Ruval Phenex had yet to be able to pick his jaw up off the floor.
After applying a Phenex Tear to Valerie and leaving her lying on the couch under Zissa's supervision to rest, he stared slack-jawed at the large viewing screen in front of him.
Ruval couldn't believe his little brother had somehow managed to summon Lancelot, greatest of the knights of the round table.
Not only was Lancelot currently in the arena, but he had agreed to fight on Riser's side. It was…beyond unbelievable.
"Ruval?" Zissa said as she stepped up beside him, her eyes locked on the monitor. "Is this…this is real, right?"
Ruval could do nothing but nod numbly, watching as Seekvaira's peerage arranged themselves in a line, The Red Dragon Emperor and a devil astride the Pegasus flanking a large, european dragon.
"How?" Ruval said breathlessly, not expecting an answer. "How did two teenagers gather such impressive peerages?
We've faced lords who were hundreds of years old that would resign in the face of either force.
They both have Longinus wielders for Satan's sake! It took us decades to find Xantha. How the fuck!"
"I don't know." Zissa said, falling silent as the bells tolled the start of the battle.
Ruval's eyes wandered to a second screen – this one showed the crowd watching in the stands.
There were a variety of reactions to the scene on the field. Some sat in shocked silence, unable to believe their eyes.
Some stared greedily downwards, likely already plotting how to take the young devils power for their own.
Others stood and screamed in approval, absolutely loving every second of what they were seeing.
Seekvaira's peerage flew towards the ravine positioned exactly halfway between the two King's headquarters.
Riser's peerage was seen moments later, Lancelot sprinting through the trees beneath them, easily keeping pace.
This would be a fight talked about for decades to come.

With Riser…
There was very little I could do from here. Even with my eyes glued to the console before me, the most I could do was organize everyone and let them know where the enemy was.
"The knight is heading straight for Lancelot. Intercept her and ask Lancelot to take Alivian when you do.
One of you may have to pull back to distract the Red Dragon Emperor." I said. The knight had probably seen Lancelot and recognized him.
I was willing to bet she wanted to test herself against him; letting her do so would screw up my plans.
"Understood, my king." I heard Yubelluna's voice speak in the ear Clarissa's charm was attached to.
I watched on the monitor as Yubelluna took the lead, directing Clarissa and Yubelluna ahead of Lancelot to block the night's path.
"Sir Lancelot!" Yubelluna called as she passed overhead. "Please fight the dragon!"
Lancelot's face lit up and he shouted something back, but without one of Clarissa's charms on his ear, I couldn't understand what he was saying.
Lancelot altered his path and sprinted towards Alivian with speed that rivaled what Serafall Leviathan had used to close the distance to me in her office.
Lancelot became a black-blue blur, quickly reaching the edge of the cliff only to leap off its edge, Arondight reared back as a surprised Alivian tried to roll away from the legendary figure.
Lancelot was too fast, spearing Arondight into the dragon's midsection as Alivian dipped below the cliff, spiraling towards the ground with Lancelot attached to him.
That was one major problem dealt with for the moment. Now we just had to deal with the other two.
"Yubelluna! Issei's coming up on your right!" I relayed, watching as the red-armored form fell into a dive towards them.
"Clarissa!" Yubelluna shouted. "You have the best chance of stalling him. Buy us time!" Without another word, Yubelluna rocketed towards the knight, Kalawarner right on her heels.
Clarissa offered no protest. She reached both hands into her robes and withdrew two items, a large, blue, bird carving and the coin she blackened earlier.
Rather than fly up to meet the Red Dragon Emperor in combat, doing so would be suicide, Clarissa channeled a massive spell circle through the carving.
With a crackling of magical energy, the carving expanded. It grew and grew until it was the size of a small car, flying out of her hand and soaring up to meet Issei.
"Boost!"
Issei's entire body flashed green as his power surged.
The moment the boost was announced, Clarissa flicked the coin into the air, firing another spell circle through it in a line to connect to Issei.
My mouth fell open in shock as the green power bolstering Issei's strength was sucked away. It funneled off of him and flowed downward, directly into Clarissa's coin.
The coin absorbed almost half of Issei's boost before exploding into shards, unable to handle the power. The rest of Issei's green energy dissipated into the air.
Clarissa had managed to divert one boost and keep Issei's attention on her construct. She was doing an admirable job of buying time against the Longinus wielder.
As Clarissa faced down Issei, Kalawarner and Yubelluna had launched an all out assault on the knight.
Explosions rocked the air around the mounted knight, forcing her into a column of relative safety.
The moment she was surrounded on all sides by the explosions, a tidal wave of bright, white spears descended towards her.
Rather than allow the light magic to debilitate her, the knight intentionally flew into one of Yubelluna's explosions to get away, nearly knocking her from her mount.
Yubelluna capitalized on the knight's decision, laying into her with dozens of explosive spells.
The first connected, slamming the knight down into Pegasus's back. Before any of the others could hit, black-feathered wings rose up to cocoon the rider, absorbing every explosion.
The knight lost a staggering amount of altitude as Pegasus defended her, but the horse unfurled its wings and recovered before the duo hit the ground.
The knight's eyes narrowed in frustration. She held the legendary sickle in her hand aloft, pointing it towards Yubelluna. "Go!"
