LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 36: Peerage
“Kamiya Tenraku! Tenraku! Tenraku!”
A huge cheer erupted from the entire venue, and the wave-like voice called Tenraku’s name over and over again.
This is a world where strength is respected. In the past, Tenraku was a trash that couldn’t awaken his Bloodline and he couldn’t even inherit his surname so no one paid any attention to him and they just didn’t take his existence to their heart. At most, he was just a topic of laughter after dinner.
But now it’s different!
Tenraku has proved to them with facts that he is no longer the same waste that he once was, he has already possessed a powerful force, and has the qualifications to gain their respect and recognition!
From now on, no one will call Tenraku a waste, because if Tenraku is considered a waste, then they don’t know how much waste is in this world.
The former Underworld Waste Duo has become history, and perhaps they will be called the Miracle of Underworld from tomorrow.
Whether it is the one from the House of Bael or the one from the Phenex family, they are truly Miracles!
“Did it, he finally did it…”
Akeno on the high platform was already in tears, but there was a smile from the heart on those tearful cheeks.
Her Tenraku finally did it!
Rias next to her also had a complex expression on her face and she couldn’t return to her senses for a long time. It was hard to imagine that the proud figure currently standing on the platform was the ordinary and small boy who couldn’t even protect the people he cherished and had to ask her for help.
He may really be a miracle…
Listening to the waves of praise and cheers, Tenraku on the stage was extremely calm and his eyes fell to the distant sky——
With countless pains and efforts, he finally took this step.
But this is not enough!
He will become stronger! He will go further! He will stand taller!
One day, he wants this day to be marked as a day where he would not be forgotten by anyone again! He wants this land! He wants the Gods and Monsters to worship for him!
No one knows what arrogant ambition is hidden in the heart of this proud yet peaceful figure at this time!!!
“Onii-chan, so, so good… Tenraku Onii-chan!”
Ravel was so excited that she was a little incoherent.
“Thank you, Ravel.”
Touching the girl’s forehead, Tenraku smiled.
“Yes, but, Riser Onii-chan…” Thinking of something, Ravel looked sad again.
The fainted Riser has been carried away to get treatment, but she still has some concerns. Her older brother lost the duel in front of their father, the Great Satan Lucifer, and so many Underworld nobles. Riser must have been very shocked.
However, instead of seeing Tenraku Onii-chan defeated by Riser Onii-chan, Ravel still prefers to see the ending that has happened now!
“Don’t worry, he is a descendant of Phenex, there will be nothing wrong with him. If you are still worrying then go take care of him.”
Tenraku comforted.
“Ok……”
Responding softly, Ravel took the hem of her dress and was about to leave, but after taking a few steps, she stopped suddenly:
“Tenraku Onii-chan, you looked the most handsome and strong today!”
Her cheeks flushed, and after speaking, the girl fled and ran away.
For a moment, Tenraku chuckled and shook his head. This girl…
“Your Highness Tenraku, this is Devil’s Chess Piece.”
Holding the delicate piece, a waiter spoke to him in a respectful and authentic tone.
After the ancient war, many of the 72-Pillar of the Devil family that was the backbone of the Underworld have been cut off.
In order to enhance Devil’s combat power and restore the power of Underworld, a set of Magic Chess System was developed by the current Great Satan Beezlebub using Chess Pieces as a template, namely, they are the so-called Devil Pieces or Evil Pieces.
Devil Pieces can reincarnate creatures of other races into Devil, and grant corresponding power with the attribute of the piece they were reincarnated with. Even in the entire Underworld, there are not many who have Evil Pieces. Only the Upper-Class and High-Class Devil are qualified to get it as it is very precious!
Nodding towards the waiter, Tenraku turned his gaze to the Yubelluna and others on the side.
“Karlamine, would you like to be my Knight and be in my Peerage?”
When he reached Karlamine’s body, Tenraku asked.
“My sword is the sword of the Lord, Karlamine will follow you to death!”
They had agreed upon this a long time ago, and Karlamine did not hesitate to offer her Knight’s position to Tenraku on one knee.
“Isabela, Xuelan, Burent, Siris… how about you?”
Tenraku said again, chanting the names of the girls.
“I’m willing.”
Without any objections, the girls also made their own choices.
They themselves are pieces cultivated by the Phenex family, and they have been convinced by Tenraku in the previous duel. Compared to the proud Lord Riser, they are willing to choose the gentler, handsome, and stronger Tenraku as their master.
Tenraku nodded, except for Yubelluna and the twin girls, almost everyone has agreed.
“You are Ile and Nel, you are just as cute as Ravel was when she was a kid.”
Tenraku gently rubbed the foreheads of the two little girls with a smile on his face.
Without the slightest resistance, the two girls also showed a look of surprise and said:
“Master Tenraku, do you know us too?”
They have heard about Tenraku from Mihae and witnessed the duel between Tenraku and Riser. The two sisters now have a fanatical adoration of Tenraku.
“Ah, of course, I know you, are you willing to be in my Peerage?”
Tenraku smiled and replied.
In his previous life, when he was watching High School DxD anime, the Chainsaw welding Loli who chased after Hyoudou while slashing and hacking left a very deep impression on Tenraku.
“We are willing!”
Two pairs of big eyes flashed with brilliance, and as expected, the two sisters also agreed to join his peerage.
With his mouth raised slightly, Tenraku turned his gaze to the last figure:
“Yubelluna, how about you?”
Her heart trembled and Yubelluna sighed slightly and said:
“You have achieved this level, do I still have the right to refuse you.”
“Yubelluna is willing to surrender and follow you till my death, Master.”
Putting down the magic staff in her hand, Yubelluna also landed on one knee, and then lowered her proud head in front of Tenraku.
Yubelluna had once said that she would only follow the real strong, and apparently, the current Tenraku is Strong in her eyes!
Looking at the Women surrendering in front of him, Tenraku felt a strange feeling in his heart.
Although it is a little strange, Tenraku is very clear that this is the pleasure of conquering!
It makes people sink, but it also makes people obsessed with it…
Without speaking any nonsense, Tenraku gave the women corresponding pieces according to their respective characteristics and concluded a contract with them.
However, the total number of Yubelluna and girls is only fourteen, and one piece of [Bishop] remains.
Tenraku looked to Tosca on one side and said:
“Tosca, would you like to be in my Peerage too?”
“Yes, Master Tenraku.”
Tosca agreed without the slightest objection, she has been following Tenraku for a long time. Even without the contract and piece, Tenraku has long become her home and her master!
Melting the piece into her body, the girl became Tenraku [Bishop].
At this point, Tenraku’s Peerage is full and they are all here!

Looking at Tenraku’s huge and luxurious Peerage group, countless male Devils in the venue showed envy and jealousy.
What kind of Peerage group is this, it is clearly a Harem!
Tenraku naturally didn’t know what the envious male Devils were thinking, but even if he knew it, he wouldn’t care.
The foundation of the Phenex family is not comparable to everyone!
“My God, Tenraku-Sama, can I also be your Peerage?”
When he walked to Tenraku’s side, Gasper looked expectantly weak.
Taking a look at this kid who is still so unlucky no matter how he teaches, Tenraku shook his head:
“No, there are no more pieces.”
“Woo, why is this…”
Deeply shocked, Gasper suddenly felt like he was abandoned by Lord Tenraku, and his pitiful appearance immediately attracted more ardent eyes…
