Chapter 163 Coward

Arthur pointed at the armor. He said with a calm tone.

" He is not a perfect holder. His boost is only at the level 1. He is nowhere to handle strong people like heroes, angels, and devils. Even Vali is stronger than he."

Grayfia sighed. She knew Vali's power more than anyone. She is sure that Vali can defeat Issei without pressure.

" You are right, but current him is enough to handle small fries."

Arthur smiled.

" Indeed, what you are saying is the truth. Issei probably can beat those called young masters."

Back to Rias side.

Rias looked at Riser with hatred because Riser used a dirty method. He directly kidnapped Kiba and Koneko to coerce her. Akeno snorted.

" Riser, where is your pride? You are using a such despicable method to force us."

Riser grinned. He wasn't concerned with so-called dignity. He only wanted to win over Rias. Of course, he already planned this prior the game.

Rias clenched her fists. She asked with a cold tone.

" What do you want?"

Riser pointed at her. He said proudly.

" You."

Rias gritted her teeth. She didn't expect such development. Akeno couldn't take anymore. She activated her lightning magic. Unfortunately, Yubelluna blocked her attack. Riser hugged her waist. He laughed.

" Is that it?"

Akeno's gentle face slowly faded away. Her magic circle grew bigger. Riser clicked his tongue.

He placed Koneko and Kiba in front of him. Kiba coughed.

" Akeno hit me. I can take it."

Koneko nodded. Akeno showed hesitation, but she braced herself. She continued to channel. Thankfully, Rias stopped her. She closed her eyes with despair.

" I agree your condition. Now release my peerages."

Riser sneered. He threw Koneko and Kiba to them. He slowly flew to Rias with his flaming wings. Rias said slowly.

" We surrender."

The voice came out.

" The winner is Riser Phenex."

Riser touched Rias's chin. He rubbed her hair and sniffed.

" What a pleasant smell."

Rias trembled a little. However, she didn't resist him. Riser laughed.

" Then let's meet at our engagement banquet."

Seven days later.

Rias combed her with sadness because nobody opposed their marriage. She felt despair and fear.

" I want to go back."

Akeno who was next to her, said seriously.

" We can't. The war will happen between your and their households."

Rias showed her helplessness. She looked outside the window.

That night.

The banquet was going smoothly. Sir Zechs looked at Phenex household leader with a bright smile. He walked towards with elegant steps. The leader bowed.

" Long time no see, lord. This is such a good day."

Sir Zechs sipped his wine. He smiled softly.

" Indeed. I even forgot my job."

The leader laughed loudly. The other clan heads watched him with envy because he forged a good relationship with one of the 4 satans.

The leader called.

" Riser, come here. He is your future brother-in-law."

Riser bowed with respect. He said politely.

" Hello."

Sir Zechs scanned him. He smiled, but said nothing because he saw his dirty method. Even so, he didn't stop him.

Click, creak*

Suddenly, the main door opened itself. The guests focused on the door. A man with a gorgeous armor came in with 4 silhouettes. Sir Zechs was surprised to see him. He said lightly.

" Lord Lucifer?"

This remark attracted others attention. Especially Lord Phenex looked at him with admiration. Arthur walked towards them with a carefree attitude. Sir Zechs noticed Arthur's change. His face and aura was changed even though he contained Lucifer's aura. Lord Phenex said with a flustered look.

" Lord, I never thought you would come to this humble banquet."

Arthur gave him a face. He smiled.

" Of course, I would come here. After all, this is my niece's engagement."

Rias's eyes dimmed when she heard this. Akeno showed her disappointment. Riser smiled brightly.

" It is my honor, sir."

Arthur raised his eyebrows. He laughed as his face turned cold. A strong aura filled with murderous intent surged out. Lord Phenex's face changed when he felt it. He asked.

" What do you mean, sir?"

Arthur looked at Riser with a frosty look.

" He cheated in the game. If it was fair, I would have agreed this engagement. Regretfully, he didn't win by fair means."

Lord Phenex turned around. His face was filled of anger. He shouted.

" Riser, what he is saying, is this true?"

Riser couldn't say anything. Lord Phenex directly exploded with anger.
