Another special devil joins the collection.
Lynn chuckled softly. He really didn't expect that besides Enma Ai, he'd get another nice bonus from this whole mess.
After copying down Kukuri's Blessing Info, she hurriedly dressed herself again.
Lynn gave her a glance and casually said, "Relax. I'm not into flat-chested kids."
Kukuri froze. Her purple eyes practically overflowed with resentment, but in the end, she didn't dare say anything — forced to keep up her polite smile.
Even Enma Ai couldn't help but glance down at herself, pursing her lips in silence.
Meanwhile, Iwanaga Kotoko absentmindedly cupped the empty air in front of her chest… lost in thought.
And just like that, a single sentence from Lynn utterly broke the mental defenses of three girls in one go.
Watching this happen, Ryougetsu Senhime snorted in amusement and proudly lifted her chin.
Hmph. At least in human form, her figure was far better than these three combined!
Lynn, naturally, didn't care at all about their reactions. Instead, he handed Kukuri back her Blessing Info.
"This is my new power...?" Kukuri's eyes sparkled as she stared at her own skill list.
Before this, other than monitoring Enma Ai, she didn't really have any noteworthy abilities.
But now, after receiving Lynn's blessing... she felt like she was even more spider-like than an actual spider!
Iwanaga Kotoko sneaked a curious peek but didn't pry too much — it was someone else's private information, after all.
Once Kukuri finished reading, Lynn spoke up."Alright, let's move. We're heading deeper into Hell."
"Yes, Lynn-sama. Allow me to guide you," Kukuri immediately responded.

Meanwhile, in the depths of Hell...
A small spider with three glaring eyes was staring coldly at a group of freshly arrived souls.
It spat out spider silk, effortlessly binding up a struggling soul.
Fwoooosh—!
Black flames ignited, burning away the sins of the trapped soul.
But then— the spider's movements suddenly froze.
"The connection... with my avatar… was cut off?"
Its three eyes narrowed suspiciously. "Dead? Or..."
It wasn't sure. But...
"Enma Ai's task has gone wrong!"
Without hesitation, the Three-Eyed Spider dropped what it was doing and immediately prepared to head toward the borderlands of Hell to check on Enma Ai's situation.
But just as it was about to move—
WHOOSH!!
A violent wind suddenly swept through Hell, making the flames of the underworld roar wildly.
The surrounding red spider lilies trembled, rustling noisily.
And then— everything before the spider suddenly darkened.
A towering figure had appeared right in front of it, completely blocking the faint light of the underworld.
That figure was none other than Lynn — having crossed countless layers of Hell to arrive at its deepest parts. Of course, taking the girls with him.
"Too fast... way too fast..." Iwanaga Kotoko was dizzy, her stomach churning like she might hurl any second.
"Who are you!?" The Three-Eyed Spider's eyes narrowed sharply, all eight legs instantly retreating backward. With a sharp shout, its massive body began to shift and transform.
"Uwahh!" Iwanaga Kotoko snapped out of her daze and shrieked."Holy crap, that's a huge spider—urk!!"
Lynn casually tossed her to the side like dead weight and then raised his hand.
Snap.
Thick strands of spider silk shot out from his fingertips.
Lynn was now like Spider-Man.
BOOM!!
A terrifying surge of power blasted through the silk, slamming into the spider's giant body and sending it flying!
"Bastard!" The Three-Eyed Spider roared in fury, black flames instantly racing along its web to retaliate.
"Intruder! Feel the purging flames of Hell that burn away all sin!!"
Lynn simply lifted his gaze, his thoughts stirring.
And then — whoosh!
An even more terrifying Karma Flames erupted from him, racing along the spider silk like a tidal wave!
The Three-Eyed Spider was visibly shaken.
This guy... he's using the same move?!
"Whoa— You can control Karma Flames as well?!"
But it didn't have time to process anything else.
Lynn's Karma Flames utterly crushed its own flames, merging together and surging toward it like a monstrous inferno.
