Chapter 28 - Suppressing Riser's Peerage

"Watch your words, burnt chicken."

With his Stand firmly pressing down on Riser's head, Hiro casually glanced to his right.

Akeno and Rias looked puzzled at Riser's behavior, clearly not understanding what had happened.

Grayfia, however... stared directly above Riser's head, as if scanning the surroundings.

Hiro's mouth twitched slightly at the sight.

So, Grayfia. Besides being a Maou, a maid, a perception manipulator, and a telepath... she's also a Stand user?

Seeming to sense his thoughts, Grayfia withdrew her gaze from Riser and nodded slightly at him.

You're thinking correctly, young man.

Hiro: ...Maybe I should go look at Morioh Town.

"Damn it! Damn it!"

Naturally, Riser, head pressed down, was furious.

The powerful magic within him burst out as flames, trying to break free from the invisible pressure on his head.

Bang! Bang!

"What the hell is this thing!"

The scorching heat rustled the documents on Rias's table, ignited the wooden walls and floor, and even made Asia, an ordinary human, uncomfortable.

Fortunately, Hiro noticed in time and erected a protective magic barrier around himself and Asia. The girl's discomfort eased.

Even without formal instruction, Hiro could convert magic into various forms of physical interference, relying only on his memory of previous demonstrations.

"Thank you, Hiro-kun."

Asia softly acknowledged the invisible barrier, warmth rising in her chest.

"Ara ara, did you do this, Nanamiya-kun?"

Akeno looked at him with undisguised surprise.

Who else could it be? Does Asia look like she could do this?

Meeting Akeno's gaze, Hiro replied casually, giving no further explanation.

Even so, the scene was enough to make Rias, Akeno, and the others speculate wildly.

I previously thought his strength was average, and even reincarnated as a devil, he couldn't possibly match Riser Phenex. I misjudged him~~

Rias's gaze lingered between Riser and Hiro. A pang of regret hit her-had she noticed earlier, she wouldn't have let go of such an excellent servant.

Even agreeing to his initial request... wouldn't have been a big deal.

Excluding family background, Hiro's character, etiquette, and social skills were far superior to Riser Phenex, the young master from a prestigious family.

Now, even his strength surpassed Riser's.

The choice was clear.

In the Underworld, it wasn't unusual for a devil king and a servant to marry; it was common.

Originally, Rias had entertained the thought, but...

He wouldn't agree to become my servant.

Rias sighed inwardly.

"Nanamiya-kun... unexpectedly powerful."

A slight hint of excitement appeared on Koneko's otherwise emotionless face.

Even her eyes seemed friendlier, likely considering Hiro an ally due to Riser's misLuck.

"Nanamiya-kun, shouldn't we release Riser-sama first? No matter what, he is the President's fiancé."

Kiba Yuuto, after a brief pause, voiced the suggestion.

Whose side are you on exactly?

Glancing at the handsome blond man opposite, Hiro turned to the real decision-maker.

"Rias?"

"Let him go for now."

A slight smile graced her face as she nodded.

You said it yourself...

Hiro shrugged and silently canceled the manifestation of the golden humanoid figure.

As soon as the Stand disappeared, Riser, hair disheveled, clothes in tatters, sprang up explosively. Bloodshot eyes glared fiercely at Hiro.

"Damn monkey!!!"

But Riser didn't charge recklessly.

He summoned a several-meter-square orange-red magic circle behind him, filled with shadowy female devil figures.

Pointing at Hiro beside Asia, he stepped back, brimming with murderous intent.

"All of you, go together and kill that human male for me!"

"Yes!" X14

The fourteen servants didn't hesitate. They drew weapons and readied signature magic, prepared to attack the calm human male.

"Riser! What do you think you're doing in my territory?!"

Rias's voice rang sternly, imposing.

Akeno and Koneko surged with magic power; Kiba Yuuto conjured a demonic sword, ready for battle.

Suddenly, a vast magic erupted from between the two sides-

Boom!

Unlike before, the gust carried no heat, only raw power.

Rias, Akeno, and the others felt their hearts jolt.

They instinctively narrowed their eyes, then closed them against the gale.

Nanamiya-kun?!

Peeking through a small gap, Rias felt pure horror.

How could a human possess such immense magic?!

This was on a completely different scale from high-class and ultimate-class devils-a Maou-level power! It could rival even Serafall-sama!

Bang~ Bang~ Bang~

Crack~ Crack~ Crack~

Impact sounds and splintering wood echoed as the figures previously in sight vanished simultaneously.

Less than two seconds later, the gale subsided. Rias and the others opened their eyes.

The scene before them was shocking:

All sixteen people were pinned firmly to the wooden floor by invisible pressure.

Burn marks from Riser's earlier outburst left black streaks on their faces and arms, making them look utterly disheveled.

And the cause of all this was Hiro, sitting calmly beside Asia, surrounded by immense magic power.

After a long silence, Rias looked at him with a complicated expression.

"Nanamiya, you..."
