Chapter 29: Continuation 29 - 30
Ojou-sama, Raiser-sama…" Grayfia broke the tension between them "if you do something rash then I won't sit by idly" she then looked directly at them, but Rias's peerage could be seen that her eyes were directly at Raiser as she spoke "I definitely won't hold back, for Sirzechs-sama's honor!" Grayfia finished in a dangerous toned. Raiser could do whatever he want, but bad mouth a member of her master's peerage mean bad mouth the Crimson Maou, and she won't allow that.
Raiser paled immediately at the cold eyes and cold voice of Grayfia.
"So, Ojou-sama!" Grayfia called for Rias "how about you settle this in a Rating Game?"
"That's right," Rias wiped her tears away and looked to Riaser with hatred in her eyes "Raiser, I challenged you in a Rating Game, if you lose, then you will have to take those words back and our engagement will be void"
"But if you lose… You will become my wife, remember that Rias" Rasier then laugh like he was crazy "HAHAHA, this game will be a joke. Except for your queen, the rest won't even be qualified opponents for my cute servants!"
"We will see about that, Phenex!" -NDxD-O0o0O0DxDN- Ten day later
"Man, I'm tired!" Naruto fell to his bed, after a week full of request from the human and working none stop. The first time in his life, Naruto Uzumaki finally felt what exhaustion means now.
It had been ten day already and he haven't returned to the Lucifer's castle and took more request from his master. With the help of his clone, Naruto could do multi jobs at the same time, and in ten day, he had finished nearly five thousand requested all over Japan, and now… he would need a nice twenty four hours naps, and get back to work again.
Before Naruto could sleep, a magic seal appeared at the middle of the room, making Naruto's raised his head in wonder and gasped when Grayfia appeared.
"Hello Naruto, I hope you're doing well."
"Ah, Grayfia-nee chan." He slammed his head back to the pillow "sorry Nee-chan, but right now I'm too tired to make for you a cup of tea, sorry"
"Don't worry about it, I'm here to deliver something from Sirzechs-sama to you." She took out a disc and a letter and handed it to Naruto "make sure you watch it carefully"
"What's it nee-chan?" he asked sleepily.
"Ojou-sama's first Rating Game, against Raiser Phenex-sama!"
Naruto's eyes snapped open and he immediately sat up, he opened the letter and read it and smiled. Naruto dropped the letter down to the ground and picked the disk.
"Well, I will watch it, thank you Nee-chan!"
"Not at all Naruto!" she turned around and prepared a magic circle, but before she disappeared, Grayfia turned her head back to Naruto "and by the way, there is something you would want to know."
"What is it nee-chan?"
"It's time for the Underworld to know who is the last member of Sirzechs Lucifer's peerage!" she finished with a mysterious smiled and disappeared. Naruto grinned and turns on the DvD player and put the disk inside, he jumped to the bed and began to watch the video, the words in the letter still lingering in his mind:
At the night, two days from the time you read this letter, the wedding you always wanted to crash will start, what are you going to do now?
Chapter 30
Ravel Phenex was having a bad day. She didn't want all this to happen, even though she was a member of her brother's peerage, she still didn't accept the fact that her brother had won by cheating.
She knew that Rias Gremory, her soon to be sister-in-law didn't have any experience in a real Rating Game but her brother was called a genius and had a lot of experience in Rating Games with 8 wins and 2 loses. But those loses were on purpose, which meant her brother could have won if he wanted to. Not only that, Ravel and Yubelluna were equipped with a bottle of Phoenix tears, while the rules clearly stated that up to two items can be used per game, Rias's peerage didn't have anything with them and the heiress of the Gremory Clan was still new to the games and was being ruined by her anger.
It was not that surprising when she found out Rias had feelings for Naruto Uzumaki, the one she had given her tears to. She also wasn't surprised that the white haired girl and the queen of her soon to be sister-in-law also had feelings for him, after all, who wouldn't? Naruto was kind and gentle, he never got angry at anyone, he even forgave her for the way she acted at her family's party. Not only that, he was very powerful at such a young age and very handsome too. Naruto would be the perfect boyfriend or lover for any girl. He would be the dream partner for every devil girl for sure if he came back and became even more handsome and attractive than before. The thought that she had proposed to him with her tears made Ravel's cheeks redden and she beginning to blush uncontrollably.
Ravel walked through the corridor of the Gremory's castle, deep in thought. She was wearing a purple dress with matching gloves and black boots and held a pink folding fan Ravel looked like a true noble lady coming from one of the greatest Households. No matter where she went, the maids and servants stopped what they were doing and greeted her with their heads bowed low.
Of course they were, after all Ravel was the youngest daughter of the Phenex Clan, the family of the legendary sacred beast Phoenix.
But her face immediately saddened, even though she held the power of immortality and Phoenix's fire, she knew that her power wasn't absolute and there was still a lot of weaknesses about her powers. Her oldest brother, Ruval had taught her that when she was small, so when Ravel grew up, she didn't become arrogant like Riser, who thought their power was invincible.
She had seen the defeated look on Rias's face when she surrendered the Game, the look of someone who had lost everything they dreamed about, the look that showed she knew she couldn't be with the one she loved. She had seen Rias take off the crimson bracelet, the same bracelet she had seen Naruto wearing two years ago when she was being dressed up with the help of a servant. The tears that fell from her eyes when she took it off from her wrist, saying that it didn't suit her and that she didn't have the right to wear it anymore.
She tightened her hand around her folding fan and stopped in front of the door of Rias's room, where the heiress was putting on some final make-up so she could look as beautiful as possible. Ravel took a deep breath and knocked on the door.
"Sirzechs-chan, Grayfia-chan wait for me!"
Serafall tried to catch up to Sirzechs, she just arrived at the Gremory's castle along with her precious sister Sona but she had disappeared somewhere with their parents and didn't let the childish Maou know. She tried to find her sister but Sona always found someway to outdo her and stay hidden. So with nothing left to do, Serafall decided to wander around the Gremory Castle and caught sight of the crimson Maou, Sirzechs Lucifer chatting with his head maid Grayfia while walking through the corridors of the castle.
