"I smell blood..." said Koneko as her nose curled up in disgust.
"Creak—!!"
Came the noise of the rusty old door opening as we went inside the building, coming inside Rias began to explain the fighting of Devils.
"Issei this is a good chance to learn about fighting between Devils!" Issei thought, 'how can this woman still not guess I'm a bloody life-long martial artist, she thinks I'm weak or something! Well I'll show her!'
"So remember the three way struggle between the devils, angels and the fallen, well within that battle all forces were exhausted with no clear winner, and the Devils lost too many pure bloods, and as a result couldn't lead their troops.!"
"And from there on a new system of organisation for the few remaining pure blood devils began, the evil pieces were started, 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 usage of the Evil Pieces, believing them to be a disgrace to Devils for reincarnating Humans and other races into Devils.
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...!"

"Issei you know Chess- and Shogi well it's a bit like that to be honest. Among the chess pieces you have the:
• Pawn: worth 1 Pawn each. The traits of Pawns is the ability to promote into a Queen, Rook, Knight, or Bishop in enemy territory (as seen in the anime when Issei enters the church to save Asia) or with the permission of their King (as seen when Issei asked Rias for permission to promote before fighting Riser to break off the engagement). (Hyoudou Issei)
• Rooks: are worth 5 Pawns. Rooks gain superhuman strength, leading to high offense and defense. However, they are not very quick, and can get beaten easily by a high-speed opponent. (Toujou Koneko)
• Knights: worth 3 Pawns. Knights gain increased speed and mobility, enabling them to perform high-speed attacks and maneuvers. However, their main weakness is their low defense, making them vulnerable to powerful attacks if they are not careful, if their legs are injured, their mobility is greatly reduced reducing their usefulness. (Yuuto Kiba)
• Bishops: worth 3 Pawns. Bishops gain enhanced magical abilities which they can use to conjure up a multitude of spells (offensive, healing, Etc) however, more powerful spells consume most of their magical power, which takes a long time to regain, forcing them to use their power carefully or risk becoming vulnerable to physical attacks. (Argento Asia)
• Queens: worth 9 Pawns. Queens possess all the characteristics of Rooks, Knights, and Bishops, making them the most balanced piece as well as the most powerful. Within individual peerages, Queens typically act as their master's second-in-command, overseeing the rest of the peerage. (Himejima Akeno)
And the Rating Game is used to measure a Devil's strength which will reflect their social standing in the Underworld. And you basically fight with 16 members of your peerage and if ones King is defeated then your peerage is defeated."

"Stray Devil, we've come here to destroy you!"
"Damn it reeks like no other!!"
"Too much damn Blood- it's disgusting!!!"
Soon I saw the so called stray, and it was merely a centaur with a females upper body, nothing else. Normally at this point the knight would go in with his extreme speed and then the rook would go in before the queen destroys it.
However I subverted all this as I merely bent my knees and pushed my palms near my waste ready to perform a Dragon Wave upon the crappy monster.
But because it was taking a bit of time to charge it, Kiba had already gone in and chopped off the monsters two limbs with two swell slashes.
"... Thud..!"
"... Katching!!"
"....DOO!!"
The slashes had worked and the monsters hands had fallen off, seeing this as a moment to move back and allow Koneko to attack Kiba moved away with his versatile body, leaving it for Koneko to finish.
".... RAAAGOOON!!!"
And so Koneko went in with two uppercuts flinging the centaur up in the air, "Whoosh!!" And then slammed it straight down to the ground causing a massive pit to form.
"….. WAAAAVVVEEE!!!!"
Seeing that my chance was here i quickly took back my palms as I shifted my body sidewards, and then I let out my pent up
Red energy at the beast.
"….. HAAAAAH!!!"
With a proper, "DOOO-RAAAGOOON-WAAAVE-HAAAAH!!!" Ilaunched it at the centaur and in an instant of impact the monster was completely wiped out- it was decimated from existence.
