Gu Bo, who was standing nearby, also looked at Venelana with interest without interrupting.

after all.

As the head of the Diablo family.

Plus the strong strength shown before.

The other higher-ranking demon families would certainly be as eager to get along with him as the Gremory family is now.

Now all he had to do was nod and agree.

Then the marriage between the Gu Bo and Gimonri families is a foregone conclusion.

after all.

Just with the identity of a "transcendent", what kind of woman can't he want?

……

but.

The reason why the Gremory family arranged Venelana Gremory as the marriage partner.

in fact.

There is another hidden story.

In Venelana's opinion.

Her younger sister - Rias Gremory.

It's really too immature.

He shouldn't have sacrificed himself for the Gremory family.

Therefore, when the elders in the family were discussing.

Venelana resolutely chose herself as the marriage partner.

……

"sister……"

Looking at Venelana's determined look.

A strong sense of unease rose in Rias's heart.

But, based on her understanding of Venelana.

Now that Venelana has spoken.

Then there is probably no room for maneuver in this matter.

……

"I wonder what Master Gubai thinks?"

Venelana looked at Guber and asked again.

"Well..."

Gu Bo touched his chin and said:

"Ms. Venelana, you are an exceptional woman. Whether it's your appearance, temperament, or strength, you are all admirable."

Hearing what Gu Bo said, Venelana's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a smug smile.

However, Gu Bo's next words made the smile on her face freeze instantly.

"but……"

"Marriage is such a big deal, how can it be treated as a joke?"

"Although I, Gu Bo, am not a gentleman, I will not treat marriage as a transaction."

"Marriage is a serious matter, how can it be treated lightly? It must require mutual affection and mutual consent."

"not to mention…"

Gu Bo looked directly at Venelana, "I don't like being forced, especially...this kind of thing."

“There is absolutely no coercion.”

"Venilana Gremory sincerely hopes to enter into a marriage contract with Master Guber."

Venelana said, looking directly at Guber.

……

As soon as these words came out.

Rias suddenly felt a buzzing in her mind, and everything went blank.

She stared at Venelana with wide eyes in disbelief, her lips trembling slightly, but no sound came out.

"What?~!" Rias exclaimed in her heart.

"Does Onee-sama really want to marry Master Gu Bo?!!"

This sudden news hit Rias' heart like a huge rock.

She sat there in a daze, feeling that everything around her became unreal, as if she was in a dream.

It's not just Rias.

Even Sirzechs looked stunned.

Obviously, no one expected Venelana to make such a decision.

For a moment, he didn't know what to do.

"This this……"

Sirzechs opened his mouth, but found he had no idea what to say.

……

A hint of surprise also flashed across Gurefia's face, but she quickly regained her composure, her eyes moving between Guber and Venilana.

……

"Ms. Venelana, are you sure?"

Seeing this, Gu Bo hesitated for a moment and finally spoke.

But those purple-red eyes were a little deeper than before.

"Yes, Master Cooper."

Venelana looked directly into Cooper's eyes and didn't flinch.

Gu Bo repeated Venelana's words and nodded thoughtfully, "Then, can you give me a reason?"

"Reasons?" Venelana smiled. "I think there are many reasons."

"First of all, as I just said, Master Gu Bo, you are extremely powerful and gifted. Your future achievements are limitless. Personally, I have a good impression of you..."

"Secondly, marrying you would be a blessing for the Gremory family."

"The Gremory and Diavolo families have been friends for generations. A marriage can further strengthen our relationship and allow us to jointly face future challenges."

"So, compared to goodwill, maximizing the family's interests is the most important thing?"

After hearing this, Gu Bo still remained unmoved and asked.

He looked at Venelana calmly, waiting for her further explanation.

after all.

Anyone who heard the reason why Venelana liked him would think it was nonsense.

There is only one reason to do this.

——That is to let himself, who is also a "Transcendent", help the Gremory family survive the impending crisis.

after all.

Now Sirzechs was powerless.

Although he can use his former identity as "Lucifer" as a deterrent.

But if time goes on for a long time.

The other higher-ranking demon families would naturally know that Sirzechs's strength was no longer what it used to be.

By that time.

The Gremory family's status will inevitably plummet.

They may even be ostracized and suppressed by other superior demon families.

For the Gremory family.

Joining forces with him is undoubtedly an opportunity to help the family overcome difficulties and even move to a higher level.

……

"Lord Gu Bo is indeed extremely intelligent."

"That's right. Maximizing profits is indeed the primary principle for us, the upper demon families, to consider."

"However, this does not mean that the good impression I just mentioned is false."

Seeing Gu Bo dismantling her, Venelana chuckled and did not hide her purpose at all.

"Oh?"

Gu Bo raised his eyebrows and waited for Venelana's next words.

"As I said, Master Gu Bo has already reached the realm of a Transcendent at such a young age. This talent is unique even in the entire history of the Underworld."

"What's more, you possess the power of fear of the Diablo family. Even the potential of your descendants is immeasurable."

"So, if I say I don't have any affection for you, I'd be lying."

Venelana said, a smile playing on her lips.

The purple eyes stared straight at Gu Bo.

This made Rias, who was sitting next to her, feel inexplicably jealous.

She bit her lip lightly, her hands unconsciously clenched into fists, her heart filled with complicated emotions.

"Ms. Venelana, you are so kind."

Faced with Venelana's bluntness, Gu Bo remained calm.

"Well, let's get back to the topic."

"You and I both know very well that the so-called marriage is nothing more than an exchange of interests."

"Tell me, what exactly do the Gremory family want from me?"

Cooper's gaze grew sharper, and he looked directly into Venelana's eyes, as if to see through her heart.

Venelana chuckled and stopped beating around the bush.

"Indeed, as Lord Gu Bo said, the essence of marriage is an exchange of interests."

"? What the Gremory family wants..."

Venelana said, pausing deliberately and turning her gaze to Sirzechs who was standing beside her.

"Protection?" Gu Bo raised his eyebrows, waiting for Venelana's explanation.

"Yes, it's protection."

Venelana nodded, the smile on her face gradually faded, replaced by a solemn expression:

"You should know that the underworld is not peaceful right now."

"Sirzex is still the Demon King Lucifer in name only."

"But in the current situation, Sirzechs has completely lost his former deterrent power."

"Next, those forces that have been eyeing the Gremory family and Sirzechs for a long time will surely take action soon."

"So, we need a strong ally to help us get through this difficult time."
