It was late at night, and Mikoto and the rest of his peerage were gathered in the ORC with Rias and her peerage. Mikoto was sitting in Rias's chair as his hands were folded on the desk and resting in front of his mouth while his eyes were closed in concentration.
"Mikoto. Mikoto!" Rias repeated till he finally slowly opened his eyes and looked at her.
"Please tell me you have a plan on how to deal with Riser?" she asked desperately, worried for her older brother.
"I do," Mikoto said simply before his eyes went to the door as it opened, and Sona and Tsubaki let themselves in before closing the door behind them.
"Sorry if I'm interrupting," Sona stated as she saw the worried expression on Rias's face and the cold, calm expression on Mikoto's.
Rias stood from her spot, leaning on the desk as she turned to face Sona, "No, please come on in, Sona," she said, smiling.
"Glad you could make it, you two," Leone chirped, waving at her.
"What are those two doing here?" Tatsumi asked aloud, confused.
"So, I take it you two are the ones who will be managing the broadcast?" Mikoto asked as Tatsumi looked at them in realization.
"Oh, I get it now," he said.
"It's Mikoto's first Rating Game. We wouldn't miss this spectacle for anything," Sona smiled.
"I promise, Riser will be destroyed, and before he is, I will make him beg for mercy. I will make him beg for death," Mikoto said darkly as everyone besides Izumo, Anna, and Misaki looked at him in shock.
A silver spell circle appeared on the ground behind Sona and glowed brightly as Grayfia transported there.
"It's almost time," she said as the spell circle disappeared. "I hope you're ready for this, my lord," she said to Mikoto.
"We're ready," Mikoto stated, sitting back as he let his hands rest on the chair's armrests.
"In a few moments, we'll use this magic circle to transport you and the rest of your team to the battlefield," Grayfia said.
"Where exactly is the battlefield?" Tatsumi asked.
"In a neutral alternate space created just for the game. Because it's not real, you have a full license to do some damage. You could burn it to the ground if you wanted," Akeno said, smiling.
"You also can't die in there. So don't be afraid to go all out on them," Misaki told them as Leone grinned, punching her fist into her hand.
"Alright! That means I can finally let loose and kill those bitches!" she yelled happily, getting a sweatdrop from Tatsumi and Issei.
"I'll be in the student council broadcast booth calling the game. We'll be cheering you on," Sona told Mikoto, who nodded. "Good luck," she told him before she and Tsubaki turned around and began to leave.
"I don't believe in luck," Mikoto told her, resting his head on his fist.
"I know," Sona smiled as she turned to look at him over her shoulder. "If I were a betting girl, I'd say you were gonna beat that scumbag seven ways from Sunday," she said, getting Mikoto to smirk at her in amusement before she left.
