Abel looked at Yukino. "Have you made up your mind?"
Facing Abel's question, Yukino nodded earnestly. Since contact was unavoidable, then she would gain power to overcome it.
"I... I'm ready."
The corners of Abel's lips curved upward. He extended his hand, and a Pawn piece floated in his palm.
Yukino took a deep breath, then walked up to Abel and asked, "What should I do?"
"Take off your clothes."
Upon hearing this, both Yukinoshita sisters' eyes widened.
Were they going this far right from the start?
Yukino was a bit conflicted, unsure if her current decision was correct.
Yukino's ears were flushed, and she made up her mind.
Then, under the smiling gazes of everyone and her sister, she slowly removed her outer coat, revealing her undergarments, and then slowly took off her last piece of covering.
Hmm... Similar to a kitten. Small and very cute, with room for improvement.
At this moment, Abel spoke, "You only needed to expose your chest."
Yukino froze, then her entire face flushed crimson, and she quickly put her undergarments back on.
He was definitely not a proper devil! Just as cunning as her sister!
Pervert!
"Then, let's begin."
Saying that, Abel inserted the Pawn Piece.
Feeling the object enter her body, Yukino's body emitted light.
[Peerage Pack + 1]
While Yukino was undergoing her reincarnation, Abel looked at Haruno. "Are you ready?"
" There's no choice, is there? Please be gentle, Master."
Then, Haruno repeated Yukino's earlier action, exposing her chest.
Abel inserted the piece into her body.
[Peerage Pack + 1]
After a while, Yukino woke up. She stretched her body, and a pair of Devil Wings grew from her back. There was no discomfort whatsoever.
Yukino felt the power surging within her body, feeling excited and new.
But when she saw her sister, who was currently undergoing reincarnation, she paused, and her feelings became somewhat complex.
It seemed she had dragged her sister into this as well. At this, a sense of self-blame arose.
At this moment, Haruno awoke, and a pair of Devil Wings grew from her back. She moved her body, a confident smile appearing on her face.
However, when she saw her somewhat self-reproaching sister, Haruno went to Yukino's side.
"Don't worry, this has nothing to do with Yukino. I, too, want to be my true self, without the so-called family ties, without those worries. So forgive my little selfishness, and I also don't want to be separated from you."
"Nee-san..."
"Alright, you two, the small talk ends here."
Abellooked at Grayfia. "Grayfia, I'll leave these two newcomers to you. Please teach them some basic common sense."
"Understood, Master."
With that, Abel slipped back into his room to open the Peerage packs.
[Congratulations to the Host for obtaining: Shadowkhan Army (Jade's Royal Guard Version), Snow-Snow Fruit, Dog Talisman!]
'Shadowkhan Army? And the Royal Guard version?'
Next was the Snow-Snow Fruit from One Piece, and the Dog Talisman that could keep him in peak condition.
These rewards were pretty good. He held the Dog Talisman, then drew out the magical energy and integrated it into his body.
He would see who to give the Snow-Snow Fruit to later.
At this moment, the system's broadcast sounded.
[You have a new order from another world. Please process it promptly.]

The world of Akame ga Kill!
The northern lands were covered in white snow.
On the wall of a border city, a man with long black hair, holding a long spear in his left hand, and toying with a card in his right hand, stood there.
He was the prince of this country and also a hero, Numa Seika.
"Unknowns lurk beneath the calm wind and snow."
"Without enough food, we must head south. I will lead my people towards a beautiful future."
At this moment, a scouting soldier ran over. "Your Royal Highness! Enemies are attacking!"
Numa stood on the city wall, looking at the swirling snowstorm before him, his soldiers all prepared for battle.
At this moment, the ground began to tremble and figures emerged one by one from the snowstorm. Leading them was a blue-haired woman, dressed in a white military uniform.
She was Esdeath, the strongest person in this world.
Numa looked at Esdeath, a grave expression on his face.
The Empire's strongest General.
He wondered if he could defeat her.
Of course, such emotions could not be revealed, as he was the spiritual pillar of this army and its people.
Esdeath looked at Numa atop the city wall.
"The strongest hero of the Northern Kingdom? I wonder how long he can last, I hope he can make this fun for me."
Esdeath had an inexplicable smile on her lips as she waved her hand.
The battle erupted instantly, without any warning.
Numa's original plan to advance south turned into a defense of the capital, while Esdeath began her northern expedition.
Soldiers from both sides clashed, and the shouts of battle resounded.
So, next came the command of both armies.
— — —
Time flew by, and three days passed.
Corpses lay strewn across the snowy plains.
"Damn it!"
Numa punched the city wall, the battle below still ongoing, people constantly falling.
These were his people! His soldiers!
He searched for Esdeath's location. She had not appeared even once since yesterday.
Could it be that he wasn't even worthy of her making a move?
Numa gritted his teeth and said, "Where is that damned woman now!"
He didn't know what Esdeath was doing. It couldn't be that she was going straight for the king alone, right?
Numa's guess was not wrong. Esdeath had already captured the King alive from the Northern Kingdom's palace, or rather, she had seized Numa's father.
Just as Numa was calming himself, the woman who had been missing for a long time appeared, dragging a lump of flesh behind her with chains.
Fighters from both sides stopped fighting. The Empire's soldiers stopped because their General had arrived, while the Northern Kingdom's soldiers stopped because they saw their King.
"K-King."
