Chapter 28 - chapter 28

Roaring crowds were cheering on what played out before them. In the old capital of the underworld Lucifaad, the crowds were watching a show that was being played out on the stage in front of them. "DRAGON KICK!" Issei shouted out as he swung his right leg. As it made contact with Kiba in his outfit a small fireball explosion came out the stage giving off the effects of a real battle.

It was far beyond cheesy, but children from all around the underworld have gathered to see the show. They continued as Rias was in a big pink puffy dress alongside Issei watching him fight Kiba. The crowds continued to roar when anybody did something in the show whether it be big or small.

After the show wound down everyone was backstage watching some underworld news as they were resting up after the performance for the live show. Turns out their visit to the underworld was dominating the news cycle as there was information revealed about their encounters with Loki and even the Hero faction in Kyoto. This was all in preparation for the live show of 'Oppai Dragon' that everybody flocked to see. "Bathroom be right back.." Issei said as he left the room.

"It's nothing but us on tv." Koneko said as she was switching channels and seeing the same thing.

Issei walked down the halls of the building that was attached to the stage. As he was passing by he heard some crying coming from the distance "Noooooooooooooo" The child-like voice wailed. Issei got closer to the door hearing more "But I want to meet the Oppai Dragon!"

"I'm sorry, but the autograph session ended a bit ago." One of the female staff members voice was heard from behind the door."

"I see." An older woman's voice was heard "Come on we have to be heading back home then."

Issei reached down grabbing the door handle and played it cool. He turned the knob and opened the door getting the attention of everyone in the room the child was no longer crying as he saw Issei standing there. "Hey, where's the….." Issei saw the two adults turn to look at Issei "Did something happen?"

"Oppai Dragon!" the child yelled out.

The staff member walked over to Issei and explained what was going on. "Sir this mother and child just arrived."

Issei nodded "Do you have a pen?" He asked as she pulled one out of her pocket. Issei walked over to the kid as he crouched down in front of him. "What's your name?"

"Lirenkus."

Issei reached up to the bright red hat on his head that contained a black and green design similar to Ddraig's logo as he pulled it off and started to write on the brim of the cap. Issei looked down at the autograph he just laid down "At least its not ancient greek." Turning the cap back around he handed it to Lirenkus.

He was happy as could be "Thank you." Issei heard from above him as the mother was relieved to see that her child was no longer crying over missing the show.

Lirenkus was admiring the autographed hat as he put it back on his head. "When you grow up you two will become big and strong and protect a girl just like I do. But for now, you don't need to cry."

Issei stood up heading out of the room as the staff member followed him out. As the door closed her voice rattled off "You can't be doing things like that. It's impossible to deal with everyone and if you do things like that I will only cause issues down the line when word gets out."

Issei looked at her "I'm aware that you can't please everyone. I came to ask a staff member where the bathrooms were. What do you want me to do, pop my head in and make myself look like an asshole and leave?"

"It's down the hall to the right." She sighed as Issei handed back her pen as she left.

Issei took one step forward as he felt a pinch on his cheek pulling him backward. There was Rias now holding his face. "While it was bad for the staff you did make the correct decision."

"Oh hey, Rias." Issei blurted out

"Rias Issei what are you two doing here." A tall brown-haired woman and a small red-headed child were walking towards them.

Rias let go of his face and looked at them "Mother and Milicas! The two of you came to the show?"

"Rias Issei!" Millicas ran over to the two of them as he collided with them "The show was so cool!"

"Yes, Rias I came here to see how all the activities would be handled by our employees. Millicas said he wanted to see the show so it was in today's activities." Venelana said as she looked over at Issei "Was it over the top? Because I thought it was a good show."

Shrugging his shoulder he looked at her "I think it was harder for us to make it look real than a trained actor would have. Kicking Kiba and making a shockwave is easy but holding back while making it look real was hard."

"I see… this tokusatsu like show based on you and Rias is becoming an important business for our family. The children of the underworld have latched onto it and are becoming something important to them as well. So your hard work helps the children of the underworld, our clan, and your wife."

"Yes, I'm aware that the show has taken the underworld by storm." Issei said as Venelana grabbed hold of his chin looking at him.

"A show that not only promotes the growth of children but a beautiful relationship." Venelana pulled her hand back. "We have some things to discuss, and you also have to deal with the school festival coming up real soon. Now that I think about it it should be right after the rating game."

The following day during school Issei was leaning on one of the walls as he was looking into one of the first-year student's classrooms. Inside the classroom, Issei was watching a blonde girl with drills for curls in her hair. But he heard the voices coming from the classroom "the beast is watching" "I heard a rumor that he has taken over the school idols and making them into his toys." Issei got a slight smile hearing that.

"Ah, Ise you also came to see how she's doing?" Rias' as she looked into the classroom looking over his shoulder.

"Yeah, she's the Ojou type. Getting along with humans her age is going to be funny to watch." He turned his head to the side to look at her "You don't do the full I'm a princess thing, Ravel on the other hand kinda is."

They heard the teacher speak up "Miss Phenex do you have all your textbooks?" She nodded as she was surrounded by all the girls in the classroom. They bombarded her with questions none she had answers for. It got to the breaking point as she couldn't take the questions anymore as she was just sputtering out umms and aahs as her only answers. "Excuse me" She said as she stood up and headed for the door.

One outside and the door was close the two of them looked at Ravel "So hows is it." Issei asked with Rias looking on.

"It's tough." She said with a red face and an exhale "It's my first time transferring to a school and it's hard to interact with others. It's also hard to discuss things with everyone as their humans while you know." She looked at them giving them the hint that they didn't need but knew all too well.

"Are you trying to avoid them because of that?" Rias asked needing some clarification.

Ravel shook her head "No, I want to get to know these people. It's already much more different than the noble's lifestyle."

"I have an idea it might help you." Issei got ready to look into the classroom as what he was looking for was walking down the halls. "Koneko I need you to do something for me." Issei said as she got close.

"What is it?''

"I need you to be…" Issei waved his hand around trying to get the idea flowing. "A talking pal and help for Ravel here with school things. And because you in the same year let alone class it makes things easier."

Koneko's eyebrows twitched as she wasn't all too happy to hear that. "Fine… if you want it I don't mind." There was less emotion in her Koneko's voice than normal.

"Perfect the two of you can work with each other when it comes to school and human things."

"Bird princess." Koneko said looking at Ravel.

Veins in Ravel's forehead appeared as her anger started to boil over. "What did you just call me?!"

"Useless"

"You!" Ravel broke loose "To talk to the daughter of the House Phenex in such a manner."

"I don't think this was a good idea." Rias whispered into Issei's ear as Ravel and Koneko were throwing insults at each other.

"Thinking about it now Cat and Bird, you might be right. But it could be worth it." Issei answered back.

"Is her hair twitching?" Rias asked as the fight had yet to be turned into a physical altercation.

"It's kinda cute."

"I am not trouble for Lord Issei." Ravel yelled back at Koneko as they were staring at each other.

Both Ravel and Koneko's eyes met Issei as he was watching. Soon their fight turned to him as he raised his hands "And who's side are you on?" They asked at the same time.

"I'm impartial here, I'll pet or hold the winner. The loser…. well, I'll pet or hold them as well." Issei gave them his smile as he backed away from the oncoming onslaught.

After school, everybody had gathered in the club room. "Okay everyone it's been decided." Rias said "We're going to be doing a mashup of everybody's ideas. And with all of the spare rooms we have available, we can make it a reality." Everybody split off to take care of tasks to get ready for the festival.

Outside Issei and Kiba were repairing some of the wood on the building that needed some love. "What do you know of Diehauser Belial?" Kiba asked, striking up a conversation as they made the repairs.

"The Emperor of Rating Games?" Issei answered.

"Yes, it's said that the Emperor, Roygun Belphegor, and Bedeze Abaddon are unbeatable due to their ranks haven't changed in years, even some say that they are on the same levels with the Maou."

Issei snickered hearing that after seeing the partial power of a Maou. "I doubt that last part. While everybody has an upper limit there has to be a weakness."

Kiba agreed "Yes that is true but look at us. Our weakness was shown off when we battled in the Sitri match. We need a new mindset when we approach battles like those."

"But right now we have a fight with no limits. Something that we can accel at." Issei was driving nails into boards as Kiba kept handing him new ones as they were repairing the building.

"Even then our information is plastered all over television in the underworld. They likely know you have something planned for the match. And who knows if they are aware of Ex Durandal's existence yet." Kiba handed off another board "But there's a bigger problem at hand. Your new form, it's far too direct."

Issei knew what he was talking about all too well. "Triaina has plenty of upsides, Rook is amazing for defense but moving around in it is horribly slow. Knight has the same downsides you do except I'm more durable than you."

"Yes, I agree your version of the knight has some more upsides to it. But there is still the issue with your stamina while in that form and what order you use those forms in."

Issei looked at Kiba like a deer in the headlights "I think I understand."

"Understand what?" Kiba was confused about hearing that.

"Ise" A quiet voice was heard in the back calling out.

"The Queen is the route." Kiba was still confused hearing that "A perfected queen should remove all of the drains and be able to use all of the forms with no drawbacks."

"Just as a normal queen should be able to use all of the forms." Kiba said as Rias walked around the corner.

"Ise." She called out as he turned around.

"Repairs here are almost done." Issei gave her a status report but Rias didn't look as if she was looking for a report on the repairs.

"The two of us are needed in the underworld." Rias was somewhat neutral she said.

