Match Between Strongest 10

"I will go," Xenovia said.

Rias nodded, "We still have three pieces, then who will go?"

"Let me participate in this match!" Gasper suddenly said,

"Gya-kun...." Koneko looked at him with a surprised expression.

"I'm a man too! I want to battle in this match!" Gasper said with his girly pose.

Rias looked at him for a while and nodded, "Then I will believe in you."

"YES!!" Gasper said.

"Let's go, Gasper," Xenovia said and looked at him who was in the commentator screen. She clenched her sword and would show her resolve in this battle.

"For the next battle, the Gremory peerage has chosen the wielder of the legendary Holy Sword Durandal, Xenovia! The other chosen player is none other than our famed and renowned trap, Gasper! From the opposing Beal team is their other Rook, Ladora Bune and Bishop Misteeta Sabnock," Naud announced.

"Well then, let the fourth match begin!" Rodriguez announced.

Misteeta Sabnock is Sairaorg's Bishop from the House of Sabnock, one of the extinct families from the 72 Pillars, which held the rank of Marquis. He has the appearance of a young boy with light green hair and violet eyes, with two identical hair ornaments; one on each side.

Ladora Buné is Sairaorg's Rook from the House of Buné, one of the extinct families of the 72 Pillars that tame the dragon. He has the appearance of a tall and lanky man with dark green hair and red eyes.

Gasper turned into a bat and started to scout the arena.

"Take this!" Xenovia didn't hesitate and swung a sword blast with her Durandal.

BOOOMM!!!

Misteeta and Ladora dodged her attack easily.

"Ladora, we need to take out the Knight first, I'll prepare for that," Misteeta said, and used her fire magic to attack Xenovia.

"I won't let you!" Gasper used his Sacred Gear to stop at the time of her attack.

Xenovia used this chance to destroy her magic.

"Got it," Ladora said and suddenly his body became strange. His body expanded and transformed into a large brown western dragon. He jumped toward Xenovia and roared, "OWAAAAA!!!"

Xenovia frowned and said, "Gasper, can you buy me time?"

"Yes!" Gasper said and flew toward Ladora with intent to stop him.

Xenovia raised her Durandal and started to gather her magical energy into her sword. She would blast them with her sword blast. Her magic power started to run amok but suddenly Misteeta, who had been hiding, used this chance to attack her.

"This is the time! Oh Holy Sword, seal your own powers!" Misteeta raised his staff and cursed her.

Suddenly there was a mass of light which surrounded Xenovia. After that, she saw there were several strange marks on her body and she couldn't use her Durandal anymore, "What's happening?"

"Trick Vanish is a Sacred Gear is capable of temporarily sealing its target's abilities by draining every bit of its user's physical and magical strength, Azazel explained.

Yuuki thought this Sacred Gear was quite interesting. He knew that this Sacred Gear would be awesome to have when the user had a large amount of physical and magical strength, 'During that time, they can beat their opponent thoroughly.'

"Will they be able to defeat both Gasper and Xenovia nyaa?" Kuroka asked.

"I'm not sure, but they're a sure strong combination, Misteeta will use his Sacred Gear to seal their opponents and Ladora will turn into a dragon to defeat them thoroughly," Yuuki said.

"Oh, this will be a hard fight," Azazel nodded.

---

Gasper decided to use a ritual to cure the curse on Xenovia's body. He would also buy time and fight two opponents himself in order for Xenovia to free herself from the curse.

Everyone was moved by his determination that would fight until the end.

Rias and her peerage also felt his feeling that didn't want to lose in this match.

"My resolve wasn't enough," her sword started to gather a massive amount of destructive power, "And it consumed me, Gasper, you came here with a determination far greater than mine, the only thing that I can do to match your resolve is this!"

"I won't let you!" Misteeta wanted to use his Sacred Gear again but he couldn't move.

Ladora turned and saw Gasper, who was beaten, use his Sacred Gear to stop him.

"You two were defeated by Gasper!" Xenovia blasted Durandal's destructive energy toward them.

BOOOOOOOOMMMM!!!!

"Sairaorg Bael's other Rook, other Bishop, Rias Gremory's Bishop, have all been knocked out!" Rodriguez announced.

"We're halfway through our event, and the Gremory team has 8 players left while the Bael team only has three, though the rest of the remaining players are their trump cards, will there be a sudden reversal? Well then, please proceed with the dice roll," Naud announced.

Sairaorg and Rias rolled the dice and showed the number.

"The total is 9, it's 9!" Naud announced.

"9, huh?" Azazel rubbed his chin.

"It's probably a match between their Queen pieces," Diehauser said.

"That's true," Yuuki nodded.

"Nyaa, I can't wait to see Akeno's match nyaa," Kuroka said.

---

Akeno teleported to the arena a saw her opponent, "Ara Ara, let's enjoy the battle."

Kuisha smiled in response.

Kuisha Abaddon is Sairaorg's Queen from the House of Abaddon, one of the families of the Extra Demons. She is a beautiful girl with blonde hair tied in a ponytail and blue eyes

Both of them were flying in this match and started to attack each other using their own magic.

Akeno attacked her with her lightning magic and Kuisha also attacked her with her elemental magic. Their fight was very fierce.

"Hey, I have heard that you're very good with your lightning magic, is this really all of your power?" Kuisha asked.

"Ara Ara, you have been impatient, huh? I don't mind showing you early," Akeno raised her right hand as she suddenly became surrounded by lighting.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Her body was covered in golden and light bluish armor and also holding a long spear, with a very large blade and a decorated circle resembling a shield attaching it to the shaft, "Lightning Empress Armor!"

The sky started to roar along with the appearance of her armor. In her state right now, she could be called an incarnation of the thunder itself.

"Are you ready?" Akeno showed her sadism and smiled toward her.
