261 War? OK!

"...." 

The elderly man was stunned and couldn't even say anything. 

Still, the rest didn't say anything, as many of them were unfamiliar with this elderly man, and they wondered what was wrong with the Gremory House to let such a stranger enter this venue. 

"Who the hell are you? Get the fuck out of here." 

"....." 

Michael, who was stunned for a moment, quickly coughed hard and said awkwardly, "Riser-kun, he is Odin, the Chief God of Norse Myth." 

Still, hearing that introduction, many individuals were stunned as they didn't expect Odin to come. 

Even Odin, who was stunned, also started to get proud and wondered how Riser was going to react after hearing his name, yet he had to say...

'He is so strong...' 

God and the Original Satans have passed away. 

Whether the angel, fallen angel, or devil, they should be at their weakest, right?

Yet, the truth?

Facing the aura that was emitted from Riser, Odin knew many gods in the Norse myth would directly bow down. 

However, Odin didn't fear Riser, especially when he knew how bad the situation of the angel, the fallen angel, and the devil were.

"Is that so?" Riser nodded, then looked at Odin and said, "If you can't respect me, then you should leave." 

"...." 

Riser's answer didn't change, and it made everyone at a loss at his guts, but at the same time, it also made them giggle somehow as they felt Odin wasn't as scary as they thought to be. 

Facing this ridicule, Odin also released his aura, yet compared to Riser?

"..." Odin. 

Odin might not be weak, but Riser was stronger. 

Still—

"Are you sure to treat me like this?" The joking attitude and nonchalant attitude of the elderly god disappeared as Odin stared at Riser blankly. "Don't you want to have an alliance with us?" 

"This place isn't your Nine Worlds. This is the Underworld. Our world, and we have our own rules here. If you can't respect our rule, then what is the use of the alliance with such an existence?" 

"Our rule?" Odin snorted. "Isn't that your rule?" 

"That's right." Riser nodded. 

Odin frowned and asked, "Aren't you too arrogant to think that everyone will follow your rule?" 

"Of course, as I am Lucifer." 

Riser said those words as if they were the most natural. 

"You are a fake!" 

"Even so, I am chosen as the Lucifer, and it isn't me who is arrogant, but it is you." Riser stared at Odin and asked, "Do you think you can get away after showing such disrespect, Odin?" 

"Weren't you the one who disrespected me?" 

"Are you so old that you start to have dementia that you need me to remind you every time?" 

"...." Odin. 

There was no trace of respect, and at that moment, if Odin pressed further, Riser would directly attack him. 

Odin could even feel that Riser was serious, and this surprised him as he hadn't expected Riser to be this aggressive. 

Yet, did Riser think that he would be scared?

"...do you want to bring the devil, fallen angel, and angel to the ruin with you, brat?" 

Everyone was startled by Odin's words as they knew Odin was serious. 

Would they dare to fight against the Norse myth?

While they didn't fear the Norse myth, they knew this myth wasn't an easy opponent, and many would die, making them frown, thinking Riser was too reckless, yet—

"Hahaha...." 

Riser laughed. 

"...." Everyone. 

"Ruin? How funny. Pagan Gods who can only huddle together in the snow country after being swept away by our religion think that he can ruin us?" Riser stared at Odin and said, "There is no need for the devils, fallen angels, and angels to fight. 

"Only me against all of you.

"Didn't the Norse Myth be famous for their love for war? I will kill you here, then start to destroy the Norse Myth after this, so let's see who brings ruin to whom?" 

"..." 

Everyone stared at Riser blankly. He stood alone in front of everyone as they dared to have a war against the Norse Myth. The others looked at each other before they smiled as they followed him. 

"Geez, you are too reckless." Michael sighed but stood by Riser's side. 

"I will follow you." Baraqiel also stepped forward but stood slightly behind Riser. 

"I will support Riser-chan~!" Serafall said happily. 

His peerage members and everyone in this place also stood at Riser's back as they stared at Odin dangerously. 

"Odin-sama!" 

A figure with battle armor, who had been following Odin, quickly stood in front of Odin, trying to protect him with trembling legs. She didn't expect that everything would turn into something like this and suddenly she was about to die!

She didn't want to die! 

She hasn't got a boyfriend yet! 

Yet, what could she do?

At this moment, she didn't think that she could stay alive! 

"Is it a fight?" 

"Count on me." 

Suddenly, two figures were seen from the entrance. 

Ajuka and Falbium made their entrance. 

Falbium aside, Ajuka smiled in Azazel's direction, but similarly, Azazel also glanced at Ajuka's direction. 

"....." 

Odin fell in silence as he was also startled by their momentum. At this moment, he knew even if the devil, fallen angel, and angel had lost their Gods and the original Satans, they were still as strong as ever. 

Would he have a war against them?

"...do you really want to go to war? Aren't we here to make an alliance with each other so we can have a peaceful life?" 

"Once again, it was you who provoked me." Riser stared at Odin with a blank stare. "And yes, our alliance is made for peace, but we won't beg for that peace. Do you think you can use us for your convenience as long as you become our ally? Don't get ahead of yourselves." 

Why did Odin wish to make an alliance with the three alliances?

It was because Odin had his own problems! 

By becoming the alliance of the three factions, it was as if the three factions would owe a favor to the Norse Myth. By then, whatever Odin asked for, they would need to comply. Naturally, as the Norse Myth entered this alliance, it would benefit the three factions. 

Yet, was it worth it?

What was the problem that was encountered by the Norse myth?

If Riser had to say, it would be the Khaos Brigade and also the evil Gods that wouldn't accept this alliance. 

The Khaos Brigade aside, as he had controlled it, the evil Gods were rather troublesome. 

However, Riser didn't fear them, and he felt that he might as well annihilate the majority of the population within the Nine Worlds and kill them secretly in the name of the Khaos Brigade or the evil Gods before making the Norse Myth submit to the three factions. 

Especially Odin and Thor. 

Riser had already planned to kill the two most powerful Gods in the Norse Myth. 

"I might hate to fight, but if I have to fight, I will never lose." 

Odin stared at Riser and knew that Riser had told the truth. If he really provoked him again, then it was over, so—

"Okay, let's make peace." 

Odin raised his hands, showing he had given up as he knew he couldn't afford this war. While he didn't think that the Norse Myth would lose, he also didn't think they could win either. Even if they won, he could imagine how brutal their consequences would be. 

Still, there was something that Odin hadn't expected.

"Apologize." 

"...what?" 

"Apologize to me first before we can continue our talk." 

"...." 

Odin was speechless, wondering whether Riser was serious, but he could tell that Riser was serious. He wanted to complain that Riser was too small-minded, but he could only sigh and apologize. "I apologize for saying a rude remark beforehand." 

"Good." Riser nodded with a gentle smile. "Then, let's talk about peace later. My wife's "Rating Game" is about to start." 

"Okay, okay." 

It seemed... Riser Lucifer wasn't that bad? 

Odin thought when he saw Riser treated him gently, unlike before when Riser was ready to go do-or-die battle. 

Odin laughed as he followed Riser, standing side by side, laughing as if they were best friends. 

Watching Odin, who followed him happily, Riser smiled as he glanced at Odin's eyepatch and made his decision instantly. 

"...." Everyone. 

Azazel sighed in relief and was about to join, but—

"You can't join, Azazel-kun." Ajuka smiled and then closed the door. 

"....." 

Looking at the closed door, Azazel opened his lips as he clenched his fists, but in the end, he let out a helpless sigh. Still, when he thought about a certain someone, he knew he needed to meet Riser. 

However, were the expressions they showed on the surface really the truth?
