At that moment, everyone was in a daze for a moment before all of them screamed even louder than when they did with Tannin.
"OOOOOOOOOOOHHHHH!!!!"
Riser and his peerage members also stepped forward without fear with the BGM that accompanied them.
All of his women were staring at his back with obsession as Riser was the center of the world at this moment.
Frankly, his appearance was rather gaudy with his favorite maroon suit, leather shoes, and black leather gloves, but amidst all of those formal clothes, a pink flamingo feather-like coat was draped over his shoulders.
In the end, he chose to wear this coat as it would have much more impact on his appearance.
As he entered, he also released a Phenex-like howl, causing tsunami-like cheers.
Riser knew that he lacked popularity as he was just a new player in the "Rating Game." He might have had ten matches previously, but those matches were as good as nothing, as his opponents were nobody.
However, Tannin was different.
Tannin was one of the top ten of the "Rating Game."
Even if Riser believed he could beat Tannin, the others might not believe so.
Moreover, Riser also needed to make his peerage members have more confidence, so he arranged all of this, creating momentum for them so it would build confidence within their hearts.
While a tiger dressed as a pig might be interesting, it also depended on which culture it was.
They were a devil, a myth from the Middle East, then spread to the West, so naturally, the first impression was important.
It was like how someone would underestimate others when they dressed shabbily, yet one would be in awe when they saw someone dressed in a suit, dress, or something luxurious.
No one might think that he would win, but due to this entrance, no one would forget him, and strangely enough, some of them started to believe that he might win.
It was all due to his impressive entrance and fantastic song.
Yes, a song.
It might be the first time an entrance song was used on the "Rating Game" since most people would usually enter after they were introduced by the presenter. Frankly, it was quite plain, so he added an entrance song for him, and the result was the best.
At this moment, the expression of Tannin and his peerage members was so sour as they felt jealous of Riser's entrance. At the same time, their expressions are also quite complex, as some of them were trembling when they were hit by his Demonic Power.
'No, the dragon is the most powerful race!'
With those beliefs and as their King also released his pressure, they regained their confidence.
Yet, all the cheers were taken from them.
"RISEERRRR!"
Saioraorg, who was Riser's best friend, shouted with all of his might excitedly. He might not have participated in this match, but he felt his blood was boiling, especially with Riser's expression.
Zekram Bael, Lord Beal, and the others who were related to Bael House were also in awe and felt their bodies were filled with adrenaline.
"Hahaha... this young man is interesting."
Zekram felt that it was worth it to come just to watch this show alone.
Nevertheless, Sona, Rias, Akeno, Xenovia, and all the girls couldn't look away.
'I want to be there...' Xenovia thought.
Still, Sirzech suddenly coughed as he glanced at Rias.
Rias quickly fixed her expression and returned to her previous calm expression, yet she kept stealing a glance from time to time.
"...."
Sirzech could only sigh, wondering what he should do in this current situation.
Only Issei's expression became complex and filled with jealousy.
[You don't need to worry, partner. Tannin is strong.]
"Yes, there is no way that this guy can win."
With those beliefs, Issei snorted as he hoped this match would start as soon as possible so he could see Riser fail soon.
---
[Wow, this is such an awesome entrance! It was my first time seeing such an entrance during my long years of career! I can see Riser Phenex's momentum has washed away the momentum built by Tannin-sama and his peerage members!]
Naud was even more excited as it was his first time seeing such an incredible entrance, but as a presenter, he didn't forget his job.
[Roygun-sama, Belphegor-sama, what do you think of this match?]
[Riser-chan will win! Riser-chan forever!]
Serafall was so excited as she waved her hand like a maniac.
[Ah, um, what do you think of this match, Roygun-sama?]
Unlike Serafall, who was Riser's brother-in-law, Roygun should be able to make a neutral comment.
[Wow... even from this place, I can feel the heat of his momentum.]
Roygun was also surprised by Riser's entrance, as it was the first time someone had made such an overwhelming entrance. Nevertheless, she was still clear-headed as she made a comment about this match.
[Nevertheless, Tannin isn't an easy opponent. The only reason why he wasn't in the top five position was because there are many types of rating games, and those rating games brought him a lot of disadvantages.
[However, such disadvantages are nowhere to be seen, especially in this "Lightning Fast Game," where the game will be decided soon.
[There is no doubt that Tannin and his peerage members will have a significant advantage in this match.]
Those words cleared everyone's mind, but Roygun hadn't finished her words.
