“A tournament, huh?”

You await in the lower halls of the Colosseum with Kiriko as the preparations are bring made for this impromptu tournament. Definitely not something you would have expected going into this mission, but is seems you have no choice. Amaya is still being hostage and can only be freed by one of you coming out on top in this tournament, and the current champion is the demidemon you were sent to kill. This Conqueror demon announced the tournament to have 32 entrants, 11 of which are demons themselves. The other entries have been filled out by those of you in your group who are most suited for battle. Of course, you are included among that list... however, there seems to be some disagreement over who will be filling the last spot.

“I gotta admit Kaz, I'm pretty pumped...” Kiriko smiles, as she notices you staring at the letter left behind in the dorms. She lets out a sigh before folding it up and placing it in your front pocket. “As soon as this is over, we'll go get her back, okay?”

You pause. “I don't know if I should...”

“Of course we should,” Kiriko lectures you. “She's our friend, Kaz. I don't care about what that letter says. Now come on, try to put it out of your mind for now. We have to focus on this tournament.”

“Yeah, you're right...” you sigh. “Gotta keep my head in the game.”

Kiriko nods with a smile. “Yeah, that's the spirit. Huh... looks like they're still deciding on the last spot.”

“Isamu, I need a spot in that tournament,” Ryoji explains to his blonde haired eccentric friend. “Me and Saki are the leaders, it's not right if I sit this out.”

“Ryoji Shida, my dear friend...” Isamu begins. “I understand, but you must listen to me! I, Isamu Iori, the greatest hero is the perfect candidate for this amazing test of strength!”

“Isamu...” Ryoji sighs. “Can we stop playing pretend for a second? You'll be crushed if you enter.”

Isamu stares at Ryoji then lets out a sigh. “I know... I know I don't have much of a chance, Ryoji Shida... but I still have to enter! I... I'm worried about Miss Arisato, about her health... I may not be able to make it far in the tournament, but I know that I have to try!”

“Dammit Isamu, don't make this harder for me...” Ryoji grumbles as he scratches the back of his head. “We're all worried about Rei, and I know you're supposed to be her protector or whatever...”

“Miss Arisato is a goddess among goddesses, the princess of my heart!” Isamu explains. “I can't abandon her at such a crucial moment. Please, Ryoji Shida... I'm asking you, as a friend. Please allow me to have the last spot in this tournament.”

“Crap, what a pain...”

>Ryoji, you should take that spot. You're supposed to be a leader.
>Hey, you should let Isamu join. It's all for his girlfriend, right?
>Let them decide among themselves. It's not your decision.

>Hey, you should let Isamu join. It's all for his girlfriend, right?

"Well, she's not actually his girlfriend..." Ryoji explains. "But... dammit, Isamu... fine. Saki's already in the tournament anyway, and she's the surefire winner if you ask me... but I should be a good friend and give you the spot."

"Ah, Ryoji Shida! Thank you!" Isamu exclaims. "I thank you with all my heart. You truly are one of the finest allies a hero could ask for!"

Isamu mobs Ryoji with a tight hug, leaving Ryoji to awkwardly pat his friend on the back. "Knock 'em dead, Isamu."

"I'm very worried..." Makoto mutters, clutching his arm. "My sister's freedom is on the line, but that last demon took me by surprise, and... I won't be able to compete. At least this supposed hero will take my place, Amaya has always wanted to be saved by a knight in shining armor..."

"Yeah, I wouldn't hedge your bets on that guy," Gado shrugs. "But don't worry, Makoto. As long as I'm in that tournament, Blondie is safe. I won't let any harm come to her."

"That's right!" Kuin exclaims. "Gado is the finest fighter in my entire empire!"

"Gado cares a lot for your sister," Anri explains. "We're all determined to save her."

Makoto nods. "Well... I hope we can do it..."

"Just you rest your pretty head," Chihiro smiles, twirling curls in Makoto's hair with her fingers. "We'll come to the rescue, darling. We always do!"

"It's a shame the dumb ape's not here," Kiriko sighs. "Roka's one of our best fighters, as stupid as he is."

"Yeah, we also could have used the help of Class 3..." you mutter. "But hey, Saki Kobashi, Rei Arisato, Akio Naito and me? I think we'll manage."

"How humble of you to put yourself in that sentence," Risa laughs.

You have no choice but to wait until the eventual first round match-ups are revealed for this grand tournament. Eventually, a weird Goblin demon scuttles into the hall and writes on it in some form of chalk. The line-up is displayed proudly on the wall for all to see.

>Saki vs Rini
>Hoshi vs Aeneas

>Gado vs Tane
>Odysseus vs Evander

>??? vs Priam
>Nanami vs Kiriko

>Alice vs Concordia

>Raiden vs Tiresias

>Risa vs. Sae
>Nariko vs Tami

>Mayu vs Atum
>Kazuma vs Pryderi

>Akio vs Seishiro
>Ken vs Glaucus

You stare at the line-up in wonder, examining every possible battle that can come from this.

>Pryderi, huh? I wonder what that demon's like.
>Hey Mayu, we might be facing each-other in the second round!
>Kiriko, you and I are in different blocks. We won't have to fight unless we both make it to the finals.

>Pryderi, huh? I wonder what that demon's like.

"Who cares?" Gado shrugs. "A demon is a demon. You're not going to get any surprises."

"I wouldn't speak so brazenly if I were you," Mayu explain. "Observe, Gado. You'll have to battle demons for two rounds straight. Perhaps you should be prepared for whatever tricks they have up their sleeves."

Gado smirks. "That's fine... I like facing the unknown."

"No good!" Kuin lectures. "Gado, as my chief guard, I command you to study demons before your fight!"

