A/N: Hi all, I'm back and ready to get back into writing this story for a second year. My trip over to Cambodia and Vietnam was fantastic and offered me various different views and outlooks onto different cultures and their way of life. Surprisingly the trip also gave me various ideas for the story and the future plots of the story such as, people, places and battles that may take place in the future.

For the story this year I hope to further the plot as well as the relationships between various characters as well as increasing the power level of these people.

So I would like to thank everyone for reading and reviewing the story last year and helping make it the best that it can possibly be. I would also like to say I hope everyone had a Merry and Happy Christmas and a happy new year.

So without further a due lets begin the new year strong and start chapter 27.

As she fluttered her eyes open, the sea blue iris's of her eyes began to receive various images and shapes within the room around her. Cursing her lips together and forcing the air out of her lungs through her lips. The few strains of crimson hair that cascaded down her face and suddenly were picked up from her perfectly crafted face and were suddenly lifted away to joining the many thousands of other hairs that covered her head that rested upon one of the various other pillows that were position upon the bed.

Extending her legs down the bed, Rias began to feel the muscles within her whole body begin to expand and contract with the force that she was using to push her her feet away from her body. Felling the expansion of her toes and the separation of the appendages, the young heiress once again relaxed her naked body back down to the bed below.

Suddenly the young heiress began to feel two muscular arms begin to corse there way around her hips pulling her closer towards the larger figure that spooned her from behind. Accepting her fate and playing along with the sleeping devil behind her Rias felt the strength and security that Issei possessed even while asleep. As she was pulled into the grip of the love of her life Rias could feel the naked form of her future husband pressing up against her equally as naked back.

Pushing her perfectly formed backside up against Issei's crouch, Rias was pleasantly surprised when she felt Issei's hardened member pushed up between her ass cheeks surprising the young girl, but at the same time giving her some sense of pleasure that she was surprised she didn't think she would fell.

Thinking more on the subject Rias began to ponder in her mind about her current predicament.

"Whats happening to me" Rias thought as she continued to think about the sensation even further.

Continuing to think Rias began to roll around within Issei's arms until she was faced in the opposite direction than what she had began in and was laying her head on his muscular chest.

"Im not like Akeno am I" She continued thinking on how much more sexually charged Akeno was than herself.

By all means Akeno was not a slut or anything along them lines, the two kings knew that the young queen was the very epitome of almost every man at Kuoh academy both teacher and student alike as well as many of the men and even some women within the wider kuoh region even had these thoughts about her, However both Rias and Issei knew that there was only one man that she had ever slept and will ever sleep with or ever had feelings for and that was Issei. But this is not what put the young devil princess on edge, the thing that placed her on edge the most was the fallen angel blood that flowed through her veins and the seductive nature of her being.

Falling deeper into her doubts, Rias failed to noticed that the young heir that she was wrapped within was now awake and look down at his future bride.

"Is everything ok Rias" Issei said startling Rias causing her to jump within his arms.

"Shit" Rias said as she looked up to see Issei smiling down at her trying to keep his laughter within his body.

"Oh that was very un-lady like Rias, what would your mother think" Issei said as he grabbed her ass squeezing it as he rolled over pulling her onto his chest.

"Well, Issei" Rias said sarcastically before continuing "What would your mother say if she knew you almost scared your beautiful future wife to death" Rias said causing Issei to smile at the mention of his mother.

Rias knew that she was the only one apart from the select few of Issei's mothers close family and friends that could still jest a and or have a comment at her expense and not get obliterated in an instant. However she still knew that she was treading on egg shells. Although she never knew his mother, the stories that both Issei and her parents had told her about Miki Hyoudou now Buer it was almost like she did know the woman.

Snapping out of her thoughts the young heiress once again reverted her attention towards Issei who was now needing her ass cheeks within his two hand causing her to smile at the heir.

"You enjoying yourself there Ise" Rias said as she placed her right hand on his face and her left hand on the tattoo that extended from his lower left rib to the top of his hip bone.

"I sure am, but it seemed liked you were enjoying yourself this morning when you were rubbing yourself up against my dick this morning Rias" Issei said shocking the young girl at the his knowledge of what she was doing before he was awake.

"Well, Ise I have to tell you something" Rias said as she began to blush at the though of what she about to say.

"Yeah what is it" Issei said as he began to become confused looking at the blushing teen.

Unable to tell him out loud Rias began to lean into the young heirs ear before she began to whisper it into his ear. " I want to try" Rias said as Issei went bright red and sat up causing Rias to fall onto his lap.

"You want to try anal" Issei said almost yelling causing Rias to smash her lips against his shouting lips in the hope of shutting up the young heir before he could alert any of the other girls within his harem.

As Issei began to realise what Rias was doing the young heir began to place both his hands on her lower back just above her hips. Realising that Issei was giving his full attention Rias soon detached her lips from his before slightly looking away with a massive blush of embarrassment evident on her face. Grabbing her chin with his left hand and pulling her face back around to face his, Issei began to smile as he notice Rias look at him shocked

"I know what your thinking" Rias said before continuing. "You think I'm dirty for suggesting this" She said as she waited for Issei's response.

"Well I'm not going to lie and say that I'm not shocked but to be completely honest I didn't expect this from you" Issei said as Rias nodded in defeat.

"I knew you were going to disagree" Rias said as she portrayed a fake smile trying to trick Issei in to believing she was alright.

"I never said I was against it, like i said I just didn't expect you to say it. To be honest I've wanted to do it with you since the night that we first had sex but I didn't know if you would be up for it or not so I didn't ask" Issei said as he kissed Rias on the lips before rolling on top of her.

Laying beneath Issei, Rias could feel the the heat and the blood began to boil and travel towards her face, not only did Issei agree to partake in anal with her but also he though about long before she even did.

Lemon Start

Smashing her lips against Issei's, the young crimson heir was surprised at the strength and precision that Issei could make his body move so that it was in time with her own. Letting his hands explore her body once again, Rias could feel Issei's right hand travel down the left side of her neck, across her collarbone and shoulder blade were he knew she was sensitive down towards his favourite place on her body her enormous bust.

Beginning to kneed the two lumps of perfectly moulded fat stores that were placed there. Beginning to moan at the pleasure that she was enduring Rias could feel that the peaks at the top of her mountains were beginning to form and harden into something that even Issei, likened to that on a diamond covered rock.

Snaking his face towards her breast Issei could feel that Rias was beginning to squirm under his touch. Wrapping her legs around his back and pulling his head closer to her breast with her arms, Rias knew that it wasn't long until she had reached her climax from just Issei's touch alone.

