While Garuda and Feng Shui were engrossed in their study, Kobayashi Rindou walked directly to Lucifer and the others with her phone in hand. Lucifer was taken aback and looked up at Kobayashi Rindou, while Cerberus also looked wary.

Kobayashi Rindou waved his hand, sat down next to Lucifer, and said with a mischievous smile, "Don't worry~ Aren't you Bai Yu's family...? Then you should be in the group too~"

"Ok?"

Kobayashi Rindou picked up the phone that was next to Lucifer, fiddled with it for a while, then placed it in front of them, said "Don't be shy," and ran back.

Lucifer picked up his phone and glanced at it. Cerberus leaned over to look too. Lucifer looked at the chat history and then smirked, "Interesting..."

You should address the guild leader as: "Eh? A new member has joined~ They were invited by Longdan~"

Hell CEO: "Hello everyone, I'm Lucifer~"

"Welcome, welcome!"

The dating guru said, "Wow, another CEO. Bai Yu could live off a woman and still not starve..."

"Hahahaha!" xn

Lucifer was clearly having a great time chatting, and Cerberus, watching from the side, also found many people quite interesting. Because of Lucifer's joining the group, many people got out of bed and chatted for a while.

Hell CEO: "So what kind of athlete is Bai Yu? And what is that Fighter?"

Rindou Kobayashi and the other two looked up at Lucifer, and then Rindou Kobayashi typed on his phone: "Kengan Tournament, an extremely violent and brutal fighting competition, and Shiraha is one of them. He has not lost yet."

Lucifer and Cerberus looked at Bai Yu, who was being bothered by Wu Lei'an from time to time, with astonishment. So this was the kind of sport Bai Yu was talking about?

You should tell the guild leader: "Darling, tell Bai Yu that he has to help me this time. I will go to see him in three days."

Kobayashi Rindou and the other two were taken aback; it was the first time they'd seen Momobami Kirari so serious. Kobayashi Rindou called out, "Shiraha! Kirari said she'll come see you in three days—it's important!"

Bai Yu simply responded and said nothing more. On the other side, Erina finally struggled to finish her dish, which made Akane Kubo Momo feel very ashamed and almost doubt whether what she was eating was actually food.

"The God Tongue is truly a terrifying ability... Eri, how do you think Gaolang and Shopkeeper Shiraha know each other, and what about that monster named Raian...?"

Tonight, Momoko Akane's worldview has completely collapsed. Is this how people fight? It's outrageous!

Erina wiped the sweat from her forehead, thought seriously for a moment, and then said, "I don't know~ I don't even know what kind of sport it is..."

Momoko Akane rolled her eyes. It seemed she still had to ask Rindou about this, but whether she could even get the answer was another matter entirely...

Chapter Thirty: A Reasonable and Justifiable Misunderstanding (Please add this to your favorites!!!!!!!!!)

Because of their small appetites, the two ate very slowly, but the others didn't find it boring. They gathered together to chat, making it quite interesting.

Lucifer even ran upstairs to Cerberus's room to get her a cell phone, and then she was shocked to discover that Kobayashi Rindou and the others had the same cell phone as hers!

After Cerberus joined the group, he said, "I am also a member of my master's family." This caused everyone who was spying on the chat to suddenly come out, and the situation got out of control for a moment. Even Kobayashi Rindou was stunned for a moment.

Then she ran straight to Bai Yu's ear and whispered, "So you like this kind of thing, Master~"

Bai Yu was taken aback, but seeing Lucifer's helpless expression and Cerberus's ears twitching as it played happily, he instantly knew what was going on. It must be Cerberus calling him "master" in the group chat...

Bai Yu didn't say anything, because up until now, they all thought that the different times of many people in the group were due to time differences in different countries, but in reality it was because of different worlds.

When the group members saw the photo of Lucifer and Cerberus together, they all said that it was beautiful and cute, and that they also wanted a Cerberus ear headdress and a Lucifer headdress with imperial horns and a halo of thorns.

That's right, they still thought these two were human, and that their ears and horns were ornaments, but in reality they were real. Because all the words could be mistakenly interpreted in a logical and plausible way, the conversation actually went exceptionally smoothly!

Bai Yu was quite surprised at the time, because he really couldn't imagine how a chairman of a board could get together with a scientist to talk about how to make money. At the time, Bai Yu almost wondered how they could connect two unrelated things.

Bai Yu didn't expose these things. After all, people from other worlds always felt that they knew that they were from another world, and people from this world always felt that they were chatting with people from their own world, without even a hint of doubt or strangeness.

The two didn't finish eating until very late. Both of them needed to conserve their energy, so they didn't linger. They just said "see you later" and left. Garuda and Wu Fengshui both seemed like they hadn't had enough time.

