  "Cp, cp, cp!" Roy appuded Saya's strategy.

  "Amazing, Saya! You're incredible!"

  He hadn't expected Saya to devise such a well-anized pn, using a simple and easy-to-uand approaspired by games.

  He was curious if Saya had pyed League of Legends before.

  The strength was banced across the three nes. By pushing simultaneously, they wouldn't have to worry about enemy Pawns reag their base.

  And with Nezuko and Mitsuri ready to provide support, it was a foolproof pn.

  Even if they entered Yubelluna, Riser's Queen, they could handle her.

  Saya proudly raised her , basking in Roy's praise.

  The irls also looked at Saya with admiration.

  "Everyoake one of these," Roy said, handing out tiny orbs the size of his pinky nail.

  "What's this?" Mitsuri asked, curiously examining the orb.

  "It's a unication device. Just put it in your ear, and you talk to each other over long distances," Saya expined, iing oo her ear.

  It seemed Saya uood the purpose of the orbs.

  "That's right," Roy firmed with a smile.

  The girls put on the unication devices.

  "The's not waste any time. We'll proceed with Saya's strategy," Roy decred.

  "Yes!" the girls replied in unison.

  Roy and the girls set off.

  Roy wasn't pnning to wait at their base.

  The enemy Pawns wouldn't be able to break through their defenses and reach their base anyway.

  A swift and decisive push was his preferred approach.

  Sona, the match, frowned as she saw Roy's aggressive strategy.

  Such recklessness wasn't advisable, in her opinion.

  Rias, however, had no objes to their pn. She khe extent of Roy's and the girls' strength.

  They split introups as they exited the old school building.

  Roy decided to join Saya's group.

  On paper, they were the weakest of the three teams.

  However, uimating them would be a grave mistake.

  After all, Saya had Gyarados, a High-bsp;level Pokémon, with Ultimate-bsp;Potential!

  The three teams advanced quickly. The first enter occurred itom ne.

  "Ining! Three enemies spotted itom ne!" Aoi Kanzaki reported through the unication device. Her Jumpluff had detected the enemies.

  Kanae, Makomo, and Saeko, who were itom ne, became alert.

  "Hahahaha! They have the guts show themselves openly? They clearly uimate us!"

  "Fools! You've fallen into our trap!"

  Three figures jumped out from their hiding spots.

  They were Riser's Pawns: Shuriya, Mira, and Ile ahe twin girls.

  As soon as they finished speaking, red magic circles appeared around Kanae, Makomo, and Saeko, radiatiructive energy.

  "Hahahaha, this is the Queen's explosion magic! You all surrender now!" the three girls taunted, watg Kanae, Makomo, and Saeko trapped within the magic circles.

  The magic circles fred, and explosioed.

  Boom! Boom! Boom!

  Smoke and dust filled the area, obsg everything from view.

  ...

  Outside the subspace, the spectators watched the matfold on a rge s.

  "Oh no, they've fallen into Yubelluna's trap!" Sona excimed, her brow furrowed. She kneerful Yubelluna was.

  "I doubt they'll be defeated by su attack," Tsubaki Shinra ented, adjusting her gsses.

  Since Grayfia hadn't announced anyone's defeat, Tsubaki assumed they were still fine.

  Of course, Kanae, Makomo, and Saeko wouldn't be defeated so easily. This was just a simple trap set by Yubelluna.

  It might have severely injured Low-bsp;Devils, but Kanae, Makomo, and Saeko were all Middle-bsp;Devils.

  Although powerful, the explosion magic couldn't harm them.

  As the smoke cleared, the three girls stood unharmed.

  "What?!"

  "They're not even injured!"

  "How is that possible?"

  Shuriya, Mira, and the twins stared in disbelief.

  "Too weak," Saeko ented, disappointed by their ck of strength.

  She yearned for a challenging battle, not a fight against Low-bsp;Devil weaklings.

  Saeko moved with lightning speed.

  In the blink of an eye, she appeared before the three girls.

  A fsh of her bde, and she sheathed her sword.

  "So... fast..."

  "How..."

  "Damn it..."

  Before they could finish their surprised excmations, the three girls colpsed, dissolving into particles of light.

  Having suffered severe injuries, they were ejected from the subspace.

  "Three of Riser Phenex's Pawns have beeed!" Grayfia's majestic voinounced.

