Hearing Senhime, Lynn showed no surprise.
From the moment she followed him to the Underworld, it was clear where her heart leaned. After witnessing everything that had transpired and seeing his overwhelming strength firsthand, the scales in her mind had completely tipped in his favor.
But still…Lynn wanted to make sure.
"You've made up your mind?"
"Yes!" Senhime's gaze was firm.
The Western Lands were just a small corner of the world.
The Dog Yokai (Inu-yokai) were merely a minor race.
At least, from the perspective of those at higher levels of power, that was the reality.
Senhime wanted to see her people rise, to reach heights that even their ancestors had never dreamed of achieving!
And if she followed Lynn...
Maybe—just maybe—she could make it happen!
Her eyes burned with determination at the thought.
Lynn noticed her expression and smirked slightly. "Then..."
"Congratulations, you're now my second pet."
"...Huh?" Senhime blinked in confusion. "Why second?!"
She pouted in dissatisfaction. As royalty among the Dog Yokai, she had always strived to be first in everything!
Lynn's expression turned a bit odd.
Of all things, that's what she cares about? Didn't she hear 'pet'?
Seeing her reaction, he explained the situation regarding his first pet.
When Senhime heard the name Fuse Midori, she immediately huffed. "Ugh, another damn cat!"
The Dog Yokai and Cat Yokai had never gotten along.
Lynn continued explaining his Familia's situation. When she learned that their numbers had already surpassed three million—most of them being young girls—her gaze toward him became... peculiar.
"...Loli freak?"
Lynn wanted to deny it, but…
Three million lolis?
Yeah, there was no way to argue against it.
With a calm smile, he reached out and rubbed her exposed belly without hesitation.
Senhime flinched, her face flushing red, but she didn't move away from his touch.
As he "disciplined" her, Lynn casually explained the process of becoming part of his Familia.
Including the Devil reincarnation ritual and all that.
Senhime's golden eyes widened in shock. "Lynn-sama… this isn't some kind of perverted ritual, is it?"
Suspicion flickered in her gaze.
Lynn shrugged. "You just need to expose your back."
"Oh..."
Wait, hold on— That's still embarrassing!!!
"If I reincarnate as a Devil, will I lose my Dog Yokai bloodline?"
She had learned a lot about Devils in the Underworld.
Becoming a reincarnated Devil wasn't something she was against.
But…
Her Dog Yokai heritage was important to her.
"Don't worry."
Lynn gently stroked her head as he reassured her. "Reincarnating as a Devil only removes negative conditions. Any beneficial bloodlines will coexist with your Devil traits."
Just like how Akeno retained her Fallen Angel blood even after reincarnating as a Devil.
In essence, all reincarnated Devils from other races were hybrid Devils.
"I see..." Senhime breathed a sigh of relief. As she continued listening to Lynn's explanation, her eyes gradually sparkled with excitement, her heart pounding with anticipation!
Special-type Devils. The Blessing System.
Unlocking potential. Enhancing abilities. Evolving into higher tiers…
So much power!
This was undoubtedly the key to surpassing her current limits!!!
Senhime's breathing grew heavy.
She had made the right bet!
With Lynn-sama's blessing, she could definitely lead the Dog Yokai to new heights!!
"Lynn-sama, please grant me your blessing!"
Lynn rubbed his chin. "You sure you wanna do it here?"
Senhime paused, then shook her head, glancing around.
The sudden rush of excitement immediately vanished.
At any moment, a random Devil could show up.
She definitely didn't want anyone other than Lynn seeing her transformation!
Lynn chuckled at her reaction.
"Let's head somewhere more private~."
A rift, just wide enough for a person to pass through, appeared in front of them.
Through it, they could see a lush, vibrant landscape.
The gateway connecting the Underworld to the human world had opened.
Without hesitation, Lynn took Senhime with him and left the Underworld.

Musashi Province - Kaede's village
"Where is this?" Senhime asked, curiosity flashing in her eyes.
"Think of it as a temporary base for my Familia."
When he had opened the portal, Lynn had conveniently adjusted the coordinates.
He had returned directly to Kaede's village.
