"No problem."
Lewar agreed immediately.
He even seemed a little surprised.
It was no loss if that prodigal son died.
If he could connect with this powerful individual through his sister, it would definitely be a sure profit.
"However, Your Excellency, your actions today will likely incur the displeasure of the pure-blooded devil families. Do you need me to mediate?"
"By the way, do you really not care that I killed your brother?"
Linde was truly surprised.
The other party seemed too calm; it didn't look like an act.
"He spoke disrespectfully to Your Excellency and deserved to be punished."
Lewar's expression was cold: "Because of him, he provoked a powerful individual like Your Excellency. Even if he hadn't died, I would have punished him according to family rules."
It really was just a mere fratricide, huh.
Linde gave him a deep look.
As expected of someone from a pure-blooded noble family, fools like Ryser were indeed very few.
Along the way, Lewar continuously expressed his loyalty.
However, Linde didn't believe a single word he said.
But it didn't matter.
He couldn't make everyone like him.
As long as the other party continued to fear his power as they did now, that was enough.
Soon.
The two arrived at a large hall.
Leval instructed the maid to serve tea, then smiled and said, "Your Excellency, please wait a moment, I will bring Ravel over now."
"Mm."
Lind sat in a chair, taking a small sip of black tea.
After a long while.
Two figures had already arrived in the hall.
In addition to Leval, a graceful figure followed behind him.
It was none other than Ravel Phenex.
She was wearing a luxurious and elegant gown.
The tight corset clearly showcased her slender waist.
The pristine white gown perfectly outlined her full figure.
Her golden twin ponytails fell naturally.
Giving off a contrasting impression of both a princess and a girl next door.
No wonder it took so long.
It seemed she had dressed up carefully.
A smile played on Lind's lips.
Ravel walked slowly, her long skirt revealing her jade-like legs covered in white stockings, and bowed to Lind.
"I am Ravel Phenex, it is an honor to meet Your Excellency."
"I am Lind."
Lind smiled, "It's a pleasure to meet you."
"I heard that Lord Lind wished to see me?"
As she spoke, Ravel hesitated for a moment, but still came before Lind.
A faint yet rich floral scent already filled Lind's nostrils.
Invisible flames began to rise.
"Lord Lind, I still have matters to attend to, so Ravel will entertain you from now on."
Leval dismissed all the servants, and before turning to leave the hall, he gave Ravel a meaningful look.
Ravel's cheeks flushed crimson, but she still nodded.
"Interesting."
All of this, of course, did not escape Lind's eyes.
He said indifferently, "Ravel, you must know that I killed Riser, right?"
"But you have to entertain me; aren't you very angry with me?"
"No, not at all."
Ravel waved her hands repeatedly, "My third brother and I didn't have a good relationship, so why would I hate Lord Lind because of that?"
"???"
Lind blinked.
Is that so? Did he remember incorrectly?
Or was it the butterfly effect caused by this hodgepodge world?
"In that case, let me verify it."
Lind casually set up a barrier, extended his index finger, and golden blood seeped out.
Ravel asked curiously, "What is this?"
"My unique reincarnation ritual."
Lind explained, "If I leave an imprint on you, you will become my familiar."
"I see."
Ravel showed a look of understanding.
However.
A reincarnation ritual that doesn't use devil pieces—this was the first time she had heard of it.
Ravel obediently nodded, "Then, what should I do?"
"First, take off your outer clothing."
Ravel froze, then her face instantly turned red.
Although she had already prepared herself mentally.
But when it came down to it.
It was still a bit too embarrassing.
"Hoo!"
She took a deep breath, then reached back to unfasten her dress.
Two 'sins' were the first to be freed, bouncing gently a few times.
Lind's eyes lit up.
Her appearance really didn't show it; this was at least a C-rank and above powerhouse.
And very quickly.
"Hiss."
Lind took a small breath, his index finger twitching.
He saw a pair of beautiful legs covered in white garter stockings already entering his sight.
Subsequently.