"Wouldn't do much good..." Gado mutters. "My fight is third up, I wouldn't have much time to study."

"But I don't want you to get hurt!"

"I won't, Kuin. I promise."

"Can you promise that to me as well?" Anri asks. "Gado, please be safe."

"Of course, Brainiac..." Gado smiles. "Anything for you."

As Anri and Gado have a short embrace, you notice Saki being approached by Rini Tozawa. "Haha! What do you know? It's me against you first!"

"Uhh..." Saki mumbles, hesitantly. "I don't think I want to fight you, Rini..."

"Too scared, huh?" Rini chuckles. "Well, good luck!"

The goblin returns and ushers for both Rini and Saki to make their way out to the battlegrounds. Before they do, the two girls share kisses with their significant others, Saki holding Ryoji close in a tender moment, while Rini presses her husband up against the wall and goes wild for a few moments. Lucky guys.

"I guess we should get going to the spectating area," Ryoji mutters. "Come on, everyone. Let's move."

You all take the steps leading to the row of seats closest to the action. As you sit down, you are joined by Kiriko. "So..." she begins. "Are we totally sure this Conqueror guy is genuine? What if the whole tournament is a lie? He is a demon after all..."

>He's a demon, but he seems sporting. I think this is genuine.
>I don't trust him at all, be ready for things to go south soon.
>We don't have any choice but to assume this tournament is legit.

>He's a demon, but he seems sporting. I think this is genuine.

"Let's hope so..." Kiriko mutters.

"AND NOW FOR OUR FIRST BATTLE, BETWEEN TWO OTHERWORLDER WARRIORS..." an announcer calls out. As you can see, the translation spell from Hoshi Sanada is still in effect.

From above, you see Saki and Rini entering the battleground from opposite ends. The two stare at each-other, before The Conqueror rises from his throne.

"FIGHT!" he demands, signalling the beginning of the tournament.

"Haha!" Rini laughs. "Finally a rematch!"

"A rematch?" Saki asks.

Rini huffs. "Come on, Sak! Don't you remember that fight we had last semester! It ended when I accidentally hit pirate-girl in the face!"

"Oh yeah..." Saki recalls. "I didn't exactly want to fight back against you then, either."

"Oh?" Rini chuckles. "Is the great Saki Kobashi going soft? You don't want to fight me after I made you my maid-of-honour, is that it?"

"Well... yes," Saki admits. "I'm the leader of Class 2. I don't want to hurt any of my classmates... let alone one of my best friends."

Rini cracks her knuckles. "Heh, you should be more worried about me hurting you! Come on!"

Rini launches herself at Saki, landing a strong punch right into Saki's shield. The force of the punch is enough to push Saki a few feet back even with her shield up, and Rini doesn't let up there, continuing to attack with punch after punch.

"Hey, isn't Saki supposed to be one of the best fighters on earth?" you ask Ryoji.

Ryoji shrugs. "Yeah, nobody beats Sak."

"And isn't Rini bottom of your class?"

"Yeah, but she's improved her strength a lot over the last semester. She's a force to be reckoned with."

It's true, you can actually feel the shockwave from each of Rini's punches. She's incredibly strong. Rini continues to push Saki around, with Saki constantly on the defensive.

"Come on, Sak!" Rini complains. "Aren't you going to fight back?"

"I... really don't want to..." Saki mumbles uncomfortably.

"Stop being boring!" Rini yells. "Hit me with your best shot!"

"My best shot?" Saki asks. "I don't think you want that."

Rini continues to punch at Saki. "Of course I do! I made you my maid of honour, and I demand that you hit me as hard as you can!"

"As hard as I..." Saki mutters. "Rini, you'll be hurt!"

"Try me!" Rini yells.

Rini punches downwards, and Saki leaps out of the way, as Rini's fist creates a small crater. "Sak, if you don't hit me, I'm not going to forgive you!"

"But Rini-"

"No excuses!" Rini yells. "Just hit me, Sak! As hard as you can!"

Saki takes a deep breath. "... Okay."

Rini punches into Saki's shield once again, only this time, Saki parries. As Rini recoils back, Saki pulls her shield back, before swinging it forward with as much force as possible.

Rini proceeds to fly across the entire arena, collapsing into a broken pile on the floor.

"AH! RINI!" Saki screams with concern as she rushed to her friends side.

"AND OUR FIRST BATTLE IS OVER! WITH A SINGLE STRIKE, THE OTHERWORLDER SAKI COMES OUT ON TOP!"

Saki hunkers down to help Rini back to her feet. Bruised and with a bloody nose from that single powerful attack, Rini can barely turn her head to look at Saki. "Sak..." she groans in pain. "That... was... awesome..."

With a thumbs-up, Rini faints as Saki embraces her warmly and carries her to the back.

"Wow... one hit..." Kiriko mumbles in amazement.

"Heh... that's my Saki..." Ryoji mutters to himself.

>She needs to get more comfortable with fighting others.
>I think she's our best bet for winning this tournament.
>Yeah... I can't wait to fight her in the finals.

>>1028843

>She needs to get more comfortable with fighting others.

Ryoji begrudgingly nods. "Saki doesn't want to hurt any of her friends... we all mean a lot to her. But this is a tournament, and Sak needs to know that to make it to the finals she's going to have to fight her friends."

Ryoji puts his hands in his pockets with dismay. "At least she won't have any reservations about taking down the demons in her way. She'll be our top demon killer."

"I take offence to that," Raiden mutters.

"Prove me wrong, pal."

Saki comes up the steps carrying Rini in her hands. "Hiro, please heal her..." she mumbles in a saddened tone. "Ryoji, I... she asked me to hit her... I didn't mean to hit her this hard and-"

"Sak, it's fine..." Ryoji sighs as he pulls her in for a hug. "You did good."

