Another day of school has passed. Izuku, Asia, Ibara and Kiba were walking their way towards the old school building to meet up with Rias, Akeno, and Koneko.
This was after the whole 1st years declaring war against the hero course students of Class 1A since they survived a villain attack at USJ and was saved by a mysterious individual who defeated the creature known as Nomu.
It was during lunch was when Ochako Uraraka wanted to talk with Izuku and his friends at that time...with the poor girl being a blushing mess because of Hiori Shinso who just laughed at Izuku's face that showed a look of seriousness.
Izuku just sighed while as his friends made their way towards the ORC room.
"Evening, folks."
The three devils, along with Ibara arrived at the ORC room. Within the room, they found Rias, who had her eyes closed with her hands resting on her desk, Akeno, who was standing next to her with her hands held together, Koneko, who the three Devils and Ibara joined at their side, and someone that Izuku didn't expect to see again.
'It's Ms. Grayfia. Why is she here?'
"Good. Everyone's here," Rias said as she stood up from her desk.
Grayfia turns her head to face Rias.
"My lady, if you don't mind, may I have permission to speak openly?"
Rias raises a hand towards her, giving the maid the cue to be silent. She then takes a deep breath faces her servants with a serious expression.
"The truth is…"
Before she could say another word, everyone turned their heads toward the source of a bright orange light that suddenly appeared in front of the entrance/exit of the club room. Upon further inspection, they saw an orange magic circle with a different symbol than Rias' clan's symbol.
The magic circle then erupted a large amount of flame from it, showing a silhouette of a man who was facing the double-doors.
Rias scowled at the figure, knowing exactly who he is.
"Phenex."
Izuku turned towards Kiba as he said those words with his eyes having a hint of a green glow.
{Partner remain calm, you'll get the chance to rip that bastard up}
'hope I don't have to wait too long Ddraig'
Eventually, the flames died down, revealing a young man in his early twenties with short blonde hair. He wore a burgundy blazer with matching pants, a white dress shirt that was only one button off underneath the opened blazer, and had black dress shoes.
While Ibara and Asia were surprised by the man's arrival, Izuku had his sights on him with narrowed eyes.
'So this is the man whose in an arranged marriage with Rose? I refuse to accept that...'
Izuku stopped in his thoughts when he heard the blonde man breath out a sigh.
"Ah, and Riser has arrived in the Human Realm."
Izuku made a weirded out expression at the man who calls himself 'Riser'.
'He refers to himself in third person? Really?'
Riser turns around and sets his dark blue eyes on Rias while allowing a smug smile form on his face.
"I came all this way to see you," his grin widens. "My beloved Rias."
'beloved?' Izuku's eyes narrowed as he heard that statement. Shifting his eyes left, he noticed Rias' scowl.
'Judging by that look on her face, she doesn't seem to like him in the slightest. Hell, this bastard, he's full of himself.'
"Izuku-sama,"
Izuku hear Grayfia call out his name. He turns his head towards her, giving her his attention.
"This man is Lord Riser Phenex-sama. He is a pure-blooded Devil of noble birth, third heir in line to the house of Phenex. He is also fiance to the next head of the house of Gremory."
That set a switch for Izuku as he walked in between Rias' and this bastard who was surprised at what Izuku did with Rias' feeling her hand being held by Izuku while his focus was on the devil infront of him.
"Well then, I'd like to say this--Hands off, she's not yours" as Izuku said this, Risers eyes narrowed.
"Do you not know who I am?" Riser said with annoyance laced within his tone, as Izuku simply held Rias within his arms--making the redhead to blush, "No--should I care that I'm looking at a Kentucky fried chicken Motherfucker" Saying this with smirk.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After settling down, if you can call it that, Riser was now sitting on the sofa next to Rias with his arm wrapped around her neck, stroking a few threads of her hair roughly. Akeno has served the Phenex Devil tea while Izuku, Asia, Kiba, Koneko, and Ibara stood and watched the scene from behind the sofa behind the tea table and the sofa where the two High-class Devils were sitting.
