Hearing the protagonist's inner voice
Riser woke up from a deep sleep, opened his eyes and looked at the ceiling above.
Suddenly, he felt something and looked out the window.
"This feeling..."
Riser stood up and patted Grayfia next to him.
After waking her up, he got up and got out of bed, took a shower, then walked out of the bedroom and went to the living room outside.
"Young master, would you like to eat a sandwich?"
Akeno who had just come out of the kitchen saw Riser coming, smiled and handed him a freshly made sandwich in her hand, and asked if he wanted to eat.
"OK."
Riser grabbed half and took a bite, then left, ignoring the flirtatious glances from Akeno.
Last night was the best bath of his life. Thanks to Akeno, it would be a lie if he didn't want to do it again.
Well he could ask for the back rub service again next time.
Go outside, feel the morning sun and look at the sky.
Right now, the sky is blue and cloudless.
It's a good day.
"What's wrong?"
Grayfia who had just come down from the second floor walked to Riser's side suspiciously and asked.
Her expression was a gentle smile that most people would be mesmerized by when they saw it.
Riser was used to seeing her beautiful smile, he immediately replied.
"It's fine, just a little uneasy, I always feel that something is going to happen."
[Of course something will happen, after all Issei started moving again and as usual I have to work to disrupt his plans.]
[The two gods of war who were just arrested by the police last night should also be released from prison soon by Issei, with the help of his connections of course.]
[Honestly, what's the point of the police in this country? It's useful for catching bad guys, but for Issei and his people, the police aren't very useful because they really can't punish him properly.]
[At most it was only a few days of jail time before someone called the police board to release Issei or his people.]
[If it wasn't for being in a public place, yesterday I should have actually cut down those two gods of war. Dragged them into the forest and they will never come back.]
[It's a pity...but for the sake of plot and entertainment, it might be worthwhile to let those two war gods have a few more scenes.]
Riser complained, slightly regretting not cutting the protagonist's grass properly, but that didn't really matter either.
Everything was under his control anyway, so it was fine to let the protagonist fly a little and he would knock him down again before he made it.
The higher the protagonist flew, the beautiful it was when he fell, his mentality was bound to explode.
When that happens, it's the villain who will laugh happily in the end.
Grayfia rolled her eyes, obviously you know Issei is planning to rise, but still pretending to be confused.
By the way she was actually still sleepy at this time. Obviously it was not because of the fan service she watched with Ophis and Latia last night, but because the man beside her was excited after being stimulated by someone (Akeno) and took it out on her.
On the other hand, Ophis and Latia were doing their job well as maids.
But their gazes often fell on Akeno, glancing at her a few times, before blushing and pretending not to know.
"You two, what's wrong? Is there something on my face?"
Akeno asked in confusion, obviously she had looked in the mirror this morning, and it was still beautiful as ever.
"There's nothing wrong. You're still your usual self, Akeno." Latia replied lightly before going to the other side so that her blushing face would not be seen by others.
At the sight of Akeno, she could not help but remember what she had watched last night.
Ophis was the same, he was staring at Akeno, or rather staring at her breasts that were bigger than her with envy.
"It must be nice to be able to rub people's backs using those... "
"Ara? What are you saying, Ophis?"
Ophis didn't answer, after finishing her work, she immediately took the papaya juice in the refrigerator and watched TV in the living room.
Akeno's lips twitched, something was wrong with these people.
There was no way those two people saw what she did with Riser last night, right?
If someone else had seen her at that time, she would have been extremely embarrassed.
But she clearly remembered locking the bathroom door last night, so no one should have seen.
Thinking of this, Akeno smiled in relief.
Too bad, she didn't know that what she did with Riser last night was being watched via live broadcast by the three women in Villa No.1.
Not only her, even Riser didn't know!
...
It only took half an hour after the call, and Issei managed to persuade the person behind the phone to help him free his two subordinates.
Now he had taken Silver Wolf and Scorpion out of the police station, carrying them into the car.
After getting into the car, Issei just sat quietly and did not speak.
Silver Wolf and Scorpion looked at each other, knowing that Dragon King must be angry at this moment.
"Sorry boss! We failed to complete the mission you gave us. Even though it was just a kidnapping mission, we failed to complete it."
Silver Wolf spoke first, then Scorpion followed suit, but instead of apologizing, he admitted his mistake.
"I failed to complete the mission, you can punish me, boss!"
Seeing his two subordinates like this, Issei nodded in satisfaction, he was actually not really angry at Silver Wolf and Scorpion.
After all, he also knew that if it wasn't for Riser interfering with his plans, Silver Wolf and Scorpion would have been able to kidnap Rias easily.
It's just that I don't know why that Riser always knows my plans, always bothering me as if he had planted flies around me.
Although he suspected that Riser had sent people to watch him or something, upon further inspection, there was no such thing.
