-King Piece Ceremony-
Tonight, a ceremony hosted every few months or so by the Maou's will commence, and today was one the day that the Maou's had decided to host that ceremony.
The venue was filled with both the parents and the young nobles that are about to be granted their very own evil pieces.
And in the side, the host of this particular ceremony stood in front of them, in her hand was a microphone sourced from one of the companies that her fellow Maou owns in the human world.
"Good evening, everyone~! It's your favourite Maou, Sera-chan~" Serafall, in her iconic pink magical girl uniform, greets everyone in her ever energetic voice that naturally pulls everyone's attention.
But her expected response didn't come, instead, the kids were either looking at her with a weird and confused expression, or they were sitting nervously on their chairs.
Meanwhile, the parents looked at their children with the look of understanding.
The Maou, Serafall was known for her rather eccentric personality, which largely revolves around liking magical girls, and equally being a massive sis-con.
Although the latter was only known to a select few of people.
Both ass a way to protect the Maou and her sister, Sona's dignity.
But dispute knowing that her rather "carefree" personality might earn her a negative reputation and would make people look at gr strangely, Serafall did not care one bit, because for her, Nothing would ever strip away her love of Magical girls.
So despite the rather estranged crowd, Serafall continued her speech, smiling, not minding the strange looks that some of the young folks here are giving her.
But there was one boy who's gaze intrigued her, and when she looked at the owner, a surprised and curious expression filled her face for a split second before she focused back on her speech.
Although Inwardly, she had decided to pay this young man a visit soon. So she can ask— why exactly was he looking at her in amusement, and not the one with hidden ridicule, but pure, unadulterated Amusement as he stared, not just at her face, but even at the costume she wore.
Meanwhile, the boy in question was stuck in his own world, thinking about whether he would be able to come across a banner featuring characters and items part in some Magical Girl anime like Sailor Moon or Madoka…
And if he did get them, he wondered what Serafall's reaction would be if she saw a real life Magical girl in flesh.
Or if he got an item that can make someone a magical girl— he wondered how Serafall would react if he gave it to Sona and she transforms in front of her.
…..
.....
"...And with that, let's start the ceremony!
Please stand up, new Kings! get into a line, and make sure to carry the cases which stores your pieces~"
Upon hearing Serafall's words, both young and oldder devils(Till 20 years old), who are about to receive their evil pieces stood up one after another while carrying a small case, similar to that of the one Hisaki had received earlier this day.
The actions of them woke up Hisaki who had been inside his own mental scape appreciating the magical girl costume that Serafall was wearing.
So, Hisaki, along with Seek, Rias, Latia, and Sona who had came over after seeing all of us sitting together, stood up one after another, and started the line.
Of course, being the most outstanding of the younger generation, and also belonging to the most powerful Noble Families in the underworld, it was no surprising that they were given the seat on the front.
The line fully formed quickly, and upon seeing this, Serafall nodded in satisfaction.
Satisfied that unlike previous batches, none of this batch had forgotten or outright lost their Evil Pieces.
Giving the Evil Pieces to them were deliberate, it acted as a test to weed out irresponsible people from getting Evil Pieces.
After all, if you can't be responsible enough to keep your evil pieces safe, then you sure aren't responsible to manage your very own peerage.
Still, not all bad seeds can be plucked out this way, unfortunately, there's really nothing the Maou's could do regarding this, because, despite them being the highest power of the Devil Society, any decisions and laws that they pass on will always first and foremost, need to get passed a council where the law and rules they want to add needs to be voted whether to be implemented or not.
…..
.....
"Alright! First one, Sona of the Sitri Clan, please enter the Chamber." Serafall gestured, as the curtain that was covering the entrance to the Halls housing the King Stone parted.
Following her sister's words, Sona entered the chamber while carrying the same wooden case which without a doubt housed her own Evil Pieces.
She came back out a minute later before sitting back in the chair after greeting
Hisaki and the rest.
