Chapter 33
"Oh?!"
Akira noticing Nyx's suspicious expression, knew immediately that he had committed a slip-up.
"Do you know about King Pieces?" Nyx asked suspiciously.
Knowing that he had made a mistake, he just decided to make up a story.
"A little while back, when I was still in a faction in the underworld, I ended up overhearing some superiors talking about King Pieces."
"Is that so?" Nyx was still suspicious, but she didn't ask further, she knew that everyone had their own secrets.
"Anyway, I intend to give you this King Piece." She continued.
King Pieces are rare Evil Pieces, created in the early days of the existence of Rating Games by Ajuka Beelzebub, they were judged too dangerous due to the possibility of being abused by devils who had malicious intentions towards the government. For this reason their production was stopped at the beginning and only Ajuka knew the details of how to create them.
But even with production being shut down, 12 King Pieces were created and 9 were seized by one of the major factions of the underworld.
Akira knew that the characteristic of the King Piece is power enhancement, as it can strengthen the user by several folds. Strengthening is possible in a magnitude of 10 or 100, as it can raise a High Class Devil to power that is comparable to Ultimate Class and even strengthen some users to powers higher than Ultimate Class.
It was necessary to know that everyone who had the King Piece was able to reach the top of the underworld.
The only weakness of the King Piece was that if it was used by someone who was too strong, or if it was used by someone who had a special ability, an overload could occur and in the worst case it would put the person's life at risk.
Of course, in view of the benefits this weakness was absolutely nothing. And anyone would be tempted by such an increase in power, and Akira was no exception.
Seeing that Akira was willing to accept King Piece, Nyx breathed a sigh of relief. She thought he would be the proud type who wouldn't accept help from other people.
But luckily, Akira was not that kind of person.
If Akira knew of this thought from Nyx, he would probably click his tongue.
Refuse help from a powerful person, just because of pride? Only idiots would do that. And he didn't consider himself an idiot, at least not to that extent.
"This King Piece, where did you get it?" Akira asked curiously.
Nyx hearing Akira's question gave a smile and said, "I got it by force from an old devil from the underworld. He had offended me in the past, so to punish him I took King Piece."
Sweat dripped down Akira's back as he thought of the scene of Nyx stealing King Piece from a devil. And from the tone she used, that devil was probably someone important in the underworld.
"That doesn't matter, I will help you assimilate the King Piece, since you already have a Queen Piece in your body I will have to extract it and then help you with the King Piece."
"Fine, anyway this Queen piece I have is not useful since the one who reincarnated me is dead." Akira said.
"I almost forget, but now that I will have King Piece, will I also have my own set of evil pieces?"
"Yes, I also picked up a set for you from those old devils. They were very angry about it, yelling that the pieces I stole were mutated pieces, but who cares about that." Nyx said with regret in her voice.
She remembered that when she stole the set of devil pieces, many old devils that should have been dead suddenly appeared attacking her, unfortunately she was too strong to be defeated by them.
At this moment Akira was excited at the prospect of having his own set of evil pieces. He knew that with this he could begin his peerage.
With the King Piece, he didn't have to touch the monument that functioned as a King Piece. After all, he had his own King Piece.
Nyx seeing Akira's excitement, began to regret giving him the King Piece.
'Wait...'
'Giving him King Piece, isn't that really allowing him to start a harem?!'
'!!!'
She definitely couldn't allow that, so she decided that after helping him, she would give him a lecture warning him and also advising him not to create a harem with the Evil Pieces.
Seeing Akira with a perverted expression on his face as he looked at her distractedly, she knew that she definitely needed to 'talk' to him after this was over.
"Alright, let's get started!" Akira said excitedly.
"..."
Nyx just shook her head as she conjured her shadows to protect the surroundings. She knew that removing the Queen Piece from Akira's body would not be easy, and would put him in a weakened state, so she did not want to take the risk.
In addition, there was also the King Piece.
She knew it was dangerous to use this King Piece, but she was also confident that contact that it was here nothing bad would happen to Akira.
Without waiting long, she drew a magic symbol on the ground.
Even though she wasn't a devil, she had enough knowledge to extract a piece of evil. Besides with her strength there were few things she couldn't do.
'But I must admit, Ajuka did an excellent job on those evil pieces.'
Akira lay down in the magic circle.
Soon, the magic circle was covered by shadows, which surrounded his lying body.
"Argh!"
At that moment, Akira felt one of the shadows piercing his chest followed by a huge pain throughout his body, as well as a great feeling of weakness.
His consciousness was wavering, but due to the pain, he could only keep himself awake.
Nyx seemed relaxed as she went through the whole process of extracting the Evil Piece from Akira's body, but you could see that her eyes were turbulent, and had a trace of pain in them as she watched Akira suffer.
Gritting his teeth, Akira resisted the pain with all his strength, he knew that if he succeeded, he would become much more powerful.
The extraction of his Queen Piece didn't take long, and soon a feeling of helplessness overcame Akira's whole body.
His demonic power had fallen to the lowest levels, it was as if he had returned to being an ordinary human. Even his lifespan had been reduced to the point where devils would feel uncomfortable.
"Akira, the hardest part is about to begin, you will need to resist."
Listening to Nyx, Akira nodded.
"Nyx... I know that when you insert King Piece into my body, there will be danger, so I want to ask you something..." Akira said weakly as he signaled with his hand for her to come closer.
Without much thought, she approached Akira, and put her ears close to his mouth, to hear what he wanted to say.
"You can-"
Before Akira could finish his speech, he felt something pressing against his lips, and when he realized what it was his eyes widened.
'She took the initiative to kiss me?!'
Akira: O_O
"That's your early reward for you getting to absorb King Piece!"
With a coy voice, Nyx quickly pulled away from Akira.
As if she didn't want Akira to think about her previous action, she quickly inserted the King Piece into his chest, causing him to exclaim in pain.
"Arrgh!"
But even though his body is filled with pain, his mind was a mess due to the kiss he received from Nyx.
'She provoked me!'