[However, there is no doubt that Riser Phenex isn't weak. He had defeated many strong opponents, such as Kokabiel, the White Dragon Emperor, and even the governor of the Fallen Angel, Azazel.
[While many people still doubt his feats, I will tell you that there is no way such a thing exists. After all, if Riser Phenex really dares to create fake news, he will receive a significant loss to his reputation. If you still believe those rumors, then you might need to change your mind now since he is going to grow from now on, and as for those who try to sway people with lies, I advise that you better not show your face on the media from now on.
[In front of so many strong opponents, he dares to charge forward and keep fighting before winning.
[This time, it will be the same.
[We can see his spirit.
[Even if he is going to face Tannin, one of the Dragon Kings, he has no fear.
[As for the result of this match, we will see it soon.]
Hearing those words, Serafall nodded in satisfaction.
However, Roygun sighed in relief since she felt Serafall's stares were too deadly for her.
Once again, due to those words, everyone couldn't wait for this match to start.
[Yes, we will see the result soon! Now, not only the audience, but I can't wait for the match to start either!
[All the participants, please be prepared!]
Riser and Tannin, along with their peerage members, were then transferred to the game field for their battle.
The game field was like a ruin in the Underworld, as it was in the middle of the desert.
The area was similar to the Kuoh Academy, but there were no buildings or trees to hide, so the moment the match started, the two would meet each other, and the fight would start immediately.
[The time limit for the Lightning Fast is only for an hour!]
Before the match started, Naud explained the rules of the game.
[The victor is either the one who topples the other's [King] first or the team who has managed to defeat the most amount of enemies in terms of pieces value if both [King]s remain undefeated by the end of the game!]
The game was simple, and there wasn't much of an explanation, so Naud quickly started the game.
[START!]
On the monitor, everyone could see Tannin and his peerage members soar toward Riser and his peerage members.
When all the dragons were flying at the same time, it brought so much impact to everyone's mind, giving them trepidation and awe as they could see the perfect formation that was shown by Tannin and his peerage members.
"It's your time to pay, brat!"
"We are going to beat you hard!"
"We won't give you mercy!"
All of them screamed angrily at Riser as they wished to beat him hard.
"I will defeat you!"
Bova, who was Tannin's third son, also charged forward, ready to beat Riser hard due to his hatred.
Bova might have broken the formation, but Tannin didn't say anything since he also wished to beat the shit out of Riser, considering how much trouble Riser had done to him.
Yet, if Riser was defeated by Bova, his son, then what was the point of getting angry, right?
Instead, if Riser was defeated by Bova, it meant that was his limit.
If Riser lost against Bova, then Tannin wouldn't think of him as his opponent.
Yet—
"Lost Hurricane."
At that moment, a hundred meters of tornadoes appeared, trapping all the dragons.
Whether it was Tannin, Bova, or the other dragons were trapped inside this giant tornado.
[Wh-What?! Riser Phenex suddenly released such a gigantic wind technique!]
Everyone was dumbfounded by the change on the game field. When they thought Tannin would have the advantage, Riser destroyed all of that advantage with a gigantic tornado.
Frankly, while the Phenex House was famous for being born with wind manipulation, they hardly showed a wind manipulation ability as their fire manipulation was more potent and dangerous, so the might of the manipulation shown by Riser impacted and reversed all of their opinion about the Phenex House and him.
Nevertheless, Riser's "Lost Hurricane" wasn't as simple as just creating a giant tornado.
While this technique trapped all the dragons inside, it also sucked them into the center and also became smaller and smaller. Moreover, he also added a mirage inside the tornado with his fire manipulation, causing the dragons to be at a loss as they crashed into each other and fought by themselves.
If Tannin wasn't so calm and gave them an order to stop, then they might fight each other to death in the panic.
"Calm down. There is no way he can support such a powerful technique for a long time. Moreover, this tornado isn't harming us. As long as we wait for a while, this will be over!"
Hearing those words, all of Tannin's peerage members started to calm down. Even if they felt the wind got stronger, they still believed in their durability, and they didn't think they would be defeated by a mere wind.
Yet, at this moment, all of Riser's peerage members have started to move.
All of them suddenly chanted magic simultaneously and created a colossal magic circle below the tornado.
Riser also supported them in combining the magic.
Tannin and everyone suddenly felt a chill due to the surge of the Demonic Power, yet it was too late.
The wind became even more intense, and they felt their bodies trembling for some reason, causing them to be unable to move, so—
"TEMPEST DETONATION!"
A highly condensed tornado filled with oxygen and sand suddenly combined with a giant explosion.
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMM!*