After a few teleports, Rias and Issei were in the backseat of a limo that was driving through a forest. There were trees of all kinds as they were on the road. Rias handed Issei the vase of flowers that she hand been holding. "These come from my mother, part of the reason as to why we are here. When we get there you will understand, but we are in the Sitri territory right now. It's funny how the Sitri's are known for water magic yet they also maintain some of the largest sections of nature in the underworld." The limo was slowing down as it stopped in front of a large building. "They also happen to be pioneers in medicine and medical facilities for traditional medical needs."

As they got out of the limo they saw the building was modern but still had that esthetic that you would see in a cabin in the jungle. When they got out of the limo they were greeted by an older man in a butler outfit. "I've been expecting you."

"Please lead the way," Rias said as Issei helped her out of the limo. The three of them walked through the building as they got to an elevator. "You remember how my mother is from the Bael family?" She asked him

"Hard to forget, than and your Sairaorg cousin."

"Right my mother is the sister-in-law of Sairaorg mother."

"Lady Misla was once a member of the Vapula clan. They are a clan that rules over lions. Impressive powers when you see them in action." The butler filled in some more information as they made their way to a room.

"This is the room Lady Rias."

They entered the room and saw that it was a spruced up hospital room with a woman sleeping on the bed with long brown hair. "This is Misla Bael, Lord Sairaorg's mother. The reason I called the two of you here today is I would like to see if the powers of the Red Dragon would be able to wake her from her slumber."

Issei was puzzled as he was no doctor. He was a man of combat not one of science. "And how do you plan I go about that?" Issei asked the butler.

"I have heard that you have the power to listen deep down to a woman's heart. I believed they called it a Nyuu power something far different than demonic power that can bring miracles. The doctors have already clear your use of this power as demonic power would bring her no harm."

Issei knew where this was going with this 'Nyuu' power. "Going to have a chat with Azazel about that name. But yes I can use that power on her." He looked over at Rias "Do you think it will even work on sick people."

Rias was amazed that he would even ask a question like that. "How should I know? It's your power after all. See what happens there's no point in not trying, aside from the privacy concerns."

Issei discarded that last part as he walked towards the sleeping woman as his hands started to glow green. As he knelt next to her bed and hovered his hand over her shoulder. "Okay, Pailingual show me." He placed his hand on her shoulder as he funneled the power in her as the two of them were now in a small green dimension. "Misla Bael can you hear me?"Issei waited for a reply but only the sound of silence rang through.

Outside in reality they watched as the boosted gear appeared on his hand as it glowed. [Boost!] Issei felt the surge of power and tried once again "Misla Bael can you hear me?" And once again he got no response.

Pulling away now back in the real space he looked over at Rias "Come here real quick Rias." When she walked over towards him as he reached out and grabbed her transporting the two into the power space. "So do my powers still work?"

A cute girly voice came out that still sounded like rias "I wonder if we can get him to wear a suit and strip for us."

Issei heard all he needed as he let go as he looked at Rias "Order one it might be fun." Her face was red as she raised her hand and karate chopped him on the top of the head.

Recovering from her hit he stood up "I might need plenty of power to speak with her." He clenched his gauntlet fingers as there was a bright flash of light. [WELSH DRAGON BALANCE BREAKER!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] Issei touched her once again "Can you hear me?"

"What are you all doing?" A voice was heard this time but it was male. Issei was pulled out of the space as they looked over and saw that it was Sairog standing in the middle of the doorway. Issei dropped his armor as he looked back and forth between Sairaorg and Rias.

After a few minutes of Rias apologizing for what was happening, they were talking outside. "I'm sorry about this. I told Ise about all of this and thought it might be a good idea." Rias said as they were sitting outside on a bench in the garden area.

"It's alright." Sairaorg said to the two of them "It's nice to see that the two of you came to see her tho. The kindness I have received from the Gremory and Sitri families is immense."

"It's the least we can do." Rias said as if they were having a normal conversation.

Sairaorg looked over at Issei "But when it comes to the game that is different. I don't want any forms of sympathy or holding back from any of you. I want to see the full power of the Gremory group when we fight."

"Holding back was never on the agenda." Issei grinned from ear to ear "I plan on showing you and the underworld my full power."

"Is that so?" Sairaorg smiled hearing that "From the confidence, I see in you I take it you learned something from your trip to Kyoto?" Issei shrugged trying to play it off and Sairaorg knew there was more than meets the eye. "Rias, Hyoudou Issei, I will fight in the games for my dreams. I trust you will do the same."

"I won't lose." Rias said, bolstering her confidence. Sairaorg was satisfied to hear that declaration as he said his farewell.

The following day everybody was in a dressing room waiting around as Rias and Akeno were having their makeup finished. Issei was sitting on one of the sofas as Koneko was sitting on his lap eating cake while the rest of the girls were trying to look their best for the upcoming event.

Asia and Rossweisse were looking in the mirrors wondering if makeup was even the right choice as Xenovia had made up her mind forgoing any sort of makeup. Looking over to one of the chairs Issei saw Gasper. "Are you doing okay?"

"No… This thing is out of place for somebody like me."

"Just don't run to your box."

"Today is my day now that the bird brain isn't here." Koneko said as she had a small blush on her face that Issei couldn't see.

Akeno's keen eye caught on to Koneko as she went over to the two of them. "Oh my, it looks like Koneko thinks Ravel will take Ise away."

Issei looked down as he twirled her tail in hand as he moved in next to her ear. "Is it true?" His voice was smooth as it crossed her ears.

"You're too kind sometimes." Koneko said, keeping her voice down.

"Mother never let me have a kitten when I was younger. Now I have one and a birdie that cheers me up when I see them." Koneko's tail was wiggling around as he said that so his words must have hit the spot.

Akeno looked over at Issei with a smile "I wonder what you did."

A knock at the door was heard as it opened up "It's time." A staff member said.

They walked through the halls of the building heading towards their destination nearing a door. The staff member looked at them before she opened the door holding out a paper. "This is the seating arrangement. Please make sure you take the correct seats."

Everyone got a good look at the chart to see where they were going to be as Rias put her hand on the doorknob and opened the door. On the inside a male voice was over a microphone "And now arriving is the Gremory Group." Rias led the others out as there were two tables on an elevated platform in front of a crowd. Camera flashes and people were roaring off as everybody was taking their seats.

"Now that everyone has arrived we can begin this press conference." The host said as he started directing questions.

After a few minutes of answering questions ranging from how they were preparing for the games to general life questions they finally came to Issei. "This question is for Issei Hyoudou Gremory." Issei caught attention by the way he was referred to as the question was asked. "Will you be poking Princess Rias' breast in this match? And if you do what situation would you need to be in to poke them?"

Issei had to think about it for a moment. "I'm not so sure." He thrust his fingers forward and twirled them "I can't tell you if I'll poke them or if I don't. It's all situational if I even need to." Issei could see that they were blurring the lines of his TV show and the reality of the rating games. But if it was for the sake of asking questions for the Oppai Dragon show.

"Will you be sucking on her breast?" One of the female reporters in the crowd asked.

The underworld was full of surprises as Issei was at a loss for an answer. He looked over to Rias only to see that she had a raging blush on trying to avoid all things to do with the question. "Sure?" Issei shrugged his shoulders as he answered.

The shutter of cameras went wild and people were writing down things as he answered them. "If poking them gives you a power-up what will sucking on them do? Will, it give you enough power to destroy the underworld?"

That's when Issei decided he was going to have his fun, "Yeah that sounds about right. It should give me enough power to take over the TV ratings and make Oppai Dragon number one in every time slot. It will give me so much power that it's possible to make crossover episodes with Miracle Levia-tan and Maou Rangers at the same time."

And the media bought it hook line and sinker. They roared in excitement overhearing that. "Contender Sairaorg, how do you feel about these accusations?"

"As long as they make the match a better fight I think it's great!"

Issei leaned over the table looking at Sairaorg "Maybe a game of checkers while we're at it?" The host quickly lost control of the interview after that as it spiraled out of control faster than expected. Sure it was Issei's fault that it happened but when it was the best way to indulge their fantasies, who cares?

Later in the day after the madness had subsided, they were back at home. Issei was alone relaxing in the sauna attached to the underground bath. Times were going well for everyone as there was no looming threat of death it was a nice change for once. That's when Issei heard the door open as he looked over to see who it was. Rias entered the sauna without a towel in her full glory. "So you are here Ise." She said as she walked over to him.

Issei waved her over, when she got close enough she reached down grabbing the towel that was draped over his lap. Tossing the towel aside she sat down on his lap as she straddled him. A smile came to his face "I wasn't expecting this." His hands wrapped around her as they rested on her ass.

"It's only the two of us in here. What would happen if I pushed you down?" Her lustful tone was almost the same as Akeno almost as if she decided to learn from the others.

"I don't know." He taunted her seeing what she would do.

Rias shoved him down on the bench as she pressed her breasts into his chest keeping him pinned down but she used very little force to keep him in place. Issei lifted his hands off her ass and smacked both of her cheeks make her let out a small yelp as his fingers dug down and spread her ass apart. She ran her hands through his hair as she was holding his head in place while the two of them were making out. It was nice to see Rias taking the lead seeing what she could get away with.

But Issei knew that she wanted something and he was going to force her to ask for it. That's when he sat up and placed her on the bench as he sat down on the floor in front of her. While on the floor he scooched forward pulling her legs apart and getting near her crotch. She could feel the cooler air of his breath on her skins as it sent a tingling sensation through her body. He looked up from between her legs. "My Princess, what is thy desire?"

