Chapter 22: Cheating
"This is ......" Issei looked around, and there was darkness everywhere he looked, and he couldn't see his fingers.
However, surrounded by this darkness, Issei did not feel the slightest fear, but gave birth to a sense of reassurance.
"This is the deepest realm of your consciousness, Issei." There was no figure in sight, but the voice seemed to be close at hand, and Issei subconsciously called out the name of his master.
"Naraku?"
"Ah, that's right, but, for some reason, this place is inconvenient for me to show as it is, well, even so, but, you listen to me patiently first......"
"You...... How do you ......" Issei did not doubt that the flirtatious tone was a representative of Naraku.
"How did you get here?" Naraku's voice flickered high and low, and Issei barely managed to hear a rough idea.
"Hmm."
"Well, when I was training you before, I slightly divided some of my energy and teleported it into your body, and what you see now can be said to be almost just something similar to my residual thoughts or clones."
"I always feel that Naraku, your artifact is more rebellious than mine!" Yicheng was a little jealous, grinding his teeth when he spoke, "Even this kind of thing can be done." β
"That's what you're wrong, what I've done is not the ability of the artifact, the artifact is just an auxiliary, the real strength is your own basic strength, and this method can be done as long as you have a certain degree of strength, of course, there is also skill to do it."
Naraku's words made Yicheng speechless for a moment, he obviously has the god of annihilation but it is difficult to exert his own strength due to his lack of strength, on the other hand, Naraku, can turn ordinary things into magic, in secular words, Naraku's grass, trees, bamboos and stones can be the realm of swords, and he ......
Yicheng swelled up with a wave of grievances.
"Don't worry, you're going to have a lot to accomplish in the future. After all, Issei as I know is a man who will not be satisfied with the status quo and will work harder for the sake of his purpose. The reason for Issei's silence Naraku was quickly noticed, and the voice echoed in the darkness, comforting Issei who was frustrated.
"You can always read what I'm thinking, Naraku." Yicheng smiled, obviously in a much better mood, "That's it, I'm going to be the man of King Harem!" β
Yicheng is full of ambition!
"Ahem...... Let's get down to business as soon as possible. Sensing that Isei swept away the depression in his heart, Naraku's voice sounded again.
"Wait, aren't we all in one mind? It's disgusting! β¦β¦ Naraku is not a cute girl. Suddenly, Issei said with a look of disgust.
"Do you want to die?"
"I was wrong...... Wrong! This is my consciousness, I am the master! Yicheng instinctively wanted to apologize, but suddenly realized, his voice was raised, and he was full of confidence. If it weren't for the darkness around him, Ichisei's face would have been full of smirks.
"......'I' will only appear once, and the power of 'thought' is not much, I'm afraid this is the last time to talk to you."
"That's good. Anyway, reality can meet, and the subconscious goodbye of two big men always feels too weird, and I don't want to be material yet......"
"So, listen, I'll only say this once, and I can only say it once." Naraku's voice was serious, that kind of undeniable seriousness.
"It's basically impossible for you and Sister Lias to win RatingGame right now."
"What......!"
"Don't talk too much, it's a fact."
"I believe the Minister!" Issei shook his head and resolutely objected to Naraku's words.
How seriously Lias took this matter, Issei knew, he didn't allow defeat, he wasn't fighting alone, and Kitten, Aisha, Juni-senpai, and Little White-faced Kiba would definitely be able to make that hateful turkey realize that Jimonri was not easy to mess with!
"This world is about strength, if you have strength, you can call the wind and rain, if you don't have strength, you have to be hard, I have estimated the strength between you, unfortunately, your chances of winning are very slim, I am not as optimistic as Sister Lias. Of course, I also understand that you are the type who does not give up until the Yellow River, so I have a proposal, although in the end it is just an insurance measure, but do you want to listen to it? Naraku's voice was a little banter, a little temptation, and Issei ignored the disturbing noise as much as possible, listening attentively to every word Naraku said.
"Yes."
"'Cheat,' Hyodo Kassei."

11:40 p.m.
Issei and the rest of the team gathered in the department of the old school building, each of them, waiting in their own way to relax the most, and basically everyone except Aisha was wearing school uniforms.
