In the original destiny, even though the Holy Sword was stolen, no angels were sent; only two Holy Swordsmen and an exorcist appeared.
Even if the Crimson Dragon Emperor appears, Yalin estimates that he will only observe from the shadows and will not take any concrete action.
Of course, after he smashed Azazel and displayed amazing strength, the opponent probably couldn't remain indifferent.
As for the Calamity Clan, they will also send people to contact the Crimson Dragon Emperor, who is both human and has not joined any faction.
Everything is expected.
Volume 1: Chapter 184: The King's Pawn (4k)
The efficiency of the divine monitors was extremely high. After Azazel returned, even though the fallen angels were quite dissatisfied with Arin's actions, the deputy governor Shemuhesa still personally delivered the data on the artifact research.
Vali had originally planned to come along, but Azazel persuaded him not to, saying that he was not ready for the final battle and that if he lost, he would become a subordinate of the Red Dragon Emperor.
Even in Tyrant Dragon Mode, he is no match for Yalin.
The White Dragon Emperor remained silent, but the light in his eyes grew even brighter.
His ultimate goal is to defeat the Great Red and become the True White Dragon God Emperor, on par with him. How could he possibly fall before the Crimson Dragon Emperor?
After receiving the information from the fallen angel, Yalin's understanding of the divine artifacts greatly improved, and he further analyzed the structure and even the essence of the smiling Mother of the Sacred Artifact that Asia possessed.
"Unlike the God-Destroying Gear, ordinary divine artifacts do not possess uniqueness."
From Azazel's information, Arin knew that many divine artifacts were quite common, such as the Crimson Dragon Emperor's Gauntlets, the lower-ranking alternative being the Dragon Hands, which could double the power of the wielder for a certain period of time.
Compared to the effect of the God Destroyer doubling its power every ten seconds, the difference is immeasurable.
Of course, healing artifacts like the Mother's Smile are quite rare, even among the three major powers.
By the time Rias came to visit, Arin had fully understood the power of this divine artifact and had also raised Asia's apparent strength to the level of a top-tier demon.
Of course, if Asia wants to unleash her true power, she still needs to adapt. For now, she can only bully ordinary high-level demons.
"It can heal regardless of race, which is quite useful among artifacts. Although it still has limitations."
Yalin simulated the effect of the artifact, a pale green light appearing at his fingertips. He then flicked his finger, merging the light into a wounded and dying wild deer, allowing its injuries to heal quickly.
All injuries can be healed, but lost body structures cannot be regenerated.
If the hands or feet are severed, this healing ability is useless against such injuries.
"Master, the daughter of the Gremory family has come to visit."
After the Yalin experiment came to an end, Lina came to report.
She has now adapted quite well to life as a maid.
"It's a bit slower than expected."
Yalin entered the living room and looked at the slightly uneasy red-haired girl sitting on the sofa, raising an eyebrow.
"Your brother hasn't come. Does that mean he's not planning to make a deal?"
"That's not the case. My brother is very interested in your proposal. It's just that His Majesty Beelzebub, after learning of your request, wishes to meet with you."
Rias explained.
After news spread that Azazel had been seriously injured by the Red Dragon Emperor in Kuoh-no-Town, she, the ruler, belatedly learned that a great battle had taken place on her territory.
A battle between experts of this level always produces a huge commotion. It's quite absurd that she didn't notice anything unusual at the time.
Furthermore, even knowing that Yalin was very strong, it still surprised her.
I had hoped they would become my spouse, but it turned out that it was impossible.
"Beelzebub?"
Yalin pondered for a moment and remembered that this Demon King was the designer of the Demon Chess Piece and was quite outstanding in the field of spell programming.
Like Azazel, he is a rare and highly skilled technical talent.
Of course, the opponent's strength is also quite good.
"His Majesty Beelzebub seems to believe that the Red Dragon Emperor has unique insights into the Demon Pieces and wishes to communicate with you."
Rias conveyed the Demon King's message: "In return, he is willing to give you a complete set of Demon Chess Pieces."
"That's really generous."
Yalin's tone was unpredictable.
The value of the king piece is self-evident, given that such a high reward is offered just to see him once.
As for the reason why the other party invited him, it was probably because the traces left by Yalin when he analyzed Rias's chess pieces were noticed by the other party.
Since that's the case, let's go to the Demon King's Castle.
"no problem."
Yalin was also eager to see what the Demon King's castle was like.
