Riser Phenex isn't a villain

Chapter 325: Akeno knows Riser the best

There was nothing that Ajuka could do except accept this request and leave with Suzaku.

While Suzaku wished for Riser to be the one who handled this problem, she knew that this was the limit, and she regretted losing her calmness when she came earlier, giving him a bad impression.

Yet, there was no second chance.

When this charade was over, the party ended, and everyone returned to their homes while talking excitedly about what had happened before, especially the fight between Riser and Hades.

Hades?

This god was wrecked by Riser!

There is no doubt that this will be the talk of everyone in the supernatural world tomorrow.

As for Hades' reputation?

No one cared at all since building a reputation for Riser was the correct thing that everyone had to do.

The stronger he was, the stronger this alliance was.

"Did Ajuka-chan annoy you or something?"

"Yeah, did something happen between you two?"

Serafall and Falbium couldn't help but ask since they felt like Riser was trying to target Ajuka.

Riser glanced at the two and wondered what they would think when Ajuka was the one who set out the Great Red before. If he didn't bring the Great Red to space within the "Duelist," then they were as good as dead. At that moment, he knew that Ajuka had never treated the two of them as friends and only thought of Sirzech as one since their death didn't matter in his eyes.

Nevertheless, it didn't matter since it was only a time before Ajuka died.

"It's okay. I just don't believe in the Five Principal Clans."

"Why? Isn't that the place where Akeno-chan comes from?" Serafall asked.

At this moment, not only Serafall and Falbium but many others who were related to him, including his women, Zekram, Baraqiel, and Michael, were there, listening to his words.

"If I am not wrong, the Five Principal Clans should be related to Slash Dog, right?"

"Slash Dog?"

This term was unfamiliar to them.

"Baraqiel, explain it to them."

"Slash Dog is..." Baraqiel explained to everyone about the origin of the Slash Dog, a special team consisting of a Sacred Gear user and led by a Longinus user from the Grigori.

"Longinus?!"

Everyone was startled.

"Does Grigori have another Longinus user?" Rias asked dumbfoundedly.

Everyone was clear about how powerful Longinus was. Even Issei, who was just a perverted boy, could become so powerful due to Longinus, so if a normal human being held it, then wouldn't they become one of the powerhouses?

"What kind of Longinus?" Sona asked.

"Canis Lykaon," Baraiqiel explained to Canis Lykaon about its power and form, but unlike a normal Canis Lykaon, the one that was held by Tobio Ikuse, the leader of the Slash Dog, was quite different.

"What's the difference?" Meredith asked, wondering if the case of Longinus was the same as her Sacred Gear that changed.

"It seems that there is Ame-no-Ohabari, a divine sword used to kill the Fire God that combines with this Longinus."

"So, the combination of a dog king and an old sword, right?"

"Ah, um, that's correct."

"....." Everyone.

When they thought about how powerful Canis Lykaon was, they felt speechless at how Riser simplified this Longinus.

Still, he noticed Meredith's twinkling gaze on him, which made him speechless, but he shook his head. Watching his answer, she was obedient and didn't force her idea.

Why was Alphecca Tyrant so powerful?

While it was true that this Sacred Gear might not be able to control the other supernatural beings, as long as one was a human, even if one had a Longinus, they could be controlled by Meredith, and it was the reason why her Sacred Gear was so powerful.

"Still, why did we suddenly talk about this dog guy, nyaa?" Kuroka asked in confusion.

"It's because this dog guy has betrayed Grigori to work with Vali."

"..." Everyone.

"Now, why did I talk about this guy when I talked about the Five Principal Clans?" Riser looked at Akeno when he said those words.

Why?

"It is because Tobio Ikuse's fiancee is that cousin of yours, Akeno."

"..."

Akeno fell in silence and blinked her eyes as her entire body was cold, realizing what kind of mistake she had made.

"I-I am sorry, Dear... I-I don't know..."

If she knew all of this, would she dare to help Suzaku?

"It's okay. You don't need to feel afraid. To be honest, I don't mind helping her, but in case they might become an enemy due to Tobio Ikuse, is that alright with you?"

"Wi-Will we have to fight with Suzaku-oneesama?" Akeno asked worriedly.

"We aren't if they are being honest, and as long as they can announce in public that Vali and the Slash Dog are their enemies, but if they continue to be stubborn, then that's it."

Hearing Riser's words, Akeno hoped that Suzaku could be smart and could do what Riser asked for. "I will try to ask Suzaku-oneesama." Or should she make Suzaku sleep with Riser so that there wouldn't be any fights between them?

As for the fact that Suzaku was Tobio's fiance, Akeno felt that it didn't matter as she was sure that Riser would be more excited by that fact.

Riser didn't have much hope for Suzaku, and he didn't know what Akeno was planning, but then he thought that there was one more thing that he needed to do, so he looked at Baraqiel and said, "Baraqiel, after this, tell everyone on the fallen angel that the Slash Dog has betrayed, and they will become the target of the alliance due their connection with the Khaos Brigade."

"...yes." Baraqiel sighed helplessly inwardly, but he didn't dare to reject.

"Now, the only one who has the Longinus is the angel, huh?" Falbium commented, causing all eyes to be on Michael.

Michael was nervous at that moment and didn't know what to say.

"It's okay. It's just a Longinus."

"..." Everyone.

If it was someone else, they might smash their heads, but when the one said those words were Riser, they felt like it was normal.

Riser then took something out of his space storage and threw it to Baraqiel. "It's for you."

Baraqiel was startled and held something thrown by Riser subconsciously. "Wh-What is this?" It was a saber with a long green hilt and a circular beige guard, as well as a wide and thin guard around the hilt with a blue sheath. When he unsheathed the sword, he could feel that he was brimming with energy and could tell how sharp this weapon was.

Somehow, he had an idea of what Riser planned to do by throwing this weapon at him, but Baraqiel needed to confirm it since he had to say it was precious.

"That's Mocking Gear. You must have heard it, right? You can use that as compensation for you to label the Slash Dog group as part of the criminal group."

"...you gave it to me?"

"Yes, the fallen angel needs someone powerful to protect everyone, so I give you that." Riser looked at Baraqiel and asked, "Or you don't want to?"

"Thank you very much!"

"The name of that weapon is Ruffian."

"Ru-Ruffian?"

While the sword was amazing, the name was as absurd as ever.

"It has the ability to make you stronger during the day, make you think faster, and it can also cut most of the things in the world."

"Thank-Thank you..." Baraqiel was so moved that he cried.

"Geez, Otou-sama..." Akeno looked at her father helplessly, but she was also happy, so she was going to let Riser give him a lot of love later at night.

"But stronger during the day?" Baraqiel asked curiously.

"It's in the morning on the earth. Do you want to see how powerful you become?" Riser felt like it was faster to see how powerful this weapon was instead of talking with his mouth.

"...is that okay?"

"Sure." Riser looked at Meredith and asked, "Meredith, can you transfer all of us to Kuoh town?"

"Yeah."

Using the power of "Warp Warp no Mi," Meredith teleported everyone to Kuoh Town instantly. When they were all dumbfounded by Meredith's speed at teleportation, they were dumbfounded by Baraqiel's brimming power and energy.

Under the sun, Baraqiel became stronger and stronger as time passed, and his body became bright and hot due to this new power.

"WOOOOOOOOO!!!!"

Baraqiel was full of excitement, but Michael, who saw all of this, fell into silence, and he thought that he really needed to send Gabriel and many cute girls from Heaven's side to Riser's chamber.