She poked her two index fingers together as she no longer had the advantage and reverted to a more timid voice. "Could just the two of us have fun?"

Issei stuck out his tongue and gave her a lick while making eye contact with her. Her legs clamped around his head when he did that. "All you had to do was ask." His arms went around her legs wrapping around them. "But we are in a sauna, and if we get heatstroke I'll blame it on you."

Rias looked down at Issei as his eyes were now slits focusing on his prey. "I" She squealed out as Issei dived in giving into what she wanted.

The following day after school Issei was sitting around in the club room with everyone else as he had a copy of the morning Underworld newspaper. "Oppai Dragons plans on suck on Switch princess breasts to rule the TV Ratings." Issei read aloud as he folded up the paper.

"You did sell it a little too well." Kiba said as everyone agreed with him.

"It's not my fault they are idiots for buying it." Issei said as Ravel looked up at him as she and Koneko were sharing a spot on his lap.

"You somewhat did, they take any news as news. And something like that was a huge thing for them."

Just then the lights in the room dimmed as on the table an orange glow radiated from the table. "Phenex?" Koneko said as the Phenex clan symbol appeared on the table.

"Oh don't tell me its Riser." Issei said as a woman appeared in the circle.

She was an older woman whole looked just like Ravel only with her hair pinned up. "No, it's not Riser." She said seeing everyone in the room.

"Mother?" Ravel said as she stood up from Issei's lap.

Where Ravel was sitting was not lost upon her " Yes sorry for the call. This was my only free time and considering japan's timezone it's rough." She sported a sly smile "I see Issei is here but is Rias here as well?"

"I am." Rias said from her desk waving her hand "How can we help you Lady Phenex."

"I would do this in person but I have been far too busy. But I wanted to thank the two of you for dealing with my children."

"It's…." Issei didn't know how to answer her question as Rias finished it for him "Think nothing of it."

"That is good to hear coming from you Rias. I know Riser was far from the most desirable suitors. But after the beating he received from Issei it looks as if he has learned that not everything is as black and white. As for my daughter, thank you for taking her into your home while she is in Japan." She looked at Issei directly "I want you to take care of my daughter from the… shall we say undesirable pests."

"That should be fairly easy." Issei nodded his head.

"Also I traded one of my bishop pieces with Riser. So my daughter is free to spread her wings."

He caught onto the message "I am but a simple man." Reaching forward and grabbing a hold of Ravel he pulled her back to his lap where she was sitting once before. "A voice in my favor could help me grow my wings."

She raised an eyebrow in response "With that taken care of I must conclude my business here. And Ravel do behave in a manner that would be befitting of a lady." The orange hue disappeared as the room as the light returned to normal.

"Befitting of a lady." Akeno said as she was looking at Rias with a big Cheshire cat-like grin on her face.

Rias looked up and saw the face she was making as she turned away. "I have no idea what you're talking about."

Try as she might Rias couldn't dodge the truth. Akeno made a low humming noise "So something did happen last night." She looked over to Issei "Maybe you could shed some light Issei."

Falling in line he feigned innocence as he put his hands over the ears of Koneko and Ravel and pulled them into his chest as if he was covering them. "That is most inappropriate of you." Ravel had a small blush form as she was laying on his chest.

"Now your siding with Rias?" Akeno feigned being hurt. "It's almost as the two of you were in the sauna last night having…"

"Enough Akeno!" Rias shouted trying to stop her before anything else came to light. "We have work to do before the festival and the match. Just take care of business."

Issei was snickering as he pushed the two girls off him. "I'm going to finish something." He pointed towards the door as he excused himself as Kiba followed him.

A day passed as it was the time they had all been waiting for. The sky was purple among the backdrop of the clouds as they were in a gondola riding up towards a large landmass floating in the sky. Asia Irina Xenovia Koneko and Issei were looking out the window at the large island that was floating in the sky.

"The Floating island of Agreas," Rias said "It was created back in the era of the Old Maou. Maou Beelzebub has made this a huge research point of his. His peerage members learn as much as possible about the island and maintain it as much as they can. Part of the reason why there are so many gondolas on this island is they want to limit as much magic use as possible."

"But we're going to have a match up here?" Asia asked as magic power was bound to be used.

"Our fights take place in a different dimension, Agares island is a large tourist resort." Rias said as the gondola docked with the station.

As they got off they were ferried off towards a VIP room where others were already waiting for them. Azazel who wanted to talk about something met up with them as they were on their way. "You know you kids are lucky to be fighting in this stadium." He told them as they continued towards the VIP room.

"What happened this time?" Rias asked knowing that it had to be some form of infighting.

"The Satans wished for the game to take place in the Gremory or Maou territory. But Bael didn't take kindly to those thoughts. There was a huge argument between the Maou and Bael over the fame factor of the House names. Thankful Agares was able to shut the old man up and act as a middle man to secure this location for the match."

"So this match could be considered a proxy war between Maou Lucifer and Great King Bael?" Kiba asked him.

Stroking his chin Azazel thought of a way to downplay it. "There is more than one way to look at it. But the way the media see's it is Oppai Dragon and Switch Princess vs the Strongest Youth Sairaorg. But the families and politicians see it as a proxy war."

"So much for ambition and drive to accel in the games. It reminds me why most factions didn't want to deal with the devils for the longest time."

Azazel got a good laugh out of that "Listen I want all of you to have a good time when you're out there. Don't worry about the what-ifs that are to come after the battle. The adults will deal with the fallout that's bound to happen."

They moved into the stadium taking an elevator up to one of the massive VIP rooms. The room was as fancy could get decorated top to bottom with everything that was needed to scream I have too much money, the signature of devil families. As they were waiting around there was a presence looming around that entered, it was a skeleton followed by a few others also in robes. The skeleton was holding onto a staff with a skull on it with three blue eyes. A deep voice came as his eye sockets glowed "If it isn't the Gremory and the Governor-general."

Azazel smiled at the skeleton and sarcastic replayed back "If it isn't the God of the dead Hades. You come to the top side bearing so many grim reapers with you. Yet here I thought the one who hates devils and fallen angels more than anything else would come all the way here, to a devil sponsored event no less."

"Screw you crow, I would rather not be here yet you have been causing too much noise so I had to see what was going on."

Issei looked over at Hades and looked at the robed figures "Is that Pluto you brought with you?" Issei asked, seeing the robed figures for a split second.

"And yet the brat is here as well." Hades was now even less enthused

"Are you still mad that Persephone thinks I'm cute?" Issei saw Hade's disapproval "It's because you're a skeleton you know that. Missing the equipment tends to help with her flirting."

Hades was not amused "I was going to enjoy today's event, but you had best hope you don't die here today. I didn't come to take souls today, especially yours." Hades tapped his staff on the ground as his escorts turned around and opened the door as he left the room.

Issei was giggling as the door closed "Are you mad messing with a god like that?" Rossweisse said perplexed hearing Issei's attitude towards Hades "He already doesn't feel alive and then you tempt him."

"Hades isn't dumb enough to attack me directly. That would cause many people to come down on him, and possibly be replaced by a cooler god of death. Somebody like Anubis, he's a cool person. And his magic circle is really cool as well as it creates seven symbols and then the center shimmers blue once connected."

"Hades just hates Devils and fallen and is somewhat indifferent to the other mythologies. Everybody hates him but is a necessary evil." Azazel said, trying to calm the others down.

The door slammed open as two tall men were standing in the doorway. "Azazel!" They called out getting everyone's attention. Zeus and Poseidon were standing in the doorway "The girls are having their own party and the bag of bones isn't gonna bother us so let's have our own party!" Poseidon said holding up a few bottles of alcohol as they walked towards him.

It sounds like they were already drunk as Zeus put his hands on Azazel's shoulder "Come on you don't want to be lonely all of your life. We can hook you up with some nice ladies." Zeus handed him a bottle as they persuaded Azazel to leave the room.

Everybody watched in silence as two Gods were acting like a bunch of drunken frat boys. "Is that normal?" Kiba asked after seeing what just unfolded.

"Yeah, yeah it is." Issei looked over at Rossweisse "Reminds you of Odin?"

She nodded "Not surprising Booze and genitals flying around one way or another are coming for the Greeks."

Issei shook his right hand pointing his finger and Rias "You might want to watch out after the match."

Not knowing for what Rias asked anyways "Why?"

"They just said the girls are partying. That means they are gossiping and drinking. It's a standard thing but that means Hera, Athena, Aphrodite, and who knows how many others are talking. Mom is going to talk and they might bring you into it later."

With the antics over everyone got a chance to relax a bit before the match was ready to start. The door opened up once again showing somebody who was far from expected. "Riser." Rias said as Ravel looked over "Brother?"

Riser Phenex had graced their presence all by himself. "Hello, Good to see you are doing well Ravel." He took a seat next to them as he looked at them. "It's good to see you have come this far. This match is the talk of the underworld, so much that it's not far from how it's dealt with on the pro circuit. This generation is packed with exceptional talent that it will be an amazing game to watch." He stood up from the chair "Rias also wanted to come here to say I'm sorry."

Everyone was struck by the admission that he just made as he was walking towards the door. "Ravel is just as spoiled Rias is." He closed the door behind them leaving them with things to think about.

It was game time as they emerged from behind a large door entering a massive Dome stadium as the crowd roared. Over the intercom, a voice was heard announcing the action On the East gate Sairaorg Bael's team. The crowd roared in excitement as Sairaorg and his team appeared as they took their place in a floating booth.