Panicking, the Three-Eyed Spider desperately snapped its own silk and flung its massive body away.
BOOM!!
Its enormous body smashed hard into the ground.
And in the next instant— the surrounding hellish magma surged like an unstoppable tide, responding to its will.
The Three-Eyed Spider scrambled back up, its blood-red eyes blazing with fury.
FWOOSH—!
A massive wave of magma roared toward Lynn like a tsunami.
Seeing this, Kukuri quickly warned, "Lynn-sama, that's the Three-Eyed Spider — the current manager of Hell! It has the authority to manipulate the very environment of the underworld!"
Hearing this, the Three-Eyed Spider's gaze snapped toward Kukuri, bellowing in rage, "You traitorous fool! How dare you betray me!"
With a single thought, it attempted to detonate Kukuri's avatar.
But— nothing happened.
"…Huh?"
The Three-Eyed Spider's expression twisted.
What's going on?!
Then it suddenly remembered — that connection it lost earlier…
It must've been that man! He did something!!
Kukuri smiled sweetly at the spider — but her voice was cold and full of malice, "Sorry, big spider, but… I just can't bear to see Ai suffer any longer."
Hearing that, Enma Ai's dark eyes quietly turned to Kukuri, staring at her. Kukuri's cheeks flushed slightly under the gaze, awkwardly turning her head away.
Across from them—
The Three-Eyed Spider let out an earth-shaking roar of fury!
All these years… all its hard work poured into building this Hell…
And it got outplayed by its own avatar?!
It was this close — this close to becoming the true ruler of Hell!
"Four hundred years of effort… ruined in a single day!!"
"I absolutely—!!"
But before it could finish—
RUMBLE—!!
The entire layer of Hell began to shake violently. The spider, completely losing it, was mobilizing all of this domain's power — summoning waves upon waves of molten magma to drown Lynn!
It was literally trying to crush him with the full might of Hell itself!
"UNFORGIVABLE!!"
---
"Ahhhhhh!"
As an ordinary human, Iwanaga Kotoko screamed, nearly losing her balance from the violent tremors.
Thankfully, Enma Ai silently reached out and steadied her.
Then the three of them just stood there, staring at the apocalyptic scene unfolding before them.
None of them said a word — too overwhelmed by the sheer scale of it all.
"…This spider… is terrifying."
Enma Ai couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart.
It was exactly because of that overwhelming power gap… that she had been forced to obediently fulfill her contract all this time.
Even Iwanaga Kotoko was visibly nervous now.
She had known that any incident involving Hell wasn't going to be simple… but this?
This was on another level!
What now…?
She was starting to panic — but when her eyes fell on Lynn's calm, unshaken figure standing in front of her…
For some reason, she felt strangely reassured.
Lynn's expression remained flat, indifferent.
As the administrator of this layer of Hell, combining its control over the environment with its own power, the Three-Eyed Spider was indeed pretty strong.
But…
Still far from enough.
Lynn's lips moved slightly.
"Ice Devil— 'Frozen Mirror' Domain."
The moment his voice fell—
It felt like a sigh echoed throughout all of Hell.
And in the next second—
Crack— Crack—
The entire layer of Hell around them froze over in an instant!
The shaking stopped. The air turned bitterly cold. Frost and freezing mist spread out in every direction.
The sudden change left Iwanaga Kotoko and the others completely dumbfounded... and then—
Shiver—
All three of them shuddered together.
Kotoko blinked a few times in disbelief, then instinctively hugged herself and rubbed her arms as her voice trembled.
"S-So freaking cold…"
Shivering non-stop, she cautiously glanced around her surroundings.
Everything — absolutely everything — within sight had turned into a frozen world of ice-blue.
Except for the small area around them that had somehow avoided being frozen.
It felt like, just in the blink of an eye… they had been transported to a completely different world.
Right in front of Lynn, the hideous Three-Eyed Spider had been completely frozen solid — trapped along with the surging sea of lava that had once filled this part of Hell.
