Chapter 471

"Sorry to bother you, Lord Saigo and Miss Rias!"

As the eldest son of the Phoenix family and the next patriarch, Leval was very generous and did not show any emotional changes because of Saigo's unhesitating and cold rejection.

Besides, he didn't think that this so-called marriage would be successful. Neither he nor his parents just wanted to give it a try.

In addition to the Phoenix family, there were also family members in the remaining 72 pillars of the demon family who tried to let their offspring of the right age marry the eldest lady of the Gremory family.

But without exception, all were rejected, even the Baal family, the leader of the 72 pillars of the demon family.

The demon group always gives people the impression of being insidious and cunning, and politics is of course very important in the demon group.

The reason why the Gremory family is so popular is mainly because the Gremory family has gained too much power in the past few hundred years.

Now the four great devils are able to compete with the members of the parliament, and the eldest son of the Gremory family is Lucifer, the leader of the four devils.

Another magician, Beelzebub, almost obeys Lucifer's orders, and the second-generation devil Leviathan is also on good terms with the Gremory family.

Moreover, the Gremory family itself has many allies.

Under the circumstances of one rising and the other falling, the Gremory family has already surpassed the Baal family, which ranks first, and has become the real leader of the underworld.

For other demon families, the most ideal way is of course to marry the demon king Lucifer.

But everyone knows that the demon king Lucifer is not good at women, so he can only settle for the second best and try to marry the eldest daughter of the Gremory family.

But it is obvious that the princess's parents are extremely doting on her, or they simply look down on the so-called young talents among the demons, and all the families that tried to marry her have refused.

Just as Leval was about to leave, Saigo stopped him and looked at the youngest daughter of the Phoenix family.

The little girl who followed her elder brother had beautiful blonde hair, and two ponytails fell on both sides of her cheeks like drills, looking like an exquisite doll.

She was a few years younger than Rias, and she was still ignorant at this time. She just looked at Rias in her gorgeous dress with envy, thinking that the princess of the Gremory family was really beautiful.

Saigo said at this time: "... Although the number of demon chess pieces is not large and limited, it is also the configuration of almost every top demon now."

"Today's era is also different from that of the past. Bloodlines like Rias are top demons from birth."

Just like the human regime, the demon regime has also become partially corrupted after a long time.

In the era of Sirzechs, even the pure-blooded demons of their nobles were born as top demons.

To become a top demon, you need to work hard to exercise your strength and make contributions to the demon race.

Only in this way can you become a true top demon.

Now, especially with the appearance of the devil chess pieces, more mixed-blood demons are born, and the difference between nobles and commoners is immediately revealed.

Pure-blooded demons like Rias are already top-level demons from birth, and in this era, the so-called top-level demons are no longer a symbol of pure strength, but more like a title.

"Rias will definitely get a devil chess piece. Now that the ranking game is popular in the underworld, Rias also needs her own followers to fill the vacancy of the chess piece."

"Although the Phoenix family is not a family good at fighting, it also has its own special abilities."

"Miss Rebel, the little princess of the Phoenix family, if she is not interested in participating in the ranking game as a 'king', maybe she can be with Rias."

When the eldest son of the Phoenix family heard Saigo's words, his eyes immediately lit up and he understood Saigo's idea.

As Saigo said, the number of devil chess pieces is limited, so not all top-level demons are qualified to get devil chess pieces.

Therefore, just like the development of human society in the past, some bastards of nobles who could not inherit the title would serve as stewards for other big families.

Among the demons, those noble heirs who did not have the right of inheritance would also become the dependents of other family heirs in the ranking game.

The demons also used this method to maintain their kinship, after all, all the 72 pillars of demon families were relatives.

The eldest son of the Phoenix family immediately bowed and said: "... If Miss Rias doesn't mind, then when Rebel is older, the Phoenix family will let her become Miss Rias's dependent."

Although the engagement was not successful, it was also a good result to let his younger sister become Rias's dependent.

