Lynn had always been welcoming to everyone.
Of course.
It was selective.
If Haruno didn't meet the qualifications to become a member of the Peerage, Lynn would never accept her.
He didn't even bother being polite when it came to the Yukinoshita family's assets.
They were his Peerage's resources now anyway.
Lynn planned to assign the Yukinoshita family the responsibility of managing the sale of resources from the worlds under his control.
The Yukinoshita family also needed to diversify its development.
After all, each world's resources had their own unique traits.
A short while later.
After wrapping up some miscellaneous matters, Lynn looked at Haruno. "Alright, take it off."
Haruno wasn't surprised.
She'd already heard about it from Yukino.
She was fully prepared and began undressing without hesitation.
Then, turning her back to him, she revealed it.
Lynn pressed the condensed Evil Piece onto her back.
The cold sensation made Haruno shiver slightly. She was both nervous and expectant.
The next moment, the power in her body surged.
Her Blessing information appeared on her back.

Innate Abilities
[Thousand-Layer Game]
When formulating long-term plans or strategic layouts, her thinking speed and logical clarity increase in proportion to the complexity.
If the target has psychological vulnerabilities or unresolved internal conflicts, the success rate of verbal manipulation increases significantly, potentially allowing her to subtly influence decisions.
This ability is less effective against purely instinct-driven individuals but provides a suppressive effect against high-IQ targets.
[Disguise Devil]
Perfect Mask – Can alter appearance, voice, and even fragments of memory to create an ultra-realistic illusion.
Devil Transformation – Activates a personality-masking mode.

Another special devil.
Lynn rubbed his chin.
Seems like both Yukinoshita sisters are high-quality...
But—
Despite being special devils, Haruno's abilities weren't particularly powerful.
She wasn't the combat type.
Coincidentally, she was well-suited for handling the family's finances.
After copying her Blessing info, Lynn said, "Alright."
Hearing that, Haruno put her clothes back on and received her Blessing information.
After Yukino explained the Blessing system to her, Haruno's eyes sparkled with intrigue.
A surprise, huh?
And—
She murmured softly, "Disguise Devil..."
Was this ability telling her... that she lives behind a mask?
A disguised devil?
Yukino perked up her ears.
Looks like her sister was also reincarnated as a special devil.
But...
"Disguise…"
Yukino thought of her own skill.
Looks like deception and disguise-type skills were ineffective on her, right?
She felt a little proud, quietly pleased.
A small victory.
After Haruno adapted to her newfound powers and Blessing, Lynn began discussing her future duties.
"Finance?"
Haruno was briefly stunned, but then quickly nodded. "Understood!"
It wasn't much different from what she did before, just developing the Peerage's business.
Besides...
Her skills weren't suited for combat anyway.
She was slightly envious of Yukino.
Thinking of Yukino's ice-based powers, and then looking at her own [Disguise Devil]...
Haruno couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
Still...
[Disguise Devil] fit her perfectly.
When it came to business development within human society, she'd have far more tools at her disposal.
"The Peerage currently controls resources from two worlds. When the time comes, your Yukinoshita company will be handling their distribution."
"Perhaps…"
Lynn rested his chin on his hand, his red eyes watching her. "The Yukinoshita family should consider opening a new department."
"Two..."
"World resources?"
Haruno was dumbfounded.
What…?
Why couldn't she wrap her head around it?
Seeing her confused expression, Lynn briefly explained the situation with the Zombie World and the Black Bullet World.
Upon hearing this, Haruno's eyelids twitched.
Was the Peerage she joined just that powerful?
Not only did they control two entire worlds, they even wiped out humanity in one of them?!
Only now did she grasp the true might of the Devil Peerage.
They'd destroy humanity if things didn't go their way.
If that's not being a devil, then what is?
Of course, after understanding the situation, Haruno felt the Peerage was still being too reserved.
The humans in the Black Bullet World should've been erased down to the soul!
After fully comprehending the state of the two worlds, Haruno immediately proposed various strategies and development plans.
She didn't even want to waste the walls in those worlds!
A true professional!
Listening to her analysis, Lynn nodded. "Alright, I'll leave the rest to you."
Honestly, he didn't quite get it.
He only had a vague grasp of business.
More importantly.
As the master of the Peerage, all he needed to do was live a leisurely life.
"By the way..."
Haruno blinked, asking curiously, "Has Yukino already slept with Master Lynn?"
While saying that, she even made a gesture with her hands.
"S-Sister, sister!!"
Yukino couldn't sit still anymore, bristling like a startled cat!