Unlike other species such as humans and even other beings such as elves, fairies and valkyries who could potentially be finished there mating after one climax from one or both of the being participating devils and fallen angels due to being born or creatures of lust could mate and have sex with each other for up to three days without tiring, this was also another reason why many males and even some females had harems to sooth and serve there intense craving. However although both Issei and herself still had a while to go before maturity and reaching this level of sexual prowess, Rias knew that she still had a lot in her before there limit would be close.

Shortly after cumming for the first time Rias soon pushed Issei down on his back and began to return the pleasure towards the young king but lubricating his shaft for the in upcoming pleasure that they would soon feel. As time past the young devils began to begin and end their usually sexual adventures with Issei ejaculating in Rias' mouth twice, her vagina another three times and on her face a single time. Cover inside and out with Issei's seed, Rias didn't roll over and accept her fate she herself, had came on Issei just as much in more places over his body as well.

Covered in each others love juices the two teens who were already huffing and puffing looked and smiled at each other. Looking at Rias Issei was surprised at the amount of cum that he had ejaculated onto her body and in particular her face.

"Sorry for cumming on you so much Rias" Issei said as he went to wipe it of her face only to be stopped when Rias ran her fingers down her face collecting some of the cum and then placing into her mouth.

Swallowing the sticky substance that was now going down her though the crimson teen soon spoke up "Theres no need to be sorry Issei, it just proves our love for each other" Rias said as she looked at him nervously.

"Um how do we do this, because Ive never done it" Rias said as she brought her knees up near her chin allowing for Issei to see her hair less vagina from the gap in-between her thighs.

"Well, I'm in the same boat, but I did some research, and it dead the most comfortable way was to spoon" Issei said as he looked at Rias.

As the two looked at each other, Issei began to crawl his way towards Rias, only to hug her close when he arrived. Hugging her close the young heir could feel the nervousness of his future bride as he began an spoon her.

"Is everything ok Rias" Issei said as he comforted Rias.

"Yeah Im just super nervous about this, just think about it you cock is about to go in my ass" Rias said as Issei grabbed hold of her hand.

"We don't need to do this" Issei said as Rias shook her head in disagreement.

"Yes, I want to, and by the feeling of the object that is poking its head out from between my legs I think you do to just be extra gentle" Rias said as Issei smiled before kissing her on the lips.

"Of course I will be Rias, so I'm going to begin" Issei said as he began to trace his finger down her back and into her ass crack.

Teasing and exploring Rias' perfectly shaped rear, it wasn't long until Issei reached his way to the opening of the cave. Instead of just jamming him finger into her ass Issei knowing that the young girl was scared of both the pain and the embarrassment of even suggesting this, began to just lightly caress the rim of her perfectly cleaned asshole. for about five minutes the young heir and heiress continued to partake in this with Issei slowing going round her ass hole and Rias relaxing to the idea that would soon become reality. Nodding over her shoulder to Issei giving him permission to begin, Rias gripped Issei's hand tightly as he began.

Pushing slowly in and then out, Rias was surprised when Issei continued to do this three or four times before fully pushing the length of his member completely into Rias' back door. Stopping as he reached the limit of his length, Issei could feel Rias' anal glans and muscles contracting and relaxing as it got accustomed to the foreign object that was implanted in her anal passage. Stretching his hands over her shoulders Issei soon began to open his mouth, only to be stopped by Rias.

"Im fine, Issei" Rias said before continuing " It wasn't pleasant at first but its ok now" Rias continued as she began to thrust her hips back towards Issei and then away from him.

Realising what she was going, Issei to began to move his hips in time with Rias'. Moving in perfect motion the two teens began to sweat more then they'd ever done during the multiple times that the two had had vaginal sex. Due to the tightness of the muscles of Rias' ass Issei was almost read to explode at anytime.

"Fuck" Issei though as he continued to thrust inside of Rias.

"Wow" Rias though as she continued to get penetrated by the love of her life.

Suddenly without warning Rias felt herself begin picked up and placed her her hands and knees facing the wall. Turning around to look at Issei, Rias was surprised when she saw a some what nervous look on the young heirs face.

"And…what do….you…think…your..doing.. .n" Rias said in between thrusts.

"Sorry do you want me to go back" Issei said as he looked down innocently.

"No…I didn't say that" Rias quickly said as Issei slowed down.

"Oh ok" Issei said as he grabbed Rias' face kissing it as he continued to fuck her in the ass doggy style.

Continuing to make out and fuck the two devils continued their love making for a good ten minutes. Within this ten minutes Issei had came in Rias about three times and was about to cum for a fourth time.

"Rias" Issei said as he broke yet another kiss.

"Yes.. dear" Rias panted as she looked back at Issei.

"Im about to come again" Issei said as he thrusted into Rias.

"Ok im ready" Rias said as she turned back around to face the wall.

Thrusting back and forth into Rias about five more times it wasn't long until she felt Issei once again swell inside of her. Bunching her fists and grabbing onto the bottom sheet as the top sheet and doona had been thrown off earlier in their session.

"Im cumming" Issei said as he let out yet another load into his queen and best friend.

Feeling the cum enter her ass hole again the constant stream of Issei's gooey substance caused Rias to arch her back down before she placed her head on the bed. With her head on the bed Issei could now get a full look at her face and the mental state that she was in. Surprised at the sight in front of him Issei was shocked when he saw that Rias' blue eyes had rolled up to the top of her eye sockets and she had stuck out her young in pure bliss. Smiling as he pulled himself out of her Issei, instantly laid down on his back next to Rias who was still recovering. Grabbing her face and kissing it gently on the lips and cheeks the young heir soon spoke up.

"Babe you ok" He said as he looked at her heavily breathing on the bed.

"Yes…that was… the ….best" Rias said as she slowly pulled his head closer towards her so it was only a few inches away from her.

"Kiss me, my red dragon" She said as she grabbed Issei's face.

"Yes my empress" Issei said as he kissed her passionately.

Breaking the kiss, the two once again looked at each others body to see each others bodily fluids sprayed across the other. Looking at the two Issei could see that Rias was the worst out of the two, from the top of her head to the tips of her toes Issei knew their was one bit of cum somewhere. He even laughed at the thought of getting a blue light and seeing her light up like a Christmas tree under it. He also knew that she had four loads in both her ass, vagina and on the other hand was just covered on his face chest and cock.

"Can you move" Issei said as he smiled.

"Not really" Rias replied.

"Well, i'll go get Asia, but first I'll clean you up" Issei said as he kissed Rias on the forehead.