He thought it was just a coincidence, or Riser was so careful that he would also keep his fiancé safe.
Issei assured himself, he had a new plan, and this time it had nothing to do with the women around Riser.
So there should be no problem, and this plan was also only known to him and his two war god subordinates.
It should be fine, right?
"That's fine, instead of punishing you guys, I have other things for you to do."
"Tell me what it is, boss! We'll do well this time!"
"Yes! We'll do well. At least if it's not to deal with the person who defeated us yesterday, we can definitely complete the other missions!"
The last one was Scorpion, he actually felt humiliated to be defeated by a rich second generation in a fight.
But he wasn't stupid either, he knew Riser Phenex wasn't an ordinary person after being defeated by him, and he knew his current strength wouldn't be enough to defeat that person if the Dragon King wanted him to deal with him.
Silver Wolf wanted to argue with Scorpion, after all it seemed like they were both afraid of the rich second generation like Riser, but he couldn't say anything about it.
God knows he and Scorpion couldn't even hurt Riser in the slightest, even when they worked together to kill him.
"Don't worry, the plan this time doesn't involve the people around Riser."
"So this time there shouldn't be any Riser appearing out of nowhere."
Issei said this with a confident face, but in truth he lacked confidence, or rather he was annoyed.
He was upset as to why he felt like a coward avoiding Riser?
It's just Riser why are you so scared?
He's the Dragon King himself!
It's not that he's a coward, it's just that he wants to avoid Riser ruining his plans again.
Yes, it's definitely not that he's afraid of Riser.
After he managed to thrive in Kuoh, he could definitely stomp Riser and his family under his feet.
And then he will also steal all the women around him!
After explaining his plan to Silver Wolf and Scorpion, he divided the tasks between the two of them. Scorpion would look for more information on companies suitable for him to acquire, while Silver Wolf would accompany him to go to some of the companies he had decided to acquire first.
{Now that Dragon King also has a lot of funds, it is time to start the acquisition plan in Kuoh, gradually eat away at Kuoh's business circle, and control the entire economic lifeline of Kuoh!}
{Riser, wait for Dragon King to kill you! Your wealth, women, and everything you own will definitely fall into Dragon King's hands in the end!}
{Rias, you traitor, I will definitely tell you that choosing Riser was a wrong choice. You will regret it!}
{Buy the Treasure Pavilion first, I saw a lot of good things in it last time.}
Issei's inner voice suddenly sounded, Riser smiled faintly, and now he knew where he was going to attack.
Almost as he expected, it was a crazy acquisition plan.
As the protagonist, how is it possible to set up a company in Kuoh and develop slowly?
In terms of funds, surely a crude acquisition was the most suitable.
Acquire a large number of companies and integrate them together to form a huge super group involving many industries!
"Go to the Treasure Pavilion."
Riser indifferently drove the car all the way, and quickly rushed to the Treasure Pavilion.
In the car, Riser directly called Lord Bael.
Lord Bael is also the owner of the Treasure Pavilion, the head of the Bael family!
In Kuoh, it was also a dignified duty. That branch of the Treasure Pavilion was also opened almost all over the country and had a very good reputation.
Lord Bael, who received a call from Riser, was a little confused.
This was the first time he had received a call from the heir of Phenex, not knowing why he was suddenly called, but whatever it was he naturally had to answer his phone to give the other party a little face.
And actually this was also a good opportunity. After all who knew the Phenex heir might have something good for his family?
The other party was the heir of a large family, so he also had a desire to hug the other party's thighs.
Even so, he also didn't want to be too sycophantic, as the head of the Bael family, he also wanted to maintain a little dignity when talking to the heir of Phenex.
So he answered the phone in a serious tone, but at the same time also went straight to the point.
"Young Master Riser, what are your orders?"
Lord Bael asked carefully, and even signaled the people around him to be quiet.
Currently, he was in the Treasure Pavilion, with two sons and more than a dozen grandchildren by his side.
Every month, there would be several large-scale sale activities of various treasures in the Treasure Pavilion. The Treasure Pavilion would produce a large number of unique items, and some high-quality items.
Basically, those who participate in this event will not lose money, and some can even make a fortune with blood.
Today was a sales event, so everyone from the Bael family was present.
"Are you at the Treasure Pavilion?"
"Yes."
"Well, wait there, I'll talk to you about the acquisition."
Riser said with a smile, then hung up.
Lord Bael over there really looked stupid.
Acquisition?
You mean buy?
What does the heir to Phenex want to do to get his hands on the Treasure Pavilion?
This is crazy!
Could it be that he had provoked the Phenex heir without him realizing it?
Damn it!
Lord Bael's face was pale, and even his body was trembling.
"Father, what did the Phenex heir say?"
Marcus Bael hurriedly asked, the father's situation seemed to be very wrong, did the heir of Phenex say something bad?
