The house of Zogratis known as one of the strongest devil houses and even rumored to be on par with the four great satans we're certainly a match to be reckoned with though the only thing holding them back from truly being on par with them was their...
After my meeting with Sirzechs I teleported back to my house and was greeted by Nero.
Nero: Hello Y/n, I assume the rating game went well.
Y/n: Mhm mhm... Yeah the Phoenix was quite a disappointment truly a shame in my opinion. Also anything happen while I was gon?
Nero: Yes it seems like Lord silva request to speak with you this afternoon. Shall I let him know that you'll be attending?
Y/n: just ignore him actually I won't be attending the meeting.
Nero: may I ask why?
Y/n: I already know what he wants and speaking of which how is Noelle progress?
Nero: she's been improving she's able to now do two different types of spells and her mana control has been a lot better.
Y/n: Please let her know to take a break I'll be going to teach her late.
Nero give a slight bow before leaving my room. When she was gone I started changing out of my clothes and took a shower before making my way to a living room seeing Zora there.
Zora: Boss I heard everything went well that's good to know but what's your next move?
Y/n: Rating game with Rias after that there should be no problems but who knows.
Zora: are we expected to participate or are you going solo?
Y/n: I would like you all to participate and get experience so I recommend you start training now it'll give us a head start.
Zora: got it boss.
After that I went to Noelle I began to train her on her magic for the next couple of hours before getting a message from Grayfia letting me know that the meeting will be happening around 3:00 in the afternoon. Until then I trained Noelle in her magic before leaving.
I teleport in to the orc club room as I hear Rias scream out.
Rias: Grayfia the last time I'm not marrying him or Riser I will choose who I marry!
Y/n: Did I come at a bad time?
Iseei: okay who's this douche.
Grayfia: this is Lord Zogratis current head of the Zogratis family.
Issei: and that means what?
Grayfia: he is the fiance of lady Rias. They've been engaged for quite some time.
I lazily glance over at the boy who now looks like his whole world has been destroyed.
Y/n: enough with the small talk let's get this meeting started shall we?
Grayfia: You're right my apologies if no one has any further questions will begin.
Rias: Akeno please bring in the tea.
Akeno: of course Rias.
Akeno left the room for about 5 minutes before coming back with a couple of tea cups and a kennel as she handed me and Rias the cups. I picked it up and took a sip.
Y/n: this is quite good thank you Akeno.
Akeno: thank you for a compliment sir.
I noticed how she spoken almost a monotone voice and she didn't bother to look me in the eye at least she was more neutral than Rias who look like she wanted to kill me at any second.
Y/n: What should we talk about first?
Rias: That's enough Y/n, why don't you understand I'm never going to marry you.
Y/n: Rias I understand but neither you or me have an option out of this. The council's is forcing us here.
Rias: then why don't you fight along with me!
Y/n: Cuz unlike you I don't have the freedom to do so or any backing.
Rias: sounds like a cowards words to me.
Y/n: a coward huh? Well not exactly considering if I wanted to I could kill every last member on the council before they could even comprehend what happened but that would make me no better than them and I'm also not too keen on being labeled a traitor.
Rias: I have no intentions of denying you your right to our name however let me be clear my husband will be my choice not my family.
Rias started subconsciously releasing her power in an attempt to intimidate me. Causing me to react the same as the room got heavy for everyone.
Y/n: Want to throw down here I'll be glad to do it.
Grayfia: There will be no throwing down with anyone. As you both know I'm here on order of Sirzechs so there will be no disorder of peace.
Y/n: I understand. I took a seat and went back to sipping my tea as I look at Grayfia.
Grayfia: my master anticipated there would be this type of conflict so as such a last resort is in order if communications break down.
Rias: of course he did please be a bit more specific at least.
Grayfia: If my lady Rias insist of putting her personal preferences in front of her family she used to settle this with a rating game.
Y/n: isn't that a bit unfair? After all I've been in multiple while she hasn't even competed once seems a bit too one-sided even for me.
Grayfia: that's why Lady Rias we'll have a handicap of 10 days to prepare if that's all right with you of course.
Y/n: of course it is after all I want to fight. A crazy smart came across my face as I look at all of them.

Y/n: I can't wait to break the red dragon and everyone else into pieces this is going to be so much fun I can't wait!
Issei: screw you! you really think you're all that just because your a pure-blooded devil.
Y/n: Rias keep your dog down before I personally teach him some manners.
Rias: Issei please stop it's enough.
Issei: I'm not going to sit back and let this happen screw this rating game or whatsoever I'll take you down myself. The kid summoned his sacred gear.
Y/n: hope you could survive.
I get up before disappearing and then reappearing right in front of him as I punch him in the stomach.
Issei: ugh ahh
Y/n: tell me is that all you got? You've been talking all this shit yet you can't even block a simple punch pathetic.
I grabbed the back of his shirt as I toss him into a wall before teleporting into my seat.
Rias: Y/n... Believe me when I say this we will annihilate you during this game.
Y/n: go ahead try I would love to see that happen. See you in 10 days Rias.
I finished the tea as I put it down before teleporting away.
All right folks that's it for chapter one. And on a quick note I'm trying to portray Rias and Y/n relationship as hate to love or maybe not we'll see what route I go the peerage will be the next chapter I do so goodbye
