Riser Phenex isn't a villain

Chapter 5: Good job

Once again, complete knowledge suddenly entered his mind. It didn't feel uncomfortable. Instead, it felt nice since he could somehow feel stronger.

Even if what he got was a strange reward.

"Wait for me here."

He patted Rias's buttocks gently after he kissed her before he walked away.

Rias gritted her teeth and stared at him annoyedly. However, she didn't push him, or rather, when she was about to push him, he only gave her a short kiss, so to all the people present, she didn't seem to reject him and accepted the kiss.

"BASTARD—!"

However, Issei stopped his lips once again when he met Riser's cold eyes.

"Listen to me, Sekiryuutei. You might be a peerage member of my fiancee, but you have decided to challenge me, so don't expect me to be merciful."

As he moved closer, Issei backed down before his butts fell to the ground.

"You know what my family's special ability is, right? Immortality. Moreover, it can also be used to heal. Maybe, in the match, I will break your bones, then heal it. Break it. Heal it. I will keep doing it until you break and wish to die."

His voice was so cold, like he was really about to do it, giving a shiver to all the people who heard it.

"But I was kidding."

"....."

He walked past Issei, who was staring at him in disbelief and shaking in fear before he said calmly, "I will give you a chance to show all of your power, so don't bring shame to your master, and bring a good match to Sirzech-sama, who wishes to watch such a match between a dragon and a phoenix during this important event, okay?"

"...." Sirzech felt like he was stabbed by a knife once again.

Riser's words were polite, but they were a sharp knife.

Still, some who heard his words didn't think that he was talking big and cruel. Instead, they thought it was part of the strategy since they could see that Issei was trembling with fear. They shook their heads and felt the victory was already his.

Meanwhile, Issei received encouragement once again.

'Issei-kun, you can't give up! If you give up, then your Buchou will be in his arms, and her virginity will be taken by Riser! Don't doubt it. You can see how violent he was when he stole your beloved Buchou's lips, right? Do you want to see Rias's virginity being taken violently by him?'

"?!"

Issei shuddered violently.

Yes!

He couldn't give up!

He had to defeat this yakitori (Japanese chicken skewer dish)!

He held his left arm and whispered, "Partner, I will leave it to you."

"Yes, use everything you do to show them the power of the dragon! Beat this bastard who is looking down on you!"

"Yes! I will take Buchou too!"

The center of the hall was cleared in a hurry.

The devils in the hall were standing around the space, watching with keen eyes.

Rias's peerage members stayed in the same place as Rias, and Sirzech also sat next to her.

On the other hand, at the house of Phenex, his relatives, parents, families, servants of his family, and his little sister sat there.

Still, instead of Issei, he was more cornered about his family situation, though.

"Okaa-sama, is it only me, or is Riser-oniisama a bit different?"

Riser's little sister, Ravel Phenex, quietly asked her mother.

"Well, that's not the case, right? He is still your older brother, after all."

"But..."

"It's normal, isn't it? After all, who doesn't feel angry for being played like this? Still, it's good that he has become mature."

Hearing her father's words, Ravel also nodded since she had to say, currently, her older brother was cool!

If before, Riser was like a cheap playboy, who was arrogant and unscrupulous, at this moment, he is like an intelligent villain in the novel. It was like... everyone was looking at his enhanced self.

Ravel felt the change in her older brother was good.

"Still, I wonder how this match is going to be."

Without a doubt, they didn't doubt Riser since they knew he was a genius, but his opponent was a Sekiryuutei might be a surprise, so he hoped that Riser wouldn't let his guard down.

---

"Yubelluna, step down."

"Yes, Riser-sama."

Riser looked at the voluptuous woman with long, wavy purple hair that fell all the way down her back and matching eyes. He knew that this woman was his "Queen," and it made him strange somehow. Still, from the memory of the original Riser, he remembered everything, but with the combination of his personality, it was impossible to stop the change.

Moreover, he felt weird when he thought that there were 12 beautiful women who were also his harem members.

"Good luck, Riser-sama."

Yubelluna softly kissed his cheek, causing him to slap her buttocks and tell her to go away. She chuckled happily and walked to a safe distance, watching his match with his other peerage members from the closest distance possible.

How to say... all of them could tell that Riser had changed, yet they had to say this change wasn't that bad, though.

Yet, while he didn't realize it, it was the effect of his "Sex Mastery," as he knew every point of making a woman feel horny toward him. After all, sex isn't all about putting a penis inside a vagina.

