"Huff… huff…"
After using the Devil Tome to transfer several more batches of Cursed Children, Utaha panted lightly.
She looked at Lynn with seductive eyes. "Master~ Please replenish my magic~"
Lynn rewarded her generously.
In truth, Lynn could've handled the transfer of over 4,000 Cursed Children on his own.
It would just take more time due to how scattered they were.
That's why, by acting separately with Utaha, their efficiency was significantly higher.
Whenever Utaha was nearly drained, she would stay in the shelter and wait for Lynn to return and restore her magic.
However…
After doing this several times in a row, Utaha was noticeably overdrawn.
It wasn't a matter of stamina or magic.
It was her mental state.
She was mentally exhausted.
Lynn noticed this as well.
After replenishing her magic, he said, "Alright, Utaha. Leave the rest to me."
"No!"
Utaha shook her head firmly.
"I can still keep going!"
Lynn frowned. "I don't want you pushing yourself."
It would only slow things down a little, no big deal.
Naturally, he didn't want any of his Peerage members suffering because of him.
Even so, Utaha still shook her head. "I really can still…"
"Just…"
She pursed her lips and hesitated.
Lynn narrowed his eyes, already guessing the reason.
Finally, Utaha bit her lip lightly, leaned into Lynn's arms, tilted her chin slightly, and exhaled sweetly.
"Master~"
"Could you… maybe increase the dosage~"
"Dosage increase?"
Lynn narrowed his eyes at Utaha and noticed her pale neck had already flushed red.
…
Utaha left Lynn's arms, a light mist covering her red eyes.
Energy restored. Fully recharged!
Looking at the rejuvenated Utaha, Lynn frowned slightly in thought.
He opened his status panel and checked the [Recovery Devil] skill.
"…It doesn't say anything about mental recovery?"
Lynn was puzzled.
Skills acquired from reincarnated Special-Class Devils were supposed to be a level higher in nature.
So it would be reasonable for his [Recovery Devil] to restore mental fatigue as well.
But…
Seeing Utaha's current state, Lynn just shook his head helplessly.
Whatever—just consider it effective.
In terms of "quality," his body fluids were certainly more potent than his saliva.
At worst, he could just give her a shot directly.
Well…
She'd probably be thrilled about that.
…
They worked almost until midnight.
Over 4,000 Cursed Children had finally been transferred.
"Phew…"
Utaha wiped the sweat from her forehead and let out a deep breath.
It's done…
She pressed her temples and frowned.
Her head was pounding like it was splitting apart.
She had pushed herself too hard…
But…
She glanced at Lynn's smile and couldn't help smiling herself.
It was all worth it.
Lynn praised, "Thanks to you, Utaha. Otherwise, I probably would've been busy until dawn."
Utaha shook her head and forced a smile.
…She was totally showing off.
Seeing her like this, Lynn thought for a moment and said, "I'll give you a reward tonight."
He decided to give her a high-quality energy injection.
Reward!
Utaha's eyes lit up instantly.
The headache disappeared immediately.
Her gaze sparkled with excitement as she asked, "Anything I want?"
Lynn looked at her in surprise.
Why did it feel like her battery was recharged just from hearing that?
He hummed in response, curious to hear what kind of reward she wanted.
Even though the energy injection was inevitable, if Utaha had a specific reward in mind, he wouldn't be stingy.
After getting Lynn's reply, Utaha blushed.
She hesitated for a bit, then took a deep breath. "Master, can you… rest at our home tonight?"
Her lashes trembled slightly, and her gaze was a little shy.
"Our home?"
Lynn paused for a second. He had several residences, he wasn't sure which one she meant.
"That…"
Utaha's voice was soft as a whisper. "I mean… our home…"
Lynn suddenly understood, then gave her a strange look.
Isn't that just his house?
He had built it up with hard-earned effort!
Even though it was a bit small now, it held a lot of sentimental value.
And now this woman with just one sentence was claiming half of it!
Still, Lynn understood what she meant and nodded easily.
He wanted to see what little scheme Utaha was cooking up.
Seeing that Lynn agreed, Utaha was overjoyed, though slightly panicked.
"Then… I'll go back first!"
Utaha quickly left the Black Bullet World.
The bunny girl outfit she bought that day, she finally had an excuse to wear it!
Watching her flustered exit, Saeko couldn't help but chuckle.
Lynn had too many women now. If she didn't fight for her chances, she'd never get a turn.
Watching them Saeko subconsciously touched her belly.
Ahh~ I want to get pregnant with Master's devil baby.

Back at the shelter.
More than 4,000 Cursed Children were gathered in one place.
They looked nervous and timid.
However, under the guidance of the first batch of reincarnated cursed children, none of them panicked.
They stood quietly, waiting for arrangements.
"…It's really a sight to behold."
As a member of Lynn's Peerage, Kisara came by to watch.
Seeing the densely packed Cursed Children, she couldn't help but sigh in amazement.
Lynn also felt a headache coming on.
Back when he was focused solely on saving the Cursed Children, he hadn't realized just how complicated the follow-up would be.
Gathering them was just the first step.
Next would be reincarnation into the Peerage…
And accommodation, food, clothing, education.
Those were all major issues to address later.
But right now, the biggest problem was space.
The shelter was already too small…
Lynn began to consider relocating a group to the Zombie World.
"Saeko, check out the Zombie World tomorrow and see if there's a place that can house tens of thousands. Clear it out."
"Yes, Master!"
Saeko nodded without hesitation.
Lynn calculated mentally.
Tens of thousands should be enough for now.
Besides, the strength of the Zombies wasn't particularly high.
The reincarnated devil Cursed Children could handle them without much danger, so there was no real safety concern.
After settling the children, Lynn didn't plan to start the reincarnation ceremony immediately.
After a whole day of work, even Yuuko looked mentally exhausted.
The Cursed Children had also spent the entire day in anxiety and fear, leaving them emotionally drained.
Not to mention, it was late at night, and most of them could barely keep their eyes open.
Let's wait until tomorrow.

Main World.
Lynn returned to his home and pushed open the door to Utaha's bedroom.
