"Grayfia, huh?"
Lynn's expression turned a bit strange.
What was going on?
He used a devil piece to activate a link to Senhime's location.
A virtual screen popped up in front of him.
And sure enough — a woman with long silver hair, a curvy figure, and a cold, expressionless face appeared.
Yep… Definitely Grayfia.
But the background behind her wasn't the Underworld.
Wait—Grayfia left the Underworld and came here?!
Lynn: "..."

Meanwhile.
Erina followed Hayasaka, wanting to ask a dozen questions but not sure where to start. Besides, she was kind of nervous.
"You're the heiress of the Nakiri family, right?"
"Eh?"
Erina blinked, caught off guard.
"You know who I am, Miss Hayasaka?"
Not an unreasonable question.
Most people here had only seen Erina, but didn't really seem to know who she was.
But Hayasaka had called her "the Nakiri heiress," which clearly meant she knew more.
"The top culinary family in the country? Yeah, hard not to know the name."
Hayasaka's voice was completely flat.
She said the words, but her tone showed zero interest or emotion.
Clearly, she didn't think much of the Nakiris.
But Erina, being Erina, didn't pick up on that. She scratched her head, a little embarrassed. "Haha… well, we're not that amazing."
Her tone was modest, but her face clearly said, "Yeah, we're kinda a big deal."
Hisako, walking behind her, facepalmed.
Lady Erina, she was just being polite.
A few moments later—
Erina worked up the nerve to ask, "Um about Lynn… is he really…"
"A devil?"
"Or is that just an online alias or something?"
She'd wanted to ask this back in the living room, but didn't get the chance.
And honestly… Talking to someone with supernatural powers made her feel a little intimidated.
Before Hayasaka could answer, Hisako chimed in, surprised, "A devil?"
What devil?
Wasn't this place supposed to be some kind of external branch of a supernatural organization?
That had been her first thought when she saw Lynn.
And Kaguya's icy aura had kind of confirmed it.It would make sense if the members here had powers.
But now there's a devil involved?
Erina looked away awkwardly and muttered, "Did you forget who I sent those pictures to?"
Hisako froze. "…The Devil guy?"
"But—" She frowned. "I thought that was just some guy you met online."
"What do you mean 'some guy I met online'?!"
Erina raised her voice a little, clearly flustered. "That was Lynn!"
"???"
Hisako stared at her, then said in disbelief, "You were in an online relationship with Lynn?!"
After Lynn saved Tokyo and displayed godlike powers, the entire city—no, the entire country's elite—had gone wild trying to get close to him.
Even the top brass were scratching their heads over how to approach him.
And here was Erina already in contact with him? And apparently on very friendly terms?
Otherwise, why would she have sent him those photos?
Hisako felt like she just solved a mystery.
Lady Erina… such foresight!!
She looked at Erina with admiration.
Erina: "???"
"Hisako… are you misunderstanding something here?"
Several minutes (and a lot of explaining) later . . . . .
Hisako finally understood the full picture.
And immediately gave Erina a weird look.
Wait… So Erina had sent those kinds of pictures to a stranger without even confirming who he was first?!
Yikes.
Hisako realized maybe she didn't know her lady as well as she thought.
Still, this whole "Lynn is a devil" thing… that couldn't be true, right?
No way someone that handsome could be an actual devil.
Plus, would a devil really go to school with humans?
The more she thought about it, the more convinced she was—
It had to just be a username, or some weird sense of humor on Lynn's part.
On the other side, Erina noticed Hisako's expression and started to feel seriously uncomfortable.
Why was she looking at her like that?
Erina bit her lip, her cheeks burning with embarrassment.
But there was nothing she could say to explain it that wouldn't make it worse.
She turned away and stayed quiet.
Thankfully, Hayasaka's voice cut through the awkward silence, rescuing her from the tension.
"I, Kaguya, and everyone in this villa"
Hayasaka stopped walking, glancing at the people passing by—the other residents of the estate.
Because of the staff shortage, Lynn had brought in reinforcements from other worlds.
"…Devils."