As for wanting to become the dependent of the eldest son of the Gremory family, the demon king Lucifer, it would be too difficult.

Not to mention that Lucifer's dependents have long been full, even if they are not full, only those with extremely strong strength are qualified.

Leval happily took his brother and sister away from Xixiang and returned to the banquet hall.

Rias stood quietly beside Xixiang, with a faint reserved and elegant smile.

After the three brothers and sisters of the Phoenix family left, her white and tender little hand nervously grabbed Xixiang's sleeve and whispered:

"｀ ˇ... Father, you don't really want to find a fiancé for me, do you?"

Although she was still young, she knew the meaning of a fiancé, so she was very resistant to it.

But if this was really the instruction of her parents, she had to accept it with grievance.

Xiang patted the back of her hand, gently held her little hand, felt the smoothness of her skin, and chuckled: "...These demons, no, everyone in the world is not worthy of my little princess."

"How could I let you be wronged to make a fiancé with others."

Rias nodded hurriedly: "...Yes, I don't like those people either, they don't have the demeanor of our ancestors at all."

"If I have to have a fiancé, he must be as good as father."

Speaking of this, Rias looked a little shy.

Saigo laughed dumbly and said, "... Me? I'm just an ordinary demon without any reputation. The reason why I am known to the world is because I married your mother."

Rias shook her head vigorously: "... Father is not ordinary at all, it's just that they can't see how powerful you are."

Yes, as the bloodline that inherited Saigo's destructive power, although Rias can't feel Saigo's terrifying power like the abyss.

But Rias still has a feeling, she knows that her father is definitely not as simple as he seems, he must have an unknown past.

Even her mother is so respectful in front of her father, even if there are occasional fights between husband and wife, she still dare not do anything excessive.

Exploring her father's past and wanting to see his true face has even become Rias's desire and expectation.

"Let's go, my little princess, you may have to give a speech to the guests later, are you afraid?"

Saigo asked, holding Rias's little hand tightly.

Rias raised her proud head and snorted, "...I'm not afraid!"

Looking at Rias's proud little look, Saigo shook his head and smiled.

Chapter 67 Rias's followers (Part 2)

"Thank you very much, elders, for coming to my birthday party."

"Although I am still young among the demons, I think I can become a demon who can stand on my own."

"Just like my brother, the current Demon King Lucifer."

"My brother became the Demon King Lucifer, and the responsibility of inheriting the Gremory family was handed over to me."

"I will not feel panic for this, I will only work twice as hard to fulfill my responsibilities."

In the Gremory mansion, Rias was generous and generous. She stood on the podium in a red evening dress and talked to many high-level guests from the underworld.

Exquisite makeup, low-key and elegant jewelry, slender legs wrapped in white stockings and a pair of small crystal high heels, all show her noble elegance, her tender beauty and charm.

The guests looked at the proud eldest lady of the Gremory family and applauded with encouraging smiles.

For the demons, it is always a joy to see that the new generation has such outstanding abilities.

"I know that many nobles want to marry the Gremory family and me."

Rias suddenly changed the subject and began to talk about her own marriage. She wanted to use this method to directly cut off the idea of ​​all other families.

010 "Our Gremory family is good at discovering treasures, just like my brother Sirzechs Lucifer Gremory, who discovered his own treasure, Sir Ajeka."

As Rias's playful voice fell, the eyes of many guests turned to Sirzechs and Ajeka at the top.

Ajeka, who looked more beautiful than a woman, smiled faintly, looking happy and calm. On the contrary, Sirzechs, the steady demon king, was a little shy and embarrassed at this time.

Rias took a deep breath and continued: "... For me, my greatest treasure is my father... well, and my mother."

Not far away, Gremory, when she heard that her daughter only regarded herself as an additional thing, she pretended to be dissatisfied and curled her lips.

And Rias's teasing of her brother and mother also earned the guests' good-natured laughter.