"Saki, I would kiss you if it didn't hurt to move," the barely conscious Rini groans as Hiro tends to her.

"Who's up next?" Saki asks.

"T-that'll be m-me..." Hoshi hesitantly raises her hand. "A-against a demon..."

"Don't be scared Hoshi," Ryoji tries to reassure her.

"I..." Hoshi sighs. "I..."

"Hoshi..." Reiji approaches her, placing his hands on her shoulders. "You can do this. I believe in you."

"Y-you... do?" Hoshi mutters.

"Of course," Reiji smiles. "Hoshi..."

Hoshi gasps as Reiji pulls her into a hug. He holds her tight before letting go, and sending her on her way.

"I... I have to be brave!" Hoshi smiles, determined as she pumps her fist. "I... I'll do it!"

Reiji smiles as he watches Hoshi walk off down the steps and towards the battleground.

>Do you really think she has a chance?
>Good work. I never would have expected you to motivate anyone.
>Saki, you better not go easy on Hoshi when she advances.

>Good work. I never would have expected you to motivate anyone.

"Well... I..." Reiji mutters, stumbling over his words. "I have a lot of faith in Hoshi Sanada. She's my pupil... and my closest friend. She can do anything she sets her mind to."

Hoshi wanders out onto the battleground, a scared yet determined look on her face. "Okay..." she mutters to herself. "I can do it... no matter what I have to face, I can beat it! I... I have my magic!"

"INTRODUCING... THE MOST TERRIFYING SORCERER IN THE REGION... AENEAS!"

"S-sorcerer...?!" Hoshi mumbles with widened eyes. "R-Reiji! T-the demon uses magic too! Aaaaaaaah!"

Hoshi panics as the demon step out onto the battleground and quickly gets to action, summoning up a magic circle, that causes the ground beneath Hoshi to rumble and shake before a hardened pillar of sand bursts up from beneath her. Hoshi has to move out of the way in order to avoid the attack, and begins to hide behind the pillar.

"Hoshi, don't panic!" Reiji calls down to her. "Stay calm! Use your brain!"

"M-my brain?" Hoshi mumbles. "I... okay. My brain. Be smart. I can do this..."

Hoshi readies her magic tome as she continues to hide behind the sand pillar, staring down the demonic Aeneas at the other end of the battleground. Her magic skill is likely matched, or even put to shame by the demon. She'll have to use her wits to come out on top.

Hoshi closes her eyes, and takes a deep breath as she readies herself. "I... I can do this."

Hoshi steps out from behind the pillar and out into the open, prompting Aeneas to fire another magic circle and raise the ground below her once more. Hoshi leaps back and hides behind it, timing her next movement once again. She continues to repeat this action, coming out into the open and timing the launch of each pillar to use for defence as she edges closer and closer towards the demon.

When she's only a short distance from Aeneas, the demon smirks before clicking his fingers. With that, the pillar comes crashing downwards, seemingly crushing Hoshi as she hides behind it.

"Hoshi, no!" Saki screams in fear, as Reiji looks away in shock.

Aeneas remains cool and confident, knowing that he tricked the poor girl into seeking safety behind his created pillars... until he gets blasted from the side with a series of fireballs, sending him flying through the air. Hoshi appears, seemingly from out of nowhere, as the spectators look on in shock.

"What?" Saki asks. "But we just saw..."

"Of course..." Reiji smiles proudly. "Hoshi had more than just one trick up her sleeve. She wanted Aeneas to think she was too trusting, so he could place her into an obvious trap... but Hoshi was one step ahead."

"I don't get it," you mutter.

"The Hoshi who was crushed by the pillar was just an afterimage," Reiji explains. "While the real Hoshi cloaked herself and got up close to attack him when his guard was down. That clever, wonderful girl..."

Aeneas picks himself up and begins to deflect the fireballs into the air, before creating another magic circle and summoning a massive snake made of sand, sending it towards Hoshi, ready to strike.

The sand snake comes flying at Hoshi, who manages to hop out of the way on time. The snake slivers through the air as Hoshi continues to dodge and weave.

"Crap, it has her on the ropes..." Akio mutters. "Don't give up, crybaby... you can do it..."

Hoshi continues to leap back until she reaches the end of the arena, unable to move back any further. With a deep breath, she puts out her hands out, and summons a pillar of sand of her own. She uses the pillar as a shield against the sand snake, and not only that... begins to absorb the snake into her creation, the pillar increasing in size and bulk as the snake disappears into it.

Aeneas stares in shock at Hoshi, who is almost out of breath... her straining to keep that pillar up against the snake was incredible. But now... now she's ready for her counter-attack.

"Excellent!" Chihiro claps her hands together.

"Yeah!" Akemi pumps her fist in celebration. "Come on, Hoshi! You're the best!"

"E... Everyone believes in me..." Hoshi gives a small smile, before giving a determined nod, ready to finish the fight.

Hoshi strains herself, placing out her hands as the the earth begins to rumble. The massive pillar before her rises up from the ground. She can't really be thinking of...?

Hoshi raises the massive pillar high into the air before turning it on it's side. "I... can... do... it!" she yells, before launching the pillar at Aeneas, causing a massive crash and filling the entire battleground with dust upon the collision.

When the dust clears, Aeneas is lying buried under a pile of sand, as an exhausted Hoshi falls down into a seated position and catches her breath.

"Wow..." Akio mutters. "Was Hoshi always this... powerful?"

"She's even more powerful than that," Reiji smiles proudly as he adjusts his glasses.

"That was incredible..." you mutter. You never thought that nervous little girl was so capable of... that.

