Underworld, Familiar Forest.
When the red-light Rubik's Square appeared at the entrance of the forest, the figures of Leo and Ravel Phenex also appeared from the Rubik's Square.
Both of them are from the Pure-blood Devil family, and they are not strangers to Familiar Forest. They are not here to look for familiars this time, so they did not slowly explore it like Leo did when he brought his family here last time. Instead, they directly opened Devil Wings and the flame wings, flew straight into it, and flew to the deepest part of the forest.
Along the way, it was impossible for the two of them to fly so recklessly without attracting the attention of the monsters in Familiar Forest. However, after Leo unabashedly released the Demonic Power wave belonging to Ultimate-Class Devil, most of the monsters immediately hid in despair, not daring to show up at all, allowing the two of them to smoothly enter the core of the forest and arrive in front of a lake.
This is a much larger lake than the one Leo encountered Hydra with Yukino Yukinoshita and others last time. At least if you stand on the shore, it is difficult to see the other side of the lake. You can only see a horizontal line connected to the night. People who don't know may think that they are encountering not a lake, but the sea.
"Miss Tiamat! Leo·Eligos asks to see you!"
Leo landed by the lake and shouted directly towards the lake. The sound echoed above the lake like an echo.
"Wow-"
The next second, a loud sound of water appeared in the lake.
I saw that the calmness of the lake was suddenly broken, and a huge figure appeared from the bottom of the lake, causing a huge splash of water and entering the field of vision of Leo and Ravel Phenex.
It was a giant dragon with blue scales like the sky.
The dragon exuded an astonishing sense of presence, and the dragon waves on its body were so conspicuous and powerful that Ravel Phenex, who was following Leo, couldn't help but feel nervous.
"Then, is that the strongest of the legendary dragons Queen and Five Great Dragon Kings, Tiamat known as "Chaos Karma Dragon"?"
Ravel Phenex was intimidated by the huge size and presence, and his whole body trembled unconsciously.
"Don't be nervous, nothing will happen."
Leo patted Ravel Phenex on the shoulder and comforted her, but his eyes did not leave the huge figure.
Azure Sky Dragon, who emerged from the huge water splash, slowly opened his eyes, as if he had been awakened from a nap, and his huge vertical pupils turned to Leo.
"It's your boy."
From the dragon's mouth, the voice he had heard before appeared.
Immediately afterwards, Azure Sky Dragon spread its wings and flew towards the shore of the lake, its body shape changing in the process.
When the other party fell in front of Leo, Azure Sky Dragon had disappeared, replaced by a mature woman with beautiful long blue hair.
"Aren't you currently training in your own territory? How come you have time to come to my place?"
Tiamat has a cold temperament, but his tone of voice when talking to Leo is very familiar, as if they have known each other for a long time.
"Do you even know about my special training at Underworld?"
Leo was a little stunned and a little surprised.
"Ajuka Beelzebub told me." Tiamat looked at Leo, as if wanting to see if there were any obvious changes in him, and said, "He thought you might come to me to help with training, so he came over to let me know in advance and let me help you within my ability."
Leo nodded suddenly, expressing understanding.
But, why would that demon king think that he might come to Tiamat for help in training?
Do you think you will find a powerful being to practice with to improve your actual combat ability?
This is not impossible. After all, among the people Leo knows, apart from the demon kings, Tiamat should be the most powerful. If he wants to find a strong enough opponent to spar with, he may really find Tiamat on his head.
"The person behind you should be Phenex Clan, right?" Tiamat also noticed the existence of Ravel Phenex and said, "There is a familiar smell of fire. Except for Phoenix, no Devil seems to be able to exude this smell."
"Hello, respected Dragon King, Tiamat." Ravel Phenex immediately saluted Tiamat and said, "I am the eldest daughter of the Phenex Clan, Ravel Phenex·Phenex, now the "castle" of Lord Leo, please give me your advice."
