58 ×Chapter 50× Let The Games Begin
*Thursday 8:00am*
*Kuoh Academy*
Haile was now on his way to school but he didn't put on his school clothes as he wouldn't be attending school anymore, he decided to walk just for that reason alone.
He quickly arrived at the school gates in 7 minutes, but this time unlike usual Sona or Tsubaki was not there to greet him but he knows why, they are all getting ready for the game.
He smiled as he walked through the barrier for the gate but this time he didn't feel anything as he pass through it, maybe because of his God technique that completely conceal his energy from anything but possibly a fellow God.
As he went through, he walk for a bit but as he saw some girls he used Teleportation magic disappearing from there appearing by the occult research club.
He walk up to the door but didn't bother to knock anymore as he opened it and walked in shutting the door behind himself as he walk down the Cordor.
He walk into the room, he looked at everyone instantly feeling a tension in the air he smiled but was mostly confused.
."Why is it so tense in here Rias you have a decisive victory. "
As everyone in the room were sitting in silence drinking tea they heard Haile's voice sound out from the door and looked around at him.
Rias smile quickly as she got up."Well it's not really a bad atmosphere just it's kinda weird is all, truth is I have never thought of the possibility of winning against Riser as we are now so it hasn't fully sank in."She said as she felt relief an more confident with his presence as it made her feel secure.
."Yeah we would definitely be destroyed without these rings, but now we can dominate any battle field at all with no fear unless we're battling God's."Akeno said as she clenched her fist excitedly as she thought of something, with this she can finish have her revenge for her mother.
Koneko remained silent as she just looked at him, she rubbed the ring in deep thought, she doesn't even know what to do with this type of power, but she had some ideas of her own.
They all had there own thoughts but now one thing was common between them they are thinking about how to use they new power for the future and no longer consider Riser as a threat at all.
Kiba on the couch was just awkward as he found out what the rings could do, he felt completely useless now, what was even the purpose of him now but as pretty boy decoration that he also not useful when Haile is around.
He look to the girls then to looked to Haile pitifully who was also looking at him awkwardly as well.
."Kiba when this is over I want to talk to you in private, I have something important to discuss with you."Haile said seriously, he will talk to him about the matter of leaving Rias peerage, he will give him the compensation though.
All sorts of thoughts ran through Kiba's mind at that moment, he couldn't think of why Haile would want to see him but he nodded anyway.
."Also about this rating game, I think you should sit this one out, you are frankly not currently qualified to participate."Haile said honestly but ruthlessly, even though he got stronger and can probably get close to hurting Riser that isn't what he ment, when the girls used the rings alot of destruction will take place and he might end up getting an unlucky blow, so Haile was looking out for him.
Kiba was not stupid, he already realized that he would only be slowing them down if he joined them in the rating game he is truly not qualified to fight, but he will still go to watch.
*Squeak*
From behind Haile the door opened and Sona and Tsubaki walked in together, Sona had a slight smirk on her face.
Rias sat back down in her seat and gained her own smirk."So is everything set up my rival, I hope they are no mistakes."She said as she rested back in her chair.
."Don't worry about that, everything will be taken care of, you better win, this is not just for your honor."Sona said as she rubbed the ring on her finger and glanced at Haile with a spark in her eyes.
Rias glanced as well realizing what she meant."Yes of course, I will not embarrass us."She said in return as she smiled slightly at her own ring.
*Shhh*
In the corner of the room Grafia appeared from a white magic circle and walked forward a bit."I hope you all are ready."She said as she bowed her head slightly at Sona and sent a glance at Haile but quickly looked away.
."Yes anytime you're ready."Rias said resting her hand under her chin comfortably.
Sona seeing everything was beginning get ready to take her leave."I will be in the student council office which has been turned into our broadcast booth, so good luck, or should I say have fun."She said as she then turned to Haile.
." Haile do you want to watch it with me or do you have your own method."Sona ask she would like him to be close to them but it was up to him.
Haile looked to Grafia with a smile on his face."Nah I have my own plan, will the devil king lucifer be watching as well my dear."He asked Grafia.
."Yes His majesty the great devil Sirzechs lucifer will be a witness to this rating game as will several others."She frowned at the dear but ignored it saying anyway as it was her duty to rely the information.
Rias eyes widened at that."Big brother will be watching."She said almost to herself, she had a conflicted expression on her face.