Hoshi climbs back up the steps to the spectating area, and she picks up her pace as soon as she sees Reiji waiting for her. "I... I did it!" she smiles, as she embraces her friend with a hug.

"We're all so proud of you!" Saki smiles, as she joins in on the hug much to the dismay of Reiji.

"Huh..." Gado mutters, crossing his arms. "Guess that means I'm up next..."

He looks over to Amaya, being held captive in one of the rafters above. "Blondie... dammit..."

>Good luck, Gado.

"Thanks, Kaz..." Gado mutters, a determined look on his face. He bumps fists with you before making his way down the steps and out into the battleground.

"Let's go, Gado!" Kuin yells, pulling a miniature flag from her coat to wave. You're not sure when she got that, and you don't want to ask. You'll likely end up more confused. "Show them why you serve your glorious and benevolent dictator!"

Well, at least Gado will receive a lot of cheering this fight.

Gado steps out onto the battleground and points up to the rafter where Amaya is being held. "Listen up, everyone! My name is Gado Nemoto, and the woman up there belongs with me! That's why I will win this tournament! I will defend her honour with everything I've got!"

You see Amaya staring longingly from the rafter, as she sheds a tear and smiles.

"THIS OTHERWORLDER WILL BE FIGHTING AGAINST NONE OTHER THAN THE MIGHTY TANE!"

From the other end of the arena steps out a large and bulky demon covered in armour, carrying a truly massive shield, and an even bigger hammer. Each of his weapons as tall as even Gado in height.

"The mighty Tane, huh?" Gado smirks. "No problem. I'll take out this clown."

Gado readies himself for battle, as does the bulky Tane, as their battle begins.

Gado whips out his pistol, and begins to take a few shots at the bulky demon. Tane hold his shield up in preparation. The first five shots simply bounce off the shield and armour of the demon, while Gado's sixth bullet whizzes past him entirely.

"What the? How did Gado miss a target that big?" Kiriko asks.

"He didn't," you explain. "That last shot was the only one on target."

You're right, as you see the sixth bullet whizz through the air, hitting and subsequently breaking the chain holding a decorative Gargoyle by one of the rafters up. The Gargoyle falls down to the ground below and Tane, not realising that the first five shots were only distractions, has no time to move before the Gargoyle comes falling right down on top of him.

The crowd gasps in amazement, as Kuin claps her hands together. "Yeah, Gado! You show that worthless peon!"

Gado smirks as he looks up to Amaya. "Just sit pretty, Blondie..." he mutters confidently. "We'll get you out of there in no time."

Soon, Tane is back on his feet,raising the Gargoyle way above his head. He tosses the Gargoyle up and hits it hard with his hammer, sending it flying towards Gado.

The Gargoyle comes flying at Gado at an alarming weight, being tossed with incredible fury by the powerful Tane. Gado reacts just in time, leaping out of the way as the Gargoyle crashes into the wall on the other end of the arena.

"Ah, that was close!" Kuin laughs. "But Gado made it out of the way!"

"Yes... but barely," Anri mutters. "He needs to be more careful."

Gado picks himself up off the ground after diving out of the way, raising his head to see Tane already having caught up with him, swinging the hammer down with tremendous fury.

"No..." Anri gasps in fear, prompting even Akuro to try placing a comforting hand on her shoulder.

"It's okay, look..." she says, pointing out that Gado just about managed to avoid the attack yet again, rolling to his feet and catching his breath.

Gado readies his pistol and begins to fire at different points in the back Tane's armour.

"Doesn't he realise he can't do anything with that pea shooter?" Akuro mutters. "That's not going to hurt him."

"No, he's doing something else..." Anri mutters. "Kuin, he's looking for weaknesses!"

Kuin's eyes widen. "Ah, of course! Gado!"

Gado's eyes dart up to the rafters as Kuin calls up to him. "Just below the right shoulder!"

What? Kuin was able to notice a flaw in his armor even from this far? You always forget just how intelligent she is.

Gado nods as he seeks out his target and draws his sword and rushes down Tane. Tane takes a swing of his hammer, but Gado slides safely under it, poking upwards with his sword through the chink in the armour that Kuin told him of. Tane grimaces in pain, but Gado isn't finished there, prying upwards with the blade until an entire plate of the armour is torn from Tane, leaving a large chunk exposed. With that, Gado continues to stab into the demon over and over again, with Tane too slow and burly to defend himself as Gado finds a flaw in his defenses, taking massive advantage of it.

Gado has the demon dead to right, when the bulky fighter calls out. "I surrender!"

Gado pulls away with his sword, a giant smirk on his face.

"THE WINNER OF THIS BOUT, THE OTHERWORLDER!"

Two out of two demons down so far, that's a good start.

"Just sit tight, Blondie!" Gado calls out. "I'll be with you soon!"

Gado rushes back to the spectator area where he is embraced with a proud kiss from a surprisingly passionate Anri... as well as an eager Kuin jumping on his back. "Gado, did you listen to my advice?"

"I sure did," Gado smiles. "You won me that fight, Kuin."

"Haha!" Kuin laughs. "I knew I would!"

"This next battle is most interesting," Mayu mutters. "It's the only contest between two demons..."

>Yeah Gado, you might want to keep a close eye on this one.

Gado pulls away from Anri, turning his head towards you. "Oh... yeah, of course. Better to see exactly who I'm facing next."

Gado sits himself down behind you, with Kuin sitting on his lap while Anri plumps herself down next to him and places her hand on his.

"NOW, WE SEE TWO NATIVES GOING TO BATTLE!"

The two ends of the arena open up once more, as out step two demons. The first one decked out in red armour, adorining a face mask and carrying a large axe, while the other comes out all in-black, dressed in a cape and a hat, with a sword and lantern.

