Chapter 45: I, Riser Phenex, have a dream

The sound of a pencil against paper was perceived inside the room.

Riser focused all of his attention on the blueprint before him before he put down his pencil and stretched his hands up, loosening his slightly stiff body. He looked at the scenery outside, and the color of the sky was the same purple as ever.

Still, he had started to get used to this sky, but he would be lying if he didn't miss the blue sky of the day and the night sky of the night on Earth.

Before, he was a devil; he was a human, so he couldn't get rid of some of the common senses and habits he had collected during his previous life. Nevertheless, he was glad that Riser's memory merged into him, or else he would become an idiot in the eyes of others.

However, even if he missed the human world, he didn't really want to go to the human world since he was afraid the system might give him a strange option once again.

His quest to help Sona build a school hadn't been completed. Even if there was no punishment or time limit for this quest, he didn't want something troublesome to fall onto his hands once again, especially when he was so busy.

"Riser-sama, your coffee."

"Thank you, Marion."

Marion, his pawn, leaned forward as she put his cup of coffee on his table.

However, due to her posture, her red colored bra and looming breasts could be seen from the side.

"Riser-sama?"

Marion might seem to have noticed his gaze, but she still smiled kindly in his direction as she tucked her hair behind her ear, making such a feminine gesture.

Was this intentional?

Did this woman try to seduce him?

Yet, such seduction was no way to sway him.

No, even that seduction swayed him, but when he thought about the danger that came when he accepted this seduction, he decided to hold it, especially when tomorrow Sona would go back to the Underworld.

It was only one day.

As an adult, he should have self-restraint.

"Can you bring me some snacks, Marion?"

"I have just baked an orange pie. Is that alright with you?"

"Yes, please."

Marion excused herself before she went to the kitchen to pick up the orange pie.

As she left, Riser decided to busy himself with his work since if he did nothing; he was afraid that he might not be able to control his little Riser.

After Sona left to go to school in the human world, even though he spent his time in the debauchery life with his peerage members, it didn't mean he did nothing.

Moreover, Riser also modified the Feng Shui in this city and design, turning it into the city with the greatest luck, especially for the owner.

Lastly, he also added healing, purifying, beautifying, negative ailment nullification, and many other magics that could bring benefit to the body at the source of the hot spring.

Watching all of the impressive things he had brought, his parents and family decided to be bold, wishing to create this new city. After all, due to his "Architecture Mastery and "Feng Shui," the chance for this resort city to succeed was high.

Still, he held them and told them that they might as well make a seven-star hotel first instead of a city, which was cheaper than making a city.

The city needed a lot of population, but a hotel was different since there was no doubt they wouldn't lack guests with how amazing this resort would be.

Nevertheless, he had to be amazed at the speeds of Devil's construction team. After all, this villa of his was done in just a few days, and from what it seemed, the luxurious hotel that could be seen from his room should be completed in summer.

Still, everything should be over, and he could relax, but his parents and family didn't let him as they asked him to draw a design for the cities and houses in their families since they knew the combination of architecture and magic was something that they couldn't let pass.

Frankly, all the houses of the Lord and aristocratic families were covered in barriers, and if someone entered without permission, they would be found out. However, this wasn't perfect since as long as someone passed the barrier, they would be free to do anything inside the house.

Moreover, if someone wanted to cover the entire city with a barrier, it would take a lot of energy.

However, those problems didn't exist in his design.

Even if their rules were firm and stable, having more protection on their houses wouldn't hurt, right?

So, it was the reason why he needed to work, which made him want to cry.

'Hmph! I'm going to make a fraud account and corrupt more money.'

If he didn't do so, his heart wouldn't feel satisfied.

Nevertheless, even if his day was hard since he also needed to train his body, his peerage members came to his room every night, playing and training together.

As their master, he was pleased with their willingness and dedication to learn, so on those days; he spent his time teaching them well.

Naturally, Ravel didn't know this.

Or did she know but pretended she didn't know?

However, it didn't matter since his night was happy.

Yet, such a day no longer exists.

Why?

Suddenly, the door of his room was opened with a bang.

"Riser-chan~! Have you finished with your work~?"

"...."

Riser let out a long sigh, thinking that his dream was hard to achieve.