Kissing her on the forehead the small almost inaudible grunt escaped Rias' mouth as he kissed her. Don't go he swore he heard come out of her mouth and he grabbed her chest lightly felling how her breathing was. Listening to her breathing Issei new that her current state was only from a mixture of pre bliss and exhaustion for the exercise that the two part took in. Creating a black magic circle in his hand Issei began to wave his hand over Rias' body.

Beginning at her toes and working his way up her body, cleaning her perfectly sculptured pale legs that made their was up to her perfectly developed hips, continuing up and beyond Issei couldn't believe how lucky he was to be engaged to such a perfect woman that loves him just as much as he loves her. Finishing cleaning Rias off from any excess cum and her own bodily fluids the young heir began to watch the young heiress for a moment. Issei could hear and see the slightness of her breathing as she drifted back of to sleep exhausted from their exercise.

Pulling the sheets over Rias just enough that it was tucked neatly under her chin, kissing her once again Issei proceeded to walk towards the door and opening it. Opening the door and step ping through it, he glanced slightly back at into the rom and the sleeping Rias before smiling and walking out closing the door behind him.

With the click of the door behind him, Issei began to walk down the corridor of the Gremory mansion he began to look around at the victorian era designs and furnishings throughout the house. Turning a corner and walking down one of the flights of stairs it wasn't long until Issei was on the third floor and once again walking down one of the manny corridors in the mansion. After a few seconds of walking Issei soon arrived at a door that had a sign on it saying Asia on it.

Like all members and friends of past heirs and heiress' of the Gremory clan each of Rias' peerages had a room for themselves in the castle as well. Akeno's and Vali's were on the same floor as Rias, Kiba, Xenovia and Gasper were one the floor below the one Issei was on now and Koneko, Kuroka, Murayama and Asia were all on the floor that Issei was currently standing on.

Walking towards the door and knocking on it, it wasn't long until a echo was heard down the corridor and up the stairs causing one of the maids to smile at him nicely before going back to her work. Waiting a minute Issei bided the time by looking around the trim of the door.

The intraday of the wood work in the door was amazing, the provision of the nerves and angles of the two female devils that worked their way up the door frame and along the door itself caused Issei to smile. Growing up he had alway heard that past members of the Gremory clan had there own style and mark that they had left on the mansion after there death and the current head Zeoticus Gremory was no different.

His eye for fine art and decoration was only second to that of his wife and right hand Venelana.

Breaking out of his concentration when he heard the latch of the door open, Issei everted his eyes from the two female devils on the door trim to the actually door its self were he saw Aisa standing there looking at him confused.

"Is there something I can help you with Issei" Asia said as she looked up towards him with a confused expression on her face.

"Um yes would I be able to come in" He said looking at Asia.

"Stepping aside to let the high class devil through Asia began to look at him confused at the reason for his list this early in the morning.

Walking into the former nuns room, Issei wasn't very surprised at what he was currently looking at. The room itself was like most of the other hundreds of bed rooms in the rest of the mansion, the massive bed in the middle, a dest of to the side and a walk in wardrobe that snakes of around the corner on its was to the ensuite that was at the end of the walk-in.

Moving his way over towards the brown desk that sat in the corner Issei was pleasantly surprised to see a couple of thick books open on the young girls desk. Turning around to look at the girl Issei was shocked to see her wearing her old nun robes without the cross. The black and white robes that Issei had first met her in always reminded Issei of how many people try and take advantage of either the weak, innocent or helpful.

Opening his mouth as he noticed the former nun look at his oddly Issei began to tell the nun why he was here.

"Sorry Asia did I wake you" Issei said as he looked at the former nun with a apologetic expression on his face.

Smiling back at him Asia raised her hand close to her chest before she continued.

"Ah, no you didn't Issei, I was actually studying" Asia said as she moved and sat in the chair behind her desk.

Walking over to Asia and looking over her shoulder Issei was very surprised to see the user of Twilight healing reading a book about healing types of sacred gears and the known past users of the gear. Turning the page Asia was surprised to see the next two pages to be about the sacred gear that she is in possession of Twilight healing.

"Twilight healing: Twilight healing or smile of the holy mother is a rare however not entirely unique sacred gear that appears in the form of two rings that change style depending on the welders personality and characteristics" Asia read aloud as Issei stood behind her listening to the young girl as she continued.

"This gear has the ability to heal, humans, devils, fallen angels, angels and even potentially gods. Notable users in the past include the Russian priest Grigori Yefimovich Rasputin (1869-1916)" Asia said shocked at the identity of one of her predecessors.

"Wow I'm surprised Rasputin had twilight healing, but that would explain how he could heal peoples injuries and slow down the effects of their diseases" Issei said as he scratched his chin as he thought.

"Who was Rasputin" Asia said confused not knowing about the Russian priest.

"Rasputin was Russian mystic or holy man from the Russian Orthodox branch of Christianity. What made him famous or infamous was he massive sexual appetite and his almost magical healing" Issei said as he began to tell the former nun a history lesson.

"Well what happened to him" Asia replied as she wonder what had happened to this seemingly holy man.

"Well eventually he began the healer for the Tsar's son who was suffering haemophilia and his power within the court continued to grow from there. Eventually there were roomers about him having an affair with the Tsarina the empress of Russia. But as all things come to an end Rasputin was assassinated by nobles" Issei said as the Bishop began writing notes about the man.

"But if he was able to heal why haven't I heard about him" Asia said as she looked on confused.

"Well rumour has it that he was also a rapist and a hieratic so he was removed from important individuals in fear that they would follow his teaching" Issei said as he looked towards Asia.

Nodding in agreement Asia once again began to read her book only to be stopped by Issei as he placed his right hand into her shoulder. Turning around and looking at Issei, Asia smiled before speaking.

"Is everything ok Issei" Asia said as Issei smiled.

"Well would you be able to come heal Rias, she a bit saw from our training this morning" Issei said as he scratched the back of his head.

Nodding the young bishop closed the book in front of her as she stood up from the seat. Standing up and pushing the seat beneath the desk, it wasn't long until the young bishop, used magic to change her clothes into her school uniform. As the light died down Issei was surprised at how far the young blonde bishop had come in the last couple of months since she was save by him and reincarnated by Rias as her second bishop.

Nodding at Issei, Asia began to follow him as he walked towards the door opening it. Walking towards the door and up the corridor that Issei had walked only minutes before the young heir could hear the young girls footsteps behind him gentle tapping the ground, not wanting to make to much noise.

Turning the corner the two began to walk up the stairs that lead up to the floor above them, reaching the platform that separated he two flights of stairs Asia spoke up confused on what Rias need her healing for.

"Um, Issei what does lady Rias need my healing for. I know she's more than capable of healing herself" Asia said as she looked up towards the Buer heir, who only smiled back at her.

