Chương 9: Chapter 9

I'm really busy with my preparation for LDK so I am late in updating......Sorry about that :)

------------------------------------------------

10 days later, Bianka is summoned back to the underworld to watch Riser and Rias' match. Because her mother has now resigned from her position, she is the one who usually replaces her mother in important events. That's why this time she was summoned back to the Underworld.

Sona and her peerage chose to watch from the student council room.

..........

"Good evening. Sirzechs-sama, Ajuka-sama, Falbium-sama, Serafall-sama" Bianka greeted the four Satans

"Good evening, Bianka" They replied

"Mou....I told you to call me Sera-tan or Sera-nee Bia chan" Serafall pouted because Bianka didn't call her by her nickname.

Bianka smiled wryly and replied

"Serafall-sama, we are now in a public place so I can't call you by nicknames. After all, I am the current representative of the Leraje family"

"Serafall, just stop there. You're making things difficult for Bianka" Sirzechs interrupted Serafall

:Hmm...I see"

They could only smile at the behavior of this bubbly Satan.

"Lord Gremory, Lady Gremor and Lord Phenex, Lady Phenex. Nice to meet you"

Bianka then greeted the four people who were also in the room, they were Rias and Riser's parents.

"Nice to meet you too, Bianka"

"Fufufu.... haven't seen you in a long time. You're getting more beautiful again Bianka" Lady Gremory, Venelana said

Bianka's face slightly reddened hearing the praise from Venelana, Bianka idolized Venelana a little because of her strength. Even though she has retired from rating games, the story of "Flaxen-haired Madame of Extinction" is still heard to this day.

"Fufufu....you're still not used to compliments Bianka" Lady Phenex said.

"By the way the rating game is about to start let's focus on that" Bianka said in a bit of a hurry because of the stares the elders in this room gave her.

When they saw Bianka's behavior, they all smiled because usually this girl was always serious and mature. very rarely did they get to enjoy his embarrassed face. If any devils saw this they would be surprised because the ever dashing "Undefeated Knight Princess" was shy like a little girl.

They stopped playing with Bianka and stared at one of the screens in the room. The screens displayed Riser and Rias and their peerage.

"[Now we will start the Rating game between Riser Phenex and Rias Gremory. If Rias wins then She wants to cancel this engagement and if Riser wins then Rias will immediately marry Riser. Is this clear?]"

Grayfia's voice was heard, she explained about this Rating Game bet.

"Yes" Rias and Riser answered her.

"Bianka, who do you think will come out victorious?" Zeoticus asked this to Bianka. the others also looked at Bianka out of curiosity about the answer

"I think that Riser will win, the reason is that not only does Riser have Abilities above Rias, but he also has complete and experienced peerage. Unlike Rias who doesn't have complete peerage, her peerage also doesn't have any experience in terms of Rating Game. Riser's ability and experience are above Rias's so the chances of Rias winning are very small. Even then if the Red Dragon Emperor is able to reach his Balance Breaker Rias's chances still will not increase"

Hearing Bianka analysis they show a variety of reactions, from the Gremory family they have bitter face, Phenex family has smile in their face, Three other Satan look like they interesting in Bianka analysis except Falbium that has been sleep from the start.

What happened was just as Bianka explained, the cause of Rias's defeat was their lack of experience. Starting from Akeno who lowered her guard when defeating Riser's Queen even though she had not heard the announcement from Grayfia, as a result she was attacked from behind and kicked out of the game. it resulted in a series of events that destroyed them. finally Rias was forced to give up because she herself couldn't possibly beat Riser.

............

"Welcome Back. So, how did it go Bianka-sama?" when he returned to his mansion Rita greeted him and asked about the game rating.

Bianka sighed and answered her

"As expected Rias lost" hearing that, Rita just stood there and didn't show any reaction because she had expected it too.

"So, Rita can I hear the results of your investigation?" Bianka asked Rita this because before going to the underworld she asked Rita to investigate why there are so many strays in this city.

"Yes Bianka-sama. After doing a deeper investigation I found out that Kokabiel one of the Cadres of Gregory managed to steal the shards of the holy sword [Excalibur] and wants to do something in this city. He cooperated with one of the Holy Sword researchers and stray exorcist named Freed Sellzen. They want to attack Rias-sama and Sona-sama and want to start another war. I don't know about Azazel's purpose in this city because Kokabiel seems to be moving on his own. I didn't investigate further about Azazel because he can sense my presence even though I'm using [Iron Stalker] Armor." Rita explained the results of her investigation to Bianka. Rita Armor [Iron Stalker] is Armor that specialized in investigation and stealth, if Azazel even can feel Rita presence with that Armor then his instinct is really great. well, it's what you expect for the man who lead his faction from thousand of year.

"Hmm... can you find out the location of Kokabiel? About Azazel just let him be the most important thing is your safety"

"Yes Bianka-sama, but I'm sorry Bianka-sama. I still can't find his location" Rita answered Bianka

Bianka thought upon hearing Rita's answer 'If we know Kokabiel's location I can kill him before he does anything though it would be a bit dangerous since Kokabiel is one of Gregory's top brass. we already have proof of his guilt so this shouldn't be a problem' but because even Rita wasn't able to know Kokabiel's location one could assume that he probably wasn't in this city. 'But where is he hiding even Rita can't figure out his location?'

Sighing Bianka said

"For now let's just see. If Kokabiel shows himself I will immediately catch him or kill him"

"Yes, Bianka-sama" after saying that Rita prepared tea and offered it to Bianka with a smile

"How about a cup of tea?"

"That would be great" Bianka replied with a smile. then two of them enjoy their tea time peacefully.
