DXD OVERLORD

Chapter 73: Black Dragon Emperor Part 3



READY FOR A FIGHT Location the Underworld, Bael Territory: Belladonna's Mansion

It's been 28 days. In two days their match with Sairaorg will start. As Laharl waited for the girls to be ready to head back to the Underworld, to spend the last couple days resting. He thought of all that happened on those final day. As not long ago Laharl, summon and consumed Shenron as he became apart of Orochi, just like Vritra. Ascending them into the rank of a Heavenly Dragon, and luckily meeting his in-laws...wasn't as catastrophic as he thought it would. Aside from Towa, he's earn the blessings from all that were summoned through his first of three Dragon Wish. As for his in-laws themselves, Scanty desired her own apartment, as her rule stated that she'd respect her little sister and brother-in-law privacy, but he'd made sure to tell her, she'll always welcome. Scanty, she smirked and thanked him. Arella, she'd moved into the mansion, spending a much time with her daughter, that Triggon prevented before. She, even took Raven, Kneesocks, and Daki to teach them meditation techniques to improve their magic. And other arcane knowledge, that will be useful for the three bishops. He'd build a cozy house in the wood of his lands, for Rin and Sesshomaru to live in. Also he'd showed Sesshomaru the dungeons, allowing him to kill monsters and grow stronger. He'd been spending a lot of time in the Catacomb Dungeon, or with his family, personally sparring with Towa and Setsuna allowing their skills to grow further. Mizore's parents moved into the shrine that Akeno works at, it'll be funny seeing the Priestess of Lightning meet her new bosses. As Laharl heard the girls coming down from the stairs, and talking to Arella. He also made sure to tell Sesshomaru and the other in-laws about the Rating Games, and the match that his peerage was about to fight in. Albedo, she made sure to contact Grayfia, to come get Sesshomaru, Rin, Towa, Arella, Scanty, and Mizore's parents and bring them to a special VIP boute for them to watch.

Another thing. His relationship with Towa, his sister-in-law is nonexistent. And not to any fault of his, Towa utterly dislike and didn't trust him. Typical demon raised as a human. He almost told her, that the world she comes from and loves is feudal Japan. We're harems were legal for those in high status and power. Besides that she was at least cordial. Regardless, now the girls have arrived, all ready. Arella, she hugged Raven and wished them all luck, promising her daughter and the rest of them that she'll watch the upcoming match. As they teleported back to the Underworld, onto his mom's mansion. After greeting and hugging his mom that welcomed them back, she was amazed as the growth that they all went through in just a month. He has a lot of things to tell her, when...Rias, she pounced onto him. Calling him a idiot for disappearing for a month, and not telling her where he'd gone. Akeno and Koneko were happy he was back, and Koneko, she'd immediately noticed that senpai has grown quite powerful. He'd smell like a dragon...no like multiple dragons in one. She was in awe of her senpai's power...and a bit bothered, as certain instincts of her were trying to make her "do" something. She'd excused herself and rushed off. After his girls managed to pry Rias off of him, he'd gathered them in the library to tell them all that happened, during their training month...

MATCH BETWEEN THE TWO GREATEST PEERAGES SOON BEGINS Location the Capital City of Lilith, Rating Stadium: Resting Area A

Two days later. It was finally time. The long await match between the two Bael heirs' respected peerages. Right now Laharl and the girls were at the Rating Stadium, all ready for a fight. Now all they have to do is wait for the arrival of Sairaorg and his peerage. Eventually they saw Sairaorg and his peerage, all in their usual attire and ready for a fight. Before they left to their respected waiting room, Laharl and Sairaorg shuke hand in respect and shared a bit of banter between them. Sairaorg and Laharl basically promising to give the other a hell of a fight, making the other smirk, as they left for their respected waiting room. Laharl, and the girls were in what has now become their chosen room. The red themed room, the girls were doing last minute preparations for the upcoming battles. As Serafall was making the announcements and hyping up the match. They were ready as they'll ever be, and eager to get things started...

Location the Rating Stadium: VIP Viewing Area In the luxury, private VIP room. Sirzechs, Rias, Akeno, Koneko, and even Kiba as he came to the Underworld to see his bro's match, and cheer him on. As soon they're joined by a blue and white accented maid-uniform wearing beauty, Sirzechs' wife and queen Grayfia, as she opened the door to the VIP area, and allowed the guest to enter the room. Rias and Sirzechs were surprised to see Arella and Scanty which looked identical to Raven and Kneesocks. Then came Tsurara and her husband Fuubuki, lastly Sesshomaru and his family, Rin and Towa entered the room. Towa, she impressed with luxurious room, food and more in the place. Honestly she wasn't expecting this kind of welcome or view of the Underworld...she was expecting, well Japanese Hell in fact. But it looked completely different from her imagination. Then she saw her father, standing beside the red haired, handsome man. Sirzechs, he was curious about the silvery white haired man, as the human woman, Rin, she stood beside the man. Introducing herself and Sesshomaru, along with stating that they were were Setsuna's parents. Which Rias, heard and joined the conversation. Rin, she explained that she, Tsurara, and Arella were the mothers of Mizore and Raven respectfully. As they started to talk, Serafall announced "Alright!! Thank you all for your patience. The match between the two undefeated peerages is about to begin!!" all in those in the viewing area, stopped their previous action, to watch the match.