Lind's gaze focused on something... his eyelids twitched.
Noticing Lind's gaze, Ravel's delicate body trembled.
She timidly said, "Lord Lind, what should I do next?"
"Don't worry, just stand still."
Lind extended his index finger and dripped blood onto Ravel's skin.
Buzz!
A brilliant light shone, and a heart-shaped pattern flashed across her skin.
Countless mysterious characters flickered within the light.
Lind also withdrew his gaze, then was attracted by Ravel's attributes.
[Ravel Phenex]
[Race: Devil]
[Master: Lind Lucifugus]
[Level: LV34]
[Skills: Destruction Magic, Destruction Demonic Eye]
[Phoenix Body: Any physical damage can be restored to its original state.]
[Phoenix Tears: Her own tears can instantly heal all injuries of the user.]
[Phoenix Body]
This skill seems to overlap with 'Blood Drop Regeneration'?
But that's right, as more and more familiars appear, it's reasonable for familiars with similar skills to emerge.
But what puzzled him more was the skill [Phoenix Tears].
To use it, should he make her cry?
That would be too embarrassing, wouldn't it?
Hmm—.
Never mind, let Ravel handle this.
Anyway, the skills were all the same.
And besides these.
Lind looked at Ravel, who seemed as calm as ever.
This woman really doesn't hate me.
Is this what a pure-blooded devil family is like?
He had indeed witnessed it.
But that's right.
In some worlds, a certain wolf's hatred for killing his father wasn't even considered a big deal.
"Lord Lind, is there anything strange about me?"
Ravel blinked, a little strangely.
"Nothing, I just think you are indeed an honest and good girl."
"Uh..."
Unexpectedly praised by Lind, Ravel felt a little shy.
"Alright, take a look."
Lind transcribed the blessing information and briefly showed it to her.
"Oh."
Ravel nodded, half-understanding.
After putting her outer clothes back on, she began to examine it.
The first things that caught her eye were the two skills: [Immortal Body] and [Phoenix Tears].
Hmm, our family's unique abilities.
Ravel thought this, but then her pupils deeply contracted.
"Phoenix Tears... it's become like this?"
Looking at the skill description, Ravel murmured in a low voice.
Phoenix Tears were their family's secret treasure.
But to obtain and use them, a pure-blooded member had to be within a special magic circle.
With a cup that had also been specially treated by ritual, filled with water, then their own tears dropped into it.
Only then would it become Phoenix Tears.

But!
When shedding tears, one must empty their mind, otherwise the ritual would fail.
Besides that, there are many other considerations.
Therefore, the production of tears of the phoenix is very low.
But now...
All 773 steps were skipped.
All that's needed is to shed tears.
Then!
She saw her level—LV34.
What is this?
Why does it seem like a game setting from the Human World?
Seeing her confused expression, Linde explained.
"It really is like this."
Levia's hands clenched, and a flicker of excitement passed through her eyes.
A level system just like in a game.
You can gain experience by killing monsters.
What does this mean?
It means that from now on, she will have no bottlenecks.
As long as she has time...
She could even become another Devil King, or even stronger, after countless years in the Phoenix Family.
"Master, I never imagined you possessed such great power."
Levia looked up at Linde, her eyes shimmering, and deep within them, admiration and longing subtly emerged.
People worship the strong.
Pure-blooded devils even more so.
Not to mention, Linde's power could only be described as incredible.
She was very confident.
If this matter were known...
Countless devils would probably envy, be jealous, and hate, even at all costs, just to become Linde's Retainer.
For a moment...
Levia clenched her fists.
To be honest, she had never expected to receive such a great opportunity.
When she first learned that Linde wanted her, deep down, though there was no hatred, she was still somewhat unwilling.
After all, no one wants to give themselves to a Devil King they've never met, who asserts power through force.
But now, she truly and sincerely thanked all of this.
She had truly gained an immense advantage.
Thinking of this, her pretty face flushed slightly, and she said, "Master, let me show you around now."
As she said this, her ears were already crimson.