And on the West gate, Rias Gremory team. He announced his words but they were drowned out by the crowd chanting "Oppai! Oppai! Oppai! Oppai!"

When both teams were in their designated places in the middle of them a large hologram appeared of a man wearing flashy clothes and an earpiece microphone. Hello everyone, I am Naud Gamigin of house Gamigin and I will be your broadcaster for this match. He pointed in the air This game's arbiter is none other than Rudiger Rosenkreutz! The hype was building more and more for this even as one of the top ten had to grace their presence to watch the match. And finally I will be having a guest commentator in the booth with me today. The hologram pointed towards the room they were in as it faded away Governor of the Fallen Angels AZAZEL!

Yes yes hello there. This should be an interesting matchup we are going to see.

Agreed, Governor you are somewhat famous for having good relations with Lord Lucifer and other leaders of assorted factions, and your research on Sacred Gears has made you somewhat of the sole expert in the field. How do you see today's match coming with your foresight into the working of the gears?

It's a tough thing to say outright, but the real question is it possible for the right matchup to be able to see all of their powers?

I see, then let us get on with some information before we start this game. First of all regarding the use of the Phoenix Tears. As you all are aware of the continuous terrorist attacks by the Khaos Brigade the demand for the tears is astronomical. Due to this, we were going to disallow the use of them, but thanks to Lord Phenex and the buying power of both Bael and Gremory clans we were able to secure two of them for the use in this match. A pillar formed in each one of the booths as a box was there holding the tear for each team.

"Now we have to beat Sairaorg twice." Kiba said getting everyone to agree with him as they listened on to what was next.

Next on our list is there is a special rule for this game. It was agreed upon by both teams that there would be no limits on what could and could not be used. However, the Rating game committee had decided that this will be a match style fight. Who will fight in each match will be determined… BY DICE ROLL! One of the giant monitors in the stadium showed a pair of dice rolling. Each King please step forward to the pedestal. When Rias and Sairaorg were in front of the pedestal Naud continued In the bowel there is a single die. It's a standard six-sided die each King will roll the die before the round to decide who can fight. Pawns are worth 1 Knights and Bishops 3 Rook's 5 Queen's 9. The value of each die rolled will be tallied up and will be the deciding factor on who can fight in each match. Since the maximum number is 12 each king has been given a number approximating their strengths. For this Sairaorg Bael has been given the value of a 12 and Rias Gremory has been given an 8. That means if Sairaorg Bael wishes to fight then each team must roll a six. And one final thing, no fighter may fight in consecutive matches.

"I doubt if a 12 was rolled then Sairaorg would fight on round one. There's too much on the line here for the possibility to throw it all away in one match." Rias looked over to Asia "I'm sorry Asia but I can't send you out in this game due to the rules."

"I understand I can heal everyone when they return back here."

Team Sairaorg Bael, Team Rias Gremory this game will now BEGIN!

They each picked up the die and rolled it into a bowel as each result was shown on the screen. Gremory has rolled a 2 while Bael has rolled a 1. As there are no pawns of the value of 3 or less on any team Knights and Bishops are allowed. A barrier formed over each team giving them the privacy

Rias looked at her team "We don't have a big choice here. Asia isn't going at and Gasper isn't much of a frontline fighter, only a rear guard. The only choice we have is a power or technical Knight." Getting a nod from Kiba and Xenovia "I don't think we should spoil anything about Ex Durandal if possible."

"We might need her cannon later for some extra brute force." Issei added in.

"I understand no need to give them more information than needed." Xenovia agreed, understanding that tactical decision that was being made.

"Kiba it's all yours to start it with a bang."

Your time is up fighters step forwards.

As Kiba moved towards the platform Xenovia looked over at Issei "Hey Issei do you think I don't use my brain?"

Issei smiled as Kiba disappeared "I never said anything close to it."

Knight Yuuto Kiba will be fighting… Girls squealing could be heard as the announcer continued. Knight Beruka Furcas.

Kiba was on a flat grassy plain standing within a stone's throw of his opponent. "I have the luck to be the first person to cross blades with the infamous holy demonic sword user Kiba Yuuto." Beruka said as he was in a suit of armor riding a horse that was covered in flames.

Governor Do you know anything about that horse he is riding on.

Pale horse. It's a horse that resides in the deepest parts of hell in Cocytus. The reapers are famous for riding them, the horses are famous for beating an unworthy rider to death.

Kiba drew his sword as the video feed was trained in on the two of them as they made the opening move of the match. They blasted off at an incredible speed as the camera was having a hard time watching them but the sound of metal impacting rang out all over the land as they constantly and struck each other. Their clashes could be seen by some but thanks to the magic of video they were able to see it all in crisp detail.

The two of them stopped in a section that had been left free of holes. "To think that you would be able to force a draw against my horse. You are a frightening opponent, Knight of the princess."

"You are no slouch yourself. The synergy between you and your horse is amazing." Kiba swung his blade as it shifted from his holy demonic sword to a jagged blade as he raised it up. The sky flashed as a bolt of lightning came crashing down.

Beruka recognized what was going on as he raised up his weapon attracting the bolt and sending its power to the ground. "You're going to need more than that to take me out!" The sword he was holding was cracked so he discarded it grabbing a spare that was mounted on the saddle.

Kiba smiled seeing the facts laid out for me. "I didn't want to do this so early but it looks as if I don't have a choice. I guess I have to defeat you here and now. The later fights will be requiring my stamina."

"Your talent is impressive but I will be grinding you down here eliminating those chances."

Kiba twirled his sword, sending it back into the sheath."Balance break." When he pulled it back out it was now a white and golden traditional European sword now in his hand. Around Kiba, five armored knights appeared in a white and blue hue as they had a matching sword equipped.

"Balance breaker? That's impossible. Your Balance breaker is Sword of the Betrayer, the Holy demonic sword. How can you have another Balance Breaker?" Beruka was dumbstruck seeing what was in front of him. "How?" That's when it hit him "You also carry Blade Blacksmith don't you."

Kiba nodded "Glory Drag Trooper is my subspecies Balance breaker of Blade Blacksmith. Fighting somebody like the Red Dragon Emperor every day is hell."

Blade Blacksmith's nature balance breaker is Blade Knight Mass. It makes armored figures wielding a variety of holy swords. But it looks as if Kiba has been able to alter it to fit his needs. Azazel's voice got a bit weirder Seeing that shows that Issei has rubbed off onto Kiba influencing him. I think some of the ladies might appreciate that. Azazel could be heard laughing about it while still on the intercom There is a legend about the Hosts of the Red and White dragons that anybody who follows them if they have a sacred gear it tends to awaken or change in abnormal ways.

Kiba put one foot forward as all the Knights did the same. "Here it comes." Kiba was sent flying forward as Beruka did the same. As their attacks collided metal was heard cracking as a scream was heard. Beruka was slumped over on his horse, his armor was shattered as there was a cut on his chest that was leaking blood as it hissed. He was engulfed in a white light as the announcer's voice ended the match. Sairaorg Bael's Knight retires.

As Kiba was transported back to the staging area with everyone Rias and Sairaorg rolled the dice, Rias rolled a 6 and Sairaorg a 4. Now we have a total of 10, the possibilities have just skyrocketed.

"It's far too early to send Issei or Akeno. Rossweisse and Koneko, deal with them."

Sairaorg had already decided as they were whisked away. The field they were in was a dark and destroyed warehouse of sorts. It was cluttered with boxes and holes in the ceiling that left debris scattered all over. In front of them, they saw a thin blonde man with light armor and a massive man who towered over them only wearing a pair of jeans as his skin looked as if it was made of rock. "I am the other remaining knight Liban Crocell and this here is our rook Gandoma Balam." The blonde man introduced them.

"They're strong." Koneko said as Rossweisse caught onto it. It was going to be a 100% fight from the start. Koneko's body produced an aura that made her glow green. Out of the top of her head popped out a small set of cat ears as under her skirt a tail came out a pair of tails that lifted her skirt up just enough to show off a glimpse of her green underwear.

The crowd was going nuts as they saw Koneko transform, turns out she had a bigger following than everyone expected her to have. Koneko ran towards Gandoma striking him, hitting the mountain repeatedly in the face with a flurry of punches and kicks. Gandoma swung his log of an arm trying to swat her away like a fly. As she dodged out of the way Gandoma was struck with a variety of Ice and lightning spells from Rossweisse.

"Why do so many people have such a high magical defense." Rossweisse said to herself as the floor under her started to crack. She was shoved down into the ground by some unseen force

Liban walked towards Rossweisse as his eyes were glowing yellow "You have far too many openings."

"Gravity control…" Rossweisse looked at the man as she funneled some of her magic into her feet.

Liban pointed his finger at her as ice-covered her legs rooting her in place. "You didn't think I was going to let you move?"

"So you're a magic swordsman."

"I am a Crocell and a mage, a mixed-blood with the Sacred Gear Gravity Jail who also happens to use a sword." The ice on her legs gives off a blinding flash as it starts reflecting light all around her. "Don't think I have not accounted for a trick like that." A large mirror appeared next to him as the light was channeled into the mirror and back at Rossweisse. The ice shattered during this as the area shook, Gandoma was struck by some of the ice flying around as well as he was pinned down by a beam of light.

The base around Rossweisse was reflecting the attack "Is it done?" Rossweisse asked over the earpieces.