"Well the training that Rias and I did this morning has caused Rias to not be able to concentrate on healing herself, so I came and got the best healer here" Issei said as he smiled down at the blond bishop who only smiled back up at him.

Arriving at the top of the stairs the two began to walk towards Rias' room. Quietly walking past Vali's and Akeno's room the pair of devils soon arrived at Rias' door. Pushing the open and walking inside the Issei was please to see Rias still covered up and barely awake.

Walking in slightly behind Issei, Asia kinda felt a bit awkward with the thought of just walking into her masters room without knocking or anything like that. Gently pulling on Issei's pants the young bishop was trying to ask the devil a question.

"Issei" She said as she continued to pull at him.

Turning around to see what the bishop wanted, Issei was shocked to see a familiar nervous look across her face.

"Whats up Asia" Issei said as he looked down at her.

"Shouldn't we knock" She said as Issei laughed.

"Nar, its alright, it may be officially Rias' room but she's been adamant that this is our room and I must stay here with her. Its not like I'm complaining, I really enjoy it" Issei said as the blonde former sister smiled.

Turning his attention away from the young woman who only walked a few steps behind him, the young heir once again faced his future bride who only smiled at him. Walking closer to the bed, Issei could see that the exhausted Rias was attempting to move across in hopes of creating enough room for Issei to sit next to her. Arriving at the bed Issei grabbed the still moving Rias stopping that young crimson haired devil in her tracks.

"Stop darling, its fine I'll just jump on the other side as Asia heals you" Issei said as he slide into bed next to Rias.

Sliding in next to Rias, Issei soon slide himself across so he was right next to the young woman. Placing her head on his arm, Issei could feel that Rias was beginning to snuggle into the crook of his next between his head and his shoulder. Surprising Rias, Issei soon grabbed her still tender ass as he began to pull her closer to him as Asia knelt down.

Kneeling down besides the bed a familiar green glow began to appear around the young bishops hands. Gliding them over Rias the same green glow began to latch itself onto her body as the soothing feeling of Asia's healing began to take place.

"Ok, Lady Rias I'm going to do a full body heal, but I can rejuvenate your stamina" Asia said as Rias nodded.

"Thats ok, Asia, I made this tea before I came a got you, and its been boiling ever since", Issei said as he teleported three cups and the kettle towards him pouring them as it came closer.

As the three handless cups arrive next to the bed Issei began to hand them out. Reaching the tea that he was giving to Rias, Issei pulled out a small vile and dropped three drops into the tea before giving it to Rias.

"Phenex tears, where did you get them from Issei. But you know that this will negate what Asia was here for" Rias said as she looked at Issei confused as she sat up looking at him.

"Well not really, you see Rias, why Asia has been healing you Physically, the Phenex tears will rejuvenate your stamina as well as support Asia's healing" Issei said as Rias took a sip of the tea.

Taking a sip of the tea, Rias' body began to glow as her mental and physical stamina was beginning to be rejuvenated. Looking down at Rias, Asia knew that her job was now complete and that she could go back and get ready for the day of activity that the two peerages were going to participate in.

"If, its ok with you Lady Rias I like i'll take my leave" Asia said as she stood up looking at her master.

"Yes thank you" Rias said as Asia bowed towards her before turning and walking out of the room.

As the latch on the door clicked shut, Rias turned her attention from the door to the devil who was still standing in front of her. Smiling at Issei, Rias continued to look at the young heir as she began twirling and twisting her crimson red heir in her right index finger. Beginning to move her feet under the sheets, it wasn't long until both her luring legs were handing out of the bed. Stepping down from the bed, Rias let her naked form stand there for a minute letting Issei get a good look at his bride to be.

Smiling as she noticed him look over, Rias soon began to walk towards her wardrobe were she pulled out two white towels with the Gremory crest in the bottom left corner out.

"You coming" Rias said seductively as she looked at Issei.

Smiling at Rias, Issei soon smiled before opening his mouth. "Of course dear" Issei said as he followed Rias into the shower.

"No funny business ok" Rias said as they closed the door behind them before turning on the water.

Ten minutes after the two heirs got out of the shower. Issei, Rias and their respective peerages were down stairs in one of the many class rooms that surrounded the main courtyard of the Gremory mansion. Waking into the class room and taking their seats the peerage member began to look up towards their kings for further instructions.

"As you all know, the devil kings and the devils council believe that the youth of the devils is not strong enough to fight and protect themselves in the growing supernatural world" Issei said as Rias smiled as she to opened her mouth.

"Yes as a result they have organised a youth devil rating game tournament to see who is the strongest youth and works the best with their peerages" Rias said as a screen appeared behind the two.

Looking at the screen behind the kings the devils within the room could see the brackets for the fights and the outcomes of the games that had pasted during the last couple of days. Continuing to look at the screen in front of them, Issei used the time to walk around and hand each of the devils a pencil and a piece of paper before moving to the back of the room and taking a seat.

"Ok so in front of you is a piece of paper and a pencil, I was you to use that to right down any notes that you see fit to on possible enemies that you may face" Rias said as Murayama put up her hand.

"Um, how are we going to know who we will fight" Murayama said as Issei smiled from the back of the class room.

"Because we will watch the highlights of the previous fights, and Rias will discuss her fight with Sona as well" Issei said as Rias began the videos.

Watching the screen change to that of a video, the newer members of the peerages were surprised to see the fight between, Sairaorg Bael and Zephyrdor Glasya-Labolas. Looking at the screen closer, all the devils in the room, even the older ones were shocked at the strength and skill Sairaorg possessed. As the group continued to watch it even the newer members of the group could see that the fight was heavily one sided in Sairaorg's favour.

When the fight came to an end none of the devils were surprised when the victor was Sairaorg. Not only had he almost single handily taken out most of the enemy devils, but he had done it with just his fists and nothing else. Shocked at the raw power that Sairaorg had, Issei began to write down anything that he could think of that, could potentially put the devil down.

"The next fight we were going to watch was the Diodora Astaroth vs Seekvaira Agares which has some how disappeared from the rating game feed for some reason" Rias said as she began to scratch her head in confusion.

"But that doesn't matter at the moment Rias" Issei said as he spoke to the devil who was leading the class.

"Yes, not at the moment. Ok on to more urgent measures. Tomorrow is the fight between the Gremory and Sitri peerages and I don't want us to lose this early in the competition so, I believe that we should discuss the match ups for tomboys battle.

"So what's the plain Rias" Akeno said wondering what her king and best friend was thinking.

"The plain is as followed, Sona, Tsubaki and Saji are the most dangerous players on the team, so I was thinking if we pair them up with their respective players the others can finish of Sona's other pieces and come and help the rest when there done" Rias said as she looked at her peerages who nodded.

