Rating Game Field

"Rampage Ball is a variant of Rating Game where the objective of the game is to score points by shooting a golden ball the size of a basketball, through a glittering golden hoop that serves as the goal, within the time limit of two hours

"

"The Game Field will be vast, just like in the previous Rating Game, but there will be no obstacles in the Game Field to obstruct the view of the players. There will be some water replenishment stations scattered across the Game Field so that the players could keep themselves hydrated

"

"The number of points for each score a team gets will depend on the Evil Piece of the person or if the King scores. The number of points for the King and each piece scores is as follows…

" Grayfia announced and waved her hand towards one of the Magical Screens.

A small list appeared on all the Screens…

•King = 10 points

•Queen = 9 points

•Rook = 5 points

•Bishop = 3 points

•Knight = 3 points

•Pawn = 1 point

Grayfia gave the crowd a moment to digest all that information, after a few moments of continued silence, Grayfia finally decided to continue…

"Now there is a small twist, after a team scores, the goal will disappear and reappear in a random location within the Game Field. The goal may appear somewhere far away from the goal's previous location, so the teams would have to rush to score first

"

(A

/N: I will add one AU rule to make the Game more interesting. I never understood why they called this Game Rampage Ball Game, but there is no way to hurt other players and there are no rampaging balls).

"Retirement is also ineffective in the Game as players must remain on the Game Field as long as the timer is on. If any players are injured then they can only be healed after the timer runs out. The only way you can attack the opposing players ib by using the golden ball. Using any other forms of attacks would lead to straight-out disqualification

"

"If three members from your team are disqualified then, your team will be disqualified too, making the other the winners by default. The winner of the Rating Game will be decided by points. The team which scores the most points at the end when the timer runs out

" Grayfia finally finished her explanation. Now the spectators from the other Factions finally understood why the spectator stand of the Devil Faction didn't seem to be enthusiastic.

VIP Box

"I still don't understand why everyone still insists on treating this game as a variant of Rating Game. It should have been scrapped long ago

" Lord Sitri growled in anger.

Almost all the Devils hated the Rampage Game with passion, they simply couldn't understand why this game is still considered a Rating Game. Hela also wasn't happy… it has been only two months since she had taken over the Devils. There were a lot more important things to do rather than inspecting the variants of Rating Games.

"Well… Grayfia did say that it is completely fine to smack each other with those balls. I don't know… maybe they can still smack each other like in that Muggle game?

" Dora suggested with an unsure look on her face.

"Do you mean dodgeball?

" Nat inquired and Dora beamed at the crimson-haired woman with a grin on her face.

"Yep! That is what I was talking about

" Dora said with a grin.

"Fingers crossed

" Nemuri said while glancing towards Hela and Yachiru with a worried look on her face. She could feel that they were about to go into their extremely violent modes… she could sense their auras shifting, but they were obviously holding themselves back.

"You were on the Devil Council, weren't you? You could have petitioned to get it scrapped

" Reo said while staring in the direction of Lord Sitri.

"…We have tried, but some of the late Council Members refused our petition and after Lady Hela took over, the topic never came up

" Lord Sitri answered in a respectful tone.

"Don't worry, the Game is going going to be quite nice…

" All of a sudden Luna cooed with a dazed look on her face while patting something.

"Luna, is that a snake wrapped around your body?

" Jean asked in a dry tone. Luna beamed at the redhead.

"Why… of course, yes. What else would it be? This is Orochi, say hi to everyone

" Luna said while showing off her new pet to everyone. The snake hissed loudly while waving its tail.

"That is a basilisk, right?

" Fleur questioned lamely and once again Luna excitedly nodded her head.

"I wanted to get a partner for Attila. She is such a pure soul, but she is so lonely… So, I decided to hatch a partner for her. I am sure that she would be delighted… if she doesn't end up eating him

" Luna answered in a cheerful tone, receiving blank looks from all the residents of Knox while the others present inside the VIP box could only stare at her with confused looks on their faces.