Finally, thinking of her grandfather's appearance and the things she had to do the next day, she reluctantly said goodbye to Kobayashi Rindou and Lucifer.

In a short period of time, both Cerberus's adorable naiveté and Lucifer's queenly tone and girlish curiosity made everyone feel very good about these two new members.

After Wu Lei'an and Gaolang left, Kobayashi Rindou put away his smile, crossed his arms, sat down in a chair, and looked at Bai Yu who was reading a book, and said softly, "Bai Yu, Kirari said she is coming to see you in person. It seems you have to go this time."

Lucifer and Cerberus also knew who Kirari was. Although they weren't close, they were at least friends. As for Erina and the others, they sat quietly to the side.

Bai Yu said softly while reading, "It seems that idiot Qi Luoli has gone too far. But what you said is true; her coming in person is enough to prove that she can't handle this."

Kobayashi Rindou sighed and said, "The only ones who would dare call Kirari an idiot are you and those few machine brains~ I really don't know why you people are so smart~"

Bai Yu curled the corners of his lips and said casually, "It's a very simple matter, just a matter of reaction speed. Aren't you guys leaving? Don't the Ten Heroes have to attend classes?"

Before Kobayashi Rindou could speak, Erina proudly declared, "Of course not~ There's no need to attend unnecessary classes. The Elite Ten need to conduct research in their second year and travel the world in their third year. As for me, I have to do all sorts of food tastings and practice every day, so classes are just for show for the Elite Ten~"

Bai Yu nodded without saying anything. The level of the Ten Outstanding Individuals was quite high, but to him it was just average. However, being able to become one of the Ten Outstanding Individuals also proved one thing: their talent was sufficient.

Erina expected that Shiraha wouldn't show any surprise, because she was absolutely certain that Shiraha's cooking skills were so good that she could easily defeat Tsukasa Eishi with one hand, so she had no reason to be arrogant.

Thinking of this, Erina whispered, "Manager Shiraha, I can learn in person..."

"Okay~"

"I can...wait, you just...agreed like that?"

Bai Yu chuckled and said, "Of course, I knew that his proud granddaughter would be brought here sooner or later after the old man told me about the field study. Now that you're here, it's also something your grandfather decided back then."

Erina was taken aback and asked in confusion, "Huh? Wasn't the notice just issued in the last couple of days?"

Bai Yu closed the book, stood up, looked at the message on her phone, sighed, and said, "That's right~ But the old man told me about this a year ago, so Miss Nakiri, you're a year late~"

Erina nodded blankly. A year ago, she was still in junior high school, which was also the busiest time of her life, even busier than she is now. But she was glad that she could stay.

"I'll come again when Kirari arrives in a couple of days~ Erina, let's go~"

Erina nodded and was about to ask how much it would cost when she saw Shiraha smile and say, "No need, you'll all be coming to work soon anyway, I'll deduct it from your wages~"

"Huh?! You can get paid for fieldwork?!"

Erina's words made Kobayashi Rindou sigh. He immediately pulled Erina out, said goodbye to Lucifer and Cerberus before leaving, and then left with Erina, who still looked puzzled.

Bai Yu smiled and shook his head as he watched Lucifer and Cerberus still chatting, then turned and walked towards the door. Cerberus immediately threw down his phone, stood up, and called out to Bai Yu, "Master, Master, Master! Where are you going~"

Bai Yu didn't bother to hide anything and said directly, "Go get the package~ Cerberus, you..."

"I also need to go!"

"Alright, Lucifer, are you coming?"

"I'll mind the shop..."

"Alright~ Cerberus, let's go~"

"Ok!"

Cerberus abandoned his new friends and went to stick with Bai Yu. Lucifer, seeing that he was the only one left in the shop, suddenly felt a little lonely, though he didn't know why.

She usually works alone, and her castle and palace halls are hundreds or thousands of times larger than this place, but she never feels this empty.

After thinking for a moment, he chuckled self-deprecatingly and said, "It's really getting stranger and stranger..."

Thinking of this, Lucifer inexplicably sent a message in the group: "Bai Yu and Cerberus went to pick up a package. What do you think it is?"

It was originally just a joke, and she even found it funny and wanted to take it back after sending it. But to her surprise, everyone in the group simultaneously replied with the same word: "CD~"

Lucifer was stunned. A CD? What would Bai Yu use that for?! But she quickly figured it out. Someone must have given it to Bai Yu, and not just once, and this person definitely wasn't in the group... (Welcome to the large-scale series: Detective Hell Queen checks group members online...)

Chapter Thirty-One: Cerberus's Life Contract (Please add to your favorites!!!!!!!!!)

