reward.

Sube Sube no Mi.

As he had eaten this Devil Fruit, it made him into a slip man.

All the things that touched and attacked him would slip off, and none of them would affect him.

The only unfortunate thing was that he couldn't use this power to slip off from this responsibility.

However, there was no doubt with this ability, he became invincible in close combat, as all of the close combat attacks would just slip off when they touched his body.

Even better, his appearance became better due to this Devil Fruit since after eating this Devil Fruit, his appearance became fairer. However, as his basic was good, the improvement wasn't that much.

"What is it?"

"You became more handsome somehow."

"Really?"

"Yes."

Riser smiled due to Sona's praise, but he also said, "Aren't you the same? Didn't you use your ability to make yourself more beautiful?"

"Well..." Sona blushed and then snuggled on his chest. "It's all because of you." After her training with Riser, her head was finally opened, and the limit which she had put on her brain before was no longer there. By using her "Water Manipulation" power, she made her appearance better by soothing and moisturizing her skin, keeping it in a perfect state all the time.

There was no doubt when anyone knew about Sona's ability, they would be jealous to death.

For women, becoming more beautiful was their number one goal.

"However, why did you choose Lake Akimoto as a place for a holiday?"

The two of them were on a ship they rented from a nearby stall as they sailed on Lake Akimoto, enjoying the scenery in the surroundings. Moreover, with Sona's power, there was no need for them to row with paddles, as Sona could manipulate the water to move the ship automatically based on her wish.

"You don't like it?"

"No, it's okay, but most people will choose Kyoto or the central area, right?"

"It's troublesome to go to the center of Japan now."

"Is it the Five Principal Clans?"

"You know?"

"Well, Onee-sama sometimes told me that those groups of humans are troublesome." Sona then asked worriedly. "Will they trouble you?"

"There is no need to worry about a group of humans who aren't even the holder of Longinus."

The Five Principal Clans were good and all, but their limit was only that. Their strongest was nothing compared to his might. This wasn't arrogant, but the reality was like this. Still, he felt that he might as well have taken all the sacred beasts of the Five Principal Clans so they wouldn't be noisy again.

'Well, let's do it when everything is over.'

The danger was right in front of him, but even so, he believed he could win.

"More importantly, is there something happening on the Kuoh lately?"

"Something?" Sona tapped her chin for a moment and said, "I am not sure whether this is something huge or not, but Diodora Astaroth has often visited Kuoh town lately."

"Diodora? You mean the heir of the Astaroth?"

Riser showed a surprise as if he didn't know anything.

"Yes." Sona nodded. "It seems he is interested in Asia on Rias' peerage."

"Ah, that girl, huh?"

"Unlike you, he seems to love a pure maiden who is related to a church."

"Sick hobby." Riser showed disgust, but he noticed his wife was staring at him. "What is it?"

"Don't you think those pure maidens that are related to church are cute?"

"They are cute."

"Then..."

"But my wife is the cutest."

Riser smiled as he hugged his wife tightly in his arms.

"...."

"Come on! Say something! Don't keep staring at me like that in silence."

Sona only rolled her eyes. If he could control his desire and only loved her alone, he might believe his words, but how many women did this guy have?

Nevertheless, it didn't change the fact that she loved him.

"Are you going to help, Rias?"

"Why should I?"

"I thought that you wanted to make all the girls on Rias' peerage to be part of your harem."

"..."

Was that something that you should say as my wife?

Riser thought that he might need to teach this bitch tonight.

Or should he do it now?

After all, it would be his first time to do it on the top of a ship and in the middle of the lake.

"Wa-Wait..."

"No." Riser refused, but he knew he needed to make a solution for his wife's worry. "But if you are worried, how about you make a mist around us?"

"...."

As she was unable to stop her husband, Sona followed his advice by creating a mist around them so no one would be able to see what they were about to do.

Only during their moment did the sound of her gasp and moan become a new legend that made this lake a popular tourist spot in the future.

Still, the happy days soon ended, and it was time for him to go back, but when he was about to go back to the Underworld, he happened to meet Diodora Astaroth.

"Good day, Riser-sama. It's really my good luck to be able to meet you here."

Diodora showed a happy smile when he met Riser.

"....."

Watching this smile, Riser wondered whether it was okay for him to beat this guy up.
