Hello.
This note is to let you guys know that I can't do bonus chapter this week.
I am still sick and was thinking of just taking a break for the week but I am feeling better, not that better if that makes sense.
So yeah, bonus chapters will be around from next week .
Hope you understand, That's all so enjoy the chapter...
Oh no there is another thing.
Read the fic 'Café Cosmos' It is written by a good friend of mine and I know it would shape up to be a really Good fic as I had discussed the plot with him to a certain extent.
And I am quite intrigued and am anticipating what come next, like how can you not when the mc's first employe is post endgame Tony stark?
Doesn't that sound like fun?
Give it a read and Thanks for reading.

"Adam you are not coming to watch the game?" Rias asked in shock as Adam told her that he won't be coming along.
"I won't,"
"Come on Sensei you should come and watch as we kick that fried chicken's butt," Issei also complained.
"Yes, sensei wouldn't it be better to see how much we've improved through the training," Yuuto really wanted to show Adam how much he has grown.
'I still can't compete with Sensei in swordsmanship, but I want him to see me win,' Yuuto got some special training from Adam, and his world was turned upside down after witnessing it.
"No matter how much you ask for it I am not coming along," Adam said and Rias couldn't help but ask.
"Then how would you know if we won or not?" Rias asked since Adam needed to know the result since it was important for their contract.
"I already know the result," Adam smiled slightly as Rias blinked before she smiled.
"Stay here, I'll come and talk to you after I win the rating game, Grayfia we are ready," Rias said and Grayfia nodded as she used the transfer magic circle to send them all to the designated location.
"Then I'll take my leave Adam-sama," Grayfia looked at Adam.
"I thought you were going to stay here," Adam said jokingly but…
"If I had the opportunity I would've, but I am afraid I'll need to take my leave, please do forgive me," Grayfia bowed as she left as well.
"Guess I'll just go and look around the city for real this time," Adam shrugged and went to Kuoh City in search of some manga and good restaurants.
***
At midnight the rating game between Rias Gremory and Riser Phenex took place with Sirzechs Lucifer, Zeoticus Gremory, and a few others as witnesses while Grayfia Lucifuge acted as the referee.
Rias had a very simple plan for this battle.
"Issei and Koneko handle Riser's servants that will come in the gymnasium to take control over it, Yuuto your job is to set up traps in the surrounding area and bait any attackers into moving away from the base," Rias spoke to everyone through her intercom all of her peerage members left the base leaving only Asia and her there.
[Yes president!!] Rias heard enthusiastic responses from Koneko, Yuuto, and Issei through the intercom.
"Akeno you stay in position after shrouding our base in mist and illusion magic," Rias spoke Akeno who…
[Ufufu~ I can't wait for my opportunity,] Akeno seemed ecstatic about something she was going to do but Rias knew that Akeno will not mess up the plan so she had no worries about it.
Right now everyone was in position and soon they were able to meet their opponents.
[This is Koneko, we've found three pawns and one rook in the gymnasium, currently engaging in combat.] Koneko's flat voice was heard by Rias, but she wasn't fazed by the fact that her servants were outnumbered.
[Wahhhh! Put the chainsaws down, hey don't aim for my little brother, Damn you!!] But then she heard Issei's panicked shouts.
'Are they going to be alright?' Rias thoughts with a wry smile but…
[2 pawns of Riser Phenex-sama have been retired.]
[I dealt with them while they were snooping around and I am currently facing a knight and a bishop in the multipurpose hall, so I need some help.] Yuuto's voice was heard and soon a response came before Rias even had to order anyone.
[3 pawns of Riser Phenex-sama have retired.]
[Riser Phenex-sama's Rook has been retired.]
[Support coming.] Koneko said flatly as their fight ended very quickly.
[We are on our way Kiba!!] Issei shouted full of spirit it seemed that the battle didn't really affect him much as well.
While Issei and Koneko were running toward the multipurpose hall.
Koneko jumped forward with full force suddenly and a big explosion happened on the place she was before.
"Koneko-chan!!" Issei shouted as he ran forward towards Koneko who was looking at something in the sky.