"So what's the match ups" Kiba said as he looked at Rias wondering what was going to happen regarding the upcoming rating game.

"Well, Kiba seeing that Sona has seven pieces and we also have seven pieces, Akeno and I have divided a plain to optimise our effectiveness against them" Rias said as she brought up a new picture on the screen before continuing.

"The match ups will be as followed, Akeno will fight Tsubaki, I will fight Sona and Gasper will fight Saji" Rias said shocking everyone including Issei.

"Will all do respect, Rias do you think its wise to let Gasper fight Saji alone. I know that his improved a lot, but Saji will want to impress Sona by winning this game" Issei said as he looked at the small Vampire who nodded in agreement.

"I think it's very wise" Rias said before continuing. "You see Issei, the reason why I sent Akeno and myself again Sona and Tsubaki is that then the two powerhouses of their team are so Gasper can slowly back Saji into an ambush will at the same time slowly wearing him down. While this is going on the others will finish there opponents of and hopefully be back to support Gasper" Rias concluded as Xenovia looked at her king shocked.

"But do you think it will work" Xenovia said as Akeno looked up at the knight.

"Well seeing that Sona's focus will be on Rias, it will also give us time to lay traps around the battle field" Akeno said as Issei spoke up.

"They also have another healer on their team, that your knights should target first seeing that they may be the difference in this battle" Issei said as Rias nodded in agreement.

"Yes I agree, so does everybody know their part of the plain" Rias said as Kuroka tapped her sister on the shoulder.

"Whats up" Koneko whispered as she looked back over her left shoulder into her sisters eyes.

"They don't know that us can use some Senjutsu yet so use that to your advantage" Kuroka whispered back as her sister nodded.

By the time that the two sisters had finished there conversation, Rias had finished briefing her team on the battle that would partake in tomorrow. Standing up and switching off the lights the group of devils began to make there was outside to individually prepare for the battle that was going to take place.

The next day.

"Good morning ladies and gentlemen, my name is Naud Gamigin and I'm a member of the house of Gamigin, will be your announcer for todays rating game between the Gremory Heiress: Rias Gremory and her opponent the Sitri Heiress: Sona Sitri" Naud said as his voiced echoed throughout the stadium.

Standing on the edge of the magic circle, Rias could hardly contain both her excitement and nervousness at the ensuring battle that was about to take place. Closing her eyes and taking three deep breaths Rias could feel the oxygen enter and exit her lunges and she stood there. Deep in her trans, Rias could suddenly feel the soothing touch of two warm and safe hand place themselves on her shoulders.

"Hello Issei, what's up" Rias said as he began to rub his hands across her shoulders.

"You'll be fine Rias, don't stress, trust in the family that you have built and they will trust in you, so go out there and show them that your just not the little sister of the devil king Lucifer but you Rias Gremory, Heiress of Gremory, future wife of Buer but most importantly show them that you just Rias. Your own person and your going to achieve your goal one day" Issei said as Rias turned around as she opened her eyes.

Opening her eyes Rias could see a massive grin that went across his face giving her the confidence to go out and win this battle. Smashing her lips against his, Rias began to give Issei a kiss when the rest of her peerage arrived who began clapping at the young heiress. Surprised at the gesture from her family.

"Whats all this" Rias said shocked at the response from her friends.

"This is us showing our support for you our king, older sister, best friend and fellow harem member. We just want you to know that we are behind you through think and thin" Akeno said as she walked up stopping in front of her king.

"Ok everyone, lets go win our first Rating Game and show them we mean business" Rias said as she stuck her hand in the air as the others followed.

Walking into the magic circle Asia, Kiba, Koneko, Xenovia and Gasper soon followed their king. Standing there and waiting for their queen to follow, each one of the them prepared in there own way. Turning towards Akeno, Issei suddenly grabbed her by the hips and pulled her in for a deep kiss. Sinking into the kiss Akeno wrapped her arms around his neck as he grabbed her ass.

"Be careful and protect each other out there" Issei said as he let go of Akeno.

As Akeno arrived next to her king, the group turned around to look at the Buer peerage only to see Issei once again speak up.

"Rias, I expect to see you in the next round, I won't expect anything less from my future wife, as I will be the one that beats you in this competition and no one else" Issei said as he smiled at Rias.

"Im sorry my dear I think you will be the one that will lose" Rias said as a white light engulfed the Gremory peerage transporting them to the waiting area for the fight.

"The rules for this game is simple, the team with the most amount of players still left at the end of the three hours is the winner. You can win in a multitude of was. 1. By removing the opposing king from the battle field 2. Removing all other pieces but the king and forcing them to surrender and 3. by destroying more than 70% of the battle field" Naud said as the stadium cheered in anticipation.

As he watched the Gremory team teleport away from view, Issei and the other in the Buer peerage began to get ready to go to the stadium to what them compete. Turning around and grabbing his jacket Issei was surprised when he felt Vali fix his collar as he did up the jacket zipper.

"You ready to go" Vali said as she looked at her king, while preparing a magic teleportation circle for the group to transport in.

"Yeah, is everyone else" Issei said as everybody nodded as they walked towards the magic circle.

As Issei arrived at the centre of the magic circle at the rest of his peerage as they stood around him. Peering over his shoulder, Issei began to study his group of girls and how they were acting in regards of the fight. Vali was looking supportive of her friends and rather glad that she would be able to see them fight. Tiamat looked uninterested as she played with the red dragon that walked around her upper body, Kuroka looked excited to see her sister fight in the rating game and for some reason Murayama looked frightened. Grabbing the young knights hand shocking her Issei looked down towards her giving a comforting smilie ass they teleported away.

Arriving at their location Rias and the rest of her peerage were surprised at the familiarity of the location that they were in. Looking around her Rias and the others could see what appeared to be Kuoh shopping centre. Looking closely the group see the four stories that was littered with various shops and restaurants such and Nike, Target, Starbucks, various swimsuit and sporting shops with the added inclusion of Starbucks on the bottom floor. Surprised at the detail that the devils went to to create this really realistic setting Xenovia was even more surprised when she saw the six escalators moving in the centre of the shopping complete.

"Ok, everybody" Rias said only to be cut of by another announcement my Naud.

"Sorry for the interruption, another rule for this game is that Lady Gremories bishop Gasper Vladi is unable to suck his enemies blood during this game" Naud said as his voice echoed throughout the complex.

"Ok, everybody. We know what to do to win, so let's go out and do it" Rias said as everybody cheered.