Kiba was equipped with hand armor, his calves were also equipped with equipment, and his sword stood against the wall.
Kitten-chan sits in a chair, reading a book, and wears open-fingered gloves on her hands, like the kind worn by martial artists.
A child-faced girl wearing this kind of thing has a subtle courage. (Note: open-fingeredgloves for mixed martial arts)
Senior Sister Zhu Nai and the minister were sitting on the sofa, drinking tea elegantly.
Both Issei and Aisha sat in their chairs, just quietly waiting for time to pass.
Ten minutes before the start began, the Rubik's Cube in the room glowed, and Miss Grufia appeared.
"Everyone, are you ready? Ten minutes to go. When Miss Gurefia confirmed, everyone stood up.
Then, Miss Gurefia began to explain, "Once you reach the start time, please teleport from this Rubik's Cube to the battle arena, which is located in a battle world created in a different dimension, and it doesn't matter how gorgeous the fight is, because it is a space that will be lost when it runs out, so please use it to your heart's content." β
Indeed, if you fight somewhere in the human world or the demon world, destruction is inevitable, and there may be various effects, so it is necessary not to cause harm to this world no matter what you do.
"That, Minister."
"What's wrong?"
"There's another [monk] here, isn't there? What about that person? β
I've heard Lias say that she already has a Monk when Aisha was a reincarnated demon when she became a demon, so Issei asked, who was puzzled by not calling it out in this situation.
After Issei asked, everyone except himself and Aisha looked a little strange.
"It's a pity that the other [monk] won't be able to attend, sooner or later, the time will come for that event." Lias looked at Issei and said.
[It seems a little hard to say, but this topic may be better here.] Issei, who feels that the atmosphere is not quite right, thinks so, [But, what is it that you have to do in advance if you don't have to do an important game about the master? I can't figure it out. γ
In a heavy atmosphere, Miss Grufia spoke.
"This time, everyone from both sides of [RatingGame] will be watching the battle at the relay location, and the Demon King Lucifer will also come to watch the battle this time, so please don't forget that."
At this point, Lias seemed very surprised.
"Brother? β¦β¦ In this case, my brother will come and see it directly. β
At this time, Yicheng suddenly raised his hand and asked.
"That, that, just now, the minister asked the Demon King to be his brother...... Did I hear me wrong? β
However, Kiba replied.
"No, the minister's brother is the Demon King."
γWhat......γ
"Demons, Demon Kings~~~~~~~!? The minister's brother is a demon king!? β
"That's right." Lias was immediately sure.
[It's really fake! Really!? No, wait, but the minister is from the 'Jimonri clan', and the name of the Demon King seems to be better, isn't it...... Lucifer, Beelzebub, Leviathan, Asmodeus, whatever the name is wrong? γ
"It's because the minister's surname is different from the name of the Demon King, so it's confusing, right?" Kiba voiced the question in Issei on the spot.
"Ah, yes."
Then Kiba began to explain.
"The Demon King of the previous Great War was mortally wounded and has passed away, but the Demon can't live without the Demon King, and here it is-"
The demons will leave the name of the demon king, let the powerful people inherit, the current four demon kings, is the successor who inherited the name of the first demon king, the most superior demon.
Lucifer and Beelzebub are not personal names, but now they are just job names.
"To tell the truth, among the three forces of the god camp, the organization of the fallen angels, and the demons, the demons are now the weakest and in a rather dangerous situation, but because the current demon king does not lose the power of the previous demon king, he barely keeps the demon side."
"So, does that mean that the elder brother who is the minister of the highest demon has been chosen as the demon king?"
Kiba nodded in response to Issei's question.
"Sazex Lucifer - [Red-Haired Demon King], that is the minister's elder brother, the strongest Demon King."
βSazex Lucifer.
ββ¦β¦ Therefore, it is not possible for a minister not to inherit the family. β
"It's almost time, everyone, please go to the Rubik's Cube." At the urging of Miss Grufia, everyone present gathered in the Rubik's Cube.
"Also, if you move over there for a while, you can't transfer until you end the Rubik's Cube."
In other words, when you come back, it's time to tell the winners.
Then, the light lit up, wrapped Issei and the others, and began to transfer......
