Horford

**Horford**, Samael Family, supported by Celine in Mechanic contest, dual-specialization like Nate

*Horford is a dual-specialized master, and he is probably the disciple of the Demon Realm's top mechanic master, Nate, so it was understandable that he is recruited by the Crystal Valley. Then, why are these mechanics here...?* Chen Rui suddenly thought that Sabrina once said that Izola "robbed" an important matter she was responsible for and won the trust of Azgalor. *Is it related to this mechanic?*

Chen Rui immediately thought of the duo-specialized master whom he defeated in the Dark Shadow Empire's mechanic contest. It seemed that he actually used his real name. He probably wanted to become famous in that mechanical contest. Unfortunately, he encountered the evildoer Chen Rui and miserably became a supporting character instead.

Not only that, after Chen Rui entered the Crystal Valley as a spy, he also encountered Horford. When there was chaos in the Crystal Valley later, Chen Rui also destroyed the Mystic Valley by scheme. Horford went missing. Unexpectedly, he did not die and returned to the Dark Shadow Empire.

Chen Rui could be sure that Horford and the Bloodfall were absolutely related, and the Bloody Empire's First General Gustav (Bridget) was the current patriarch of the Samael Royal Family. Horford was likely to be an important member of the Bloodfall organization.

## Appearance

Horford wasn't tall. He had a short cyan hair and a mustache. His eyes were particularly enchanting.

## Cultivation

Race: Wrath Royal Family. Comprehensive Strength Assessment: C; Physique: C-; Strength: D; Spirit: C; Dexterity C-.

*Middle stage Demon King, and... he's actually a Wrath Royal Family. I really wonder how Celine found this Horford.*

That discovery surprised Chen Rui. From the data, Horford should be a mage specialized in fire magic.

## Story

Chen Rui took another sip of wine and smiled lightly, "It's time for you to come out now. You've been watching for quite a while already."

A high-pitched laughter sounded, "Master is indeed a master. My sister-in-law is used to being dominant. After experiencing such humiliation suddenly, I'm afraid she'll vomit blood out of anger. Pity my second brother to be the punching bag again."

The woman who spoke was actually Dior's youngest sister, Celine.

Celine grinned, "I know that master doesn't like to beat around bushes, so I'll just say it directly. Actually, my intentions are the same as those of Marianne's. I hope that master can let go of the first place in the contest. In fact, with master's capabilities, it's unnecessary to prove yourself in such a level of contest. However, this victory is too important for me, so I'm here to shamelessly beg master for help."

"I can't be not ambitious. My elder brother's ability is too poor, so my family will be lost sooner or later in his hands; my second brother is almost the same. Although he has a capable wife, she's from the Asmodeus Royal Family after all. So, once he is in control of the family, it will not take long before the family name of Custer to be replaced by Asmodeus. Only I can continue the Custer Family."

Celine said with a smile, "I've finished reasoning, but if master truly concedes, there won't be a lack of benefits. Just now, my sister-in-law, Marianne was just too stingy to only pay twice the reward... Then, I'll give 10 times the reward, and I can pay you half right now."

Chen Rui's eyes lightened slightly: *It stands to reason that Dior's rewards for him must be an astronomical figure. Celine immediately offered 10 times the reward, and she can even pay 5 times right now. This courage isn't something ordinary people have. It seems that this girl isn't simple. Both Dior or Falamo have underestimated this sister who seems harmless usually.*

*No wonder, the unknown mechanic, **Horford** supported by Celine, could reach the final with amazing results and became one of the two black horses. This may not be just luck.*

Chen Rui showed interest, but he shook his head, "I appreciate Ms. Celine's kindness, but I have an agreement with Mr. Dior. I don't want to break my promise."

"Actually, I was just testing master just now. Surely, master didn't let me down. In the Demon Realm, there are very few people who keep their promises." Celine wasn't displeased, but there was a little more maturity and firmness in her smile than didn't match her age, "This kind of man is worthy of me, Celine Custer."

Chen Rui was really surprised. Celine's eyes glowed strangely, "As long as you can help me get the position as the head of the family, you can truly be my man. The entire Custer Family will be yours. You can use the family resources to further improve your skills, and you don't have to wander around trying your luck. If I'm right, your level should already be a real master. The Custer Family itself started from a mechanic, so it's perfect. With ability and potential, even if I'm the head of the family, I'm not wronged to be your woman. I know you like to do things in your own way, so I will not limit you. You can have many women. However, you have to become a member of the Custer Family and our descendants will also be of the Great Demon Custer Family that continues controlling the Custer family. I believe my father, Croz, will be happy to see that. Even if he's not happy or unwilling to let a girl like me to control the family, as long as the situation is certain, he can only face the fact."

Chen Rui put down his wine glass with a little seriousness in his eyes, as if he had only known Celine for the first time. *This seemingly innocent and lovely girl is so ambitious!*