"Lovely," Riser spoke after taking a sip from the tea cup. "The tea prepared by my Rias' Queen is most delicious."
"Thank you for the compliment, sir," Akeno replied, slightly bowing to him before regrouping with the other Gremory Devils.
'Akeno-senpai doesn't seem to like him either,' Izuku noted in his thoughts when he heard the slightly agitated tone in her voice. 'Can't blame her....after all he has a major stick so far up his ass I keep on wondering if he's related to a certain blonde egotistical Pomeranian with fucking rabies'
Izuku thought as him, as well as the other Gremory Devils, minus Ibara being the only one who isn't a Devil , and Grayfia, have narrowed their eyes further at Riser as his hand was reaching for her leg to rub it.
Before he could stroke it at least two or three times, Rias swatted his hand from her and stood up from the sofa.
"That's enough, Riser!" she snaps. "Get the wax out of your ears already! I have no intention of ever marrying you!"
"That won't do, my darling," Riser countered with a grin. "Riser believes the situation of your household is quite too serious for you to be selfish. Keep in mind, it's imperative for Devils to remain pure-blood. We're still recovering our numbers from the great war between the three factions."
"I will not bring my family to ruin! And I'm willing to take a husband!"
"Splendid," he replied with a smile. "Then let's-"
"But I won't marry you!"
Riser's smile drops to a frown. His eyebrows then furrowed, showing his slight anger towards that sentence.
Rias continued from there.
"If I'm going to marry someone, it's going to be who I acknowledge! Even the Devils from the old noble house have the right to choose! My father, my brother, and my whole clan made the decision to pair me with you because they were in too great of a rush! Now, I will say this once more,"
Rias sets her dark glare at Riser before finishing with: "I will not Marry you!"
Rias made a slight surprised expression when Riser lifted her head up by her chin to face her eye to eye. He looked annoyed after hearing Rias say those words, as shown by his narrowed eyes, furrowed brows, and frown.
"You know, Rias, Riser bares the reputation of the house of Phenex."
His eyes narrow further, as does Rias'.
"And having you damage it is unacceptable."
Riser said the last part with a hint of fury in his voice.
This prompted the Gremory Devils, minus Ibara,Asia and Grayfia to get into a battle stance with glares of their own at the Phenex Devil.
Riser then shoots a glare at the Gremory Devils.
"Riser doesn't care if he has to turn your servants into ash,"
He looks back to Rias while gritting his teeth.
"You will return to the Underworld with me!"
Riser's dark-blue eyes turned fire-orange as a dangerous flame-like aura began surrounding the room. Rias retaliated by summoning her Demonic Power while her blue-green eyes turned crimson-red. The aura's were clashing with one another as both High-class Devils were having a stare down.
But that came to an end when they felt the ground shake and felt a power that far exceeded their own everyone turned their attention towards Izuku, who was the one that was producing this much power while his eyes were focusing on the Prick that just gives off too much of Bakugo.
Riser couldn't help but shiver with Rias' having a look of shock as she felt that familiar presence.
"There's no need for incineration."
Izuku turned his attention towards Grayfia as she sent her own condensed power that made Izuku calm down a bit as she not only stared at Rias'and Riser but also Izuku with a dangerous glint in her eyes.
"My Lady Rias-sama, Riser-sama, as you know, I'm here by order of Sirzechs-sama. Therefore, there will be no disruption of peace."
Hearing the cold serious tone in her voice, Izuku could only clicked his tongue with him feeling a hand on his shoulder that came from Kiba.
Grayfia took notice of Izuku as she didn't feel this much power the first she saw him in fact it made her curious just how powerful he can be.
Before she could think about it, she heard Riser chuckle while letting Rias go and shrugged at the maid.
"When told such an ominous thing by one who is known as 'The Ultimate Queen', even Riser can become a little fearful."
Izuku noted what Riser said while staring at him with narrowed eyes, with the latter not noticing him.
'Well, at least his brain's not that fried.'
He and the others paid attention to Grayfia, who continued to speak with Rias and Riser.
"My master anticipated there would be a conflict like this. As such, he has assigned me a last resort should communication break down."
