DXD OVERLORD

Chapter 17: Peerage Expansion Part 7



CHALLENGE Location the Underworld, the Capital City of Lilith, the Central Tower of Lilim; the Middle Floor, the Grand Banquet Hall

Everyone in the room was utterly quiet. As they just witness an impossibility. A young ten-year old, devil has just gained double the amount of evil pieces, and what's more all those twenty-nine, yes twenty-nine pieces were mutated. As the Satans got over their shock first, they wanted to get things under control and handle, before they spiraled into chaos. But a certain devil amongst the crowd, ruined any opportunity for them to do so, and that devil was Riser Phenex. Who yelled out, "Cheater!!!"

As all eyes were the young Phenex heir, the third son of the Clan, and all notorious asshole. Riser, he decided to get Laharl brat into trouble out of spite and jealousy!! Not only did he was more achieved than him and he has just gotten his Evil Pieces. This kid has three amazing girls that should Riser's not his, and then he somehow managed to do something that should be impossible!!! If anyone should have been able to do it, it should be Riser of a more prestigious clan, instead of a simple side branch!!!

Riser started to rant and yell, and soon other will follow him in the ranting. Sirzechs, has already soo much in his plate, now he needed to deal with this issue before...as he was thinking, Laharl blasted a ball of demonic, electrical, dark energy at Riser. Blasting him, as they heard the young Phenex, scream and be engulfed in a explosion, Laharl, he grabbed the mic and said in a clear challenging tone, "Anyone else wants to talk shit. Just cause no one has ever done what I've done, doesn't mean I can't happen or it won't happen again. Plus to the extra crispy, fried chicken...(as he said that many young devils laughed, some adults managed to hold back their laughter, while Serafall was almost rolling on the floor)...how could I cheat?" his question made everyone go silent and start thinking. No matter how much they thought of what they've just experienced, Laharl didn't do anything out the norm, during a registration ritual. As Laharl continued talking, "That's right, I couldn't have. Despite my power, do really think that I could trick not one, not two, but all four Satan? Do you doubt our leaders capabilities?" as he said this, everyone started to look nervous, all the while Sirzechs smiled proudly, Serafall crossed her arms over her waist and stuck up her face in a proud, smug smile. Ajuka has a small smile on his usual calm face, as he admired the boy's quick thinking. Meanwhile Falbium, yawn but with a smile as he respected the new kid for his guts and power. Laharl stayed silent a bit longer, before finishing his little speech with, "Thought so..." turning to the Four Satan, he expressed his sincere apologies...in his own way...for causing an uproar. Sirzechs waved his right arm, and said it was alright, as Laharl walked off the stage.

As he made his way through the crowd, they were looking at the young, red and blue antennae haired Bael heir with respect. Then he came in vision with his cousin Sairaorg, without words they nodded at one another in a sign of respect. Laharl, he made his way back to his mom, friends, and girlfriends. Before the girls could jump and swarm him, his mom step fort with a stoic face, and her arm crossed under her breasts. The girls thought that Laharl might be in trouble but instead, Lady Belladonna, face turned into a smile and hugged her son, as she said to him, "Laharl sweetie. You've become soo strong and capable. Know that your father and I are very proud of you." Laharl was a bit taken back for what his mom said to him, but then he smiled and hugged his mom back, saying thank you, and that he loved her.

After a tender moment between mother and son, Belladonna, she allowed the kids to spent time alone together. As she felt that she'd needed to talk with Sirzechs and the other Satans, about what just happened. Belladonna left and the girls swarmed Laharl. Rias and Sona were amazed by what Laharl did on the stage, and also how he handled the aftermath, with Rias loving how he put the "fried chicken" into his place. While his girls were also ecstatic, Kyoko very happy and congratulating him, Ruby placing her arm over his shoulder, and kissing him, saying, "That's our man alright!!" and Albedo went in a fanatical admiration for their darling, lord, as she even mentioned in a sensual way, that she was ready for him anytime and that both her sisters were the same as her. As she said that, his girls blushed deep red, and snuggled closer to him. While Rias, Sona, Akeno, and Tsubaki gasp and started to scold and tirade Albedo about her wording, and as well as her minding when and where she should say those things, Laharl, only smiled and chuckled at the sight in front of him.

