Chapter 128: Riser the Alchemist

Tannin.

It is a creature that appears in the Hebrew Bible's Book of Genesis.

Yet, in this world, he is called the Blaze Meteor Dragon.

He was also one of the five Dragon Kings but was reincarnated by Mephisto Pheles, becoming a Devil.

While it might be strange, considering how selfish, stubborn, and prideful a creature known as a dragon was, Tannin had two reasons to become a devil.

The first was to participate in the Rating Games; the second was for the Dragon Apples, a fruit that now exists only in the Underworld, which a certain race of Dragons needs to eat in order to survive.

After all, Tannin was quite different from the other Dragon Kings, as he was cornered about the other dragons and the continuation of their races.

Nevertheless, as a Dragon King, his power was undoubted as he became one of the top ten on the "Rating Game" and became an Ultimate-Class Devil, where he gained the right to receive his own territory and chose the area where the Dragon Apples grew.

There was no doubt that Tannin was a respectable and mighty dragon.This chapter was first shared on the Ñøv€lß1n platform.

Yet, such a legendary dragon was going to become Riser's opponent in the "Rating Game," so whether Tannin's story would move someone or not, Riser didn't care as he thought of Tannin as nothing but just a stepping stone for him to achieve his ambition.

Nevertheless, no matter how amazing the Dragon King was, in the end, Tannin became nothing but Sirzech's lackey.

Even the two Heavenly Dragons, two powerful dragons whose might could kill even Satans and Gods, became nothing but a Sacred Gear, a tool used by humans.

In the end, a dragon was nothing but an animal.

A dragon is nothing but just another beast.

Facing an intelligent creature, they could only either bow down or adapt to become an intelligent creature.

A strong power was necessary, but having a good brain was even more important so people wouldn't use them.

Once again, the most common example was Issei.

After all, Issei didn't have a brain. The only thing he had was just guts and power, so he was being used by many without him noticing it. Even more, he was happy to help them and would help them with all of his might, even if it cost him his life.

Yet Vali Lucifer was even worse as his pride got the better of him and almost cost him his life.

If Vali didn't have anyone who wished to protect him, Riser was sure that he could kill Vali that day.

Nevertheless, Riser felt that he was similar.

After all, as long as he apologized, he could gain promotion into the class that the majority of the devil could only dream of in their lives.

Yet, he chose the most troublesome way to get his promotion.

It might be impossible now, but in his next match, it was possible, right?

Still, everyone was speechless by Riser's conduct, but they could only bite their thumb, hoping that they could receive some soups from the Phenex House.

Nevertheless, whether it was the Phenex House, the Sitri House, or everyone who was involved with those two houses worked together to advertise this match.

It wouldn't be weird to say that Riser and Tannin became the talk of all the residents of the Underworld.

Moreover, they also prepared an eye-catching catchphrase.

Phoenix Versus Dragon.

Those words were enough to make all the residents of the darkness filled with excitement about this match.

'Arigatou, Sirzech-sama.'

Some of them thought as they copied Sirzech's catchphrase without shame.

Nevertheless, Riser knew that no one expected that he would win. Even though he had defeated Kokabiel, Vali, and Azazel, and all of them had seen how he had won against them, compared to Tannin, they felt that all of them were weaker, including him, who had defeated them.

Yet, when one had to compare a creature 15 meters in height and Riser, whose height was just above average, the answer was obvious, right?

Everyone felt that Riser would lose.

Nevertheless, the hype of the match was unstoppable, and everyone wanted to see the might of Riser, who had defeated Kokabiel, Vali, and Azazel against Tannin, the Dragon King.

Yet, with all of the talk within Underworld, Riser ignored all of that and showed a new business that he had prepared in front of his parents.

"What is this?"

Lord Phenex and Lady Phenex looked at the thing that was shown by their son.

"Energy drink."

"...what?" 2x

"Energy drink."

When everyone talked about his match with Tannin, Riser calmly planned to enter an energy drink business.