Even Sona was surprised to hear that, she turned to Tsubaki and motioned with her head that they will be leaving."Haile we will be going now."Sona said as she walked to the door, they can't afford any screw ups while the Satan's are watching.
."Bye bye Haile ."Tsubaki said as she bowed slightly to everyone and left with Sona also.
Haile looked to Grafia again."I would like to meet this great lucifer, he will be my brother in law anyways what better time than now right."He grin as he said that, he had realized Sirzechs isn't as much of a threat to him as he initially thought.
Most of Sirzechs combat strength comes in the form of destruction energy without it though he is still strong at Peak Super Class, he would almost instantly drop from top 15 to top 100.
With his absorb that destruction ability is practically useless, it isn't overflowing with power, infinite power like Ophis or anything just destroying anything it comes into contact with, all that will remain when he strips it off is super class.
Grafia hearing him frowned deeper as she had a bad feeling having them meet, she didn't even know why."...I think that is a bad idea, for you."She said to in a surprising gently tone shocking even herself, but she was still right, Sirzechs is a extreme bro-con, who knows how he will react.
."Oh you think so huh, I'd still like to me him though, can you make this happen, contact him now."Haile said as he looked behind him as he squinted his eyes and grin slightly.
Grafia was going to say something but a red magic circle appeared by her ear and she froze for a moment and nodded her head, she turned to Haile."You have been granted permission to meet with the devil king lucifer lord Haile."She said stiffly knowing Sirzechs was watching them right now.
."Yeah I know, Haha very intriguing man."Haile said as he smile wider and folded his arms infront of his chest.
*Shhh*
A Giant red magic circle appeared in the room, Grafia looked to Rias."This is it."She said to her as she held her hands enter locked infront of herself like a proper maid.
."*Sigh* about time, Let's go."Rias got up serious and walk towards the red circle standing on it with were arms folded.
Akeno and Koneko got up and followed her casually as they stood an the circle, then everyone gaze shifted to Kiba who was still sitting on the couch.
."Haha I think I will stay here or maybe watch with the student council, I won't be of much use at all."Kida laughed awkwardly as he said, it was kinda embarrassing to him that he lost his usefulness so suddenly.
Rias sighed as she nod in understanding and looked at Grafia.
."Are you sure Rias, you will need all the man power you can get to fight Lord Riser and even that is not a guaranteed victory, but whatever you think is best."Grafia said as she confirmed again if this was everyone Rias nodded and she nodded also and the circle glowed and they disappeared.
Now only Kiba, Grafia and Haile remained in the room Haile looked at him looking down."You've made the right decision, it's not always about pride, sometimes you just have to make smart decisions, after this ends, I'll see you on the bridge, no this is not a date."Haile said then he saw Kiba's eyes lit up and had to correct himself, maybe he misunderstood the look but he can't take any chances with that.
."Oh right take her with you to the student council."Haile said, he stretched out his hand and a golden magic circle appeared bringing with it Aika.
Aika looked around curiously, she didn't recognize the place she was in."Where is this Haile, I've never seen this place before, is this still the school?."She said as she walked closer to his, she observed Kiba and Grafia who were the only other people in the room.
."Aika this is the occult research club, yeah I know, inside is quite a treat compare to it exterior, anyway Kiba will be taking you to the student council room to obverse the Rating game, I will be going so where else for now."Haile said he held her chin gently and kissed her lips, pulling back with saliva, he looked at Kiba who was awkward and motioned with his head.
Kiba nodded he looked to Grafia and bowed his head slightly."Miss Aika follow me please, I'll take you there."He said as he walk to the door with his sword in his hand that he made disappear soon after.
Aika looked at Haile who nod and followed after him she waved at the other lady in the room before she lefted.
Now Grafia and Haile remain, Haile smile at her gently."So my dear Grafia shall we go to your husband then."He said with a smirk and folded his arms confidently.
."..I hope you know what you're doing, things are not as simple as you think, an I'd advise you to stop hitting on me, don't get yourself involved in something you can't handle."She said but not arrogantly, she is trying to show him the right direction before he got himself hurt and it will not be from her.
Haile dropped his smile as he thought of her words carefully, he wasn't scared he gleam something from her words, he looked at her expression, he smiled again.
."Shall we go then my dear."He said this time only louder, he smirked.
