Bab 302: Dim light
With everything resolved, Latia joined the club.
Still, Diodora's peerage members didn't join immediately. Instead, they were taken care of by Riser's Queen, Yubelluna, who told him that they should become maids first.
Riser didn't say much since being the maid in his house was much better than being a slave of the others. Moreover, with his protection, even if they were part of Diodora's peerage members, they would be alright.
Still, Riser wondered whether this was okay.
Even if Diodora had tried to attack him before, he had become a loyal subordinate who sacrificed his life to kill his enemy.
Yet, when Diodora passed away, Riser took care of Diodora's women and might even turn them into his women. However, when he thought about what would happen to them, he knew that he needed to do something.
'You don't need to worry, Diodora. I'll take care of them.'
As Diodora had done a good deed, Riser was going to take care of Diodora's women.
Suddenly, Riser felt that he might still have a long way to go to become a villain.
"...." System.
Nevertheless, he wasn't in a hurry to take care of them since his wife was still around, and his other women definitely wouldn't allow him to sleep with them, especially Diodora's peerage members, and would stop him no matter what since it would cause a lot of trouble in the aftermath.
Still, as for Latia?
They wouldn't stop Latia and thought that Latia would become a legal mistress, considering her status and all.
"Are you going to mate with them too?" Ophis suddenly asked.
"....."
Riser looked at Ophis, who pushed Kuroka away and then sat on his lap.
"Ophis-chan! You are being unfair, nyaa! You are unreasonable, nyaa!"
Kuroka showed her grief.
If Riser pushed her, she didn't mind since she knew that this guy was a tsundere, but Ophis was different since this infinite dragon was a tyrant.
The others also felt that Ophis was unreasonable, but as the second strongest being in the world, what could they do against Ophis?
After Ophis stayed in his villa, as long as Riser didn't go on a date or mate with his women, she would stay with him and sit on his lap as if it were her home.
Riser sometimes wondered when Ophis was going to return to the Dimensional Gap. Still, as he was in a good mood after he conquered the Astaroth House, he didn't care much about Ophis' childish action and her quarrel with Kuroka. However, there was something that he wanted to ask Ophis, so he needed Kuroka to be quiet.
"Kuroka, be quiet for a moment. I want to ask Ophis something."
"....." Kuroka.
"Cat," Ophis said plainly.
"..."
Kuroka wanted to beat Ophis, but when she thought that she could do nothing, she could only sigh helplessly.
"How about you become bigger, nyaa? You can do it, right? I remember you can become as huge as a mountain, nyaa!"
If everyone remembered the most about Riser, it wasn't his flame manipulation or other techniques. Instead, it was his ability to make himself bigger. At that time, when he fought the Great Red, he became so enormous that everyone became ants before him. It had a great impact on everyone, as they had never thought that someone could do that.
While such talk stopped when Riser disappeared, when he returned, this talk returned, and many devils with perverted thoughts sometimes said that their Lucifer had the biggest size.
Sona was furious when she heard such news, especially when a sexy, famous actress somehow expressed her wish to sleep with her husband.
Watching this news, Riser was speechless, but he didn't say anything since it improved the mood of the Underworld after the catastrophe, yet he had to say, it felt weird.
"Be quiet for a moment. I want to talk about something with Ophis."
"What's wrong?" Ophis looked at Riser curiously.
"Is there something on the Dimensional Gap?" Riser asked. He knew the Dimensional Gap, but at the same time, he didn't know much, considering how dangerous that place would be. Only the strong could stay there, and those weaklings would die the moment they entered such a place.
Nevertheless, Riser still remembered Rizevim, whose memory he had taken a peek at before. He recalled that Rizevim's wish was to visit another world and to do that, Rizevim had to pass the Dimensional Gap.
Previously, such a thing couldn't be done since the Great Red existed, swimming in the Dimensional Gap.
However, the Great Red was defeated by him.
While many might have doubted him, this was the reality.
Riser wasn't sure whether Rizevim might go to another world, but at the same time, he wondered whether the creatures from another world might invade this world. While such a chance might be low since it wasn't so easy to go to another world, he wanted to ask whether Ophis had seen something strange in the Dimensional Gap.
After all, prevention is better than cure, right?
Riser knew the chance of the creatures from another world invading his world might be small, but it wouldn't be hurt to prepare like how one brought an umbrella in case a rain happened.
Hearing his question, Ophis fell into silence, but then she shook her head.
"Nothing."
"Nothing?"
"Um." Ophis nodded. "There is nothing except for a few islands there." Except for a dangerous space, there were few lands that floated within the Dimensional Gap, but as only the strongest could live there, there was no living being except for Ophis and the Great Red that had ever lived in that place.
"Is that so?"
Yet, why did he feel worried?
"Is there something wrong, Riser-sama?" Koneko asked.
"Nothing. I just hope that I am overthinking."
Riser wondered whether this was the effect of the "Chosen One" since sometimes he could tell when a problem might occur. It was like he could see the fate, the invisible line that would lead him into a certain reaction, whether it was good or bad.
Hearing his answer, they didn't question him anymore and thought about enjoying their stays, especially Xenovia and Sona's peerage members since they would return to the human world soon.
Still, while Akeno and Koneko were worried about their master, they knew that they couldn't force Riser, and they could only let everything move by fate.
By the time Sona returned, Riser was spending time with his wife and also wanted to spend his time with Misla since, after this, Sona would have to have a Rating Game against Sairaorg.
After the last incident, Rias and her group decided to retire, especially when Issei passed away, and her domain was wrecked by Tannin. With many things happening, she felt that it was better to recuperate until everything got better.
While Riser was surprised by Rias' choice, considering her personality and all, he also knew that it was the best choice for her, considering her current situation.
Still, when he was about to go to Misla's villa, he thought of visiting the secret park where he went to Sona when they got married. It was also a place where they talked heart-to-heart. While he wasn't sure why he wished to visit this place, he just got this urge.
Only fate often loved to play jokes since, when he arrived, did he realize he wasn't alone.
Under the dim light, her beautiful crimson hair was distinct.
"...Rias?"
However, her act suddenly dumbfounded him.
"What are you doing?!"