"Yes.. he should be weak now." Konkeo's voice was heard as Rossweisse raised up her hands as an array of magic circles were formed as they rained down on a variety of magic across the field. As the spells rained down she could feel the restraints being released as the explosion rattled off.

Gandoma's body was engulfed in white light as Liban drew a sword advancing towards Rossweisse. "To think the two of you were able to tag in and out and defeat Gandoma. I truly understand why master Sairaorg thinks so highly of all of you. But its time we move this show onward." He was getting ready to slash his sword down as Rossweisse brought up a defense to block it, Koneko punched him in the side of the ribs with an attack transferring a larger portion of energy into him. His ribs cracking was heard as he was thrown to the side and into a wall as Rossweisse finished the job sending hundreds of spears of ice at him. SHe didn't let up until the voice came over.

Sairaorg Bael Knight and Rook have retired. This round goes to Rias Gremory.

Rossweisse and Koneko came back as Rossweisse's legs were lightly scraped up from the ice while Konkeo was covered in some a small amount of blood from the hits she took. Issei reached over towards patting her head as her tails swished back and forth. "Your new form makes you even more dangerously cute. Double the tail double the fun."

Rias however was rolling for the next game We have a matching set of fours everyone! The announcer shouted out as the barriers started to form.

"Wait!" Sairaorg called out "We will be sending out Corianna Andrealphus, one of my Bishops." Sairaorg declared as the woman stepped forward. It was a blonde bombshell in a skimpy business suit.

What is the reason behind this declaration?

"How would Hyoudou Issei be able to respond if I said that my Bishop has a technique that can oppose his lecherous powers outright?" The crowd awed in amazement to hear that there was such an ability.

That's quite an interesting declaration. Issei's use of the Dress break and his 'Bilingual' are a force to be fear among women. Azazel said as a creaking of the door was heard behind them.

I for one would like to see if such a power is true. A new voice was heard over the comms.

Champion Diehauser! Naud shouted out

The possibilities of seeing him bring out new techniques intrigues me.

His body is made of 100% perversion and we can blame that on the blood. But his head is empty enough that there might be a sponge in there for when he wants to learn about fighting. Azazel's compliment and insult went over well with the crowd as they started laughing.

Issei stood up from his seat "I guess I'll accept this challenge."

Rias looked at him "It's a trap and you know it. It's almost like he's setting you up with a trial."

Issei nodded as he walked towards the platform "Yep I know. Why do you think he wanted to use all my techniques?"

Waving him off she sighed "Fine… I guess it should be interesting to see if some woman has the ability to fend off your techniques."

Issei walked onto the transfer zone as he bowed in front of the crowd as he was whisked away. I guess he plans on taking on that challenge. "OPPAI! OPPAI! OPPAI! OPPAI!" The chants rocked the stadium as the children kept the chants going.

The two of them were transported to a massive flower garden. Corianna was not far away from him as the call for the match to start was made. The gauntlet appeared as Issei started to dodge large ice sickles that she was throwing at him, getting Issei to back away from her. Issei smashed his hands together as they glowed green engulfing the two in the zone. "Shall we see what's going on then?"

Corianna ignored Issei as she unbuttoned her top pulling it off revealing a slim pink undershirt that showed off her curves. Issei pushed forward with his power 'Skirt.' Was all he heard.

Unbelievable Coriana Andrealphus is stripping in the middle of the battle.

She ran her hands down to her skirt and undid the button as she shimmied it down her hips dropping it to the ground slowly. It revealed her white and purple floral panties as her hands ran up to the top of her blouse. One by one she unbuttoned it as her breast gained some relief from the strain of the shirt.

"Are you going to deal with her Issei?" Rias asked in his earpiece.

Issei covered his mouth "She has no shame, her breasts are telling me what she is going to strip off next."

"Just shoot her then."

"I have a better idea." Issei watched as she pulled off her shirt as her breast bounced around.

To think that she is neutralizing him in a manner that all men can get behind. The Dress break ability would be pointless when she is going to do it for him. Azazel's comments were spot on.

Um yes about that, we have censored some of it due to the high volume of children in the stadium and at home.

Issei watched as her hands reached down to her panties as she turned around and bent over as she was sliding her panties down. His right eyebrow twitched as he got a full showing of her vagina. Her legs were spread far enough apart as for when the panties broke free he could see a full showing of it all. Stepping off her panties she twirled back around as her hands reached behind her and she unclasped her bra. Nothing was showing until she pulled it off as slowly as possible removing each breast from their cup.

As her bra ran down her arms she raised her arms twirling the bra around her right hand letting her breast jiggle freely as she tossed the bra at Issei smacking him in the face with it. Pulling the bra off his face he folded it and dropped it on the ground "Well?" She asked, "Are you ready to fight me?" She placed her hands on her hips giving everything one good jiggle for him.

Issei looked down at his pants just to make sure. "Can I get a copy of that uncensored on DVD or whatever devils use for media?" No. Azazel gave a firm answer to him "It's uncensored in the booth isn't it?" Nooooooo Azazel tried but the gig was up.

"Ha perv." Issei looked back at Coriana "So miss Andrealphus…" He reached down grabbing one of the few roses in the ground around him "Shal I teach you the errors of your ways?" Twirling the rose in his fingers as he walked towards her.

Raising her right hand she fired a few icicles at him as he threw the rose at her like a giant dart. The stem of the rose impacted with the pointy tip of the icicle shattering the first one. He dodges the second one as he ran towards her grabbing the rose before it fell and placed the rose between her breasts as he got behind her. Spiky vines exploded from the rose as they bound her in a BDSM fashion as it went into every place it could where the skin would contact with skin when the body moved.

Behind her, there were two spike free vines that he pulled on tightening the vines down as the thorns pierced the skin in her arms and legs and even the gap near her vagina. She was in massive pain as if she moved the thorns with dig in further. "Your idea was good. Strip for me and have your breasts only talk about what you're going to strip next. You're a woman with no shame it's rare to see something like that." His breathing was getting deeper as he pulled down more on the vines sending them deeper into her skin "But you messed up. A good strip show always has the panties coming off last. No matter what your vagina is more precious than your golden globes."

Blood was dripping down her body as he yanked on the vines whipping her head backward as she was looking up at him "Nice try tho. It might have worked if I was interested in you." He reached down between her breasts grabbing the rose as all of the vines disintegrated releasing her from her binds. With his left hand, he pushed her forward as she stumbled forward "Dragon Shot." It was a low yield blast but it was more than enough to end it.

Sairaorg Bael's Bishop retires. That ends the spectacle we just witnessed.

Up in the main VIP room the Four Satans were watching with a few others the Gremory family as well as some of Issei's extended family. "Aphrodite, just what have you been teaching that boy?"

Aphrodite looked over to see a refined woman like Venelana but one who carried more authority. "Not that Hera."

"I would hope so. It's nice to see that he has picked up some of the traditional techniques. But still a showing like that."

"Ladies…" Sirzechs looked over to them stopping their babbling "Why did you really hand Issei over to us?" Sirzechs asked, looking for a general answer.

"What do you mean by that?" Aphrodite asked

"He's a demi-god and holds a dragon sacred gear. He should be full of pride. Yet he shows none of that and looks as if he enjoys being a devil."

Aphrodite frowned hearing that "Issei is a special child and we all know that." All of them nodded in agreement. "Us Greeks are no longer in the place we used to be. His talents would have rotted away if he stayed with us."

"That's a somewhat cruel way to talk about your faction don't you think?" Serafall asked as she was swinging her legs back and forth.

"No." Aphrodite shook her head. "We used to be kings, but for the most part, Christianity tore us apart. Think of it like this, You open up Artemis's panty draw and all you see is them all folded up in hearts but yet they are all the same. But in the back, you see a red lace thong in the back hidden from everything." They looked at her like she was crazy. Aphrodite waved it off as she continued it on. "That's Issei… He's different from the rest of us. People like him and he has the potential to change things. But if he was with us he can't grow and be what he needs to be."

In the back, Athena and Artemis were listening. Athena was getting a small laugh out of what she was seeing as Artemis was getting ready to blow her top. "How do you know about that?" Artemis stood up as she asked the question.

"Know about what? The red thong? Or that you like my son?' Aphrodite looked at her with a smile on her face.

"Both!" She shouted as her face was red as a tomato.

"Oh Arty why do you think I sent Issei your way after Tiamat had her fun? Everybody likes Issei and you are no different. After Issei was born and I brought him to Olympus for the first time you didn't think I noticed that you didn't hate him for being a man? Stop trying to be that girl who wants everyone to think she's a prude. You had one bad experience with Orion so let it go. Throw out those dildos and give Issei a call. His man meat is going to be much better than those old toys."

Artemis clammed up as she sat back down as shut up not wanting to be made fun of anymore. "That's somewhat of an odd way to see your child basically pimping him." Grayfia pointed out.

"Issei is a busy bee, he does what's needed of him and then he has his enjoyment of women, the apple didn't fall from the tree. And good thing I'm not related to Zeus, But unlike Zeus back in the day, Issei knows how to treat them with respect. If he didn't, those girls would stay far away from him, but instead, the whole house is after him and one of them isn't too interested in him yet and the other two don't know how to ask. Issei is the hard worker we all looked for but was right under our noses. That's why he has all the children of the underworld rooting for him." She reached over towards Artemis and latched onto her breasts. "All over Oppai!" She squeezed them as she laughed at her son's catchphrase for his show. Artemis knocked Aphrodite's hands away "There are so many types of breasts but he likes the big ones the best!" Hera and Athena got a laugh at Artemis' expense.

