~ I have added this Fanfic to my Patreon. If you'd like to read advanced Chapters, feel free to check it out!
~ I'm planning to increase the number of advanced Chapters to 50 this weekend!
~ I've edited so of the previous Chapters to remove anything you might consider "cringe" or "unnecessary." I'll continue reviewing them from ti to ti!
~ Very soon, we'll return to releasing two Chapters daily, including bonus privileges for Power Stone contributions!
- Pawn: The humble [Pawn] piece. Oftentis seen as the weakest piece and used in sacrifice gambits for other pieces to advance, the Pawn can be a surprisingly devastating wildcard, depending on how it is used. To represent that, any [Pawn] can use, with their [King's] permission or in enemy territory, a power known as [Promotion], which allows them to temporarily assu the characteristics of the other pieces. They have no particular weaknesses, but no particular strengths. [Pawns] are, funnily enough, worth one [Pawn] each.
- King: Unlike the other pieces, the [King] 'piece' is used by the Master of the Peerage, who is either a High/Ultimate Class Pureblood Devil or a High/Ultimate Class Reincarnated Devil. In each territory of the four Maō, there exists a monunt that each [King] touches that acts as a [King] piece proxy for them. [Kings] are similar to [Pawns] in that they have no strengths or weaknesses to them. [Kings] are also not ranked by Pawn pieces.
Issei felt his eyes cross at that info dump. While this was fascinating, it wasn't what he wanted to know, so he skipped to the bottom and resolved to read the rest later.
Class: [(Devil Peerage) King]
A class given to those who touch the [King Monunts] in the territory of the Four Maō. It offers several skills that interact with other Evil Pieces within that King's Peerage, but doesn't boost any of the class holder's stats or abilities.
Stat Boosts: None.
Class Skills Gained: [Evil Piece Reincarnation], [Master-Servant Circle Teleport], [Castling], [Devil Contract Magic Circles], [Servant EXP Sharing].
Issei's eyes narrowed when he read the last skill and he reached out to tap it.
[Servant EXP Sharing] (Passive)
A Devil makes contracts with humans. Similar to a quest, the contracted Devil receives rewards upon the completion of the request of their contractor, usually money, precious tals, valuable artwork or favours owed. They also receive a chunk of experience, the amount of which varies depending on the type and difficulty of the request, as well as the social status of the contractor. A King receives an amount of EXP whenever their Servants complete a contract, which varies depending on which Evil Piece the servant possesses, how many of the piece they have or if it's a Mutation Piece and the rank of Devil that the Servant is (Low, Middle or High).
"Ok, that just isn't fair." Issei muttered in complaint. If ALL of the ORC and Student Council were Reincarnated Devils, or even if most of them were, then it wasn't any wonder Rias Gremory and Sona Sitri were jumping up in levels so quickly; even if each of their Servants only completed a single contract per day, then they were still receiving a good chunk of EXP every single day, and judging by the speed of their masters' levelling up, there was no way that each of them were only doing a single contract a day!
It would also explain why Sona was a higher level than Rias; the Kaichou simply had more Servants completing contracts than her redheaded counterpart did. Rias was catching up though, which probably had to do with how much EXP it was taking Sona to level up rather than extra diligence on Rias' part.
Closing the window, Issei turned his attention to the other two windows. Once was a notice that his Relationship with Sona Sitri had been reset to Neutral from its forr position of Dislike. After checking the table of Relationships, Issei found she hadn't disliked him that much, as [Disliked] was only two steps down from [Neutral].
The other was a list of two skills that had been created when he had been talking to Sona.
[Lying Through Your Teeth] (Active) [LV1, 00.00]
Everyone has a particular style of lying that suits them. So lie by telling the truth, so lie by omission and so, like yourself, specialise in lying by telling brazen untruths. Oh sure, the truth was mixed in there sowhere, but you never said any of that and you know it.
- While [Lying Through Your Teeth] is active, you will brazenly lie. The likelihood of being believed by your target is determined by taking your CHA stat and comparing it to your target's CHA stat, after altering yours and their CHA stats with modifiers (How smart your target is, how likely they are to belief you, how likely they are to think that you are lying to them, etc, etc). If your CHA score is higher than your target's, you win and your lie goes through. If less, they win.
- If you fail the Lie Check, there is a 10% chance they will not call you on the lie.
Beneath the skill there was a note that his LUK stat had been increased by 5 for pulling off Grade-A lying without a skill and successfully deceiving soone with INT more than 50 points higher than his own. Jeez! Sona Sitri had more than 73 INT?! Boy, was he lucky.
[Composure] (Passive) [LV1, 00.00]
Used in concert with other skills, such as [Acting], [Dramatics], [Lying], [Bullshitting] and other deception-based skills, [Composure] allows you to seem cool and calm on the surface so that any unease or uncertainty are masked. Even the emotional responses of fear or anger are concealed before the activation of the [Gar's Mind].
- 20 to any deception-based skill check.
A very good set of skills. Issei's head jerked up as the bell went off, signalling the start of lunch. Cursing, Issei beat feet to the cafeteria. He was hungry, damn it!

Rias Gremory stared into violet eyes as she asked, "Sona, are you certain that's what he said?"
