DxD: A World Where T*tties Defy Gravity [ Chapter 114: WHAT A FIGHT! ] (Patreon)

"Hmm, one of you seems to be a Phenex." Akeno remarked, stepping forward and spreading her eight white Devil wings, as she gathered a ball of Holy Lightning in her hand. "Shall we fight, one-to-one?"

"I'd like nothing better, daughter of Baraqiel." Ayaka replied, spreading large, eagle-like wings of fire, and taking flight into the air, Akeno following soon after.

"Woah, did Akeno just say 'daughter of Baraqiel'?" Naud cried out. "The wielder of the famous 'Holy Lightning'? Since Rex is a Devil, that should make Akeno a Nephalem, or to be more precise, a Fallen Nephalem! I wonder how this'll turn out against Imogen's half-Phenex of a Bishop!"

Akeno quickly started out the fight by placing her hands together, and firing a large missile out of Holy Lightning straight at Ayaka. 

The missile homed in on Imogen's Bishop as she tried to fly away from it, but the missile made its mark, and caused a large explosion that left Ayaka slightly injured. It seemed she'd managed to defend against Akeno's attack.

"Not bad." Ayaka complimented her. "But I can do better!" Creating a magic-circle in front of her, Ayaka fired a large, fast-moving ball of fire at Akeno, who, giggling to herself, blocked it.

However, Akeno wasn't in any way prepared for how the ball of fire reacted when she blocked it.

She was forced to quickly fly up into the air, and avoid how the large ball of fire scattered into several smaller balls of fire, whch all flew at her faster than the original one had done.

Once she was sure she'd evaded the balls of fire, Akeno created an Asian Dragon, which was around fifteen metres in length, out of Holy Lightning, which opened its mouth and let out a blast of Holy Lightning, right at Ayaka, who tried to evade it, but her left arm got caught in the blast of lightning, blowing it right off her body.

After a few seconds, the arm regenerated, but it was still a few seconds longer than Riser Phenex had managed to regenerate his limbs the first time. Akeno noticed this, and grinned.

'Must be working.' the raven-haired Nephalem grinned, casting a shield to block Ayaka's bullets of fire. 'If I can get a powerful enough hit in on Ayaka, I should be able to completely negate her Flaming Regeneration. Then I can finish her off!'

Akeno fired a massive beam of lightning right at Ayaka, who, unlike before, was prepared for it, and was long-gone before Akeno's beam of lightning got anywhere near her. 

She returned with a huge blast of fire, which Akeno countered by creating an enormous shield, completely out of water, not lightning or normal Demonic or Holy energy. 

The water-shield managed to put out Ayaka's fire-ball, and the steam that resulted from such a thing happening was enough to conceal Akeno teleporting behind Ayaka, and firing another large beam of Holy Lightning right at her.

And this time, Ayaka couldn't block it. She was caught right in the middle of the beam of Lightning, and screamed in pain. Her fiery wings began to flicker and die, and Ayaka Phenex began to fall.

However, Akeno wasn't finished. Creating three large spears made from Holy Lightning, she fired the lot of them at Ayaka, who couldn't do anything to stop them impaling her through the chest, and ending her time in the game.

"WHAT A FIGHT!" Naud shouted. "Akeno managed to overpower Ayaka's regeneration with pure force, and Retire Imogen's sole Bishop that way! I won't be surprised if many people start going against Phenex Clan members with this tactic!"

Rias, Asia, Misteeta and Himari

Time left in the Rating Game: 50 minutes.

Rias cast a magic-circle shield to block the attempted strike of Himari Noihara, and pushed her away with difficulty, blasting her with her Power of Destruction to keep her away for a second. 

As Misteeta waved his staff, casting a large wave of fire, Rias blocked that attack as well, and attempted to return fire with her Power of Destruction.

Her attack only partly made its mark, as it impacted Misteeta's arm before he could teleport up into the air, leaving him with only one arm.

"Not so fast, Gremory Heiress!" Misteeta shouted, pointing his staff at Rias before she could fire at him again. 

As he did so, blue markings began to appear on Rias' body, which she knew about instantly when she tried to fire a blast of her Power of Destruction at Misteeta... and found that she couldn't.

"Wh-what?" was all she could cry before Misteeta yelled out "Now, Himari!", and Himari dashed towards Rias, and swung her sword, which, thanks to Himari being a Nekoshou, was empowered by Ki, at her before she had the chance to even blink, slicing a deep wound in her body, which hurt a LOT.

"Rias!" Asia shouted out, concerned, as she immediately activated Twilight Healing to try and heal her, but it was too late. Before Asia's Sacred Gear could take any effect, Rias was enveloped in a blue light, and was Retired.

"Well, damn!" Ruval remarked. "Even if Rias managed to overcome Riser in their recent Rating Game, she's still got some metaphorical holes in her. Holes which Misteeta and Himari were able to exploit, to great effect. Not to be mean, but Rex' blonde Pawn... doesn't seem like much in a combat situation."

Ruval's words were proven right as Himari, just as quickly as she had taken down Rias, took down Asia and Retired her with one swing of her sword. She didn't even need to infuse it with Ki to take her down.

Akeno

Time left in the Rating Game: 49 minutes.

"Ha... ha... ha..." Akeno panted. Pulling off so many powerful attacks in such quick succession against Ayaka had done a pretty damn big number on her stamina, and Rex' sole Bishop didn't think she could go through such an intense fight again.

As she looked down at Misteeta and Himari, Akeno's eyes widened when she realised that Rias and Asia had both been Retired by them, and neither Misteeta nor Himari seemed fatigued, like she was, in the slightest.

'Time,' Akeno thought, flapping her eight wings and leaving the scene. 'To make a strategic retreat.'