Lord Bael was in a trance, turned his head and said indifferently, "Young Master Riser, he wants to buy, buy the Treasure Pavilion."
After saying that, everyone in the Bael family present remained in place.
After a while, Marcus said angrily: "What? That rich second generation wants to buy our Treasure Pavilion? I disagree, I definitely disagree!"
The Treasure Pavilion is the lifeblood of their Bael family. The Bael family, which was a great promise, rose from the Treasure Pavilion. It was their signboard and the foundation of their lives.
If they were acquired, what else did they have?
What was the point of having money?
Because of the Treasure Pavilion, they cast a net across the country and managed to build a huge network of relationships.
If the Treasure Pavilion was sold, those relationships would collapse in an instant, and it would be impossible for the Bael family to stand up again in the future, and it would be impossible for them to have the status they had today.
As the eldest son, Marcus quickly calmed down and asked, "Have the people of our family ever offended the heir of Phenex? Did Young Master Riser take revenge on us?"
"It's definitely revenge, except for the incompetent rich second generation..."
"Enough!"
Lord Bael shouted coldly at one of his grandchildren who interrupted, what was the point of scolding incompetents?
The most urgent task was to find the cause to solve the problem.
Marcus' son Magdaran Bael suddenly remembered something and sighed: "Maybe it really was because of that incident, but I've already apologized along with everyone who mocked him back then."
Thinking of Riser's dominance to make people kneel at Rias' birthday party, he still had lingering fears.
It was definitely not the incompetent second generation that the rumors said. Rather, the other party was very capable and knew how to use its own advantages.
What's more, in a few moves, you can continuously strengthen your advantage, and use this as a weapon to penetrate your defense.
He had seen all kinds of people and many outstanding young people, but Riser gave him the most terrifying feeling.
He had a maturity completely incompatible with his age, was experienced in handling things, and started out decisively.
Not even afraid to slap Diodora Astaroth and make the Astaroth family behind her do nothing to take revenge in a mysterious way.
Marcus had heard what happened at Rias Gremory's birthday party, he knew his son was one of the people Riser had made kneel that time.
He frowned and said, "I always thought it was impossible, Young Master Riser shouldn't hold a grudge about what happened last time. If you hold a grudge, you can buy the Treasure Pavilion on the spot, and even let the entire Kuoh businessman target the Treasure Pavilion. and say it at that time. Maybe we should take the initiative to dedicate the Treasure Pavilion!"
"Maybe there are other reasons, why don't we wait until Young Master Riser comes and asks?"
Lord Bael's eyes lit up, yes, there must be another reason!
Otherwise, as one of his sons said, why would Riser only talk about the acquisition now?
If Riser wanted to deal with his Treasure Pavilion, he only needed to mobilize other businessmen in Kuoh on behalf of the Phenex Group, then he could boycott his Treasure Pavilion.
Once boycotted it was basically difficult to refund the Treasure Pavilion, and eventually it had to be offered to another party.
Because if they didn't give up, they would be burdened with unimaginable debts!
"Besides if Young Master Riser really wants to acquire the Treasure Pavilion, we actually have no choice."
Marcus said with a wry smile, the younger generation was also completely stunned, and basically had no reaction.
After waiting for about half an hour, Riser finally came to the Treasure Pavilion and saw Lord Bael, one of his sons, and a group of other younger generations.
As soon as he entered, the younger generation bowed their heads one after another.
Bow to your superiors and ask for familiarity! Ask for goodwill!
"Young Master Riser!"
"Young Master Riser!"
"I've seen Young Master Riser!"
The name Riser was very popular in Kuoh, especially after Rias's birthday party and 50% ownership of Lucifad, it was even more popular.
The Astaroth family, which is also one of the top giants in Japan, was silenced by him from taking revenge for slapping and humiliating their family heir.
Now the Astaroth family was just silent and pretended not to know. They had not come to provoke him or his family, but Diodora definitely still had hatred for him, it was probably only a matter of time before he tried something.
Lord Bael stood up to greet him and said with a wry smile, "Young Master Riser, why do you want to buy my Treasure Pavilion when you are so kind? My family shouldn't have offended you since last time, right?"

Author note
I just wanted to say that May 14th, at 00:00. Check my profile and you'll find the Marvel fanfic I just released there. You can throw stones at my new book. This book is starting to lose supporters and the frequency of updates will probably be slow. Sorry about that, but authors like me have a tendency to get bored quickly when the number of my stone throwers decreases. Motivation is important for dog authors like me, without enough motivation, I'm not excited to write.
By the way, this book is not being dropped. It's just that I'm going to focus on updating the Marvel fanfic. People on patreon like it, so I'm prioritizing Marvel first.
Creation is actually quite easy, I just need motivation and ideas to do it. I would appreciate it if you guys support me by making reviews, throwing power stones or joining my pâtreon.
You can get the 5 latest chapters faster on my pâtreon and access other novels I've created.
