Hai guys, long time no see huh ... i know that some are you are pretty pissed at me (some reviews and PM's) for false assurances about my uploading of chapters. I don't want to deny the fact and i thought i could do it but i had so much work in my project that i had barely any time even on weekends. But now i am some what free and hence i utilized that to give you this chapter. I apologize for the delay and also my beta reader has exams and i don't want to disturb him so this chapter may contain some mistakes but please go easy on me ...

"I can't ... give up now " Akeno summoned all of her remaining strength and got up. Unfortunately, her body doesn't keep up with her will power.

"Ha Ha Ha ... it doesn't matter how many times you got up, i will still beat and humiliate you to the extent where you guys will lose all hope and be my slave forever " Riser said in an evil tone.

Rias lied on the ground motionless. The images of Riser's atrocities against her peerage dominated her mind completely. Suddenly, the atmosphere began to tense around her as she began to envelop in her power of destruction.

Riser sweated as the ground beneath him began to vibrate . "what is happening to her ... " he backed away from rias a little and fired a huge spiral fire ball at her.

The fireball upon contacting with rias dispersed immediately. Riser was shocked beyond limit and so was akeno.

"Rias, don't do it. You will destroy yourself if you continue to apply power of destruction on your body " Akeno blurted out but her words fell on deaf ears.

That moment, a strong gust of wind blown and as the smoke began to clear, a shadow of a familiar figure came into picture.

Unaware of her, tears fell down from her cheeks . It was due to the sudden appearance of a teen with spiky hair which even defied the gravity. "Gohan ! " Akeno cried out.

Gohan vanished and appeared before akeno in fraction of a millisecond. "Akeno, i am ... " words didn't come out from his mouth as he was both angry and deeply saddened by the events that was unfolding before him.

"Gohan i am glad you are here. i am really glad ..." Akeno cried while resting on gohan's cheat "but you really need to stop rias as soon as possible or else she will destroy her body " .

Gohan swiftly regained his composure and took off his vest then gave it to akeno. By this only, Akeno realized that she was some what nude and grabbed his vest in embarrassment.

Akeno felt the warmth of gohan's vest upon wearing and hugged her own body "Thank you gohan for saving me " she said in a cute tone to which gohan smiled.

Gohan then appeared before rias and tried to touch her. "What is this destructive energy" his hand was burned barely by this as he stepped back a little.

"Gohan, that's gremory family's power of destruction. It will disintegrate anything it touches and the only way to counter it is with touki which is basically one's inner (spiritual) energy " Akeno warned gohan.

"Ki huh , I see ... then that's easy " gohan covered his whole body with his immense ki and touched rias shoulder. "Rias , Rias snap out of it , i am here for you and things are going to be alright " Gohan shook her a little.

Seeing that has no effect on her, he hugged her tightly . Rias while in berserk mode felt the warmth of the man who mean so much to her more than her own life.

"Gohan ! ! !" she finally snapped out of it and the aura encompassing her had vanished. He carried Rias like a princess (well, she is a princess ) and went over to akeno.

He told that everyone knew riser's deception and i have Maou's authorization to fight riser. Everyone present there couldn't fathom what they are hearing.

"It's true " came the voice of the Maou whom arrived there . "Since it's not a fair fight, I am bending the rules a little " he gave Riser a sharp look "Is it ok with you Riser ? "

Riser clearly tensed "how can i disagree with the maou himself but as you can see, i am already tired from all the fighting earlier so if you allow me to rest , i will definitely meet your demands "

"That's only fair, Alright the fight will take place after some 30 minutes so until then rest well " Sirzech's summoned one of his servant and asked him to heal all the Gremory people present there.

Riser is also assisted by his peerage who heals him at a tremendous rate, in addition to his family's healing powers.

"Onee-sama, i am sorry for being so weak. i i brought great dishonor to our family " said a grief struck rias.

"Ha ha , you were cute when gohan carried you but look at you now, all sullen ... Rias " which caught her attention " know that you did your best and you really made me proud by fighting until the end even though you know that victory will be almost impossible " Sirzech patted his sister

" Umm, Rias it's like your brother said. You are one of the most fearless girl i had ever seen in my life " gohan consoled her . "But no one can beat my mom and my aunt bulma when it comes to sheer recklessness and boldness " he thought to himself as he became a little saddened by the fact that he can't see them anymore

Rias grasped the concept somehow (well, akeno too ) after looking at gohan "Thanks gohan, that meant a lot to me " as she sealed his lips with hers.

Everyone excluding Gremory group widened their eyes by the make out scene happening before them. Riser was pissed off beyond limit by this as he gritted his teeth .

Akeno after waiting for the couple to break their kiss finally spoke "Gohan, i know you are so strong but riser has insane regenerative abilities so finish this as quickly as possible else " Akeno worried.