"INTRODUCING FIRST, A REGULAR OF THE COLOSSEUM, THE NOBLE EVANDER!"

Evander, the one in red, waves to the audience.

"AND HIS OPPONENT IS A MYSTERIOUS WANDERER FROM ANOTHER REGION, HIS NAME IS-"

"My name..." the demon mutters. "Is Odysseus! And I have travelled a long way to see your champion Hermes! Wherever he is hiding, wherever he is watching from, know this! I have every intention of killing him."

Huh? Who is this guy? Seems pretty damn adamant about killing Hermes... maybe he's not so bad? Or maybe... he's worse.

The fight begins and both demons move at a lightning quick pace, clashing blades with at startling speeds, both of them crossing the length of the arena in a matter of a couple seconds. With every blow, the air from their blades is enough to almost send you flying, even when you're far away from the action. These two... they're both incredibly powerful.

"Huh, they're quick," Gado mutters. "And they look strong."

"You have talent, friend!" Evander exclaims.

"We are not friends," Odysseus mutters. "I am a slayer. Here to seek vengeance against the one who has done me harm."

"You might have a good chance at it," Evander notes, as the two converse with their blades clashing in the centre of the arena. "I know when my opponent is holding back."

"Simply getting a feel for your strength," Odysseus explains. "I see I hit your limit from the beginning. Disappointing."

"Wait, they were moving like that... and those hits were so strong..." Kiriko mutters. "But the guy in black was holding back?"

"Not only that," Mayu adds. "He seems surprised that his opponent was giving his all. Meaning the very idea of moving at those speeds at hitting with that force are inconceivably weak to him. That... is a very worrying thought."

"You're telling me..." Gado mutters.

"Very well," Evander sighs, as the two break away and stand several feet apart. "I know when a battle is hopeless. I will hit you with everything I have, and I expect you to do the same. Are you ready?"

Odysseus nods, as the two charge at each other with their weapons. All you can see is a flash of light as they connect, but when the flash fades away, you see Odysseus standing tall, with Evander trying to nurse many devastating cuts along his entire person. Before Evander can turn around, Odysseus holds out his lantern as it releases a blast of energy, finishing off his opponent."

"THE WINNER... ODYSSEUS!"

"Just you wait, Hermes!" he yells. "I'm coming for you!"

Wow, as soon as he hit into a higher gear, it was all over... that Evander looked and fought like he would be serious trouble for any of you, and yet Odysseus took him out without even breaking a sweat.

"Just... who was that guy?" Kiriko asks. "And... is he on our side?"

>Any enemy of Hermes is a friend of ours.

Kiriko nods. "Huh... I guess so. I mean, it doesn't matter who kills Hermes, right? As long as Rei is there, we'll be in the clear!"

You nod. "Right. If this guy is the threat to Hermes he seems to be, we'll actually have more of a chance at saving her."

Ryoji shakes his head. "Still... I don't exactly trust the guy."

"Me neither," you reply. "But his target is our target. That's better than nothing."

"So..." Saki begins. "Next match-up is..."

"None other than I!" Isamu exclaims. "The great hero, Isamu Iori!"

"Isamu?" Rei mutters, making her way over to him. "You're really sure you want to do this? You know you're going to get your butt kicked, right?"

"Miss Arisato... For your sake, I must do this!" Isamu exclaims, cupping her hands in his. "Together, we will defeat the monster that has been draining your life."

"Isamu..." Rei mutters, before leaning into him with a hug. "Good luck... please."

"Of course, Miss Arisato!" Isamu chuckles. "Now, watch as the great hero takes on his first challenger!"

Isamu rushes down the steps in excitement, as Rei takes a deep breath. "Please, Isamu... please don't get hurt..."

Isamu steps out onto the battleground, followed by a rather large red-haired demon with horns.

"THIS OTHERWORLDER'S OPPONENT SHALL BE THE STAGGERING WARRIOR... PRIAM!"

Priam slams a huge blade into the ground as he stares down Isamu. "You send me a weakling boy like this?!" Priam exclaims. "He is not but a baby! Look at his scrawny arms! Why, who would swoon at the sight of that! He could not even defeat this staggering warrior in a pose-down!"

Priam, in a confusing display, begins flexing his muscles and posing relentlessly to the crowd.

As Priam continues to flex and pose, Isamu... in a bizarre display, chooses to remove his own shirt, revealing a set of abs, and begins flexing and posing in turn whilst yelling.

"You wish to challenge the great hero Isamu Iori to a pose-down?" He exclaims. "How very daring of you, staggering warrior Priam!"

"You think you can outpose me?" Priam howls in disbelief.

Isamu chuckles heartily. "There isn't a single man in my world who I, the great hero Isamu Iori, haven't been able to defeat in a pose-down!"

"What the actual hell is going on?" you mutter, eyebrows raised in shock and confusion. "Who... who's winning?"

"Haha!" Priam laughs. "I don't see much swooning, baby man!"

"Come on, Isamu!" Akemi yells, leaning so far over the railings that she's almost about to fall over. "You're looking really good!"

"Akemi, calm down a..." Ryoji begins, before trailing off. "Wait... I've got it!"

"Got what?" you ask.

"Girls!" Ryoji exclaims. "I need all of you to swoon for Isamu!"

"Ew, no..." Sae mutters in disgust.

"I mean it!" Ryoji explains. "If he has the right support, he can win this thing! Demons aren't going to start swooning, but if we do it, he has a chance!"

"No problem!" Akemi smiles, giving a salute before cheering. "Isamu! You're very pretty! You have a neat butt!"

