"Sirzechs, I've heard that your sister has taken this generation's Red dragon emperor as her servant."
Compared to some trivial matters of the underworld, Ajuka preferred to study the fact that the red dragon emperor had become a servant for the first time.
He was curious to see to what extent an evil piece could elevate or what changes the red dragon emperor could bring to a piece.
"Rias's so cool!"
Serafall was primarily in charge of diplomatic work and happened to be away from the underworld at the time, so this was her first time hearing about this matter.
"The troublesome thing is his status."
Although Rias and Sona suppressed info about Yasuhiro, as the heirs of two noble families and also having a very doting brother and sister who were Maous. They naturally had many eyes around them, constantly monitoring their movements.
"Could Rias's servant be a descendant of a hero or something?"
In Serafall's memory, many families descended from heroes were conservative and pedantic. They'd never easily allow their people to become servants.
"It's even more troublesome than that. The red dragon emperor's brother happens to be a holy knight wielding Excalibur blessing or in other words a holy sword wielder."
"This is a bit troublesome."
This was the first time Falbium and Ajuka had heard of this. They only thought that Sirzechs's sister had subdued the current red dragon emperor and made him a servant, never expecting that the church and heaven would be involved in the end.
Even if holy knights and holy sword wielders were classes that could instill fear in many devils, they wouldn't normally attract the attention of Maou's.
It was only because of the church and heaven standing behind him that they had to be concerned.
The three factions were all conserving their strength and are neither likely nor able to wage war.
Not long ago, that madman caused great tension between the underworld and heaven, so now is definitely not the time to act rashly.
"Sona has been observing this holy knight but he hasn't made any unusual moves."
"Wait."
"Sirzechs, you actually let Sona monitor such a dangerous person? And why didn't anyone tell me?"
Serafall glared at Sirzechs, ready to unleash her fury if he didn't give her a straight answer.
"Serafall, calm down. It wasn't my order for Sona to monitor him, it was their own decision."
"I'm going to the human world."
"No."
The three of them immediately stopped Serafall from getting up.
"Serafall, this isn't the time for you to act recklessly. Have you forgotten the lesson you learned last time?" Ajuka spoke with unusual sternness.
Last time.
Back in Europe, she had suffered an unforgettable and humiliating disgrace.
She was almost captured, she, one of the Four great maous of the underworld.
Even in her most private areas, there were marks that made her unbearably ashamed, a unique mark belonging to that madman, which he would sense whenever she appeared in the human world.
Every time she took a bath, she saw that mark, feeling as if she were seeing the slave brands that existed in the underworld before the great war. This shame was deeply rooted in Serafall's heart.
And, she couldn't even remove the seal.
She was completely powerless against it. It was located in such a area that she abandoned the idea of asking others for help too.
Sirzechs and the other two were completely unaware of Serafall's mental state.
Seeing that Serafall had calmed down, they still thought that her failure in europe had been a good learning experience for her, at least she was less impulsive.
If Serafall had heard those thoughts, she would have already flipped the table, grabbed her wand, and smashed the three of them to death without a second thought, letting them know the terror of an angry magical girl.
Not wanting to dwell on this fruitless discussion, Sirzechs was about to move on to other matters when suddenly his expression changed drastically.
A terrifying aura unleashed from his body, obliterating everything it touched.
Just as Falbium was about to ask what was going on, Ajuka also stood up with a complex expression.
Immediately afterward, an overwhelming chill swept in, turning the entire conference room into an ice land.
Due to the sudden burst of demonic power in the conference room, a jumble of footsteps came from outside. Clearly, the guards thought something had happened. Falbium immediately stopped the guards and told them to wait at the door.
"What exactly happened?" Falbium asked with a serious expression.
The fact that something could cause three of the Four great maous to lose control spoke volumes about the shock they must have just experienced.
"The demonic power I left inside Rias's evil
piece has been removed."
"Mine too."
Serafall and Sirzechs said with grim expressions. Although there could be many reasons for this, the most likely reason was that something unexpected had happened to them, causing the fail safe demonic power left in the evil pieces to trigger.
"The seals on their pieces have been broken and it was the power of light that broke the seal."
"I guess, they stole the evil piece technology."
"What!"
What Ajuka said was even more serious than what Serafall and Sirzechs had thought, evil pieces creation was considered one of the underworld's top secrets, and it had actually been stolen.
"It's that holy knight."
Without a doubt, the culprit had to be the guy who appeared beside Sona and Rias. Otherwise, it would be too much of a coincidence!
Moreover, the power used to break the seal was the power of light.
"Using reverse engineering and combined with years of research in heaven, it's likely that within a few days they'll have a technology similar to the evil pieces."
