Endless Plunder in High School DxD

“Cough Cough, this is truly the most unique Rating Game in history.”

“Everyone, please be quiet, I will now announce the detailed rules of this match.”

Due to the news of Tenraku and Sitri Sona’s engagement, the entire venue was abuzz. As the host’s voice resounded, the audience gradually quieted down.

“Firstly, we have prepared a special arena for this match. Please look at the screen.”

All eyes were drawn to the screen. Suddenly, the image of a scene within a different dimension appeared on the holographic screen— a vast forest enclosed by towering walls, with a combat arena at its center, constructed from stone bricks.

“This match is divided into two parts: the Peerage Interception War and the Great Chaotic War of Kings and Peerage.”

“After the match begins, Prince Tenraku and his Peerage, along with Princess Rias and Princess Sona, will be directly transported to the combat arena at the center of the forest. Meanwhile, the Peerage of Princess Rias and Princess Sona will be separately transported to two unknown locations on the forest’s edge.”

“In the first part, the Peerage Interception War, the three Kings will be on standby and cannot participate in battle. Princess Rias and Princess Sona’s Peerage must reach the combat arena at the center of the forest within the specified time to activate their respective Kings.

Prince Tenraku’s Peerage, on the other hand, must intercept the opposing Peerage and weaken their strength as much as possible.”

“By the way, if Princess Rias and Princess Sona’s Peerage fail to reach the combat arena within the specified time or are defeated before reaching it, their Kings will lose the opportunity to activate and will automatically be deemed as having failed and will be disqualified from the match!”

These were truly intriguing rules. Hearing the host’s explanation, everyone couldn’t help but anticipate the match even more. One of the charms of the Rating Game was its flexible and adaptable rules.

Although the rules had undergone various changes in the past, the positions of the Kings were always absolute. While the performance of the Peerage was important, the ultimate victory still depended on the Kings of both sides.

However, this time was different. While the Kings still played a crucial role in determining the final outcome, it was the Peerage that would decide the fate of the Kings.

If Princess Rias and Princess Sona’s Peerage failed to reach the combat arena within the specified time, their Kings would lose the chance to activate and automatically be considered a failure, resulting in their disqualification from the match!

Undoubtedly, this rule greatly favored Tenraku’s side. He had to face two teams simultaneously, so this was a way to balance things out…

Interesting!

Under the anticipation of the crowd, the host continued:

“After the first part of the Intercept, if Peerage of Princess Rias and Princess Sona successfully reach the combat arena and activate their Kings, we will proceed to the second part: the Great Chaotic War of Kings and Peerage.”

“There are no additional rules for the Great Chaotic War. The only objective is to defeat the opposing Kings to achieve final victory in this match!”

“However—”

“We are aware that Prince Tenraku possesses numerous Sacred Gears, and he also has the ability to share the powers of Sacred Gears with others.

Therefore, in this match, we have added a special restriction. Any Sacred Gear shared by Prince Tenraku cannot be used in the match by him. Sacred Gear abilities are not allowed to be duplicated in this match!”

Well, upon hearing this so-called special restriction, Tenraku couldn’t help but darken his expression.

Most of his powerful Sacred Gears had already been shared with Rias and the others—【Gauntlet of the Red Dragon Emperor – Boosted Gear】, 【Light Wings of the White Dragon Sovereign – Divine Dividing】, 【True Longinus】, 【Fog of Extinction – Dimension Lost】, 【Smile of the Holy Mother – Twilight Healing】, 【Evil Eye that Stops the World – Forbidden Balor View】, 【Infinite Gravity】, 【Prank of the Giant – Variant Detonation】, 【Demonic Sword Creation – Sword Birth】, 【Holy Sword Creation – Blade Blacksmith】, 【Inherent Barrier】, and 【Ruyi Fine Iron Rod】. According to the rules of the match, he couldn’t use any of the abilities from these Sacred Gears!

“Rias, was this also part of your prior arrangement?” Tenraku inquired, looking at Rias who wore a smirk on her face.

“I just suggested it to older brother, that’s all. If we let Tenraku use the same Sacred Gears as us, we wouldn’t stand a chance against him,” Rias responded, unapologetically.

Although it was somewhat exasperating, Rias’ statement was indeed factual. The reason Tenraku shared his Sacred Gears with the ladies was partly to enhance their strengths and partly to allow them to develop the abilities of the Sacred Gears for themselves.

It could be said that among the Sacred Gears Tenraku shared, whatever abilities Rias and the others knew, Tenraku knew as well, and whatever abilities they didn’t know, Tenraku also didn’t know. Without these limitations in the match, it would indeed be unfair for Rias and the others.

However, with these restrictions in place, Tenraku’s own usable Sacred Gears could be counted on one hand…

Letting out a sigh, Tenraku didn’t dwell on it too much. Despite this significant disadvantage, he was still determined to win this match.

“Both sides are clear on the rules of the match, correct? Then let’s officially begin!”

“Ooooohhhhhhhh!!!!!!”

Amidst the cheers of the crowd, the match, featuring one king and two queens, officially began.

…

With a flash of light, Tenraku, Rias, Sitri Sona, and the numerous ladies, including Yubelluna, appeared in the combat arena within the alternate dimension. However, Akeno and Shinra Tsubaki were nowhere to be seen.

Following the rules mentioned earlier, Akeno and Shinra Tsubaki should have been transported to the outskirts of the forest surrounding the combat arena.

“Competitors from both sides, please take note. I now announce that the match has officially begun!” The voice of the host echoed within the alternate dimension, and at the same time, a massive screen appeared in the sky above the forest. The countdown, displaying 30:00, began ticking down.

“Tenraku-Sama, please give us your command!” Standing behind Tenraku with the rest of the Peerage, Yubelluna spoke up.

According to the rules of the match, Rias and Sitri Sona were currently in standby mode. They couldn’t participate in the battle or command their own Peerage. However, the situation was different for Tenraku. While he couldn’t engage in combat either, he could still command his Peerage.

However—

“Yubelluna, you are my Queen. If I’m not present, then it’s up to you to lead everyone.”

“Since Rias and the others can’t command their Peerage, I won’t be giving you orders this time. I’ll leave everything to your judgment.”

“Do well. I believe in you.”

Tenraku gently stroked Yubelluna’s cheek and smiled as he spoke.

Faced with her master’s trust, Yubelluna’s heart swelled with immense emotion. Her beautiful eyes seemed on the verge of becoming entranced. Yet, this was quickly replaced by a resolute determination.

“Yes, Tenraku-Sama!”

Since Tenraku-Sama had such trust in her, she couldn’t afford to disappoint him!

Giving a respectful salute to Tenraku, Yubelluna and the other ladies leaped up and soon disappeared into the forest…
