C24 - My Inner Voice Heard By Heroines
🕑 Added 2023-03-12 06:54:13 +0000 UTC
In the living room.
Three people were sitting, one man and two women.
Riser sat alone and in front of him were Rias and Grayfia who sat side by side at a considerable distance from each other.
It was obvious that the two were not on good terms, Rias even looked at Grayfia in the corner of her eyes with annoyance and looked at Riser with an angry look as if asking "What is Grayfia doing here? Do you want to have an affair if I don't come here now? Hmm?" was what the look in her eyes said.
Riser understood the meaning of Rias' harsh gaze, but he pretended not to understand and sat quietly before saying, "You two want me to make tea or drink something else?"
"No Riser, I don't want to trouble you."
"I don't like tea and I don't like drinking anything else either!"
Grayfia answered softly and humbly, while Rias sounded unreasonable.
Riser and Grayfia looked at Rias.
If you don't like everything, what do you like to drink? You've never had a drink in your life?
Rias's face reddened slightly in embarrassment, she realized that what she said earlier was wrong.
This all happened because she just wanted to refuse a drink, but seeing Riser and Grayfia talking intimately, she got a little out of hand.
Riser shook his head, he looked at Grayfia and asked with a smile. "You said you wanted to keep your promise?"
Grayfia was glad that Riser spoke to her first instead of talking to her fiancé.
"Yes, Riser. This is for you." Grayfia said as she took out a piece of paper from the document pouch she was carrying and handed it to Riser.
Riser took the paper and read it.
While Riser was reading, Rias who saw all this frowned.
Feeling ignored like this made her very uncomfortable, she glared at Grayfia out of the corner of her eye.
Obviously this was all the fault of the silver-haired woman sitting beside her, she was flirting with her fiancé thus making Riser ignore her even more.
Looking at Riser who was reading with a small smile on his face, she wondered what made that man happy?
It seemed like he and the silver-haired woman made a business deal or something.
This was the first time Rias saw the other side of Riser who was doing business.
Grayfia ignored Rias' hostility, she just stared at the man in front of her with anticipation.
Was he satisfied with the gift she gave?
Riser finished reading and nodded at Grayfia. His expression looked pleased and said, "Thank you Grayfia, you kept your promise."
"Of course! This is my gift to you. If you need my company's cooperation in the future, you can also contact me anytime." Grayfia said gently and very kindly to Riser.
This scene is like a woman wanting to win a man's heart!
Rias is feeling the crisis!
No wonder Riser seemed to like this silver-haired woman, it turns out that this bitch licked him with good things like profits in business!
There is also her appearance that is no less beautiful than her, and the way the silver-haired woman treats Riser is also very gentle.
Who is the man who can stand being attacked by such a woman?
Comparing herself to Grayfia, Rias felt she was really going to lose and become the woman left behind.
She really had to counterattack Riser as soon as possible!
After Riser and Grayfia had a few conversations about business. Grayfia got up from her seat and said, "That's it Riser, I need to get back to my company."
"Uh, you're leaving so soon?" Asked Riser reluctantly.
Grayfia also seemed reluctant but she glanced at Rias out of the corner of her eye
"Yes... I don't want to disturb you and Miss Rias' time. It seems like she also has something she wants to talk to you about. I'm leaving now Riser, you don't need to escort me to the front of the house."
"Okay, be careful on the road."
Grayfia nodded at Riser, she also didn't forget to say goodbye to Rias.
"Miss Rias, I'm leaving. Please enjoy your time with your fiancé."
The last sentence was said with a thin, cold smile that only Rias could see.
The silver-haired woman also seemed to have the expression of a winner.
Obviously she did that on purpose to provoke her!
Rias held back the anger in her heart. If she scolded the silver-haired woman in front of Riser, she knew it would only make her image in front of Riser bad.
She could only force a smile and said, "Oh, okay. Be careful on the road Miss Grayfia."
The two of them were actually not close enough to call each other by their first names, but because of the silent animosity created between them.
The two forgot about politeness and called each other by their first names. Outsiders might misunderstand that the two of them had a good relationship, but only the two of them knew what was really going on.
It's a tacit understanding with an enemy!
But still...
Rias felt extremely disadvantaged in her current situation.
After Grayfia left, only two people remained in the living room.
Rias took a breath, she looked at Riser doubtfully before asking. "Riser, what is your relationship with that Grayfia Lucifuge? You two seem to be quite close."
Riser frowned looking at Rias in front of him.
"We're both friends. So, what did you come here for?"