"Last resort?" Rias asked with a raised eyebrow. "Care to explain?"
"If my Lady insists on putting her personal preferences above those of her family, she is to settle this via a Rating Game with Riser-sama."
Rias widened her eyes when Grayfia mentioned that.
Izuku however was thinking of this wondering what this Rating Game was but before he can figure it out he felt a tap on his shoulder and watched Kiba who gave him a smile,"it seems You're curious about the Rating Game?"
Izuku just nodded his since he wasn't the only one since Asia and Ibara wanted to know as well.
"It's a game noble Devils play with each other. Long story short, they and their servants compete in battle to determine who wins."
Izuku raised an eyebrow at Kiba's explanation.
"Like chess, except filled with action?"
"That's right," replied Akeno. "It's the reason we have individual powers that are inspired by what we call: Evil Pieces, In order to play in the Rating Games.
"I see," Izuku said with a whistle. "That's good to know."
"In other words, they decided to have me fight against Riser in a game as a last resort if I refuse?" Rias asked, her face morphing into anger and frustration as she tightens her fists. "Just how far are they intending to interfere with my life to feel satisfied?!"
"So do you decline to participate in the game?" Grayfia asked her.
"No, I won't," Rias replied immediately, giving Grayfia a stare. "Since this is a chance for me to be free, I'll compete in the Rating Game!"
"Ha! You're really going to do it?" Riser asks her with a smug look on his face. "Keep in mind that Riser's already a mature Devil who has played through numerous Rating Games and has scored numerous wins for himself."
"I don't care!" Rias retorted, pointing a finger at him. "I will compete in the game, and I will defeat you, Riser!"
Riser closes his eyes with a "Hmph" while smirking.
"Very well, Rias. If you win, do what you please. But if I win, you will be my bride."
Rias nodded while glaring at the Phenex Devil, accepting his terms.
Grayfia nods towards the two High-class Devils.
"Understood. I, Grayfia, have confirmed both sides' decisions. I will be in charge of the game between the two households. Is that okay?"
"Yes."
"Yeah."
Grayfia bows her head in response and lifts it back up.
"Very well. I will inform the two households after Riser-sama takes his leave."
Akeno taps on Izuku's shoulder, getting his attention, and whispers in his ear.
"By the way, only mature Devils are allowed to participate in the games. She never had much opportunity to practice in battle for them."
Izuku widened his eyes in surprise at her statement.
"So are you saying we're at a disadvantage?"
"We've got more to worry about than that," Koneko interjected, keeping her icy stare on Riser.
Riser then turns his head to Rias, getting her attention.
"Rias, I have to ask. Is this group the extent of your servants? They're all you have?"
Rias glares at Riser.
"Only one here isn't part of my Peerage, what are you getting at?"
"Ha ha ha! Then this game will be a laugh! Only your Queen, the Priestess of Thunder can fight on par with my adorable servants. Also,"
Riser turns his head left and snaps his fingers. After he did that, a large orange transportation circle appeared at the same area his own. After erupting in flames, it revealed fifteen gorgeous women.
"While you have only five pieces," Riser continued as he pointed at the women with a wide shit eating grin. "Riser has a complete set."
The women who were a part of his peerage, most of them having neutral faces consisted of the following:
There were two smiling twin loli girls with short turquoise hair tied to one side in a yellow ribbon, both opposite sides to each twin, and blue eyes. They both wore gym outfits, which consisted of a white T-shirts with blue accents, short black leggings that could almost show off the curves of their butts, blue sneakers over knee-high socks, and an orange wrist band on their right wrist.
Next to them were two twin catgirls with and the same hairstyle as one another, having long hair that reached down their rear ends, except one had blue eyes and red hair tied in a braid with a pink bow while the other had red eyes and blue hair tied in a ponytail. They both had a fang sticking out of their mouths, the redhead having one on her right, and the bluehead on her left, mirroring each other. They wore white sailor uniforms that were too small on them, that you could see their abdomen, shoulders, and lower breasts exposed. They also wore fighting gloves that matched their hair color, black short skirts and leg guards that too matched their hair color, which also exposed the heel and forefoot and midfoot of their feet.