This art is deep.

The way he presented himself was also part of this "Sex Mastery."

Meanwhile, Issei was brimming with envy, watching how close Riser was with his harem—he meant his peerage members were, and because of this, he couldn't let him be with Rias since if they were together, he could tell Rias would be sad and he couldn't allow Rias to be sad!

Yet what made him even angrier was how Riser seemed to dismiss him!

He was going to show him!

He was going to break this calm mask of him by defeating him!

Inside the devil's ring, confronting each other at the center of the space, the two of them were ready to fight.

"Please start!"

The devil, who was in charge of the referee, gave a call for the start of the match, and the match started.

Still, while Issei had summoned Booster Gear on his arm, Riser was as calm as ever.

"Buchou. I will finish it in ten seconds!"

Issei suddenly shouted, causing everyone to feel confused.

"...Issei?"

Rias made a doubtful face, but Issei didn't care since he was going to show everyone.

"I am going to crush you down with everything I got! Raiser Phenex! Buchou, allow me to use "Promotion"!"

<Promotion! Queen!>

Issei could feel the power that came within him.

"Buchou!"

He shouted, "I don't have a talent for swords like Kiba! I am not a genius like Akeno-san at using Demonic Power! I don't have a crazy strength like Koneko-chan, not that I have a healing power like Asia! Even still, I will become the "Strongest Pawn!"

He promised Rias!

"For you, I will even beat God! With this, Boosted Gear! My only weapon! I will make sure that I will protect you!"

<Shine! Over Boost!>

<Welsh Dragon Over Booster!>

The jewel on the Boosted Gear released a red light.

The light shone through the entire hall.

A deep crimson cloud aura covered him.

This power...

Your power is overwhelming me...

Then, his body was suddenly equipped with red armor. A plate armor that had a motif of a Dragon.

The jewel that was present on the gauntlet also appeared on both of his arms, shoulders, and the middle of the torso.

On the back, there was something like a rocket booster propulsion.

Yet, despite all of this change, Riser was calm, making Issei uneasy.

"This is the power of the Dragon Emperor! Balance Breaker! Boosted Gear Scale Mail! If you want to stop me, go and ask Maou-sama! After all, I won't forgive you!"

"Don't waste my time. I am getting bored waiting for your transformation. Your ten seconds are going to end, you know?"

"BASTARD!"

Issei raised his hands, bringing them close, and then created a mass of demonic power between his hands before he shot it toward Riser right away.

"Take this!"

An enormous amount of demonic power, so high that it took up about half of the hall, was about to swallow Riser.

Everyone was surprised by this power.

Even Issei, who was shot in the attack, was also surprised.

Yet similar to before, Riser just stood in his place and didn't move, completely dismissing this attack.

"Riser-sama!"

"Onii-sama!"

Everyone was startled and worried, but then...

*BOOOOOOOOM!*

A big explosion happened, and it razed everything to ruin.

Everyone fell in silence and watched this scene in disbelief.

Huh? Is that it?

Issei was confused before he smiled since he thought that he had won this battle, but...

*Clap! Clap! Clap!*

The sound of handclaps echoed through the hall.

When the aftermath of the attack disappeared, Riser still stood in place, completely unscathed from that attack.

"Good attack, but if you want to defeat me, then you need a long way."

"....."

"...no way..."

Issei fell into despair.

Ahem, there is a comment that caught my attention in the previous chapter. It was said that the MC was a doll being dictated by his system.

I think that's a little too much, but I also understand your point since his action was caused by the system, but in this story, it is definitely not all of them.

However, I think that's the point of this story.

Frankly, if I became Riser Phenex, I wouldn't do anything and would just be lazy around, living a good life by spending his time with his harem and his parents' money. After all, Riser didn't lack anything, whether it was money, talent, or women.

Moreover, even if he did nothing, his talent was enough to bring him to become an Ultimate Class devil (even though he might be the weakest).

If there isn't a system, then his story would be spent on indulgence, and as a normal human that is reincarnated into the devil, there is no way for him to wish to do something dangerous, right?

Moreover, the option on the system is like a quest in an RPG game or system on the reincarnation story. He was asked to do something, and then he would get the reward. It was like killing a monster or two and then getting money. The only difference he couldn't refuse. However, this matter will become part of the plot in the future.

Lastly, there is no need to think too much and just enjoy, okay?

If you have something to comment on or input, then just give a comment. I will do my best to answer.
