Rating Game: Masaru vs Diodora Part 3

Diodora was shaking with anger, humiliated. He was complete Humiliated in a Rating Game in front of so many people but he could not attack because once he does he will give the Devil Kings a reason to investigate him and he could not allow himself to be exposed till he got Asia.

When he thought of Asia all the anger in his body faded like it never existed causing the surrounding girls to shiver in fear, him losing his anger so swiftly meant another nun just like them came in the eyes of this monster, but they soon remember which one it was that he was after.

Masaru gave Ulrika a kiss and hug similar to what he did with Everest since it was only a basic courtesy to reward his girls for their performance, Masaru was called forward once again to throw dice but this time the dice was at 8.

[Oh! To think Diodora has the chance to appear or will he send his queen!? I wonder who Masaru would choose! It seems a real epic battle is about to unfold!] The announcer hyped up the people causing the stadium to shake from the cheers the people were unleashing, Masaru looked at his girls wondering who he should send out this time but he already thought of two girls...

Diodora sent out his Queen who specialized in Fire magic and Masaru have chosen Ingvild to make her debut, it was no surprise Masaru sent out his queen since he was monitoring Diodora even now as he wanted to see if Diodora has contact with someone from Qlippoth which he was still investigating.

"What a beautiful girl!"

"So this is the queen of Masaru? I approve!"

"Damn! Why are they all so beautiful! I'm jealous!"

Ingvild was wearing a white dress slit open by both sides of her legs wearing tight long pants underneath, she was no longer using a staff but she had bracelets around her wrists to assist her controlling her massive amount energy to allow her not to wastefully use it.

Masaru was caressing his chin 'Did I overestimate Diodora's value? from what I remember the people in Khaos Brigade did not want this fool to lose except for Shalba whom I convinced, it should have caused the other factions to make their moves to convince me to lose purposely'

Masaru leaned backwards since he already laid the trap he can only wait and see if the prey will grab it.

"Is this the queen of Masaru? Why the hell does she looks more like a real queen compared to the other team's queen?"

"What a face slapping difference!"

"It seems Masaru cares more about his women compared to the other man, there sure is variety of masters!"

Diehauser looked at Ingvild who stood there quite proudly, a warm smile form on his lips 'My daughters-in-law are all impressive' He thought but did not comment on this scene, however, Serafall was going ballistic

[Vild-chan!! Please be sure to join the Magical Girl team!]

Ingvild who heard this wanted to look away feeling embarrassed but she harden her heart as today she wanted to etch in the mind of the people she is the queen of Masaru's peerage and refuses to disappoint him, the opposing team's Queen look at Ingvild as a trace of Envy could be seen flashing for a moment in her eyes.

"You're quite lucky to have such a Master" The queen spoke.

Ingvild who already prepared herself mentally to fight which she did not like, she was smiling warmly "I am, not only did he save my life twice. He even cares for me and loves me dearly"

She answered flawlessly causing another uproar in the stage, because there was little information about how Masaru met his girls for some reason most of them go onto DeviTube to send requests to the customer service they wish to see an interview with Masaru and the questions was targetted at the girls he met.

The queen simply snorted waiting for the Announcer to give the signal.

[Both players are in] 'But what a contrast... It's like looking at a Queen vs Consort instead of Queen vs Queen' The announcer thought secretly before continue [Let the Game begins!]

Soon several magic circles formed around Diodora's queen who chose to go all out before unleashing a volley of fireballs at Ingvild, Ingvild remembered her Master's teaching of using the formula to create water from air.

So she unlocked the seals on the bracelets temporary to give herself a burst of explosive power suppressing the opposing queen while destroying the fireballs the moment it touches her demonic energy.

"The hell!?"

"This woman is too overpowered!!"

"I heard she is a Leviathan descendant, guess that is the bloodline of the old Demon Lords for you"

When the seal reactivates she could control her demonic energy far better as she starts to gather the hydrogens atoms and Oxygen atoms within the air in a ratio of 2:1 before combining them, slowly around her body water began forming with the appearance of Bubbles at first before turning into spheres of water.

