Chapter 1:birth
My name is sirzechs Lucifer (formerly gremory) I'm known by many names in the underworld crimson haired king of annihilation, a super devil and as one of the devil kings but I'm most importantly known as the strongest devil in existence. These titles mean nothing much to me but what people close to me consider me as loving husband to my beautiful wife grayfia lucifuge. I always helped my wife in all her problems as she is the one most precious to me and I have never failed and I never want to but today after nearly for 1000 years since we got married I have failed in fulfilling her wish to be a mother
7 months ago after 936 years of our marriage, she has been conceived with a child our very own child and with devils, the fertility rate is very low as we are genetically not easily capable of bearing children so the news shook the underworld. but now at our last pregnancy checkup, the report broke our hearts. My wife can't bear a child as she had a particular part of her reproductive system damaged due to the 2 major wars we both were involved in.
Even I have several war scars and permanent mental scars left behind but nothing as bad compared to what Grayfia faces now. I am currently outside the operation theatre and doctors are currently removing our stillborn son from my wife womb while I sit on the floor crying unlike how a devil king, a ruler of the underworld should act but I am helpless as we now face our dreams crushed in front of our eyes.
"Lord Lucifer the procedure is done you can visit your wife now," said the nurse with an understanding voice and it seems like she could understand my plight
"Lord Lucifer you will make it through this I am sure of it so keep calm and move forward" I gave her a warm smile as that is something I would definitely need in this situation
I got up in my feet walking slowly taking each step as though I am walking on a world of thorns and I saw Ajuka my best friend along with the other satans here and Ajuka gives me a brotherly hug trying to calm me down
"Sirzechs this is not the end don't give up man you have always smiled she needs you now more than ever " others gave me a warm smile and I wiped my tears showing a small smile now walking with a steady pace to the Operation theatre where Grayfia is unconscious with my stillborn child on the tray near her bed looking blue and pale lifeless making tears well up in my eyes
I kneeled before my child who was a baby boy and cried not able to see his first cry, first words, use of demonic powers and so much more which we both lost today
'If there was a miracle which could save my child I am ready to pay anything I can with the last of my flesh'I prayed ignoring the headache as the sight of my stillborn son is too much for me to bear
Suddenly from all us satans immense amount of demonic power flowed inside my baby boy covering him in a ball of pure demonic energy doing something to him while all of us stared at him in shock with our reserves drained
Grayfia suddenly woke up in shock and looked at our son who is now visible with the ball of demonic power absorbed inside him and he is alive shocking all of us
"He is alive" I looked at my son who gave his first cry which made me fall on my knees with happy tears falling out of my eyes
"Our son is alive Zechs our wishes were answered by Satan," said Grayfia getting out of the bed to take our son in her arms giving him a warm kiss on the forehead with tears welling out of her eyes in happiness
I took a nearby towel and carefully wrapped it around him making sure not to hurt him in any way
He was a beautiful baby boy with short silver hair and heterochromatic eyes left red, right blue-green like my own a perfect mix of our visual characteristics with some unique energy radiating from him piquing my interest
"Sirzechs lets take him to my Laboratory where we can see how he is absorbing every bit of Magic power from everyone here," said Ajuka earning a smack on the head by serafall who was really angry
"Ajuka Sirzechs just had his son raised from the dead and you want to run tests on him" she was pretty pissed upon Ajuka who was looking at his feet like a kid in punishment
"Congratulations Sirzechs and Grayfia now let us all go to sleep"Yawned falbium as he said ready to doze off any moment
"Let us take him to Ajuka's Laboratory and Ajuka remove the memory of this incident from everyone in the Hospital" my words shocked everyone as they looked at me in shock
"You guys can detect it don't you," I said with them looking at my son with curious eyes as they now feel what I sensed earlier
"He has a Sacred gear and it is active how is it possible for a devil to wield a sacred gear," said Falibium for once his eyes wide open as this is something serious
"along with the fact that with his demonic powers is quite unstable and he is radiating power rivaling that of an ultimate class devil"everyone nodded at Ajuka's words and teleported to Ajuka's Laboratory erasing this memory from all the people in the hospital
(Ajuka's Laboratory)
We all arrived at Ajuka's Laboratory with him giving us a warm towel to wrap my son who is now asleep and still absorbing energy from the surrounding with several power sockets letting their energy flow into him
"He is absorbing the energy from his surroundings which are being used in his growth in some manner but now place him in the scanner across that workstation" Grayfia walked towards the table with several magic circles made to record energy signatures along with several other uses
The magic circles started to move around his sleeping body oblivious to what is being done with him although nothing dangerous but still scary for a barely 1-hour old baby
"The readings are here I will look into it and it will take a few hours for me to give the results but now you should take rest Grayfia we all have been drained of our demonic power so a small sleep won't hurt," he said yawning getting to his desk to look into the readings
"But you should finish analyzing the data asap Ajuka," said Serafall who was also tired
"We will see you soon Ajuka take some rest before looking into the data, "I said and created transport magic circles to take us to my residence in Lilith
(Sirzech's residence)
Falbium immediately dozed off on the sofa ignoring Serafall's pouts as we arrived at my living room but Grayfia was nearly about to faint and is barely awake just for the sake of our son
"Grayfia I will take care of him it seems he feeds on energy I can share my energy with him you go have a sleep" she tried to protest but her body was not capable of holding out any further
She took him to our room and placed him on the crib we had bought for him along with our room converted to a hybrid between a master bedroom and baby's room with a blue wallpaper decorated with shining silver were several extra cupboards filled with baby clothes and other stuff which babies require
