Devils!
Legendary creatures.
Cunning, treacherous, skilled at manipulating hearts.
They could be said to be the instigators of countless disasters.
All of this was from various legends about Devils.
No matter how you looked at it, it had nothing to do with Heroes.
"Don't have such a rigid impression of us Devils."
Ayato shook his head. "I am very tolerant of my servants. Even as a Devil, you can still do what you like."
"Look at Fubuki. She's been doing Hero activities all along, hasn't she?"
Tatsumaki was stunned.
Now that he mentioned it, that did seem to be the case.
If that was so, becoming a Devil, aside from the change in race, didn't seem to have any particular major impact.
"Alright, let's fulfill our bet."
Ayato raised his hand, and an Evil Piece appeared in it.
To be honest!
Although Tatsumaki was indeed one of his targets...
He hadn't expected...
Things to develop so smoothly.
With her power...
It probably wouldn't take long...
For her to become one of the top combatants among his servants.
"What is this?"
"An Evil Piece."
Ayato explained. "A technology developed by a Satan to reincarnate various beings into Devils."
"How... special."
Tatsumaki twitched her mouth.
Chess and Devil Reincarnation.
Those two things didn't seem to go together at all.
"So, how is this piece used?"
"Very simply. Just bury it in your body."
"H-how do you bury it?"
Tatsumaki blinked, feeling like something was wrong.
"Sister, let me help you."
"Eh?! Eh?!"
Tatsumaki's eyes immediately widened. "Why are you undoing my top?"
She looked at Fubuki in disbelief, gritting her teeth. "I'm your sister. Don't make such an excessive joke."
"Sister, this is the standard procedure. Otherwise, how else would I put the piece in?"
"Don't worry, Fubuki's approach is completely correct."
Ayato picked up the Evil Piece and pressed it down directly.
"Hiss... it went in?"
The unfamiliar, cold feeling made Tatsumaki's pupils contract.
"That's it... it worked?"
The moment she spoke.
A dark red magic circle appeared.
She felt her heart begin to beat violently.
Her cells, blood, bones, and veins began to undergo earth-shattering changes.
Her telekinesis was actually growing?
Tatsumaki's breathing quickened, and she began to get excited.
To outsiders, her power was unfathomable.
With Blast's whereabouts unknown, she was called the Hero Association's ultimate weapon.
But only she knew...
Her telekinesis had long stopped growing.
As if it had reached some limit, hit a bottleneck.
And now...
It seemed to have broken through that restriction.
Thinking this!
She felt another power, completely different yet equally vast, flow into her body.
With this power...
She could become even stronger?
Such thoughts arose in her mind.
Tatsumaki suddenly felt that becoming a Devil might have been a gain for her.
"It's the same Balance Breaker as Fubuki's?"
Ayato withdrew the Boosted Gear, murmuring softly.
Should he say...
As expected of sisters?
Hearing Ayato's words, Fubuki's gaze became complex.
Her sister had the same Balance Breaker as her?
If that was the case, how could she surpass her sister?
This was bad.
But soon.
Her eyes lit up.
It seemed there was another way.
She looked down at Tatsumaki, and the corner of Fubuki's mouth curled into a smile.
Sensing Fubuki's gaze, Tatsumaki's eyelids twitched.
What was going on?
Why did she suddenly feel like she had lost something?
"Here. Although you primarily use telekinesis, as a Devil, you still need to master some practical magic."
Ayato flipped his hand, took out a magic book, and said, "This book contains many essential basic knowledge. Study it when you have time."
"Okay."
She took it instinctively and began flipping through it.
"Other worlds?"
Just a few glances in, she exclaimed in surprise.
No wonder!
She had never heard of Devils before.
So they weren't creatures of this world.
But thinking about it that way...
Her master actually had the means to travel between worlds?
Then!
The subsequent content...
The more she read, the more shocked she became.
A God-slaying King.
One who seizes the Authorities of gods.
The arbiter of the three factions: Devils, Fallen Angels, and Angels.
Each of these identities was more frightening than the last.
Probably...
Even a God-level disaster...
Couldn't compare to her master.
"Sister, stop reading for now."
Fubuki pushed Tatsumaki's shoulders forward. "Compared to this, as a servant, there's still the most important benefit."
"Master, grant my sister her Blessing."
"Okay."
Tatsumaki instinctively looked up, about to say something.
But she saw those ruby-red eyes, inches away.
"Mmph..."
Instantly, her cheeks flushed bright red.