Incidentally, we'll also collect some demon blood for analysis.
He wasn't worried about whether there was a conspiracy; Rias in front of him wasn't lying.
Moreover, in the face of absolute power, these things are insignificant.
"Your Excellency the Crimson Dragon Emperor, please follow me."
Rias led Arlin to activate a small teleportation array leading to the Demon King's castle.
Yalin watched over Linali and Asia, secretly protecting them.
Many of the villains in High School DxD are not very respectable.
He didn't want his own people to be taken away or even threatened under the guise of something so cliché.
......
The Demon King's capital, Lilith, is similar in size to Tokyo in Japan. While the human world is changing rapidly, the underworld is also keeping up with the times, with modern high-rise buildings everywhere.
As Yalin followed Rias to the teleportation array in front of the palace, they immediately attracted countless eyes.
A human appeared here, led by the daughter of the Gremory family; something just didn't seem right.
Could it be that she has someone she loves and wants to announce it to His Majesty the Demon King?
How would the Phoenix family react if they found out?
The demons gossiped about it.
However, even though they were curious, they wisely refrained from disturbing them.
Rias is the current Lucifer's sister.
Normally it would be fine, but there are clearly special circumstances now, so it's best not to get involved to avoid becoming a laughingstock.
Yalin watched the passing demons with great interest, marking some of them as subjects for later study.
Next, the two arrived at the conference room without any hindrance. As Yalin stepped inside, he found that the Demon King Lucifer and Beelzebub had been waiting there for a long time.
The moment Ajaka Beelzebub saw Yalin, his eyes brightened slightly.
"Is this the Crimson Dragon Emperor?"
It's definitely different from previous owners. Could you tell me what improvements you'd like to make to the Demon piece?
When Ajeka learned that the Crimson Dragon Emperor had proposed a deal, he immediately became interested.
The King's Piece is incredibly tempting to those high-ranking demons. It's convenient for both boosting power and manipulating rankings in the game.
Therefore, they do not allow this secret to be revealed, and anyone who knows the truth about the King's Pawn will be severely punished by these high-ranking officials.
Even he, the creator of the chess pieces and one of the four demon kings, could hardly interfere with the ranking game.
Since the Crimson Dragon Emperor knew this information, let's set aside the source for now. What actions will those high-ranking officials take? Will they deal with him as ruthlessly as they have in the past?
If that's the case, those high-ranking officials will definitely suffer a great loss.
Of course, once Yalin defeats the Fallen Angel Governor, no matter how radical the higher-ups are, they will not take action against a rising Crimson Dragon Emperor.
After hearing that Yarin had made contact with Rias's demon pieces, he looked at them.
They discovered that the hidden elements they had added to the pieces had been triggered, albeit subtly, and then returned to normal.
Someone else probably wouldn't notice the difference.
If Rias's information is correct, it means that in a very short time, Arin's understanding of the Demon Pieces has reached a level second only to his creator.
This talent surprised Ajaca. The Crimson Dragon Emperor, who had always revered power, had actually transformed into a top-notch researcher in this generation.
It is true that it is against Tiangang.
This is why Ajeka sensed something was amiss when Yalin demanded the King's chess piece, feeling that the Red Dragon Emperor was up to something big.
Although he was very confident in his skills and did not believe that others could completely crack it.
The production line also stopped after producing the first batch of chess pieces, and theoretically only he could remake them.
But facing Yalin, Ajeka was unsure for the first time.
"Naturally, the restrictions on this piece will be lifted, its original characteristics will be retained, and its effects will even be enhanced, so that its application will no longer be limited to the demon race."
Yalin said calmly, without any intention of hiding anything.
This is a power amplified tenfold or even a hundredfold. Although there are various limitations, it is perfect for creating soldiers.
Serjax and Ajax felt a slight stirring in their hearts.
The words of this Crimson Dragon Emperor do not sound like those of a pacifist.
The ability to mass-produce top-tier or even demon-level chess pieces would undoubtedly have a disruptive impact on the current situation.
This is also why they hid the King piece; if this piece were misused, it could become uncontrollable.
For the demons at present, stability and continuity are what matter.
"Red Dragon Diallin, what is your purpose in doing this?" Serjax asked, his tone unusually serious.
Although it's uncertain whether Yalin can develop the King's Piece, the idea itself is dangerous enough.
This is also why he and Ajeka met with Yalin together after discussing it.
The attitude of this Crimson Dragon Emperor is of paramount importance.
