Kapitel 243: Wish
"It's training arc~! It's training arc~!"
When the gathering ended, Riser left with everyone, and as expected, Serafall followed.
Yet the sentence that came out of Serafall's mouth stunned everyone.
Still, no one dared to say anything, especially when Serafall was the Leviathan.
Except for Riser, Sona, and Ravel, everyone could only stay in silence. However, facing Serafall's antics, the three of them could only stare at this woman in silence.
No, it could be said that only Sona and Ravel were the ones who could stare at Serafall in silence as Serafall stuck on his back, so Riser couldn't stare at Serafall even if he wanted to.
However, Riser could feel Serafall's healthy breast size, so there was no need to worry, right?
"However, Onee-chan is correct. This month, I will train you and your peerage members, Sona."
"Eh?"
Everyone was surprised by his words.
"But... is it really okay, Dear?"
While Sona wished to be trained by Riser, she wondered whether she would trouble him.
"It's okay. Even if I skip my work for a month, no one will say anything."
"..."
Hearing his brazen words, no one knew what they should say.
"That's great!"
However, Xenovia was happy that she could spend more time with Riser!
"..."
They looked at this idiotic girl. They wanted to say something, but they endured it. After all, even if Xenovia was a little silly, she was still Riser's woman.
Riser rubbed Xenovia's head and watched her silly smile; he became worried about their future children. Still, he suddenly noticed a gaze from the side. He turned and saw the woman who stared at him, quickly lowering her head as if she didn't want him to notice.
Tsubaki didn't dare to meet his eyes as she was nervous and afraid to show her emotion, but suddenly, she felt a warm hand gently rub her hair. This action gave her courage, and she looked up, watching his warm smile, causing her to fall once again. Like Xenovia, she also showed a silly smile.
Watching Tsubaki, Riser realized that he might not have taken care of her that much, but he was extremely busy, especially with many things happening to him. Moreover, his peerage members also worked together, so all of his attention would be on them all the time.
For them, Riser, who had become Lucifer, was like the burning flame in the middle of the dark. In this darkness where nothing could be seen, he was the single guide that gave everyone hope. This hope was like an attraction to them, and they definitely wouldn't be the only ones that were attracted to him.
As long as there was no Sona, they would try to seduce him.
Nevertheless, sometimes, they wondered whether they lacked a charm since Riser didn't jump toward them all like a beast in heat, but they also understood that as he had become Lucifer, there was something that he needed to do, and they also weren't in a hurry as a devil they lived a long life.
However, what they didn't know was that in those times, Riser spent his time with Ravel, but this wasn't something that he could talk about.
Moreover, there was something that Riser needed to do first.
"First, except for Saji, Xenovia, and Tsubaki..."
Riser looked at the rest of Sona's peerage members except those he mentioned.
Momo Hanakai, Reya Kusaka, Tomoe Meguri, Tsubasa Yura, and Ruruko Nimura suddenly became nervous.
Watching those five girls, Riser wondered why Sona chose them as there wasn't anything special about them, especially Momo and Ruruko, who were just normal humans without even a Sacred Gear, but since they were his wife's peerage members, he would help them.
"I have prepared something for all of you."
"Something?" 5x
"What did you prepare for them, Riser-chan~?"
Not only the five girls but even Serafall asked curiously.
"Probably many might have guessed that my peerage members are using something similar to Sacred Gears, or they might even mistake it as Sacred Gears."
Everyone nodded as they saw Riser's "Rating Game" and how his peerage members showed an exceptional performance by using various tools that made them stronger. Many of them thought that they used Sacred Gear, and they didn't feel surprised as they thought Riser used the method from the fallen angel to rob the Sacred Gears from their hosts.
Yet, no one said anything, and they felt that it was okay as Riser only took the Sacred Gear from a human.
Even if Riser killed those humans, no one said anything, as a human was nothing but livestock for the devils.
While some might have a different view, the supernatural world was the world where the strong got everything and the weak were eaten.