Meanwhile Riser how just regenerated from Laharl's previous attack. As Riser grinded his teeth, and tightened Riser's fists. Not only did Riser's plan backfired on Riser, but now Dad and Mom were looking at Riser disappointingly. Then as Riser looked for the punk, Laharl, Riser saw him not only with those three girls that should Riser's but with Rias and Sona!!! Riser jealousy exploded, as Riser saw Laharl reincarnated the blackwinged girl into Queen, the yankee like girl into a Rook, and the ninja girl into a Knight, then they kissed him again with soo much hot, spicy action!!! It should be Riser!!!

As Riser was releasing his demonic power, causing the white coat, lesser villain to be coated in phoenix fire. He decided to put his latest plan into play. Walking up in a smug attitude, as he got in between Laharl and the girls around him. Riser said, "Ahh Rias. As beautiful as ever, Riser is smitten by your beauty and prestige as a pure-blood elite. (turning to Sona) Of course, Sona. Your also lovely as well. With great magical ability of your Clan, it dazzling almost like Riser's phoenix blood." both Rias and Sona looked unamused in fact they looked at Riser like a complete annoying idiot. What he did next wasn't a smart move, as he tried to flirt and even tried to be forceful on Kyoko, Albedo, and Ruby as they were disgusted and angry. Before they did anything, Laharl wrapped his scarf around Riser's neck, lifting off the ground, and choke him. Laharl was pissed, as his reddish pink eyes were glowing menacing, and filled with power.

Laharl, he turned the fried chicken asshole, scratching and trying to burn his scarf with no affect whatever so ever to Laharl. His power, strength, and magic clearly at a higher level than Riser, making his weak-ass comparable to a small candle near his flesh. Laharl, he said to Riser, "Hey asshole!! Don't you ever mess or disrespect my girls again!!! Or I'll promise you that not even your mommy or daddy are be able to heal the ass beating that I'll hand to you. You got that, you useless fried chicken!?" Laharl, he smashed Riser face onto the floor with his scarf, before tossing him aside like trash. As he went to check on Ruby, Kyoko, and Albedo, as they were slightly blushing and happy that he defended their honor.

As Riser was being attended by his parent and his peerage. Yubelluna a purple haired beauty, the upcoming Bomb Queen of the Rating Games and Riser's Queen and lover. Karlamine a young reincarnated devil with blondish-brown short hair with some wrapping on it, she is Riser's knight but in name and piece, as well as a lover of the Phenex heir. Isabela the orange, spiky haired with red strands, that wears half a mask on her face for some reason, she is Riser's Rook and lover too. And the last members of Riser's peerage currently, are Ile and Nel turquoise haired identical twins that also dress the same, the only difference to identify who's who is that they tie a strand of their hair in mirrored side of the other, they are chainsaw wielding Pawns and lovers of Riser. They were all worried about Riser, since they all saw how powerless he was against Laharl, and he exploited one of the weaknesses of the Phenex Clan. All Phenex needed to breathe or be conscious to actually use their magic to regenerate. And Riser was almost choked into unconsciousness or worse.

But Riser shuke off all the hands that were on him, as he was blinded by anger. As Riser stood up, and Riser pointed at Laharl, as he did another stupid thing. Riser said to Laharl, "Laharl Bael!!! Riser challenges you to a Rating Game!!!! When Riser wins, Riser will get your peerage for Riser's own!!!" Everyone was shocked on what Riser just did, he publicly challenged the quite possibly strongest devil of his generation, and once again went after the girls, that clearly the young Bael cares deeply for. Laharl scoffed as he was about to decline, telling his girls he'd never treat them as a price or something to bet away. Making them very happy, and slightly blush at the love and devotion that their man and now king shows them always. Just as he was about to turn to face Riser, and reject his stupid challenge, his the golden scroll and the arrow marker of both his systems, appeared in front of them.

