Riser Phenex isn't a villain

Chapter 307: Protagonist from now on!

"How is it? Did you enjoy my husband well?"

"He is good."

"..."

Riser tried to ignore the conversation between Sona and Rias, but he couldn't since they were just too insolent!

Still, they couldn't blame them since he knew that it was also his fault to move based on his lust.

However, even though it was a mixed trip with the group of both Rias and Sona, everyone familiarized themselves with each other, and their relationship was quite warm. The Gremory group might have lost against the Sitri group, but there was no anger or hate as the master of the Gremory group, Rias Gremory, had become Riser's woman.

Frankly, staying with Riser made Kiba and Gasper feel nervous, especially when they knew how powerful and brutal he was, yet somehow, that image changed, especially when Issei wasn't by their sides. Instead, they felt like they were full of respect for him and felt that he was someone worthy to follow.

Asia also felt the same, especially when Riser was the one who helped her to change Rias' decision to erase the Hyoudo couple's memory. Even though the memory of Issei was erased, as long as she could become their child, she knew that everything would be okay as she wished to repay them for what Issei and they had done to her.

Nevertheless, because of this, her image of him changed, and she wondered who the real him was.

"Rias, has your older sister been found?"

"Not yet." Rias sighed helplessly. "I wonder where she is." Her feelings towards Grayfia are quite complex now as she was glad that Grayfia had stopped her from doing something stupid in the past, and at the same time, she also wondered why Grayfia never did anything when the crisis happened in the Gremory domain.

Without Sirzech, Grayfia was the strongest, and her existence was necessary to protect the Gremory House.

If Grayfia existed, would the Gremory House have been humiliated before?

No way!

It was because Grayfia disappeared as if she had died that no one put the Gremory House into their eyes.

As the strongest queen, Grayfia's power was absolute. She gained the Ultimate Devil in the rankings and had challenged Serafall's position as Leviathan in the past.

To achieve all of those things, Grayfia's power was undoubted.

Yet, she disappeared and even ignored her son.

While there was no doubt Grayfia was powerful, she definitely wasn't a good mother from her actions when facing what had happened.

"If you find her, please tell me, okay?"

Rias knew that Riser had a wide connection with a variety of beings in the supernatural world, especially due to his commercial activities, so if possible, she wished for him to use that connection to find her older sister.

"I will."

Riser also wished to meet Grayfia, but his purpose was pure. First, he wanted to help Rias since he knew that the existence of the strong was needed if Rias's family wanted to grow. While he was there by Rias' side, it wouldn't hurt to have a more powerful individual, right?

Moreover, he felt that it was dangerous for such a beautiful woman to stay alone in the world.

Along with her sensitive and depressed mentality after a tragedy, wasn't it normal for him to worry about her?

"By the way, dear. Why did you decide to visit the human world?" Sona asked. She knew how lazy her husband was. If he could stay in the Underworld, he would stay there. If he didn't have to work, he would stay inside the room. If he didn't need to walk, he would lay. If he didn't need to wake up, then he would sleep.

Anyway, frankly, if he wasn't so attractive, there was no need to worry about him.

Moreover, she had to say those who provoked him were stupid since she knew if no one troubled him, nothing would happen. Yet, some were just stupid, and their heads were just working differently.

"I am going to rest. I don't want to work."

"..." Everyone.

Hearing such words from Lucifer, they didn't know what to say.

"Then, you don't need to. Just rest by my side." Rias hugged him gently and pampered him.

"....." Riser.

"I was joking. I thought I would check my business in the human world. What's with those eyes? I am serious."

Sona sighed helplessly, then asked, "Are you going there alone with Rossweisse?"

"That's the plan."

Rossweisse, who never said anything and stayed on the side, nodded with a smile.

"You should take more people with you so they can take care of you."

Like a motherwho couldn't bear to see her baby stay alone, she thought of sending a babysitter.

"...."

Riser wondered whether his image was really that bad.

However, Rossweisse felt that she was good enough, but when she wanted to voice her dedication—

"Me! Me! Me!" Xenovia raised her hand high. "I will go!"

Sona stared at Xenovia helplessly since somehow she felt like Xenovia would cause trouble instead of helping Riser. "Okay, then. Go."

"Yahoo~!"

"..." Rossweisse.

"Um... can I go too?" Irina raised her hand timidly, yet it couldn't be helped, right? After all, she was the only angel among this group of devils. Even though her friend was around, she was still nervous, especially when Michael told her to help Riser as long as she could.

Irina didn't think too much at that time, and she also felt that it might be fun to follow Riser, especially when she knew the angel needed to learn more about this strongest Lucifer.

"Okay." Sona nodded and agreed.

"Let's have fun together, Irina~!" Xenovia hugged Irina tightly and whispered softly, "We will teach you."

"Wh-What do you mean?!"

As Xenovia and Irina interacted, Asia suddenly raised her hand. "Um, can I go too?"

"...."

This time, everyone was dumbfounded since Asia was the closest girl to Issei, and her feelings toward Riser should be complex, especially when Riser had done many things to Issei, yet Asia wished to follow Riser.

"Are you sure, Asia?" Rias asked as her brow rose, wondering what Asia was planning to do. If Asia planned to do something bad, even if she thought it was impossible for Asia to do so, she might as well stop her.

"I-I want to learn more about Riser-sama..." Asia said softly with a gentle smile.

"...." Everyone.

Gasper and Kiba looked at each other before they shook their heads and sighed, but what could they do? It was Asia's wish, and they didn't have a right to stop her.Moreover, they knew with the current situation of the Gremory House, having Riser as a friend was far more beneficial. Moreover, they also knew that Riser wasn't a decent guy, especially when they saw his sacrifice to save the Underworld up close before. Lastly, it was far better than having Asia fall deeply into sadness.

"....." Rossweisse.

Nevertheless, with everything decided, Rossweisse, Xenovia, Irina, and Asia would follow him on this trip.

Oh, there was also Ophis.

Koneko stared at Ophis, who sat on Riser's lap naturally resentfully, but with her power, what could she do?

"Dear, can I ask you something?"

"...what's wrong?"

Looking at his wife, who started to act coquettishly, Riser was speechless, but he had to say she was cute.

"Sure."