MATCH STARTS: ROOK SHOWDOWN Location the Rating Stadium, Pocket Dimension: Castle Terrain

Both peerages were teleported to the another terrain, that will serve as battleground for this Rating Game. This terrain is based of a medieval field with some woods, open plains, and a few castles here and there. Laharl, he though that it look a lot like the battlegrounds that Sairaorg and Rias would fight on in the future. Regardless, he called out his Vritra Zanbato, and like always he placed it over his shoulder, ready to fight. He turned to his girls, telling them to be safe and rise some Hell. Making them happy and excited, especially Ruby who has her Infernal Sword sparking with chaotic energy, it's been a while since she could let loose. As they all split up. Ruby she'd went to a field, with several boulders and rocks pertruding from the grassy ground. Suddenly a rock came flying towards her, without a ounce of panic or worry. Not needing to use her sword, for a meager peeble, so instead she'd smashed the flying rock with a punch. Shattering it with ease, as her opponent appeared before her. It was one of Sairaorg's rooks, a rock skinned devil, his name being Gandoma Balam.

Balam, cracked his knuckles and looked at Ruby Riotte, the first rook of Laharl. The blue spiky, antennae haired woman, without a shirt only a bra top and a scarf on her neck, similar to Laharl. Carrying a massive sword over her shoulder, smirking at him. Balam, he knew that Ruby is strong, and a brutal fighter, especially after seeing recordings of all previous matches, she's been apart of. He got into a fighting stance, Kuisha, trusted him to take down Ruby. Suddenly, she rushed in with her sword in a high position, it was obvious that she's going to attack in a downward slash. Balam blocked crossing his arms, trusting his toughness to handle...but as soon as Ruby's sword hit his arms, he felt unimaginable pain. The blade bite into his stone like flesh, and dark reddish sparks, pulsed through the sword. Balam, he could tell that Ruby and that sword of her's were really dangerous. So using his strength, he pushed off Ruby and got some distance, rushing over to a huge boulder, ans ripping it off the ground, he charged at Ruby.

Ruby, was excited this Balam punk was tougher than any other devil, she's face before. Not only being able to handle a heavy swing of her sword, now this stone guy, was using another rock to attack her. Smirking, she charged in. Using her Infernal Sword to smash the huge boulder that Balam, attacked her with. Suddenly Balam, he rushed her with a punch ready to be swinged. She was impressed, Balam used the boulder as a distraction to rush in and attack, Ruby, she welcomed the challenge. Smashing their fist against one another, causing a shockwave to form as a result of their punches meeting. Stinging pain surged on both of the rooks fists, this is the first time someone actually hurt them, with a punch. This made things more exciting for Ruby. As they'd started slugging at each other, focusing in pure offense over defense.

Balam was hoping his endurance and stamina can outlast Ruby's power. It was clear in that short initial exchange between them. That Ruby was faster, and stronger than him, so his only option is to outlast her in a contest of resilience. Ruby was getting punched several times by Balam, but she was way tougher now then when they'd meet a month ago. So all those punches that she was tanking, weren't as damaging as the cuts and blows, that she was landing on Balam. As the slug fest continues between them, it was clear that Ruby was winning a bigger margin. But she was getting bored, and decided to make thing more interesting, wanting to see if Balam was able to handle her in a larger scale of power. Smirking, as she smashed away his fists, breaking Balam's guard and stance. Leaving him open for her Hellish Knuckles, her left fist was coated in hellfire, as she attacked in point-blank range. Causing huge burst of hellfire, followed up by a pillar of hellfire, consuming Balam in these demonic flames. Only cause of his hide and stone-skin was he able to willstand these hellish flames, causing him some damage. But Ruby expected this earth is resistant against fire. While Balam was under the mercy of her hellfire, she readied her next attack, since Balam proved himself capable of handling one of her techniques, let see if he can handle two.

She tossed her Infernal Sword up into the air. Serafall, she gushed in awe, as she knew what Ruby was about to use. As several replicas of her Infernal Sword appeared around Balam. The pillar of hellfire, finally ceased and Balam was about to feel the full might of Ruby's Infinite Graves. She unleashed a onslaught of multiple slashes infused with demonic power that bursts into greater level, hitting Balam over and over. Blasting Balam higher and higher into the air, with each demonically infused slash causing a reddish burgundy bursts onto Balam. Causing greater and greater damage to Balam. As Ruby soared passed the brutalized Balam, grabbing onto her original sword, and dealing the final slash onto Ballam, causing a huge burst of demonic energy. While the rook of Sairaorg, fall onto the ground, crashing into a huge boulder below. Balam, he was utterly defeated, unable to move but still conscious, as Ruby landed right next to him. She smiled, and said that she was impressed he was still conscious after getting hit by her Hellish Knuckles, and then her Infinite Graves techniques. Groaning Balam, asked, "Ruby...were you ever serious in our fight, before?" Ruby, still smiling answered, "Around 30% serious. This was a fight, not a death match." this made Balam laugh, and said, "It's that soo?" as he knew he was beat and said, "I surrender, I can't fight anymore. Sorry Sairaorg, Kuisha." a white light started to cover Balam, and Serafall, she announced, "Sairaorg's rook retired!!"

Ruby, she'd had a good match. Now time to find another opponent, before her sister-lovers take any other good fights from her. While she'll admit if Balam was a bit more varied in his fighting style. He might be an even greater challenge, maybe Cerberus would have some difficulty handling the DXD Thing. But for her, he was just a good fight, almost a challenge. As Ruby, she rushed into another area in the terrain.
