"By the Underworld! Look at YOU…" said a man with swept back green hair and blue eyes.
Harry called him a man, but he was actually a devil. Ajuka Beelzebub, one of the four Satans that ruled over the Underworld. Despite the man's laidback nature, Harry could feel that power. Even more than with Grayfia, Harry could tell the being in front of him was a real monster.
Harry put his hand out. "Nice to meet you."
He'd never been the kind to cower from monsters.
The underworld wasn't nearly as bad as Harry had heard. It was actually pretty nice, once you got used to the purple sky. It mostly felt like being on earth. Rias had told him, though, that there was no day and night. So what Harry was seeing now was how it would always look.
Laughing in a pleasant way, Ajuka accepted his gesture of goodwill. The two of them shook.
"So, my good man, what are you?" Ajuka asked when they were done.
Rias, Akeno, Fleur, and Grayfia were nearby. Harry saw that Grayfia frowned. As one of the underworld's leaders and the creator of the Evil Piece system, Harry got the feeling Ajuka was usually the one with all the answers.
"I'm a devil now," Harry said. "At least that's what they tell me."
"I promise, they're not wrong about that. You have one of the pieces I created inside of you," Ajuka said. "Still, there's something different about you. You don't remind me of a human magician. If I had to put a name to what you remind me of, though…"
Harry raised a curious eyebrow. "Go on?"
"I'd say that you remind me of Hades," Ajuka said.
The god of the dead. Harry had to pause for a second to come to grips with the fact that he, like devils and angels and God, were all real. It reminded him of being eleven again.
"The god of the dead?" Harry asked.
"You have the scent of death," Ajuka said. "Where it came from, or what it means? That escapes me…"
Harry shrugged and didn't tell him anything extra. Ajuka had made a solid first impression on him. All the same, Harry could tell that even more than Grayfia, this was an immensely powerful being in front of him. Harry couldn't be sure that he would remain an ally forever, so Harry withheld knowledge of the Hallows and what they represented.
"There's a more pressing matter. One of your pieces was defective," Grayfia said. On the way to Ajuka's home, she found the time to dry her clothes off, so that she wasn't giving a free show of the pornstar level curves under her maid uniform. "Rias is not in control of him. In fact, he's in control of her."
"Really?" Ajuka looked to Rias for her confirmation.
"Yes, Beelzebub-sama," Rias said respectfully.
"Now THAT'S new," Ajuka stroked his chin. "Quite the problematic development. If Harry was too powerful for the piece you used, it should have been rejected. Making a king subservient… How interesting!"
"How frightening, you mean," Grayfia said. "Pureblood devils will riot if it is discovered. They will boycott the Evil Pieces altogether."
Ajuka waved his hand. "That's only IF they find out. I'm sure we can whip up an excuse until the internment period passes. Ah!"
For Harry's benefit, Ajuka turned to him and explained what he meant. "Most reincarnated devils need their master's help to control their power. If they run off on their own, that power can corrupt them, turning them into a mindless monster. That's why I created the internment period, during which the King can issue orders to their servant that must be followed. How long it lasts depends on the devils involved, but it's typically anywhere from ten months to ten years. It's fascinating that you've somehow put RIAS into internment, but it will wear off soon enough, by devil standards. And really, what are a few heads of the 72 Pillars going to do that I have to be scared of?"
"Sirzechs will be out for blood," Grayfia said.
Ajuka rapidly looked back at Rias, remembering exactly WHO the devil in question was. His complexion lost a few shades.
"Come in," he said. "I'll get to the bottom of this faster than Azazel fell from heaven!"
Ajuka's home was a palace. There were servants that did basic chores like cleaning and cooking but lots of the rooms were still dirty. Harry saw a few remarkably pretty young devils dusting around stacks of open books and scribbled notes. Apparently, everything was exactly where Ajuka wanted it, so they left the home looking like it belonged to a human hoarder. He knew where to find anything he wanted.
Ajuka took them to a mad scientist's laboratory. There were beakers of various different colored fluids and complicated magical machinery. When they got there, Ajuka directed the others to sit on a couch in the corner.
"Harry, if you'll just follow me and allow me to run some tests…" Ajuka said.
They went through another door that had a spinning mechanism needed to open it, like they were going into a bank vault or a blast shelter.
