Sairaorg's fighting spirit was undeniable, but Badr was simply on Another Level.

His Demonic Power far surpassed Sairaorg's; the outcome of the match had been clear from the start. However, Badr respected Sairaorg as an opponent and felt he deserved a proper fight, a chance to showcase his abilities.

He hadn't held back entirely but had maintained just enough control to avoid a complete curbstomp. Unleashing his full power wasn't an option; the consequences could be… messy.

Seeing Sairaorg rise to his feet again, Badr smiled and renewed his assault.

This was a competition. As long as his opponent refused to yield, the fight would continue until one of them fell.

Sairaorg roared, his determination unwavering. Despite the mounting injuries, he still searched for an opening, a chance to strike back.

But Badr offered no such opportunity. His newfound ability was simply too unfair. He could perceive Sairaorg's weaknesses with perfect clarity. How could anyone fight against that?

It was like landing a critical hit with every single attack.

Finally, as Sairaorg struggled to stand yet again, Badr halted his advance, his sword stopping inches from Sairaorg's chest.

Regulus, the spirit within the Lion King's Battle Axe, spoke, its voice filled with sorrow. "Enough, My master, Sairaorg, has lost consciousness."

Badr looked at Sairaorg, who had collapsed where he stood, and nodded slowly.

"Concede and withdraw. Get him some medical attention," he said quietly. "I apologize. He's a strong opponent, but I couldn't afford to hold back."

He wasn't lying. While he had been suppressing Sairaorg, any lapse in concentration would have given Sairaorg the opening he needed to turn the tables.

Regulus, shedding a tear, said, "Even so, my master enjoyed this fight. He found joy in facing you."

"As did I."

Badr smiled and nodded, watching as Sairaorg was teleported from the arena.

The announcer's voice echoed through the stadium, declaring the match over due to Sairaorg's withdrawal.

Turning to Rias, Badr gave her a warm smile.

"I won the championship for you."

Rias, beaming with joy, ran towards him and jumped into his arms, the victory a shared triumph.

"This is your reward," she whispered, holding him tight.

Badr returned her embrace, savoring the moment.

After a few seconds, they too were teleported from the arena. Akeno and the others rushed to greet them.

"We won!" Rias announced, her voice filled with excitement.

"Of course, we did. I never doubted it for a second," Akeno replied, her usual cheerful demeanor returning. Then, her expression turned serious. "Though, I'm still a bit frustrated. I could have taken out their Queen, but I failed."

"You did well, considering your numbers," Badr said, shaking his head gently. He knew his own presence had skewed the balance of the match, occupying multiple Pawn slots. Thankfully, his ability to create clones had helped compensate for their smaller team size.

Sirzechs Lucifer approached them, a warm smile on his face.

"May I have a moment? Badr, there's something I need to discuss with you."

Rias and her peerage bowed respectfully. "Maou Lucifer."

"Please, go ahead," Badr replied, returning Sirzechs's smile.

"It's about your Promotion Exams."

Akeno and the others exchanged excited glances.

Badr chuckled. "Finally. I was starting to think I'd be stuck as a Low-Class Devil forever."

"Well, considering you repelled a Fallen Angel Cadre and thwarted a Khaos Brigade attack, you've all more than earned your promotions to High-Class Devil," Sirzechs said with a wry smile. "But who could have predicted you'd rise so quickly? The scheduled exam period is still months away."

Even this Middle-Class Devil promotion exam had been expedited by Sirzechs, solely for Badr's benefit. The High-Class Devil promotion exam was still a long way off…

"I don't mind waiting. Middle-Class is fine for now," Badr said with a shrug. While becoming a High-Class Devil would allow him to form his own peerage, it wasn't a pressing concern.

"Very well. We'll arrange the details later. You'll all be formally promoted with a proper ceremony and all the appropriate arrangements," Sirzechs assured them.

As Sirzechs departed, a throng of reporters surrounded them. Badr, seeing this, quickly pushed Rias forward.

He had no desire to deal with the press and their endless questions. He'd learned the proper decorum for a noble devil but had no interest in maintaining the facade constantly.

Rias, sighing, put on a smile and gracefully handled the reporters' questions.

Finally, after the commotion died down, they returned to the Gremory castle.

"Once the promotion exams are over, we can finally relax," Rias said, already making plans. "We should take a trip somewhere. It's not every day we're in the Underworld."

"That sounds lovely," Akeno agreed. "But don't forget, Badr promised me a date!!"

"…I remember. I didn't say you couldn't go on your trip," Rias replied, a hint of jealousy in her voice. Despite their intimate moments, she and Badr hadn't been on an actual date yet…

Asia and the others shared her sentiment. Even Koneko seemed slightly perturbed.

Badr chuckled. These girls…

The next day, Badr prepared for his date with Akeno.

He waited at their agreed meeting spot, and finally, Akeno arrived.

To his surprise, she had let down her usual high ponytail, her long, black hair flowing freely around her shoulders. She wore a dress, which made her appear even younger.

"Well? How do I look?" Akeno asked, twirling around for him.

"Beautiful. You look different today," Badr replied, smiling warmly.

Akeno beamed and looped her arm through his, pulling him closer.

Badr glanced to the side, noticing a group of figures hiding behind a nearby building, watching them.

'Rias and the others…'

He chuckled softly. They claimed to be okay with it, but clearly, they couldn't resist following them…
