Phenex Antagonist.
Raver Phenex was allot of things.
Cousin to the heir of the Phenex clan, an upcoming brilliant devil known for his gentle demeanor and his clever mind.
Born whilst the great far between the 3 great factions was still being warred he was brought up quickly not permitting him to have what many in the future would consider a normal childhood.
But during his time it was quite common for pure blood devils to be raised this way, and properly be prepared for the harsh trials they would surely face in the future.
But Raver took tackled these challenges head on.
Not only did talk and walk far faster than normal devil babies should. He a also took his studies seriously.
Listening to his teachers and tutors with frightening intensity, making many accurate observations of his surroundings and people, even training and studying on his own free time.
His growth was astounding.
Age 4.
"Hello father." said Raver as his father as walked into his son's room without knocking, not that it mattered to Raver because he had already sensed his father's presence approaching long before he even entered.
"Hello son what is this you have on the floor?"
Asked his father curiosity getting the best of him and pointing at the mess of scattered paper's in which Raver was sitting in the middle of.
"Material i am studying father."
Raver's father chuckled at his son's eagerness to learn
"And what are you studying?"
"Runes."
"?!"
Shocked at the bluntness his son displayed and the admission of the dangerous field of study that is runes, his father could only stutter out.
"R-runes! that is highly dangerous for someone so young such as you!?"
"I thought it was best to get a head-start."
"Let me see those."
Picking up a paper and handing it to his father, raver was able to see a sight that would be forever be engraved into his mind, his fathers mouth was wide open, figuratively speaking his jaw hit the floor and his eyes were almost bulging out of his head.
"T-this is a silencing rune with energy suppressant!"
"And?"
"Son."
"Yes."
"You are a genius."
When he turned 5 he could already use supplementary and illusion magic, along with a understanding of devil runes only high class devils at the age of 21 would normally understand.
Age 5
"Son."
"Yes father."
"Stop setting the furniture on fire."
When he turned to the age of 6 he mastered all the basic phenex fire and wind spells.
Age 7
"Father"
"What?"
"Teach me how to use a blade."
"Why?"
"Why not."
"... Good response, but only if you beat me in chess."
At the age of 7 he beat a high class devil of the age 36 in chess. And could easily use and craft advanced runes and rune formulas. Furthermore he started to learn on how to use a sword, showing his clan his eagerness to learn new things.
His father also started hysterically crying manly tears for some reason babbling about genius little children surpassing their father to early.
Henrich was not having a good day.
Not only did he fail horribly in the offensive magic classes.
He also slipped on the way out of class on a banana peel of all things, toppled over and introduced his face to the floor. But the worst part was easily when he fell he managed to headbutt someone in the groin on the way down, that someone was a high-class devil whom usually picked on him with his friends for his minimal skill in offensive magic and his pudgy appearance.
"Ouch, mother fucker that hurt bitch!"
"S-sorry"
"Oh, you will be sorry when were done wit-"
Whatever the bully was attempting to say was interrupted by a heroic cry.
"Demonic Entry!"
And a kick to the face.
Henrich was shocked not only was he saved by someone, but that someone was Raver phenex of all people.
"Why did you save me?"
"Ummm kinda my fault you got into that mess."
"H-huh how?"
"Ithrewthatbananapeelohandbythewaywannabefriends!"
Henrich didn't care about him throwing the banana peel in the end, because quite frankly the only thing he registered was the last part of that sentence
"F-friend?!"
"Yes."
At the age of 8 he showed not only his skills in magic creating his first two high level techniques but also his prowess in hand to hand combat by fighting and defeating 4 high class devils simultaneously.
He also made a friend.
A low-class devil with the name Henrich whom had zero talent in combat and offensive magic, but was terrifying in biology, physics, chemistry, mathematics, strategy and anything that doesn't have to do with magic and physical activity.
Basically he was a nerd.
But saying that Raver or Henrich were good children was far from the truth.
Reality was much more cruel.
They were power-hungry.
They hungered for power and knowledge.
Raver was in truth, a human by the age of 27 whom had lived a good and successful life.
He taken his education seriously, he had graduated collage early and even gotten married.
To bad he was killed by his own wife, being stabbed in the back with a kitchen knife, she easily killed him by severing artery and not being able to respond from the sheer shock of being stabbed by his own wife.
She had also cheated on him with 3 different men on multiple occasions.
But in death he was reincarnated.
With his memory intact.
Devils empowered with the 1 or more of the 7 deadly sin's tended to be more powerful or successful.
Fueled not only by his wrath for humanity and the unfairness of the world, His greed and lust for power and knowledge, Pride knowing he had the ability to attain these things and envy for those whom already had them.
It was no surprise he progressed so quickly.
Normal children didn't have any ambitions nor did they strive to accomplish anything special.
He was not normal.
Henrich was similar, not in the case of reincarnation.
But.
He was bullied as young.
And he wanted to prove himself.
He was envious of the high-class devil's whom could easily perform offensive spells and use demonic magic so easily whilst he struggled and failed time and time again.
He was also greedy for knowledge, and wanted to have more of it each day.
He lusted for war, actually nothing made him harder than the act of war.
He was a glutton as well.
Together these two would cooperate to achieve their respective goal's.
