"A maid?" Rebel's mind was in complete chaos; she couldn't understand what was going on at all.

First, he wandered around the underworld aimlessly. Logically, since he was near his family, he shouldn't have encountered anything.

Unexpectedly, they ran into a number of mysterious groups, and out of curiosity, they followed them, only to be arrested.

When he woke up, he saw that he was not tied up and had not been hurt, so he thought he had been rescued.

To her surprise, the other party told her that she had been sold into the life of a maid.

"Hey, wait a minute, you're not kidding, are you?"

Rebel's eyes were filled with nervous tears.

“I am the daughter of the head of the Phoenix family. If you release me, I can give you anything you want. As for the maid, I can have my father give it to you as a gift—”

"boom--!"

As she spoke, the demonic bat wings wreathed in flames instantly unfurled behind Rebel.

She slightly opened her mouth and spewed out scorching phoenix fire, then flapped her wings without lingering and flew away into the distance.

As the little princess of the Phoenix family, although she was spoiled from a young age, she was not timid.

When faced with such a situation, how could the first reaction be to beg the enemy?

My words just now were merely an attempt to lull the enemy into a false sense of security.

As for the idea that the Phoenix family's status would make the other party wary, that's even more impossible.

Given the way the Calamity Gang operates, would they back down because of a demon family?

Or rather, even if they were truly afraid, killing her to silence her would have been a better option.

"Humph."

Seeing Rebel escape, Cao Cao remained expressionless, a cold smile on his face.

Su Mu calmly took out an exquisitely crafted card box from his storage space, and a previously acquired rubbing of a Minor Arcana card automatically popped out.

"Four of Wands!"

Rebel's hasty escape was instantly frozen in place.

Rebel was devastated by this outcome.

Sure enough, the reason I wasn't bound by ropes or subjected to any binding spells after waking up was because...

It wasn't because the enemy was careless, but because they felt it was completely unnecessary!

"So, how about becoming my maid?" Su Mu asked with a gentle smile. "I doubt there's anyone else who could buy you from the Calamity Gang like I did!"

Rebel glared at him angrily.

How could a daughter of the noble Phoenix family become someone else's maid?

Even when faced with this threat to their lives, they must maintain the glory of the phoenix.

But... these two guys in front of me seem to be quite strong.

Especially the guy in the back, he looks really fierce.

“Okay, I agree to be a maid.” Rebel obediently lowered her head.

humiliation.

"Then, let's sign this maid contract."

As Su Mu spoke, he handed over the document he had just compiled.

Rebel glanced at the document, which contained content no less than a contract signed by a certain website, and suddenly felt a chill run through her, even in the sweltering heat. She wondered if the world could ever get any better, and felt oppressed from all sides.

"This is so troublesome." Cao Cao's face showed impatience. "Forget it, I'll just replace her with another one. I'll just get rid of this little girl."

"Wait! I'll sign!" Rebel felt like she was really going to cry this time.

Chapter 87 Rebel's Compromise (4/6) (Subscription request)

"The Phoenix family's little princess has gone missing?"

Hearing Grayfia's words, Rias was immediately stunned. The Phoenix family is one of the seventy-two demon families of the Underworld.

Unlike many families that were on the verge of extinction, the Phoenix family was one of the families that suffered relatively little damage in the original war between the three races.

Currently, they can be considered the most powerful demon family in the Underworld, apart from the families of the Four Great Demon Kings.

After all, it's a family that's allied with Rias through marriage, so naturally they'll try their best to choose one that can bring her more help.

Regardless of whether his sister understands or not, Sazex would never let her suffer a loss.

In this respect, the families whose marriage arrangements were resolved through chess by Sona were essentially the same.

Of course, as for why they didn't form marriage alliances with the other Demon Kings' families—marriage alliances inherently represent, in a sense, a form of cooperation.

This is tantamount to sending a signal that the top four companies are forming alliances with each other.

Because of the relationship with the four demon kings, even if they try their best to maintain a fair attitude, it is inevitable that the four families will benefit from it and will have a tendency to surpass the other families.

If the families of the four Demon Kings were to band together again, the demon nobles of the underworld would not accept it.

This would mean that the families of the Four Demon Kings would truly form a closed circle, completely surpassing the other families and becoming the "royal family" of the Underworld, or even the "Celestial Dragons".

The rest of the nobles were merely nobles.

Furthermore, the marriage alliance with the Phoenix family, due to the family's power, means that even if Raiza is temporarily stronger than Rias, Rias will ultimately be in control.

If one chooses another demon king family, the outcome is uncertain.

Therefore, both Sirzechs and Rias's parents had given the issue of marriage a lot of thought, rather than simply using her as a bargaining chip as it appeared on the surface.

However, Rias did not appreciate these gestures.

Rias was immediately surprised when she heard the news that the Phoenix family's little princess had gone missing.

They are a top-tier family, yet their little princess suddenly disappeared.

Then came...

"That's great."

Instantly, a smile appeared on Rias's face.

In any case, the difficulties I need to face seem to have been postponed.

This is certainly something to be happy about.

As for worrying... I can't even solve my own problems, so how can I have the energy to worry about others?

She is not stupid.

Perhaps they have good intentions, but it's foolish to sympathize with others when one is barely able to save oneself.

She had only heard of Rebel Phoenix.

Upon hearing Rias's words, "That's great," Grayfia's expression stiffened slightly.

Then, he shook his head helplessly.

“Rias-sama, it’s fine for you to say such things to me, but please be a little more polite in other situations.”

It's impossible to blame them.

Although they were supposed to be a marriage alliance, there wasn't much interaction between the two families on a regular basis.

Since it's her own territory, Grayfia naturally sides with Rias.

However, if Rias were to say such things accidentally elsewhere, it could cause quite a bit of trouble.

In fact, the effectiveness of a marriage alliance might be greatly diminished.

"By the way, Rias-sama. Although the Phoenix family is planning to postpone the ranking game because of Rebel's disappearance, it doesn't mean it's canceled."

She bowed respectfully.

"If it is proven that Rebel is dead, or that she has been missing for too long, then restarting the ranking game is a normal thing to do."

The earth will keep turning even if no one is there.

Even if someone is missing from the Phoenix family, life will still go on.

"I see."

If Rachel really suffers an accident, the ranking game will restart after the labor pains subside.

However, if she can remain missing, the problems she faces can be delayed for a long time.

Therefore, she naturally hoped that Rebel would remain missing, but safe and sound.

Rias nodded gently, then silently clasped her hands together in prayer, her expression devout.

"I hope Rebel is alright."

I really want to go home.

By the way.

I hope that Rebel's whereabouts will not be found, will not be found, will not be found.

Rias prayed earnestly in her heart.

Seeing her like this, Gurefia shook her head helplessly.

In reality, the ranking game was Rias's last chance to rebel.

In fact, aside from ranking games, Rias has countless other means to sabotage arranged marriages.

For example, we could make sarcastic remarks about Rebel's disappearance right now.

Forget about ever entering the Phoenix family's house in the future; even out of respect for Sazex, they would politely ask her to get out.

However, the only option left for her was the ranking game.

Yes, Rias's resistance at this moment was merely willful.

Whether it's Grefia, Sazex, or Rias, they all know this.