  "Yes! The pn worked!" Saya cheered, g her hands.

  "Saeko-nee-san is amazing!" Asia excimed happily.

  "It was just three Low-bsp;Devil Pawns," Saeko replied, feeling a bit disappointed.

  "Four enemies approag iop hey're about a hundred meters ahead of you," Aoi reported, her Jumpluff havied more enemies.

  "Finally, something iing!" Rika decred, drawing her Light Gun and Sword, her eyes gleaming with battle lust.

  The three girls iop ne, Rika, Kanae, and Shinobu, rushed towards the enemy without any attempt at cealment.

  ...

  Ihe school's spacious gymnasium, a voice echoed.

  "Don't bother hiding. I know you're here, servants of the Lucifuge!"

  Rika and the others had just ehe gymnasium when they entered the enemy.

  The one who had spoken was a girl dressed like -Li, named Xuen, a Rook.

  Behiood a blue-haired girl in red clothes, wielding a wooden staff. This was Mira, a Pawn who had instantly defeated Issei Hyoudou in their first enter in the inal story.

  The remaining two were twin lolis, Ile and Nel, also Pawns.

  Rika instantly reized them, thanks to the information Akeno had provided.

  Of course, in the Underworld, the members of Riser Phenex's peerage werely a secret.

  "Hmph! We don't o hide from the likes of you!" Rika scoffed.

  "So it's three Pawns," Xuen said, pg her hands on her hips and introdug herself with a haughty air. "I am Xuen, a Rook."

  "I'm Mira, a Pawn."

  "I'm Ile, a Pawn."

  "And I'm Nel, also a Pawn."

  "Oh? Introdus?" Rika raised an eyebrow, then chuckled. "Well then, I'm Rika, a Pawn."

  "Shinobu Kocho, a Pawn."

  "Kanae Kocho, a Pawn."

  The Kocho sisters also introduced themselves.

  "Alright, enough with the formalities," Rika decred, then turo the Kocho sisters with a fident grin. "I'll take on the Rook."

  "Then I'll choose that Pawn," Kanae said, smiling at Mira.

  "Eh? You wao bully two little girls?" Shinobu sighed, looking at Ile and Nel.

  "Well the's begin!"

  Rika charged forward.

  The Kocho sisters exged gnces and followed suit.

  Each girl faced their designated oppo.

  Ile and Nel, with their Low-bsp;Devil strength, were no match for Shinobu, who was at the peak of Middle-bsp;Devil.

  Shinobu, feeling pyful, toyed with the twin lolis, her movements like a phantom.

  Kanae faced Mira, who was at the early stage of Middle-bsp;Devil.

  But she was still no match for Kanae.

  However, Kanae didn't io end the fight quickly. She suppressed her power and fought Mira at her level.

  Finally, there was Rika versus Xuen. Their strength was roughly equal.

  Xuen, as a Rook, possessed great strength and defense.

  Although Rika couldn't match her in those areas, her Light Gun and Sword were incredibly sharp, making Xuen wary of direct frontation.

  As a result, Xuen found herself on the defensive against Rika's relentless attacks.

  After a few rounds, Rika decided to end the fight.

  "It's time to finish this!" she decred, looking at the slightly disheveled Xuen.

  "Hmph! I won't lose!" Xueed.

  Rika smirked.

  She twirled her Light Gun and holstered it, then gripped her Light Sword with both hands, fog her attention on Xuen.

  "Wind Breathing, Sed Form: Cws-Purifying Wind!" she shouted.

  Rika unleashed four ced wind bdes, each capable of slig through an oppo's on.

  "What?!" Xuen was caught off guard.

  She had no choice but to raise her arms defensively.

  Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

  "AAAAAGH!" Xuen screamed as blood spttered.

  After blog the wind bdes, her arms were mangled and useless. She was no longer bat-capable.

  Xuen was theed from the subspace.

  Seeing that Rika had defeated the Rook, the Kocho sisters swiftly finished off their oppos as well.

  "Three Pawns and one Rook of Riser Phenex have beeed!" Grayfia's voied through the subspace.

  Roy's team erupted in cheers.

  Riser Phenex, however, was not pleased.

  His servants were beied oer another, while his oppo remained unscathed.

  "Don't think you've wo," Riser sneered. "I am Riser Phenex!"

