"Gravity Devil, huh"Lynn rubbed his chin, deep in thought.
"Master! Master!" Suddenly, Luna's voice rang in his mind. "My weight power just increased again!"
Hearing that, Lynn narrowed his eyes.
So the Gravity Devil skill synced with Cancer?
That would mean every time Hitagi levels up, Luna as Cancer gains more weight?
His eyes lit up.
He'd been racking his brain trying to find a way to increase "weight" as a concept Now? No need. He just had to focus on helping Hitagi grow stronger.
And more than that
Gravity DevilJust hearing the name, you could tell it had crazy potential.
Sure, the skills didn't seem too impressive right now,but that was only because she was still a Low-class Devil.
If she leveled up enoughWouldn't it be possible to control planetary gravity?
Lynn's face showed pure anticipation.
A little while later
Hitagi had her clothes back on. She stared at the Blessing info floating in front of her with a complicated expression.
"They turned my habits into skills?"
She pulled out a pen and narrowed her eyes. She could clearly feel how much more control she had over it now. A strange urge to throw it flickered through her mind.
She forcibly suppressed that weird impulse and adjusted her skirt.
"4D Skirt," she muttered. Should she put her hands inside?
She glanced at Lynn, then at Senhime and Himari. After a moment of hesitation, she just shrugged.
Well, there were no outsiders here anyway.
ThenHer hand froze after entering her skirt. Her eyes widened in surprise.
"What is it?" Lynn asked, curious.
"I think I touched another space?"
Hitagi didn't sound entirely sure. Then she looked at Lynn, a mischievous glint flashing in her eyes.
"Wanna help me check, Daddy~?"
Lynn raised an eyebrow but didn't say no. His hand slipped right insmooth as butter.
"Eh?" Hitagi blinked.
Didn't even hesitate?!
Lynn, on the other hand, looked completely seriouslike he was conducting some major scientific experiment.
After a while, he pulled his hand back.
"There's definitely another space in there," he nodded. "And it's pretty big."
Hitagi quickly pulled her skirt down, relieved.
That whole position earlier was just way too awkward!
Lynn was still rubbing his chin, musing out loud.
"Not just that Your skirt seems to be in an unobservable state now?"
"Excuse me?" Hitagi looked confused. She lifted her skirt to take a peek
And was met with pitch-black darkness, like a literal black hole.
Her mouth twitched. "Don't tell me I have to stay like this forever?"
"Not necessarily," Lynn said, thinking. "Maybe if you take the skirt off, it resets?"
Since it's called 4D Skirt, it must be tied to the skirt itself, right?
Without hesitation, Hitagi stripped it off. Underneath, she revealed her patterned white panties.
"Yup, it's back to normal!" She let out a sigh of relief.
Lynn gave her an appreciative glance and nodded.
"Even though I've already seen them once before, I gotta say that design really suits you."
Hitagi rolled her eyes, then muttered under her breath as she put her skirt back on: "Perverted Daddy."
Lynn raised an eyebrow. "Getting quite used to calling me that, huh?"
Her ears turned a faint red, and she quickly turned her attention back to her Blessing Info.
"Gravity Devil"
She stared at the words with a complicated gaze.
Unavoidably, her thoughts drifted back to the crab.
She hadn't expected that experience would lead her to awaken such a power
But she wasn't about to reject it. She wasn't stupid.
Gravity DevilJust the name alone hinted at ridiculous power.
With that in mind, she slowly raised her hand.
Fwoosh
A wave of pressure exploded outward from her!
[Gravity Paradox] activated!
The entire apartment was suddenly blanketed in a field of gravity!
Hitagi's eyes focused. She lifted her hand toward a Coke bottle on the table, and gave a little tug with her fingers.
As if pulled by some invisible force, the Coke bottle turned into a red blur and flew straight into her hand!
But that wasn't allPapers, towels, the remote, even some bookseverything around her started flying toward her like crazy!
The living room instantly turned into a warzone!
Thenclap!
A crisp sound echoed as the Coke landed perfectly in her hand.
Hitagi blinked, then glanced down at the pile of random objects now covering the floor.
She stared at the Coke in her hand, dazed.
"So that's Gravity Paradox?"
Lynn's mouth twitched. "Nah, it's Universal Pull!"
Wait a sec where's the Shinra Tensei (Almighty Push) to go with it? Will she awaken the Rinnegan next?
Then
Senjougahara Hitagi tried another move: Mass Deception.
She first adjusted her own body's density.
