Riser Phenex isn't a villain

Chapter 83: Like a moth

"...you live in the shrine?"

Riser looked at Akeno speechlessly since, as a devil, wasn't it weird of her to live in the shrine?

"Are you scared, Riser-sama?" Akeno smiled.

Riser rolled his eyes; why would she love to make such a cheap provocation?

"I do."

"Why?"

"I am scared that you might attack me."

Akeno pouted when she was being teased.

Facing a virgin, she might be able to win, especially Issei, who would get nosebleed every time she said something in a sweet voice, but no matter how good she teased a virgin, the fact she was still inexperienced and a virgin didn't change.

Facing an experienced man like him, she could only submit.

"By the way, are you living alone or with someone?"

"No, I am living alone." She smiled once again when he asked this question.

"The others are the same?"

"Yes." Akeno nodded. "Everyone lives in a different place, except for Asia, who lives with Issei. Aren't you the same?"

"Well, Sona's peerage members don't live in the same place as her."

However, he knew that this wasn't the one she asked about, but there was no way he would explain his life with his peerage.

Fortunately, Akeno didn't press him even further since they had arrived at her living place.

If others might have an apartment, house, or even a mansion to live in, then Akeno's place was a little different since she used an old shrine as a living place.

According to the architecture and the entire layout of this place, it should be a Shinto Shrine, which was the most popular religion in this country.

Though he had to say, it felt a little prickly when he entered this place as it was a place dedicated to praying to the Shinto Gods.

Nevertheless, it might be because Akeno was a devil that there was no presence of the gods, so even if this place might seem like a Shinto shrine, it was nothing but a building.

Yet, it didn't change the fact that he might need preparation to get comfortable with the feeling of entering this place.

"Please come in, Riser-sama."

As the owner, after Akeno opened the lock, she guided him to enter her house.

"Then, excuse me."

"Fufufui..."

"...why did you suddenly laugh?"

"Nothing." Akeno smiled. "It was just you were the first guy who entered my house."

"...I am not sure how to react to that."

If he was single, then he would be pleased, but he was a married man, okay?

Could he say that he was happy?

Then, where was the face of his wife?

"But... am I really the first one? Don't you have one or two boyfriends, Akeno Himejima?"

"...what do you mean one or two boyfriends?" Akeno was speechless, then said with a solemn attitude. "Riser-sama, I am a virgin."

"Oh-oh... you don't have to emphasize that part so much."

"But I don't want you to mistake me as a slutty."

Even though Akeno knew her fetish was immoral, it didn't mean she indulged in it. Instead, she was pure as she was still dreaming about a romantic encounter between two people.

When her relationship with her lover was threatened, they could go even deeper, such as knowing who would be in the position of sadism or masochism between them.

"I have never thought of you as slutty. I know that you are a kind girl. If not, then you won't try to smooth up my relationship with your colleague, right?"

When Riser mentioned her colleague, which was Issei, without a doubt, Akeno couldn't help but feel a little helpless. She tried to smooth out and make Issei appear acceptable on Riser.

Frankly, as long as Riser didn't actively provoke Issei, then everything was okay, but the reality?

It was Issei who provoked Riser.

Fortunately, Rias was able to handle the situation well, or else they wouldn't be able to talk like this.

Still, there was one mistake that he had made, and that was the fact that she wasn't a good woman at all.

She was a horrible woman who felt attracted to having a forbidden relationship with the former fiance of her master and also the husband of the best friend of her master.

Having such a thought on such an immoral act, could she still be called a good girl?

"By the way, what are you going to make?"

"Do you have any requests, Riser-sama? If it's Japanese food, I can do it all, but if it's a cuisine from other countries, it might be a little difficult, but I can try."

There was internet, so it should be easy to get the receipt, and as long as there was a receipt, everything was okay.

As for the ingredients?

If she didn't have any, she would go to the nearby supermarket and use hypnosis.

It might have been in the middle of the night, but it was still around eight, so there was still a lot of time.

"Japanese food? I am not familiar with it, but is there something easy to eat?"

"Easy to eat? Hmm..." Akeno tapped her chin for a moment. "How about udon?"

"Udon? Isn't it difficult to make?"

"I have prepared the broth and noodles, but if you think that it is too simple, I can crack you an egg on the top."

"Then, that's it."

"Okay, wait for a moment. You should wait in the living room, Riser-sama. You can think of this as your home."

"....."

Riser wondered whether it was his imagination that when Akeno said, "You can think of this as your home," it sounded quite weird for some reason.

[It's good that you bought a condom at the convenience store earlier. You can use it well tonight.]

"....."

It was true that he brought a condom, but he didn't mean to use it on Akeno, okay?

However, he had to say it was a little hard to erase his habit as a human,

Frankly, as a devil, he knew that his fertility was a little hard to say, but with his "Sex Mastery," he could make as many children as he wanted to. Yet, he didn't do so since he wasn't ready for children. Moreover, he had never used a condom when he did it with Sona and his peerage members, but then again, probably the words that came out from Nurarihyon made him need to prepare himself.

After all, in case he was attacked by an aggressive female youkai, he didn't have the confidence to reject it.

However, whether they were healthy or not was questionable.

Even though he had a "Healthy Body," which made him immune to any diseases, including STDs, he just couldn't help buy a condom, okay?

Moreover, he didn't want a random youkai to have his first children, especially when his wife hadn't gotten pregnant.

Still, when he was in the living room, he couldn't help but notice Akeno, who was in the kitchen, wearing an apron, tied her hair in a long ponytail that showed her graceful neck, and cooked dinner for him like a virtuous wife.

When she stretched her hand up to reach for the condiments or bent down to reach a cooking tool, her breasts seemed to follow the movement of her body. They were wonderful, but at the same time, they were also heavy, which made him quite cornered.

"Do you need me to help you, Akeno Himejima?"

Riser thought that he needed to help her.

"It's okay, Riser-sama. What would someone say if I had my guest to help me with this small thing?"

If Akeno said that she would be troubled due to his status, then he would help since, as someone with a high status, who cares about the words of others?

However, she told him that it was hospitality and was also probably her education from childhood.

Moreover, probably, she also had gotten used to a hard life.

Did he feel sorry?

Well, he did since he felt that she was in the same situation as him, who had become nothing but a piece on the top of the chess board.

However, he was lucky that his family was a great family, and he also had the help of his sister-in-law, so everything was okay, but Akeno?

As long as Rias ordered something, there was nothing that Akeno could do unless Akeno's parents might be someone important or powerful, but who would become a devil when one had a complete family?

Becoming a reincarnated devil wasn't an easy choice as one's life would change, but then again, being a devil also gave one an opportunity.

"By the way, Riser-sama, can I have a request?"

"Request?"

"It is only a small request, though."

"What's wrong?"

"Can-Can you just call me Akeno? I-I mean when we're alone like this."

If Riser called her by her given name when Rias was present, Akeno was sure that her master would glare at her.

"Okay, Akeno."

"....."

"Thank you, Riser-sama~!"

"..."

Riser, who was about to reach the remote for television, then noticed Akeno's ponytail that moved like the tail of the happy puppy.

"..."

Was it something so special to be called by the given name?

Riser thought that he might need to learn about this country well.

As she heard the sound of the television, Akeno turned and looked at Riser, who made himself so comfortable as if he was really at home. Watching him was enough to put her with a smile since she thought that having someone by her side was really nice.

Still, as he heard him call her given name, she was afraid that she might plunge into the fire like a moth that was unafraid of the fire.