As the two teams heard the alarm go off signifying the start of the match. The Gremory peerage began their plan to win the fight. Sending out her three familiars to scout out the surrounding area for any enemies Akeno watched as Kiba began to create a sword for Xenovia to use as she was not comfortable in using Durandal's destructive power in this game. Handing the sword over to the former exorcist Xenovia was surprised at the expert craftsmanship that Kiba had used to create the sword. Using there speed the two knights shot out of the room and into the surrounding shopping centre that their battle would take place in. Beginning to run around the upper floors of the shopping centre Kiba and Xenovia began to look for any possible areas or places where the enemy may have set up their camp or trapped for them to fall into.

Watching the group leave on our individual assignment Koneko, smiled as she tightened the small black gloves that surrounded her hands. Fastening the gloves the small white haired rook began to walk out of the small coffee shop that they had to set up camp in, as she walked out of the doors and into the surrounding area of the third floor she began to set into motion her own her part of the larger mission. Walking out of the room and into the vast that was the Kuoh shopping mall Koneko began to walk towards the elevator where she knew it would take her down to the bottom floor of the complex.

As the last three remaining members of the peerage stood there in the room their crimson hair headed leader looked over her left shoulder shoulder towards her raven haired queen.

"Have they found anything yet" Rias said as she wondered if Akeno's oni had found any of Sona's peerage.

"Yes, one of them has seen Tsubasa and Tomoe on the second floor running towards one of the department stores" Akeno replied as she looked at her king.

Scratching her chin in thought Rias began to think of the best way to deal with current situation. Thinking for a couple more moments Rias, thought of a plan that may work.

"Asia, how good are you at defence spells" Rias said as she looked at the nun.

"Well, I'm ok there not very strong but they look real enough to fool the untrained eye" Asia replied as she looked at Rias.

"Good that's all I need, Asia can you send Rassei to that clothing shop across the hallway and get him to protect you as you make some earth magic barriers around the room" Rias said as Asia nodded before running out of the room and doing the same thing that see was told.

As she watched the young bishop run out of the room, Rias created a magic circle that appeared over her left ear. As Rias waited a moment she soon heard the voice of her blonde hair knight through the circle.

"Kiba I need you an Xenovia to go to the department store on the second floor and eliminate Tsubasa and Tomoe" Rias said as she began to hear Kiba breath and he began to run.

"Yes Rias" Kiba said as he nodded.

Signalling to Xenovia to follow him the two knight jumped over the railing and down towards the floor below. Landing on the floor the below the two knight broke their fall by rolling forward and out of the way of anyone looking around for any Gremory peerage members. Crouching behind one of the large pillars that supported the buildings roof the two knights began to converse with out even speaking. Nodding Kiba watched as Xenovia jumped off into another area of the shopping complex as he walked in the front door of the department store.

Walking in the front door of the store, Kiba began to look around the store, as if he was hoping for something, walking past the front desk and the clothes rack, he young knight ever so slightly began either cutting, dropping or bending the clothes or coat hangers that they were on. Continuing this for another five minutes Kiba soon arrived at the entertainment area of the store. Walking around the corner, Kiba was slightly started when he just dodged a fist that came from behind one of the T.V's on the floor.

Rolling out of the way, and back behind one of the display cabinets Kiba began to assess the surround area for his attacker, looking around it wasn't long until he heard the voice of Tomoe as she came out from behind the clothes on the far side of the area.

"Well did you get him" Tomoe said as spoke to her companion as she held her sword close to her chest.

"Well, no" Tsubasa said as she came out looking for Kiba.

"Kiba kun, please come out we only want to talk" Tomoe said as she smiled hoping that the young knight would come out.

Seeing that he had only very limited choices for his escape and that if he ran the two girls would alert Sona and perhaps attack the others. Nodding to himself as he formulated his plain in his head, Kiba stood up and steeped out into the open unarmed as he looked around for the girls.

"Hello ladies" Kiba said as they both turned around to look at the knight.

"Oh Kiba so you did show up, we would like you to surrender" Tomoe said as she looked at him smiling.

"Well I like the offer but I'm going to have to refuse" Kiba said as he smiled.

"Well I think we'll have to beat you then" Tsubasa said as she charged at the young knight causing him to jump out of the way.

Jumping out of the way and rolling, Kiba took a spilt second look to see that Tsubasa had created small cracks in the concrete that he was just standing on a few moments ago. Looking up Kiba quickly created a sword in his right hand as he was quickly set upon by Tomoe who was elegantly swinging her Katana around. Rolling, diving and stepping out of the way of her blade, Kiba elegantly and gracefully waited for the girl to leave and opening in her defence. Stepping further and further back, Kiba soon realised that the knight was slowly backing him towards Tsubasa who was waiting for him.

Sensing that there was not much time left before he would be traps, Kiba quickly sent his left leg forward smashing into Tomoe right knee. Caught by surprise the knight collapsing onto her knees, looking up the young knight was shocked at the speed and accuracy that her opponent possessed. Using her as a jumping board Kiba planted his right foot onto her left shoulder jumping up into the air and backwards towards the opposing rook. Somersaulting towards her Kiba aligned his body with his sword and began flying towards her.

Suddenly the flying knight with suddenly stopped when his opponent successfully kicked him in their left rib winding the knight causing him to drop his sword and roll out of the way in hopes of not being hit again. Standing up he began to wonder where his comrade was and what the hell she was doing. Walking around the small area that the three were fighting in he began to look for any escape route always that he could escape. Suddenly the blue whisk flew past his eyes and planted her left foot in the side of her opponents face landing on the ground and spinning around with a sword facing outwards the young girl soon he tripped over her larger opponent and successfully kicked her in the stomach forcing her back.

"Xenovia, you took your time" Kiba said as he looked at his blue haired comrade.

"Well at least I'm here" She replied as they two got ready to fight.

As the four combatants charged each other the speed and out and strength that that that before possessed was unremarkable slice after slice was blocked by yet another slice or cross guard of their opponents hands. With three of the four combatants being swords men or women the fight soon turned out to be one of skill and precision rather than just straight out strength. This situation suited the Gremory team most as they possessed the upper hand when it came to a number of swords people, using their advantage the two began pushing their opponents back into the store. Beginning to get the upper hand with both the speed and accuracy that they possess the Gremory knights had began forcing their opponents to split and walk down to separate Isles of the department store shocked and surprised at how easily they had separated the two Sitri peerage members.

The only thing that stopped the Gremory advance was a beam of demonic energy and planted itself into Xenovia's left leg causing the girl to roll out of the way and drop her sword. Using this time to close the gap between the Gremory team, Sitri rook successfully planted her right foot and fist into her opponents face splitting her eye eyebrow and causing her nose to bleed. Seeing that his ally was down Kiba quickly ran over to her picking her up and running away.