Boom! Boom!
Just as they were chatting, the ground of Village trembled.
Midoriko flapped her wings, shouting loudly into the village, "Everyone! I've lured in a big one!"
Behind her, a towering figure, like a moving mountain, stomped forward with earth-shaking footsteps.
"Damn woman! How dare you humiliate me like this!!"
His furious roar was so loud that it made their eardrums ache!
His muscles bulged, veins protruding all over his body!
Six arms flailed wildly, stirring up gusts of wind!
"Pfft—"
Utaha couldn't hold back her laughter.
The Tsuchigumo's ears twitched, his rage growing even more intense!
The sunlight gleamed down, making his now-bald head shine brilliantly!
That woman!
That damned woman!!
How dare she mess with his beautiful hair!!
"You despicable woman!!"
His steps quickened, shaking the very ground!
The villagers watched in shock, pausing their work at the sight.
"He's huge!"
"Just his footsteps alone feel like an earthquake!"
Despite their amazement, not a single one of them moved.
Above the Village, a radiant barrier shimmered briefly.
With both Kikyo and Midoriko reinforcing it, the village was now as solid as a fortress.
A mere large yokai like this didn't stand a chance against its defenses.
The villagers even had the leisure to chat amongst themselves.
"How long do you think this guy will last?"
"Fifteen minutes?"
"He looks like a powerful yokai, so maybe he'll hold out for a while."
"The shrine maidens serving our Lord are terrifyingly strong!"
The Village's once peaceful and predictable life had taken a turn ever since Lynn's Familia arrived.
Senhime lay sprawled in Lynn's arms, her dog-like eyes wide in astonishment. "Tsuchigumo!"
That was a famous Great Yokai!
Even the powerful Western Dog Yokai clan didn't want to mess with him.
"Looks like they've gotten pretty used to fighting already..."
Lynn observed Utaha and the others, nodding approvingly.
"Are all of them part of Lord Lynn's Familia?"
Hearing Lynn's words, Senhime, who now had some understanding of the Blessing System, had a realization flash in her eyes.
Were they using the Tsuchigumo to increase their stats?
Using a Great Yokai as a sharpening stone?
Her eyelid twitched at the thought, then shifted her gaze to Midoriko.
This woman gave her an incredibly dangerous feeling.
But with her around, things should be fine.
"Finally, an opponent worth killing!"
Busujima Saeko licked the corner of her lips, her eyes practically glowing red as she charged forward!
"Tch!"
Tendo Kisara refused to be outdone, shouting, "He's mine!"
Then, like a phantom, she dashed toward the Tsuchigumo!
The Tsuchigumo glanced at the small insects rushing toward him with disdain.
But in the next moment, shock flashed across his eyes.
Slash!
His flesh split open, and bright red blood splattered onto the ground, instantly corroding the grass and flowers around it!
The Tsuchigumo clutched his chest in pain, a massive wound now carved into him!
Humiliated and enraged, he couldn't believe he had been wounded by these tiny pests!
"I'M GONNA CRUSH EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU!!"
With a furious roar, he slammed all six arms into the ground, causing spiderweb-like cracks to spread toward the village's entrance.
Midoriko swiftly countered, forming three talismans with a flick of her wrist!
Golden chains materialized out of thin air, wrapping around the Tsuchigumo's massive legs!
"Arghhh!!"
The Tsuchigumo howled in fury!
"Utaha."
Midoriko's clear voice rang out.
"Got it!"
Utaha flipped open her Devil's Grimoire. "Lightning Strike!"
Crack!!
As soon as she spoke, a thick pillar of lightning crashed down from the sky, frying the Tsuchigumo black!
Just as he spat out a mouthful of black smoke, a white arrow came spinning toward him.
Whoosh!
"Sacred Arrow!"
Still reeling from the lightning strike, the Tsuchigumo barely had time to react before the arrow pierced his knee!
Boom!
With a loud crash, he dropped to one knee!
"Arghhhhhh!"
The arrow, infused with purifying spiritual energy, burned him painfully, making him let out a tortured scream.
That cry was like a signal.
