Rias was sitting on the edge of the bed, holding a cup of hot tea in her hand, blowing gently, as if trying to cool it down.
Her long crimson hair fell softly on her shoulders, and her fair face was slightly flushed, making her look even more charming.
Sirzechs was lying on the bed. Although his face was still a little pale, it was much better than before when he looked neither human nor ghost.
"Ah, Master Gubai, you're here!"
When Rias saw Gu Bo, she was surprised. She quickly stood up and put the teacup in her hand on the table. A sweet smile appeared on her face, and her green eyes were full of joy.
"Miss Rias, you're here too."
Gu Bo looked at Rias in surprise, then looked at Sirzechs who was lying on the bed and asked with concern, "Sirzechs-sama, how are you?"
"Haha, thanks to you, I feel much better now."
Sirzechs smiled weakly upon hearing Cooper's question and tried to stand up, but Rias quickly held him down.
"Brother, you are still very weak, so you should lie down."
Rias advised softly, winking at Gu Bo as she spoke, as if hinting at something.
Gu Bo feigned confusion and looked at Rias.
Rias saw that Guber didn't react.
I had no choice but to give up.
Gu Bo suddenly felt a little funny.
Look.
He has quite an influence on Rias.
"Sirzex-sama, please lie down and rest. There's no need to force yourself." Seeing Sirzechs trying to get up, Gu Bo quickly stopped him. "Your body still needs to be taken care of. If you have any questions, please tell me or Miss Rias."
Hearing this, Sirzechs let out a wry smile and helplessly lay back on the bed. "I'm so sorry for causing you so much trouble. I never thought I'd end up like this."
"Of course not, Sirzechs-sama, there's no need to be so polite." Gu Bo shook his head slightly. "This isn't your fault. It's just that those guys from the Trouble Group were too despicable and shameless."
Rias listened from the side, a hint of tenderness in her beautiful eyes.
"Yes, brother, you should have a good rest."
Rias looked at Sirzechs, a hint of apology in her eyes.
After all, if it weren't for her, his brother wouldn't have been caught up in this turmoil.
Gu Bo naturally noticed the deep apology in Rias's eyes and couldn't help but smile.
He turned his gaze towards Rias and asked softly.
"By the way, Miss Rias, are you okay? Were you injured during the battle just now?"
Hearing this, Rias quickly shook her head, a blush spreading across her cheeks. "I'm fine."
"That's good."
Gu Bo nodded slightly.
"Yes, Master Gubai."
Rias suddenly remembered something and asked curiously, "What are you going to do with those people from the Misfortune Group?"
"Ah."
Upon hearing this, Gu Bo nodded and said calmly, "Those guys who dared to enter the underworld have now been dealt with by me."
"So fast?!" Sirzechs blurted out in surprise.
He naturally recognized Gu Bo's strength.
But now, hearing Gu Bo talk about it with his own ears, it still feels a little hard to believe.
"Yes."
Rias also looked surprised. "Don't they have the Infinite Dragon God Ophis backing them up?!"
"Hehe, even the Infinite Dragon God Ophis may not always protect them."
Upon hearing this, Gu Bo just smiled faintly and didn't say much.
"But...even if I eliminated those guys."
"This does not mean that the threat has been completely eliminated."
Gu Bo paused, a thoughtful look flashing in his eyes: "Those guys were completely wiped out, but whether there are other members secretly spying, that is unknown."
"But..." Gu Bo looked at the brother and sister and comforted them, "But, I'm here, you don't have to worry."
As soon as these words were spoken, Rias's initially worried mood instantly settled down, and her emerald eyes were filled with trust.
And Sirzechs looked at Guber with a relieved smile on his face.
"That's right, I feel much more at ease now that you're here."
"By the way, Gu Bo, I really should thank you. If you hadn't acted in time, this time, it might have really caused a disaster." Sirzechs paused, as if he thought of something, and continued.
"Sirzex-sama, you are too kind."
Gu Bo shook his head slightly. "As members of the underworld, it's our duty to help each other."
"is it?"
Sirzechs raised an eyebrow and gave Rias a meaningful look before speaking.
Rias's previously calm face suddenly became hot.
Gu Bo felt a little speechless, but he said nothing, and his face still had a slightly smiling expression.
Gu Bo continued, "I still need to discuss some matters with Gurefia. Lord Sirzechs, please rest well. I will not disturb you for now. If you need anything, you can always come to me."
After hearing this, Rias felt a little disappointed, but she didn't want to disturb Uncle Gu too much.