"So, I just want to stay with my father, and I have no interest in marriage for the time being."

"Besides, I am still young, especially after Master Ajeka invented the demon chess piece, the demon population has been guaranteed, and I don't think I need to contribute to the reproduction of demons anymore."

Rias's words were full of meaning. She used a few short sentences to show her persistence and purpose, and at the same time blocked all the ideas of other families who wanted to marry the Gremory family.

The guests looked at Gremory, who was not very old, but was so well-organized, steady and generous, and spoke her mind without any nervousness.

They all admired the wisdom and calmness of the young princess of the Gremory family.

As Rias, the host of this birthday party, finished her speech, the birthday party finally began.

It was no different from the banquets of those human nobles. The so-called birthday party was actually just a social occasion for the major families to communicate.

Nobles from the underworld presented birthday gifts to the princess of Gremory, but the gifts were nothing particularly useful.

Or rather, for the Gremory clan, they themselves had nothing to lack.

Rias had always been by Saigo's side, as a female companion, she put her arm around Saigo's arm, and her whole body was almost hanging on Saigo's body.

She raised a sweet but distant smile at the corner of her mouth, accepting everyone's blessings.

It was not until a familiar person came forward that Rias's smile became more human.

"What a wonderful speech, Rias!"

"I like what you said, the Gremory clan is good at discovering treasures, and I am the greatest treasure of Sirzechs."

The charming demon king Ajeka Beelzebub walked to the side of Saigo and Rias.

He first respectfully called "father" and saluted Saigo, and then said to Rias exaggeratedly and happily.

Now Ajeka really considers himself as a member of the Gremory family, and even directly calls out the word "father".

"Rias, you are Sirzechs's sister, and that is also my sister. This is the gift I give you."

Ajeka said this and took out a king chess piece.

Seeing this chess piece, Rias curled her lips and said: "...I knew you would give a devil chess piece, Lord Ajeka!"

"Can't you have some other interesting thoughts?"

Ajeka scratched his head awkwardly and laughed. He was not very good at speaking, and he didn't know what to say at this time.

"Okay, Rias, don't bully Ajeka, you see his face is already red."

Xiang smiled and patted Rias's delicate back of the hand, teasing Ajeka.

Rias has always listened to Xixiang's words. She smiled sweetly and stood quietly beside Xixiang without saying anything more.

"Ajeka, Sirzechs is entertaining over there, go and keep him company."

Not far away, many demons were surrounding Sirzechs, the current head of the demon king. Saigo knew that Ajeka couldn't handle Rias, so he motioned him to go find Sirzechs.

Ajeka smiled gratefully at Saigo, apologized to the two, and walked into the crowd.

Rias was playing with the demon chess piece in her hand at this time. Although this thing is known to the entire demon clan, not everyone can get it.

Now that she has got this demon chess piece, although she said that the gift from Ajeka was nothing new, Rias is actually very interested in it.

"Do you have someone you value and want to make her your dependent?"

Saigo smiled at the joy in Rias' eyes and asked in a gentle voice.

Rias thought for a moment, then shook her head and said, "... For now, there is no one important enough to make my dependent. The only one who is important is Sona."

"But Sona is the next head of the Sidi family. She will also get her own devil chess piece and become the 'king'. She will not be my dependent."

At this point, Rias felt a little regretful.

"If you want to find your own dependent, you need fate, just like your brother Sirzechs, all his dependents were found by fate."

"And fate is not something you can wait for at home. You need to take the initiative to find it."

"How about this, I will accompany you to the human world in two days, and also go to the underworld. Maybe you can find those dependents who are destined to be with you."

"As you said, the Gremory family is always good at discovering treasures."

Saigo said in a gentle tone.

Rias' eyes lit up and she said excitedly: "...Will you travel with me?"

"This is not a trip, it's about finding your destined companion."

"Yeah, it means the same thing, my father and I are traveling alone!"
