Chapter 40 : Battlefield

"You peasant, what are you doing here, how did you come here in the first place?"

Riser shouted again which made Issei create an orb of energy in his hand readying his attack again.

"I'm here to take back Rias Gremory and if it means I need to beat your shitty ass then I will do it! You belong in a KFC anyways!"

Issei shouted making some of them gasp and others to get angry at the insult particularly Riser.

Though when Rias saw Issei, she let alone tear fall at the thought of him coming to her rescue while all of the members of the ORC surrounded Issei to stop any guard that might try and stop him. Seeing them Issei stopped gathering energy for his attack.

"Ufufuf Issei, nice of you to come, hope you don't mind our little help." Akeno told him in her sadistic tone as lightning was dancing around her fingers.

"Nice to see you come also Issei." Kiba also greeted him as he created two swords in his hands.

"You're late." Was Koneko's greeting to him though he saw that she was grateful that he came to help Rias.

"Finally you showed your lazy ass here you weakling." Raynare told him making him sweatdrop.

"Sorry to keep you waiting guys, I needed to take care of some annoying pets down the hall." Issei replied to them as she scratches his head a little bit.

"Everyone stand down." A calm voice full of power and authority told them as everyone stopped and released their weapons and magic.

The owner of the voice was a tall and handsome red haired man with soft blue eyes. He was wearing what Issei could guest a royal armor.

He could almost immediately say that he was like a Rias only a male version of her and with a fuck tone more power.

"Lord Sirzechs Lucifer, what is the meaning of this?" One of the elders spoke not liking the idea of a Maou interfering.

"It's really simple actually. I very much enjoyed a Rating Game between both Riser and my little sister. Though I would say that the finish was a little anti-climactic.

It was still a good match though." Sirzechs told them simply clearly hiding what his intentions were.

"So Lord Lucifer, you say that the match between both Rias and Riser was all for nothing?" Riser questioned.

"No, no the match was for real Riser and I applaud you for your power and your extremely good use of it.

It would be bad if a Maou said that the result of it wasn't good, it would look bad to the older generation." Sirzechs smoothly told him.

"Then what are you saying Sirzechs?" Another red haired man told him making Sirzechs turn to him with a small barely noticeable smirk.

"Like I said father, I plan on making this event even more spectacular.

Tell me what is better than a battle between a Phoenix and Dragon?" He asked his father.

Seeing his father nod after thinking a little bit made Sirzechs make a small smile before turning back to Issei and Riser.

"You boy, what is your name?" He asked in a voice still full of authority but it wasn't harsh it was soft and warm.

Nodding Issei replied the man. "My name is Issei Hyoudou, a student of the Kuoh Academy, the current Red Dragon Emperor, and Pawn of Rias Gremory."

"Hmm... Very well Issei, what are your intentions for coming here?" Sirzechs asked while faking his curiosity which little surprised Issei.

'He is a good actor, I will give him that.' Issei thought as he decided to play this little game.

"It's simple Lord Lucifer. I'm here to bring Rias Gremory back, its boring back home without her being there.

And I'm sure that she could find a better husband than this fried chicken."

Issei replied with a small bow at the end not missing a small smirk coming from the red haired man.

"Hmm...Riser what do you say about showing us one last time the beautiful power at your disposal?

It would make this evening even more entertaining for both people here and Rias and me."

Sirzechs asked with a little narrowed eyes daring him to refuse.

Seeing that look Riser sweat dropped a little bit before nodding. "If the great Lord Lucifer asks than Riser would be more than happy to make his final show of power."

Giving him a nod Sirzechs turned to Issei and asked something that shocked all the people in the hall.

"Issei Hyoudou, what would you like if you win this little match? It could be anything you desire. Power, woman, peerage, gold."

"Lord what are you saying? How can you do this?" An Elder shouted in rage seeing what Sirzechs was doing.

"What? I asked him to fight for the entertainment for my little sister's wedding party, so it's only reasonable that we give him something in return."

He answered in laid back voice before returning his attention to Issei.

Issei honestly would very much would have like to just get his freedom back, but that would do more harm than good right now and he made a deal with Grayfia so he won't turn his back on her now.

"While that is all nice and attractive what you told Lord Lucifer.

I ask that when I beat him you give Rias Gremory freedom back and make it so that she won't be thrown into another marriage agreement without her consent."

Issei replied getting a nod of acceptance from the red haired Maou.

"Good that could be achieved, of course, if you win Issei Hyoudou. Now let's get this battle started."

Sirzechs told him as he snapped his finger teleporting everyone at the battlefield that resembled a ring with four king pieces on four corners.

In the middle of the field, Issei and Riser stood glaring at each other. Issei was still in his school uniform while Riser changed in his fighting attire with a long white sleeved shirt with a V neck that showed his chest and black pants with also black shoes.