"Uhh..." Kiriko begins. "Hey, Isamu! You're gorgeous! Call me after this fight!"

"My god, he is positively divine!" Chihiro swoons. "He could ravish me any day!"

"Good work!" Ryoji nods. "Keep it up!"

"Isamu, you're so hot!"

"Y-yeah, I-Isamu is a r-really handsome guy..."

"Yo, dork! If you ever want to join me and Kosuke in the bedroom..."

"Isamu, you're very nice and also very attractive! I still love Ryoji more than anything, but I can definitely see your appeal!"

All the girls continue to act incredibly stricken by the goofiest member of Class 2. Even the tall and serious Akira joins in. "Isamu, you're amazing!"

All the girls are either feigning are exaggerating their like for Isamu in order to give him support while he poses, all except for Rei Arisato... who sits shuffling uncomfortably in her chair, before taking a deep breath and rushing to the edge of the rafter screaming down to Isamu below. "Isamu, you're the single most amazing and beautiful person I've ever met! You make me feel amazing every time you're around, and I even fantasize about us getting married and you deflowering me on our wedding night!"

Whoa... she may have gone a little overboard there, but the overwhelming support for Isamu soon catches on, as the cheering and hollering for the deluded hero catches on throughout the arena.

Isamu smiles triumphantly, as Priam chuckles. "Well, it looks like I was wrong! You're the true master here, baby boy! Guess I'm done."

And with that, Priam forfeits the fight, walking to the back and leaving his sword behind. Isamu advances to the next round without either him or his opponent even trying to hit each-other once. What the hell did you just witness?

Isamu returns up the steps to a hero's welcome, as Rei hugs the still-shirtless hero tight. "Ah, I hope our ruse helped you out!" Rei smiles, before turning to the others adamantly. "Because that's what it was, o-okay?! Just a ruse, got it?"

Sure...

"Huh, looks like I'm up next..." Kiriko gulps. "Ah, my palms are sweating... getting a little nervous."

You hold your sister close with a good luck hug, before releasing her to stand up and make her way down the steps.

"Kiriko, please wait," Mayu mutters, before rushing up to Kiriko and embracing her with a hug as well. You suppose you inspired Mayu to take action. "Good luck."

"Thanks. Both you guys," Kiriko smiles, before skipping down the steps.

"Go get her, captain," Ken smiles, before planting a kiss on his girlfriend's cheek.

"Aye aye, co-captain!" Nanami smiles, before making her way down the steps as well.

The two girls take position on the battleground and stand opposite each-other, staring the other down... until the burst out into uncontrollable laughter. What's so funny?

"Haha, can you believe it Kiriko?" Nanami laughs.

"What were the chances?" Kiriko chimes in.

Nanami continues to chuckle as she readies her cutlass. "Looks like we're finally going to get an answer to our question!"

"What the hell are they talking about?" you mutter, scratching your head.

Mayu lets out a sigh. "Ever since they met at the beginning of the semester, Nanami and Kiriko have been bickering over which is better..."

"Pirates!" Nanami yells.

"Ninjas!" Kiriko fires back.

"Pirates!"

"Ninjas!"

"As you can see," Mayu states. "The debate devolved about a month in."

"Just so you know, I won't be going easy on you!" Nanami exclaims. "On this battleground, ye' be nothing more than a scurvy dog! Arrgh!"

"And..." Kiriko begins, before stamping her foot. "No fair! Ninja's don't have any quips to use! They're supposed to be silent!"

"Just another reason why pirates are better!" Nanami laughs as she lunges forward with her cutlass, but Kiriko is quick to teleport out of the way. Kiriko appears behind Nanami, ready to strike, but Nanami scouts the attack, swinging around to parry with her cutlass, sending Kiriko somersaulting through the air and onto her feet. Nanami draws out her modified flintlock pistol and begins to fire, but Kiriko easily dodges the bullets as she approaches Nanami, leaping up and hitting her with a kick to the nose.

"Ow!" Nanami yells, clutching her nose, beginning to sniffle. "That really h-hurt!"

"Oh..." Kiriko mutters apologetically. "I'm sorry Nanami, I didn't mean to-"

Kiriko is blindsided with a punch to the heart from Nanami, who rushes her as she gets close. "Ow!" Kiriko yells. "What the heck?!"

"Acting!" Nanami wipes away a false tear. "Pirates are masters of disguise!"

"That's supposed to be ninjas!" Kiriko yells. "You're getting them confused now!"

"This is embarrassing..." Risa mutters.

"This is amazing!" Akemi yells. "Nanami! Do a pirate laugh!"

"Yarrharhar!" Nanami yells at the behest of Akemi, but in doing so distracts herself from Kiriko who comes at her with twin daggers, cutting at the backs of her legs.

"I really don't like hurting my friends," Kiriko points out. "But we do need to see who's better. If I don't try to incapacitate you, we won't get anywhere!"

"No, I understand!" Nanami smiles. "Keep coming at me! Hit me with everything you've got!"

"Aye Aye!" Kiriko yells.

"Now who's confusing them?" Nanami smirks.

Kiriko dives at Nanami, but Nanami dodges, hitting Kiriko with a boot to the gut in mid-air. Kiriko goes flying before teleporting once more, appearing directly in front of Nanami. Kiriko punches the pirate in the gut, before teleporting above her and booting the top of her head. Nanami is planted onto the ground, as Kiriko comes at her with her knives. Nanami rolls out of the way, and as Kiriko's daggers make contact with the ground, Nanami trips up the ninja, planting her face first into the sandy ground. Nanami rises to her feet and swings down her cutlass, only for Kiriko to teleport yet again, just in position to hit Nanami in the face with a side kick.