Lightweight modeactivated.
With just a thought, Hitagi's entire body started floating into the airlike she'd completely lost her weight!
Even more extreme than before!
She floated for a few seconds, then softly whispered, "Heavyweight."
The moment the words left her mouthboom!
Her body crashed down like a meteor, smashing straight through the floor!
And she kept fallingno sign of slowing down!
Lynn's eyelid twitched when he saw this, and he quickly used [Gravity Devil] along with the Cancer constellation's weight concept to cancel her heavyweight mode.
Then, with a wave of his hand, he activated Gravity Paradox and pulled her back up.
"Huh?"
A second later
Hitagi landed steadily in Lynn's arms, blinking in surprise.
Lynn casually used magic to repair the busted floor, then looked at her with a deadpan expression.
"Were you planning on demolishing the apartment or something?"
Hitagi's face flushed bright red, and she buried her head into his chest, mumbling softly, "Sorry I'm still not that good at it."
As she spoke, she couldn't help but take a small sniff of Lynn's scent.
Her ears turned red almost instantly.
Off to the side, Senhime narrowed her golden eyes.
That spot... was supposed to be hers!
That move... she totally copied her!
After a while, the sky darkened.
Hitagi had finally calmed down.
She lifted her head a little and glanced out the window, frowning slightly.
It's already night? That fast?
It felt like she'd only been hugging him for a few moments
She wasn't too happy with how quickly time passed.
Was it time to go home?
Just thinking about it left a subtle emptiness in her heart.
That house was just hers, all alone
Suddenly, out of the corner of her eye, she noticed a bunch of feminine products lying around. Her eyes lit up.
A thought popped into her mind.
Still sitting in Lynn's lap, she looked up at him with hopeful blue eyes. "Can I live here too?"
Lynn paused for a moment, then replied, "You can"
"But"
He shrugged, "I don't think there are any extra rooms left."
"Huh?"
Hitagi blinked in confusion.
She bit her lip, turned her head to the side, and said as casually as she could, "If there's really no room, I wouldn't mind staying in your room."
Daughters sleeping with their dadsit's not that weird, right?
Just imagining lying in Lynn's bed, wrapped in his scent Hitagi couldn't help but feel a guilty kind of excitement.
"My room's full too, y'know."
Her little fantasy was shattered on the spot.
She turned her head back stiffly, disbelief written all over her face. "Full?"
"Hmph."
Senhime looked up and gave her a smug glance. "You think you're the only one trying to share Lord Lynn's room? Get in line."
Hitagi's eye twitched.
Waitthis competition is actually that fierce?!
Lynn rubbed his chin. "Well Mahiru's place next door still has some space."
"Then I'll move in next door!" Hitagi agreed without hesitation.
As long as she could stay close to Lynnthat was enough.
—
Once Hitagi's stay was sorted out, Lynn thought to himself: Yeah, the apartment really doesn't have enough space anymore.
With that in mind, he sent a message to Yukinoshita Haruno.
"Need a new house?"
Haruno replied almost instantly, "Got it! I'll handle it right away!"
"But"
She licked her lips, voice dripping with playful seduction. "Can I be the first to break in Lord Lynn's new bedroom?"
"My Shapeshifter Devil abilities are finally strong enough to handle all your 'attacks' now, after all."
Lynn's eyebrow lifted at that. "Oh really? Then I guess I'll have to give it a thorough inspection."
...
Tokyo, in a certain caf.
"Yes!" Yukinoshita Haruno pumped her fist, eyes sparkling with excitement.
Then her expression turned sharp.
The competition between Familia members was clearly heating up.
Just relying on her Devil abilities might not be enough anymore.
She fell into deep thought.
Then suddenly snapped her head up, a glint in her eye.
"How could I forget that?!"
Slapping her forehead, she quickly pulled out her phone and sent a message to her little sister.
"Yukinowanna power up a bit?"
Yukino: "???"

Two Days Later
Haruno worked fast.
Pretty much the moment Lynn gave the order, she had everything ready to go.
Contracts signed, ownership transferred, renovations done, furniture boughtthe whole setup finished in just two days.
—
At the foot of a mountain
Lynn looked up, raising an eyebrow. "You bought an entire mountain?"
Haruno smiled faintly. "One-and-done solution, right?"
The Familia's only going to grow bigger from here.
Buying a mountain now means they can just keep building upwards once space runs out.
Simple and efficient.
Of course, to get her hands on a mountain this fast, Haruno may have used a little bit of Devil power
Just a tiny bit.