The two of them walked through, with Ajuka closing the door behind them. Harry looked around on the inside. The place Ajuka had taken him reminded him of a magical tent in that it was bigger on the inside. This secure room had a pure white interior that looked like it went on forever in every direction except behind them, where the door they entered from stood alone, seemingly not even part of a wall on this side.
"It's a pocket space I designed," Ajuka said. "It can be torn through by a sufficient use of power, but you wouldn't believe how useful it is to have room to stretch out while running some of my tests. If I didn't create this, I probably would've blown up my home by now."
Given how big Ajuka's mansion was, that would require an explosion big enough to decimate a town.
"What tests are we running?" Harry asked.
Listening to his gut had become a habit. While he talked, he summoned the Elder Wand. This wasn't unnoticed by Ajuka, who nodded.
"You're an enigma," Ajuka said. "You carry yourself like a being of extreme power. I'd know, since I meet with those regularly, and happen to be one myself. But do you know what? I can't sense any power from you. If I focus, I sense trace amounts of magic, that's all. It's like you're a regular human magician. I think my senses are lying to me."
"Meaning?" Harry asked.
"A quick test," Ajuka said. "Something brief. It will be no trouble, I believe. I'm going to attack you once, and you're going to defend against it."
"What if I die?" Harry asked.
It was a fair question considering Ajuka was, from what Rias whispered on their way here, supposed to be one of the ten strongest beings in the entire world, across any pantheon. All Ajuka did was laugh when Harry asked it.
"My brain is saying that you won't," Ajuka said. "I trust my brain. You could say it's the one thing I believe in the most."
He teleported about half a football field away from Harry. A magic circle appeared in front of his hand. It spun slowly. From it came lightning.
Not exactly lightning. This was pure plasma, funneling out and expanding to the size of a train. It kept getting bigger as it approached Harry. By the time it reached him, the wall of plasma was so enormous that it could've erased a castle the size of Hogwarts.
"Protego," Harry said.
A shield formed around him suffused with his power. The plasma hit that shield.
Two minutes later, Harry and Ajuka walked out of the door.
Rias was on her feet first, running over. "Are you alright? What did he do to you?"
"You know," Harry said, not a hair out of place or any marks on his body. "Ajuka just ran a couple of harmless tests."
Harmless to him, at least. Ajuka was right. His brain really did know best.
"Have you deduced how to fix their relationship?" Grayfia asked.
"What, that? Impossible," Ajuka said. "The evil pieces can't be changed now, even by me. Especially not with someone like Harry."
"What does that mean?" Grayfia asked, her eyes narrowing about the last part.
"It's hard to run tests on powerful devils like Sirzechs, Serafall, or you, Grayfia. Power fights back against attempts to mettle with the body," Ajuka said. "It's one of the reasons that there's supposed to be an upper limit on the evil pieces. You can't stroll up to Ophis, for example, and make her your queen, even if you somehow convinced her. Harry here falls into the same category we do. I can't go running tests on him and expect everything to work out."
Rias's jaw dropped as she heard Ajuka casually throw Harry's name around in the category for other massively powerful beings. Grayfia seemed the most surprised. Rather, she didn't believe Ajuka.
"Are you implying that Harry is somehow a Super Devil?" she asked.
There were only three of those in the whole underworld. One was her husband, the second was Ajuka, and the third was no less formidable.
"I have no idea," Ajuka happily admitted. "Most likely not. I would estimate he's an Ultimate Class Devil like you, but take that with a grain of salt for now. It's an untested hypothesis. I understand your doubt, though. You can't sense magic power from him, can you?"
Grayfia nodded. She was keeping her mouth shut, her lips in a frown.
"It's the same for me," Ajuka said. "I can personally attest that he's powerful, though. The tests I ran proved that much."
Grayfia nodded again. Her neck was stiff while she did it. She was clearly unhappy with how things were turning out. Alternatively, she might've just been surprised. These were all unheard of things occurring around Harry.
She'd have to get used to it. Harry brought unheard of things with him wherever he went.
"Is there anything you CAN do?" Grayfia asked.
Ajuka smiled at her. "Congratulate House Gremory on inducting another monster?"
LINE BREAK
They chose to stay in the Underworld overnight. Well, the Underworld didn't have nights, but they chose to stay for a while anyway. Ajuka loved the idea and gave them guest rooms. It was a good chance for Harry to learn more about the Underworld. He'd need to be brought up to date, since soon he would be spending a lot of time here.
