Chapter 241: Youth Gathering

Chapter 241: Youth Gathering

After Riser's exaggerated display of power, all the youths invited to this gathering introduced themselves.

From Sona to Rias, everyone in this place introduced themselves in front of the high echelons of the Underworld.

Yet, the pressures of those individuals were nothing compared to Riser.

In front of Riser, everything was meaningless after all.

Still, when they introduced themselves, Riser reduced his aura, making them feel better, but even so, their hearts had already been conquered by him, and at this moment, he was above everyone.

After all of them introduced themselves, Riser took over the lead of this event as he talked about the purpose of this gathering.

"You six are all devils of the next generation that have the pedigree and true ability that no objection can be raised against. That's why I want you to compete together before your debuts and increase your power this way."The inaugural upload of this chapter took place via N0v3l-B1n.

Yes, that was the purpose of this gathering.

To have six exceptional youths have a "Rating Game" against each other.

While Riser felt that it was a drag, it was a tradition for the young generation to compete with each other.

Even Serafall, Ajuka, Sirzech, and Falbium also fought each other during their youth.

Riser was the same, but his opponents weren't exceptional, and he was already the best even though he was quite so-so until he got his system.

Still, even though Riser had conquered all of them with his aura, somehow someone was just too...

Riser sighed as he looked at Sairaorg, who was about to talk.

"Will we also eventually be sent out in the battle against the Khaos Brigade?"

"No."

If it was Sirzech, he would hesitate and would say, "I don't know," and everything depended on the situation.

However, in his case, Riser felt there was no need for them to face the Khaos Brigade.

"Why, Lucifer-sama?" Sairaorg expressed his dissatisfaction as he felt he was strong enough to face the Khaos Brigade. While he knew that he owed Riser a lot of things, as someone who was talentless, he wished to show his power to everyone.

"Sairaorg, watch your mouth!"

"You are talking to Lucifer-sama!"

"Do you think you can be so rude just because you are the young master of the Bael House?

Many started to get angry at Sairaorg's rudeness, but Riser was calm and raised his hand to stop all of them. While he knew that they got angry so they could curry his favor, he wondered whether they tried to make his relationship with the Great King faction turn sour since they had made his position above the Great King.

While Riser couldn't deny that it was the truth, he didn't really want to kill the Great King faction as they were good for him.

Nevertheless, facing Sairaorg's rudeness, Riser didn't get angry. After all, who made Sairaorg's mother have a relationship with him?

"Are you close with Sairaorg's mother?" Serafall asked in a whisper.

Riser decided to ignore Serafall and said,"Sairaorg, I know that you are impatient to show your worth, but you are young. You will have plenty of chances to show your power to everyone. There is no need to be in a hurry, and let us protect you all until you grow, okay?

Riser's voice was full of gentleness, which surprised many.

After all, they never expected that Riser would be this gentle, but at the same time, this also reassured them, and they also agreed with his words as it was their duty as the older generation to guide and protect the young generation instead of letting the younger generation fight and face all the villains.

"..." The original story.

When Riser saw Sairaorg was about to say something, he said, "Sairaorg, should I tell you how stubborn you are to your mother?"

"Lucifer-sama..."

Sairaorg looked at Riser helplessly.

Facing his father, Sairaorg didn't care, but facing his mother?

Still, when it came to Rias, Riser had to say her dream was kind of modest, but he didn't say anything. However, when it came to the last, Sona, who was also his wife, everyone fell into silence.

"I wish to build a school for Rating Game in the Underworld."

"If it's learning about Rating Game, isn't there already one for that, Sona-sama?"

One of the nobles asked curiously.

Riser didn't feel surprised by the confusion by the majority, as not everyone learned about his agreement with Zekram Bael to allow Sona to build a Rating Game for—

"That is a school where only high-class devils and evils of privileged rank are accepted. The school that I want to build is one where low-class devils and reincarnated devils can also attend without any distinction."

"..."

Everyone fell in silence for a moment before they nodded without saying their disdain toward such a school.

Sona was the wife of Riser, so no one dared to laugh at her dream even though they knew her school was nothing but meaningless, especially when those low-class devils and reincarnated devils would only become middle-class at best, no matter how much they struggled.

This wasn't some kind of nonsense; after all, the society of the devil was like this, and everything was determined by pedigree. Naturally, there was an exception, but such a chance only happened among one in the millions.

In conclusion, Sona's dream was ridiculous, but no one laughed as Sona was Lucifer's wife and Leviathan's little sister.

Instead, everyone was looking at Riser.

Riser was about to clap his hands and express his support toward his wife, but—

"Sona-chan, you should know how ridiculous your dream is, right?"

"Oi."

Riser frowned at Serafall, saying that she was too much.

"Let me talk, Riser-chan." Serafall was calm, and her expression differed from her usual as she gazed into her little sister. "Sona-chan should know the reason why no one laughs at your dream is because of Riser-chan, who had been working hard behind the scenes, gaining permission from Zekram-sama himself. Without Riser-chan, your dream is nothing but a pipedream."

Riser wanted to say something, but in the end, he stopped when he saw Serafall's expression. If it were others, he might kill them directly, as Sona was his wife. Whatever her whim was, it didn't matter, and even if she did something stupid, he was the only one who could reprimand and get angry at her as she was his wife.

Still, except for him, Serafall also had such a privilege, and Riser also knew that there was something that he couldn't talk about, especially when he was Sona's husband.

Sona looked at her older sister as she widened her eyes in surprise since she didn't expect Serafall to say something like that.

"So-chan, everything you receive now is a privilege that comes from Riser-chan and me, so don't embarrass the two of us and do something half-assed, okay?"

"Yes."

Sona knew that the reason why no one laughed at her dream was because of Riser, and because of that, she needed to do her best so she wouldn't embarrass him.

Yet, watching this exchange, Rias frowned, feeling jealous, so when everything was over, she took the initiative.

"Lucifer-sama, can you let me be Sona's first opponent?"

"?!"

Everyone was startled by Rias' words, but hearing Rias' brazenness, the majority of them sneered.

"Little girl, you should watch your mouth."

"Your brother might be the former Lucifer, but he is no longer one."

"How dare you talk like that?!"

Rias was stunned by everyone's reaction, as she hadn't expected this reaction.

Watching this, Rias' peerage members were also startled, but Issei quickly got angry.

Watching this, Asia and the others quickly reacted, quickly trying to Issei, but it was too late.

"YOU BASTARD! HOW DARE YOU LAUGH AT BUCHOU?!"

"....." Everyone.
