"Flame Delete. All flames that were useless, are even more so now." Kiba softly explained as he charged in to deal with Karlamine. The new sword held aloft ready for a single chop.
Knocking the stupor off, Karlamine forced herself up letting their clashing blades clash once more. The match was turning out to be stalemate as both sides were of equal skill level. Karlamine was still managing to parry those strong blows even though it was tiring her out. Kiba sped up his attacks but his rush left him unfocused as he struck back.
The piercing scream of a man broke their intense focus as the large wolf rushed through the area. Karlamine was distracted enough by the screams which was made worse when the wolf smashed Riser's face against another one of the trees they had raced by. The sickening crack and the near instant regeneration of his head got Karlamine's attention.
"Riser-sama!" Karlamine screamed out… before she realized her mistake. It was a simple one… one that she knew just cost her the match.
"Take this!" Kiba cried out as he released Sword Birth to its highest potential. Blades burst from the ground impaling Karlamine before she could rush off. Several blades would have skewered her fully had the system not immediately reacted.
'Knight Karlamine has been retired!'
"Glad for the distraction… time to go help Koneko then." Kiba huffed slightly. This fight had been going poorly and he needed some time to train a bit more. He knew he could be so much better and that was a decision he made immediately.
"Stay down!" Xuelan yelled as her and Koneko once again cross countered each other by accident. Neither opponent backed down and Ravel was unable to do much due to Koneko's fire protection breaking her most prolific ability.
'Knight Karlamine has been retired!'
"What… no!?" Ravel yelled out. Worry was starting to show itself much more now that they were coming to the end of the fight. There were only four of them left while the other team had everyone else. The sound of explosions and lightning were still dancing in the sky and Riser was nowhere to be found. Truly this was actually one of the worse Ratings Games that they had been a part of.
Xuelan and Koneko struck each other again as they were forced to focus on their fighting prowess. It didn't help that Koneko would strike out at Ravel from time to time forcing Xuelan to take a hit. If nothing else she would win through attrition.
"Hmph… going down." Koneko boasted in a soft tone.
Xuelan scowled as she lunged forward with a crane kick knocking through Koneko's guard. A grimace appeared on Koneko's face as Xuelan went for another kick. She had spoken a bit too soon even though she was dominating through the match for so long.
A piercing scream broke their concentration. The human riding atop the wolf burst out of the brush. That wolf was carrying Riser in its jaw as it ran with another sickening crack as one of his legs were smashed against a tree trunk. The wolf didn't lose its momentum and kept racing through their fight. Riser was forced to smash against another object while Ritsuka kept slashing at his limbs every time he tried to strike Lobo's snout.
Koneko took the chance given by the sudden sight of brutality. With a quick feint, she spun around Xuelan and immediately placed her into a german suplex. Rising through the air, Xuelan could only flail about while holding her qipao down. With a loud crash of dirt Xuelan was forced through the ground though Koneko wasn't done with her yet. With her prodigious strength she pulled her out of the ground for a second suplex… then a third and a fourth. She sent continuous quakes with each impact until finally Xuelan went limp.
'Rook Xuelan has been retired!'
Koneko dusted herself off and took her stance against Ravel. As she did so Kiba zoomed out from the brush wielding his blades against her as well. Ravel was forced against a tree and with the others capable of no-selling her flames she was left powerless.
"Sorry it took so long. Needed a distraction." Kiba was breathing heavily as was Koneko. Ravel didn't have the prowess to take care of them even with their obvious fatigue.
"Yes. More training is needed. Fight or surrender?" Koneko turned to Ravel who shrunk back from the two. She was outnumbered and outmatched at the moment. Without any of the other members around she didn't have a way to fight back. Ravel almost considered going all out with her flames but since Koneko had shrugged it off effortlessly she surmised that the Knight also had that protection.
"Yes I'll yield… can't do much to you at this rate." Ravel growled as she was forced to surrender from the game leaving only the King and Queen of the match alone..
'Bishop Ravel has been retired!'
Ravel was whisked away as well leaving Kiba and Koneko behind. They were both bruised though Koneko had the worst of it.
"We weren't ready… not even close." Kiba sighed as he looked overhead to the constant explosions and lightning strikes from Akeno and Yubelluna's conflict. Neither side seemed to be getting any leeway throughout the competition.
"No… we need more training then. We must be better so Senpai won't have to worry about us." Koneko answered as she too looked up at the spectacle.
"You think he was worried about us? He seemed really confident when we first started." Kiba scratched his head thinking much deeper about what had started the match.
'Ritsuka had sent the first volley thinning the numbers. Then he targeted Riser to keep him away from Rias while letting the counterparts duke it out. Finally he raced over being as distracting as possible.' Kiba mentally summarized as he thought over everything.
"It shows. Remember how he appeared when he did… see." Koneko pointed out the small wireframe bird that was floating around the two. "He made sure to handle the biggest threat for us to mop up the smaller ones because of all his preparations."
"He planned from the start to make Riser hate him specifically…" Kiba realized just how far ahead Ritsuka had been thinking about dealing with Riser as a threat.