Rias also stricken with worry after hearing akeno's warning but sirzech interrupted

"Rias , regarding that , when Gohan found out that your team was cheated, he rushed in to help you guys out but i impeded and tried to stop him ...well, can you guess what happened ..." Every one shifted their gaze on gohan

and the Maou continued "Seems he is powerful enough to defeat riser from what i can see and his speed was beyond what i could comprehend even though i wasn't serious "

This brought havoc among every one present there. Rias exclaimed in awe "Gohan ! is that true ? " she locked his face with her hands

Unable to withstand the glares "well ... he i mean the Maou tried to stop me so i had no choice but as you can see, your brother didn't use his full strength so it's not a big deal and stop looking at me like that " said a disturbed gohan

"Gohan , do you know what are you saying ? No body has seen the Maou at his full power, rather than that, this is no ordinary feet and even if you can fight on par with the Maou at his full power, you will be among the Top 10 Strongest beings in the universe ... " Akeno explained

"ok ok i got it " gohan gave up and wondered " i know the Maou didn't use his full power but i know the full extent of his power. Even though he is too powerful, i can best him but i can sense some beings who are extra ordinary powerful . It is them who worries me since i can't say for sure that i can beat them if i went one on one . If it's come to that, guess i have no choice but to use ..."

His thoughts were interrupted by Rias "Demon world to Gohan , Hellooooooooo " she waved her hands in front of his face in an effort to make him come back to reality.

"uh Rias, whats up ? ha haha ha " Gohan realized his mistake and showed the infamous son grin as an apology.

"It's almost time's up. Are you ready for the battle ? " Rias inquired with worry

"I know ... and Maou-sama, even though it's irrelevant, can i ask you something ? " gohan asked which caught the group's attention

"yeah , ask me " Maou repied

"Well, you see ... it's that i have this ability called ki-sensing which allows me to sense other beings be it whatever as long as it has energy, and i can sense some otherworldly ki from the west some 3000 miles from here and also that being resides in the highest altitude place on earth. Do you know who that is ? "

Sirzech was dumbstruck "I can't believe that the ability of yours will be able to sense that being even though he's thousands of miles from here , Well anyway, come here " he brought gohan away from others.

Rias was irritated that she was left out . She can see that her brother was explaining something and occasionally get's stunned by what gohan had told.

"Rias " Akeno caught rias attention "Shouldn't we be discussing about the strategy ? Instead, they are discussing about something" she asked

Rias can clearly see that akeno was worried by the careless behavior of gohan and the Maou . "Akeno, i understand your feelings if my brother believes in gohan, and also it seems that gohan was pretty confident , so i have to no choice but leave it to their own" rias told her thoughts even though she was as worried as akeno

After some minutes, the powerful duo of gohan and Maou returned to where Rias was impatiently waiting. Sirzech (Maou) can certainly see that his sister was irritated so he started the signalling of the battle without any ado

Gohan after getting the wishes from Akeno and Rias saw thte Maou walked towards him. As he reached gohan, he wispered something in his ears "Gohan, i know that you can beat him but thrash him , show him what true hell was for hurting my sister "

Gohan was astounded by this. Although he didn't saw Maou's face, he can apparently saw a glimpse of his "Oh dende, how frightening ... "

The Maou leaves after making a short eye contact with gohan which he obviously understood

"Are you ready to get killed ... wait, before that i will humiliate you so much that you will beg me to kill you " Riser declared his thought

"haha, i guess your imagination is the one which is powerful " Gohan mocked

"Enough you imbecile" riser summoned a huge fireball and directed it towards gohan.

Gohan pushed the fireball with his ki which exploded and vaporized an entire mountain. Gohan wondered "Did he get powerful from before ? " . Riser didn't give space for gohan as he launched himself and landed a blow on gohan, atleast that's what he thought.

Gohan blocked his fist and launched a small ki ball at riser's stomach as he hit the ground and caught in the explosion. After the smoke cleared, Riser came out , blood gushing from some parts of his body as he uses his power to heal the didn't give time as he appeared before riser and punched his stomach so hard that riser can feel gohan's fist upon his broken ribs, all this happened within a split second.

Before he can burst into the nearby rock due to the force of the punch, once again gohan appeared before him in a fraction of a milli second and delivered an upper cut while in air.

Riser can't comprehend what is happening and before he can use his energy to heal him, gohan delivered a double-handed axle to his stomach in mid air and Riser hit the ground with a boom forming a small crater.

"So much talk for a weakling such as you. can't you atleast give me a good warmup " Gohan ridiculed.

