Chapter 157: Chapter 157: Phenex Clan
I'm looking at the ceiling while lying down on my bed. A week has passed since I started training and came to the mountains.
It's been training from morning to night. We also repeated many offense and defence formation as well as combination that they may use for the upcoming game.
I look towards Issey who is sleeping on the bed besides mine. She sleeping peacefully.
Yes, she successfully sneaked in my room. Because Asia is deep sleeper she doesn't know that Issey is coming to room.
Specking of Issey, she is amazing. She made a huge jump in power because of the training.
And Akeno also started to slowly use her Fallen Angel side, not fully but she is starting to let go of her pervious grudge of her being a fallen angel.
Specking of Akeno, she also fallen in love with me after our trip to Nazarick.
[Akeno , Priestess of Thunder]
Love: 70%
Description: She is the queen of Rias peerage.
After Your sweet talk be she fell for you
She likes being a secret mistress more than anything.
Remark: Careful, she is a sadist, You wouldn't want to lose your second virginity, You Masochist.
"I am not a Masochist, You fucker system. Like who even writing this shit, Death is it your doing." I complained.
But she didn't replied. She is probably laughing her ass off in her realm.
Anyway back to topic.
Kiba also made lot of improvemeny in his skills he attained with his own talent and loads of training.
If he train even hard, then I have no doubt that he will on par with cocytus in sword technique.
In demonic-power training. Asia keeps on improving her. She starts to master using fire, water, and lightning, despite it being small. But Issey on other hand can only make a mass of demonic-power that is the size of a grain of rice.
So much things to achieve in so little time become I wasn't able to sleep I got up from the bed slowly and headed towards the outside to watch the night sky.
Being a vampire, I love night time more than day .
"Ara? Your awake?"
Rias voice came from the living room. When I look, there is Rias who is sitting where the table is.
"Ah, Rias. Hello."
"Why are you so stiff? Good timing, let's talk for a bit."
The tealight makes a faint glow on top of the table. As a vampire I can see at night and Devils can also see at night, even if there are no lights. Thanks to that, I was able to train them even at night today I don't train them.
Because of that I don't know why Rias was awake at this time.
I then sit opposite of Rias where we have the table between us.
Rias is wearing a red negligee while wearing glasses and tying her crimson hair into one.
"Rias, do you have bad eyesight?"
"Oh, this? It's just for looks. I can think more clearly while having my glasses on. Fufufu, this is the proof that I have been in the human's world for so long."
Rias chuckles. Even Rias with glasses looked beautiful... More like, she also looks wonderful when she wears a negligee!
On the table there are loads of paper that looks like a map and battle formation....Was she making a plan by herself at night?
Rias closes the notebook with different strategies written on it.
"...To be honest, the only thing I will get by reading this is to have a peace of mind."
Rias says it while making a sigh.
"Why is that?"
"If the opponent is another High-class Devil, then we could fight by reading this. This book is written with lots of research. But that isn't the problem."
"? Then what's wrong?"
"Raiser himself. No, the biggest problem is that our opponent is the Phoenix."
Rias takes out a book after answering me and puts it on the table. She then points out at an opened page. There is a picture of a fire bird with its wings spread wide open heroically.
"A long time ago the mystical beast, Phoenix, was looked upon by humans as a bird that governs life. It was so looked upon that it left it legend in many countries in the human world where it's told that the tears of the Phoenix can heal any wounds, and the blood that flows within its body can give eternal youth to those that drink it."
But there was also another clan that is different from the mystical beast Phoenix. They are the Devils that had the rank of Marquis, and were counted as one of the "72 pillars". The "Phoenix" from the Devils' side.
"The humans named the Devils' Phoenix as "Phenex" to distinguish it from the mystical beast Phoenix, however the mystical beast Phoenix has the same ability as Raiser's clan. In other words..."
"They are Immortal." I said.
"So you knew. Yes. They are basically invincible. Even if you attack them, their wounds will heal right away. Their flames won't even leave a bone left. Eight wins and two losses. This is the record that Raiser has at the official "Rating Game". He fought ten times and won eight matches. He lost two of the match on purpose as kindness to one of the households he is close to. In reality he won all of his matches. He already became a candidate to obtain a title in the official game."
"I felt something uneasy when I heard that Raiser was chosen as my fiancé. Yes, I think Otou-sama and the others chose him in case something like this was to happen. They chose Raiser so I will have no choice but to marry him. Even if it becomes a match between households, they knew that there was no way for me to win. In chess you would say they tricked me. A swindle."
