Then Ddraig called out to me within my heart. [Partner.] “Hmm? What is it Ddraig?”
[That Maou, Lucifer. He negated the Dragon-shot you did. I did think that he has an irregular power for a devil. But for him to be this strong…… After that, he retreated with the other Maou’s during the explosion. Well. For you to be able to fight this much at this stage with that man means that you are improving well enough. If it was a few months ago, you would have been defeated instantly.] “!”
Seriously? I did put quite a lot of strength in it. I haven’t neglected my training after the battle against Loki either. I had quite a bit of confidence in the Dragon-shot I just shot earlier….. So it was impossible even after I powered up after poking Buchou’s breast. But I think I’m amazing myself for having fought that much. Ddraig also sounded in awe. The last time he talked like this was since Fenrir. Well, that was also recently as well. So Sirzechs-sama is amazing after all. “Both of you did very well.”
Sirzechs-sama’s voice. When I turned around, Sirzechs-sama is standing there. Grayfia-san in maid outfit is also besides him. “Onii-sama. Did you just arrive here now?”
“Yes. I thought it was about time that you finished the trials.”
…..Buchou. Seriously. Please realise it. Sirzech-sama is Red. Sirzechs-sama, just tell her the truth already! When Buchou and I got up, Sirzechs-sama put his hand on our shoulders. “You did very well. Both of you passed.”
Buchou and I looked at each other after hearing that and smiled. Yes! We ended up doing lots of trials, and it ended up having me fight against Sirzechs-sama. But looks like we passed it! “With this, both Master and Mistress will feel relieved.”
Grayfia-sama says that. Looks like she’s in a complete Maid-mode right now. “Ise-kun. I’m sorry for getting you involved in this all of a sudden.”
Sirzechs-sama apologies to me! “N-no! You don’t have to! It allowed me to touch Buchou’s breast, so it’s OK!”
That’s the truth. It was fun. Buchou’s breast was really amazing! “I feel better if you say it like that. I was also concerned with the future of both you and Rias. Thanks to that, I was able to catch a glimpse of a bright future. I will leave Rias to you, Ise-kun.”
“Yes!”
I don’t understand anything complicated, but I will protect Buchou for the rest of my life! She’s the woman I fell in love with! “Congratulation Rias-chan!”
Leviathan-sama who suddenly appeared jumped onto Buchou. Arara. When on Earth did she appear? “…..Ah. It finally finished.”
The one who said that along with a sigh is Asmodeus-sama. Good work for being a Judge for the trial. But please do your job as a Maou properly. When I was thinking about that, a person came towards me. It’s Ajuka Beelzebub. He’s having a serious look at me. More like he is looking at my Sacred Gear with a very interested look. “Can I have a look at the Evil-Piece inside you for a bit?”
Saying that, Beelzebub-sama poked his finger at my chest and creates many small magic-circles. The devil-letters and numbers written on the magic-circle are circulating really fast. “Hmm. Looks like you are trying to do something interesting. You are going to the depths of the Sacred Gear right? It’s only something possible because it's a Sacred Gear type with a soul sealed in it. The one who pointed out this possibility must be the Viceroy of fallen-angels, Azazel……..”
He’s smiling and he looks like he’s having fun. He can tell, just by looking at it for a bit!? I did hear that he was someone who is talented at technology, but for him to be this amazing! Sensei! This Maou saw through your hypothesis instantly! “…..The power of chess pieces. The trait is being used on something else and is changing a bit. This is an interesting phenomenon. Looks like it’s overwritten by a code that isn’t written in my program. From my personal view, it must be the influence of “Juggernaut Drive”…… But the overwritten code is messy. With this program, it would malfunction easily…… Yes. I will alter the evil-piece within you.”
….! I was shocked at the sudden offer. “Is it alright? Doing something like this. Won’t it be unfair in the Rating Game?”
“Of course I will make sure it won’t work during the Rating Game. But it’s better if you can use it in a real battle right? No. It also might be interesting if you can use it in the Rating Game. It might receive good response from viewers who like irregular causes. Well, since you are Sekiryuutei you would continue to fight enemy forces. It would be good to be in an environment where you can use the ideas of your ability. More than that, it would be interesting for those viewing it. Also I need to give you my gratitude for stopping my family member.”
….Family member. He’s talking about Diodora. Even if he was involved in the incident with Asia, I beat him to a pulp and he ended up being killed by one of the leaders of the Old-Maou Faction. Beelzebub-sama came from the house of Astaroth. “You don’t have to worry about that. The ones at fault are us. Instead I feel deeply sorry for troubling you.”
Saying that, he creates various magic-circles again and seems to continue tuning the evil-pieces within me. He sounds as if he isn’t that interested in that incident. Maybe the one who isn’t the most affected in that incident is this person. Then I spoke out what I thought. “Excuse me…… How many secret factors did you include in the evil-piece?”
“There’s no way I would tell you that. I made it so the users can find out by themselves.”
He replied to me like that. He is truly a person who is hard to read. He’s calling devils, “Users”. I can feel a certain type of characteristic fixation from his words. Sirzechs-sama then says it while having a bitter smile. “Ajuka is a rare person among devils who “create”. Thanks to that, the technology in the Underworld went up about 5 stages. But he doesn’t care about the role as a Maou.”
“It suits me by creating and having fun.”
Hmm, he certainly is a unique type of devil. Then Leviathan-sama whispers into my ears. “Sirzechs-chan and Ajuka-chan have always been both friends and rivals since a long time ago. They were both candidates for becoming “Lucifer”. But since Sirzechs-chan was more talented at gathering people, Sirzechs-chan became “Lucifer” while Ajuka-chan became “Beelzebub”.”
So there was a past like that…… A rival huh. Something similar to me and Vali? No, we haven’t opened ourselves like these two have…… He is basically my enemy. “Both of you work too much….. Lets take it more slowly…… I can’t follow your pace…… You will become a loser if you work……”
…..Asmodeus-sama is certainly a unique Maou-sama. Seriously work, please. “Yes. That should be it.”
Beelzebub-sama who seems like he finished tuning makes the magic-circle disappear. I start to touch my chest….. I don’t feel any changes in me……
“…..Did something change?”
“The one who is going to change it from now is you. What I did was just a start.
