Volume 3 Chapter 116 - Gremory VS Phenex Rating Game Part 6 (Koneko's Rampage)
"W-What is that!?" Tsubaki stood up from her chair and exclaimed to Sona.
"… I don't know. We could ask Kisuke if he's here. But he already knew that this would happen and escaped." Sona reclined on her chair and sighed, "He said he's going to get Yoruichi-san to stop Koneko. It looks like she's already unconscious because she's already giving me a very dreadful feeling despite her otherworldly appearance."
Tsubaki also sat back down and stared at the screen, "How is Yoruichi-san going to stop her though? The restrictions on the space of around an ongoing game are very strong that only administrators and those approved by them could get in."
"Who knows, maybe Yoruichi-san has a way to do it remotely. But that's not my concern… These higher-ups may deem Koneko dangerous and kill her outright. Moreover, her sister has a similar history of rampaging, it'll surely affect their judgment… Tsubaki, contact the Sitri House and ask them to petition to stop the game before everything gets worse. Meanwhile, I'll contact Grayfia-san to withhold the game."
"Yes, Kaichou!"

"Sirzechs, This isn't good. Riser and Ravel can survive, but Rias and Riser's Queen will die if that little girl rampages in her current state. I don't know how strong she is currently but just looking at her right now, I feel threatened. Stop the game now, before an irreversible accident happens." Zeoticus narrowed his eyes. He didn't like Koneko's current demeanor as it is too cold and unfeeling. She might turn her claws to her master like her sister did in the past.
Sirzechs is the only one who knew what really happened to Koneko's older sister and he just helped her out of pity and Koneko being a good addition to Rias' Peerage. He didn't reveal anything about this though and just followed his father's command because he too knew that it's already getting out of hand, "I already sent a petition to stop the game, but it'll take some time for it to be approved unless multiple parties made the same request."
Just in time, two small magic circles appeared in front of Sirzechs and a hologram of a figure appeared in each circle.
The first one is the familiar maid, Grayfia and the other is one of his fellow Devil King, Serafall Leviathan. Serafall is a beautiful girl looking in her late teens with black hair, tied into twin tails and blue eyes. She also has a child-like body, albeit with large breasts.
Like Sirzechs, Serafall is a former member of a high-ranking House, Sitri House. And the older sister of Sona Sitri.
"Sirzechs-chan! Good day! So-tan requested the Sitri House to send a petition to stop the game and I noticed that you along with Gremory and Phenex Houses also wanted to stop the game. What's happening?" Serafall asks with a confused expression, but her bubbly personality is very apparent.
"I'll explain the whole story later. For now, watch this live feed. Grayfia, why did you contact me?" Sirzechs did some gestures with his hand and sent a live feed directly to Serafall and he then faced Grayfia.
"Sona Sitri-sama directly sent me a message to hold the game. The administrators are still busy with something and can't answer for now. What should I do?"
"So-tan? It looks like she's very concerned with this white cat. Who is she? A new member of Rias' Peerage? Pretty strong for her current level."
"That's Rias' Rook, Koneko Toujou. We don't know what happened for her to become like that but that's not important right now. Grayfia, get ready to pull all of them out there--" "Onii-sama!!!" "Riser-sama!!!" Before he could finish his words, however, they heard Ravel's and Yubelluna's distressed shouts and saw that Riser is bounded by rings of white flames, "Grayfia! Get all of them out there now!" Sirzechs also shouted seeing what's happening.
"I'm on it… This is bad! Sirzechs-sama! Those rings of flames are somehow devouring the teleportation magic before they can activate!" Grayfia flusteredly reported.

"…What is she…?" Ravel muttered while gazing at Koneko's current form.
"Rias… What's up with your servant? Although she's very beautiful, I'm having goosebumps just from the dreadful aura coming from her." Riser increased his vigilance and thought, 'What are the higher-ups thinking about after seeing this? Is the game still ongoing? If so, defeating that thing would be very hard.'
"… I also don't know… Damn you Urahara Kisuke! What did you do to Koneko!?" Rias gritted her teeth because she noticed that Koneko is just staring blankly on the air and even her, as her master, is feeling threatened which is almost impossible if the servant is still loyal.
Riser wanted to say more but he saw Koneko suddenly move and raised her head and looked straight at him with a blank expression. Staring at those captivating unfocused eyes, he suddenly felt terrified and he instinctively crosses his arm in front of him. Thanks to that, he was able to block Koneko's right hand when she suddenly appeared in front of him and reached out her hand clad in white flames.
With an hammer-like impact, Riser is once again fell and adding a crater to the numerous ones on the ground. Blocking that attack, Riser's arms caught in white flames and he tried healing it. But to his shock, the white flames only kept growing and is now eating his shoulders. "What!!!" Understandably, Riser started panicking but before he could do something else, five rings of white flames appeared on his torso and four limbs binding him in place. He tried flying upwards but failed.
Without changing her posture, from Riser's previous spot, another ball of flame appeared in front of her extended hand and pointed it at Riser. Rias and the rest finally reacted and noticed that Riser can't heal nor escape. Ravel and Yubelluna resumed attacking Koneko with all they have. Rias is still hesitating but sent her own non-lethal magic towards Koneko. To their dismay, however, once their magic neared Koneko, it suddenly catches white flames and burned to nothingness before they could reach her.
Seeing it didn't work, Ravel and Yubelluna decided to help Riser instead as the ball of flame on Koneko's hand is growing bigger and bigger every second, like a charging bomb. The white flame started to have some blue tint in it which rose the very dangerous feeling it is giving off, "Onii-sama!!!" "Riser-sama!!!"
Although with Sirzechs command, they weren't even able to approach Riser and were teleported to the medical ward where everyone who is awake is also watching.
Rias rushed to Akeno who is already awake and shaking at Koneko's current form. Rias asks her, "Do you know what's happening?"
Akeno could only shake her head in dismay and internally blaming Kisuke for turning Koneko into something like that.
Off the side, Ravel is talking to her mother and asking her to help Riser who is struggling to escape.
Rias also contacted her brother and was told that they are doing something. Her marriage is not on her mind now.
