Little Time Skip

It has been two months since Kara woke up from her slumber, and I say that she is growing so fast in terms of power. Her physical strength is the one that was the most noticeable. She can fight my mother for a few hours non-stop, fistfights only.

The field where they spar is destroyed beyond recognition, and there is a massive hole in the middle of the field.

Each of their punches creates a shockwave that can blow a normal human away.

Sadly, while Kara's physical strength is remarkable, her magic is not. Her Demonic Energy is rather small. It was not too small like Issei in the canon timeline, however. She can still use teleportation magic just fine, but she cannot use high-level magic.

While Kara is able to fight mother to a standstill, she cannot beat her. Mother is a beast, and she uses Kara's inexperience to her own advantage. Not only that, while Kara's physical power is great, it cannot be compared to my mother's strength.

There is a reason why mothers are known as the Juggernauts of the underworld. She can make a massive hole in the middle of the mountain with a single punch.

It takes the servant several hours to repair the field they fight on.

Other than Kara, my other peerage members also increase in power. Shirou is somehow able to imbue his hollow sword with demonic power. Each divine weapon, like Sul-Sagana, will retain its original power with a slight tweak. Instead of having divine power, it has demonic power.

Not only that, but his projection also increased in rank.

Sakura now can summon a creature of darkness that obeys all of her commands. The creature itself is not very durable but what makes them dangerous is their number. Sakura can summon up to two thousand creatures, and she can detonate them to create a chain explosion.

Illya also has a breakthrough in her magecraft. I have yet to know what kind of breakthrough she had, but it involved her pet berserker by the look of it.

Rin did really have a big breakthrough, but her knowledge of other kinds of magic is increasing. She now has another kind of magic in her arsenal, and I know one of those magic. She can know many curses from Hermione's world, and she is good at that. Her favorite spell is a blood-boiling curse that she happily uses when she is in the Clocktower.

I hear from Zelretch that there is a mysterious case of a missing person every time Rin gets insulted.

Hermione did not learn something new, but she decided to sharpen her already available skill. From potion-making to rune crafting, she is now a mistress in that field. Hell, even Medea acknowledges that Hermione is a master of runes that even she cannot reach yet.

It looks like she has compatibility with a Runecraft. She still has yet to beat Medea in Potions brewing, but she will not lose either.

Medea, on the other hand, has compatibility in Warding and Sealing spells. She created the barrier around our mansion, and it was strong enough that even the Dantalion clan admitted it was a strong barrier.

It was a high compliment as they are the clan that has the power of warding. They own the strongest barrier in the underworld and maybe the world.

Kuroka also grows. For some reason, when Nekoshou hits puberty, their body changes into an adult form. Kuroka becomes what she looks like in the canon timeline. A big booby cat girl. Other than that, she also mastered Senjutsu and Youjutsu.

Senjutsu makes her an agile fighter that knows your weak point, and Youjutsu makes her a perfect support and assassin. She can create a thick mist carrying demonic energy that can obscure her enemy sight and other sensory organs. Not only that, she can sacrifice the range of the mist to make them poisonous. The smaller the mist is, the more potent the poison is.

As for me? I now can control lava with ease. I can now change all rock, stone, or soil into lava, which means that I have an unlimited supply of lava as long as I can conjure some earth using magic.

Other than that, my demonic power also increases in size. Not too much, but it was noticeable growth.

I can also boost my physical strength ten times its original for ten minutes before I feel the strain on my body. Five more minutes, and my body starts to hurt. Lucky for me, with my Phenex clan bloodline, I can continue to fight using the enchantment as long as I have demonic power.

Sadly, I can still feel the pain of my bone and muscle breaking from the strain.

In the past two months, I also finished some easy missions to fill the minimum quota the company gave me. Complete three tasks every month, and I can do whatever I can for the rest of the days.

While I did not get many points from doing that simple mission, I can focus on the business in this world.

I decided to sell some potions to the market—the potion Medea and Hermione make, and I deliberately only sold a potion that did not involve direct healing. Like a potion, we use it every time we do hard sparring.

I did not want the market for Phoenix Tear to plummet because of my potions. While it was not as potent as Phoenix Tear, it was still a direct healing potion that tripled or quadrupled your natural regeneration and also restored some of your stamina.

Other than that, I also need to attend many parties from our family ally—the Gremory, Agares, and Sitri. Lastly, there is also this.

"A formal Rating Game challenge?"

"Yes, dear. You are technically a participant in the Rating Game, and there is a Rating Game tournament happening in a few months. This is the qualification stage where you will compete with many people to reach the final stage of the Rating Game."

"I can't just reject this, can't I?"

"You can. Your father and I did not mind if you did not want to participate in this tournament."

"Nah. I will participate in this tournament."

"Good! Your first fight will happen in three days. Please tell your peerage member to prepare."

"Understood."

I think Kara will enjoy this Rating Game. She has been asking me when she can participate in a Rating Game when I explain to her about the Rating Game.

"Ah, before I go. What about Rias? Will she participate in this Rating Game?"

"Rias? No. Zeoticus already rejects the offer. She did not have any members yet, and not only that, she was too young to participate."

"And I can participate?"

"Well, you don't? I can cancel it if you want?"

"Nope."

"Heh. I know you would say that. You are too much like me to reject this tournament."

Fair enough.
