"I was frankly disturbed when you accepted to become a Devil and thought your attitude and way of life changes, but I'm surprised again.
You didn't change and though the boost the Evil Pieces gave you were minimal, they gave you an opportunity. An opportunity to bring your admirers and lovers under one banner and your execution was nothing less than enticing.
Skilful adoption and assessment of every woman you take in with expert ease made me feel the adrenalin. I was always curious which piece you would assign to a certain person.
I was correct in most and was mistaken in Kazehana's case in which I thought you would make her your Pawn, but you made her your Rook.
But after careful observation, I understood why. And I was amazed by your impressive acting skills as well, my lord. I'm thoroughly impressed and enchanted by you." She said, finally stopping her long-winded explanation.
After that, she went into more detail about what else she knew and Naruto sat there, hearing everything and the more she explained, the more he saw her love for him.
The experience was definitely eye-opening which was shared by Kurama as the grumpy and impatient fox listened carefully to the witch.
Meanwhile, Elder Council Office
As ordered by their Great King, the Rating board members are going through all the possible candidates that can be pitted against their beloved Jiraiya-sama.
"Lord-Belial and other Master class players are out of the question because of Zekram-sama's order." Said one of the officials.
The Rating game board totally had 7 members. But only 5 members were assigned the duty to make a suitable arrangement as the rest were busy with other matters.
Generally, 5 also not assigned as normal Rating game matches are decider by 3 member panel. But since this match includes their beloved Jiraiya-sama, 5 members were assigned for a careful assessment and finalisation of the match.
Zekram Bael is called Zekram-sama or Great King but not as Bael-sama since that title falls to the current lord of Bael House, who is Zekram's decedent.
"Who else are there in the Expert class to put against Jiraiya-sama who is at least of medium level?" They thought among themselves as they went through all possible names.
"We should also take into account the number of High Class and mid-class devils in the Peerage as well," said another.
"Yes, that's all good. Do you think Jiraiya-sama can win this match?"
"Winning aside, what does he expect in return from this?"
"I don't think that it all depends on us. We should select a good candidate for him to win,"
"Yes, yes. He might release some new novels in appreciation," they said in unison.
They all forgot they were going through all the possible candidates and accidentally pressed select on one name and it was selected as the final candidate as their dirty minds chose that moment to drop into the gutter.
The name was finalised as they mimicked some moments they are dreaming and the names were magically started printing on the candidates' sheet.
After all printing was done, they got a message from the paper to seal the paper and reality chose that moment to crash in on their dreams.
"What?"
"What happened?"
"I'm doing well, My Lord,"
"What the hell,"
"What in the name of Maou,"
Were their reactions as they looked at the printed rating game finalists and shocked and scared to the bone.
"Shit. What have we done?"
"Search for something. We should change this,"
"It's not possible. You know how the roaster works. Once names are finalised, only Zekram-sama, with the approval of the majority of the council, can change it."
"B-but, this is not good. He is far more experienced to fight against Jiraiya-sama,"
"Yes. He had a full set as well. What are Jiraiya-sama's known pieces?"
"A Rook, a Knight and a Bishop not including himself."
"This is troubling, but we can't change anything now. Let's send this to both of them," said one of the daring members.
"Guys, we are forgetting something, he is a big pervert as well. So he might think better than winning against Jiraiya-sama," argued one of the members.
"Hahaha. Yes, we can do this happily now," said others and stamped the sheet with Rating Game Board's official sigil and sent it to both parties as ordered. It read.
Rating Game Announcement
'It is to inform both parties of this Rating game that an official Rating game has been organised and approved by the Elder Council.
So you are requested to present at the designated arena in time to play the game.
You will be given a briefing of how the game is played before the game and are welcome to ask any questions to the Board.
As this is not in the Roaster, it is considered as an Unofficial Rating game but the Rating game Board reserves all rights to the game.
Best Wishes participants,
Rating Board.'
'Rating Game
Jiraiya the Toad Sage Vs Riser Phenex, Third son of the Phenex Clan.'
Read the members. Seeing that it was up to their satisfaction, they happily sent it to Jiraiya and Riser.
The game was supposed to take place in a few weeks in the mutual location which is to be agreed upon by both participants.
Seeing that their work is done, they retired for the day, expecting a great Rating game and new books from the famous perverted white-haired man.