Nanami flies through the air but manages to land on her feet, as Kiriko throws shuriken at her. Nanami, deflects the shuriken with her cutlass as she runs towards Kiriko, readying her cutlass to thrust foward. Kiriko of course ports behind her... only to take the hilt of the cutlass being rammed into her gut harder than she could have possibly imagined.

"You know, you have a distinct pattern to your teleportation," Nanami explains, as she knocks the stunned Kiriko down to the ground with a chop to the back of the neck that keeps her down. "You might need to work on that."

"Wow... Nanami really stepped up her game..." Ken smiles proudly.

"YOUR WINNER... THE OTHERWORLDER IN THE STRANGE HAT!"

Kiriko may have allowed herself to get a little cocky... she forgot that she was still facing an opponent from the class above, even if Nanami is a goofball who often doesn't get into fights.

"Nanami's got a lot of hidden potential," Ryoji remarks. "I remember when she fought back an order member by herself..."

"Poor Kiriko..." Mayu mutters.

>Eh, she'll be fine.

Kiriko's tough, she'll be able to take a loss like this on the chin, no problem. Nanami carries Kiriko up the steps, setting her down next to you before being approached by Ryoji, Ken and Rini who come to congratulate her. Ken, Nanami's boyfriend, is actually cut off at the pass by Rini who is the first to greet Nanami with a celebratory chest grope.

"Two more match in the A Block..." Mayu points out.

"Yeah," you nod. "And next up is... Alice? Hey Alice, where are you?"

You look around the spectating area, but Alice isn't anywhere to be seen.

"Hey isn't that her?" Kuin asks, pointing down to the battleground. Yep, there's Alice, taking a nap in the sand.

"Was she sleeping there during Nanami and Kiriko's fight?" you ask.

"My aunt!" Chihiro exclaims in concern.

"My daughter!" Saki cries out with equal concern.

"Excuse me?" Chihiro raises an eyebrow.

"Oh..." Saki mutters. "Me and Ryoji kinda... adopted her."

Chihiro smiles brightly and clasps her hands together. "Oh, I do declare, that is just wonderful!"

Alice lets out a yawn stretching out on the ground before rising to her feet. "Hm? Is it over?"

"AND HER OPPONENT SHALL BE THE RUTHLESS CONCORDIA!"

From the other end of the arena steps out a small female demon with horns, carrying a pair of twin spears matching her in height.

"You're The Dreamer, correct!" Concordia yells, pointing a spear at Alice.

"Me?" Alice laughs. "No, I'm just Alice! Dreamer is my friend! Do you want to meet her?"

"No games, Dreamer!" Concordia yells. "I can sense your energy! Have at you!"

"Oh, if you say so..." Alice mumbles, scratching the back of her head. "But I sure could use a nap right now..."

Alice lets out a long yawn. "Oh boy... will this take long? I'm very sleepy, and you smell like night time."

"I don't know what that means," Concordia scowls. "But I feel like you're mocking me. I won't have it!"

Concordia angrily charges forward, as Alice casually points a finger at her, unleashing a massive barrage of energy beams which sends the demon flying back. Alice continues the barrage all while drifting in and out of a standing sleep, as Concordia remains trapped taking endless punishment.

Eventually, Concordia is able to raise her spears and begin twirling them, deflecting all the energy beams that come her way before leaping to safety. She breathes heavily, recovering from the powerful barrage. "I see..." Concordia mutters. "So this is the true power of an Archdemon..."

"No, just Alice!"

"AAAAAAGH!" Concordia cries out in rage, as she comes charging at Alice with her two spears at the ready.

Concordia thrusts her spears with incredible anger in her eyes towards Alice... who very simply leaps up onto the wood of the spears, using them to balance herself as she takes a casual hop onto Concordia's head.

"What was your name again?" Alice asks, scratching her forehead as her eyes drift upwards. "It was Comfy... no, Combey... Conkle..."

"My name is Concordia!" the demon cries defiantly. "And I wish to become as powerful as an Archdemon! And I would appreciate it if you stopped standing on my head!"

"Standing on..." Alice pauses. "Oh, I am! Sorry!"

Alice hops off Concordia's head and off to safety. Alice ponders for a moment, staring at Concordia. "Hey, you look very beat up? Did I do that?"

"All my life..." Concordia cries. "I have lived for this moment... and I won't let you take it away from me! I will not be humiliated! I am a warrior!"

"Oh no... you look mad," Alice pouts. "What was I told to do when someone's mad? Hmm... I'm supposed to do something... uhh..."

"Stop ignoring me!" Concordia screams.

"Shh, I'm trying to think!" Alice smiles. "It's very hard! Give me a minute!"

Alice is making a complete joke out of her opponent... and you heavily doubt she even means to.

Alice makes her way over to Concordia, who hold her spears up high. "Stay back, Dreamer. I... I swear I will defeat you!"

As Alice comes closer and closer, however, Concordia lowers her spears, standing in absolute bewilderment and fear, seeing this Archdemon step so casually towards her... and wrap her arms around her.

"What?!" Sae yells out.

"Alice..." you mutter quietly. "That's not how you're supposed to do this..."

"W-what is this?!" Concordia yells in a panic. "I... I demand to know!"

"When people are mad, you're supposed to hug them!" Alice points out. "It helps them calm down! It also works for people who are sad! Isn't that interesting?"

"I don't understand..." Concordia mutters. "I... all I ever wanted was to prove myself against an Archdemon... to become a general in The Conqueror's army, but... you, you're far more powerful than..."

Concordia, her face a mix of surprise and pure terror, drops to her knees, and also drops her weapons at her side. "I... can't beat you. I... I'm not ready yet..."

"Aw, don't say that!" Alice smiles. "You'll be ready in no time!"

