Chapter 22 Villain's Day Off, Heroine Comes To Visit!

[Host, you still have an additional reward.]

Riser who was about to sleep and have sweet dreams tonight was interrupted again by his system.

"Are there any more reward?" Asked Riser in confusion.

Didn't I only survive one plot today? But the system meowed again about rewards.

"Oh, could it be a reward from..."

[Host is right, it's the additional reward you got from stealing the protagonist's opportunity in the underground back then.]

"Then what are you waiting for? Open the reward!"

Riser opened his system interface while lying on the bed. The system was no longer fussy and showed him what additional rewards he had earned.

[Ding! You successfully stole the future Issei's opportunity. You gained god-level dancing skills! Congratulations host! You are a rich second generation who has the best dancing skills in the world.]

"...."

Riser didn't change his expression when he saw this reward, he even yawned and became sleepy.

"That's it? I thought it would be something nice like the Houshoku Haki before."

"But well... It will also come in handy in the upcoming birthday banquet."

By the way this reward he got after stealing that thing buried underground. Riser opened the drawer beside his bed and took out a gold necklace in the shape of a lion's head.

Looking at the necklace in his hand, this was the opportunity he stole from Issei. Since this was the protagonist's opportunity, naturally this gold lion's head necklace was not simple.

It was actually a key left behind by people in ancient times to open the Secret Ruins which contained a small pool of the Dragon King's blood. The Dragon King's blood will greatly help Issei to increase the power of his Dragon King Inheritance. As the successor of the Dragon King, Issei would naturally have a leap in combat power after getting this opportunity.

But it's a pity Issei won't get this opportunity, because the villain has stolen it first!

Riser laughed, it felt good to steal the protagonist's opportunity. Suddenly he had an idea to trick Issei using the necklace in his hand.

He could use this to make Issei stop being a man!

[Host, you're so evil.]

"I'm a villain, what do you expect?"

Riser rolled her eyes and smiled. "Besides, isn't the evil idea I'm thinking of still too soft? It won't kill Issei anyway."

It won't kill Issei, but you'll make his life miserable!

The system wants to say that, but let it also be good for preventing the awakening of the protagonist.

I'm just worried.

Can the host do well?

...

The next day.

Morning at Lucifuge house.

There was an argument between the grandfather and his granddaughter in the living room.

"Grandpa, Riser has helped our family's housing complex with a problem that we or others couldn't do. As people who receive help, we should know how to be grateful! Isn't this also one of the teachings emphasized in the Lucifuge family?!" Grayfia said angrily as she stood in front of her grandfather.

Grayfia's grandfather, Lord Lucifuge was currently shaking his head at his granddaughter. His old face looked cold and dignified hearing what his granddaughter said.

"Grayfia... I know you want to reward that boy from the Phenex family as a sincere thank you from our family for accepting his favor. But 50% of Lucifad's land is too much! You didn't even discuss the promise you made with your grandfather first."

"Discuss with grandpha?" Grayfia shook her head while smiling as if she had just heard a joke.

Lord Lucifuge frowned, his granddaughter was getting more rebellious as she grew up.

"Grandpa, did you forget that I own 80% of Lucifad's land rights? I didn't cut off your piece of land, I cut off my own piece of land as a reward that I will give to Riser. I know it's a bit excessive, but he deserves it after all he's done, even risking his own life to help me. So grandfather, even if you object, you can't stop me."

Grayfia spoke firmly, Lord Lucifuge pointed at Grayfia with his trembling finger.

"Grayfia... You... What ecstasy soup did that Phenex boy give you?"

"What nonsense are you talking about, grandpa! Do you suspect Riser gave me drugs or something?"

"Of course, after all you've never been this close to a man from another family. Grayfia, you're not in love with that Phenex boy, are you? Grayfia, remember grandfather has already chosen you a fiancé!"

Lord Lucifuge slapped the table after saying that in order to increase his momentum. He expected Grayfia to obey after he had been harsh, just like in the past.

But who is Grayfia? Oh, please she was no longer the little girl who was afraid of being scolded by her grandfather. Ever since her parents died when she was 8 years old, she had worked hard to obey her grandfather. She had sacrificed her childhood to focus on studying, learning, and learning so that she could run the Lucifuge company well. It was also to ease her grandfather's burden, and she had paid a lot.

I've paid a lot for this family...

I also want to have my own freedom, I don't want my future husband to be ruled by others.

Even my belongings, it's up to me what I use them for and who I give them to.

That's all my right.

Not the rights of the cloth people.

Grayfia looked at her grandfather with red and wet eyes, it was obvious that she was very emotional at the moment.

"Grayfia, listen, grandfather only wants the best for you. Even your fiancé, Issei is a good man. He already saved grandfather's life overseas with his outstanding medical skills back then. Issei also has a good hidden background... Grandfather knows that. So you shouldn't get too close to that Phenex boy, he's not comparable to Issei. Do you understand what grandfather is saying? Grayfia?"

Lord Lucifuge tried to persuade his granddaughter gently as he was worried that she might explode judging by her expression.

But alas, after Issei's name was mentioned, and compared to Riser.

Grayfia exploded.

"I don't! I don't understand what's good about that Issei! Grandpa, you insist on setting me up with that disgusting man? It seems like it wasn't me who drank the ecstasy soup, but you who drank it from Issei! You must have been tempted by Issei's background, even to the point of selling your own granddaughter for the family's profit!" said Grayfia angrily as she looked at her grandfather.

