[Demon God's Proxy:
The host can designate an individual or creature as a proxy under their command. A proxy can temporarily borrow certain abilities of the Dimensional Demon God as granted by the host. The strength of these abilities depends on both the host's power and the proxy's individual capabilities. Completing career-related missions or major events may reward the host with system rewards. (Note: If a proxy dies, their slot is automatically reclaimed, and the host receives a playback of their death scene.)]

Kei, upon hearing the consecutive system notifications, quickly checked the system messages in his mind. Since arriving in the Marvel Universe, his previously Career section had now been updated to Dimensional Demon God. Additionally, at the bottom of the trait page, a new section had been added: Demon God's Proxy.
A proxy… can borrow a portion of the Dimensional Demon God's abilities granted by me?
His gaze shifted toward [Primordial Realm Lord].
The system had mentioned the Dimensional Demon God's abilities, which were the very same abilities the Primordial Realm Lord currently possessed, conceptual power, magic, illusions, ninjutsu…
How much power a proxy could wield depended on two factors: How well they could grasp the granted abilities, and their own individual strength and attributes.
For example, Water Release: Great Waterfall Technique, this was a fundamental ability utilizing the power of water, yet it only scratched the surface of water-based energy manipulation. It had no direct connection to laws or concepts.
Currently, he could use this technique to easily submerge and devastate an entire large city, causing destruction far greater than a tsunami. However, that was merely the technique's limit, not his limit.
But if Kanae were to use it…
He thought about the flowers growing in the Butterfly Mansion's backyard. It wasn't that he looked down on Kanae, but the Demon Slayer world's energy system was simply… too basic.
Her Flower Breathing primarily functioned by enhancing oxygen intake in a short period, boosting her physical strength explosively while momentarily overriding the body's natural self-preservation limits.
True energy manipulation was mostly reflected in sword techniques and combat styles rather than an inherent energy circulation system like chakra, demonic energy, or magic power. If she could even execute the Great Waterfall Technique, it would already mean she had exceptional talent.
Her compatibility with this power is poor. He stroked his chin thoughtfully.
For someone like Kanae, who had high physical attributes but low energy reserves, she would be much better suited for the Eight Gates or an advanced understanding of swordsmanship and polearm techniques.
Wouldn't the power from [Borrowed Account Login] be a better fit for the Demon Slayer world?
If I ever have to deal with Muzan, I should just borrow Yoriichi's account first…
However, Sun Breathing and Flower Breathing, derived from Water Breathing, had clashing properties.
At this moment, he noticed Kanae approaching him with a determined expression, following behind Miroku.
Suppressing his stray thoughts, he focused back on reality. He had only just acquired the Demon God's Proxy, and Miroku had already brought him a potential proxy candidate.
A shrine maiden, huh? Shrine maidens are the best!
"Oh Kami-sama, please allow me to be your devoted follower, to serve as your Holy Child. I vow to offer my heart and soul entirely to you, to uphold the ways of the shrine maiden, and to spread your divine name throughout the world..." With a deep breath, Kanae was about to kneel in reverence.
"No need, no need." Kei waved his hand, forming a thin barrier of primordial energy to prevent her from kneeling.
Feeling the invisible force stopping her, she hesitated for a moment before biting her lip, momentarily unsure of how to continue.
Miroku had just told her this deity disliked flattery, rituals, and excessive worship. He preferred individuals with independent personalities, those who were strong-willed and self-reliant.
But… She hoped that he would grant her the power to defeat the Demon King and eradicate the demons from their very roots. Would that still count as being strong and self-reliant? And if she accepted such a gift from him, how should she repay him?
Kushina and Hikari had kept their conversation private. So when the others approached, they had already gotten up from their lounge chairs and stood to the side, observing.
Neither of them knew much about shrine maidens.
Watching the scene unfold before them, they were utterly confused.
"Kanae, today, I bestow upon you the title of Demon God's Proxy! The power of [Fourfold Break in One Second], the twin mastery of blades and swords, and a Seed of Natural Energy!" Kei rose from his lounge chair and stepped toward Kanae, who was struggling to find the right words.
He extended his index and middle fingers, lightly touching her forehead. A brilliant seven-colored radiance from the system flickered and vanished.
The Demon God's Proxy Contract was established.
The power of [Fourfold Break in One Second], a vast amount of sword and blade mastery knowledge, and a seed allowing Kanae to use and train in natural energy all flowed gently into her mind under the contract's influence.
A soft emerald glow enveloped her.
Yet, instead of being overwhelmed by the surge of memories and power, perhaps even fainting, she absorbed everything smoothly, as if it were second nature to her.
Kushina and Hikari exchanged glances.
A Seed of Natural Energy meant she could now use natural energy.
The twin mastery of blades and swords was likely Kei's incredibly advanced swordsmanship.
But [Fourfold Break in One Second]… What was that? They had never heard of it before!
"Why isn't she screaming in pain?" Tsunade placed a hand on her waist, her elegant brows nearly knitting together in disbelief.
Every time she had received power from Kei, it had been excruciating. She had cried out in agony worse than a slaughtered pig.
And now? This? Favoritism?!
"Back then, I wasn't a Dimensional Demon God yet. The Demon God's Proxy ability only became available after I gained that career." Kei explained casually. Seeing the doubtful look on Tsunade's face, he gestured for her to come closer.
After some hesitation, she approached, fully prepared to hear whatever excuse he had. Her trust in this guy had already plummeted to near zero!
She had personally questioned him in detail before, Kushina received the ability to transform into a magical girl painlessly.
Hikari awakened the Six Paths Yin-Yang Power and the Rinnegan without suffering. Pakura suddenly gained a formidable Water Release mastery, rivaling even bloodline users.
None of them had endured any pain! And yet, she? She got both humiliated and tortured!
Unforgivable!
Even now, just remembering it made her bones ache!
Kei smirked and placed his index and middle fingers on Tsunade's forehead in an exaggerated, ceremonial manner.
"In the name of the Dimensional Demon God, I hereby alter your fate of always losing in gambling." As he issued the command to the system, [Cursed Gambler] was reset.
The black trait flickered several times before vanishing. In its place, a green trait [Gambling Mastery] appeared, slightly enhancing her gambling skills and increasing her win rate.
Although the improvement wasn't overwhelming, at least she no longer had an inevitable losing streak buff dragging her down. As long as she avoided crooked dealers, she should be fine!
"???!!!" Tsunade's pupils shrunk in shock as she grabbed Kei's arm.
"How do you feel?"
"I… I think I've become a true gambling god!"
"That's an illusion."
"No! Absolutely not! Hahahaha, I'm going to dominate the gambling world! Let's see who can stop me now! Hahahaha!"
"Hey, hey, hey! I said it's just a small boost! You're still just a regular gambler with a bit more skill—"
"HAHAHAHA! No need to say anything! I have a clear understanding of my abilities!"
"You understand nothing!"
