Staring blankly at her own blessing info, Shinobu was dumbfounded.
"So this is the secret behind how Lady Kikyo and the others can easily slay demons... The blessing of a god, huh..."
A while later...
Lynn finished reincarnating all the talented people from the Demon Slayer world into his Familia.
As expected, they all turned out to be low-class devils.
Except for Mitsuri and Shinobu, everyone else was just an ordinary devil.
Nezuko got a skill called [Hinokami Kagura] — the Dance of the Fire God.
As the shrine maiden of a Devil God, she awakened a skill tied to the Fire God concept.
Honestly? Hard to judge.
Jokes aside, Lynn knew it was just related to Sun Breathing.
With that, the Demon Slayer world's invasion progress had officially broken past the 80% mark.
At the same time, the inner space of the "Devil's Pieces" underwent another change.
Lynn raised an eyebrow and opened his panel.
His level still showed as Maou-Class (Devil King Level).
The feedback from a bunch of low-class devils was like tossing a stone into the ocean—no waves, no ripples.
Even though the displayed level hadn't changed, Lynn was pretty sure his actual strength had already gone beyond the Maou-Class.
With the feedback from higher-level devils and his Familia leveling up, his power was constantly growing.
Even if low-class devils didn't offer him much growth now, once they reached mid-class, they'd still provide feedback.
Over time, Lynn felt like he was already brushing against the limit of the Maou-Class.
Basically what you'd call a "Super Devil."
After checking his own status, Lynn entered the space world of his "Devil's Pieces."
As usual, the constellation lolis swarmed around him while he checked the positions of the new Demon Slayer world Familia pieces.
A new skill resembling the "Gastrea Genome Codex (Factor Genome)" slowly emerged.
"So every time I invade a world, I get a new skill?"
Lynn raised an eyebrow, a little surprised.
But then he wondered—
"Why didn't I get anything from the Apocalypse World? Was it not worthy?"
Shaking his head, Lynn turned his attention to the new skill.
[Hinokami Kagura]
•Obtains the "Sun" power
•Judgment of the Sun (Condenses a thousand years of faith into a single sun-infused slash that ignores all defenses)

"The Sun, huh..."
Lynn's eyes lit up. He extended a finger and focused his magic power.
Humm—
A wisp of searing-hot magic floated at his fingertip.
Rubbing his chin, Lynn muttered, "Does this mean I have anti-vampire properties now?"
Looking up, he saw a faint, fragile red glow drifting in the starry space like a candle in the wind.
"So this counts as the Sun?"
The corner of Lynn's mouth twitched.
Still, everything was moving in a good direction.
The Black Bullet world had given him the power of the Zodiac.
Now the Demon Slayer world had given him the power of the Sun.
A strange glint flickered in Lynn's eyes as he looked at the starry sky of the Devil's Piece.
Sooner or later, he would turn the space within the "Devil's Pieces" into something truly complete.
Lynn lingered a little longer, staring at that so-called "Sun".
Then glanced over at the Zodiac.
"Tsk."
"Each Zodiac sign has its own little loli guardian, but the Sun has nothing? Totally unacceptable. I gotta stuff someone in there."
Returning his consciousness from the "Devil's Pieces" space, Lynn found that the new members of his Familia had all changed into shrine maiden outfits.
"What's this?"
Raising an eyebrow, he glanced at Kikyo with a questioning look.
Kikyo smiled gently and explained, "The new shrine maidens are preparing to perform a Kagura Dance for Lord Lynn, hoping to earn your favor."
"Oh?"
Lynn's interest was piqued.
Sitting upright on his throne, his voice gained a trace of majesty.
"Then... let me see what you've got."
As his words fell, Shinobu and the others exchanged glances before moving into action.
Nezuko, dressed in a white top and crimson hakama, held bells in her hands. When she lightly shook her wrists, the bells chimed in layers, and colorful ribbons floated gracefully with her movements.
Mitsuri wore a sleeveless shrine maiden outfit that highlighted her strength. Holding a sword, her movements were powerful and bold. The arc her blade carved through the air felt like it could cut down all misfortune.
The others weren't to be outdone either—each showing off their own dances, all flowing beautifully before Lynn's eyes.
As Lynn's closest shrine maiden, Kikyo's Kagura Dance skills were on another level entirely.
In order to please Lynn even more, she had even created her own unique dance.
The sacred Rod Dance!
Holding a sacred rod, Kikyo's expression was solemn and dignified as she carefully measured its length, offering the highest purification ritual.
Seeing Kikyo's performance, the newly recruited shrine maidens were all stunned.
Blushing furiously, they secretly watched her every move, studying in detail the proper steps of how to please their god.
Kanae's face reddened slightly as she pressed her lips together, her hands nervously twining together...
But...
There was a trace of determination that flashed across her eyes.
Serving a god — that was a shrine maiden's duty!
She took a deep breath, stepped forward a few paces, and spoke with clear resolve.
"Miss Kikyo... please, teach me this Dance!"
Kikyo, who was still focused on her purification ceremony, lifted her gaze in slight surprise.
But when it came to earnest, willing-to-learn shrine maidens, she never kept her knowledge to herself.
With a faint smile, Kikyo stepped aside, handing over the sacred rod and began to instruct her patiently.
"The Sacred rod… stands tall even in chaos."
"As long as your prayers come from a place of true devotion, the god will naturally bestow divine power upon you… and watch over you."
Shinobu and Kanae listened intently, soaking up Kikyo's words like a sponge — completely immersed in learning every detail.

Meanwhile, in the main world.
Kuoh Academy
Koneko stared nervously at Kuroka, who had suddenly appeared before her.
"Nee-san... why are you here again?"
After all, Kuroka was an SS-ranked criminal wanted by the Underworld.
If the club president saw her hanging around, things could get seriously messy.
But more importantly...
It would definitely cause trouble for senpai.
Kuroka was lying lazily on a tree branch, completely relaxed.
"Obviously… I'm here to pick up my little sister and bring her home to warm the bed with me~"
Koneko twitched slightly, feeling weirdly conflicted.
Why... does this sound oddly familiar?
Wait a sec...
Hasn't Nee-san already become senpai's servant?
Where exactly is she trying to take me?
It hasn't even been a full day since she joined, and she's already planning to betray senpai??
Thinking of this, Koneko's expression turned serious.
But just as she was about to speak, Kuroka's golden, cat-like eyes glanced over her shoulder — staring straight past her.
"Oh? The Crimson-Haired Ruin Princess is here too? No point in hiding anymore, nya~"