The guest room he'd gotten was more spacious than the entire boys dormitory he had shared with Ron and the other boys in his year. The place reeked of opulence, just like the rest of Ajuka's house. Harry and Fleur were sharing this room. They sat at the table in their room with Rias and Akeno, all three girls drinking tea. Grayfia was speaking to Ajuka privately. Harry assumed she was chewing his ass out for what happened to Rias, but that was none of Harry's business.
While sitting at the table, Harry took out a set of chess pieces.
"Apparently, reincarnated devils get their own Evil Pieces when they reach High Class devil status," Harry said for his wife's benefit. "Ajuka gave me a set out of his own collection."
"'Ow exciting," Fleur smiled at him. "What are you going to do with them?"
"Y'know, I figured that I would save most of them," Harry said. "I wouldn't want to rush into a decision. There's only one thing that I know."
He removed the Queen piece. Standing up, Harry approached Fleur, dropping to one knee after a few steps. He held the Evil Piece out like an engagement ring.
"Will you be my Queen?" Harry asked. "Officially, I mean."
Fleur took it from his hand. "Oui!"
"The Queen Piece is very valuable—" Rias said worriedly.
Akeno stopped her. "Don't be a downer, Buchou. Just enjoy this sweet scene."
Harry knew what Rias was objecting to. Queens were supposed to be valuable resources because it magnified the recipient's power. Frankly, Harry just didn't give a rats ass about that. Even if she wasn't some mythical powerhouse, Fleur was the only girl he formally wanted at his side. Fleur put the evil piece to her heart and absorbed it, taking the leap into devilhood without thinking twice, since that was what it would take to stay at Harry's side.
"Alright," Rias said, crossing her arms. "It is his choice."
"That's the spirit," Akeno said, giggling in a deceptively ladylike way as Harry stood up and kissed Fleur on the lips. "This touching show is really affecting me…"
As soon as Harry returned to his seat, Akeno ducked underneath the table.
Harry leaned back to look at her face, which appeared between his legs.
"What exactly are you planning to do down there?" Harry asked.
"You two are being so sweet. It makes me want to be sweet, too!" Akeno said.
She grabbed the zipper of his pants with her front teeth. Using just her mouth, she managed to get Harry's pants open and get his dick out.
"Impressive," Harry had to say.
"I have lots of special talents," Akeno said, her sultry eyes half closed.
She swallowed Harry's dick and waited for it to harden inside of her mouth, rubbing him with her tongue. As he got bigger, you could hear her start gagging. Harry was pretty sure Akeno had overcome her gag reflex a long time ago… she just thought a little bit of gagging was hot.
Maybe she just knew her king well. Her best friend Rias listened to Akeno's wet gasps. "Ulk! Guk! Guuurk!" With each one, Rias got hornier. Eventually she dived under the table.
"Move over!" she said, barging into the side of Akeno.
The two of them shared Harry's dick, which was fully erect by now. Fleur sipped her tea while looking amused. The girls got more worked up, kissing and licking Harry's meat. At one point, Akeno put his whole nutsack inside her mouth. Rias wiggled her long tongue on Harry's dick, slobbering on it.
Harry was just starting to stroke the girls' heads to thank them for their work when the door was opened. Harry's eyes widened as Grayfia walked in. He hastily took his hands out from under the table.
"Greetings," Grayfia crossed her hands in front of her and lowered her head. "I would like to apologize."
"Err, sure, apology accepted!" Harry said.
Rias and Akeno both heard Grayfia come in. Since the maid cosplayer spoke, they even knew who it was. But instead of slowing down, the girls started sucking him off harder. Rias even began deepthroating him.
Grayfia looked around the room. "I was under the impression that Rias and Akeno would be here."
"They were! They just went out… to the bathroom," Harry said.
Fleur nodded, backing him up. Lessons from her mother in how to act like a proper young lady was the only thing keeping Harry's wife from cracking up out loud.
"Very well. It was you, Harry, whom I was looking to speak with anyway," Grayfia said. "May I take a seat?"
"Go ahead," Harry said quickly, ignoring how his dick had just reached Rias's tonsils.
The girls under the table were doing a remarkable job staying quiet. Even Grayfia was yet to notice anything amiss. Maybe that was because her whole demeanor was somewhat subdued. Her attitude toward Harry seemed to have changed.