The queen knew if this is completed she would lose but never would she have imagined Ingvild was still holding back as she just remembered something she had to do, "Does your master really love you? You know if you ask we can save you"

The queen shook feeling surprised her very own enemy is prepared to help her, she could even sense the sincerity in her voice which was the reason she was surprised. She said nothing but looked in the eyes of Ingvild with an appreciation for her thoughts before she unleashed several fire arrows followed by a massive fireball.

Although Ingvild's speciality was not ice, however, she still could use wind magic to manipulate the air to remove the heat from within her water spheres slowly causing them to turn into ice although within the centre it was just ice-cold water.

She pointed at the fire arrows countering them with her smaller spheres and her bigger ice sphere was smaller than the fireball but the heat from the Fireball was not a match against the coldness of the sphere.

BOOM!!!

An explosion went off when ice and fire collide against each other followed by a thick mist to cover the area around them. Ingvild used trackless steps she learnt from her master to reappear behind the queen knocking her out swiftly, she hated torture from the start and prefer to end her enemies fast.

[Diodora Queen Retired! What the hell was that!? I lost signs of Ingvild's movements!? Diehauser could you perhaps share us what happened here?] The announcer asked since what Ingvild used was the second level of trackless steps, which was to obscure one's presence not only from your foe but also surrounding spectators.

Diehauser smiled but Serafall answered instead, [That is a radical movement set that Masaru normally uses, it will only be natural he would teach his girls how to use it. Although I am not sure how the mechanics of the move works but combining movements with breathing it allows the one using the technique to slip into your subconscious mind. What does that mean? Just search it on DevOOgle]

The announcer was a bit shocked he had some understanding of the working between the Conscious and Subconscious 'To be able to slip your existence into the subconscious? What in the world did this genius create?' The announcer thought as he glanced at Masaru with interest.

Masaru welcomed Ingvild with a warm embrace and a kiss, "To think you would shock the people with your presence alone"

He felt it was really a complete turn around for the usual timid but cute Ingvild to suddenly become so assertive and dominating, Ingvild's face exploded and became beet red, she was at her limits for enduring before she leaned onto Masaru's chest.

He gently caresses her hair before allowing her to sit next to him so she could calm down, 'It looks like she pushed her limits to endure the embarrassment huh'

Masaru stood up once again picking up the dice, but he did not toss it immediately but swept his gaze towards Diodora who was shaking, he knew Diodora was furious but the white face told him he was quite shocked

'That's right, you who looked down on my girls back then will come to realize I don't raise kitties, I am raising tigers, winged tigers that can soar into the skies' Masaru thought before tossing his dice allowing it to fall on 4 while on the opposing team's side, Diodora tossed 2 bringing it to a total of 6.

Masaru turned to look at his girls rubbing his chin before nodding towards Jeanne and Stephani. The two girls felt happy their turn finally arrived but they first gave Masaru a kiss on his cheek before vanishing off towards the new field that was prepared for them.

"HOH! So that's the Knight and Bishop?"

"Duo Blondes! What a surprise!"

"A Knight and a Saint! I am taking a liking to Demon Lord's peerage set up!"

Yet the ones facing Jeanne and Stephani was Diodora's two knights, their outfit and armour appear to look more similar like Valkyries but they were probably trying to wear the paladin uniform for ladies knights of the church.

Jeanne was wearing a white shirt, black hotpants and black Leather boots, over it, she had her silver cuirass and silver-plated skirt armour over her shirt and her rapier gifted to her from Masaru was attached to her hip in its sheath.

Stephani, however, was wearing a black one-piece dress that was short at the legs to allow her movements not to be too restricted while wearing knee height laced boots.

"Is this a model show?"

"Why is the one team all unified in one uniform but the other team is so... Diverse like a rainbow full of different colours?"

"It's quite sexy too!"

Masaru naturally had a unified uniform for his girls already prepared however he already agreed with them to only use it when they officially debut in the real Rating games so, for now, he wanted them to show their individuality to the people without pretence.

>\/<

"I am done getting surprised" Rias rubbed her forehead.

