Life In DXD

Tatsuya and the others were done meeting with the teams and were now sitting in a room along with Misla and Venelana who came to watch the match between their children.

All of them we talking to each other when the announcement of the two peerages entering the stage was heard.

After the rules about the dice figure game were made clear to the public and the commentators were introduced to all, the two kings were asked to come up on the platform and roll the dice.

Rias and Sairaorg both got on top of the platforms and took the dice in their hands and threw it in the bowl.

"Participant Sairaorg rolled a 1 and participant Rias rolled a 2 making a total of 3. That means both teams can either send out a knight or a bishop. There will be 5 minutes for both teams to discuss."

And then the area where both the teams were sitting was c

enclosed by an opaque barrier.

After the time was up Kiba from Rias's peerage and Beluga from Sairaorg's peerage came forward.

"So a match between knights, huh. Who do you think is going to win." asked Misla looking at the others.

Tatsuya's group didn't even took a second and all answered at the same time, "Kiba."

Seeing them answer in unison both the mothers were surprised but soon chuckled and Misla said, "Looks like this match is in Rias's favor."

Miyuki looked at Misla and said, "Don't worry the tide of the battle will turn around once Sairaorg or Regulus enters the game. They all are still no match for those two.....except for Isami, I guess. Afterall Onii-sama trained her himself after she got her aas handed to her by Sairaorg last time."

Seeing the girl trying to lighten her worries, Misla smiled and said, "Thank You."

Miyuki waved her hand and said, "No need for that, I only told what i thought was true."

All of them looked back only to see Kiba and Beluga being teleported to the rating game field.

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

Kiba and Beluga were facing each other with Beluga wearing his armour and sitting on his horse while Kiba holding his holy devil sword.

"So you are Kiba Yuto from Rias Gremory's peerage. Tatsuya-san has told me that you are a great swordsman."

Kiba smiled and said, "Well, it is good to hear that, so now shall we begin."

Beluga smiled and covered the lid of his helmet and said, "I really want to see who the better Knight amongst the two of us is."

Kiba gripped his sword tightly and Beluga gave the order to his horse to move forward.

Both the knights immediately dissappeared from their spots and in an instant appeared at a different part of the field with their weapons clashing.

"Seems like what Tatsuya-san told about you being fast ain't no joke."

Kiba smiled and said, "Thanks for the compliment you ar pretty fast as well."

A tick mark appeared on Beluga's forehead and he said, "'pretty fast' huh. Then how about something like this." and once again both the knights disappeared from their spots and started clashing against each other.

They continued to strike at each other and then disappear from their spots only to clash once again.

"You can keep up with this, huh." Beluga told Kiba who just smiled in response.

Beluga smiled and said, "Then how about this." he used his other hand to strike at Kiba who just made another sword and blocked the attack.

Seeing that instead of getting worried Beluga smirked though Kiba couldn't see that as Beluga's face was hidden by his helmet.

Suddenly out of nowhere the horse used his front legs to attack Kiba who out of surprise was not able to either defend or dodge the attack and was pushed back a few metres away.

But soon Kiba stood straight without any difficulty and said, "That was a heavy hit, looks like the horse get proper treatment."

Seeing him standing as if nothing happened both the horse and his master were surprised.

"H-How is that possible my horse's kicks are as powerful as normal rooks."

Kiba smiled and asked, "Have you ever trained being a meat shield for Asia-san?"

"W-w-what?"

"I did that once, those are the most painful times I can ever remember. I had to recieve hits all over my body, without rest, without injuries, the only thing that I recieved was pain, I was not even allowed to pass out, the moment I started to blank out, I was healed once again to start from the beginning. The whole day I was hit even walking felt painful all those times. Have you ever trained like that?"

Hearing that the whole audience was silent looking at the blond haired boy with shocked expression on their faces, though in the room where Tatsuya and the others were sitting all of them were looking at Asia who was the one who trained Asia during the training camp before the match with Riser.

Himari looked at Asia and asked, "Do you really had to break him that much?"

Asia looked at Tatsuya and said, "Weren't you the one who told me to train him like that?"

Tatsuya looked back at her and said, "I never told you to break him. What would you have done if something got awaken in him at that time and he became like Baraqiel? Just imagining Kiba acting like that will give you shivers."

All of them who had met Baraqiel earlier and were familiar with his nature tried to imagine Kiba acting like that. In the next instant all of them shook their heads to get that image out of their minds.

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

Back to the rating game:

Kiba then closed his eyes and said, "But still, because of those punches, I have developed enough resistance to shake off attack like those without any problems, now it's my turn." and then got into his stance.

Beluga immediately got into his stance as well and formed multiple clones of himself.

Seeing the clones Kiba said, "I can deal with them with my new trick but-"

He crouched down a little and said, "Let me show you the speed which Tatsuya must have told you about." and vanished from his spot once again seeing which the clones vanished as well, but this time instead of them Seeing clashing against eachother it was Kiba pointing his sword towards the fallen Beluga who had his armour filled with dents and his helmet cracked. His horse was lying down somewhere else totally unconcious.

Beluga looked at Kiba with blood coming out of his mout and nose and said with difficulty, "Your speed is really something else."

Kiba smiled and said, "I had dodge some of those punches as well, you know."

Beluga chuckled and said, "Looks like I have to ask Sairaorg-sama to hit me as his punching bag from now on." and then got dissipated in light particles.

Seeing the body dissappear Kiba sighed and unsummoned his swords.

"THE WINNER OF THE FIRST ROUND IS KIBA YUTO FROM RIAS GREMORY'S PEERAGE!!!"
