Chapter 313: Overbearing Lucifer

Chapter 313: Overbearing Lucifer

When Riser planned to go to the human world and expressed his desire to run away from his work, Sona quickly seduced him and told him to help her with a task that she needed to do but didn't have time to do.

Nevertheless, her request was an act of impudence, especially when her husband was a Lucifer, one with the greatest position in the Underworld, yet she asked him for an errand. Naturally, she knew her act would dishonor his status, so she exchanged his service by telling him that she would wear various costumes from magical girls, witches, nurses, maids, etc.

However, Riser didn't waver, as it was impossible for his status to be challenged.

So, Sona had to bleed by saying that she would invite her big sister and Rias together.

By then, Riser agreed as this price was suitable for his status. Moreover, while he didn't say it to Sona, he was quite interested in this task.

"Searching for the lost member of an extinct household of the devil?"L1tLagoon witnessed the first publication of this chapter on Ñøv€l--B1n.

Inside the car driven by Rossweisse, everyone listened to Riser's explanation about the task that he had to do and that they needed help.

"Yes, the one that we are searching for is a member from the extinct Velpar household, one of the 72 Pillars."

While they might know some of the histories of the world, they weren't knowledgeable about the history of the devil, so Riser decided to explain the general situation of the devils to them.

Still, he knew that they should know about the origin of the devils and the structure of the society of the Underworld; considering the origin of Asia, Irina, and Xenovia were from the church, they should know the basic knowledge about the devil.

As for Rossweisse?

Rossweisse could be said to be one of the smartest Valkrye in the Norse Myth, so it was natural for her to know about the devil, especially when she was working under Riser, so she learned more about the devil since she didn't want to become a burden for him.

However, there was no doubt their knowledge of the "Devil Civil War" was quite minimal since the devil wouldn't expose this information to the world. Still, it didn't mean that they kept this matter a secret as the Devil Civil War was a big matter, and naturally, everyone would know about it.

Nevertheless, even if the other myths knew about this, they only explained it to some, and some of them might not even have an interest since they thought that all the devils were similar to each other.

If there was a difference, it would be that there was a strong and a weak devil.

However, what Riser wanted to explain was why there were many members of the extinct devil households in the human world.

"When the war is over, many families have gone bankrupt, losing everything. In the lucky case, those who lose at the Devil Civil War can live in the corner of the Underworld, but those who are unlucky can only get out from the Underworld and live in the human world.

"By then, they make their own descendants with varieties of races, but mostly humans."

As a human was the most populous race in the world.

"But, Riser-sama, aren't all the nobles rich?" Irina asked curiously. In her opinion, even those devils who had lost in the Devil Civil War shouldn't have a problem with their lives, right? After all, they were noble, so she was confused as to why some of them could become bankrupt.

Riser chuckled. "Not everyone is like mine, my wife's, or Rias' family."

Unlike his family, who had monopolized several industries and were able to sell Phenex Tears, his wife's family, who monopolized the medical industry, or Rias' family, who was good at deceiving individuals to work for them.

Many noble devils were naive and even stupid, such as the Diehauser family, who could only rely on his feat on the Rating Game to develop his domain.

Frankly, if Riser was in Diehauser's place, he would develop a variety of industries, including food, tourism, and some other specialties. In the case of the Bellial house, where Diehauser came from, he thought that they should try to enter a security business as their special ability, Worthless, could nullify any abilities.

Still, he wouldn't bother to explain that, and he wanted to finish his job as soon as possible.

By then, they talked about what the devil from the Vepar Household would be like.

After all, a devil from a different household had their own unique features. It was like him, who was from the Phenex House, had a flame-like wing, or Rias with her beautiful crimson hair. The Vepar household should have a certain unique feature, right?

Riser was also quite curious since it was an extinct household; he hadn't seen the real devil from the Vepar Household.

"According to the record, they should be similar to a fish."

Riser looked at Lalatifa and wondered why many devils had a good personality. Shouldn't a devil be an evil?

"Lalatifa! Have you made up your mind? Be mine! I will take care of you!"

Like an overbearing CEO, Gragg didn't hide his intention to make Lalatifa become his woman.

Still, Rossweisse, Irina, Xenovia, and Asia became tense and ready to fight since Gragg seemed to intend to force Lalatifa away.

Watching their reaction, Riser sighed and thought that there was really no fairness in this world. He looked at Gregg's face, which resembled an anglerfish, clearly far from the definition of handsome.

If Gregg's appearance was handsome, Riser could somehow imagine that this definitely wouldn't be the result. Instead, Lalatifa would agree, especially when she was poor and weak. Her only advantage was her beautiful face, and she was part of the extinct Vepar household. Moreover, he knew that this was Gregg's territory, and Lalatifa had also lived on Gregg's territory illegally.

Yet, somehow, Riser could imagine that Gregg was pictured as a villain in the story.

Nevertheless, Gregg, who saw Lalatifa, stood behind a man who felt angry since his love was taken, but when he was about to get angry, he stopped when he saw the man who stood in front of the woman he loved.

Gregg's peerage members also fell silent, and no one dared to say a single word.

"Gregg Forneus, right?"

"Ye-yes, Riser-sama!"

Gregg quickly jumped into the sea, then came to his side as soon as possible, bowing his head deeply. His peerage members also followed, and their postures were even lower. At the same time, all of them were glad that they hadn't said a single rude thing to Riser.

Except for those who lived in isolation like Lalatifa, it was impossible for anyone not to know Riser as he was the one who saved the Underworld from the Great Red.

"I won't stop your solicitation to Lalatifa, but don't use force, okay? She is the only living member of the Vepar household, after all."

"Ye-Yes! Please forgive me! I won't invite her!"

Just joking!

Gregg didn't dare to do anything to Riser's woman after all.

"....."

Riser knew that Gregg had misunderstood, but he wasn't a hungry beast who would go after every woman. Nevertheless, he felt bored now.

"Then, leave."

"Yes!"

There were many women in this world, but they had only a single life, so all of them left respectfully, and then the dark sky swept away.

Nevertheless, Lalatifa was dumbfounded and asked, "Ah, um, Ri-Riser, who are you?"

"Oh, right. I haven't introduced myself." Riser smiled at Lalatifa and said, "My name is Riser Phenex. I am the third son of Lord Phenex, but people mostly know me as Riser Lucifer.

"The current Lucifer of the Underworld."

"....."

Lalatifa fell in silence and thought about her experience in the human world. In her life in the human world, she also often read many works, and the one she liked the most was an overbearing CEO who was crazily in love with the heroine.

Still, Riser wasn't the CEO but a Lucifer, so should it be an overbearing Lucifer?

Nevertheless, was such a plot going to happen to her?

Lalatifa somehow anticipated her future.
