19 Chapter 19: Overwhelming Win

[What can I give your daughter?... Is that how this works? What ever happened to "Love is the one YOU choose to be with"?]: soren

Soren had started an argument the very second he entered the room making Rias look a bit upset that he might end up ruining the relationship between them, and she would end up having to marry Riser.

[How preposterous!... You Human's may think that way now, but I remember the time King Arthur had ruled over his Kingdom, and his sister was married off to another Kingdom to form close ties… It's not just us Devil's, but all Royalty… Who wouldn't want to keep their social standing as Nobles?]: lord gremory

When Soren heard Rias' father's reply he just smiled a bit before looking up at him with a serious glare in his eyes as he spoke.

[Then I offer her Power!... Do you know what triumphs both Money and Status?... That would be Power… With Power you can take all the Money you want, and with Power comes a Status in the society, be it a reputable status or one that makes the fear evident in people]: soren

[Hmm?... Power?... Hahaha! Boy, you are far from someone of Power… Quickly leave my home and go back to that pitiful Human world and never appear before my Rias again]: lord gremory

Just as Lord Gremory said this, Rias' began to have tears surface in her eyes as her cheeks became a bit puffy while the sniffles began to resound from her, but before she could say anything Lord Phenex spoke up.

[How can you let this Human leave unharmed!?... Not only did he take away Rias Gremory's purity, but he also let those 2 little gay boys of Rias' peerage molest and humiliate my son Riser… He can't be let to leave with just a slap on the wrist like this, we must wipe out his entire family in the cruelest way possible]: lord phenex

Just as Lord Phenex finished speaking Soren gave him a look of surprise as he didn't know that both Issei and Kiba had gotten their way with Riser, but after thinking about it, Soren did remember the sounds of screams of sorrow, but he thought it was normal in the Underworld.

[What boy!... Don't act as if you are innocent! I will make sure to kill you personally for my son]: lord phenex

Lord Gremory then raised an eyebrow at Lord Phenex's comment, and an idea came into his head and he began to speak.

[Okay, I've decided… Lord Phenex and Soren will fight before the entire Underworld in a fight to the death… If Soren wins, he will have proven that he indeed does have the power needed to take care of my daughter, but if Lord Phenex wins, Rias will be immediately married in the wedding that will be held in 6 days]: lord gremory

Both Soren and Lord Phenex gave a grin to this new revelation, and the both of them immediately agreed, and with that Soren went back to his room followed by Rias, while Lord Phenex went to sit next to Lord Gremory and continue talking about the upcoming wedding. The next morning came waking Soren, and as he tried to get up he noticed Rias completely naked sleeping next to him, then looking down at himself a smile appeared as he was still naked as well due to their night time activities, and thanks to Rias' Sound proofing magic, they both could be as loud as they wanted with no worries about being caught.

'So today is the fight… I wonder if I will meet the family of that Ultimate Class Devil that I killed': soren

Soren quickly jumped into the shower and cleaned himself off before dressing himself in some fancy looking clothes that he thought would make his first impression to the rest of the Devil world extravagant. Soren wore a long Red robe with Golden fire designs around the abs, and was tied together with a Golden sash leaving the robe open to show his bare chest. On the right side of the robe, it had a long sweeping Black sleeve with Red interior, while the Left side had no sleeve at all showcasing his bicep, but Soren wore a cut off Black sleeve that was tight to his arm, it also had Golden swirls around the top of the clothe close to his shoulder. Soren had wore tight Black pants underneath the robe, while he wore a Black and Gold neck piece that held the robe closed around his neck, the set of clothes complemented his Black and Red hair quite well, and Soren felt that this was a style that he would need to keep in the future, and he liked how it made him look like a powerful Ancient Cultivator. (A/N: For those wondering how the outfit looked if my description isn't up to par, I will leave it on my Discord)

Soren then walked out of the room leaving Rias to sleep a bit longer as he knew that she would be up by the time of the battle, but for now Soren planned to explore the Underworld for a bit. Soren walked through the courtyard and when he noticed nobody was around, he shot up into the air and left the Gremory castle, and after a few minutes of flying at a slow pace, Soren finally left the Gremory territory. Soren had flown around the Underworld, and caught the eye of a few Low Class Devils as well as some Mid Class Devils, but before they could question him, one look at his clothes made them think twice about moving towards him, and with that Soren was able to fly wherever he wanted.