"He looks perfect doesn't he, " asked grayfia enticing her hand with mind after making him comfy on him crib
"He is our precious son after all," I said with fatherly pride
"Sleep grayfia for our dear son must have taken my charm" she kicked my side hearing the words before kissing me and going to sleep to let the fatigue take over
I took a chair and sat down placing it near his crib and started to channel my remaining reserves for him to use them in some manner
(1 hr later)
Due to exhaustion, I dozed off on my chair while I kept channeling my demonic power to him as he slept peacefully but a cry woke me up which could be from one person only
"Oh my boy you 're awake I will call your mother," I said before gently waking up Grayfia as I was still a noob at baby management
"Grayfia can you please help he is awake and he needs something," I said while Grayfia's eyes fluttered open with her jumping out of the bed getting to him in an instant lifting him in her arms
she rocked him in her arms and he seemed to slowly stop crying replacing it with a small smile which was the best thing I could watch all day
"see this is your mom and that goofy delinquent is you dad " she pointed to herself and me making many signs to teach him about us making him laugh
"Mom and dad Both love our baby boy very much as who is our dear baby boy," she asked kissing his cheek
"Issei" he squeaked shocking us as how could a kid barely half a day old could talk
"So that's shall be your name small guy, "I said chuckling with Grayfia sniffing out a few tears of happiness
suddenly Serafall entered the room and rushed to Issei's side
"who is our baby boy that's right it is you little fellow say hi to little Levitan," she said making a pose with a peace sign in her hand but his face was that of confusion
"We have named him Issei Sera and that is the first word he spoke you were a few seconds late" she started to let out anime tears hearing her absence during his first words
"No how could you utter your first words without little Levitan here" she started rambling like a little girl she is and with her small baby like body many would surely mistake her for a child instead of a satan class devil and a devil king of the underworld
"Let's give him a bath shall we Grayfia," she asked and they both went to the bathroom with Issei comfortably in Grayfia's hands
I walked outside the room searching for Falbium as that sloth must have slept off in some corner of the house and my guess was right
he was happily sleeping on the sofa set like a log without a care for the world but he does work hard and does a lot of work when needed
suddenly he stirred awake with my phone ringing and it was ajuka who was calling me
"Hey ajuka any new news, "I asked eagerly waiting for his answer as he must have some news to shed some light on the mysteries surrounding my son
"Sirzechs get to the lab quick and don't bring anyone else we need to talk" without wasting any more time I immediately teleported to Ajuka's laboratory haring Ajuka's stern voice as he is always easy going
(Grayfia's pov)
I and serafall took Issei to the en suite bathroom which is now accessorized with several baby products for taking care of my baby
I pulled out a small baby bathtub from the nearby cupboard giving Issei to Serafall who was ecstatic holding him
"Sera fill the bathtub with hot water and regulate the temperature you are the expert in ice and fire magic" I swiftly got my baby back from her as I didn't want to be separate from him and she was making him laugh a bit too well
"Does my baby like having a bath with Aunt Sera and Mama?" I asked him with a teasing look for which he started to pull my cheek with an azure glow surrounding his tiny hand and it honestly stung a bit
'please I don't want to see you without clothes the dragon in my mind says it is beautiful but I feel awkward' I heard a sweet voice in my head I felt like it was Issei's voice
"Issei you can speak to us"Serafall 's head turned 180 degrees and rushed towards us
"Grayfia did he just speak" he put another hand on serafall cheek and she heard something in her mind
"Grayfia how is this possible how could he know words and form sentences" her words made my heard run in laps and it finally clicked
"He said something about a dragon could it be his sacred gear" I looked at my smiling boy not able to crack the mysteries surrounding him
"Let's give him a bath first and then we all can set and see what it is" agreeing to her judgment we went on to give him a nice bath
after giving him his first bath both of us put him up in baby clothes applying several creams on him meant to keep his baby skin soft and safe
"where are Sirzechs and Falbium," asked Serafall after giving issei a nice bath and when our demonic power reserves were depleted due to us feeding him with energy
"they must be in Ajuka's Laboratory" we both immediately teleported there using a summoning sigil kept in case of emergencies but looking at issei we would have to carry this everywhere
(Ajuka's laboratory)
when we arrived we saw Ajuka's laboratory in a bigger mess with hundreds of books and papers littered all over the place and sirzechs and Ajuka were sitting in solitude with Falbium in deep thought not sleeping
"Sirzechs what the hell happened here" he turned around to look at me and his eyes landed to Issei whom he rushed over to look at
"He looks good in those baby clothes we have a lot to discuss "we followed him inside the lab and sat down in a round table while I had issei in my hands who is sleeping happily
"Issei's body is slowly breaking down as he is not able to handle his own powers, he is constantly absorbing our demonic power to counter his own demonic power and his sacred gear is somehow keeping his body in one piece in fact the only reason he is living is due to his sacred gear bringing him back to life currently keeping his living" his words were bland and struck me like a knife but I don't want to think about the scene where he didn't have a sacred gear
"his sacred gear is a dragon in nature he is somehow able to talk to us telepathically and he is able to form full sentences" my words shocked everyone in the table
"how is this possible and your intel does narrow down the options to 2 sacred gears and Issei has one of the 2 because those are the only 2 sacred gears which have a living soul in them" I realized what sacred gears he is talking about and both beacon of dangers of whoever wields them
That's right Grayfia Lucifuge your son wields one of the 2 heavenly Dragons
"did you hear that " I frantically asked and all were frozen looking at Issei
his body started to radiate even more energy and it was draconic in nature something very much familiar
2 White wings of light popped from his back making me nearly lose my hold on him and they were the ethereal white wings of the white dragon emperor
