Fia, become my servant

She and Lind had practically grown up together.

Now, seeing all this...

She felt strangely irritated.

"Rias, why didn't you let me know before coming?"

Grayfia took a deep breath and steadied her emotions.

"Wasn't this something you asked me to do?"

Rias rolled her eyes. "Lind's enrollment at Kuoh Academy has been arranged."

"He can report there any time in the next little while."

Understanding dawned on Lind's face.

Since devils were short on numbers...

Many devil families, once their children reached a certain level of strength...

Would send them to the human world to recruit servants and build their own following.

"I almost forgot about that."

Grayfia remembered and turned to him. "Lind, I mentioned this to you before."

"You haven't changed your mind, have you?"

"Of course not."

Lind nodded.

He would have been lying if he said he wasn't curious about this mashup of a world.

He wanted to know just how crazy things had gotten.

"All right, here's your transfer application."

Rias took out a sheet of paper and handed it to Lind, saying:

"You can drop by my club when you get there."

"That way, we can look out for each other."

After explaining a few things, Rias left. Before leaving, she gave him her number and told him to ask her if there was anything he didn't understand.

After saving the number, Lind turned to her. "Big sister Fia, now that Rias has left, can we continue?"

Grayfia's expression froze.

Was he really this aggressive now?

I don't think I can handle this.

Even though she had already accepted Lind in her heart, things were moving far too quickly.

"Oh, right, I think I still have something to take care of."

Leaving those words behind, Grayfia hurried outside.

Chapter 2: Fia, become my servant

Watching her flee, Lind shook his head with a smile.

This was the first time he had seen Grayfia like that.

"But how should I get stronger?"

Rubbing his chin, Lind sank into thought.

When it came to getting stronger...

There were indeed plenty of useful things he could take advantage of.

But since this was a mashup world...

Who knew whether the plot had changed?

"Come to think of it, do I really not have a cheat?"

The instant he finished speaking, Lind heard a ding.

Then...

A translucent virtual panel slowly appeared.

[Lind Lucifugus]

[Race: Progenitor Devil]

[Level: L30]

[Authority: Progenitor Devil Transformation]

[Skills: Devil Contract, Demon Summoning.]

"This system panel sure is bare-bones."

Lind grumbled, but his eyes remained fixed on the information displayed on it.

The next moment...

Some information naturally surfaced in his mind.

Devil Contract was a means of recruiting servants, with effects similar to the Underworld's Devil Pieces.

But there was a difference.

Devil Contract could not only reincarnate members of any race as devils, but also grant them a leveling panel.

Depending on their aptitudes, some servants would even gain special skills.

Moreover, he could grow stronger by killing monsters to level up and receiving power feedback from his servants.

Demon Summoning, meanwhile, allowed him to distribute contracts across all worlds.

As long as someone summoned him, Lind could cross between worlds.

As for Progenitor Devil Transformation...

It was a transformation technique that temporarily released a portion of the power within his bloodline.

Aside from that...

Even without undergoing Progenitor Devil Transformation, his bodily fluids were treasures to devils.

In a cultivation world, he would be an unrivaled cultivation vessel.

At that moment, Lind's expression grew serious.

It seemed he would have to be more careful from now on.

He had no desire to be locked up as some woman's plaything.

"But getting stronger just by recruiting servants is pretty nice."

Lind rubbed his chin, a gleam flashing through his eyes.

"The only problem is that my servants need a certain level of aptitude."

"Otherwise, they won't be able to withstand the changes caused by Devil Contract."

At that thought, Lind's eyes lit up.

He seemed to have the perfect candidate.

"Fia, become my Familiar."

Grayfia silently looked at Lind, who had come to find her.

He's being so direct that I don't know how to respond.

She smiled helplessly. "Little Lind, I don't mind becoming your Familiar."

"But the Devil Pieces I applied for on your behalf haven't arrived yet. You'll have to wait a little."

"I don't need Devil Pieces. You only have to agree, Fia."

Grayfia blinked, looking rather bewildered.

Lind looked at the flashing Devil Contract skill on the system panel.

This was also a passive effect of the skill.

It could detect people with the aptitude to become his Familiars.

Just as he had expected...

Grayfia met the requirements perfectly.

"Are you sure you're not joking?"

Coming back to her senses, Grayfia instinctively asked, "Have you developed another reincarnation technique?"

Lind shook his head. "I suppose you could say I awakened some sort of ability."

A look of understanding appeared on Grayfia's face.

The devils of the Underworld came in all sorts of varieties.

Many possessed unique demonic energy or even special powers.

But this was the first time she had heard of something with effects similar to Devil Pieces.

"All right, I agree."

Grayfia asked curiously, "What are you going to do?"

"Take off your outer clothes first."

Seeing Grayfia begin to flush, Lind hurriedly added an explanation.

"I need to use my blood to inscribe the Devil Contract. Your outer clothes would get in the way."

Honestly, even he thought this process was rather bizarre.

But on second thought...

Teasing his future Familiar a little seemed pretty nice, too.

"All right."

Grayfia took a deep breath. Her fingers trembled slightly, but she did not hesitate as she slowly unfastened her buttons.

Looking at Grayfia clutching her clothes in both hands, her ears burning red, Lind felt his heart begin to race.

If he hadn't needed to perform the ritual, he probably wouldn't have been able to restrain himself.

"Fia, I'm starting."

Lind took a few steps forward and raised his index finger. Traces of pale golden blood seeped out.

The sight surprised him.

It seemed that after his awakening...

His body had already changed.

Even his blood was different.

Despite those thoughts, Lind's movements did not stop. He pressed his bloodstained finger directly against her smooth skin.

The instant the blood touched her, it gave off a faint glow.

Brilliant golden light rapidly traced a heart-shaped pattern across her skin.

Countless mysterious characters flashed within the light and vanished.

Grayfia seemed to hear something shatter inside her body.

The world had changed before her eyes.

It was as though the restraints on her body had vanished completely.

At the same time!
