191 Tonight, it won't be peaceful

Nevertheless, as he felt happy with his reward and at how delicious his wine was, Riser realized that he had changed so much. 

In his previous life, would he ever think about killing people?

However, now, he even threatened someone with the life of their dearest, acting like a real villain. 

Still, strangely enough, he felt calm, and he felt happy for some reason. It was as if the bone that stuck in his throat after he ate a fish was gone. It felt so comfortable and gave him a sense of relief. He felt great and happy. 

If his peerage members weren't by his side, he might jump onto the table and start to dance, showing how happy he was at that moment. 

What was even better was that no one would think he was a culprit, and all of them would think that Vali was the killer as they would never think that he had the ability to kill Sirzech from a distance. 

Now, how did he make Vali follow his words and order Sirzech to let himself be killed?

It was all due to the power of his "Peto Peto no Mi." 

As he had explained before, the "Peto Peto no Mi" gave him the ability to order all living beings without them being unable to fight. If there was a disadvantage, he needed to put the collar that came from this ability, and they needed to hear his order so this power could work. 

However, all of those disadvantages had been erased by him. 

First, he put the collars from his "Peto Peto no Mi" ability by using his "Area of Invisibility." By using the "Area of Invisibility," Sirzech and Vali realized that they had been under his control as this ability made the collar couldn't be seen, smelled, touched, or noticed. 

Secondly, he had been developing this ability so he could use this ability remotely. Unlike the original, where the user needed to be close to the victim, he didn't need to do that since even if his victims were so far away, they couldn't escape from him. Moreover, due to "Telepathy Magic," he could give them an order through their mind directly, and he could also eavesdrop on their conversation through the connection he had with the collar. 

If there was something lacking, it was the fact that he couldn't see what they were watching, and he also needed to focus when he wanted to eavesdrop on their conversation. 

Still, this didn't mean that his ability was invincible, as there were many ways to communicate, such as by writing emails, texts, or even chats. There were many ways for them to escape his surveillance. 

Nevertheless, such a weakness couldn't be seen by others, especially when no one knew he had this ability. 

To be honest, there was no doubt if someone knew he had this ability, they would be extremely wary of him as he could control them, or they might feel that it might be better to kill him, but with his Demonic Power matched that of the true Lucifer, almost the majority of the supernatural beings could be controlled by his "Peto Peto no Mi" power. 

Even if there were some that could escape from this power, the number was limited. 

Still, Riser was glad that he had attacked the headquarters of the Grigori that day. 

[Your achievements are far better than what I have imagined.]

[Due to your exceptional achievements, you will receive five random rewards.]

...five?

[Yes.] 

[This is something worth celebrating, so do your best and be the greatest villain.]

"..." 

Was he a villain?

Among the others, he might be, but he didn't think so. 

Instead, he felt that he was a pacifist. 

He didn't care about losing or winning after all, nor did he care about the situation in the whole world. 

As long as he could live peacefully without any troubles, then he was satisfied. 

Nevertheless, the world wouldn't let him, and they wished to make him into a villain so the real protagonist could become the greatest existence in this world. 

Yet, he wouldn't allow that. 

Since the happiness of the protagonist chosen by the world was going to be his misfortune. 

Still, with all of the rewards that he had received, he realized that probably no one could kill him. Even if the whole world was destroyed, he believed that he could stay alive. 

If there was something that he lacked, it was probably firepower.

While Riser believed that he could destroy a giant country or even a continent, it might be a little hard for him to destroy the world. No, it should be possible for him, but there were several enemies that could match him. Nevertheless, they wouldn't be able to kill him, so he was okay. 

Still, as long as they wouldn't trouble him, he wouldn't do anything. 

Nevertheless, Sirzech wasn't the only one, as there were remaining people who were going to disappear from this world so he could have a good sleep. 

Then, with all of that, he decided to check his rewards. 

[Congratulations, you have received "Sword Talent," "Sun Breathing Technique," "Lightning," "Memo Memo no Mi (Complete Version)," and "Gutsu Gutsu no Mi (Complete Version)."]

Riser had to say his rewards were amazing, and none of them were useless. 

"Sword Talent" gave him the talent to master, develop, and train as the master of swordsmen, the pinnacle of all the swordsmen, which was suitable to be matched with his second reward, "Sun Breathing Technique," an amazing sword technique.

As for his third reward, "Lightning," he thought it gave him the ability to control lightning, but that wasn't the case. Instead, "Lightning" was the magic that allowed him to perceive information that could be recognized and directly used without intervention from the brain and nervous system in order to directly move the body and spirit. 

This might seem like a small reward, which wasn't comparable to the two previous rewards, but if one learned this third reward carefully, they would be able to achieve instant acceleration. 

Still, there was no doubt his fourth and fifth rewards were the richest. 

Devil Fruit. 

As he had said before, there were no weak devil fruits, and the two Devil Fruits that he received were examples of that. 

"Memo Memo no Mi (Complete Version)" might not have an attack power, but it is definitely powerful as it gave him the ability to manipulate memory. Knowing it, he didn't hesitate and ate this Devil Fruit, gaining the power to manipulate memory. 

Nevertheless, when he looked at his last reward, he thought that he often received a non-canon Devil Fruit. 

Gutsu Gutsu no Mi.

This Devil Fruit allowed him to turn his body into a blast furnace, making him into a Blast Furnace Human. 

Well, he was a devil, though, so it should be a Blast Furnace Devil. 

Yet, when he thought about this reward, he wondered whether his fate was to become a craftsman. Still, with this Devil Fruit, there was no need for him to create weapons or other artifacts manually with craft tools. Instead, he could produce all of those weapons or other artifacts inside his body. 

Suddenly, he realized that he had become a living factory somehow. 

Still, this Devil Fruit might not seem like much, but somehow, he felt the potential of this Devil Fruit was frightening, especially when it suited him much. 

However, as he was about to celebrate his happiness with his peerage members by having a party, someone suddenly called his phone. 

"Sona? What's wrong?" 

Riser frowned, wondering what was happening. 

"Dear, please come...." 

Her voice was choked by her cry and full of desperation. 

"..." 

While Riser was speechless at how Azazel, Michael, Serafall, and even Grayfia could be troubled by a group of small fries. 

"Ravel, prepare everyone." 

"Eh?" 

"Go to the Kuoh. Something happened there. I will go first." 

Riser thought that it seemed that the one who wished to die wasn't only Sirzech.
