Next Up: One Piece: Greed's Voyage - Sunday

~3rd Person~

About a few minutes later, Occult Research Club members and the church duo had left the old school building to walk over to the clearing next to the school to do as Rias had suggested and iron out their differences with a spar.

Now, in the middle of the clearing, Yuta stood in front of Xenovia and Irina with his hands in his pockets, holding a nonchalant expression. But from the perspective of everyone it was anything but nonchalant.

Mostly due to the aura he was emitting. While even the holy duo could feel the oppressive aura of a Demon Lord threatening them it was different for the ORC.

Kiba had wanted to volunteer to fight the two but held himself back, the aura of oppression released by Yuta, his fellow Peer who usually looked so laid back convinced him otherwise. So he decided to hang back for this one despite the loathsome swords they carried.

But the Aura had a rather different effecton the other members of the peerage. While Rias felt some discomfort from it at first when Yuta was angry, that had faded quite quickly and now she just felt in awe of him. Asia was similar in that case. But instead of awe she felt comforted by his aura, like a king promising to protect their subject.

Koneko and Akeno on the other hand...

From how Akeno was rubbing her thighs together not so subtly and how Koneko was biting her lip it was quite easy to assume what effect the aura had on them.

Rias stood in between both parties, serving as a judge and mediator as she addressed both about the terms of the "spar".

"Alright, when the handkerchief drops down to the ground the spar will start. It will end once either party surrenders or is incapacitated, no lethal attacks. As we have agreed upon, if Yuta wins Xenovia and Irina will apologize, if they win Yuta will apologize. Are these conditions acceptable?"

Irina and Xenovia exchanged some looks before giving Yuta a look. Irina decided to speak up with a curious expression.

"But umm, is this really fair? He is one devil while we both have pieces of the Excalibur? I'd feel pretty bad if we won like this."

All Yuta offered in retort was a simple shake of his head as he rolled his shoulders.

"Doesn't matter, even if there were ten or a hundred of you the result wouldn't change. I'd just have to try harder is all."

Xenovia glared at him, taking his challenge while Irina sighed.

"I am going to enjoy making you eat your words, devil."

"You are welcome to try. Just don't cry too much when you have to get on your knees."

Seeing both parties assent Rias nodded and gripped the handkerchief before throwing it into the air. As the piece of cloth drifted down both parties assumed fighting stances.

Current Abilities:

Epic - Chaos Entity Release

Elite - Shadow Storage

Uncommon - Set Trap

"Hyaa!"

The moment the handkerchief touched the ground the two exorcists jumped into action, Irina transforming Excalibur Mimic into a whip-like Katana that moved like a snake aiming towards Yuta while Xenovia unravelled Excalibur Destruction and charged at him straightforwardly.

Of course, while they were far beyond human in terms of ability, it wasn't exactly impressive in the eyes of Yuta who was not only boosted by Demon Lord but his Wind God's Ring. Still, being grazed by any of those swords would be completely debilitating.

"Take this!"

Irina jumped up and tried to slash at Yuta who deftly dodged the sword by dashing to the side with his superior agility and reflexes. But his eyes widened as he dodged a blow from Xenovia that struck the ground.

BOOOOOM!!!!

A giant crater like a ballistic missile had been dropped came into existence when the blade touched the floor and destroyed the ground they were standing on thanks to Excalibur Destruction's ability. Of course, it also had the effect of knocking Irina off her feet as she whined.

"Mou! Xenovia don't use that all willy nilly! Wait, where did he go?"

Irina looked around in surprise, trying to spot where Yuta vanished to just before Xenovia saw a figure appear behind Irina by phasing back into existence after Yuta had used Chaos Entity Release to slip into the Void Dimension.

"Irina-!"

"-Right behind you."

Yuta finished Xenovia's words for her as Irina turned her head just in time to see Yuta's hand land on her back. But unlike what she expected, that being pain from his attack, she just felt... cold?

"Eh? Ehhhhh!?!?"

Her leotard had completely vanished, leaving her completely bare against the wind save for her gloves and boots. She quickly went with her hands to cover her body up as her large boobs swayed freely with the cool wind making her nipples hard. She turned to Yuta with a humiliated expression.

"Y-you pervert!"

He raised an eyebrow at her.

"Yeah duh, I'm a devil. Did you expect otherwise?"

Irina blushed as Yuta walked past her, he used Set Trap combined with Shadow Storage to send her leotard to his shadow storage. He hadn't just done that because he was perverted. He wanted to humiliate them.

They were a bit too arrogant so he wanted to take the opportunity to really knock them down a peg. The sight of their naked bodies and their hindered fighting prowess was just a bonus.

"Get away from Irina!"

Xenovia charged at him with her sword of mass destruction raised but before she reached him, he dissolved into grey fog that vanished into the Void Dimension before appearing back behind her and...

Slap!

"Whah!?"

Yuta's hand slapped Xenovia's ass with a meaty slap that made her leotard vanish and sent her flying a good distance thanks to his strength comparable to a rook. Rolling on the ground for a moment Xenovia righted herself before giving Yuta a steeled look, not even bothering to cover herself up, letting her exposed large breasts just hang out as she scowled fiercely.

