Thinking for a moment on what Sephiroth said, Sirzechs spoke up finally "I can only force you then Sephiroth, my position forces me to take you in. Personally I don't care that you killed Riser Phenex; he wasn't worthy of marrying my little sister Rias anyway. Having said that I still have responsibilities that I must carry out. I can only apologize for my actions toward you." Sirzechs then gestured for the others to get ready for the fight that was about to happen.

Sephiroth seeing that a fight was unavoidable at this point, decided to wake up Ddraig.

'Ddraig I'm going to need your help for a fight in a moment, so I"m need you to wake up' thought Sephiroth toward Ddraig who was currently still sleeping out of boredom, she had already recharged all of her mental energy from that past incident and knew she didn't need to be awake for the fight with Riser so she went to sleep.

"Hmm…. what's going on now? Did you say fight, who are we fighting this time that you actually needed to wake me up for?" She said then using her own senses that she shares with Sephiroth when she is awake she saw who they would be fighting and was mildly surprised on who the four were.

"How did we get into a situation where we are fighting one of the Satan of the underworld and his family? I've only been sleeping for a bit. How did I miss something like this, care to explain this to me, partner?" Ddraig asked

"I'll explain later just get ready. I might have to use that Juggernaut drive you told me about." Ddraig hearing this from her partner knew that it must be somewhat serious if he was going to have to resort to using that.

Having finished talking to Ddraig, Sephiroth brought his attention back to Sirzechs and his group that surrounded him. "Know this, some of you will die today, make peace with that and come at me" Sephiroth says while he summons his sword again and gets into his stance. He started releasing all of his magical power around him.

When the crowd felt the full power of Sephiroth's magical power they all felt one feeling fear and despair. The amount that he was releasing was at the level of a super devil, the group recognized this level of power because Sirzechs is at this level when he goes into his super devil form.

They were not as confident that they could take down Sephiroth now if he was already this strong, and he hadn't even used his boosted gear that they knew that he had. They couldn't imagine what level of power that he could reach if he was to start using it during this fight. They knew that they had to take him down quickly before he decided to use it, little did they know that the only reason Sephiroth didn't start using his boosted gear was because he wanted to give himself a challenge. If only they knew how Sephiroth thought of the four against him in a fight.

Knowing that they had to make the first move,

"Rias, you and your friends need to take cover otherwise you may die in the crossfire between us" Rias and her peerage nodded their heads to this and hide back somewhere in the arena far enough away that they wouldn't get hit but still close enough so that they can see the fight happening.

Seeing this, Sirzechs was somewhat relieved that his little sister won't get hurt in this fight now. Sirzechs and Venelana then charged up a massive ball of destructive energy each. While Grayfia made a massive icicle overheard and Zeoticus had his own massive fireball ready to send.

Sephiroth seeing this knew that he couldn't let them send these spells at him unchallenged so he sent out two send beams out quickly toward the two spells that Sirzechs and Venelana had ready to send his way. He didn't know how that unique structure of their magic power would react to his own spells so he decided he didn't want to find out.

He sent out those two attacks so fast that the two didn't have time to react and their spells were destroyed before they could launch them at Sephiroth effectively handling two of the four attacks aimed at him. This shocked the group because they couldn't react fast enough to stop it, they saw it happening but they couldn't do anything about it sadly. Showing them that Sephiroth is that much faster than them adds another worry to this fight.

After a moment of getting over what just happened Grayfia and Zeoticus sent out their own spells, Sephiroth flew forward toward Grayfia easily dodging the fireball sent at him and effortless cutting the massive icicle in half as he flew by the side of it.

Closing in onto Grayfia, Sephiroth charged his sword with magical power and did a downward slash on her. Intending to cut her in half in the middle, Grayfia was able to quickly form an ice wall in front of her that blocked the sword attack if only for a second but it gave her enough time to fly back to give herself some more space between the two.

It's then that the other three sent another wave of magical attacks at Sephiroth, seeing that he simply cast [Reflect] in front of himself which not only blocked the attacks but sent them right back to the attackers, though there were some cracks on the magic shield. Sephiroth figured that this was because of the power of destruction that the Bael clan is known for. This surprised the three that they were not able to get through the barrier that Sephiroth made but given their experience they quickly got over it and then cast another spell to cancel out the magic spell headed to them.

Deciding to humor the four for a moment Sephiroth spoke to them while getting back into his stance "Your magic power may be strong but ultimately it is useless against me, your all to weak to overcome my own magical power so your never get through my defenses" What they didn't know that there are other layers of defense for Sephiroth that he can use making it extremely hard to actually hurt him.