"Not bad."
Lynn was impressed by the foresight.
No need to worry about moving again.
Soon, Lynn and Haruno arrived halfway up the mountain.
A sprawling European-style estate came into view.
The main building looked like a castle from the West.
Marble-paved paths led everywhere. Right in front, a massive fountain sparkled.
Not far away, a lake created from springwater ran alongside lush, scenic greenerypeaceful.
Inside the castle, the towering ceilings and decor were equally breathtaking.
After thoroughly checking every corner of the estate, Lynn began setting up Dimensional Gates and teleportation arrays.
At the same time, a transparent barrier enveloped the entire estate.
Personally crafted by Lynn, the barrier was so tight not even a fly could sneak in!
A few minutes later
With several shimmering flashes of light, the other Familia memberslike Utahateleported in after hearing about the new place in the group chat.
"Wow!"
The whole estate left them awestruck.
There was even a hot spring!
Way bigger and better than the old apartment!
And with full facilitiesincluding an indoor hot spring?
That meant they could soak with Lynn himself!!
That idea popped into everyone's minds at once.
Then
"I CALL THAT BIG ROOM! NO TAKE-BACKS!"
The ghost girl, Kanoe Yuuko, had her eyes lit up like a kid on sugar. She darted upstairs like a deer, shouting, "This room on the far right is mine now!"
Behind her, Tendo Kisara's face turned bright red. "Yuuko! Stop stealing my spot!"
Suddenly, the whole castle was in chaos.
While the others were scrambling for rooms, Utaha quietly sidled up to Lynn.
" Would you mind if I took a peek at your room?"
She fluttered her wine-red eyes at him, gently pressing his arm into her soft chestsubtly rubbing against him like it was nothing.
Yukinoshita Haruno raised an eyebrow.
Trying to cut in line?
She smiled with a hint of danger. "The master's room is already arranged. I'll be giving him the tour."
At her words
Utaha lifted her gaze, locking eyes with Haruno.
Sparks practically flew between them.

(New week + Power Stones = Massive Mass Release)
Valifer Must Die
Inside the mansion
Yukinoshita Haruno slowly pushed open the door to the master bedroom.
And instantly
An extravagantly luxurious setup unfolded before their eyes.
But...What really caught everyone's attention was that huge, ridiculously wide bed in the center of the room!
Striding confidently to the bed, Haruno flashed a proud smile. "Well? Pretty impressive, right?"
"This thing could easily fit ten people without a problem~"
At that, everyone perked up. Busujima Saeko and the others lit up with interest.
Kuroka's golden eyes sparkled. She gave a thumbs-up. "Haruno, you nailed it! Nya~"
Lynn, on the other hand, looked a little speechless.
A bed this big what exactly was she planning?
Meanwhile, Yotsuya Miko glanced at the excited Kasumigaoka Utaha and the others and couldn't help feeling a little down.
Because of her mother, she was still going home every night to sleep.
Even when she wanted to spend time with Lynn and deepen their bond a little, she barely had the chance.
She couldn't keep going on like this!
If this kept up, even Hana would leave her in the dust!
She had to do something!
At the very least She needed to find a way to move into the new Familia base.
But her mom
Yotsuya Miko fell into deep thought, torn between choices.
Then suddenly
Her head snapped up, a spark lighting up in her eyes.
If this place was that big...
Maybe she could just bring her mom over to live here too?
That might actually work!
Turning to Lynn, she looked at him hopefully. "Master, would it be okay if I brought my mom to live here with me?"
Lynn blinked, a little surprised by the request. But then he gave a casual nod. "Of course you can."
OH YEAH!
Miko clenched her fists in silent celebration, her face lighting up with joy.
This way...
She'd be able to stay close to Lynn!
"Oho~"
Kasumigaoka Utaha suddenly let out a teasing noise, her red eyes glinting as she looked at Miko. "Well, well~ I didn't think you were that kind of girl, Miko~"
"Huh?"
Miko froze, completely confused.
Utaha just clicked her tongue and gave her a knowing smirk. "You're trying to pull a Takagi move, aren't you? Mother and Daughter tag!!"
"!!!"
Miko's eyes went wide in shock!
"Ohhh, now it makes sense!" Saeko and the others all suddenly got it too.
Yuigahama Yui, who'd been thinking about doing the same with her own mom, immediately gave up on the idea.
Living with your mom and trying to get close to Master? That's just... too awkward!!