Shiina Mahiru spread her angelic wings, a volley of light and dark feathers raining down upon the Tsuchigumo!
The others unleashed their own attacks as well, launching a coordinated and merciless assault!
With Midoriko's timely support, it wasn't long before—Boom!—the Tsuchigumo collapsed, lifeless.
Clap! Clap!
Lynn applauded, drawing everyone's attention back to him.
"Not bad, our Familia is really starting to shape up."
Senhime was dumbstruck!
A legendary Great Yokai… taken down so easily?
She glanced around at Midoriko and the others, her body instinctively trembling.
Lynn-sama's Familia was terrifying!
Wait… she was about to join them too, wasn't she?
Then it's fine!
Senhime immediately perked up again.
"Master!"
Utaha and the others ran excitedly to Lynn's side—only to notice Senhime nestled in his arms.
Utaha leaned in closer, a strange expression on her face. "And this is...?"
"Your new pet?"
As she spoke, she reached out, wanting to touch it.
But Senhime bared her teeth at her in warning!
A noble princess would only allow Lord Lynn to touch her.
"Tch, stingy."
Utaha muttered in dissatisfaction.
Senhime snorted and turned her head away.
Seeing this, Lynn casually placed his hand on her head and ruffled her hair, leaving her completely defenseless.
"Kikyo, arrange a quiet room."
Kikyo glanced at Senhime, a knowing look flashing in her eyes.
"Understood, Lord Lynn."
— — —
Inside Kikyo's hut
Kaede curiously looked at the small white dog in Lynn's arms, her hands itching to pet it.
But she was quickly pulled away by Kikyo.
Outside the hut, Kaede looked up at Kikyo and asked curiously, "Big sis, is that Lord Brother-in-law's pet? It's so cute!"
B-Brother-in-law?
Kikyo's cheeks turned slightly red, but she didn't refute it. Instead, she smiled and patted Kaede's head gently.
Her little sister really knew how to talk.
A hint of melancholy flashed through Kikyo's eyes.
Would Kaede be qualified to become Lord Lynn's shrine maiden?
---
Senhime muttered, "Tsk! Not that good."
Lynn patted her head. "Alright, stop being picky."
Hearing this, Senhime hesitated for a moment before releasing a silvery moonlight glow.
A noble and elegant woman appeared in the hut.
Her long white hair cascaded to the floor, and she wore a light purple kimono. Her golden eyes carried a cold allure, but there was an unnatural blush on her face.
Senhime glanced at Lynn, an indescribable look in her eyes, before quickly lowering her gaze.
Lynn had already explained the process of the reincarnation ritual to her.
Even though she was mentally prepared…It was still incredibly embarrassing…
Her heart pounded slightly faster.
Since she had made her decision, there was no point in hesitating anymore.
Turning her back to him, she slowly slipped off her kimono, revealing her smooth, fair skin.
Half-exposed, her shoulders tinged pink. Her cold voice trembled slightly. "Please… grant me your blessing."
Seeing this, Lynn didn't hesitate. He condensed a Devil's Piece and pressed it against her back.
Senhime's breathing grew heavier.
Something within her body was changing.
Her yokai blood boiled!
Her golden eyes turned crimson!
And just like that—
The Devil's Piece merged into her body without any resistance.
At the same time, a familiar notification sounded in Lynn's mind.
[Ding! You have acquired Familia member "Senhime."]
[Ding! Your Familia member "Senhime" has reincarnated as a Special-Type Devil.]
A new status screen appeared.

Lynn stared at Senhime's skills in amazement.
He didn't expect this little pup to have so many abilities.
She even had two high-tier development abilities!
Her potential was incredible!
Lynn's gaze landed on [Eclipse Devil], especially the "Demonization" ability.
"Divine Authority…"
"Pseudo?"
Lynn's expression turned odd.
Had she already reached the realm of Authority so soon?
Opening his own status screen, he glanced at his empty Authority section.
…Well.
That "pseudo" tag really says it all. Guess it's not the real deal yet.

How cool, a new pet acquired with supreme class power, now he has two supreme classes in his entourage and if Grayfia enters, it is most likely that he will reach Maou Class or Super Devil