"I see… Well, as long as you take care of Orochi, I don't see any problems

" Reo shrugged. Kunou found herself slightly scared and at the same time, she was entranced with the said creature. All of a sudden, Luna's gaze focused on the little girl sitting on Reo's lap.

"Do you want to keep him? I don't mind, but you have to take care of him

" Luna said and she appeared in front of Kunou, surprising the little blond kitsune. Yasaka immediately sprung up on her feet, wanting to protest, but Amaterasu grabbed her hand. Yasaka's head snapped towards Amaterasu who was shaking her head.

Yasaka wanted to ask why Amaterasu has stopped her, but Amaterasu was already answering.

"There is a Familiar bond forming in between your daughter and that snake… don't interrupt

" Amaterasu whispered with a serious look on her face. Yasaka finally calmed down, but she was still a bit uncomfortable as she had heard that it was a basilisk, but she didn't know what a basilisk was.

Since Amaterasu had whispered the words, nobody aside from Reo's group heard her words, but everyone present in the room kept watching the scene with baited breaths. The snake hesitantly placed his head on Kunou's palm, the little Kitsune was also nervous. Moments later, an excited and happy glint appeared in Orochi's eyes while Kunou also beamed with a bright smile on her face.

Orochi finally left Luna's body and wrapped himself around Kunou. Orochi hissed in content… and Kunou also smiled brightly as she continued to pat Orochi's head. Yasaka wanted to know more about this basilisk species, but after watching how happy her daughter was, she decided to postpone the questioning session…

Rating Game Field

"So, how are we going to do this? Diadora has 8 pawns, he is going to have an advantage over us by promoting them into Knights

" Tsubaki pointed out, Sona was waiting in the Game area, thinking through multiple scenarios. Sona simply agreed with Tsubaki's speculation with a nod of her head.

True, they were obviously stronger than Diodora and his Peerage, but Sona was at a disadvantage. One of her Knights was completely new, she haven't gotten used to her Speed and she would easily get tired in a matter of minutes if she pushed herself too hard and it was the same with the Grim Reapers.

They were strong and fast, but haven't gotten used to the Promotion ability, so they wouldn't be able to utilize the Speed of a Knight. Saji can obviously handle himself and Saji was stronger than all the Pawns of Diodora combined, but the Rampage Ball Game wasn't about strength, it was about Speed.

Sona only had two Peerage members who could utilize the Speed of Knights, Tomoe Meguri and Genshirou Saji, after he Promoted himself to Knight, but Diodora had 10 Peerage members who could utilize the power of Knights. Two experienced Knights and 8 experienced Pawns.

"…There is one thing we could do… I hate being a brute, but we beat them into the ground using the Golden Ball

" Sona finally reached a decision. Everyone aside from the former Grim Reapers and Murayama nodded their heads in understanding.

"There are obviously a few loopholes in the rules, we will exploit them. We can't use anything besides the Golden Ball to attack them, but we simply charge it with raw Devil Energy and bob's your uncle

" Sona explained her plan with a grin on her face. Sona's Peerage members aside from the new additions grinned viciously.

"And the rules don't say anything about summoning the Golden Ball using Magic, and there is no rule about defending yourself using Magic…

" Sona added and everyone could already see their victory. The new additions of her Peerage found themselves a little bit uncomfortable though… This was the first time, Sona and the others have revealed their vicious side in front of them.

"They wouldn't know what hit them!!

" Tsubasa gushed out excitedly while rubbing her hands together in excitement.

With the plan prepared, they only needed to wait for the Game to start. They spent the rest of their waiting time talking about mundane stuff. Sona wasn't arrogant or anything, but she was simply confident in her own power.

It was finally time.

"It is time… Let's start the Game!!

" Grayfia announced and moments later, Sona and her Peerage found themselves standing in the middle of a barren wasteland and it was the same with Diodora and his Peerage too, but they were nowhere near Sona and her Peerage.

"Let's hunt some Devils!

" Sona declared with a grin and the older members of her Peerage cheered loudly…