"I see. I also understand why Zeus and others decided not to join us up here." Sirzechs made a mental note of it. They chatted all through the selection process of the next match. Down on the field, the fourth match was almost ready to start as they were in a wide green grass area surrounded by massive mountain structures. Gremory team Knight Xenovia and Bishop Gasper. Bael team Rook Ludora Bune and Bishop Misteeta Sabnock.

As the match started Gasper transformed into several bats as they flew across the field scouting the surroundings. Xenovia did what she did best, Durrandal in hand she raised the sword in the air as it glowed with power. She swung in all directions sending waves of holy power carving out the landscapes removing as many hiding spots as possible. Sairaorg's team was able to dodge the attacks, Misteeta summoned orbs of fire and sent them towards Xenovia trying to hit her with them. Xenovia slashed one that got close while one of the bats still nearby eyes glowed "I won't let you do that." The fire stopped in the air as it did not move.

Misteeta pointed at Xenovia "Her first, she's the biggest threat. We can deal with the vampire later." A staff came out of the ground as it popped into her hands.

"Right." The lanky man pulled his shirt as an amber aura poured off him. He rapidly gained muscle mass as he grew a tail and a mouth full of fangs as he got onto all fours. He let out a howl that echoed through the area bouncing off all the rocks as he transformed into a dragon hybrid creature.

The fire began to rain down on Xenovia from the dragon as he was launching artillery style attacks at them. "That's not good." Xenovia was slashing away at them.

"Seal!" Misteeta pointed to her staff at Xenovia. A deep purple color flooded the area around Xenovia.

As she was swinging her sword she felt the power disappear as the sword went heavy with it crashed into the ground. Chain-like tattoos appeared on Xenovia's arms as she tried to lift Durandal out of the ground. She found it to be extremely heavy as she was having a hard time walking with it slung over her shoulder. When she got behind one of the large rocks she dropped the sword in front of her "I cant use Durandal. It's not responding to anything I ask of it." She over the intercom.

I see that Bishop has the sacred gear Trick Vanish. It's able to seal a single person's abilities by consuming large amounts of stamina and magic power. It has its upsides as she was able to Seal away what I think she chose the power to wield holy swords, sealing away Durandal specifically isn't in her range yet from the drawbacks she is suffering. One of the bats swooped down next to Xenovia as Gasper saw the chains around her arms. "I know a way to remove this." Gasper said as fireballs were raining down from the sky. He transformed back to normal as he reached into a bag he had pulling out some chalk and blood. Tossing the chalk at Xenovia it started floating as it drew a magic circle.

"Gasper, can you remove it, Gasper?" Rias asked as she watched the circle being crafted.

"Yes I can, I know how to." He pulled out a vial of blood as took a sip of it and poured the rest of it onto the chalk, it started to flow around filling in the runes. "If we use Issei's blood as the medium it will overpower the curse and lift it."

Xenovia looked at Gasper "But if you do that then you will be without it."

Gasper shook his head "It's best this way." An explosion went off right next to them as the runes began to float. Around Xenovia's arms, the chains started to peel up as they dissolved once off her skin. Another fireball landed next to them destroying their cover leaving them open as the rock was destroyed sending rocks everywhere.

Xenovia felt her power returning as the chains were almost removed. She gripped Durandal feeling that she could wield the blade again "Found you." Another volley of fireballs landed near then.

Xenovia slashed away destroying some of them but some got through as it struck Gasper. She lifted her blade as it glowed brightly. As Gasper was laying down in the crater he rolled over blood dripping from a cut on his forehead, his eyes shined brightly as Misteeta and Ludora legs were frozen. "DO IT!" Gasper screamed out as Xenovia swung down with her sword. The massive wave of holy power rushed towards them as they were unable to dodge it. Ludora tried to flap his wings but nothing happened as the wave collided with them.

As the explosion hit she ran over to see Gasper was fading away in the light of retirement. Sairaorg Bael Rook and Bishop and Rias Gremory Bishop have retired. Gasper had a smile on his face as he saw Xenovia looking over him as he faded away.

The reality of these matches finally dawned on Rias, while they were friendly matches everybody was putting everything they had into them so Rias could achieve her goals. That much was now apparent to her.

As Rias was rolling dice Issei looked over at Kiba "The pawn Sairaorg has is 7 right?"

Sairaorg has rolled a 4 and Rias with a 5. We have a total of 9 for this fight.

"Yeah the public data on his pawn is 7 pieces, but he's never been seen in a fight before."

"Isn't that odd? That fact that Sairaorg hasn't let him fight or that he hasn't fought yet?" Issei brought up a valid question as his pawn was a total outsider.

"So it's his Queen then?" Kiba asked looking at Rias.

She nodded "Yeah... It's going to be his Queen Kuisha Abaddon."

Akeno stood up "Then I'll go."

"Are you sure about that?" Rias asked, "His Queen is powerful and has a massive pool of demonic power along with the hole ability."

"Issei could beat her with Triaina, but we need to save him for later. And sending the rest in to take her down would be pointless when I can deal with it." Akeno pointed out

"Alright then Akeno, I'll leave it to you."

Akeno made her way onto the field as they were standing on top of an endless sea of skyscrapers. "So it was going to be you, after all, Priestess of Thunder." Kuisha said to her.

"It is nice to meet you." Akeno said as both girls extended their wings as they flew into the sky. Akeno was the first one to attack as she sent a flamethrower like an attack towards Kuisha.

It was countered as Kuisha did the same only with water to douse the flames. Akeno made the change-up sending some ice spears at her through the water so they could gain some extra mass on the way. But Kuisha blew they away with wind magic scattering them in all different directions.

Each one had a counter for each other as Akeno raised her hands as they tingled with electricity. The sky darkened as a bolt of lightning from the clouds was sent down as Akeno combined it with her power sending it towards Kuisha. The air all around them was poping as it neared Kuisha. "How about this?" Akeno said as it was almost impacted.

"Hole" Kuisha said as all around her deep dark holes appeared absorbing the attack. As Akeno's lighting died down it was seen trapped inside of the black holes bouncing around. "I can do many things with my hole ability. I can even redirect it." She snapped her finger as the spheres disappeared and reappeared next to Akeno surrounding her leaving her no place to move. "You can have this back." The holes faded away leaving Akeno's holy lightning as it touched her. The lightning was electrocuting her as the holy portion did its work weakening her. As the power dissipated Akeno fell as smoke coming off her body as she was covered in the blue light of the retirement system.

Rias Gremory Queen retires.

The loss of Akeno was felt all around as Rias rolled the dice once again

BOXCARS! WE HAVE A 12, SAIRAORG IS ABLE TO FIGHT!

Sairaorg moved up to the transportation circle as Kiba stood up with Xenovia and Rossweisse. "Save your energy, we total 11, and were going to soften him up before the people see that fight they want to see."

Rias looked at Kiba "Are you sure about this?" She asked knowing what was going to happen if they fought him.

Kiba nodded "We are aware that we cant wing against Sairaorg. But what choice do we have? Sit by when we can do something? No, but we will do something positive for the team." Xenovia and Rossweisee agreed with Kiba.

Rias didn't stand in their way as they made their way to the battlefield. They were on an island in the middle of a lake that was surrounded all by trees. Sairaorg saw the three of them standing there. "So she decided on this plan" Everyone drew their weapons as a dense light blue aura formed around Sairaorg as it was pushing foliage around from the wind pressure it was creating. "Since you have chosen this route I will not hold back." He took a single step in their eyes as if he teleported.

"Don't think so!' Rossweisse was firing all different types of magic spears at him following his movements as he got close to her. He dashed right for her as he took all of the hits, once he was up close he landed a punch into her gut sending her flying off. Her hang time was impressive as she eventually fell back down into the water.

Kiba made a wall of swords as Sairaorg made his way from where Rossweisse was shattering through them leaving them just enough time to move. "He's fast" Xenovia said as she was slashing her sword around sending waves of holy power at Sairaorg making him dodge them.

While Kiba was doing his best to dodge Sairaorg but his best wasn't good enough. Sairaorg fist was faster as he made contact with Kiba's shoulder rag dolling him down the slope. Xenovia sent more waves of energy at Sairaorg as he turned around and put up his defense. As the waves got close the aura around his body extended dispelling her attacks and sending a shockwave out across the battlefield. "It will not be easy to take me down."

Is he using Senjutsu for that aura

No, That's Touki. It's not something you see too often with Devils, but when you train your body to an extreme you can tap into your life force that multiplies your raw power. And when your strong enough with it you can make it visible.

Magic rained down on Sairaorg as it exploded on contact with him and the ground. Up in the sky, Rossweisse was raining magic down as in her left hand she was holding on a thin white sword. She descended while keeping the pressure up, landing next to Kiba and Xenovia she letup her blasts letting the smoke clear.

Sairaorg stood up from being pinned down from the blasts as he was covered in dirt. Shaking it off he saw the three of them together. "That was an impressive array of spells." Sairaorg put his foot down rushing towards them as he got in Rossweisse's face uppercutting her but hitting her in the abdomen shattering parts of her armor. As she went flying she was engulfed in the retirement light.

Rias Gremory Rook retired in one punch.

Kiba and Xenovia were pushed away from the shockwave as they recovered. Kiba summoned his Glory Drag Troopers as they ran towards Sairaorg. As they got in striking range he punched them with minimal effort destroying each one, as he plowed through he reached Kiba. Kiba swung his sword but it was no match for the train wreck in progress as the sword was broken and Kiba was sent skidding across the ground. Xenovia got in close swinging Durandal down hitting Sairaorg right above the elbow.