"Oh? Phenex Clan's eldest lady actually became this little guy's servant?" Tiamat was surprised at first, then smiled and said, "She is quite good at investing."
Obviously, Tiamat, who has lived in Underworld for a long time and has a close relationship with Devil, immediately saw Phenex Clan's plan.
"Eligos Peerage is indeed qualified for your family to make such an investment. Even I think their future growth will be extraordinary. You should cherish this relationship and opportunity."
Tiamat said this calmly, making Ravel Phenex nod in deep agreement.
Although they haven't been together for long, Ravel Phenex has already seen how much potential Eligos Peerage has, especially Leo, the "king" himself.
Therefore, Tiamat need not tell you that Ravel Phenex will help Leo and let Eligos Peerage stand out in the Devil world.
For her, this is not only a duty after becoming a dependent servant, but also a necessary step to add a rich touch to her experience in the future.
"If you need me to train you, I don't mind." Tiamat turned to Leo and said, "I just want to remind you that I am not good at showing mercy. If you want me to train you, you have to be mentally prepared for the possibility of being burned to ashes by me."
Hearing this, Ravel Phenex couldn't help but feel a chill.
She could tell that Tiamat was not joking, but serious.
After all, she is a dragon, an existence known as the crystallization of power. As a species that is naturally powerful and advocates power, it is absolutely difficult to get it to show mercy.
Dragons are powerful and violent at the same time. Once they enter a fighting state, they rarely restrain themselves. Most of the time, they fight with all their strength and have no idea what it means to be merciful.
Regardless of whether they are humans or Devil, they are all very fragile races in the eyes of dragons. It is really difficult for them not to trample ants to death.
Of course, Tiamat is the strongest dragon king after all, and is even respectfully called Primordial Goddess of the Ocean among Mesopotamian Mythology. She is not as rough and war-loving as the ordinary Dragon Species, but she is still a dragon after all. Once she is too immersed in the battle, it is not impossible to take too heavy shots.
Therefore, she warned Leo in advance.
However, Tiamat's warning is undoubtedly used in the wrong place.
"Don't worry, Miss Tiamat, I'm not here to train you this time." Leo shrugged and said, "I'm here to complete the commission you gave me last time."
As soon as he said this, Tiamat's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Have you found Tablet of Destiny?"
Tiamat looked at Leo with burning eyes, a look of joy visible to the naked eye on his frosty face.
Leo didn't say anything, and directly unfolded the magic square in his hand, calling out the stone slab he got from Kaguya Shinomiya's hand.
Tiamat's eyes were immediately fixed on the stone slab and never moved away.
"Is this the Tablet of Destiny you've been looking for?"
Leo handed the slate to Tiamat.
Tiamat took it and gently touched the lines on the stone slab.
"How many years." Tiamat said with emotion and unable to hide his joy, "It's been thousands of years since I lent you to that damn Red Dragon Emperor, right?"
"After thousands of years, you are finally back in my hands."
Hearing this, Leo and Ravel Phenex finally laughed.
Tiamat's words have confirmed that this stone slab is the Tablet of Destiny she wants to find.
"It is indeed my lost Tablet of Destiny." Tiamat also smiled and confirmed this, saying, "Although it has exhausted its power over the years, as long as it re-absorbs the energy from the stars, sooner or later it will regain its glory."
As a powerful treasure that can predict the future, one of the conditions for using Tablet of Destiny is that it must absorb enough Stellar Energy to turn the power of the stars into energy before it can be activated.
This requires some kind of special ritual to assist, so no one else can awaken this Tablet of Destiny and use it.
Of course, this is not a problem for Tiamat.
She is the original owner of Tablet of Destiny. Others don't know what to do, but she knows it very well.
"Thank you for finding it so quickly."
Tiamat put away the slate happily and looked at Leo with eyes full of surprise.