"Grayfia, you dare talk to grandfather like that!" Lord Lucifuge got up from his chair and want slapped his rebellious granddaughter.

But Grayfia acted faster, before her grandfather got up from the chair, she had already turned around and walked away from her grandfather.

Tears dripped from the corner of her eyes as she walked out of the house and into her car.

Looking at Grayfia's car that had already left the gate of the house, Lord Lucifuge sighed and sat down on the living room chair with a dark expression on his face.

He picked up the cell phone on the table and called someone.

...

Meanwhile, Riser was lazing around watching TV at home.

There was no plot today and there were still a few days before the next plot started. So Riser was enjoying his day off.

Villain also need time to relax, not keep thinking about how to mess with the protagonist and play tricks to get the heroine.

You might be wondering if Riser is a rich second-generation unemployed? Actually no. He also owns his own company, but he rarely comes to the company and prefers to let other people run the company. Unless something important happens that requires his presence at the company, he never takes the time to go to his company.

That's what his predecessor did.

What about Riser Phenex now?

Well I've been working hard to screw over the protagonist these past few days. Can't I enjoy my day off? Company or whatever, just think about it in the future.

At this moment, Riser suddenly heard his doorbell ring.

*Ding Dong*

"...."

Riser remained silent and watched the TV.

*Ding Dong*

The doorbell rang again.

"...."

Riser remained silent.

*Ding Dong*

*Ding Dong*

The doorbell rang many times, making Riser frown and feel annoyed of course.

He sighed, pressed the CCTV remote and quietly looked first to see who the person visiting his house was.

Looking at the two people standing in front of his door from the monitoring screen, he frowned.

[Huh? Sona and her grandfather, why did the two of them come to my residence? Villain are off today, please come back on another day.]

Riser pretended not to be home and ignored the doorbell.

On the other side.

In front of the door of Riser's private villa.

After hearing Riser's inner voice.

Sona who came with her grandfather pressed the doorbell harder.

"Riser, don't pretend you're not home! I know you're inside, open the door quickly!"

Sona gritted her teeth in annoyance.

Do you think I don't know you're pretending not to be home?

I know you're in there!

And you mean villain is on vacation? Even if you're on vacation, there's nothing wrong with opening the door to guests who come to your house!

Hey villain, open the door!

"Sona, it looks like young master Phenex really isn't home. Why not come back another day?" Sitri's old man asked his angry granddaughter.

He wondered what was wrong with his granddaughter?

On the way here you seemed to be in a good mood, but after getting here you became very angry.

Even if young master Phenex didn't open his door. It was probably because he wasn't at home or perhaps busy doing something that he didn't hear the doorbell ring.

"Grandpa, you were tricked! This guy is really inside and he's deliberately pretending not to be home!" Sona explained so that her grandfather wouldn't be fooled by the villain's tricks.

Sitri's old man sighed at what his granddaughter had said.

Granddaughter...

How did you know young master Phenex was inside and was pretending?

Are you an Esper?

Sitri's old man suspected that his granddaughter was suffering from the disease of excessive fantasizing that the youngsters sometimes experienced.

In the end Sona kept pressing the doorbell and her grandfather waited for his granddaughter to give up so that they could both leave afterwards.

But the door opened and Riser appeared in casual clothes in front of Sona and her grandfather.

"Miss Sona and Mr. Stri? Ah, sorry for opening the door so late. I just came from the bathroom. Please come in and sit down first."

Riser invited the two people in front of him with politeness and a gentle smile on his face.

"It's alright young master Phenex, after all it's also my grandson and I's fault for coming to your house without prior notice."

The old man Sitri appreciated the polite actions of the heir of Phenex, so he spoke kindly to the other party.

Seeing the handsome and polite young man in front of him, he felt that the heir of Phenex was not as bad as rumored.

It seemed like many people had misunderstood him.

Sure enough, the rumors were unbelievable.

Sona who previously had a sullen expression on her face, now immediately smiled as she looked at Riser who finally opened the door.

You said you came out of the bathroom? I can't believe it!

"Hello Riser, we meet again. Please just call me, Sona. We used to be classmates anyway, our relationship isn't bad either."

"Hahaha is that so? Yes, then I'll call you, Sona. Please both of you come in and sit down." Riser said with a handsome smile, but his heart was full of grievances.

[Is it just me or does Sona seem rather fawning over me? Well but if you want to be my dog licker, I don't mind. Sona, you are welcome to do so.]

Author note

I'm working on a Naruto fanfic with an inner voice theme on my pâtreon. Don't get me wrong, this doesn't mean I won't focus on the Riser books. My priority for Riser books is number one, while Naruto books are number two, and three for other books.

For those who are curious, you can check my pâtreon. There you will see a book titled "Naruto: Beautiful Kunoichi Hears My Inner Voice".

The MC in my new book is Eiji Seiya, a Transmigrator who is transported to the world of Naruto and coincidentally the heroine he first meets is Kushina Uzumaki! This is a story about the adventures of Eiji who becomes Naruto's stepfather and has to educate his cheap son.

Additional notes for Naruto fanfic:

1. Minato died long before Eiji was transferred to Naruto's world. So Kushina had widow status and there was nothing wrong if Eiji... Cough, cough.

2. I won't be releasing that book on webnovel anytime soon. So you have to wait for my pâtreon to have a lot of chapters for that book first. Of course if you want to read faster, you can join my pâtreon.
