You'd think that being the Satan Lucifer's Son granted you the name Lucifer, well it doesn't, Cael's mom, the Lady Grayfia Lucifuge is the Great-great-granddaughter of the original Lucifer, her Grandmother was the offspring of Lucifer and Lilith, who then just happened to end up fucking the Son of Lucifuge Rocale. That child born of them then continued to bred into the Bloodline of The Belphegor Family Family, which then ended up marrying Grayfia's Father.
Caelen, or as he preferred, Cael, was a Super Devil, being born of Gremory, Lucifuge, Belphegor, and Lucifer. He was a child prodigy, proficient with the Gremory's Power of Destruction, Power of Amalgamation, and Power of Twilight, The Lucifuge Clan's Primordial Power of Decay, Lucifer's Primordial Power of Light and Darkness, and the Belphegor Clan's Crack ability.
Caelen trains relentlessly, having received training from Former Dragon King and the former Blaze Meteor Dragon King Tannin, The Strongest Dragon King Tiamat, and Diehauser Belial.
Cael relies more on his Gremory Power of Amalgamation to unify his Lucifuge Primordial Power of Decay and his Lucifer Clan's Primordial Power of Light and Darkness.
Currently, Cael is busily enjoying the time he has with his brother Millicas, whom adores and idolises Cael, while Cael simlly adores Milicas in turn.

It was a heartwarming feeling for Grayfia Lucifuge, being able to watch her two sons - who are essentially mirror images of herself and her husband Sirzechs, - Play together and have a brotherly bond which transcends everything else.
On one side was Cael, a boy who despite being much older than Milicas, took the time to have a relationship with his Brother, where many others would not be so kind as to do so. Cael had the trademark silver hair of the Lucifer and Lucifuge Clan, with her own trademark Red Eyes.
In Stark contrast to his Elder Brother, Milicas was pure Gremory in physical aspects save his eyes, which were identical to his elder brothers. Milicas also inherited the Gremory's Power of Destruction, Gremory Clan's Power of Amalgamation and Power of Twilight, and the Lucifer Clan's Primordial Power of Light and Darkness. However he has thus far proven unable to use the Lucifuge Clan's Primordial Power of Decay or the Gremory Clan's Power of Twilight. However his Aura is almost equal to his elder brothers.
Grayfia adored both her son's, more so when she observed them like this. Cael often called her and Milicas his only real weakness, something that often thawed her stoicism and cold demeanor when on the job.
While she focused on her duties and raising Milicas, Sirzechs, Ajuka Beelzebub, Serafall Leviathan, and Imogen Asmodeus were grooming Cael to one day take over as one of the Future Seven Satan's. Cael himself had expressed an inclination to either the mantle of Beelzebub or Leviathan, due to his own inventive predisposition and his natural charisma.
Milicas of course hoped to join his big brother as the next Satan Lucifer, serving the Devil Race side by side with his beloved big brother.
Grayfia was drawn from her musings when Cael began saying his goodbyes. Cael had sacrificed an hour of training to have two hours with Milicas, but he now had his duties to attend. The Phenex and Gremory Clan's had a longstanding betrothal to wed Riser to Rias, and Ravel to Cael. But Cael himself had a longstanding relationship with Seekvaira Agares.
The Phenex repeatedly tried to disrupt it by brokering the match of Raven Phenex and Seekvaira only to get turned down time and again by Archduke Argos Agares who hoped for Seekvaira to wed Cael and unify the combined genes of Cael's Gremory, Lucifuge, Lucifer, and Bael Genetic Abilities and Demonic Power's with His Daughter's and to ensure his daughters personal happiness as well.
Cael himself knew he could not have Seekvaira unless Rias Married Riser, and if Rias did not marry Riser, then he was obligated to uphold the pact of Destruction and Hellfire. Cael loved his aunt, but he also loved his freedom.
Cael had an hour before he had to go and train with his people. He'd been a driving force behind the Underworld's Special Response unit, Taking names like Sairaorg Bael, Diehauser Belial, Roygun Belphegor, Ruval Phenex and Sona Sitri into his Group.
One of the Mandatory training regimens required the members to have passing knowledge of Senjutsu, Youjutsu, and Touki. The Leaders had to have advanced knowledge in it's usage, application, and deterrents against the three.
The Leaders also received Advanced training in Norse, Fairy, Black, White, Grey, Angel, Fallen Angel, Devil, and Demon Magic from Cael's Queen, Georg.
In addition to learning how to Wield Demon Swords from Cael's Pawn, Siegfried, and learning how to combat against Holy Swords from Cael's Knight, Jeanne. The Underworld's SRU received the notoriously difficult training at Tannin's Mountain.
Cael took great pride in his Status as the Underworld's Greatest Swordsman, having won over The Demonic Emperor's Sword, Gram, a notoriously picky blade. Milicas had also expressed interest in learning about Swordplay from Cael, but Grayfia was hesitant to allow this.
Cael was presently sitting Milicas on his knee, telling him a story of one of the SRU's earlier missions, back before they were the well oiled, efficient, and prestigious unit they were today.
Cael watched from afar as The Phenex Family entered the Gremory Estate, Ravel was with them, Riser, thankfully, was not.
