" Sairaorg?" Rias uttered in surprise and the man offered a small nod

" You should have told me that you were also coming to visit."

" He brought over fruits and other things from the Bael Region." Sirzechs informed "Also, he has some things to discuss concerning the next Rating Games with you."

Rias listened attentively same as Erissei who grew curious

" Aside from field rules, he plans on removing all unnecessary rules from the combat guidelines."

"Seriously?" Erin said in surprise and she glanced at Sairaorg. The man just gave her a confident smile

" Would that mean that they'd allow us to use our abilities?" Rias asked

" And removing the restrictions set on Erin?" Issei couldn't believe the news

" That is correct. I wouldn't be able to proudly bear the title as head of the Great Royal Family without going all out, right?"

The Goddess gave Sirzechs a look, as if saying whether Sairaorg knew the implication of his choices. The Maou just shrugged his shoulders in reply

"I can't do anything if that is what he wants."

"Why do I have the feeling that you're just letting things be because you're interested as to how it would turn out?" Erin said with narrowed eyes

" Devil boy." Tsubaki interjected which made the group look at him. " Are you seriously letting Master and the others to go all out? You don't know what you are getting into."

" Fear not, for I am well aware of what I am getting into." Sairaorg said with a glint in his eye. "I'm curious to see where my strength stands when compared to the Heavenly Dragons."

" Oh okay. Don't say we didn't warn you." mumbled Tsubaki in nonchalance

" Perfect timing, you mentioned that you wanted to exchange a few blows with the Dragon Emperor and Empress, right?" Sirzechs asked and Sairaorg nodded

" Well, then. How about a short sparring session?"

" That would be fine."

" Rias, would it be fine with you?"

" If my brother- No. If the demon lord requests as much.." Rias trailed off until she continued in an accusing tone.

" Then of course I have to refuse!"

" Eh?"

The group stared at her in surprise and the red head threw a tantrum

" Onii-sama what are you thinking? You would agree on letting Erin get into a sparring session with Sairaorg? A sparring with pure fists? It'll be fine with Issei but with Erin, that would be unacceptable!"

"Huh? But I don't see any problem-

" Onii-sama come on! Even if Erin is strong, you can't just let her have a fist fight with Sairaorg and a sparring which relies on pure strength. She's still a lady, for hell's sake." Rias face-palmed and the Maou's eyes widened in realization

" Oh-Uh.. Rias is right. That is truly not good for appearances."

" Yeah. Why would you suggest a fist fight with a lady, Sairaorg?" Issei glared at the man
