The Valvas estate glimmered under the afternoon sun. Inside the main hall, Roy stood before his grandfather Darius Valvas and grandmother Clara Valvas, crimson-gold eyes focused and determined.
"Grandfather, Grandmother… I have something for you," Roy said calmly.
With a flick of his System Store interface, he retrieved two Bloodline Evolution Cards. The air around them shimmered with devil energy, pulsing faintly as the cards activated.
Clara Valvas – The Matriarch
Clara felt a sudden surge of energy flow through her body. The Bael and Valvas bloodline traits harmonized and strengthened, magic and devil energy coiling like living serpents within her.
"What… is this…?" she whispered, eyes wide.
Her strength surged from Peak of Saturn Class to Super Devil Class. Every movement felt more natural, faster, and overwhelming.
She looked at Roy in awe.
"Roy… you… you've done this for me?"
Roy smiled softly.
"Yes, grandmother. But promise me—you will not reveal your true strength to the outside world."
Clara nodded, her heart swelling with pride and gratitude.
"I promise, Roy. Thank you… my grandson."
Darius Valvas – The Patriarch
Next, Roy turned to Darius. The system card activated, his already immense power surging beyond Super Devil Class to Peak of Super Devil Class. Time seemed to bend around him for a brief instant, elemental magic coiling around his body like living flames and storms.
Darius blinked, momentarily stunned.
"Roy… you… your power… this… you've surpassed even my expectations."
"I wanted to strengthen you both," Roy replied."But your true strength must remain a secret. The world is not ready for this."
Darius smiled knowingly.
"Very well, grandson. Our secret is safe with you."
Introducing the Peerages
Roy then gestured toward the assembled first and second Evil Piece peerages.
"Grandfather, Grandmother… meet my peerages."
Clara and Darius's eyes widened as they took in the power, confidence, and unity of the two groups.
First Peerage: Grayfia Lucifuge (Queen), Kuroka (Bishop), Koneko (Rook), Lavania Reni, and the others.
Second Peerage: Scáthach (Queen), Irene Belserion (Bishop), Medusa Rider, Astoria Saber & Lancer, Modred, Kaguya Ōtsutsuki, and others.
"Incredible…" Clara whispered."Their devil power… it's far beyond what most devils achieve at their age."
Roy nodded calmly.
"I've trained them personally, and those with Super Devil to Satan Class powers are hidden from the outside world. Only those I trust may know their true strength."
Grayfia's Growth
Darius and Clara turned to Grayfia Lucifuge, noticing the faint yet undeniable aura of Transcendental-Class Devil energy.
"Roy… did you do this to her as well?" Darius asked.
Grayfia blushed, nodding shyly.
"Yes… he helped me break through my limits…"
Clara stepped forward, embracing Grayfia warmly.
"My daughter… I'm so proud of you."
Grayfia, usually composed and stoic, felt a surge of love and pride at being acknowledged by those she considered parents.
A Family United in Strength
Roy looked over the group, his heart swelling with love, pride, and resolve.
"With my peerages and the strengthened pillars of the Valvas family… we will protect each other, and the world will never know the true strength we wield until the time is right."
Darius placed a hand on Roy's shoulder.
"You've truly become the Yaksha of Valvas, grandson. Your strength, wisdom, and care for those around you… surpass even the legends."
Clara nodded, eyes misty.
"And your peerages… they reflect your heart as much as your power."
Roy smiled, crimson-gold eyes gleaming.
"This is only the beginning… together, we will shape the future of the devil world."
The Valvas estate, once a symbol of power and lineage, now radiated a warmth and unity unlike any before. The grand pillars of the family had been strengthened, and the Yaksha's forces were ready for whatever the world—or the Old Satan Faction—might throw at them next.