  He turo Yubelluna. "All of you, go! Show them the power of the Phenex !"

  "Yes!" Yubelluna and the remaining servants charged into battle.

  ...

  Roy's team unicated through their unication devices, their voices filled with excitement.

  "Saya's pn is amazing!" Asia gushed, looking at Saya with admiration.

  "Taking down seven of their servants with ease. Well done, Saya," Roy praised.

  The irls also showered Saya with pliments.

  "Ahaha, it's nothing. They were just weak," Saya replied modestly, waving her hand dismissively.

  They tiheir advance.

  Squeak! Squeak!

  Aoi Kanzaki's Jumpluff suddenly turned around and chirped at her.

  Through their Familiar tract, Aoi uood its message.

  "Roy-sama, Jumpluff has detected eight enemies approag," she reported.

  "Oh, eight? It seems Riser has sent all his remaining servants," Roy ented.

  Riser had fifteen servants in total. Seven were already defeated, and now the rest were ing for them.

  It seemed Riser inteo eliminate Roy's group first.

  After all, they had two support members and Roy, the supposed "failure."

  The only one worth noting was Saya's Familiar.

  But Riser had sent Yubelluna, indig they had a way to deal with the Gyarados.

  Just as they were discussing this, Riser's servants appeared before them.

  "I am Karmine, Knight of Riser Phenex! Let's have an honorable duel!" A woman wielding a longsword stepped forward. She was Riser's Knight.

  Aoi Kanzaki met her challenge.

  "I am Aoi Kanzaki, Pawn of Roy-sama! I accept your challenge!"

  Aoi was a Demon Syer who had passed the Final Sele.

  However, due to her timid nature, she had remai the Butterfly Mansion as a medic.

  But after being a Devil, she had gaihe strength of a Middle-bsp;Devil, aimidity had lessened.

  She didn't back down from Karmine, who was also a Middle-bsp;Devil.

  "Well said, Pawn of the Lucifuge!" Karmine excimed, impressed by Aoi's ce. She charged forward with a battle cry.

  Aoi met her charge.

  g! g! g! Bang! Bang! Bang!

  The two swordswomen cshed, their bdes ringing against each other.

  "Karmine, holy, all she thinks about is swords, swords, swords..."

  "She was so relut to be a sacrificial pawn. How foolish."

  A girl with a Lolita dress and springy blonde pigtails stepped forward, muttering pints.

  It was Ravel Phenex, Riser's younger sister.

  She g Roy and scoffed. "He's quite handsome, but unfortunately, he's a failure. Rias-sama has terrible taste in men."

  Saya and Asia gred at Ravel.

  "Pretty face, but a venomous tongue," Saya retorted.

  "So, you're saying those seven we defeated were just bait?"

  "Hahaha, you're not as stupid as you look. Yes, those seven were bait to divide your forces. Now that we've lured you out, we'll finish you off, and victory will be ours," Ravel decred smugly.

  It seemed she was the one who had devised this pn. Roy and his group hadn't bothered cealing their movements.

  So, the seven servants they had defeated were indeed bait.

  However, Roy wasn't fooled. In fact, he found it amusing.

  When Aoi had informed them that all eight remaining enemies were heading their way, Rika and the others iop ne, Saeko and the others itom ne, and Nezuko and Mitsuri, the junglers, had already started verging on their location.

  Kuoh Academy wasn't that rge. They could reach them within a minute.

  Nezuko and Mitsuri would be even faster.

  Ohey formed an encirclement, Riser's servants wouldn't be able to escape.

  "Saya, I'll leave this to you," Roy said, pulling Asia aside.

  "No problem!" Saya replied eagerly. This was exactly what she wao do.

  She looked at Ravel and the others. "If you want to finish us off, e a us!"

  "Koi, it's time to work!" Saya grihrowing her Poké Ball. A golden light erupted from the ball.

  "Roar!"

  The massive Gyarados appeared.

  Its intimidating aura filled the area, causing several of Riser's servants to tremble in fear.

  Even Ravel, who hadn't seen Gyarados before, turned pale.

  "Wait... wait..."

  "I'm not participating in the fight."

  Ravel waved her hands frantically.

  She didn't want to fight this scary Familiar.

  "I don't care. Koi, attack! Use Hydro Pump!" Saya ignored her pleas and anded Gyarados.