"Xenovia! Cover yourself up!"

Irina seemed to be the only person concerned about her nudity as Xenovia raised her sword again.

"You're going to pay for that!"

Yuta simply smirked.

"I highly doubt I will."

♢—•♧•—♤—•♡•—♤—•♧•—♢

~3rd Person~

Yuta, had, in fact, not paid for that.

The fact was apparent from the pair of exorcists tied around a tree with steel wire, both of their bodies completely naked and their asses red. Xenovia scowled like a dog while Irina cried tears of humiliation, their swords case aside as Yuta couldn't store them without severe injury.

To even further the humiliation, the only attacks he did were slapping their asses. Treating them like actual toddlers.

Yuta had not held back.

"Why did you have to rope me into this Xenovia..."

Rias had already declared their loss as Yuta stood over them with a satisfied expression, flicking a finger to undo the steel restraints as they were both released, Irina crouching and wrapping her arms around herself to cover as much of her body as possible while Xenovia just glared at him without making any attempt.

"So, where is our apology, miss Exorcists? Or do women of god go back on their words often?"

Xenovia gritted her teeth and closed her eyes while Irina looked with pleading eyes.

"Umm, could we please get our clothes back first? We can't afford to lose them, they are issued to us by the church." While they were given an allowance by the church, the last thing she wanted to do was to spend the money given to her for her mission on clothing.

Irina felt her dread grow Yuta tapped his chin in contemplation before he shrugged his shoulders.

"I'll give you your clothes after you apologize for your behaviour. Only if I think it's sincere enough, if not, I think I'll keep them with me as souvenirs."

Irina bit her lip and gave Xenovia a pleading look.

"Come on Xenovia, please, we have to get our clothes back."

Xenovia gritted her teeth before sighing.

"Fine, it is our loss." She hung her head before bowing her waist with her hands at her side with Irina also joining in, her face burning crimson as she did so. Both of their breasts hung down from gravity, making for a rather raunchy scene.

Click.

Which Yuta made sure to capture with his phone subtly as Koneko shook her head in exasperation from the sidelines.

"W-we apologize for our disrespectful attitudes. I hope that you can forgive us."

Although it killed Irina inside to apologize to a devil as a woman of god, she had a mission to accomplish and her duty was always more important than her dignity.

"Likewise, I apologize for my previous behaviour. Forgive me."

Xenovia sighed and said reluctantly, her irritation building, not only had they been sent on a suicide mission but now they had to bow their heads to devils just to get their clothes back.

Yuta crossed his arms, but before he could think about anything he felt a tug on his sleeve, seeing Asia give him an asking look.

"Yuta-san, I think that's enough. Please?"

He blinked at her once before nodding, he really didn't care enough and nor did he take so much offence that he would make them get on their hands and knees and beg for forgiveness.

"Alright, since Asia is so forgiving, I'll let you guys off the hook. Seems like the girl you both called a witch is the most merciful one here."

Yuta pulled the clothes out of his inventory and threw them towards Irina who caught them and nodded.

"R-right, thank you Asia-chan. We'll go now, it was a pleasure to meet you. I hope we won't cross paths again."

With that, Irina grabbed Xenovia's wrist and pulled her away as they ran to the forest. Not knowing that Yuta had already placed an Observer's Mark on both of them to keep an eye on them while he was in the void dimension.

"Well Yuta, that was certainly one way to deal with them. But was it so necessary to humiliate and antagonize them like that?"

Rias inquired while approaching Yuta before grabbing his arm and hugging it, Akeno had already left the clearing for the bathroom. Yuta wrapped his arm around her waist and responded.

"Yep, I showed them that we are the bosses here and that even if we are willing to ignore them, they have no power over us. So they can't just do as they please around our territory. And that they can't just disrespect us as they like."

He then grinned a little, seeming satisfied with himself.

"Besides, they can't complain to their superiors either unless they want to admit to their superiors that they got stripped and spanked by a devil without putting even a scratch on them."

Rias giggled and snuggled close to him.

"Wow, how devilish Yuta-kun. You've only been a devil for a month yet I feel like you are taking to this devil business better than us."

He shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly.

"Must be my natural aptitude. Or unnatural considering my abilities."

Speaking of his abilities, Yuta glanced at the notification that had just popped up.

Feat Achieved! Humiliate Xenovia Quarta and Irina Shidou

+1 Silver Ability Gacha Ticket

+1 Silver Item Gacha Ticket

What a blessing for defeating two exorcists.

A/N: The exorcists get humbled and tumbled hard. They stood no chance against Yuta even if they had swords that could one shot him. Yuta has gotten strong. At least by high-class standards. Not that that level of strength will be relevant when we meet Kokabiel and the scaling goes from Small Town Level to Country Level.

Anyways, the holy duo will have a harder time than in canon and will really need someone to help them out, because not only is an unpredictable Kokabiel out there after killing Freed, but because the church they used to stay in is absolutely demolished. This arc will go a lot differently. What did you guys think about the spar and humiliation by the way?