"I don't believe that we can't overcome your defenses, Sephiroth nothing can withstand my families power of destruction" Venelana said with complete confidence in her family's special power.

Sephiroth said nothing to this but instead he used [Fervent Blow] sending a burst of several energy projectiles that were fired from his Masamune toward Venelana and then he followed them with a dashing lunge toward her, making it so she would be to distracted with the sword beams to stop his real attack. Even if she were to ignore the sword beams to block Sephiroth's real attack she will most likely get some wounds on her body that will lower her combat ability so either way worked for him.

When Venelana saw what Sephiroth was doing she created a defensive wall of power of destruction and Zeoticus who was nearby further strengthened it by pouring his own magical power into it making it at least two times stronger. They both believe that this will be enough to stop the sword beams and should be enough to deter Sephiroth from charging straight at him.

They were able to stop the sword beams that were sent at Venelana, the only problem with this is that by doing this they lost vision of Sephiroth. Sephiroth using this chance used [Hell's Gate] A diving impale attack which is strong enough to cause shock-waves in mid-air. Using this attack he was able to send the portion of the magic wall in front of him straight toward Venelana so now she has shock-waves of her family's power coming at her all of a sudden. She didn't see this coming at all and knew she didn't have enough time to put up a proper defense, but she didn't have too, someone stepped in front of her to block the attack.

Zeoticus grabbed his wife and shielded her body with his own and turned his back to the attack to make sure that none of it hit his wife Venelana. Then the attack hit them both but most of the attack hit Zeoticus who soaked up most of the damage. He got some deep wounds on his back and lost the shirt covering it.

Seeing this, Sirzechs and Grayfia were angry seeing their parents/in-laws suffer some injuries, they used this to fuel their next spell making it that much stronger. Sirzechs and Grayfia conjured up dozens of small magic circles both red and blue to surround Sephiroth, making it look like he was in a bubble of red and blue magic circles. Each of the magic circles either had the tip of icicles or spears sticking out of them, showing that each of the magic circles were ready to launch their attacks at him from every angle.

Sirzechs looked at Grayfia and she gave a slight nod, confirming that she was ready and then they both unleashed their magic attack on Sephiroth. Now for a normal person this would be impossible to dodge because there wasn't a single opening that one could take advantage of but this is Sephiroth of course so he has an answer to this attack.

Using his superior speed, reaction time and his swordsmanship skills. Sephiroth started to dodge the attacks that were sent his way either by side stepping, bending over, leaning to the side, and swinging at them with his sword. From a distance it looked like he was performing a beautiful dance dodging all of those magic attacks coming at him and it was quite shocking to Grayfia and Sirzechs. The way in which he was handing the situation left them speechless, and they didn't know how he was able to dodge and block all of those attacks without even taking a single bit of damage. They could only pour more magic into the magical attack and hope that eventually Sephiroth will slip up and get hit in it, seeing who could last longer in this situation.

This went on for a bit because both Grayfia and Sirzechs have a ton of magical power in their bodies, but it only got worse at least for Sephiroth because Venelana joined in as well after she made sure Zeoticus was okay and she added more magic circles to the dome. Sephiroth was forced to summon another sword but this one was made out of light magic making it very effective against devil magic.

This went on for a while with all three of them channeling magic power in their own respectful circles but seeing that they were not getting anywhere but rapidly draining their own reserves they stopped, when they saw Sephiroth standing there he had actually had taken some damage but it was so minor that it didn't even matter given someone of his power level. He wasn't even breathing hard or sweating from doing all of that.

"Done already?" Sephiroth said with an indifferent expression on his face while looking at them, something that upset the trio who were looking at him.

Seeing that they were not going to say anything, he charged up his own magical power and unleashed a [Light Flare] which is a group of four massive light orbs which converge on an enemy's position that causes an explosion upon impact. He sent them to the trio in front of him and Zeoticus who was off to the side. Being that it was made of light magic it was that much more deadly to the devils and that much harder to counter for them as well putting them into a severe disadvantage since most of them were starting to get low on their magical reserves or were injured.

They each put up their own form of defense and tried to block the magical orb of light magic coming at them but it was incredibly hard given how much magic power was in them and not to mention that it was of the light element something that they are naturally weak against. They blocked as best as they could but in the end when the orbs made contact with their defensive measures the orbs exploded in a huge explosion engulfing them each. It caused a blinding light around the whole area making it impossible for anyone to see anything until the light faded away.

When Sephiroth saw the four now …...