'Hmm… The Underworld is extremely big, but there aren't enough Devil's to fill the open space anymore… I guess the Devils lost the most from the war, but it was their fault to begin with and they just tried to bite off more than they could chew': soren

After exploring the Underworld, Soren decided it was time to go back to the Gremory castle and wait for the start of the battle, and after a few hours of waiting, Grayfia had come and knocked on Soren's door to inform him of the start of the battle. Soren opened the door and when Grayfia saw Soren's attire she felt it was quite nice and matched him nicely, and Soren was then taken to the arena where the battle would be held. Soren stood in the middle of the arena and looked around to see the many spectators "Booing" him for having such a cocky personality as to fight Lord Phenex, and while observing the crowd, Soren saw both Lord and Lady Gremory sitting up in the VIP booth along with Lady Phenex, and soon a magic circle appeared just a few meters away from Soren, and with a flash of fire Lord Phenex appeared before Soren.

[Oh?... So you didn't run while you had the chance?... Hahaha! I commend you for your bravery, but you will now die for your crimes against my family along with the crime of soiling the purity of Princess Rias Gremory]: lord phenex

When Soren heard the crowd began to cheer for Lord Phenex, along with the gasps of those who heard that Soren had taken Rias' purity, while he heard some murmurs from Devils saying that Soren must have ra*ped Rias, he spoke up.

[Are you done hyping yourself for this fight?... I'm trying to go back home soon]: soren

[Hahahaha!... Home?... I'm sad to tell you, but you will be dying here today… I thought I made that clear in my earlier sentence]: lord phenex

[Die?... I'm sad to tell you, but you are just an insect compared to my power… I thought I made myself clear yesterday when I spoke]: soren

Soren had a bored expression while Lord Phenex's face began to grow a tinge of Red due to the embarrassment of having his words used against him, and with this Lord Phenex decided to torture Soren before killing him. After the small back and forth between Soren and Lord Phenex, Lord Gremory nodded his head, and a tall man with long Red hair in a White Noble's outfit with Gold shoulder pads and Black coat around his neck stood up and took the mic from Grayfia and tapped it creating a low booming sound, then spoke.

[Greetings all from the Underworld… As you all know I am Sirzechs Lucifer… Today we have all gathered here to watch the fight between a Human and one of our own Lord Phenex… These two will fight to the death, and if Soren wins he will be allowed to wed my sister Rias Gremory in the upcoming wedding next week, but if he loses… Well it's obvious he would die here today… With that said, let the fight commence]: sirzechs

When Lord Phenex heard Sirzechs give the okay to start, he immediately conjured a gigantic magical attack and sent it towards Soren, but Soren just sighed and lifted a hand and used a bit of Ki to block the attack, but the attack then exploded, surprising Soren a bit, but it wasn't something that would harm him, maybe just give him a scratch.

[Hahahaha!... Such an easy fight, maybe I put in too much power, and eviscerated that brat… Hahahaha!]: lord phenex

Just as Lord Phenex began to laugh out loud, the sounds of cheering stopped as a collective group of gasps were heard breaking Lord Phenex's laugh, but it was too late. Soren had disappeared from his spot and reappeared before Lord Phenex while the fire had started to dissipate while a trail was made through the fire explosion, and Soren had Lord Phenex by the throat and began to speak loud and clear for everyone to hear.

[Your son wanted Rias for nothing but a sexual release for his lustful desires… I simply took what I want to cherish for the rest of my life, and as for your son's purity, he was bound to be fucked in the ass one of these days, so Issei and Kiba just helped him out a bit]: soren

When Soren said those words, both Kiba and Issei blushed a bit as they saw some people looking in their direction, but soon enough the attention was brought back to Soren and his fight.