"I have realized that your intentions were good," Grayfia said. "You aren't familiar with the politics of pureblood devils. It was unreasonable to expect you to act according to them."
"I don't know devil culture, but the place I come from also has people who call themselves purebloods," Harry said. "I didn't get along with most of them. Things like arranged marriages were a big part of why. It's not right to make that choice for someone else."
Grayfia didn't address what he was saying. Most likely, she disagreed but didn't want to cause an argument. "Either way, pureblood devils care an enormous amount about these things. We are having less children with every generation and losing more of the original families. A lot of devils were deeply excited about Rias's upcoming marriage."
Rias herself looked deeply excited about Harry's dick, which was making her pretty little throat expand. She wiggled her hips while trying to fit every last nanometer of Harry's penis in her big pouty lips. Akeno cheered her on by putting her big bulging breasts on Rias's back and rubbing Rias's shoulders in a massaging pattern.
"What you're saying is that because I ruined that marriage, devils are going to want a piece of me. Is that it?" Harry asked.
"Not only you," Grayfia said. "They will try to ruin Rias's life as well."
"No, they won't," Harry said. "Although they can try."
It was implicit what he meant: he would protect Rias from everything. Even if he was a new devil, he had Ajuka Beelzebub's seal of approval. His words couldn't be taken lightly.
Rias was excited by hearing his words, so confident and protective of her. She started pumping her head on his dick. Akeno also noticed the change and whispered teasing words into her best friend's ear.
"That's why I'm here," Grayfia said. "I would like to make a bet. Or a contract, if you prefer to call it that. Protect Rias from any kind of harm, even political forms of it. They will not attack her outright, so they might attack her reputation, or those around her. Even her peerage might be targeted. Can you handle that?"
"I would've done it without making a deal." Harry crossed his arms. It was hard to look tough while Grayfia's sister in law was slurping his schlong like a champ. "If you're calling it a contract, there must be some kind of payment you're offering, though."
"I'll personally serve you for a day," Grayfia said. "It's the only way to make up for the disrespect I've shown you. If you can prove that you were in control of the situation by navigating the fallout, you will have me as a maid for a full 24 hours."
It was a weird offer. Harry didn't even NEED a maid. He couldn't deny Grayfia got on his nerves a little bit today, though, with the way she nagged him. Having the ability to make her comprehensively apologize sounded appetizing.
Given that there was no downside—he would've accepted with no conditions offered—Harry didn't feel uneasy saying: "Deal."
"It's agreed then," Grayfia nodded, a magic circle appearing above her. "The deal is set."
A tattoo appeared on her wrist. An identical one appeared on Harry. The tattoos glowed pink and then faded to be invisible. Grayfia stood up.
"Give my regards to Rias when you see her," Grayfia said. "I've been away from my king for too long. Goodbye, Harry Potter." She looked at Fleur, noticing that Fleur had also become a devil, and nodded at her too. "Goodbye, Miss Delacour."
Grayfia left the room, her maid outfit swishing around her. Even though it totally shrouded her figure, Harry couldn't help but remember the curves that had been visible when she was doused.
Rias was still throwing her head up and down his dick. Maybe because Harry had been thinking about Grayfia's killer body, he came. It hit Rias's throat and some came out of her nose. Her face was messy when he took it off his dick, streaky with spit and semen.
"Consider that my "regards"," Harry said, quoting Grayfia.
Akeno laughed. He thought that she might take a turn the way that Rias had, but instead Akeno crawled out from under the table, pulling Rias out with her. Akeno did add an extra sway to her fat ass, Harry noticed, trying to entice him; something helped by the fact that when she crawled, he could see right up her skirt to the lacy black panties underneath it.
Rias unsteadily got to her feet while Akeno stood up more confidently. She smiled in a sultry way. It was her normal smile for her, she was just that much of a natural seductress.
"If everything is taken care of with Grayfia, don't you think you should meet the peerage you promised to protect?" Akeno asked.
Harry had almost forgotten. Rias had other servants, along with him and Akeno. It wasn't a full peerage, but there were at least a few others. Akeno was right, he should meet his new allies.
"Sounds like a plan," Harry said. "Although, Rias should probably clean up first."
It would hurt her image as their king to show up covered in the cum of her newest "servant".
While Akeno giggled in a ladylike way, Rias blushingly excused herself to take a shower.