Issei was slightly drooling when he was looking at Masaru's girls but he suddenly stopped when he shivered in fear when he turned to look he saw Sona was looking at him sternly, "Issei, I know you love beautiful girls but looking at them with such a gaze especially when they are someone else's don't you feel ashamed?"

Issei who heard this had no idea why he felt his heart was hurting, "What if Masaru looked at Rias like you do with his girls?"

Issei became flustered as he felt incredibly uncomfortable, compared to Masaru in every aspect was similar to how he was with Vali,

[Partner, I believe Sona is right. Girls will naturally get pulled towards you but don't eye on treasures owned by powerful beings, you will get yourself killed] Issei nodded as he knew Ddraig was right and Masaru was his sensei, he had to respect his sensei as he does with Azazel.

Sona felt relieved that Issei was making an effort to change after being taught and spoken to by Masaru, which was why she reminded him not to display such looks openly. Especially now that she was part of Masaru's Harem she considers the girls as her close sisters, she will naturally stand up for their dignity.

It was all to give some consideration for Rias, that way potential problems if this pervert glance at the wrong girl would be minimized. She too then said the same thing to Saji who nodded at her seriously.

Saji already had a serious talk with Sona especially about how she felt about Masaru, after hearing how they met and everything that happened between them, Saji could only pull back as he knew Masaru was serious about Sona and would not allow anyone to bully her so he gave her his best wishes.

Rias was having a Romance Comedy by pulling Issei's cheeks before looking away, it seems the harem road for this pervert is still a very long road before he will succeed.

>\/<

The current field was open like a gladiator arena, no obstacles simply a wide field for them to fight in. [Let the match BEGIN!] The announcer called out.

Jeanne sprinted towards the one knight pushing her back away from her partner with her hand against the girl's metal-plated cuirass, the knight blushed as Jeanne's hand was in an inappropriate place. Although Jeanne was a girl, she still felt ashamed.

"What are you doing!?" The knight spoke at Jeanne who puled out her Rapier with a playful smile,

"Let's play" Jeane licked her lips as her eyes looked playfully at the knight.

The knight felt a shiver went down her spine as she pulled out her sword hastily to block Jeanne's stabbing, Jeanne was currently only using her natural physical prowess at this moment to learn some techniques of this girl.

'Her Swordsmanship looks like those from Romanian Church, I have exercised it but since there was someone using it in front of me I can hone it to perfection' Jeanne thought as she poured in mana to broaden the sword's blade to turn it into a regular sword blade, soon the two of them were exchanging the exact same techniques but Jeanne was getting better at an incredible rate.

[Oi oi! Is this girl training herself?!] The announcer was shocked looking at Jeanne, he simply could not believe his eyes were witnessing during a Rating game. Just how crazy is Masaru's peerage!?

He could only describe it as training, because she was using her opponent to sharpen her techniques further. Even Dieahuser's eyes were widening until he remembered what Edward said

{That girl's sword talent is monstrous as Masaru's, given a few months time she almost gleaned off some of my most powerful stances and strikes}

Diehauser looked at his son's peerage feeling quite proud, his son was displaying his women's prowess. 'Heh, feel envy you snubs. These are my daughters-in-law'

The knight felt humiliated when she too realized Jeanne was copying her stances, strikes and movements and even improving them during combat. Jeanne herself did not realize just like the other girls they were getting influenced by Masaru, slowly enjoying the thrilling feeling of battles.

Once Jeanne was certain she learnt all she could she immediately pulled back summoning her sword sacred gear, "Sorry Knight-chan, I have gotten what I wanted... But before you go, are you certain your master is worth following?"

The Knight wondered why she was asking this but her eyes widen when she saw multiple swords materializing around Jeanne before it came towards her like arrows, under the assault of a large number of swords she was ultimately defeated fast.

[Diodora's knight has been defeated!]

"Yuuto, did you teach the girl that move?" Rias asked Yuuto who only smiled wryly shaking his head,

"She learnt it on her own when Masaru asked her if only creating swords is the limit of her sacred gear" Rias who heard this turned to look back at the field, currently, Stephani was facing the knight barehanded.

