387 Only excellence!

To live without regret, Riser thought there were still many things he wanted to do in his life, so he knew that he needed to win. 

Everyone was also affected by emotions, and they also didn't want to have regrets, so they did their best in everything. 

Nevertheless, such a thing needed to stop for a while, especially when Sona's "Rating Game" school was about to open. Unlike before, when her school was only followed by a few people, and most people only saw it as a charity or something. With Riser's support, this school had become much bigger, and Sona also knew while it was possible to make the "Rating Game" school for the low-class devil and the reincarnated devil, there were some adjustments that she needed to make to this school as those low-class and reincarnated devils weren't the only one that would join on this school. 

If it was before, Sona might get stubborn and wouldn't change no matter what, but she had become Riser's wife, and she also knew that there was something that she could do and couldn't do. 

To become a wife that matched Riser's status, she discussed her problem with Riser, who gave her an idea of what kind of school she should create. 

While the essence of this school didn't change as it allowed for the low-class devil and the reincarnated devils to join, as there was also a descendant of the high-class devil and other races to join her school, she changed her school with a concept of the strong got everything. 

"Discover Excellence!" 

This was the motto of Sona's school. 

It didn't matter what your status was, whether you were a noble, low-class devil, reincarnated devil, or one of the other races; what was important in this school was your excellence. 

There was no doubt the concept of this school was great, but at the same time, it was also given a chance for those who didn't have anything to achieve something. 

Yet, there was no doubt that Riser knew this school would be cruel, as those who didn't have the ability could only be pushed away, especially when this school tried to support a competition. 

By having a competition, there was no doubt that their strength and will would be tempered, and when they graduated, they became the best among the best. 

However, at the same time, those who didn't have the ability would only be pushed down and abandoned. 

Frankly, if it had been before, Sona might not have dared or even rejected such an idea, but she knew how cruel the world was. If one didn't have the ability or the will to try hard, then they could only be abandoned by the world, living an ordinary life. 

Nevertheless, Sona also understood that it was meaningless to train those who were unwilling. This was a "Rating Game" school, a place where one trained to become the best and champion during their youth. If a competition in the school had made them depressed and give up, then they might as well give up. 

Sairaorg, who was also partly involved in this school, also agreed with the concept of this school. The reason why he could stand up until now, even though he didn't have a talent for his Demonic Energy, was all due to his talent and his physical ability. He knew that even though he was underestimated, he was special. However, the reason why he could achieve all of this was because he was willing to work hard. He had a will, and he kept trying, so he found his talents. 

Adults might not be able to do this since they didn't have time as they also needed to work and provide for their families. 

However, the children were different. They had a lot of free time, chasing after what they wished, but having a dream and trying to achieve what they wished was a painful thing. 

If they couldn't even handle this pain, then they might as well give up. 

This was also probably the reason why the nobles were willing to send their descendants to this school. If this wasn't for this type of education, those nobles might as well have sent their descendants to their usual schools, as a school was nothing but a place for nobles to interact and make connections with each other. 

Yet, this school aims to make the best of the best. 

Only one could stand above all of them, and the rest could only become the stepping stones of the others. 

"What a spartan school..." 

"You don't like it?" 

Riser looked at Rossweisse, who was standing by his side as his bodyguard. At this moment, they were in one of the rooms at Sona's school, waiting for the entrance ceremony. Naturally, as Sona's wife, he was present. 

Rossweisse, who was also Sona's peerage member, did the same. 

However, as Sona was busy managing the opening of her school, Riser didn't bother his wife and stayed in his room within this school together with Rossweisse. 

As for why it was Rossweisse?

Naturally, if it was others, especially Xenovia, there was no doubt that they might mess around. 

So, there was no doubt among all those who could be trusted; it was only Rossweisse. 

Yet, was it true that Rossweisse wouldn't mess around?

Well, Rossweisse wouldn't do anything, but if she was pushed by Riser, she could only agree, right?

Still, to answer his question, she shook her head and said, "No, I agree with this type of education. We're all studying for a better future. If one wants to change their fate, they have to work and bleed more than anyone. They aren't nobles, and they don't have someone they can rely on except themselves. If they can't handle this hard work, then they might as well give up." 

Everyone came to this place to change their fate. 

They didn't want to become useless and became like those nobles in the future. 

If they didn't have a will to preserve, then they might as well give up. 

Rossweisse was like that in her childhood, as she didn't have a talent for her family's magic. She needed to work harder than anyone, sacrificing her youth for her future. Fortunately, she did this, or she might not be able to meet Riser. 

"Thanks for your hard work." 

"Thanks." 

Leaning on his shoulder, Rossweisse smiled and rubbed her cheek against his, feeling content and thought that her hard work was rewarded. Yet she knew that this wasn't the end, especially when the war was about to happen. 

Still, suddenly, the door of the room was knocked on. 

"....." 2x

Rossweisse and Riser looked at each other helplessly, but then someone opened the door. 

"Riser-sama, Rosseisse, did you do something perverted at the school?" 

Xenovia's head poked out from the gap of the house as she looked at them with a smile. 

"..." 2x

Still, whether Rossweisse or Riser thought that all the students in this school also needed to be taught common sense and etiquette, or else, they would become muscleheads like this stupid girl. 

"Xenovia-san, are you sure that it is okay to say something like that?" 

"Hehehe... it's okay. It's okay." 

Behind Xenovia, there was an elderly woman who wore a deep blue colored robe. 

"Grandma!" 

Watching this elderly woman, Rossweisse was so happy that she started to talk in her dialect. 

Yet, Riser was speechless. 

Was this her grandma?
