Chapter 92: Annoyance and Confession
--- Chapter 92 ---
Dragon Nest's Compound.
After telling everyone what happened when he was inside the sealed room and introducing Qianye Ying'er as his fiance, Huo Yuhao sat in the room with two devils and the leader of the fallen angels.
"Why the long face, Grayfia?" Huo Yuhao smiled at the famously known Silver-Haired Guardian.
Grayfia glanced at the young woman beside Huo Yuhao and asked, "Is she really your fiance?"
Qianye Ying'er smiled because she could feel jealousy coming from Grayfia's heart. Having eyes that could see someone's desires is so convenient in this kind of situation, which caused her to giggle in amusement.
'Let's see... She's not bad. That appearance is 7.9/10, and with a gentle yet firm heart, this woman is definitely suitable to become Yunlong's good little maid.' The young woman thought while observing Grayfia Lucifuge inside out. She even expected Huo Yun'er to agree because such a fine servant is rare nowadays. Not to mention Dragon Nest would conquer this world sooner or later.
She giggled and showed the silver-haired devil her engagement ring, "Too bad for you because I'm legit his fiance."
Huo Yuhao obviously noticed that Qianye Ying'er wanted to test Grayfia Lucifuge's character. He sighed inside because the blonde would convert one of the current most prominent devils into her cult's followers. And it was too late to prevent it.
Once Qianye Ying'er focused on something, that person would be on her watchlist. "Says Grayfia-San. What's your motive for chasing over my fiance?" She asked casually.
"I don't know what you're talking about?" Grayfia was caught off guard but acted cool outside. However, she forgets to hide her nervous clenched hands.
"Is that so? What a shame." Qianye Ying'er giggled while resting her head on Huo Yuhao's shoulder. She was having fun teasing this rigid-looking woman.
The males stared at each other, shaking their heads helplessly because women were still mysterious creatures no matter how old they were. This statement was proven true throughout history.
While the gold and silver individuals are glaring at each other, Huo Yuhao calmly listens to Ajuka and Asazel's questions regarding Dragon Nest's policy and benefits, like what they could obtain from agreeing with his offer. After all, achieving a higher realm is vague to them because the higher place in this world is heaven or other gods' realms like Asgard and Olympus.
"Before that, I have to ask this." Azazel suddenly stopped.
"Are you part of Chinese Mythology?"
Huo Yuhao laughed because Azazel's question was hilarious. After all, Douluo Dalu's Universe could be considered Xianxia based on the Chinese Novel's standards. It's technically part of the mythology, but he doesn't think so because everything has branched too much outside reality.
"No, I'm not." He answered while shaking his head. "You'll understand later when every major faction receives my offer."
"I'll tell you my origin at the correct time."
Azazel couldn't believe this guy and rolled his eyes, "Again, with that mysteriousness... Do you think this is Xianxia's drama?"
"Kinda." Huo Yuhao smirked a little.
"Anyway... Yuhao-Dono, Can I see your World-Slashing Saber?" Ajuka suddenly changed the topic, which caused Huo Yuhao to raise his brow a little because this man had been asking curious-filled questions for the past hour.
"World-Slashing Saber? Ah, you mean Stella." Huo Yuhao was confused for a second and connected the dots because he hadn't told anyone about his weapon, so people could only assume things.
He took out the Star Quaking Saber from inventory, which caused the room's mood to become heavier because the blade had slayed numerous beings in the Great War. Even Azazel trembled upon seeing the bewitched saber that slashed some of his comrades in the past. Fallen Angels are lucky compared to other factions because they distanced themselves from Huo Yuhao at that moment.
"Ara, what a nice weapon." Qianye Ying'er commented while looking at the clean black blades slowly getting off the Starless Saber Sheath. "Did you create another weapon when I was at the Vatican?"
"Well, Something like that." Huo Yuhao nodded casually, which caused the two devils and the Governor General of Grigori to frown. Now that Azazel thinks about it, Huo Yuhao did draw a fresh blade out of smithery when fighting everyone in the Great War.
'Don't tell me he could create Divine Weapon out of spite? That's utterly broken. What the fuck!' Azazel was mind blown because even Biblical God needs a few days to months to create Sacred Gears.
"Then, I'll be leaving you two alone here."
"Don't worry... I won't let anyone enter this place. So you two could let out some steam~!"
"Ying'er, stop." Huo Yuhao smiled wryly. "Grayfia's face reddened like a tomato because of your teasing."
"Hehe, my bad~!" The teasing master walked out of the room and hummed while using runes to seal the door.
Grayfia awkwardly walked off her seat and bowed before Huo Yuhao, looking at his royal blue eyes nervously. "Y-Yuhao-Sama, can you take your weapon out again?" She requested with a stutter.
"Uh, okay?" Huo Yuhao pulled out Stella, and Grayfia could feel the blood of Lucifer from it.
Tears ran from Grayfia's eyes, which left Huo Yuhao surprised because this happened so suddenly. She grasped the blade and let the edge cut her palm, dripping the carpet with her blood. Weirdly, a menacing black light started to come out from Stella's blade.
"The blade contained the last will of the Original Lucifer."
"When you defeated him in the Great War, he sacrificed some of his true devil's blood to seal a mental message to the future head of the Lucifuge Clan."
"He told the previous head, my father, to surrender upon your second arrival to this world."
"I, Grayfia Lucifuge, the 2nd Lucifuge Clan's Head, present herself to Huo Yuhao-Sama's reign." She kissed the blade, which cut her rosy lips slightly.
[You have restored Lucifer Clan's innate skill]
[Demonic Brilliance of Evil Light]
"Ahh..." Grayfia felt a familiar powerful black light explode from Huo Yuhao's body, making her devil's nature happy.
"T-This is the Demonic Brilliance of Evil Light"
"Yuhao-Sama."
"Please accept this lowly servant."
[Do you want to accept Grayfia Lucifuge as your servant?] Evo's voice echoed in Huo Yuhao's mind.
[Upon accepting her, you'll receive a hidden quest]
[Yes/No]
"Yes, I accepted you to my family, Grayfia." Huo Yuhao laughed in defeat when hearing Evo's notification.
Grayfia smiled happily despite her bleeding lips and hugged Huo Yuhao's legs. "Thank you... Thank you, Yuhao-Sama~!" She whispered like a dream come true.