She didn't have high hopes at first, but because Tablet of Destiny had been obtained by the previous owner of "Zenith Tempest", she went to see Leo because of a sudden illness and asked Leo to help find this treasure.
Although Leo was entrusted to recover the treasure, it was originally a random investment with little hope. Who would have thought that in just one or two months, Leo would successfully recover it, which really surprised and surprised Tiamat.
"This is also thanks to the demon kings." Leo said with a smile, "If Lord Sirzechs hadn't activated the power of the Devil world to help me find clues, I wouldn't have been able to learn the whereabouts of Tablet of Destiny so quickly."
"That's it." Tiamat nodded and said, "It would not be surprising if the power of the entire Devil world is used to search."
Thinking of this, Tiamat also became thoughtful.
Since this kid can use the power of Devil to find his treasure, can he also use the power of major forces to find his treasures scattered around the world?
You must know that Tablet of Destiny is just one of the treasures that I have lost. In addition, I have many treasures that have been lost all over the world. Many of them have even been collected by major forces and have entered the treasure houses of major forces.
If there is an opportunity to make the major forces owe you a favor, or if they have to help you fulfill a wish, will you be able to find these treasures?
But how to do it?
You need to plan carefully----
With this thought in mind, Tiamat spoke to Leo.
"Since you helped me find Tablet of Destiny, I will naturally keep my promise and hand over the two children I once rescued to you." Tiamat said sternly, "However, I would like to remind you that if you cannot reincarnate them into Devil, then you cannot take them away."
Tiamat also said before that no one wanted to take those two people into their families in the past, but in the end they all failed.
Because the potential and abilities of those two people have exceeded the value of ordinary Evil Piece, they either need Mutation Piece to reincarnate, or Devil, who is the "King |", needs to have powerful abilities, and many Evil Piece must be consumed to be reincarnated successfully, resulting in many people returning without success.
Tiamat didn't mind introducing the two children to Leo, and would even help Leo persuade them to willingly become Leo's dependents. However, if Leo couldn't reincarnate them, Tiamat would not let Leo take them away.
"Is it possible that no one among the Devils who wanted to reincarnate them had Mutation Piece, or that no one was powerful enough to consume multiple Evil Pieces to reincarnate them?"
Leo asked this question.
"Of course." Tiamat answered Leo's question, but shook his head and said, "It's just that those two are a very special pair of twin sisters. Even if they are willing to become someone else's servant, they are not willing to separate from each other, so they themselves also put forward a condition, that is, they must be accepted at the same time before they are willing to go with that person."
"It just so happens that the two sisters have their own special features, and neither of them can be reincarnated successfully by ordinary Evil Piece."
"If you want to take them away, you must either have two Mutation Piece, or you must be more than Maou-Class to be able to use multiple chess pieces to take them."
After hearing this, Leo knew how harsh the conditions were.
If you only need one Mutation Piece, it is not difficult to do it. After all, almost every ten high-ranking Devils will have one Mutation Piece. However, there are only a handful of High-Class Devils that have two Mutation Pieces at the same time, and they may even not exist at all.
At least, in the original work, no one owned more than two Mutation Piece at the same time. Even Rias Gremory only owned one "bishop" named Mutation Piece. Later, he used eight "Pawn" chess pieces to reincarnate. The original protagonist, under the special changes of the original protagonist himself, the "Pawn" chess pieces in his body were transformed into Mutation Piece one after another, so that Rias Gremory's subordinates had multiple Mutation Pieces.
In other words, Rias Gremory is the only one among all the Devils that appeared in the original work to have multiple Mutation Pieces. Moreover, it appeared acquired. In the beginning, there was only one.
Naturally, no one can take away the sisters, unless they are Maou-Class or above.
But how many such existences are there in the Devil world?
Even if there are, I am afraid that the number of dependents under his command is almost full, right?
"Let me take you to meet them first."
Tiamat said this, making Leo nodded.
In my heart, I was somewhat looking forward to it.