He was resisting the blade as Xenovia funned as much holy power as she could muster into it. Sairaorg did the same resisting the blade holding it off, Kiba stumbled back to his feet getting behind Xenovia as he grabbed hold of Durandal pushing down on the blade as well. "GO!" When he added his power to the blade it produced an even greater aura as the blade sank into his arm. It sliced through Sairaorg's arm as it dropped on the floor. Xenovia and Kiba had achieved their goal, any more they could inflict now was a bonus.

As Xenovia hoised the blade out of the ground Sairaorg turned around and kneed her in the gut and sent her up in the air as he followed up with a rapid set of kicks. Xenovia's eyes rolled into the back of her head as blood drolled out of her mouth, she faded away as she was suspended on his boot.

Sairaorg moved over to Kiba grabbing ahold of his face and slamming him into the ground making a small crater where he was. Kiba was picked up and tossed aside rolling across the floor as he was able to look up at Sairaorg "We achieved our goal. They can take you from here." Kiba said weakly struggling to stay awake as he faded away.

Both Knights retired winner Sairaorg Bael.

Rias watched as Sairaorg used his Phoenix tear to reattach his arm back in the stadium. She was conflicted at the levels they went to trying to even the playing field.

Please roll your dice.

The two of them did as such watching the dice bounce around Rias landed on a 5 as Sairaorg landed on the 4.

Seeing the two dice on screen Issei stood up and moved over to the teleport. "I'll be right back." Issei was whisked away to the next battlefield.

Issei appeared not far away from Sairorg's queen as they were on a dirt-filled ground in the middle of the colosseum that was enclosed. "My Master Sairaorg wishes to see you in a serious fight."

Issei raised an eyebrow at that "I'm sorry then miss because this isn't the fight for that. People want to see another fight." He waved his left hand as the gauntlet appeared.

[WELSH DRAGON BALANCE BREAKER!]

He walked towards her "Tell me something, Do you think that's air your breathing?"

She readied a magic circle to attack Issei. "What?" Issei dashed towards her getting up close and personal with her as he grabbed ahold of her throat. His hand clamped down as he picked her up and punched her in the diaphragm as she let out all the air that was left in her lungs.

He dropped her as she faded away in blue light. Issei was moved back to the staging grounds as the crowd was in a roar.

Sairaorg stood up on the platform and addressed the crowd "Have you see what you wanted to see? Has your money been well spent to end in a disappointment? Has the committee had enough of their special rules?" The crowd was silent "I want an everything goes match, just as we agreed upon. Not a match were limits are decided."

Issei reached his hand out towards Rias, as she grabbed onto it and moved next to him on the center stage as he lowered his helmet. "2v2." Issei called out "You and your pawn versus Rias and me. The last team alive wins this game."

The special rules are there for a reason but each king did agree upon a no limits match. Diehauser said as they waited for any indication from the top.

I'm inclined to agree with Sairaorg, everybody came here to watch a match between the Strongest Youth and the Red Dragon Emperor. As it is right now that match will not happen. Azazel reinforced the idea.

The crowd waited for any news as a few minutes passed as murmurs were heard in the crowd. Up in the booth, a paper came down as Naud read it off LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, BOYS AND GIRLS OF ALL AGES! THE FINAL ROUND OF THIS GAME WILL GO AHEAD AS REQUESTED.

Issei and Rias were moved to the final stage. It was something out of a video game as the ground made of clouds yet solid as the sky was a sparkly purple with stars in the sky.

Rosenkreutz teleported into the arena as the Arbiter This is your final match, Promotion is available. Make this something they talk about for a while now. You may begin. He said as he teleported away.

Issei promoted to Queen feeling the power shift inside of him, for now, it was stable but the fight had yet to start.

"Your team has fought well Rias," Sairaorg said as he walked forwards. "I hold no grudges over this match." He looked over at Issei "It's finally time."

Issei donned his helmet as they charged each other, the boosters on his back opened up sending him towards Sairaorg. The two of their fists collide with each other faces sending shockwaves through the area. They both sent hits to each other as the shockwaves continued. Issei felt the attacks ripple through his body as the armor did little to nothing to dampen the attacks.

[Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!]

Issei sent a solid punch into Sairaorg face hitting him on the right side of the jaw. Blood spewed out of his mouth as some dripped from his nose. "I feel the power behind that punch. Power like that isn't attained normally, almost as if you hiding something." Sairaorg said as he wiped away the blood.

"Who knows, but having to train every day has gained me some new toys." Issei looked over as the Sairaorg Pawn took off his mask and tossed it aside as his body began to rip and tear as he transformed into a golden Lion.

The identity of Sairaorg pawn is a huge lion Naud shouted out as everyone had gotten a look at this mysterious pawn for the first time.

No... That's the Nemean Lion. Azazel was skeptical at first but then saw more of it.

What do you mean Nemean Lion?

Well Zeus is most likely drunk so I'll... The door to the commentator room slammed open as a woman walked in picking up a microphone.

Hera?

The Nemean Lion was my lion that my Husband used as a trial for Hercules. Tough golden fur that was impenetrable to all forms of human weapons thousands of years ago. Zeus couldn't keep it in his pants and had to test his demi-god child to see if he was worthy of godhood. Hercules killed my lion as part of Eurystheus twelve labors.

Yes well The God of the Bible captured it and sealed it inside of a Sacred gear. It earned the class of one of the thirteen Longinus. Legend says that if you can master its strengths it could cleave the earth in two in one swing. While unlikely it's also said that the lion can protect its possessor from projectile weapons. It's been years since it was last seen, last I saw it was about two hundred years ago. Whoever must have had it last probably didn't have it for long if's been the "Pawn" of the Bael Team.

"No, the possessor was dead when I found it. The possessor of Regulus Nemea was already dead and far beyond the point of being able to reincarnate. But next to the corpse was a golden battle ax that was covered in blood as there were fresher bodies. That's when I decided to reincarnate it as my pawn." Sairaorg's story got a rise out of Azazel.

Interesting... That explains many things. Yet brings up even more questions. The fact that you were able to reincarnate a lion is one thing. I wonder if it's even a Longinus anymore. Better yet I wonder if the lion even remembers its past. Bring it to the Grigor some time, We are going to research it. Azazel sounded like a gitty school girl thinking of all the things that they could learn from it.

"Either way, pawn or Longinus that is my opponent." Rias said as she took a fighting stance as in her hands she had balls of power of destruction.

Issei and Rias both attacked in sync as she threw her first attack as Issei went to swing at Sairaorg. Seeing that the fight was back on the two of them went back to punching each other tanking hits. Something caught Issei's eye while Sairaorg's left arm wasn't as fast the right was slower every time. The pattern continued "I see."

[Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!] [Boost!]

Sairaorg's right arm impacted Issei's armor as the boosts nullified the attack for the most part.

[WELSH DRAGONIC ROOK]

The armor shifted as Issei swung his right arm into an uppercut. The massive slab of arm rocked Sairaorg sending him flying as the followup explosion sent him even further.

[WELSH BLASTER BISHOP!]

The armor shifted once again as the giant cannons appeared as green energy pooled in the barrel tips. "Dragon Blaster!" Issei fired changed energy at Sairaorg as he brought out his devil wings to stabilize his flight in the air.

The rounds hurdled through the air as the one from the right barrel impacted with Sairaorg as he narrowly avoided the left one. The explosion rocked the arena as he descended from the sky as his body was letting off a wisp of smoke from the explosion.

Sairaorg looked at Issei's armor as he descended panting for air. "That attack was strong."

A cry was heard from across the way as Issei looked over and saw Rias was down on her knees as she was bleeding from cuts all across her body. {Rias Gremory will retire from blood loss} The mouth on the lion moved as it spoke surprising Issei. {You need to use the Phoenix Tear before she retires.}

Walking over to her he pulled out the phoenix tear waiting to see what would happen. Crouching down he poured the tear onto her "It will be alright." Issei said as the tear did its work sealing her wounds.

"I'm sorry Issei that I have become the limit to this fight." Rias said as Issei helped her up.

"Not now, we can talk about it later."

{Lord Sairaorg, use me. Together we can defeat the Red Dragon with the Balance breaker.}

"Be Quiet, that power is reserved for a crisis." Sairaorg yelled at Regulus trying to keep it from talking any further.

Issei looked over at Sairaorg "Use its power."

"Are you mad?" Rias yelled as they didn't need any more difficulty winning the fight.

"This match has no meaning if I beat you and you left something on the table that you could have used."

"No, I take that back." Rias shook her head "Your stupid."

Sairaorg clenched his fist as his body began to glow gold. "Then let's do it. I doubt there will be a match like this any time again. REGULUS head my call! Turn into my armor King of Lions!"

The area shook from the power radiating from them. The Golden light exploded as the two fo them merged as Sairaorg was now covered in golden armor with a lion head on his chest. "Balance Break."

Issei pushed Rias away "You need to stay away from this."

"The Balance Breaker of Regulus Nemea, the Regulus Rey Leather Rex. You have made this a serious fight now. For that I will reward you with the first hit, so hit me with that Rook move."

He walked over to Sairaorg the armor started to shift [WELSH DRAGONIC ROOK] With a swing of his right hand it impacted with Sairaorg. He caught Issei's attack as the ground cratered. [SOLID IMPACT] The reset of the attack finished as the counterweight kicked in sending a shockwave out that caused a visible ripple on the floor.