"THE WINNER, BY... FORFEIT? THE DREAMER!"

Alice looks up. "Actually, it's just Alice! Hmm... oh well! I'm going to nap now!"

Alice leaves Concordia, who drops onto her hands and knees and gives a pained scream into the air with a traumatised look on her face.

Alice skips up into the spectator area, where she greets her friends. "Hi mom! Hi dad! Hi niece!" she exclaims, before lying down across the laps of three unsuspecting members of Class 2 and falling asleep."

"Wow..." Chuichi mutters.

"I know, right?" Chuichi chuckles. "Yikes..."

"Final battle in Block A," Mayu points out.

"Ah, perfect!" Chihiro smiles, as she gently removes herself from beneath Alice. "That means it's moi time to shine!"

"Be careful," Makoto warns her. "Castor... that's the demon that did this to me. I wouldn't take it for granted if I were you."

"Of course not," Chihiro smiles. "And I promise I'll get revenge for it hurting my dear darling Makoto! Now, do I get a good luck kiss?"

"No," Makoto sighs. "But good luck."

Chihiro hops down the steps and onto the battlefield, where she is soon joined by the strange Castor, a demon with horns on it's head... a head concealed by what appears to be a basket, all the while carrying a flute.

"You get him, Chihiro!" Nariko cries out in support. "You can do it!"

"Yes..." Sayeka smiles. "I have faith in you, Chihiro."

"You there!" Chihiro points at Castor. "You hurt my darling Makoto! Whatever do you have to say for yourself, you brute?"

Castor remains silent.

"Very well!" Chihiro mutters, as she draws her daggers. "I see we'll have to settle this through an exchange of blows!"

Chihiro spins her two daggers, ready to kick into action. She sprints towards Castor and leaps up into the air. Suspiciously, Castor doesn't budge an inch or even react as Chihiro kicks the flute from his hand and begins to slice it apart in mid-air.

Chihiro lands on her feet as the flute lies falls to the ground in pieces. "Oh, whatever will you do without your powerful weapon?" Chihiro asks with a wink.

Castor continues not to react, as he slowly holds out his hand. Before him, he summons a second instrument, a large one than before.

"Well, that explains why he was so calm about it..." You mutter. "Dammit, Chihiro might be in trouble..."

Sayeka shakes her head. "Please, no..."

Castor presses the head of the instrument under his basket and begins to play. The music emits solid waves of music, just as it did in the fight against Makoto. The waves of music are sharp and do a lot of damage... and they're coming right at Chihiro.

The waves of music fly through the air, aimed directly at Chihiro. Thankfully, Chihiro is prepared, knowing about the sound waves beforehand giving her a distinct advantage. She speeds back and forth, avoiding each and every one of them, even deflecting a couple of them with her daggers.

Chihiro lands on her feet and lets out a deep breath. "Oh, that was devilishly sneaky of you! But still not enough!"

She's confident, but she still needs to watch out. That Castor seems to have many tricks up his sleeve.

"Chihiro!" Sayeka calls out. "Don't take him for granted. You have to be serious."

"Oh, my dear Sayeka!" Chihiro smiles. "I promise."

Sayeka lets out a sigh, before stopping her little hedgehog from wandering off of her shoulder.

Chihiro grasps her knives tight, staring down Castor.

Chihiro speeds through the arena, moving back and forth in order to confuse Castor before making her way behind the demon, readying her daggers and driving them forward in order to stab Castor in the back... only for her daggers to be blocked, as Castor pulls out his own dagger, hold Chihiro at bay with a single hand, before backhanding her with the other.

Chihiro goes flying across the arena, rolling along the sandy ground before eventually rising to her feet, more worse for wear.

"Chihiro..." Sayeka mutters in fear.

"Chihiro!" Saki cries. "Are you okay?"

"Of course!" Chihiro groans in pain. "Never... better..."

"Chihiro, look out!" Saki cries again. Chihiro turns her head to notice another blast of the musical energy hurtling towards her.

The blast of energy flies through the air at Chihiro, causing a massive explosion where Chihiro was standing.

"Chihiro, no!" Sayeka cries out.

"No..." Makoto bites his lip. "Please..."

As the dust settles, you're thankful to see that Chihiro isn't in the crater of the blast... but wait, then where is she?

You look up to see Chihiro coming down hard on Castor from above, hitting him with a backflip kick to the basketed face, landing on her feet in the process. "You'll require a lot more than that to hurt such a spectacular woman such as myself!"

Everyone breathes a collective sigh of relief as Chihiro rushes back into action, managing to get a few slices into the body of Castor. Chihiro pauses for a moment to clutch her own wounds, as she stares down the demon. It's looking grim, but if she can keep up the momentum and properly hit it, she just might be able to win this.

Chihiro launches herself towards Castor, who swings his arm towards her. Chihiro ducks under, and proceeds to hit the body of Castor with a unending barrage of slashes, before speeding to a safe distance. She smirks as Castor's body begins to shoot out black blood.

"Ohoho!" Chihiro laughs. "We're looking a little more similar now, aren't we?"

"Yeah!" Nanami yells. "You show him, Chihiro!"

Castor staggers around, leaking blood as he tries to focus. Castor blows into his instrument one more time. The energy from the playing surrounds Castor in some kind of bubble which rises high into the air. It floats in the air for a brief moment before spinning down crashing at Chihiro.

"What the hell?" Akio mutters. "That move is like my Deep Impact... meaning Chihiro's in serious trouble if it hits."

"But if it misses..." Hikaru adds, "Chihiro will have this fight won."

The huge bubble comes crashing down at an alarming rate towards Chihiro, who tries hard to gather herself in time.