"Well, Lord Gubo, please go ahead and do your work." Rias finally nodded to Gubo.
"Then I'll take my leave first."
Gu Bo nodded slightly.
Then he turned around, pushed the door open and left the room.
With the sound of the door closing.
Rias's forced calmness was instantly shattered, replaced by a look of embarrassment.
"elder brother!"
"What were you looking at me for?"
"It's all your fault. Master Gubo is gone."
Rias sighed softly and turned her head to look at Sirzechs lying on the bed.
Facing the gaze from his sister, Sirzechs showed a helpless expression.
Facing Rias's somewhat resentful gaze, Sirzechs could only sigh helplessly.
How could he, as a brother, not see what his sister was thinking?
However, as a brother, he could only watch and worry about this emotional matter, but he could not intervene...
What's more, he's in this state now, there's nothing I can do to help him even if I want to!
"Rias, you... don't look at me like that. I can't stand it." Sirzechs coughed dryly and tried to change the subject: "Um... didn't you say you would get me a glass of water? My throat feels a little dry."
Rias finally came to her senses, realizing her previous misstep. A blush instantly spread across her pretty face. She quickly stood up, walked to the table, picked up the still steaming kettle, and carefully poured a glass of water before handing it to Sirzechs.
"Brother, the water is here, drink slowly." She said softly, with a barely perceptible hint of coquettishness in her tone.
Sirzechs took the water cup and took a sip, feeling a bitter taste in his mouth. As a brother, he not only failed to help his sister, but also became a burden. What a failure. He looked at Rias with a hint of apology in his eyes:
"Rias, this time... it's all thanks to Gu Bo, otherwise, I really don't know what would have happened."
Rias's expression turned serious when she heard this. She nodded, a hint of longing in her eyes.
"Yes, Master Guber... He is truly powerful, yet gentle."
Gentle? Sirzechs's mouth twitched slightly at the word. He couldn't help but recall the moment when Gu Bo had pinched his neck with one hand, like a puppet on a string. How could there be any gentleness?
I'm afraid my sister is really trapped in this.
However, with Gu Bo's current status and strength, how would he view Rias?
Thinking of this, Sirzechs couldn't help but sigh.
……
the other side.
As the brother and sister were lost in their own thoughts, Gu Bo walked down the corridor leading to the meeting room.
On both sides of the corridor, exquisite glass lamps emit soft light, making the ground as smooth as a mirror.
Gu Bo walked through the corridors and pushed open the door of the meeting hall.
"Squeak-"
The heavy wooden door made a low friction sound, echoing in the empty hall.
In the meeting room, Gurefia was discussing something with a group of old ministers. When they saw Gu Bo come in, they all stood up and saluted:
"My lord."
"Well, no need to be polite."
Gu Bo nodded slightly, walked to the main seat and sat down.
"Everyone saw what happened just now, right?" Gu Bo said directly to the point. His tone was calm but carried a hint of the majesty of a superior.
An old official quickly stepped forward, bowed, and said, "Master, your wisdom and bravery have truly opened my eyes!"
The other veteran ministers also nodded in agreement, their faces full of admiration.
"Yes, Master, your strength is truly unfathomable!"
"We are so lucky to follow the master of the family!"
……
Facing the compliments from the crowd, Gu Bo raised his hand and signaled for everyone to be quiet:
I didn't come here to hear these compliments.
"But I feel it is necessary to take this opportunity to further expand the strength of the Diablo family."
Gu Bo's voice grew deeper, and his purple eyes gleamed with brilliance.
"Master Patriarch, what are you planning?"
An old minister understood the meaning of Gu Bo's words and couldn't help asking.
"You should have all seen the damage caused by today's battle." 3.8
The old ministers nodded one after another.
The aftermath of the battle destroyed nearly half of the Diablo family's territory.
Even the mountains in the distance were flattened, which shows how fierce the battle was.
"but."
Gu Bo changed the subject: "Although the battle caused considerable losses, from another perspective, this is also a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for our Diablo family!"
Gurefia was obviously the more perceptive one.
A glimmer of understanding flashed in her eyes, and she asked first, "Master, do you mean... to take this opportunity to absorb neutral forces?"
The neutral forces of the underworld represent the races living in the underworld except demons.
There are creatures like dragons, elves, monsters, goblins, dwarves, and vampires.
Most of these neutral forces were exiled to the underworld due to some special reasons.
Generally, there is no in-depth communication with people of different races.
"The one who understands me is Gurefia!"
"Yes."
