"Yes. I think he's doing this to give us the best chance possible. Trust him on this." Kiba answered though even he wasn't sure that this was the best idea. Still… what's done was done and there was no going back now.
"You talk big but you're just some no name mage. If you fail then you'll drag Rias' name down with you." Riser managed to shout back clearly trying to find something to refute Ritsuka.
"And if I wipe out most of your team in one move you'll look really foolish. But you're free to see that as all talk. After all I'm just a human."
Ritsuka answered with a clear laugh and devilish smirk. Their eyes met once more but Riser could tell he was messing with him… possibly.
"Enough! We'll settle this on Saturday." Riser roared in anger.
"Okay. Kill you twenty three times on Saturday. Nice to meet you after all." Ritsuka gave a very friendly smile as if all the taunting was just a facade. That pissed Riser off still as he turned to punch the foolish human.
As if on cue a large object appeared in Ritsuka's arm. At first it looked like a coffin but the three barrels pointed at Riser's head very clearly showed that it was more than it seemed.
The barrels were rotating slightly and the clicking of ammo being loaded stopped everyone in the room.
"Remember what I said… you try a hit I take a body part as payment and that was the implied promise and not a threat if it wasn't very clear."
Ritsuka growled out the threat as Riser was looking down the barrel of a mini gun that looked far too heavy for a human to carry. Said human was supporting said weapon in one arm which made Riser step back.
What had made Riser step back wasn't the weapon being hefted in his face. He would regenerate whatever damage the gun would have done regardless.
No… what spooked him was the glare coming from Ritsuka fully focused on him and ready to kill if he needed to. He wouldn't make threats.
"We'll settle this later then." Riser growled as he initiated the teleportation sigil and his entre party disappeared into light once more.
Ritsuka finally lowered the weapon as it disappeared into motes of golden light. Mentally, he had uninstalled the Moriarty's card which was a slight blessing.
Too many insidious schemes kept trying to float into his brain. He didn't need that. As he tried to take a breath Asia and surprisingly Koneko immediately tackled him to the floor completely sobbing.
"Ritsuka!" Asia cried out and she looked up towards him sobbing almost uncontrollably. Koneko merely looked worried and she had stopped herself from crying, though her eyes were very watery.
"Ow…" Ritsuka felt his back smack against the floor hard enough to actually hurt. Both girls were fussing over him to the point he wasn't sure where they were touching him. "Please stop. I'm fine."
"Y-you're not burned… like at all." Asia managed to stifle her shock as she examined every inch of his body.
"Senpai is fireproof?" Koneko looked shocked as she said it.
"Huh? No not at all. I was cheating at that time but he didn't need to know that, now did he." Ritsuka chuckled as he patted her head.
Grayfia watched the scene before her as the unenviable silence seemed to dance through her head. She just watched a human… who apparently cheated his fireproof ability… intimidate a high class devil without even flinching.
She was beginning to understand what Sirzechs was talking about when he said he didn't want to meet this human until later.
Since Riser had left everyone but Rias had gone over to check on Ritsuka. Rias was nervously looking at Grayfia who seemed to be examining Ritsuka closely now.
"I shall be back to get you ready for the game. I don't think that Riser will accept allowing you to have the home field advantage of the school though.
I hope your strategist is good at thinking on the fly." Grayfia muttered to Rias though she wasn't being rude about it. There was a slight tone of praise in her voice since he had made Riser dance on the palm of his hand… like a spider does to a fly.
"Yes. I'm glad I found him now." Rias answered back almost lost in a daze since the meeting had started.
With that Grayfia disappeared as well in a flash of light and a slight nod of her head. Ritsuka was finally allowed to stand as Akeno took her time brushing off the outer layers of his outfit.
She patted his butt far more than she should have though which made Ritsuka scratch as his cheek in exasperation.
"I'm good… I'll wash up when we get back." Ritsuka sighed as he grabbed Akeno's hand to stop her not unwelcome touch. A slight brush of his fingers across hers made her stop and smile at the slight affection.
"You're being a bit out of control aren't you Ritsuka?" Rias finally spoke up breaking the elation that had built up when Ritsuka had stepped out of the fire.
"A little. I'm very glad that happened. Let me figure out his mana levels and how many times I would have to destroy him just to get his regeneration to time out. Also found out my fireproofing plan worked as well.
If my taunting will go as well as it did and we get a certain landscape as the fighting ground then I could literally take them all out with one attack… providing I do so fast enough."
Ritsuka waved off the concern dropping a bombshell once more that he wasn't making idle threats. Rias let out a small cough.
"You can…" Rias' voice broke slightly as she regained her composure. "You can!"
"Pretty much. Though I would like to know if fire magic is their main attack force. I'm pretty sure if it is then I could make us win in overwhelming curbstomp fashion… though I'm sure that would raise more questions then it answers."
Ritsuka slowly lost himself to thought as he covered his mouth with his hand. He seemed to be pondering things.