Stephani was already used to dealing with fast opponents as well as her close combat skills, as a Bishop Masaru made sure to train her in fields she was weak in, Bishop have strong capabilities in Magic but normally most would neglect their physical body strength however Masaru did not.

The knight facing Stephani enhanced her body with demonic energy to increase her speed further, however the moment she came close, Stephani's body burst out a sharp ray of light burning the Knight's skin "KYAAA!!!"

"That gotta hurt!"

"That's one hell of an instant tanning session!"

"Huh? a devil that can use light attribute!? She is from Adramelech!?"

People could hear a mournful scream but even their bodies were shivering in front of this impressive light, but what appeared in the place where Stephani stood was a holy angel with four pairs of angel wings wearing a black dress, if it was not for the dress the people would have thought Heaven had attacked them.

[OH! So this is the Adramelech Family's Power of Angels! What an amazing sight of a Devil becoming an Angel] The announcer cried out in surprise once more, it was not often one could see Adramelech in a Rating game.

Hearing this even Michael who was watching this match was shocked, to think there was such power if there was no peace he would have been forced to kill this girl for his faction's sake.

'At least we have a peace alliance so I have no need to hurt innocents' He thought while looking at Stephani who raised her hand shooting out a ray of light burning the knight till she retired.

[Diodora Knight retired! My dear morgan!! The team of Masaru is simply breaking the power scales!!! First Everest with her Dragon Breath! Ulrika with human weapons remodified for Devils! Ingvild with her water & Ice magic! And now Jeanne and Stephani! Just how versatile is his team!?] The announcer hyped up the people once more, the variety of powers was truly entertaining as none of the girls had similar powers than the others.

Even children who normally looked only at Monster Rating Games were attracted to Masaru's peerage since, after all, he got a Dragon and Angel in his team! And the number of powers they had, made every move they make entertaining since it was flashy.

Masaru welcomed the two girls embracing both of them before giving each of them a kiss, meanwhile, the higher-ups of the alliance was having a discussion over Masaru.

>\/<

"Sirzech, the weapons Masaru displayed will he share those technologies with us?" Odin thought of asking as he found these new weapons quite intriguing and innovative.

"He will, but since it is his own products you will have to exchange with him. He will certainly require things only you can provide him" Sirzech answered honestly and straightforward, Odin smile grew wider as he felt quite relieved this boy was willing to trade which meant other factions can't have a single reason to try to control this boy.

"Sirzech, is it possible if I could Meet Masaru, Everest and Stephani?" Michael asked politely as always.

Sirzech was curious these three but he was not worried at all "You can, I am certain he too would like to talk with you as well"

Michael nodded before turning his gaze to look at the group of ladies surrounding a single man, even he an angel would normally hate such a sight but he could not, because of his sensitivity towards Virtues and feelings what he felt between Masaru and his girls was pure love, no hidden intentions and it looks like their completely open with one another.

'I will have to just confirm his intentions and view for the future since he holds power that can go against us while being a devil I need to at least have some evidence to calm down possible protests' Michael thought.

>\/<

"Masaru, why are you being so ruthless with Diodora? He is on our side!" Shalba contacted Masaru through Masaru's crest.

"Well with me crushing him I can make him desperate, won't it be easier to control him when he is desperate? He will not even realize he is being used" Masaru said nonchalantly.

Shalba was shocked when he heard this but suddenly he burst out laughing hysterically, "GOOD! Very good! Carry on, with this I can draw up a few more plans, Good work Masaru. Even with Katerea who died, you are more useful than she is!"

When the contact was shut down, Masaru had a complex expression then contacted Azazel and Ajuka to update them about this situation so they can monitor Diodora more closely after the match.

'Seems Qlippoth will not make their movements' He thought feeling it was a shame but at least he will move the destruction of the Old Satan faction sooner.

[Can we have the two Kings toss the dice once more!] The Announcer called out for both Masaru and Diodora to their respective podium, Masaru took up his and Diodora followed suit before the both of them tossed it out.

When the number was projected, the stadium was silent, completely silent.

Because the number that was tossed was...