So, those who died because their Sacred Gear was taken by Riser could only blame their luck for being targeted by the strongest devil, but—
"They are not?" Sona asked.
"No." Riser shook his head. "They are not Sacred Gear, but a tool that I have crafted. You can call it Mocking Gear."
"..." Everyone.
Riser looked at the five girls again and said, "And I have prepared five Mocking Gears for the five of you."
"Really?" Nimura asked excitedly.
"Yes." Riser nodded. "So, during this month, I hope that you can learn those items well and become stronger."
"Yes, Riser-sama!" 5x
Hearing his words, those five girls became excited as they also wished to become stronger.
Still, Xenovia, Saji, Tsubaki, and even Sona became slightly envious.
"It's not fair~! Riser-chan, I want mocking gear, too~!" Serafall pouted, moving around on his back, acting like a spoiled child.
Riser somehow wanted to throw this woman away, but when he felt her breasts, he decided to ignore her. He wanted to talk about something again, but—
"Riser."
This familiar voice...
Everyone turned and saw someone they had expected.
Rias came with Koneko and Akeno, walking toward him. She gave her best smile as she was happy that she could catch him up, but at the same time, she was also nervous as she was afraid of being ignored by him.
Riser didn't look at Rias but looked at Sona as he felt Sona's gaze.
Facing her husband's gaze, Sona then looked away, staring at Rias. "What's wrong, Rias?"
Rias glanced at Sona for a moment before continuing her focus on Riser, but he didn't say anything, which caused her to be even more nervous. "Um... Lucifer-sama, can I talk with you?"
This time, Riser turned and looked at Rias. Her eyes were reddened, seemingly on the verge of tears, showing an extremely pitiful expression. If it was others, they would directly ask what was happening as they tried to make her happy, but he didn't care, and his heart wasn't even moved by her expression.
"Is there something that you want to ask, Rias Gremory?"
Everyone looked at Riser at the same time, wondering why there seemed to be a gap between him and Rias, but to be honest, it was hard to ask Rias such a question.
Rias opened her lips, closing them, before biting her lower lip in frustration, but she bowed her head and pleaded, "Can you train my Rook, Koneko Toujou? I know my request might be brazen, but you are the only one I can seek."
Riser didn't immediately answer and looked at Akeno, who showed a smile, then looked at Koneko, who was nervous but peeked at him from time to time.
"Sure."
"Thank you, Lucifer-sama!" Rias was happy. "Please visit my—"
"Come on, Koneko. Follow me."
Before Rias finished her words, Riser had already left.
Everyone looked at each other before they followed Riser, but Sona didn't leave immediately and said, "Train hard, Rias. I won't lose to you since you are a rival that I have acknowledged."
"...yes, I definitely won't lose to you either, Sona."
Rias tried to endure her anger as she answered Sona's challenge calmly.
The two smiled at each other like how their relationship used to be, even though they knew their relationship had changed.
However, Koneko wondered what she should do as her eyes kept moving toward Riser and Rias.
"Go follow Lucifer-sama, Koneko."
Rias calmly said, "Don't waste your chance and become stronger, okay?"
"Yes, Rias-sama."
Hearing those words, Koneko bowed her head before quickly following Riser so she wouldn't be left behind. She joined Sona's group as they were familiar.
When they left, Akeno looked at Rias and wanted to ask about her condition, but she stopped the words from her mouth and sighed. She took off her handkerchief and wiped Rias' tears.
"Don't cry, Rias..."
Rias then looked at Akeno and asked, "Akeno, just what should I do?"
"I..."
Akeno couldn't answer that question and just hugged Rias. "For now, we should focus on our "Rating Game." Let's win, okay?" She might not know what kind of answer she should give to Rias, but she knew they should focus on their "Rating Game."
"Yes."
Rias nodded and knew that she had to win this "Rating Game," so that way, "he" would look in her direction and show that warm smile again.
