Chapter 317: Let’s dominate the world!

Riser made a pact with Meredith Ordinton.

While he was often low-key, he didn't mind being in the spotlight.

Moreover, he also knew that this girl loved vanity, and for him, it was the easiest way for him to give.

Especially with her Sacred Gear, it was even easier.

The moment Meredith became Riser's contracted magician, her life changed.

The royal family that contracted before changed and made her into part of royalty.

Her status on the Golden Dawn was also so high that she was close to becoming the leader.

Everyone fawned over her, and she gained the life that she had never dreamed of before.

"What do you think, Meredith?"

On the tallest building in the United Kingdom, the Shard, three people gathered together on the top floor.

Riser bought this building directly and made it into his house.

"It's great, Riser-sama!"

Meredith lay on his chest happily as she got everything that she had always dreamed of.

Or rather, she wondered whether everything was a dream since everything happened so fast!

Still, she knew that everything was because of him.

He was the one who found him.

He was the one who believed in him.

He was the one who gave her everything.

As long as it was for him, she would do anything.

Still, if possible, she wanted to sit on his lap, but she knew that she couldn't, especially with the current strongest dragon sitting there. It didn't matter as she could sit on his lap later at midnight.

Yet, at the same time, she didn't expect that her Sacred Gear would be so powerful.

She thought that it was just a Holy Nail, a powerful nail that could stab people. While it was powerful, that's it. If there was something special about it, it had the effect of making people stick into a place and unable to walk as they were nailed by it.

However, that wasn't the case.

It had a powerful ability, especially to manipulate people.

Yes, she could control all the people in this world and made her become her loyal slave.

The power was amazing, and it was also because of this she knew that she needed Riser's protection.

If someone knew that she had this power, it wouldn't be weird that she would be killed, brainwashed, trapped, or controlled.

She might seem like an overreaction, but as she had been living on this side of the world, she had seen many things. It was also due to this that even if she knew that her origin was royalty, she never forced herself and acted like a child so she could be acknowledged, as she knew how cruel and dirty royalty could be.

It was also because of this that she gave up without expecting anything and just lived without expecting anything.

However, her meeting with him changed everything.

He knew her worth, and he was also the one who excavated her from the dirty mud, exposing her true worth like a diamond.

Still, she had gotten everything, whether it was status or wealth, so right now, she wondered whether there was something that she could do for him.

"Riser-sama, I have controlled most of the members of the Golden Dawn, governments, nobles, royalty, armies, etc."

Or rather, she had almost controlled the whole United Kingdom with her power.

In the original story, she also had done this, but she wasn't low-key. Instead, like a child who wanted to be seen and acknowledged by many, she caused trouble everywhere so all the people would put all their attention on her.

However, this time, it was different since Riser was right beside her.

He taught her everything, whether it was to control people, gain power, and many others. He didn't hold back and educated her on everything.

If there was someone that she trusted the most, it would be Riser, and like a child who wished to be praised by their parents, she wished to do something to him.

"There is no need for you to do anything. You only need to become stronger. That's what you need to do." He patted Meredith's head with a smile. Still, he told the truth.

Despite Meredith's Sacred Gear being powerful, he didn't need her help that much to achieve his goal. He could do anything by himself, and there was no need for her to do anything. Frankly, he felt a little guilty for using this girl.

However, even if he didn't use her, he knew that someone would use her.

He might as well have taken her by his side, and he was sure that Meredith knew that he came for this power of hers, but she didn't mind since it wouldn't be weird for someone to have an unconditional attraction and love.

Their relationship was different from a parent who gave their unconditional love to their children.

Instead, it was because he sought after her power that she knew he would be by her side no matter what.

That was why she would give him her everything.

So—

"By the way, I have heard that you have a little problem with the Pendragon House, Riser-sama?"

"Little problem?" Riser chuckled. "I don't even count them as trouble." In his mind, the Pendragon House was as good as a bug, which he had seen on the corner of the street where he walked.

As long as it didn't bother him, he wouldn't even bother to glance.

Unfortunately, sometimes, a human is just ignorant.

"Still, they have annoyed you, after all, so it doesn't matter if I give them a little trouble, right?"

"What are you planning to do?" Riser asked curiously.

"Hehe... it's a secret~!" Meredith stuck out her tongue cutely.

"Cheeky, aren't you?" Feeling helpless, he flicked her forehead.

"It hurts~!"

Even though it didn't hurt, she wanted to show how cute she was by acting like this.

How fake!

Yet, it didn't matter since she was cute.

Still, somehow, Meredith reminded him of Rias, but due to her small stature, she should be like Ravel.

However, with Meredith controlling the majority of everything, whether it was the economy or the army in the United Kingdom, there was no doubt a nightmare was going to come to the Pendragon house.

"You don't want to follow me?"

"I will follow you after I have prepared my present."

After making a pact and teaching Meredith many things, Riser didn't plan to stay any longer, especially when he was quite busy. Even if he wanted to escape with all of his work, he knew that he couldn't do it. He might be lazy, but he wasn't irresponsible, and it was the reason why everyone trusted him.

Raising her bangs, he kissed her forehead, then patted her head gently. "Don't do anything dangerous."

"U-Um..." Meredith blushed, but her heart was beating so fast, and she felt so happy!

"But it's okay, isn't it? You have given me a new power, after all. With this power, I can even go to you whenever I am in danger, Riser-sama."

With the power of "Link," Riser shared the power of "Warp Warp no Mi" with Meredith so it could help her to run away.

"Well, that's true. With me, you don't need to fear anything.

"Um."

"See you later, Meredith."

"See you~!"

As he teleported with Ophis, he went for his next second goal.

Nevertheless, Meredith has made up her plan, and she is going to give hell to those who oppose Riser.

"I need to work hard!"

Clenching her small, pink fists, Meredith's goal was to dominate the world and give it to Riser!