Grafia frowned again as she sighed."Come we shall go to meet the great devil king lucifer."She said as a magic circle appeared by her ear, a red magic circle appeared beneath then.
.'Now time to flex a piece, it sounds like she's extremely scared of him but whatever if she's scare then just solve the problem, of course not now.'Haile thought to himself as he looked down at the magic circle that glowed.
*Shhh* *Shatter*
."Huh...how, how is that possible."Grafia muttered in shock as she looked down, almost stiffly she turn her head to Haile who put on a surprise expression.
He rubbed his chin as if in thought."Sorry about that, it was probably my anti-Teleportation instinct, you know battles and all, you have to always be ready."He said with a small smile as he put his hands behind his back.
.'No way, battle, ready, that was the teleportion of the devil king lucifer himself, how can you just break it on accident, I knew it, he is strong.'Grafia though to her as sweat appeared on her forehead, she glanced up.
Another magic circle appeared this one was even brighter they stepped on it and disappeared this time.

*Occult club replica*
."We almost don't even have to do anything, but maybe we can have some fun and show off our own power to Haile, what do you guys think."Rias said with a smile as she relaxed in her chair by the desk, she never thought the day would come when she would have the power to make a decisions as big as that.
Akeno smiled as she nodded her head excitedly."What is the hurry, we can have some fun to, then punish the bad baby AaaMm."Akeno said with a moan as she imaginating the suffering on there faces as she dish out the pain brought her much pleasure.
."But we are weaker than them, we will just humiliate ourselves in front of Haile, then what disappointment?."Koneko said Splashing cold water on everyone's back, facts is always a good voice of reason.
Rias shoulders slumped."Can't a girl dream in peace, anyway we'll go, but we won't wipe them out instantly, I want to get back at him for all the suffering he caused me."She said as a glint passed from her eyes filled with rage without a bottom, made her life a living hell.(Her thoughts)

*Principles office replica*
Riser was sitting relaxed as he hugged up to members of his peerage that was blushing shyly, he had and arrogant smile on his face as he listened to the announcement.
He frowned."Rias only brought two people with her, arrogant girl, she was already on the losing side before".He said with a huff feelling looked down on.
."This will be almost to easy, what the hell could go wrong, I'll wipe the smile off that arrogant face of his by beating his little "lady"."Riser said with a grin on his face playing with the breast of his two maids, as all the members of his peerage stand at his two sides.
Behind him stood his little sister who shook her head in disappointment."Big brother, I think you should be careful, things don't seem as simple as you make it sound, they were almost to confident."She said to him gently, she then thought of Haile, he was probably the one that gave them that confident, she blushed slightly as she imagined his face but quickly shook her head, they were enemies.
."What you scared or something, what can Rias do to me, it's not like 10 days is enough to get that much stronger."Riser said to her his eyes soften a little as he spoke to her but he still spoke to her in a cold tone.
Raval sighed in defeat, but it was kinda true, what can Rias possibly do in mere 10 days, her power of destruction isn't going to do anything to her brother she is to weak, so it did indeed make sense.
."Ni and Li twins, Siris, Karlamine, IIe and Nel twins, Mira, Marion, Burent, Shuriya, Mihae, You 11 go and crush them, you are more than enough, grant no one but my Rias mercy, if that Haile is with them make him suffer."Riser said ruthlessly as he sent out 11 members even though Rias has a small group, he kinda took Ravel's words into consideration as it was better if nothing unforseen happen.
Ravel smile as she nodded in appreciation."Yes it's good to be caution, now we can win with piece of mind knowing nothing will go wrong."She said as she sighed in relief, then she thought of Haile again, she hopes they don't treat him to badly if he is indeed with Rias, even though he shouldn't as it's against the rules.
.""Yes Riser-Sama it will be done!!!"".
The ones selected said as they bow and left, 11 people walked with confident to "bully" three lonesome enemies.
."Riser-Sama what about us, Xuelan and me."A member of his peerage named Isabela asked him, she wanted to fight as well, she didn't get to stretch her limbs in a long time.
Riser relaxed in his chair and lapped his foot."Well that would be a bit much wouldn't it, right now already this battle could be considered bullying, what would the other noble devils think of me, that could ruin my good reputation."Riser said as he chuckled a bit.
.'Good reputation?.'
The rest of the girls exchanged a glance with each other, they all had the same expression and thought, baffled confusion.