Successfully cornering the Gremory knights in the book section of the shop the Sitri devils stood there looking at the two knights as their unknown help appeared from the shadows.

"Im impressed Yuuto" Tsubaki said.

"Thank you Tsubaki that means a lot coming from you" Kiba said causing the queen to blush.

"Well, I'm going to have to ask to to surrender" Tsubaki said as she placed her arms under her bust as Kiba smiled.

"Well, I'm sorry we can't do that" Kiba said as he nodded to Xenovia.

Nodding back at her fellow knight Xenovia suddenly released Durandal out of the pocket dimension that it's stored in and threw it to Kiba, caught off guard by the sudden move, Tomoe and Tsubasa changed at the Gremory Knights hoping to defeat them. Suddenly Kiba slammed the holy sword into the ground.

"Durandal birth" Kiba said as he used his sacred gear to create replicas of the holy sword around him and Xenovia.

As a rose pattern of Durandal's began to appear around the two knights the Sitri devils attempted to get out of the way, Suddenly as if on demand both Tomoe and Tsubasa were caught in the attack spearing both of them through the chest.

"Sona Sitri knight retired" Naud said through the load speaker.

"Sona Sitri rook Retired" Naud repeated again.

Surprised at the speed of their attack Tsubaki took to the air with her devil wings just making it out of the way of their attack. Looking down from the roof of the department store, Tsubaki was surprised when she saw that the swords had created a pattern in the ground to resemble that of the Gremory rose.

Looking around for the two knights Tsubaki was startled when she saw Xenovia charging at her. Lifting her sword over her shoulder as she jumped into the air, Xenovia used the speed that her knight piece gave her to throw herself into the air towards the queen. Unable to do anything as Xenovia was coming at her to fast the young queen did all she could think of in the situation.

"Mirror alice" Tsubaki said as a mirror appeared in front of her.

As Xenovia smashed her sword into the mirror, the mirror shattered into a million pieces. Thinking that she had broke through the defence Xenovia was surprised when she felt the force of her attack double back on herself causing great pain. Dropping her sword and falling backwards, Xenovia hit the ground unconscious.

"Rias Gremory knight retired" Naud said as Xenovia disappeared.

Saddened by the loss of Xenovia, Kiba used the opening that she had left him to plunge his sword into Tsubaki's chest, shocking the queen as she stumbled to the ground only to be caught in Kiba's arms as she disappeared.

"Sona Sitri queen retired" Naud said as Kiba walked away from the battle field.

Koneko's fight

As Koneko walked through the bottom floor of the shopping centre she began to wonder where everyone was and what they were doing, she could sense that Gasper was only a few minutes behind her as he was keeping a close eye one her. Walking around the corner Koneko began to hear foot steps coming towards her.

"I hope Sona knows what she's doing" Reya said as she looked towards her fellow bishop

"She does, she said that Rias has an offensive team so we need to divide them up to beat them" Momo replied as Koneko continued to listen to their conversation.

"Come on and hurry up, let's continue to look around" Saji said as Koneko felt someone on he shoulders.

"Don't be alarmed it's only me" Gasper said as he spoke to the white haired rook.

"Ok good, I think we need to contact Rias" Koneko said as she created a magic circle above her ear.

"Koneko what's up" Ras said as she spoke to her rook.

"We have four Sitri members down on the bottom floor" Koneko said as she heard Rias began to talk to Akeno and Asia.

"I need you two to go to Koneko now she needs help" Rias said as the two nodded.

"Yes Rias" They both replied as they left the room.

"Ok Koneko, Asia and Akeno are one there was just wait till they arrive" Rias said as Koneko nodded ending the call.

Ending the call with Koneko, Rias soon stood up and made her way to the ned of the corridor before smiling. Closing the door behind her Rias made her way to the elevator before she spoke again.

I know where you are now Sona" Rias said as the doors of the elevator closed shut.

Teleporting down to Koneko's location it wasnt long until Asia and Akeno were with the white haired rook. Looking over her shoulder the two were shocked to see Gasper just in front of her looking at what was going on.

Looking over the two fist years Akeno could see that the four devils in front of her were setting up some sort of base up, perhaps to fool the Gremory house into attacking it. Continuing to look Akeno could see that the four devils that stood only ten metres down the corridor was, Saji, Reya, Momo and Ruruko.

Thinking of the best possible match ups for the four currently here Akeno began to think. Thinking for a couple of minutes Akeno soon came to the raven haired queen.

"Gasper, Koneko, Asia listen closely" Akeno said as the three nodded.

"Asia I want you to act as the healer of the group as you put up defences around us. Koneko I want you to take Ruruko and push her away from the group. Gasper I need to to stop or slow Saji down while I take care of Momo and Reya" Akeno said as they all nodded in agreement.

Looking at each other then nodding the four devils began to sneak into their position as they heard Naud over the loud speaker again.

"Sona Sitri queen retired" Naud said as the Sitri devils looked at each other in confusion.

"They got Tsubaki" Saji said as the others looked looked to him for leadership advice.

Suddenly as the three girls looked towards the pawn, Ruruko was hit in the side of the head by a flying rock knocking the girl to the floor as blood began to run down her face. Confused at where the rock had came from the three remaining standing devils looked over to see Asia using some of her new skills to create rocks the size of basketballs as Koneko kicked or punched them towards the group.

Beginning to charge at the two Gremory devils, Saji was shocked when he felt his right knee suddenly collapse to the ground looking down at his knee said was supposed when he saw Gasper slightly behind his looking at the pawn with a grin on his face. Shocked at the nervous vampires strength Saji turned and charged at the smaller devil.

Crossing his arms Gasper took the majority of the force of the punch through the cross it his arms. However strong his defects were the strength of Saji's punch still lifted the boy of his feet throwing him against the wall. Running towards the fallen bishop Saji extending his arm as his sacred gear appeared, sending the tongue flying towards Gasper, Saji was shocked when the line of his gear suddenly stopped in mid air as a purple aura began to form around it.

"What" Saji said as he looked at the line just hanging there in mid air.

"I must protect Rias and my friends, Issei is not going to always be here to save us" Gasper said as he transformed into his bat form.

Flying around Saji, as he transformed back and forth between his two forms Saji and the Buer peerage watching the fight were shocked at the confidence that the bishop had mustered up for the fight.

As Akeno watched Gaspers fight against Saji she two began to fight her two adversaries. Looking at the two girls in front of her, looking closer Akeno marvelled at the resemblance of the two girls. Smiling Akeno remember all the times the Sona had told Rias and herself that the two had been mistaken as sisters due to their likeliness, Smiling at the girls Akeno allowed the thunder that flowed through her veins to being to crackle at the end of her fingers.