When Bai Yu arrived at the courier point, he saw that it was already closed. Cerberus looked at the closed door and was about to punch it when he saw Bai Yu take out a key from his pocket and open the door.

Cerberus exclaimed in shock, "Master, master, master! Are you still a deliveryman?"

Bai Yu was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and shook his head, saying, "Of course not~ I know the owner of this shop very well~ so over time he's come to trust me~ He sometimes even asks me to watch the shop during the day~"

"Oh oh oh!"

After receiving the package, Bai Yu locked the door again, then glanced at the small box in her hand, smiled, and shook her head, saying, "Just like a little kid~"

Cerberus was taken aback, looking at the box in Bai Yu's hand and saying, "Master, master, master! What is this?"

Bai Yu thought for a moment and came up with an explanation the dog could accept, saying, "This is for watching movies~ and kids can't watch it~"

Cerberus was taken aback, then thought for a moment and said, "I can watch it! Master, master, master! I want to watch it too! What movie is it!"

Do you know what a movie is?

"I don't know! But I want to see!"

"Alright~ But be careful not to have nightmares~"

"would not!"

Cerberus clung to Bai Yu, so the two walked very slowly. However, Cerberus seemed quite happy. Then, it suddenly paused, its ears twitched, and it looked up at Bai Yu, saying, "Master, Master, Master!"

"what happened?"

Cerberus pursed his lips and said, "Why did Master accept me so readily back then? And why was he so good to me?"

Bai Yu was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and patted Cerberus's head, saying, "Because Cerberus fulfills all my requirements for a pet, and..."

Cerberus said anxiously, "And what?!"

Bai Yu said very seriously, "Being kind to someone doesn't need a reason; you can just follow your subconscious thoughts. That way, no matter what happens later, you won't feel regret or remorse. However, I do think Cerberus's arrival is a very good gift for me."

"Gift?!"

"Hmm~"

"No reason needed... Master, master, master! Let's go home!"

"Good~"

Seeing Cerberus's tail wag and leave a phantom image, Bai Yu smiled and patted Cerberus's head. Cerberus grinned foolishly, seemingly thinking of something, but then hugged Bai Yu even tighter.

Just as Bai Yu was unaware, another mark appeared on his hand. It was a strange mark, just like Lucifer's mark, but it wasn't bad-looking. It had three identical small heart-shaped marks on it, but Bai Yu didn't notice it.

Back in the shop, Cerberus was still clinging to Bai Yu as if he were glued to her. Lucifer was slightly taken aback when he saw this, squinted at the back of Bai Yu's hand, and then showed a slightly surprised expression.

Lucifer stood up and said, "Cerberus, going upstairs to sleep."

"No, no, no~ I won't sleep until Master sleeps!"

Bai Yu smiled and said, "Go and rest~ Otherwise you won't have the energy to watch the movie tomorrow~"

"it is good!"

Lucifer looked at the unusually obedient Cerberus and sighed, saying, "You've really got him all figured out. Let's go."

"Oh!"

Just after Cerberus and Lucifer went upstairs, a detached voice suddenly rang in Bai Yu's ears, saying, "The life contract of Cerberus, the hellhound, is of immeasurable value."

"A life contract?"

"If you die, she dies; if she dies, the contract is dissolved..."

After saying that, there was no more sound. Bai Yu was slightly stunned. This contract completely put his life in Bai Yu's hands. Bai Yu thought of Cerberus's earlier muttering that no reason was needed, and he knew what was going on.

Bai Yu sighed and said, "I'm really touched... This girl... Now you can't leave even if you want to..."

In Lucifer's room, Lucifer said to Cerberus, "Come out, all of you."

Cerberus pursed his lips and then slowly split into three identical Cerberus. Lucifer sat on the bed with his arms crossed and said with a strange expression, "The three of you actually agreed to sign a life contract? Are you out of your minds?"

Standing in the middle, Cerberus said firmly, "In all my life, my master has been the best to me! And in my master's words, I act according to my subconscious! You don't need a reason to be good to someone!"

"so?"

"Therefore, Cerberus only recognizes this one master! It will never recognize anyone else!"

"Aren't you afraid..."

"The verdict has arrived! We will protect our master!"

"No... I mean, aren't you afraid that if something happens to Bai Yu, your life will be in danger too? You've only known Bai Yu for two days!"

"I'm not afraid! I won't live anymore if my master is gone!" x3

"And I can feel that our master truly cares about us!" x3

To be honest, Lucifer was truly shocked. It was the first time she had ever witnessed the loyalty of a dog, and she also learned the extent of a young girl's love for someone she admired after falling in love.