Riser can't hear what gohan had said as he was blemished by him. He got up despite the wounds he sustained "As i expected, you are too powerful for a human but don't think that's all i have "

Riser summoned some slimy creature and let it invade his body. Instantly, his powers exceed manifold and all his injuries and even his fatigues were gone.

Gohan just stood there unfazed by the power growing yet wondered how can riser get to increase his power so much . He concluded that it must have something to do with that snake like creature he summoned.

Gohan while in the midst of thought, was struck by riser with speed which greatly surpassed his previous one.

Eventhough his speed and strength increased, for gohan, he's still moving in a slow motion and before his fist can reach him, Gohan struck him with his elbow(Like how goku struck Raccoom of ginyu force)

Riser cried out in pain ,eventhough he's healing, he couldn't bear the pain of the blow. He fired a huge magic ball which is combination of magic and fire towards gohan in utter despair.

Rias and Akeno cried out from the VIP room hoping for gohan's safety

Gohan simply sighed and launched a ki ball from his hand. The ki ball collided with Riser's magic ball and exploded. The explosion was so huge that it enveloped the entire battlefield.

The spectators are awed by the fight that is ensuing before them. Among the many celebrities in VIP room, one can see the smile of a person who can be considered the strongest amidst them.

The smoke eventually cleared as the entire crowd searched for the warriors . There, they can see the man with gravity defying hairs floating in the air and not so much distance from him, they also saw an injured person gritting his teeth.

"Why why ... why won't you get hit by me ... even after i injected some of Dragon god powers, why i still can't match you " Riser growled.

"You still don't get it don't you, it's coz i am much more powerful than you think .All this time, i was just toying with you and if i want, i can finish you in an instant well, that's how weak you are " Gohan insulted

"Why you " but before riser could finish , Gohan delivered a round house kick after appearing before him in a split millisecond and before riser could cry in pain, gohan moved so fast behind him and stopped riser's burst with a blow to riser's neck with his elbow.

Riser was almost on the verge of unconsciousness and hoped that it will be over soon and get relieved by the thought but unfortunately for him, Gohan had no such plans. He stood there ,waiting for Riser to heal and recover.

As Riser healed to almost half of his original self, he delivered an upper cut to Riser and make him flew in the air. He then took off and meet Riser in midair, seeing his face in despair somehow wavered his motivation but as he remembered Riser's deed, he recomposed and delivered a serious of light blows to Riser all over his body.

Gohan's punches are so minute that he took on account of Riser's regenerative ability and put enough strength so as to not make him unconscious.

Riser cried out in extreme agony as he faced the wrath of gohan's punches. The whole fight from the beginning was an one sided one even after riser had some illegal power up.

"Please stop , i beg you, i can't bear it anymore ... i give up " Riser cried out in agony. Gohan stopped there as he thought that Riser had got what he deserved and he got riser and lay him down on the ground.

"Please stop don't hurt me anymore, i am sorry please " Riser still cried even though gohan stopped a minute ago. This only showed that riser lost his conscience and is blurting out subconsciously.

Gohan was frowned at the sight. He felt guilty for having lost control of himself. He remembered the last time he went on a rampage against cell and he lost his dearest person due to that. While in the midst of thoughts, he hears the voice of some one calling him. Unknowing to him, he felt really good and sped fast to that person.

"Gohan ,i am glad you are ok " Rias hugged him

"Rias, don't you think that's too much to say after seeing what happened" The Maou-sama teased "Well, I had to announce the winner anyway, So ..." (looking at Riser for a second)"Since Riser is unable to battle any further, the fight goes to gohan of Rias Gremory "

That last few words meant The Maou-sama finally accepted Gohan as part of Rias peerage eventhough he's not a devil. Words couldn't describe Rias happiness as she pecked on gohan's cheek but their happiness is short lived by the appearance of some magic circles.

From the magic circles, came some group of people and gohan know one of them it's kokabriel.

"Riser, Even though you got Dragon god-Sama's blessing and power, you still can't defeat a human " kokabriel yelled.

Riser slowly got up "Ha , says the man who got his ass handed out to him by the same human " Riser defended "Still, i can't believe a human will be this much powerful " to which kokabriel agreed.

"That's why i brought the Dragon-god sama with me and also since he will be tired from your fight, finishing him will be easy " Kokabriel exlpained

Suddenly, a small stature which looks like a girl came forward from the group. She laid her eyes on gohan "Are you the human called Gohan ? "

Gohan nodded to that. One can say that gohan was a little tensed at that moment. It was due to the fact that the powerful aura that the little girl is emitting. "Are you the Dragon-god that kokabriel talked about ? " Gohan asked

"I am and i have to destroy you since i confirmed that you will be a hurdle to my plan" She gathered huge amount of energy in one of her hand which has enough power to destroy the demon world and fired at Gohan