"You... Can you speak nicely to me?" Rias bit her lip in annoyance and sadness.
You treated that silver-haired woman so well before, but why did you treat your fiancé so badly?
And shouldn't I be the one angry here for seeing you so close to another woman even though you already have me as a fiancé?
Dog man!
Riser had an indifferent expression on his face, he looked at Rias playfully.
He walked up to Rias step by step and stood right in front of her. Due to the height difference, Riser had to look down slightly to see the red-haired woman's face.
"Riser... Y-You, what are you doing? Even if we're engaged, it's still too soon to..."
Rias' voice grew smaller, her face flushed and confused as she stared at Riser's handsome face very closely.
The two of them were so close as if they could kiss at any time!
Rias' heart was beating very fast, making her very nervous.
Would she be kissed on the lips by Riser?
Then after that would she be pushed down by Riser?
She's... She's not ready yet!
She wanted to scream and push Riser back.
But she found Riser's blue eyes looked cold as they stared into hers.
It was rather frightening that it made it difficult for her to speak and move.
She just stood in front of Riser like a statue as she stared at his face.
Riser sneered.
"Get your dirty mind out of the way, you think I'll do what you think? You're so narcissistic, Rias."
"I..." Rias was about to argue because she was so confident in her appearance, but she still had trouble speaking when she saw Riser's cold gaze.
Why are you treating me like this?!
Rias didn't understand why Riser had this kind of attitude towards her.
It wasn't like this before...
She originally came here to ask Riser out on a date with her, not only to get to know each other, but she also did this to make Riser obsess over her again like before and stay away from other women.
Especially that silver-haired woman, she wanted Riser to stay away from that woman for her.
She was confident that as long as she took the initiative, Riser who had been ignoring her lately would come back to her like before.
But now what was happening? It did not seem to fit the scenario she had envisioned.
Riser could roughly guess what Rias was thinking right now from her facial expression and eyes.
This silly woman really didn't understand what she had done wrong all this time?
It seemed like he needed to give her a hint.
"You previously asked if I could speak well to you, right? Nod your head to answer." Riser commanded coldly.
Rias unconsciously nodded her head in response. Her heart continued to beat rapidly.
Huh? Why did I obey his orders?!
Rias was confused with herself.
Riser continued.
"The answer is because of the way you used to treat me before I stopped being your dog licker that you always rejected."
"I-that..."
Rias panicked, she of course remembered that. For three years Riser had treated her very well, but she had always rejected him. At first she was uncomfortable continuing to reject Riser and felt guilty, but because Riser's pursuit of her was so long lasting. She began to develop a habit of rejecting Riser.
Habits are really scary, making people not realize how wrong your habits are.
It didn't matter if it was a good habit.
But she knew the habit of rejecting Riser was bad.
And she only really realized it now!
"I... Sorry... Riser, before I..."
"You unconsciously developed the habit of rejecting me, right?"
Looking at Riser's increasingly cold gaze.
Rias' body trembled, she panicked, feared, and felt guilty.
I used to treat Riser badly for three years.
Now that Riser stopped being my dog licker and started being indifferent to me, in just a few days I couldn't stand it and questioned Riser.
Anyone who sees this will laugh because of how ridiculous I am, right?
I'm a bad woman...
Seeing Rias with a downcast expression and not daring to look at his face, Riser laughed and shook his head.
Rias became even more guilty at Riser's laughter, she bit her lip until it bled and looked at Riser with eyes filled with autumn water that would spill out at any moment.
"Riser, I'm sorry! I know I was wrong... I just realized it now, I'm a bad woman. But! But! Please give me a chance, okay?" Rias pinched Riser's shirt with both hands and pleaded.
"Hahaha! Rias, Rias... You're weird. Didn't you dislike me before? Why are you bothering want to have something with me now? I even wanted to cancel the engagement with you before, but you refused instead."
"I've always wondered why you changed your mind back then? Was it because of Issei's sudden arrival who wanted to chase you and elope with you? You wanted to use me as your shield?"
Riser smiled disdainfully at Rias.
Rias shook her head quickly and added frantically.
"No, no, you misunderstood! I swear I didn't use you as a shield back then! And I didn't want to cancel the engagement with you either..."
"Recently I realized that, it's actually not bad to be engaged to you. You're a good man, so I'm starting to reconsider what I think of you."
"No other man has treated me as well as you before, Riser. So I'm also... Starting to like you a little."
What Rias said was half-true and half-lie. She lied because she didn't tell Riser that she changed her mind about him because she heard his inner voice.