[So now… How many times do I need to kill you before you actually die?... 100… 1,000… Or even more?]: soren

When Lord Phenex heard Soren's words sweat began to form on his forehead, and soon after Soren's fist had ripped through Lord Phenex's abdomen and appeared out of his backside holding Lord Phenex's spine in his hand.

[GUAHHHHHHHRRGGGUUH!~ *Cough Cough*]: lord phenex

Lord Phenex had spewed out a mouth full of blood, but since Soren's hand had not been removed from his body, Lord Phenex couldn't recover, and as he tried to squirm out of Soren's grasp, he began to lose more and more blood, and soon after his face became pale as the life escaped from his eyes leaving his body now limp.

[So if their regeneration is interrupted they can't heal huh?... What a trashy ability… Gross, he's bleeding all over me]: soren

Soren then used his Ki and created a Kiai around his arm, sending an explosion of Ki into Lord Phenex's dead body making it explode into a bunch of blood and guts. Soren then used his Ki to protect himself from getting any blood onto himself, and after the small rain of blood Soren turned to the crowd and watched as everyone was silent, not wanting to believe Lord Phenex had died so quickly.

[Now… I have a question for the Devil's present here… Which family is missing it's young master?... I'll help you remember… He was an Ultimate Class looking for the son of the thought to be deceased Old Lucifer from the Old Faction so that he could absorb his powers and become a Super Class]: soren

As Soren said those words, many of the Devil's present had gasps due to the knowledge of the Old Faction's Lucifer still being alive, but some didn't believe it, and that's when the current Lucifer spoke up.

[And how do you know that this is true?... What says that you aren't lying and trying to scare us?]: sirzechs

[Lying?... Why would I lie? The son of the Old Lucifer is hanging out at my house right now… And for the reason I have brought it up is due to the said young master… He had killed my mother on his mission to capture him, and I had killed him for it, but I promised him that his whole family will join him in the afterlife, so I need to kill them too]: soren

Sirzechs tried to find any form of increase in heart rate that stated someone was lying, but he couldn't find anything meaning Soren was telling the truth, and just as Sirzechs was joining to speak, a man in the crowd stood up and began to shout.

[You dare to kill my nephew!?... I'll kill you here then!]: ???

Just as those words were said, an old man disappeared from the crowd and punched towards Soren, but Soren punched out and killed the man shocking everyone once again, not that Soren killed the man, but because the old man had acknowledged Soren's words to be true by attacking him for revenge. Soon, the stadium began to be filled by members of this unknown house as many began to charge Soren, but soon all of them were killed while Soren had only gained a few scratches due to the number of Devils that attacked him.

[Come on now!... Anyone else belong to this house of dumbasses?... I can kill the rest of you right now!]: soren

Just as Soren was about to start killing anyone he pleased, Sirzechs came down from the VIP booth and grabbed Soren by his shoulder and spoke.

[Calm down… They are all dead, and if they aren't, the rest are too afraid to fight you…]: sirzechs

Sirzechs tried to calm Soren's flaring anger down as he knew that Soren held power that could even rival a Maou, and if he were to marry Rias, it would let her have a safe life with the one she loves, something Sirzechs wanted from the beginning, and was secretly rooting for Soren to win the fight with Lord Phenex.

[I now pronounce Soren as the winner of this fight… He will be marrying Rias Gremory in 5 days, anyone who has been invited to the wedding when Riser was going to be wed to Rias, I hope we can still see you there for your support of this union]: sirzechs

Sirzechs then walked out of the ring with Soren and went back to the VIP box where Soren was immediately tackled by Rias who kept kissing him while Lord and Lady Gremory were surprised at the overwhelming win Soren had displayed during that fight, and while Soren was being hugged, he got a notification from Misha about the completion of the Devil's Tea Party Quest, making a small smile appear on his face.
