King Piece

The King Piece is one of the pieces used in the Devils Evil Pieces system and is given to those that were either born into High-Class Devil families or risen through the ranks to either a High-Class Devil or Ultimate-Class.

## History

The Evil Pieces were created by Ajuka Beelzebub using the crystals available in the Agreas Island to help replenish the number of Devils after the Great War which had caused the death of countless Devils. While many Devils were able to adapt to the Evil Pieces, the Old Satan Faction rejected the use of them and declared they would never use them, believing them to be a disgrace to Devils for reincarnating Humans and other races into Devils. The creation of the Evil Pieces eventually lead to the creation of the Rating Game, which allowed for a way for Devils to go all out against each other, either in a friendly match or to solve issues, without risk of killing anyone, though even with safeties built in, there is still the chance of death if a strong enough attack is used.

Evil Pieces are commonly given to Pure-blooded High-class Devils, so that they can gather servants of their own. Reincarnated Devils are also given the chance to receive Evil Pieces should they rise in rank and become a High-class or Ultimate-class Devil like Tannin and Rudiger Rosenkreutz.

When a Devil receives the right to obtain the Evil Pieces they are required to go to the Satan's territory and give a speech about what their plans are for the future and are given their Evil Pieces at the time, though the King Piece is given in a private ceremony after the public ceremony.

While Ajuka originally had issues getting the King Piece to work and not cause issues with the first testers for the Piece, he has since been able to make the piece an official part of the set given to those that are able to obtain them.

## Other Points of Note

When Issei was killed by Raynare, he had yet to gain his Evil Pieces as his had just been completed right before the event and thankfully due to Grayfia, Sirzechs and Millicas hearing Issei's final words in their heads, Ajuka was able to make it in time to him with his King Piece, a Mutated one at that, and revive him as well as by using the 2 Mutated Rooks that Sona had from her peerage.

### Trading

If a King wishes to trade a Piece with another King, a ritual must be performed. A trading-purpose magic circle must be drawn with The Kings standing at the sides of the magic circle while the person(s) being traded stand in the center of it. The Kings increase their auras while putting their hands forward and activate the written Devil symbols to circulate. The auras of everyone around them begin to glow and synchronize, changing from the color of the aura that represents the previous King to the new King's aura. With that, the ritual will end and the trade is completed in a simple manner.

A trade can still occur even if one of the pieces of the other party has not been used. It is also possible to trade multiple pieces simultaneously, even if they come from different peerage

## Peerage

For those that have either been born into a High-Class family or have risen through the ranks to become one, they are able to receive their own set of Evil Pieces and each one has it's own perks. Listed below are what each piece gives as a trait and the known Pieces in use currently.
