A Few Days Later.
At Lynn's apartment, after updating his Familia members' blessings—
Kasumigaoka Utaha frowned as she checked her stats, then glanced at Mahiru's.
Something felt very, very off.
Extremely off.
"Mahiru."
Utaha's tone was deep. "Your recent stat growth is a little..."
"Ridiculous!"
She grabbed Busujima Saeko's blessing details and compared them side by side with Mahiru's. "You're almost catching up to this crazy woman?!"
"And also..."
Utaha looked at Mahiru's Obsession Corridor ability, her expression conflicted.
"What exactly is 'Lynn-san, more, more, I need more!!' supposed to mean?!"
Mahiru hurriedly covered her face, her voice barely a whisper. "U-Utaha..."
"P-Please don't say it anymore..."
She tried to run but then walked slowly again. After all, the angel's body... was already overflowing!

"Hmm..."
"Kikyo, how's the progress in the Demon Slayer world?"
After updating her Blessing, Lynn casually asked about the situation in the Demon Slayer World.
"Everything is going smoothly, Lynn-sama."
Kikyo's usually cold eyes softened as she looked at Lynn and spoke gently, "We have completely replaced the belief in gods of that era."
"As for the remaining demons, they're insignificant."
"However…"
A glint flashed in Kikyo's dark eyes. "I plan to publicly judge Muzan Kibutsuji in front of the Devil Cult's main temple!"
"With this, our Familia's influence in that world will reach its peak!"
"Sounds good. Do as you see fit."
Lynn approved her plan, then asked, "Have you figured out how to deal with Muzan?"
Kikyo pursed her lips and sighed. "His strength isn't really a problem, and his regeneration isn't a concern either."
Both her purification abilities were perfect counters.
"However…"
"He's just way too good at hiding!"
"Finding someone like him isn't difficult for a shrine maiden."
"The problem is where he's hiding. That's a bit tricky."
Kikyo looked slightly troubled.
Lynn immediately understood. "The Infinity Castle, huh…"
Yeah, that makes sense.
Right now, no one in the Familia has spatial abilities.
Only Higurashi Kagome could probably force open an entry point.
But…Given how paranoid Muzan is, there's no way he'd let an unfamiliar face into the Infinity Castle.
Lynn smirked and pulled out a Devil's Contract flier.
"Let's see if our dear Demon King wants some help from a Devil."
Kikyo's eyes lit up at the sight of it.
If they could get the contract into the Infinity Castle, wouldn't that mean they could freely enter?
And knowing Muzan, he might not let people in easily, but would he be able to resist his curiosity about something mysterious?
"I understand, Lynn!"
Taking the Devil's Contract, Kikyo felt that the day they conquered the Demon Slayer world wasn't far off.
After thinking for a moment, she added, "Lord Lynn, the Devil Cult in that world has also gathered some potential Familia members."
"When do you plan to visit? I'm also free most of the time now."
Her cheeks flushed slightly as she asked.
Ever since the Cult was established, as a shrine maiden, she hadn't properly served Lynn yet.
She felt terribly irresponsible!
Lynn thought for a moment before replying, "No rush, I'll come after you guys clear that world."
"…Understood!"
Rather than being disappointed, Kikyo seemed even more motivated!
After updating the Blessings, the Familia members stuck around instead of leaving.
They had been grinding experience points non-stop—surely, they deserved some time to relax.
Kasumigaoka Utaha spotted Shiina Mashiro and teased, "Is this a new member of the Familia?"
Mashiro's expression didn't change. She responded in her usual monotone, "No."
Utaha blinked in confusion. "Huh?"
"Oh my, looks like you haven't been feeding her well," Utaha smirked at Lynn.
"Utaha, don't bully the newbie," Kanoe Yuuko giggled as she floated behind Lynn and hugged his head against her chest.
"Master~ I wore my bra today, just as you wanted."
Ever since they left the old school building, Lynn had insisted she wear one.
Even though Yuuko found it uncomfortable, she still listened to him.
Lynn enjoyed the head massage she was giving him and stroked his chin. "Technically speaking, Mashiro isn't really a Familia member yet."
"…What?!"
The entire apartment fell silent in shock.
Even Yuuko momentarily stopped nuzzling him in surprise.
Utaha's eyes widened in disbelief. "Master, you mean… you still haven't added her to your harem?"
Has he changed?!
No way!
Absolutely not!
Mashiro tilted her head in confusion, then glanced around at all the other women in the room before nodding as if she understood. "Harem! Manga!"
Lynn shot Utaha a knowing look. "Thanks for the reminder."
Then, he turned to Mashiro and extended his hand. "Mashiro, would you like to join my harem?"
Mashiro was silent for a moment before she spoke three words.
"Harem King Lynn."
She placed her hand in Lynn's.
But then she shook her head.
Her action left Lynn and the others confused.
Mashiro's eyes were serious. "Lynn… is my master."
Understanding dawned on them all at once.
"So..."
"She doesn't want to be in the harem… she wants to be a pet?!"
"Another weird girl."
Lynn chuckled. "Then… strip."
"Strip?"
Mashiro tilted her head again, looked at the other girls, and nodded as if realizing something.
Taking off clothes? That's nothing new to her!
Not knowing what Lynn wanted, but trusting him anyway…
In a few swift movements, she was completely undressed.
"…You didn't have to strip that much," Utaha muttered, her expression complicated.
This airheaded girl sure had a natural talent for charming men.
Lynn, seeing that she was ready, pressed the Devil's Piece onto her.
A soft glow enveloped Mashiro.
Her eyes widened slightly as she felt power flow into her body.
She recalled seeing Lynn use magic before.
"I'm… becoming a…"
"…A magician?"
The light faded, revealing her Blessing information.

Lynn stroked his chin, looking at her abilities.
Then, he snapped his fingers.
Buzz—
Color drained from the room as everything turned into black and white sketches.
"Whoa!?"
Utaha looked at herself in shock. "I… turned into a manga character?!"
The others were equally astonished.
Only Mashiro, the original user, remained puzzled.
"Manga…"
Looking out the window, Lynn noticed his domain extended beyond the stated 50 meters.
"Wonder if it'll evolve further."
He withdrew the domain and recorded Mashiro's Blessing.
Then—
A guest arrived.
Lynn smirked and teleported ahead, appearing right in front of Minamiya Natsuki, who was preparing a space-manipulation spell.
Natsuki paused, narrowing her eyes. "That commotion just now… was your doing, wasn't it?"
"Oh? What a rare visitor."
Natsuki huffed. "You think I came here for fun?"
Just seeing Lynn, she knew that disturbance had to be his fault.
"Anyway, I come here to warn you—the church's holy swords were recently stolen."
"As a Devil, you better keep a low profile!"
