300 Confuse

"Do you want to meet them?" Sona asked. 

"How long have they been waiting?" Riser asked curiously since after he killed Tannin, he ignored everything and just spent all of his time with his women. 

"Right after you return, they came directly to the city, waiting to meet you." 

Sona hesitated, then said, "Don't treat Rias coldly, okay? Just accept her as part of your harem." 

"...." 

Riser was speechless by the words that came out of his wife's mouth. 

Was she really telling him to make Rias his woman?

Frankly, while Riser was angry at Rias since he was the one who had messed him up, there was no doubt that she was beautiful, and he wasn't such a hypocrite, thinking that he didn't want to take her down. 

Probably after he fought the Great Red, he realized that he didn't want to have regrets in life. 

Riser knew that he might have become the strongest being in this world, but it didn't mean the trouble that came toward him would stop. Instead, he knew that many tricky things would come after him, one after another. 

While he was confident about his strength, he knew he couldn't take the other lightly. It was like a lion would use its everything to take down a rabbit. 

Still, if there was something that he regretted during his fight with the Great Red, it was the fact that he couldn't become Desperado. 

By becoming Desperado, he could affect fate and make it move in his favor. He could also increase his Demonic Power even further. 

While such a thing might be a small thing, especially after he had received the "Chosen One" that made him have a power similar to a protagonist and also devoured the Great Red, inherited all the power of the Great Red, including the power of this strongest being, if he could get more, why not, right?

Yet, let's return to Rias. 

While Riser was greedy about Rias, he also didn't feel that much excitement toward her. He had a lot of women around him, and they were all beautiful. Frankly, their beauty wasn't much worse than Rias'. 

If there was something that made Rias more special than the others, it would be her status as the main heroine of this story. Moreover, she was also Sirzech Lucifer's little sister and the heiress of the Gremory House. 

His desire to conquer such a woman was definitely high, but that was before, especially when he thought about how many of his problems were caused by Rias. 

Even if Rias' life is miserable now, it was something fair, especially when she was the one who had caused all of his misery. 

Still, he was curious. 

"What happened to her?" 

Riser might have controlled Tannin, but as he fought the Great Red, he didn't put his focus on Tannin. 

Hearing his question, Sona told him everything about how almost half of the Gremory domain was destroyed, many of the branch family either died or were injured, Sirzech's peerage members were all dead, and her father was in deep injuries due to Tannin. 

Oh, there was also Issei?

However, Sona didn't bother to explain about Issei since he had already passed away. 

Still, Riser knew that Issei should have died, right?

Yet when Riser tried to search for "Boosted Gear," he was unable to find it. 

Was there no new host for "Boosted Gear"?

Still, the Longinus worked randomly, and everything was based on the system that was created by God. 

Even Azazel and the Grigori, who had learned about the Sacred Gears for so many years, were unable to understand the system created by God. 

Moreover, Riser also knew that the Sacred Gear would usually stay dormant unless the individual who was born with this power would awaken their Sacred Gears by a certain accident in their lives. 

Yet, it didn't matter since the "Boosted Gear" was only a Mid-Tier Longinus. 

While the power of "Boosted Gear" was good, it wasn't the strongest. 

Lastly, Riser confirmed that Issei had died, so his life should be peaceful now as no one would annoy him any longer. 

Still, while Riser did not care much about the misery that happened in Rias' house, he needed to show his concern. "Horrible." 

"Right?" 

"But I won't meet her and tell her that I am sorry." 

"Huh?" Sona was dumbfounded and asked, "You don't want to make Rias your woman?" 

"You silly girl." Riser looked at Sona helplessly and asked, "Do you think that I am still in love with her or something?" He held Sona on his arm and said, "Listen, Sona. You are my wife, and my love is for you. As for Rias? While her situation is quite regretful, this isn't the reason I should accept her as my woman. How should I explain this..." He thought for a moment and found the correct word. "It isn't ethical, right?" 

Riser knew that he was greedy for Rias' body, but it wasn't the point that he would beg or move like a dog in heat. Instead, if possible, he didn't really want to meet Rias since it was troublesome. He didn't really want to have much drama in his life and just enjoyed the warmth of women. 

Rias might be able to provide him with the warmth of the woman, but there were many who could do what she could do. 

Moreover, wasn't it quite wrong of him to just sleep with her after what was happening to the Gremory House?

Nevertheless, his answer surprised Sona. 

Sona knew that no matter how much she tried, she might not be able to replace Rias in Riser's heart, yet that didn't seem to be the case. No matter how beautiful and big Rias' breasts were, she was his wife, and he wouldn't change that. 

While Sona felt sorry for Rias, she was happy by his words. 

Naturally, Sona knew that Riser couldn't only be hers, but it didn't matter since she was his wife. 

"Still, help her with the reconstruction of her domain. I will take out some money." 

"Okay." Sona nodded. "I will take care of the rest." 

"Thanks." 

Riser kissed Sona's forehead, but then he noticed Sona kept staring at him. "What's wrong?" 

"Are you sure that you don't want Rias?" 

"I am sure." Riser sighed helplessly, but then he remembered. "Oh, right, you also said that Latia also wishes to meet me?" 

"Um." Sona nodded and asked, "Do you want to meet her?" 

"Are you close to Latia?" 

"Not really." Sona shook her head. "She is just a branch family of the Astaroth House. While we might meet on a certain occasion, our relationship isn't that close." 

It was said that only people with the same status would become friends with each other. 

Riser thought this sentence was correct. 

Yet, it couldn't be blamed, right?

After all, the meeting of two people with different statuses was almost nonexistent or rare. There might be some exceptions, but well, it didn't matter since now, it was a team to deal with Ajuka. 

"Still, you don't want Rias, but you want Latia to enter your harem?" 

"....." 

Riser looked at Sona and thought that he needed to show his majesty as a husband. 

---

Rias had been waiting for so long, but fortunately, Riser's city was great, and even if she waited for a week or more, it didn't matter since this place eased her heart, yet even so, her heart was still restless as she wished to meet him. 

Fortunately, she wasn't the only one who was restless since Latia Astaroth was also in the same situation. 

As they had been staying for so long and their situation was quite similar, they became closer to each other during this time. 

Then, suddenly, Sona came as if bringing good news. 

"Sona, is he going to meet me?" 

"Sorry, Rias." Sona apologized. "It seems that he is still quite busy." 

Rias felt like cold water was poured on her head once again, wondering what was wrong with her. 

But—

"Latia, come with me. Riser wants to meet you." 

"Eh?" Latia was surprised, thinking that she couldn't meet him, so this result was unexpected, and it brought a smile to her mouth. "Yes, Sona-sama." 

Still, Sona didn't leave and just told Latia to follow Tsubaki, who would lead her to Riser since there was still something that she needed to talk about with Rias. 

"Oh, right, Riser told me that he is also going to send help to your family." 

Only Rias didn't listen to Sona and just wondered what she should do.
