Author Note: Wasn't really in a writing mood today.

Koko and Surtr glared at each other from their positions before they both disappeared, instantly reappearing in the middle of the room, their hands locked together trying to overpower each other.

Surtr had a cocky smile on his face before it gradually disappeared when Koko wasn't budging from her place. His face settled into a scowl as he started pushing harder and harder, however Koko still wasn't moving. Surtr grit his teeth as the veins on his muscles bulged, using even more strength while letting out a deep growl as the ground around them cracked.

Koko stood nonchalantly in her place a serious look still on her face as her sharp eyes locked onto Surtr's figure.

"Weak." Koko huffed before lifting Surtr by the arms and throwing his body into one of the walls in the distance while she slowly trailed behind as the tiles behind her repaired themselves.

Surtr's body hit the wall and fell down with a thud before he quickly pushed himself up again, glaring at Koko slowly approaching him.

"Weak? Weak!? I'll show you weak!" Surtr started growing again as he jumped towards Koko and punched towards her. Koko just batted it aside and sent him flying back into the wall, however Surtr kept trying, jumping right back sending out a flurry of blows which were all deflected, the force of the blows creating impacts in the air.

A few minutes later of going back and forth, Surtr's slightly battered body suddenly caught flames as the surrounding temperature shot up, the air starting to combust around him. Rearing back he took a deep breath followed by a wave of red flames shooting towards Koko's figure, a smirk on his face as her body was enveloped by the flames.

As the stream of flames tapered off a few seconds later a large cloud of smoke had formed around Koko, extending a few dozens of meters behind her.

"What do you think about that, huh!? These flames can burn anything in existence into cinders. Gahahaha! I bet it hurts doesn't i-" Surtr said boisterously before he started laughing, taunting his opponent, who was she to say that he was weak!? He, Second Surtr was the Ultimate Rook, strongest rook in all of the underworld!

Though his laugh was abruptly cut off as Koko's figure appeared again with her arms crossed in front of her, slight burns covered her body before instantly healing, disappearing as she looked like she did before they started fighting.

"Weak." Koko repeated as she looked at him dismissively.

Surtr was quiet for a moment before his 7 meters tall frame started shaking in anger, the fire surrounding his body exploded in intensity as he shot towards Koko with his fist cocked back as a roar of rage escaped him.

Looking at the fire clad giant flying towards her Koko entered a boxing stance and ducked under it while stepping closer towards his body and with a quick rotation she punched out. As her fist made contact with Surtr the sounds of bones breaking rang out as his body was bent around it, coughing up blood before he shot away with the sound of a sonic boom lingering behind.

Koko quickly took off after him and jumped, soaring towards him as she equipped her Punching Rig using it to control her body as she reared her fist back and punched him back to the ground. His body impacted the ground with a loud sound, a large circle of tiles cracking around him before Koko quickly followed, clasping her hands together and smashing down onto his body cracking the tiles even further.

The room turned silent as Koko slowly stood back up while her Punching Rig disappeared again as she looked down on Surtr's destroyed barely conscious body for a moment before she turned around and started walking towards the spectators.

Seemingly thinking of something halfway back, she turned around again and jogged back towards Surtr and gave him another kick in the stomach making his body curl up as he let out a wheeze. Koko nodded seemingly satisfied before she resumed her walk over to the corner.

Okita hummed as he looked at Surtr getting punched into the ground by Koko. Although he was prideful and had a sense of arrogance, he absolutely had the power to back it up, as a clone of the original Surtr, Surtr Second had immense strength and durability from his fire giant heritage which was even further enhanced by the mutation rook he was revived with. Most people wouldn't even be able to put a scratch on his body, much less break it with brute force.

His flames also weren't to be underestimated as they would incinerate most Ultimate-class beings in an instant, his boasting about being the Ultimate Rook wasn't just for show after all.

As Okita was in thought Rias and her peerage were still feeling the aftershocks of the battle. Althogh it didn't last long if they fought inside a city, most of it would be in rubble or just leveled at this point.

Playing the scenario through her head made a frown appear on Rias' face. She didn't know if she would be able to follow their movements long enough to hit them with the power of destruction, even if it was the ultimate offense it wouldn't do much if it didn't hit was she wanted to destroy and she didn't have the control over it her brother did.

She didn't know if she could bear sending her peerage into a fight between beings with such power, if something happened to them because of her...

A feeling of powerlessness slowly crept up as she thought about what she could have done to stop it if such beings started fighting in the city.

The rest of the peerage were also in their own thoughts as Koko arrived and walked up to Beo, patting it on the snout at few times with a satisfied look.

"Just tell me if anyone is mean to you Beo, I'll go beat them up for you." Koko said in reassurance.

Beo huffed through it's nose making Koko's hair flare wildly.

"By the way, do you like making things too?" Koko suddenly turned and looked towards Koneko.

Koneko's body stiffened up when Koko's eyes locked onto her as an expression of confusion appeared on her face as the others emerged from their thoughts and looked over.

"What do you mean?" Koneko asked monotonously.

Koko pointed at one of her black cat-shaped hair clips as she tilted her head.

"Your hair clip, it's for information containment, right? What is it used for? Is it useful? Maybe I should also make one..." Koko started rambling to herself as Koneko looked towards her peerage in askance and was met with confusion on their faces, they looked towards Okita who was also looking curious.

"Koko?" Okita spoke up.

"Myes?" Koko blinked as she looked towards him.

"Do you know if there is anything on it?"

"Dunno." Koko shrugged as she climbed around on top of Beo.

"Is there any way for you to check?"

"Mhmm." Koko held her hand out with a 'gimme' gesture.

Okita looked down at Koneko and recieved a nod at the unasked question, he unclipped the one Koko pointed to and walked over placing it in her hand.

Koko looked at it curiously as a pair of goggles appeared on her head and she went still as if reading something before her body started shaking in excitement. Her eyes sparkled as she mumbled to herself.

"Super-class devil."

Okita's eyes flew wide open.
