It was already a couple of weeks after I got my rank. Since I was a dragon and it is immeasurable, I got the first rank. It was bothering me since I knew I was far stronger than that

This was the reason why I went to Sullivan on my free day. It clearly was a big advantage having Sullivan as my grandpa. Since it was already late, I went to his working chamber since I was living in a caste low.

It didn't even need one knock until the door was opened for me by Opera.

Opera: How can I help you, young Master?

Me: I wanted to talk with grandpa for a bit.

Sullivan: Let him in Opera.

Opera: Very well Sir.

Just like that he began walking me over to the couch and went to get some treats and tea for us.

Sullivan: Due to what circumstances do I owe this pleasure? Is someone bullying you or are they perhaps mocking you? Just give me the names of it. Or Maybe, is Kalego-sensei mean to you?

Me: Ahm no. I was just wondering and have a question.

Sullivan: Oh!

Me: I would like to raise my rank since I only pulled a ring out.

Sullivan: But it is not any ring.

Me: Hm?

Sullivan: It is Solomon's ring. The ring is said to have mystical ability that no demon can understand.

Me: Really? I don't sense any magic or power coming from it.

Sullivan: Those are only rumors so I do not know how much is right.

Me: Huh...

Sullivan: Now what is your question again?

Me: I want to raise my rank since I am only on an Aleph.

Sullivan: I can see why this is bothering you.

Me: Is there any way to do it?

Sullivan: Of course there is. Did you ever heard about Cannon-ball Execution?

Me: No.

Sullivan: In ancient time after our ancestors left their homeland, the demons quickly began fighting over their territory. A killing Tournament was made in order to find out who was the strongest and who could watch over the territory better. The weapon used is called a "Cayman". If you are caught in its jaws even once, it won't let go until it's devoured its prey.

Me: So they used an animal as help?

Sullivan: Oh no. It was a chain with a head and the head has very sharp teeth.

Me: ....

Sullivan: Sounds scary doesn't it.

Me: Did you ever like faced one of them.

Sullivan: They are no longer used, so luckily no.

Me: *Relieved exhale*

Sullivan: As you can imagine there are a lot of causalities by using it.

Me: Yep.

Sullivan: This is why we use a simple ball and have a match in one of the school underground dungeon.

Me: Say what now?

Sullivan: Ah but don't be scared it is just a normal ball and you will work in teams in order to defeat the enemy. The concept is quite simple. You have a ball and throw it at your opponent trying to hit them. If the ball gets coughed they will return it. However if you don't manage to catch it, you will be out of the small tournament.

Me: So like dodge ball!

Sullivan: I do not know what that is.

Me: Well it's a game that is played in school where you have a ball and try to hit the other team. The team that took every single member of the other team out is the winner.

Sullivan: It has the same concept but I assure you it will be nothing but easy.

Me: How come?

Sullivan: Everything is allowed.

Me: And?

Sullivan: You are playing with Demons and not Humans, Iruma.

Me: Oh you mean they will be using their abilities?

Sullivan: They will indeed.

Me: Soo I should also use mine?

Sullivan: Please don't. If you go full out on them, I doubt they will survive this game. I would rather not have any causalities.

Me: Then how about I only use the strength and speed of my royal bloodline. It is an ability passed down to me after all.

Sullivan: I will accept that but please hold back with the strength part.

Me: No killing I understand.

Sullivan: I am quite curious, would you mind showing me your ability?

Me: Sure but how?

Sullivan: Let's go in our garden for a bit. Opera get a ball for us.

Opera: Very Well Sir.

Just like that we went outside and waited for Opera to come back. Once he was back, he gave me the ball and told me to go to the opposite end of the garden.

Sullivan: Now show me the strength and speed you plan on using.

Me: Kay!

The ball immediately began flying at high speed at Sullivan, the moment I threw it and let it go. Lucky for everyone I didn't target Sullivan at all but the space between his shoulder and head. Thanks to that, it just went passed him. The poor guy couldn't even react to it.

Sullivan: ....

Once I saw both Opera and Sullivan frozen in place, I came running to them.

Me: Are you guys okay? Did I throw it to hard? I was holding back though.

Sullivan: N-No. It didn't hit us but do tell me Iruma. You said you were holding back, correct?

Me: Yeah. Why?

Sullivan: My child, you need to lower it even more.

Me: Huh...

Sullivan: As you can see neither I nor Opera were able to see or even react to it. With that you would not kill anyone but pulverize them and people might get suspicious.

Me: Oh I see.

Opera: Young Master, do you mind if I train with you?

Me: Ohh that would be great!

Sullivan: Great than that's decided!

Just like that I spend the rest of the day until the tournament getting the hang of Opera and it's percentages. Needless to say that I was able to dodge and catch every ball Opera send to me with full power.
