In contrast.

Amidst this indescribable complex emotion, what occupies more of it is a sense of relief.

……

after all.

Ever since Cooper indicated that the Queen's demonic pawn had other plans.

She had guessed that there would be many possible situations.

but.

No matter what happens, she is very clear about her role - that is to do her job well, not to worry the master, and to be a good wife.

This is the meaning of her existence.

……

Thinking of this, Gurefia's heart was as calm as an ancient well.

She stared quietly at the demonic chess piece of the queen, which was flickering in the black flames.

The flickering flames of the Queen's demonic chess piece were reflected in her silver eyes.

06However.

What happened next was completely beyond Gurefia's expectations.

That demonic chess piece symbolizes the Queen, who holds the highest authority among Gu Bo's followers.

It did not fly towards Ikaros who was standing quietly beside it.

Instead, it drew a graceful arc, carrying a heart-pounding black flame, and flew straight towards... her?!

……

Gurefia's eyes suddenly widened, and her delicate face was full of disbelief.

I even wondered if I was hallucinating.

I saw.

The queen's demon chess piece drew a graceful arc in the air.

Finally, it landed steadily in her palm.

……

For a moment, Gurefia's mind went blank.

She felt like she was struck by a bolt from the blue. Her thoughts stopped and the only sense she had of the outside world was the warmth of the flame on the heavy chess piece, which passed through her thin gloves and onto her skin.

And the image of the "Queen" clearly visible on it was deeply imprinted in her mind.

"Gurefia,"

At this time, Gu Bo's voice, as soft as a feather, sounded in Gurefia's ears.

"Are you willing to accept this chess piece and become my...Queen?"

These words echoed in Gurefia's mind.

Gurefia stared at Gu Bo blankly, his figure reflected in her purple-red eyes, and for a moment she didn't know how to respond.

"Master...I...I..."

Gurefia's lips trembled slightly.

It seemed like he wanted to say something, but didn't know where to start.

All sorts of emotions suddenly intertwined together, leaving her speechless for a moment.

In the end, all the words came together into a vow from Gurefia's heart:

"Gurefia, I am willing to go through fire and water for you, even if it means death!"

Just say it.

Gurefia knelt on one knee, her long silver hair cascading down like a waterfall, covering most of her face, leaving only her graceful jaw and her slightly trembling red lips exposed.

……

immediately.

Gurefia raised her hand and gently pressed the "Queen" chess piece that was burning with black flames into her chest.

"Om-!"

In an instant, black flames spread rapidly, enveloping Gurefia.

Gurefia did not resist at all and allowed the black flames to devour her body.

……

In the study.

The black flames wrapped around Gurefia, like a huge black cocoon, burning quietly and emitting a heart-pounding breath.

……

Guber and Ikaros watched the scene quietly.

Ikaros watched all this with his emerald green eyes, his expression remained calm, as if he didn't care at all that the position of "Queen", which symbolized the highest authority among his family, had changed hands.

A barely perceptible smile flashed across Gu Bo's purple-red eyes.

The flames didn't burn long.

After a while, it receded like the tide.

The flames gradually dissipated, revealing the figure of Gurefia.

She remained kneeling on one knee, but her aura had undergone a drastic change. Her long silver hair swayed in the wind, emitting a faint silver glow that accentuated her elegance and grace.

……

"Rise up, my queen."

Seeing this, Gu Bo's voice was as low and magnetic as a cello, with a hint of irresistible majesty.

"Yes."

After hearing what Gu Bo said, Gurefia slowly stood up.

The clothes on her body swayed gently with Gurefia's movements.

Gurefia raised her head, and there were twinkling stars in her silver eyes, like the brightest stars in the night sky.

At this moment, she seemed to have shed her maid's youthfulness.

Instead, there is a mature charm and the majesty of a "Queen".

"Thank you for your gift, sir."

Gurefia's voice was trembling, but also more determined.

She knelt on one knee again to express her loyalty to Cooper.

Seeing this, Gu Bo couldn't help but smile helplessly.

Then he walked up to Gurefia, stretched out his hand, and gently helped her up.

……

And the moment when Guber's fingers touched Gurefia's skin.

Gurefia suddenly felt a tingling sensation like an electric current spreading throughout her body.

"Now that you have become my queen, there is no need to be so polite."

Gu Bo straightened Gurefia's body and spoke again.

"Yes, sir."

Gurefia lowered her head, her eyelashes trembling slightly, and a hint of blush still remained on her cheeks.

"By the way, Master... How should I address you from now on?"

Gurefia called softly.

The voice seemed softer than usual, even with a hint of coquettishness.

Gu Bo looked at Gurefia, who was having a rare hard time staying calm.

The corners of his mouth could not help but curl up into a smile:

"Call me whatever you want."

"After all, you don't have to call me Master. You can just call me Gu Bo."

"This... How can this be..."

Gurefia quickly shook her head: "You are the head of the family, how can Gurefia cross the line..."

"Don't get bogged down in these formalities,"

Gu Bo interrupted Gurefia:

"There doesn't have to be such a distance between you and me."

"Then... I... I'll just call you Master..."

"of course."

Seeing this, Gu Bo's smile deepened.

"So, Gurefia, how are you feeling now?"

Gurefia seemed to be still digesting everything that had just happened. Her silver eyes flickered with a hint of shyness.

"Very... gladly, sir."

Gurefia paused and added, "I just...didn't expect..."

"I can become the master's queen..."

"Isn't it true that I got what I wanted now?"

"Yes……"

……

"So, my queen, what do you want to do next?"

Gu Bo nodded, a smile flashed in his purple eyes, and he said:

"Gurefia will continue to assist the master in handling family affairs."

Gurefia responded immediately, her tone firm:

"I will also familiarize myself with the duties of the Queen as soon as possible and will never let down the Master's trust."

Cooper nodded.

"Well, I can rest assured that you are doing the work."

……

As Gu Bo's words reached my ears.

Gurefia couldn't help but raise her eyes quietly and meet Gu Bo's purple-red eyes, as if she was recalling every detail of her time with Gu Bo over the years.

Fragments of memory flashed through Gurefia's mind like a kaleidoscope, finally settling on a scene that left a particularly deep impression on her.

That was the most turbulent period for the Diablo family.

Core members of the Diablo family were assassinated one after another, and everyone was in panic and in danger.

In that situation, any little disturbance will be magnified infinitely, and any subtle move may be interpreted as a signal of betrayal.

To the extent that some old ministers who had followed the Diablo family for many years became suspicious of each other.

Suspicious glances moved between everyone, and the atmosphere was extremely tense.

She is a foreign demon with the strength of a "super demon king".

Naturally, he became the target of public criticism.