And recently she had also started getting more and more attracted to him because of hearing his inner voice.
At the urging of the other heroines who kept wooing Riser, she was insecure and felt worried that something would be stolen from her.
That's why she started taking the initiative on Riser, but she didn't know if she loved Riser or not.
She was still confused about her feelings, but she knew she didn't hate Riser and liked him more than a casual friend. After all, with Riser's pursuit of her for the previous three years, there was no way she would be unaffected back then. It was just that she had developed a bad habit of rejecting Riser and was beginning to regret it now.
Riser narrowed his eyes observing Rias' expression and eyes well as she said that.
At least he could see regret that wasn't fake on her face, but he knew this woman was still confused.
Honestly if it was another woman who wasn't the heroine. They would have already fallen in love with him because being chased by him for three years, the other party could see how much love he had for the other party. Although being a dog licker makes you looked down upon by some people, but if you are a normal woman you will definitely be moved and inevitably fall in love.
Especially if the man who becomes a dog licker is handsome, rich, and treats you well even if it's a bit excessive. But most women will eventually fall in love with a man like that!
So what's wrong with Rias that she has so much confusion in her heart?
Well it seems that it's also because Rias is the heroine, and she was the first heroine in the original work.
Riser himself didn't know what was special about that, but he knew it wasn't simple to make Rias really fall in love with him.
Unless you have a protagonist halo that reduces people's IQ and makes the heroine easily fall in love with you. Unlike Issei in the original work who could make Rias fall in love with him easily within a few chapters. Riser can only use his own handsome face and charm to make Rias slowly fall in love with him.
Riser was somewhat dissatisfied with this, but what could he do but go his own way to conquer the heroine?
So far the heroine who was most inclined towards him was Grayfia whom he had helped with her company's problems.
And as for Rias, he seemed to have to use a trick he had seen in certain villain novels to conquer her.
At this moment, Riser made an expression of disbelief at what Rias said.
He looked at the red-haired woman indifferently.
"Y-You don't believe me?"
Riser did not answer Rias' question.
At this moment, Rias felt her heart filled with discomfort, she knew Riser not trust her.
Had Riser given up on her when he wanted to break off the engagement with her back then?
Rias felt sad and wanted to cry, but she wouldn't give up!
Thinking back to Riser pursuing her for three years and always being rejected by her. Rias suddenly had the idea that she could make Riser fall in love with her again by doing what Riser had done for the previous three years.
It's basically like the plot in the novel "Chasing Husband to the Crematorium". Rias had read this novel and she felt she could replicate what the heroine did in that novel.
Rias's eyes that were originally filled with autumn water were now looking at Riser firmly and there was a beautiful smile on her face.
[What's with this red-haired woman? You look like someone who just had an epiphany.]
[Rias, you're not crazy, are you?]
I'm not crazy!
Rias shouted in her heart, she ignored putting aside Riser's inner voice and looked directly into his eyes.
"Riser!!!"
"Yes?" Riser frowned at hearing the red-haired woman shout so loudly.
Okay, Rias.
You must be crazy.
"Riser, I will chase after you and make you fall in love with me again! I don't care if you give me a chance or not."
"Even if you reject me, I'll keep chasing you until you accept me! You just wait, I can definitely do it."
Rias smiled, she was happy to see Riser's surprised expression. She seized this opportunity to pull Riser's collar towards her and slapped his lips quickly. After that she immediately let go and ran out of the house.
She could feel her face getting very hot at that moment, it was too embarrassing so she ran away from Riser's house right away.
"...."
Riser held his lips that had just been kissed in confusion. Just as he wanted to ask Rias, he realized that the red-haired woman had already run away.
He could even hear the sound of her car getting farther away from his house.
"Hey system, did you do something to Rias?"
[I didn't, host. Please don't slander me. Besides, shouldn't you be happy that Rias wants to chase you?]
"Cough, okay. You're right, but I wonder what made Rias suddenly stimulated to the point of screaming to chase me. You know, at first I thought I needed to do a few more tricks to make Rias really determined to chase me."
[System doesn't know either...]
The system wanted to complain to her host that she couldn't read the heroine's mind.
Can't you understand?
Don't complain so much and just enjoy it!
Riser hummed, he went back to watch TV and wondered what the protagonist was doing?
"If Issei finds out Rias is determined to come after me. Hehe... He won't vomit blood, right? I'll give him the green hats of the two heroines."
Thinking of this, Riser laughed wickedly. Although his day off was interrupted a lot, he was in a very good mood at the moment.
