The devil capital of the underworld, "Absolute Evil".
In the deepest part of the capital city, where tens of thousands of elite devil soldiers are stationed, stands a magnificent, and domineering royal palace.
That is the residence of the Devil King "Absolute Evil", the only King of devils.
Although the king of 'Absolute Evil' has never shown his face to his people since the unification of the devils, this place is still a holy place in the eyes of the devils of the underworld and the place where the Devil King sits.
With a muffled sound, the door of the palace hall slowly opened, and the black-haired young man stepped in, surrounded by several people, and walked towards the deepest part on the bright red carpet under his feet.
On top of those steps stood a dark and domineering throne.
On it, there is engraved the original word pattern of "evil" which is regarded as the emblem of the race by all devils.
Thump, thump, thump.
The black-haired young man walked up the steps and sat on the throne that had been waiting for its owner for hundreds of years.
With his hands on the armrests, he supported his face, and his blood-red ruby eyes looked down.
Under the throne, four people were kneeling with their heads bowed.
The four of them are the devils of the underworld that everyone knows about.
Sirzechs Gremory, Ajuka Asutaroto, Serafall Sitri, and Grayfia Lucifuge.
"It's been a long time, Sirzechs."
Ryan eyes fell on the red-haired devil, greeted him first.
"It's been a long time since we last met, Absolute Evil-sama. Your return is what we have been waiting for."
Sirzechs lowered his head and responded respectfully.
"Haha, we've only met a few times, hundreds of years ago... You're so respectful to me."
Ryan teased with a playful expression.
"From that day on, I have pledged my lifelong loyalty to you."
He really hasn't changed at all, this guy...
Looking at that loyalty without any falsehood, Ryan felt that this guy was still so boring.
"By the way, I want to thank you for helping me take care of the underworld so well."
Although it may be boring, the huge effort made without sleep and food is still worthy of praise.
"I just did my best and contributed my little bit. the person who deserves the most thanks is not me, but Speaker Grayfia."
Sirzechs said humbly.
"I see..."
Ryan turned to the silver-haired girl and asked softly, "Grayfia, what reward do you want?"
"I said before, that being able to serve you is the greatest reward for me."
Grayfia did not take any credit for it, saying that she was content just being by the Devil King's side.
Really, where can I find such a well-educated and capable maid?
But the reward must be given when the time comes. Having made this decision, Ryan moved his gaze to the green-haired young man who was kneeling beside Sirzechs.
"Your name is Ajuka? Right"
"Yes, Absolute Evil-sama."
Ajuka lowered his head even lower, his tone equally respectful.
"How's the 'Devil's Pieces' going?"
Ryan asked with interest.
"In response to Absolute Evil-sama, after fixing many problems in details, the finished product has now been put into use by the whole people. As expected, it has added a lot of foreign dependents to our combat power... This is the finished product at this stage, please take a look."
After reporting this, Ajuka took out a brand new set of "Devil's Pieces" from his own subspace and handed them to Grayfia, who then presented them to Ryan on the throne.
Ryan picked up one of the chess pieces from the board and played with it in his hand, admiring it.
"No 'King' piece?"
Queen, Rook, Knight, Bishop, and Pawn. There are one Queen, two Rooks, two Knights, two Bishops, and eight Pawns, a total of fifteen pieces, but the most crucial piece is missing: the King.
"Regarding the king's pawn..."
Ajuka hesitated to speak, but still took out the missing chess piece from the subspace.
Ryan raised his hand, and with the power of magic, the chess piece floated up and flew in front of him.
"Oh? There seems to be something wrong with this chess piece."
With just one glance, Ryan noticed something unusual about the King chess piece.
The magical aura released from its interior is far stronger than that of the other fifteen chess pieces, and is filled with frenzy and ominousness.
"Yes."
Ajuka nodded softly, and then began to explain the abnormality of the King piece's.
"Unlike other chess pieces that can grant the reincarnated person the corresponding characteristics of their job, this chess piece can only simply enhance the user's ability. But it is not as simple as increasing the power from 1 to 2 or 3 times. Instead, it can at least increase the user's power by ten times, or even a hundred times."
For example, the Queen chess piece, which has all the characteristics of other chess pieces, can allow a person with good qualifications to directly upgrade from an ordinary person to the level of a mid-level devil. And the King chess piece can allow a person with excellent talents to directly obtain the strength of a superior devil or even a devil king.
Although he is only an weak devil king, he is definitely superior to those ordinary devils.
Upon learning this, Ajuka stopped the production of the King Piece on the spot. After all, if someone had evil intentions towards the "Absolute Evil" government because of the power they gained, that would go against the original intention.
Then, Ajuka immediately recovered the families that held the first batch of "Devil's Pieces".
Fortunately, the first batch of "Devil's Pieces" were just trial products, with only eight sets. Five of them were in their hands, and the remaining three were taken back not long after.
"I just came up with a concept at the beginning, but I didn't expect you to realize and produce it so quickly. I guess this is what is called 'genius'."
"your are too kind. Compared to you who have such a brain and the power to suppress everything, I still have a lot to learn."
These guys flattered me pretty loudly...
Ryan complained in his heart.
But at this moment, he suddenly thought of an interesting thing and wanted to try it.
Having made this decision, Ryan threw the king chess piece in his hand upwards.
The floating chess pieces collided with each other, making a pleasant and crisp sound of "ding! ding! ding!"
Then, a faint red light began to appear on the surface of the sixteen floating chess pieces, and several layers of magic arrays appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
On that magic circle, countless devilish words and numbers kept jumping at an astonishing speed.
Ryan looked at these words and numbers back and forth, and after completely imprinting them in his mind, he analyzed them through the ability of "Thousands of Magic", and then raised his right hand.
For a moment, a force so huge that it made the four most powerful devils present feel a tingling sensation in their backs surged from Ryan and was then injected into the chess piece.
"Ajuka... My king, what are he doing?"
Sirzechs suppressed his fear and whispered to his friend beside him.
"Analyzes, no, it should be said creates new that it is more perfect and sublimated on the basis."
Ajuka looked at the jumping and changing words on the layers of magic circles. In addition to surprise, his expression also showed great reverence and fanaticism.
"what!?"
Sirzechs and Serafall beside him were so shocked that they were speechless when they heard this.
You know, in order to prevent the "Devil's Pieces" from being deciphered and tampered with by criminals, Ajuka, as the developer, has set up many layers of security in it, and even used text that only he knew to encrypt it.
However, within a short period of time, all these security measures and encryptions were easily cracked and could even be directly changed?
This situation made them deeply understand the unfathomable depth of their Devil King's "Absolute Evil".
"That's about it."
Ryan retracted his strength, looked at the chess pieces in front of him that were emitting ominous black light, and nodded with satisfaction.
"Use this as a reward."
The chess piece representing the 'Queen' fell into his hand, and Ryan spoke gently to Grayfia.
"Grayfia, are you willing to be my 'Dependents'?"
Dependents and servants are two completely different things.
"I do!"