"You have good senses," Issei looked up and saw Riser's Queen flying in the sky looking at them with a smile.
"We trained in hell of course we have good senses," Issei shouted since the explosion reminded him of that cursed barrier where all types of spells were hurled at him.
"Anyway that doesn't matter I'll take you out," Riser's queen started to rain explosions down on the ground, she wanted to hit Koneko and Issei but her attacks never landed on them as they moved out of the way quickly.
"Fufu~, is running around all you can do," Riser's queen was smirking as she looked at the two running around but while doing so she didn't look around and…
"ArGH!!!!!" Riser's queen went crashing down after being hit by multiple lightning bolts.
"Ufufu~ it was a good idea to wait so she can get absorbed in her victory," Akeno blushed with a sadistic look on her face, she was waiting for Riser's Queen to get certain of her victory before crushing her in one blow to deal maximum damage to her and her pride at the same time.
But….
"That sneak attack was good 'Vestal of Thunder' You all have more tricks than we initially knew of," Riser's queen stood up and she didn't even look hurt.
"H-How is that possible? She was seriously injured, she is cheating surely!! " Issei shouted and Riser's queen just looked smug.
"You had no idea that we can use phoenix tears in Rating games, did you? it can heal most wounds without a hitch, And now you all are in deep trouble because your king didn't even consider this,"
"Ara~ this is perfect," Akeno's smile got bigger and Issei felt a chill run down his spine, "I can now crush you a few times over, you can give your king my thanks for this wonderful opportunity~."
"Issei-senpai we need to go and help Kiba-senpai," Koneko pulled Issei and started to run towards their destination while they heard several explosions and thunder strikes behind them along with Akeno's eerie laugh.
And as they reached the multipurpose hall they could see an injured Yuuto holding off the Rook's punches with a broken sword while they could spot a heavily injured knight also looking for a chance to attack Yuuto.
Issei and Koneko didn't speak, they went straight for the attack.
Koneko just drop-kicked the rook in the face while she was still trying to overwhelm Yuuto as Issei attacked the knight who was looking to take advantage of the situation.
"Koneko-chan Issei-kun," Yuuto looked relieved that the reinforcements had arrived.
"The Hell team is back together, No one is safe now," Issei shouted while striking a pose to look more intimidating while…
"Stop wasting time Issei-senpai," Koneko was already clashing with the other rook at full force.
"You got it Koneko-chan!!" Issei said but…
"Issei let me deal with the knight one on one," Yuuto said and Issei looked at him before nodding.
"I am impressed that you would do this properly, you have my respect, Knight of Gremory," Riser's knight rushed forward with all of her power in order to decide the fight in one blow.
'Focus,' Yuuto thought as he closed his eyes, he wasn't looking at the knight, he was remembering the small lesson he got from Adam.
'You don't need a lot of moves, even just one move that you've trained to the peak can be more deadly than all the different flashy moves combined, That is why don't move too much, look at your opponent and find the stroke where you can end everything in just one attack, Focus and find it, then end everything in one swift slash since dragging things on will just increase the risk,'
'He'll get hit this way,' Issei was about to jump in seeing that Riser's knight had reached near Kiba Yuuto but the latter was not even moving, not to mention that Kiba was still holding the broken sword.
But just then like a blur Issei saw Yuuto's body go past Riser's knight and his sword was laced with blood.
"H-How?" Riser's knight could only groan as blood splashed out of the wound on her front and she fell down.
[Riser Phenex-sama's Knight has been retired.]
But that wasn't the end as Koneko has also finished her fight.
[Riser Phenex-sama's rook has been retired.]
"Yahoo! Way to go you guys, the hell team is undefeated!!!" Issei shouted as Yuuto shook his head while Koneko just ignored him since he didn't help at all.
"Anyway we should go to Asia and get you healed Yuuto," Issei said and the three started running, it was then that they heard another message along with a terrifying thunderstrike that could possibly be seen from all around the battlefield.
[Riser-sama's Queen has been retired.]
"Sweet, Akeno-senpai is awesome!!" Issei shouted happily as Riser didn't have that many peerage members left.