Right after Sona, Latia was asked to enter, and she came back the same time as Sona did beforehand, next one to enter was Rias, and once again, she came back right after a minute or so had passed just like the previous two, although, she looked really excited, probably because she could finally get her peerage.
Next came Seek, and once again, she came out and sighed in relief before sitting back in her chair, which was right beside mine.
"Alright, Hisaki Agares, you may proceed to the chamber."
Hearing Serafall's voice, Hisaki didn't waste any time and walked towards the entrance after taking a deep breath.
And upon entering the chamber, he saw yet another Maou, and he was even more familiar with this one, as this Maou was none other than the creator of the Evil Pieces himself, Ajuka Beelzebub.
"Yo, Hisaki-kun." The light-green haired Satan greeted Hisaki like that of a friend instead of a younger Generation.
"Yo, Ajuka-sensei!" Hisaki greeted him back, before pointing at the crimson monument and asking whether that was the rumored "King Piece"
"Yes and No… but let's not waste time. For now, why don't you open up that case in your hand and hand it to me." Ajuka says with an intrigued look on his face.
"Hm? Oh sure!"
Following Ajuka's request, Hisaki opened the case and handed it to Ajuka who looked at it for a second before grinning.
"I see you tried to do a little experiment, Hisaki-kun."
Hisaki scratched his head.
"Nothing really gets past you, huh, sensei? And I bet you didn't even use that cheat formula of yours."
Ajuka chuckled, before handing Hisaki back his evil pieces before patting his shoulder.
"Let me go ahead and give you a little push; What you are doing is working, so keep it up and you might have an amazing set of evil Pieces, Hisaki-kun."
Hearing his words, Hisaki's eyes glowed, and his excitement grew after receiving the acknowledgement of his only idol in the underworld.
"Alright, let's begin your marking. Place your Evil Pieces in the pedestal, and then channel your Demonic energy in the pedestal, and make sure to directly touch it." Ajuka says with a smile, gesturing to Hisaki to walk towards the pedestal.
Hisaki followed suit, as he put all his evil Pieces in the pedestal, one by one, with the last one being the queen piece and then closing his eyes while both his hands touched the place where Ajuka guided him to and closed his eyes before channeling his demonic energy.
But that wasn't all, Hisaki had also channeled Temporal energy into the pedestal, and slowly but surely turned the Blood-Red crystal into an emerald-like glow.
Suddenly, Hisaki opened his eyes in surprise, as he felt his demonic energy drain at a fast rate.
And before he could ask for help, Ajuka's voice sounded beside him.
"Don't fight it. This is one of the hidden secrets that I had added to the Evil Pieces, and it's only activated when a devil with an immense demonic energy reserves did exactly what you did, the exact time as you did, aka, when marking the Evil Pieces."
"This effect— I never told anyone, not even Sirzechs, and the other Maou's knew about this. I didn't expect you to be the very first one to find out about this little "Easter Egg"."
"For now, I want you to stop entirely everything else that you're doing that's draining your demonic energy, and pour your entire concentration and demonic energy into the podium."
Hearing Ajuka's relaxed voice, Hisaki followed through without wasting any time, trusting Ajuka, and cutting off the supply of demonic energy that he kept pumping into the [Spirit Bead].
This made Kurumi, and the rest of his spirits slowly dematerializing.
And as they slowly turned into moats of light, Hisaki's apologetic voice echoed in their mind, as he explained what was happening.
And Realizing that Hisaki was currently working on something important that needed a massive amount of energy—
The Spirits spent their entire energy, and sent it towards Hisaki through their connection with the [Spirit Bead].
The pedestal suddenly changed once more, and this time, it greatly surprised even Ajuka, as he looked both at the now Iridescent crystal and Hisaki with massive interest.
Meanwhile, back to Hisaki, he suddenly found his consciousness inside the Chaos Temple, in front of the Altar's wooden board that normally displayed the banners.
