It was an hour before the rating game, Me and The others have returned to their homes. I sat down on my bed, Until a red teleportation circle appeared. From it Akeno appeared, I knew it was time so I stepped into the circle and was teleported to the club building
All the team was there. A teleportation circle appeared it was the maid from that other day. She asked us if we were ready at which we replied with yes, Then she instructed us to another circle which did nothing? We were at the same room I looked outside the window and the sky was different. Guess that this is a barrier or something...
Rias said that it wasn't what it looked like "This is an arena created specially for the Rating games." She said
It was time, Rias and the others started strategiesing, While I thought for a bit and said. "Sorry for interrupting you Rias Can you guys think quick in a high pressure situation?" I asked
At which most answered Yes. I summoned a few gems Equal to the number of the team, I gave one to each of them.
"Why Are you giving us this?" Rias asked holding it
"You will see." I said as I changed my clothes to those of an aspect
"Now That I am comfortable. This Gems are for connection, I use them to connect to people so I can use my spells on them." I said as each of the gems I gave started floating close to the shoulder of their beholder
"If you plan too much, In the end may come to ruins, We need to make a lesser strategy that can easily be replaced, Or easily followed." I said as Rias nodded and started talking.
"Koneko and Issei, At the Gym, But first." She said as some bright orbs came into our ears. "This way we can make communication even from further away by using our thoughts. When someone needs help call out for Taric he will help you, Right Taric?" Rias asked
"Yes." I replied as she continued "Kiba at the forest. Me and Asia will stay here, Akeno be prepared when they give a sign to obliterate the place they have left and won at?"
"Understood." They all answered.
They Went outside and proceeded with the plan.
"Taric, I can not command you around, So you are free to help the way you want." Rias said as she sat on the couch with asia
"Ok then, See you in a bit." I said as I left the room and then the building
I used the Gems to see what is happening so I can provide help faster
Issei and Koneko were at the gym as the plan needed them to be, They were trying to be sneaky about it, But they suddenly came out of hiding, There they fought four of Phenex's peerage
(Welp A celestial Burst i guess.) I said in mind as I Called cosmic powers for protection, everywhere each of the team members are being shielded. Issei continued fighting as he saw that shield he slapped those girls. Then they charged at him, But he snapped his fingers and (Umm... Just why) I asked in mind
Atleast i made it easier for them
Then I let down the shield and let my power regenerate. "Huh... That is exhausting. I need to learn to be able to use it longer." I said
"Hey! Taric was that your shield." Issei asked through the communication orb
"Yes." I answered as I continued
Issei and Koneko left the gym as a loud boom was heard, It was Akeno She obliterated the Gym as planned
"Good one." I said as I continued forward i started running which escalated into flying forward, There i reached The place where Issei and Koneko were on Koneko was walking away, Before a boom was heard. It was before me, Koneko half conscious
I flew to her and healed her, But it didn't help she faded before me... "I... Won't.. Let... This... Happen again." I said quietly, As A rush of Memories invaded my mind. Those that I couldn't protect... I failed them...
I looked up and saw the woman Riser was kissing in the room that day.
She smiled looked down on Koneko's pain.
I flew up and was on the same level as her.
"You are enjoying this Aren't you?" I asked Looked at the woman seriously in the eyes
She just laughed and smiled "This universe will be better with lesser of you." I said as I flew so fast, That they can't see. With that energy gathered by the speed I hit the woman in the Head with my mace As I heared bone cracking sounds. "Fade and be gone." I said looking at her falling down
She disappeared and an announcement was heard. "The Queen and three of lord Riser Has retired. The Rook of Miss Rias has retired"
"Don't worry guys, I took her out." I said to the orb
"Well done." Rias replied
I continued walking with the determination to end all of this. On the running field I sensed presence
"Quit Hidding, I am here to put an end to this." I said as a dust cloud appeared and a woman from it
"I am..." I interrupted her
"I truly don't care about your name." I said as I rushed to them again and hitting them with my mace, But this time they blocked even though it still inflicted damage onto them
Her wrist was broken, "I am sorry for the pain you will have to suffer for giving away your free will."
I said as I hit her twice, Knocking her out
After she faded away, It was silent. Until someone came from their hiding And the announcement was heard, A Knight has retired.
I looked around and saw five people coming toward me.
"Nothing personal, But I Will end it all." I said as I blinded everyone around me with my lights
While they are still seeing White light, I knocked out almost all of them. Once the blonde short girl saw what happened while everyone were blinded, She flicked out. "Even though it is just a game, They still l feel pain... Let's just get this over with." I said as I knocked the last of Riser's pieces.
I started walking toward their base As all the announcements were heard. I knocked them all out
While in the hall way toward the principal office I Saw Riser, Who was trying to escape
"I usually do not like to inflict pain and insert fear, But I truly hope you recover from this." I said as I hit Riser in the head, Which ripped his head off, But he regenerated. He started Laughing and looked cocky at me. I smiled back and put my hand on his chest, Which made his core fade into light
"He started screaming. "My glory Can't die here. This lowly! This Lowly..."
"The Game is over. Rias Gremory Wins." The announcement was heard as I left the building and everyone looked at me.
"Did you?" Rias asked
"Yes." I said as the maid teleported us back to the club building, But this time into reality.
"I will be going see you guys any other day." I said as I left the room and the building, Usually it's refreshing from time to time to fight, but this time there was no enjoyment. Now I had a new goal. To find peace and before that to end as many problems as I can.
I Boosted my speed and rushed to my apartment and took care of myself before going to bed.