Mahiru and the others pursed their lips.
This Yukinoshita sister was way too bold and blunt.
"Oh~"
Seeing Yukino's reaction, Haruno suddenly understood, then curled her lips in disdain.
So their mom was right not to place any hopes on Yukino.
She'd already joined the harem, but she was still waiting for Lynn to take the initiative?
She looked around, and her eye twitched.
Just the girls in the Supernatural Investigation Club alone couldn't be scheduled every day.
Not to mention the ones gaining experience in other worlds.
In matters like this, you had to seize the opportunity yourself!
Useless Yukino would never get it.
Besides.
Even if both were members of the Peerage, the closeness between those who've slept with Lynn and those who haven't was clearly different!
Mom really understood Yukino well.
If she couldn't count on her sister, she'd have to step up herself...
For the rise of the Yukinoshita family.
She'd offer her precious first time!
Taking a deep breath, her lovely face suddenly leaned in close to Lynn, voice seductive, "Master Lynn, would you like me to accompany you tonight?"
As she said that, her ears burned red.
But this was who she was.
Some things were better done early.
Delay too long, and you get nothing.
She was decisive!
"S-Sister?"
Yukino was completely stunned.
She had never seen her sister act so assertively.
And.
She was even volunteering herself to the master's bed?
Yukino was still too far from understanding the adult world.
Of course, it wasn't just Yukino who was stunned.
Miko and Mahiru were equally shocked.
This new Peerage member was trying to cut in line as soon as she joined?!
The sky is falling!!
Lynn was also a little surprised by Haruno's directness and initiative.
But—
As always, Lynn never turned down anyone who took the first step.
As long as they were proactive, Lynn was happy to tell them a goodnight story.
"I'm looking forward to tonight."
"You won't be disappointed."
Bang!
Haruno's heart skipped a beat.
The moment Lynn truly accepted her, she felt a bit light-headed.
After all, this was her first time dealing with something like this.
But she still managed to stay composed.
Though, not everyone could remain calm.
He really agreed??
Yukino subconsciously glanced at Miko, her eyes full of doubt.
Didn't they agree to take turns?
Miko silently averted her gaze, not daring to meet Yukino's eyes.
Her little trick had been exposed in less than a week!
The image of a dignified Peerage senpai was starting to collapse...
Competition within the Peerage was truly intense!
Seeing Miko like that, Yukino sighed again.
She'd been taught a harsh lesson on her first day in the Peerage.
Back when Miko was helping her train, she was so gentle...
"Yukino, I'll use your room tonight."
"What?!"
Yukino, still not over the last blow, was struck again by her sister!
H-Her room?
Her sister and Lynn, together...??
The image instantly popped into her mind.
Her sister and Lynn, completely unclothed, on her bed...
Suddenly, Yukino felt her face heating up. Her body trembled slightly.
She blurted out without thinking, "W-What about me?"
"?"
Haruno looked at her strangely. "You'll sleep in the living room, of course..."
"Huh?"
Then Haruno's eyes twitched, and she smiled slyly. "Or..."
"Do you want to join us?"
T-Join them?!!
Yukino's eyes spun like spirals.
---
That night.
Yukinoshita Yukino ultimately slept in the living room.
As for "joining"...
No way!
She pulled the quilt over her face.
But in her ears, the obscene sounds from upstairs continued.
Yukino clutched her legs under the blanket, subconsciously rubbing them together.
Her face was so red, it looked like it might bleed.
"Sister… you're so loud..."
She muttered under her breath.
Why—
"Why did I even come home..."
Wouldn't it have been better to find a hotel?
Why torture herself like this?
Yukino twisted under the quilt, as if ants were crawling all over her.
Itchy...
"Master Lynn, how about this position?"
Upstairs, Haruno's sultry voice rang straight into Yukino's ears.
As if she was doing it on purpose, just to let her hear it.
Yukino panted, eyelids fluttering, before finally dozing off half-asleep.
The next morning.
Yukino woke up with dark circles under her eyes, glaring weakly at Haruno.
"Why aren't you wearing anything?!"
"What's the big deal?"
Haruno didn't care, walking over to the fridge and pulling out two bottles of iced cola.
She was feeling a little hot and needed to cool down.
"Be a good girl~ Go to school now."
"Ah~"
As if remembering something, Haruno blinked at her. "Don't forget to ask for leave from Master Lynn~"
Saying that, Haruno returned upstairs.
Her battle wasn't over yet.
Yukino stood frozen downstairs.
(To be continued.)
