Utaha sat on the sofa, looking at the dazed Asia. "Master, is Asia going to be okay?"
"She just learned that God is dead. She's having a hard ti accepting it."
"That's true. Even I find it hard to believe."
Utaha twirled a strand of hair around her finger, murmuring to herself.
Whether when she was human or now,
The fa of the Biblical God was simply too great.
Thinking this, Utaha said playfully, "But Master, what about those two Holy Sword wielders?"
Ayato smiled slightly and gave her a look that said it was all but certain.
"As expected of my perverted Master."
Utaha praised him. "No one can match you when it cos to taking advantage of others' weakness."
"I'll take that as a complint."
"Perverted Master, do you have a different understanding of the word 'complint'?"
"Really? That's not what you said the other night."
"..."
Utaha's face was covered in dark lines.
'It's over!'
'Ever since I gave myself away, I couldn't freely tease him anymore.'
Ayato took a cake from the fridge and handed it to Asia. "You didn't eat anything for dinner. Have a little."
Taking the cake instinctively, Asia ate it listlessly.
But her eyes remained vacant.
Even after reincarnating as a Devil, she still prayed to God often.
Her devout faith was evident.
But now... she felt so lost.
Click!
Just then, the door pushed open.
"Ayato-sama, please let us beco Devils."
The ones who walked in were Irina and Xenovia.
They rushed forward, and with a thump, perford a very standard dogeza, bowing deeply to Ayato.
"You don't need to be so formal."
Ayato was sowhat amused. "Didn't I already agree to it before?"
"Thank you for your understanding."
"Before, we were being ungrateful."
The two looked up, their eyes teary, like abandoned puppies.
Asia ca back to her senses a little and looked at them. "You two, you really shouldn't rush into sothing like this."
"What does it matter? You reincarnated as a Devil too, didn't you?"
Irina smiled first, then began to wail. "And besides, the Lord is dead, isn't He?"
"Because we questioned this, the Church has already branded us as heretics."
Xenovia said with a self-destructive air. "So becoming a Devil or whatever... it doesn't matter at all."
Listening to this, Utaha's lips twitched.
Before this, she had so contact with them because of the maid outfits.
Even though their positions were opposed before, she knew they weren't bad people.
But the devout faith they had held since childhood was deeply ingrained.
However, precisely because it was so extre, once shattered, they would fall into the opposite extre.
Just like now.
Learning that the Lord was dead,
Both had given up and chosen to beco Devils.
In a way, both of them were almost endearingly innocent.
In that instant, Utaha admired her master even more.
'He had seen through all of this in such a short ti.'
'That's why he had sched to let them know the reality of God's death.'
'This way,'
'Gaining two more servants would be effortless.'
'Such thods were truly Devilish.'
'Wait, he's already a Devil?'
'Then never mind.'
"Alright, since you've decided."
Ayato took out two Pawn pieces. "Let's begin the Devil Reincarnation ceremony."
"Thank you, Ayato-sama. No, we should call you Master now."
"Please take care of us, Master."
The two completed their role reversal almost instantly.
"Now, take off your tops."
"Huh?"
"This is the Devil Reincarnation ceremony?"
"Yes. Do you not want to?"
Irina and Xenovia looked at each other and finally nodded.
Anyway, God was dead.
Nothing mattered anymore.
They took a deep breath and removed their tops.
"Is this okay?"
Irina crossed her arms, her voice shy.
Even if he was their future master, it was still so embarrassing.
"M-Master... what do we do next?"
Xenovia's voice trembled.
Though she lacked common knowledge, it didn't an she knew nothing.
Being like this in front of a man... almost made her run away.
Seeing this, Ayato didn't let them wait long. He took one piece in each hand and placed them on their bodies.
The instant touch made both of them tremble.
The next mont,
Their skin seed to turn to water, and the Evil Pieces sank into them.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
Irina and Xenovia's pupils widened slightly as they felt their hearts pound.
At the sa ti, their lower backs and tailbones began to itch.
'These must be the Devil wings and tail.'
They both thought this.