"Hello ladies you ready to lose" Akeno said as she began to smirk sadistically.

Firing two bolts of lighting towards the girls, Akeno soon took to the air as her two opponents placed up a combined defensive shield. Letting there shield take majority of the attack the two girls soon began devising a plain to stop the priestess of thunder form beating them. As Akeno fired another attack towards the two, the two intentionally let the attack smash into a weakened shield smashing it as it went and hit the ground bellow it.

Using the dust and smoke that the destruction of the floor caused the two girls darted in opposite directions until they were on both of Akeno's sides, firing their most powerful attacks towards the queen the two girls through that they had her until she moved out of the way at the last minute. Shocked at the queens speed the two girls had no chance to move out of the way, hitting each other with each others attack.

With a massive explosion the two bishops went flying causing all to look on in shock, shocked at what had just happened Saji who was still under attack from Gasper looked up to see Momo rowing towards one of the walls.

"Sona Sitri bishop retired" Naud said as Reya began to disappear shocked at her partners defeat Momo could feel that she two would soon retire until she heard Saji scream.

"MOMO" Saji said as she looked up towards him.

Suddenly Saji got this added strength that everyone was shocked about, although he didn't enter a balance breaker the young pawns power level went up. Shocked at the increase of strength Gasper was caught in mid air with a leg sweep causing him to fall flat on his back. Before the young vampire could even reach Saji had punched the devil in the face causing his nose and eyebrow to gush out in blood. Shocked and in pain Gasper wasn't ready for the searing heat that he was about to feel.

Almost as immediate as the spitting of his face Gasper could feel a burning sensation in the cracks of his wounds shocked at the cause Gasper looked up only to see Garlic paste in Saji's hands looking at the paste drip of his fingers Gasper soon pasted out from the pain.

"Rias Gremory Bishop retired" Naud said as Gaspers body disappeared.

"Gaspy no" Koneko said as she kicked another rock at Saji as he ran towards Momo.

Quickly Saji looked over to see the rock coming towards him. Flipping over the rock and catching it mid air Saji used the momentum of the attack to quickly hurl the rock back. As the rock hurled back towards Koneko and Asia, Koneko attempted to shield Asia with her rook defence. As the rock slammed into Koneko back a chunk of the rock smashed into Asia's head knocking her out.

"Rias Gremory Bishop retired" Naud said as Asia began to vanish.

Standing only because of her rook defence Koneko was shocked to see Saji grabbing hold of Momo as she laid on the ground. Moving her hair out of her eyes Saji began to assess the damage that the girl had felt. Suddenly both of the Sitri member felt a cold chill run down there spins. Looking up the two could see Akeno walking towards them with lighting forming around her.

"Your brave i'll give you that Saji" Akeno said as the young pawn began to stand only to be stuck by Akeno.

Striking the pawn with bolt after bolt Akeno began to see that Momo was beginning to stand up. Looking over to her she fired lighting towards the girl as Saji grabbed her using himself as a shield forgetting that Momo would also get struct. As the two devils continued to get struck Akeno sent a massive wave of lighting throughout the ground causing the two and the newly awake Ruruko who had just gotten of the ground to be struck with the wave.

"Sona Sitri Pawn retired" Naud said

"Sona Sitri bishop retire" Naud repeated as the Gremory queen smiled.

"Sona Sitri pawn retire" Naud said for the third time as the last of the Sitri devils disappeared.

Looking over towards Akeno, koneko was shocked at the sadistic nature of the attack that she had just done. As almost as if the raven queen was reading the white haired rooks rooks thought Akeno spoke up as she looked at Koneko.

"No one hurts my family" Akeno said as the white haired rook just nodded as they walked towards the exit.

Ting the doors of the elevator sounded as Rias arrived on the top floor of the opened allowing Rias to step out. Stepping out onto the roof the crimson haired devil began to look around to see if the hunch that she had felt was correct. Walking around the corner a magic circle appeared next to her ear. Answering the message the voices of Akeno and Kiba soon came through.

"Sorry to interrupt, but we are finished down here" Akeno said as she waited for her master to respond.

"Thats good to here would you be able to come to the roof, that's the same for you to Kiba" Rias said as she waited for a response.

"Yes ma'am" They both responded.

Ending the call with the two devils Rias proceed to walk around and air conditioning vent. Walking around the vent Rias was glad when she saw Sona siting there with screens around her. Looking at Sona who continued to look at her screens, Rias could see that the girl was upset when she saw Tsubaki and Saji lose in there fights but she could also see some pride through when see was looking at the screen with Saji on it.

"It looks like they fought well" Rias said as Sona fixed her glasses as she looked up at the devil in front of her.

"Yes they did but so did your peerage" Sona retorted as she smiled looking up.

"Yes I was glad we could hold our own against you without Kuoh's resident heavy hitters" Rias said as she continued to talk.

"If you're talking about the Buer peerage I would have to agree, both our peerages are strong in their own right as well, however we both have some work to do to catch up to Issei" Sona said as Rias smiled.

"Yes, I think I've figured out a way to beat my future husband but i'll tell you later as I know his watching" Rias said as she smiled knowing Issei was indexing watching.

"So are you ready to fight then" Sona said as she stood up creating spheres of water around her hands.

"Well Sona unfortunately this game is already ours" rias said as Kiba, Akeno and Koneko appeared around the Sitri heiress.

"Well it appears so, a good king knows how to fight but a great king knows when to retreat" Sona said as a buzzer sounded throughout the stadium.

"There you have it, winner Rias Gremory" Naud said as Issei cheered causing Sirzech to laugh at the young heirs antics as Grayfia smiled.

"Well it appears that she has won her first rating game" Grayfia said as she looked at Sirzech.

"Yes but her next one is going to be even harder" Sirzech replied as he looked towards Issei.

A/N Alright that will do for this chapter this has been the biggest chapter by far and I actually had to cut this chapter down al ot because it was to long. I would also hope everyone had a merry Christmas and a happy new year, and everyone is looking forwards to 2020 and the year ahead.

I was happy when I was writing this chapter as I could explore Rias and her peerage in her own right. I also tried to portray the internal struggle that Rias feels when she is compared to Issei and his strength. This chapter also allowed me to focus on characters such as Xenovia and Gasper a lot more as they had their time to shine. So it with the end of this chapter it appears that Rias has won her first rating game and is on the road to her dream, however now Issei stands in her way. It also appears that a past user of the sacred gear Twilight healing has been revealed.

So until next time thanks for reading, feel free to review

Thank you and stay safe