"So this is your limit." Sairaorg said as Issei felt his blood pour out of his mouth as Sairaorg fist was planted firmly in Issei's stomach as the armor had cracked.

"You...Know...Nothing." Issei slowly said as Ddriag's crest was on the floor lighting him up in a deep red hue as it spilled out creating a web of smaller crests as glowing white-robed figures appeared in each one.

The figures looked up and saw Issei as they started chanting [Juggernaut Drive] [The Only Solution] [He has earned it.]

The crowd had no clue what they were seeing but they loved it as they were chanting Oppai Dragon.

"All around I see is cowards. Some died drunk on power, Some died as tyrants, Some tortured others because they had the power to." Issei said as his body was glowing a crimson glow. "They expect me to be no different a king of Destruction." Issei looked up as his eyes were glowing green

"I am Issei Hyoudou the Red Dragon, King of Perverts. The Oppai Dragon." Power was pooling around his body as it started to radiate off him as it was affecting the souls of the dammed "I WHO IS ABOUT TO AWAKEN. AM THE RED DRAGON EMPEROR WHO HAS DISCARDED THE PRINCIPLES OF DOMINATION." The dimension shook as the closest souls faded away "I SHALL WALK THE ROAD OF RIGHTEOUSNESS HAVING HOPES AND DREAMS, I SHALL BECOME THE KING OF CRIMSON DRAGON." The Crimson light encapsulated him "I PROMISE YOU ALL! I WILL SHOW YOU THE FUTURE THAT SHINES IN TRUE CRIMSON LIGHT!"

As the light shattered Rias was on the floor look up at Issei as his armor had transformed into a spikey upgraded crimson armor. Armor plated wings but this time where the webbing would be they were plates of energy. "Ise.." She said quietly as she looked at it

I don't believe it, his armor has changed, it's now a deep crimson.

"Yes, the power of the Queen. Cardinal Crimson Queen. It's the same color as Rias hair." He laughed as he was able to connect all of the dots. "Then let's see the power of this new form."

Issei put one foot down as he moved towards Sairaorg at a pace that put his past form to shame as his peripheral vision blurred. [STAR SONIC BOOSTER!] Sairaorg put up his guards as Issei cam in hot swinging his fists. [SOLID IMPACT BOOSTER!] Issei's arms glowed as he swung them at Sairaorg. The impacts of their fists were having a profound effect. The crowd was going wild seeing an all-out brawl as they were showing off some of the finest close quarters combat seen in awhile. The dimension they were in however was straining as the floor was cracking as the dimension was breaking down.

Issei's arm transformed into the bulk rook form as he hit Sairaorg in the stomach shattering parts of the armor as his fist was buried in the skin. Sairaorg's legs were shaking from that hit as blood spilled out of his mouth and stomach as the armor fragments cut him. "My legs why do they shake. We only have just begun this."

Sairaorg's overall power output was down as the aura he was producing had retracted greatly. "I am the heir of the House of the Great King Bael. I will endure this pain." Issei morphed his left leg into the same as before and delivered a kick to his legs. Sairaorg's armor shattered as his legs gave way, dropping him to the floor. A punch to the face broke his helmet as he was sent backward. Cannons appeared on his shoulders as the energy transfer was almost instant as they were pointed at Sairaorg. "Minimize the blast radius, Crimson Blaster!" [FANG BLAST BOOSTER!]

A deep crimson aura rocketed downrange as it caught up with Sairaorg. The explosion that followed rocked the dimension as the lightning in it flickered. As the smoke was clearing Issei walked over as his muscles ached from the strain his body was enduring. Sairaorg was on his knees as Issei didn't know what he was as there was a ghost of some sort as a woman was next to him. "Get up." She said as her hand ran over his face seeing the damage that had been caused by the fight. "Sairaorg" the voice called out "You need to stand up Sairaorg." His legs shook as he slowly got up "You said that you were going to be the strongest. Prove that dream."

A bestial roar came from Sairaorg and Regulus as it was one of the many things that had shaken the arena. "I will not lose, I will fulfill my dream." Sairaorg moved his battered body as they traded punches to the head as they both stood firm but shaky. Issei was feeling the power drain that was being put on his body.

They kept throwing punches at each other as Issei landed a punch to the chest cracking the armored face as Sairaorg's body was wavering. Issei's armor faded away as he had run out of power. Blood was covering parts of his arms as the damage the two of them caused to each other was extensive.

Sairaorg was motionless after that {It's over Red Dragon.} Regulus's voice came out from what was left of the armor. {Master Sairaorg has already lost consciousness.}

Issei closed his eyes as he gave a slight bow "Thank you for the fight. It was amazing." Sairaorg's legs finally gave out as the armor was dispelled, collapsing onto Issei's shoulder. Issei barely was able to himself up let alone the two of them.

Sairaorg Bael has retired. This game's winner is Rias Gremory! The crowd erupted in cheers seeing the match that just played out.

Up in the VIP booth, Sirzechs stood up from his chair "I guess now is a good time to announce it." A red crest of Lucifer appeared in the middle of the arena as Sirzechs stood there looking at everyone as he had a microphone in hand "Hello everyone." His voice echoed throw the stadium "I take it as you enjoyed the matches?" He asked in a tongue in cheek manner as the crowd was still pumped from the matches. "I know that was a bit of a rhetorical question but it's still good to hear that you enjoyed it. Unfortunately, this marks the end of the Young Devils matches. But before we see them making their debuts in professional matches I want to share this information with you. Most of the participants you have seen have been working to repel the efforts of the Khaos Brigade as well. And for their services many people will be receiving promotions…" The crowd was intrigued at what they were hearing. "Some larger than others for their efforts." Many in the crowd could think of some who were going to get promotions. "The official lists will be released in the following days. But I thought it would be best to give people time to speculate about."

Oppai Dragon! Oppai Dragon! Oppai Dragon! Oppai Dragon! The crowd was chanting Issei moniker as Sirzechs teleported away.

The following day was the school festival "Please line up in one row." Asia said as she was in a pink waitress outfit as she was directing traffic into a cafe they had setup.

As the line continued down the corridor Akeno and Koneko were having a Fortune telling and Purification booth. And Irina was at one of the larger rooms handing out menus as she was dressed in the same waitress outfit as Asia. Inside tables were turning it a makeshift diner as Rias Xenovia and Ravel were taking orders and having their pictures taken with their customers.

Rossweisse was watching over the activities as Issei was watching them all. Kiba came into the room and got a hold of Issei "It's your turn"

Issei put a cap on his head as he turned into Frankenstein's monster. Back in one of the isolated corners of the building Issei was hiding with Gasper who was dressed up as Dracula. The two of them popped out as a group of girls rounded the corner. "It's the pervert!" One of the girls smacked Issei across the face as the rest were huddled around Gasper "He's so cute."

Gasper tried to say in character as his fangs were visible "I'm going to suck your blood." It wasn't working too well as all the girls were engrossed in Gasper cuteness instead of how he was trying to be scary. Some were even getting a little hands-on with his face as they absolutely loved him.

As the day went on Issei took out some of the girls as they went to some of the other clubs, but it all ended at night as Issei and Rias were alone in the main club room. Rias was looking out the window seeing all the other students having the end of the festival. Issei was sitting in her chair. "Come here." He patted his leg.

She sat down straddling his lap as her legs we hung over the armrests. "Yes?"

"Rias nobody falts you for the choices you made." Rias had been looking glum after everyone had recovered from the match. He wrapped his arm around her bringing her in close "We are all here to support you." He gave her a quick kiss on the lips "It's my job as your husband to help you as well." He whispered in her ear

She slid her arms down his back hugging Issei "Thank you Issei." She reciprocated the kiss this time holding it for longer milking it for all she could in their time of being alone.

There was a crack in the main door as eyes were looking in and watching the whole time. "Xenovia don't push me." Irina's voice was heard as the door slammed open as a pile of bodies spilled out into the doorway.

Issei turned the chair around to look as he and Rias were amazed to see everyone stumbling to get up. "So when is it my turn?" Xenovia asked as she got up.

"No, I'm next." Asia shook her head as she tried to argue her spot.

"Sorry but I'm having an affair with him. It's only natural that he would pick someone like me." Akeno had a point that she would be Issei's first picks when it comes to having an affair.

Kiba peeked out from behind the girls with Gasper. "I'm sorry Ise, I tried to stop them."

Rias got up off of his lap as she shook her head not knowing what to do with them, "As a teacher I cant allow forbidden behavior. But I can allow it just this once." Rossweisse tried acting like a teacher.

"Is that a pass for here or at home?" Issei asked wanting clarification.

A cart was heard rolling down the halls as it rounded the corner "I used the kitchen and made a cake for everyone." Ravel said as she looked around and saw that there was a different atmosphere in the room than expected. "Did something happen?"

"This was a nice moment and you ruined it all." Rias said as she tried to act as she was on top.

Issei walked over to the cake "After the last cake I told myself no more cake from devils as gifts." Issei started having flashbacks of him puking for hours. "But I know everyone here can cook."

"Don't bring Sona's cake into this," Rias said as the lightbulb went on. "This is all your fault. You knew they were going to be watching us."

Issei was confused hearing that as all the other girls looked between each other and agreed "Yep that sounds about right."

"What?" Issei didn't know how to deal with this as they all just ganged up on him destroying any chance of defending his position.