They quickly obstructed other from the view of the systems, as they display a...a challenge!? Laharl never remember him wishing that either system to have challenges. As both systems explained that Rating Matches count as a dungeon with time alterations, and such fell on both systems authority, by accepting and winning matches in a Rating Game, he and his peerage would be rewarded with a free level to any chosen unlock stat, and a charge for the Demon Summoning System, depending on the results of the match. As both systems disappeared, and it was clear that they were encouraging him to accept and participate in Rating Games. Sighing as he knows that the girls now know of the advantages of participating in this Rating Game, but he refuse to do anything without their input and concent.

The girls love this quality of their love, Laharl. As Kyoko was ready to fight alongside her Peerage and family whenever, Ruby expressed she eager to punch and stomp out that asshole Riser, and Albedo in a charming smile, said what they all thought, "Darling, Laharl. We are yours only, and we'll always be by your side. This bastard dares break such a bond of love, deserves no mercy." as some of her killer intent leaked out of Albedo as she finished saying her piece, and the other girls fully agree with her. Making Laharl smile, as they nod to him. He turned to Riser, and said, "First let's get one thing straight, I'll never use my girls are bargaining chips. I love them, and I'll never let any one to have them!! (getting closer to Riser, leaking out some of his demonic power in a clear act of anger and intimidation) But it's clear you need a asswhopping!! I accept your challenge and when we win, you are to never...never!!! Mess with me or mine again, you got that!!!?" Riser growled and accepted, making his poor mother worry, since everyone witnessed this challenge and acceptance of said challenge. As she turned to her husband, telling him she'll get Satan Leviathan to prepare the upcoming Rating Game...as he nodded, and saw his wife leave, as he sighed and wishes that Riser would mature like his older brothers.

PREPARATIONS Location the Rating Stadium, Team Rest Room A

A couple of hour later, after Riser challenged Laharl, and the Bael heir accepted. Leading to right now, after Lady Phenex came with Levi-Chan, and the Rating Game between his peerage and Riser's, they were taken to anothed location. The Rating Stadium, where official Rating Games are hosted in artifial terrains. Currently Laharl and his peerage were in a red and gold decorated room waiting to be called into the arena.

Laharl had his hoodie over his head, as Kyoko and Albedo sat next to him on a red sofa. While Ruby performed some practice swing with a new greatsword made from hellhound fangs, it was a large double-edge eastern sword almost like a smaller version of Sigfried Faust sword from Soul Calibur. It was still huge, but it served as a good temporary weapon for Ruby until he can get her Infernal Sword forged and enchanted.

As they wait. Albedo decided to talk about strategies to use against Riser and his peerage. Laharl use his knowledge of Riser's fighting style, telling Albedo that Riser's main strategy in rating game is to rush in and overpower the opponent, then outlast them depending entirely on his Phoenix Regeneration. In truth the only reason he won so many matches in DXD is his broken regeneration, nearly unlimited Phoenix Tears since his family produce the crap, and then when his sister Ravel using her strategic plans that he won more. Albedo listened to Laharl explain Riser's tactics, and she was actually amazed on how simple and stupid those tactics are. What if he meets someone that can suffocate him, or maybe was immune to fire?

Laharl shrugged and shuke his head. As he understood Albedo's disbelief. If Riser wasn't used to make the protag can continue to grow, since the whole Raynare started arc. He is honestly surprised that Riser was considered strong, but whatever he'll keep his word and give Riser an asswhopping that not even his parents would be able to heal. That comment made Ruby excited, and as she rested her new sword onto her shoulders, saying, "That's right babe. There's no way were gonna lose. We are gonna fuck their shit up, right Kyoko!? Albedo!?" making the girls nod, and get pump. As Albedo started making some plans that will result into a absolutely one sided win for them.