Two of the women, one having shoulder length light-brown hair, dark-brown eyes, and the other having brown shoulder length hair, blue eyes, and were both wearing sleeveless french-maid uniforms, except the light-brown haired girl's was brown and had a heart shaped chest piece, cuffs, and wore light gray tights, while the brown-haired girl's was black, exposed her cleavage, and she wore forearm finger-less gloves.
The girl next to them had tanned skin, amber eyes, and pale-blue hair that was tied up at the top with the rest of her hair flowing down her back. She was not wearing any footwear, but she did wear a bikini made up of metallic underwire brassier and a silk loincloth that exposes her sides. She also wore a silver colored tiara and neck rings with a ruby and blue gem respectively, along with ruby orb earrings, a snake-themed bracelet on her upper arm, and a transparent pink veil across both of her arms.
The young girl in front of those three had light-brown eyes and blue hair styled in four short ponytails, two were pointing upwards, while the other two were pointing downwards, with the front of her hair having split bangs going across her forehead, with side bangs framing her face. Her attire consisted of a white haori with a red obi under her red happi. She also wears bandages on her forearms and shins, black guards over her hands, and white socks with a pair of zori shoes. She could be seen holding a wooden staff in her right hand.
The next girl had light-brown eyes, and black shoulder length hair tied on opposite sides. She wore a kimono with a color pattern of purple, orange, and pink.
The girl next to her had blue eyes, and blonde hair tied into twin-tails with large, drill-like curls and blue ribbons keeping them in place. She wore a pink dress with a darker pink bow in the middle of it.
The next girl looked like a tough, ruthless one, having gray eyes, and short light brown hair with three red highlights across. She wore a plain white mask that only covers her right side of her face, a black biker's jacket that exposed her cleavage with matching jeans, fighting gloves, and three leather straps on both of her arms, and two more on her right calve. Her clothes appear to have some parts cut off, with the jacket exposing her abdomen, and the right pant leg was missing, exposing the bottom right cheek of her ass.
The girl next to her looked tough too. She was a tall woman with brown eyes and black hair tied into five twin ponytails going around her head. She wore a white top with black accents that have a diamond shape on the chest area, showing off her cleavage, red shorts, and armored knee-high boots with matching gauntlets. A large Zweihander sword can be seen resting on her back in its scabbard.
The next girl looked like a Chinese kung fu fighter. She has blue-green eyes and shoulder lengthed black hair with two white buns on both sides of her head. She wears a navy-blue qipao with golden accents, which was open at the chest area, causing her cleavage to be exposed, and it was easy to tell that she was not wearing any underwear at all. She also had a white sash around her stomach and wore black, low-heeled shoes, and black arm-guards over her forearms.
The girl next to her with emerald-green eyes and short light-brown hair with white headband wrapped around her head appeared to be a Knight, judging by the full set of armor with black accents she was wearing despite wearing a light-gray dress. She was equipped with a broadsword sheathed on her right hip of her weapon's belt, and a dagger sheathed on her left.
And Finally, there was a voluptuous, busty woman with purple eyes and matching lipstick and wavy hair that falls all the way down her back, with the front right of her hair falling over her breast and covers her right eye, while the left falls near the top of her skirt. Her attire consisted of a navy-blue tunic with gold accents, with the top revealing much of her cleavage, and a pale-blue skirt with open sides, revealing her thigh-high stockings with garter belts underneath her black shoes. Over top her clothes, she wore a white overcoat with black and gold accents and matching pauldron. She was also holding a wand in her left hand.
Izuku scanned the girls with slightly wide eyes and slightly opened mouth in shock....with his eyes twitching a bit
'These girls… Are Riser's servants? Then that means…'
After remembering the knowledge of Devils and their modern logic, Izuku then put two and two together and deadpanned at the girls with a "this has to be a joke" frown. He then turned his head towards Riser and aims his deadpan right at him, not blinking for a second.
'This... fucking....pedo'
