DxD: Building A Demon Clan From Scratch.-Chapter 43: Upgrades
After testing Mahiru's abilities, she asked Saeko to help her gain some combat experience.
Once they finished.
Mahiru had no intention of returning home.
With no one waiting for her, there was nothing worth going back to.
She looked at Lynn seriously and declared, "Since I've become part of Mr. Lynn's family, I must take responsibility for taking care of him!"
"So, leave the housework and cooking to me!"
Rolling up her sleeves, Mahiru was filled with determination.
Such overwhelming feminine energy…
Utaha and Miko exchanged subtle glances.
Miko started reflecting on herself.
Have I really not been taking care of my master properly?
I should ask my mother to teach me how to cook when I go back!
As for Utaha.
She had taken care of Lynn before when they lived together.
But that wasn't the issue.
The issue was that she was never allowed in the kitchen.
Lynn had completely banned her from cooking.
Recalling those unpleasant memories, Utaha suddenly felt depressed and discouraged.
…
"Saeko, time for your upgrade."
"Yes, Master."
Saeko removed her clothes, lay on the bed, and awaited her level-up.
Lynn pricked his finger and let a drop of blood fall onto her Blessings, revealing her stats.

Development Abilities…?
Lynn was surprised.
He didn't expect that upgrading Blessings would also grant Development Abilities, similar to the Upgrade System in DanMachi.
Her devil rank had also increased from Low-Class to Mid-Class.
And…
Lynn narrowed his eyes.
Even her [Blade Devil] ability had undergone a minor change.
Blade Body?
He didn't dwell on it for now, there was something more important.
Because of this level-up…
It wasn't just Saeko who received an upgrade.
As her Master, Lynn also received direct feedback from her breakthrough.
At that moment—
His rank broke through from High-Class Devil to Ultimate-Class Devil.
System notifications flooded his mind.
---
[Ding! Your Peerage member 'Busujima Saeko' has been promoted to Mid-Class Devil!]
[Ding! Your strength has increased!]
[Ding! Your rank has advanced!]
[Ding! Your skill 'Evil Pieces' has undergone a minor transformation!]
---
Lynn's gaze locked onto the last notification.
His Evil Pieces skill changed?
This was his core ability, so he wasn't sure whether this change was good or bad.
He immediately opened his status panel to check.

"The rank did change…"
His Ultimate-Class Devil rank was now officially solidified.
With five Peerage members and Saeko's upgrade, his strength had advanced once again.
In less than a month, he had been promoted twice.
If others found out, they'd be insanely jealous.
Especially someone like Rias, who had been stuck at High-Class Devil for a long time.
The breakthrough in power was exhilarating.
But the most important thing right now was.
[Evil Pieces].
Lynn clicked on it to investigate.
Immediately.
The world around him shifted.
He suddenly found himself standing in an endless starry sky.
His eyes widened slightly, confusion setting in.
"What is this…?"
He rubbed his chin, scanning his surroundings.
Then.
He noticed five chess pieces floating in orbit around him.
"…?"
Lynn frowned in confusion.
"What does this mean?"
The five pieces likely represented Utaha, Miko, Saeko, Shizuka, and Mahiru.
And he—
As the master of the Peerage, stood at the center.
So…
"This entire starry sky represents my Peerage?"
A long silence followed.
Then, Lynn exhaled.
"…After all that, I just got a fancy new visual?"