Riser had attempted to get in the SRU, but Cael, Diehauser, Sairaorg, and Sona had all denied him, considering him too arrogant for his own good.
Then there was the added detail that went unsaid, two Son's of Phenex in the SRU Leadership were better situated to press Cael into going through with the Match.
Cael Stood at the Gremory Estate's highest tower, specifically it's balcony. Even as high as he was, only a truly perceptive Devil could spot him, which was a limited number...a limited number that counted Ravel in it's number.
She instantly perked up at seeing him, but he was sick to death of this whole affair, his eyes apparently conveyed this because her face fell immediately.
''Big Brother?'' Asks Milicas.
''Milicas, how would you...my little brother, my...one weakness, like to learn from your Big Brother? Me and you, Mom and Dad won't mind, and you do have the potential to surpass me.'' As Cael made the offer, Milicas began to get a progressively happier look on his face.
In mere moments Milicas had hugged his brother tightly.
From the door Grayfia and Sirzechs watched with small smiles on their faces. Watching As Milicas happily hugged his big brother before the two cast a Magic Circle away.
(Mount Cael, Dragon Mountains, Tannin's Territory, Mephisto Pheles Territory, Gremory Clan's Territory, Underworld, Earth, DxD Universe)
Cael and Milicas arrived at Mount Cael, his mountain within the Dragon Mountains ruled as part of Tannin's Territory, which in turn was part of the inactive Territory of Mephisto Pheles, which in turn stood as part of the Gremory's Territory. Pheles had once been Zeoticus's Bishop, which with his amicable split from The Underworld, Made The Mountains a Gremory Sub-Territory.
Cael himself had been looking into potentially becoming Cael Lucifuge. His Uncle Euclid hadn't been seen in centuries, and The Lucifuge Lands though protected were in disrepair and his mother refused do shit about it. If he became the Lord of Lucifuge he would have the power he needed to tell The Phenex Family to fuck off with their marriage offers, and then take Vaira as his bride, granted she'd likely have to pass the Position of the Agares Heir to her little Brother Sevireun.
But he and Vaira had something real together, he had met Ravel enough times to find her Tsundere personality troublesome. Then throw in that arrogance and overconfidence coupled with Blonde hair and Blue Eyes, it made him feel like he was back in World War II Punching down Nazi's with Diehauser Belial and Sairaorg Bael.
The three of them fought side-by-side with Vasco Strada and Uther Pendragon. Uther led The British Red Lance's, a Volunteer army of Holy Sword Wielders descended from Knights of The Roundtable. Vasco lead Italian Holy Sword Wielders against the Stray Italian Exorcists who supported the Axis.
Diehauser, Sairaorg and Cael himself led the Free French Army into liberating France on behalf of the American Forces.
The Three of them were honored for leading the campaign, Diehauser received a Colonel's Commission, Sairaorg's a Captain's, and Cael a Major's. It was honorary, but Cael did choose to actually serve, he rose up through the Ranks to become a General...
Milicas pulled Cael from his thoughts by tugging at his arm. The Elder Brother smiled at the Younger and the Younger smiled back.
Using Projection Magic, Cael created a small Camp area for him and Milicas to start at.
''Alright Milicas, I was given this little hill as recognition for completing the King of the Mountain. I want you to do what I did. The first fifty levels will be relatively easy, So I'll be watching your progress from here. Tannin is expecting you, I have instructed him to consider this an informal challenge, but that only lasts so long. So to get you accustomed to fighting Dragons you'll have to do three rounds with His Son Bova for your informal Challenge.'' Says Cael as he begins to use Magic Absorbent Paint to place runes on Milicas.
''What are you doing?'' Milicas asks.
''Giving you a little something to help you. This is Magic Absorbent Paint. The runes I'm painting on you have many different purposes.'' Cael says, quickly pointing to the one on Milicas forehead.
''This is Mind Rune, provides stimulus when needed.'' Says Cael.
Cael points to the ones on his chest.
''These are Gravity Runes, at first they place a weight upon you approximately double your own body weight. As you progress through the levels the weight will steadily increase. This one on your Belly is not so much a Rune as a Seal. It will randomly Seal one Demonic Power you possess as time progresses and the higher you go, the greater chance of more than one Power being temporarily sealed.'' Cael tells Milicas before he finishes up, and smiles with some mischievous intent.
Before Milicas can question him, he is dropped through a Magic Circle, letting out a small yelp as he falls through it.
''Heh Heh.'' Cael giggles slightly before lighting the Brazier nearby.

Seekvaira saw the lit Brazier from afar, and knew she had to make a choice...Her Lover or Her newest Love...
Chapter End
Well, that feels like a punch in the stomach having to write that, but that's kind of the point.
Gotta be honest my days are turning to shit, don't got a lot to be excited about, look forward to, or anything. After this I'll likely take a break of two weeks, only to not be able to stick to that.
I haven't been feeling that great of late, my sleeping hasn't been good, my hypersensitivity to smells has gone up, which makes me puke at even the very thought of something rank. Then there is the fact that my old Motorbike injury from last November has reared it's ugly lumbar.
Honestly If I wasn't trying to lose weight, male, and just trying to get through the day I would think I was pregnant...
Seriously though, I need time to think and this site is my only real stress outlet. See you guys sooner than I should...
