*****

Because I was technically a guest, Sairaorg took me inside the mansion and guided me to the gallery room.

There were two couches and one table in the room. On the wall, there was a drawing of Diehauser Belial in his formal outfit.

Sairaorg told me to wait here while he would get Diehauser Belial and informed him about me. The gallery room was on the first floor, while the boy was on the second floor of the mansion. There was a person with an energy similar to Diehauser beside the boy, but the energy was smaller than him.

'It seems that my guess is correct. So Sirzechs wasn't lying when he said that she's still alive.'

A few minutes later, the door opened and Sona appeared from beyond the door with a frown on her face.

"Hey… I am leaving." She said as she entered the room. She closed the door behind her and walked to me.

"Hmm, yeah. If you want to leave, then feel free to leave." I said to her as I waved my hand.

"Tsk!" Sona then clicked her tongue and a blue magic circle appeared under her feet. "Don't cause any trouble."

"Yeah yeah, I know. I can't promise you though." Because I plan to meet the boy even if Diehauser didn't allow me to.

"Do as you please! Goodbye!"

Sona then teleported away as the light engulfed her body, leaving me sitting on the couch alone in this gallery room.

It was quiet, but then I felt that Diehauser had arrived at the entrance. The energy moves closer to this room.

Now, I had no plan at all. To be honest, I just wanted to visit here to meet that boy. I didn't know Diehauser's character. Would he be offended if I say what was in my mind? Would he be offended if I asked him about Cleria Belial?

Should I just teleport for a second to grab Masaomi and took him here? The half-devil, the boy was his son, that was what I guessed.

The energy that felt similar to Diehauser Belial, could only possibly be had by his sibling or his relative. And Cleria Belial was his cousin.

There was a possibility that the energy that I felt on the second floor was Diehauser's parents, but I don't think that was the case.

Diehauser's energy was now in front of the gallery door with Sairaorg. The door was opened and I saw a big man with gray hair enter the room, followed by Sairaorg.

He scanned the room and stopped when he saw me.

"You are Nura Riku?"

I stood up and greeted him with a smile, "Yeah, and you are Diehauser Belial?"

His eyes squinted. He looked at me from shoes to head, and then his eyes stopped at my hair.

"You are similar to him. It's a bit unpleasant." He then smiled, "But your aura was different from Nurarihyon. Well, please be at ease and take a seat."

As he said that, he walked to the couch across from me and sat down. I also sat down. Sairaorg walked to me and sat beside me as if this was his home. He was too relaxed.

When Diehauser sat down, a maid appeared from the door while pushing a tray. There were three cakes on top of the tray, two western teacups with black tea, and one traditional Japanese teacup with green tea.

The maid then put the cake and the tea in front of us. Naturally, she put the green tea in front of me. I looked at Diehauser and he smiled.

"Let's have sake later. I heard from Sairaorg that you wanted to meet me, so I guess tea is fit for a discussion, no?"

This guy knew about it.

"So my old man had visited you before?"

Surely. There was no way Diehauser would know my preference if that old man didn't visit him in the past. My preference was the same with my old man, maybe it was because we were related.

"Yes." Diehauser raised his tea and took a sip from it. "He suddenly appeared in our dining room when I was having a meal with Sirzechs-sama. Not only that, he demanded Sake and meal as if my mansion was his house."

"Hahahahaha," I laughed at Diehauser. "Well, I should've visited with the same way if I knew my old man had visited you before."

Diehauser looked at me with a wry smile, "Actually, I appreciated you more than your father because you visited me normally. However, please do call me first if you wanted to visit in the future. I can somehow guess your intention for coming to my mansion this time."

I took the teacup in front of me and raised it with two hands. My right hand was on the cup's body while my left hand was supporting the cup from the bottom. I took a sip from it and looked at Diehauser.

"Oh? You know about my intention?" I asked him.

"Yeah, somehow. The reason why I leave my mansion earlier was to meet with Sirzechs-sama. I got rather interesting information regarding youkai and the church. I heard that you will have a friendly competition with the church and heaven a day after the peace conference?" Asked Diehauser back.

"So I guessed the reason for your visit. I guess you wanted me and my peerage to take part in the friendly competition?"

While he was not wrong about the information, his guess was far from my real intention of coming here. So I cut him off.

"Unfortunately, that's not the case this time, Diehauser. I will appreciate it if you or the devils join the friendly competition, but that's not the reason for my visit this time."

Diehauser then looked at me with interest. He slouched his back a little and asked.

"So, what's your reason for visiting me this time? Surely it's not because you wanted to have a free meal."

"Yes, this is rather important for me, you know? I wanted to meet with Cleria Belial."

Diehauser frowned as soon as I mentioned Cleria Belial. "Why?" He asked with a different tone from earlier. His tone was cold and commanding.

"Because I wanted to meet her son. Also, my subordinate will certainly be happy if he could meet his beloved again."

Diehauser's eyes widened. He stopped moving for a few seconds before he finally let out a sigh and leaned her back against the couch's backrest.

"Sigh, so he's still alive? Not only that, he becomes your subordinate?"

"Yeah, indeed. I saved him when he was about to die."

Diehauser straightened his sitting position again and smiled, "Thank you. Cleria will be happy to hear this."

I smiled back at Dihauser. "My subordinate was also happy when he heard Cleria is still alive. So, can I meet her?"

Diehauser nodded his head and stood up from the couch.

"Sure, follow me. I think it will be okay if it's you. After all, those old devils didn't have any influence in the youkai faction. So I will believe you. I believe that you will not spread the news about Cleria to those old devils."

"You can trust me in that matter."
