DxD: Flames of Eternity

-Aedric-

Looking at the schedule, my grandmother made, while strict is something that I require for my growth and with all my cheats and my family bloodline, I'll be dammed if I let it all go to waste, only if I'm strong can I be free no only the strong has the right to be free.

"When do we start?", I ask looking up,

"Well, we can start right away, and during that time we can get to know each other better as well, and drake I'll be teaching you to mind magic as well, generally as a person grows in strength so does one mind become more resistant to Mindcraft, but learning mind magic will have its benefits both while fighting and increased cognitive abilities when in later levels evolves into telekinesis", grandmother says, then the chair I'm sitting on with me floats in the air.

"Can you and Dad do this Mum?", I ask with pure excitement on my face

Mum has a warm smile, then says, "Yes dear, both I and your dad can do this after all it was your grandma who taught us as well, and your father and grandfather have also incorporated it into their fighting style, and theirs is more destructive compared to mine and your grandma's is more refined, it is also what helped me and your dad achieve the zone, and your grandma is even better than members of House Paimon, who are known for their mastery in Mindcraft, so listen to your grandma and learn well"

"Wait, then what will you be teaching me mum?", I ask

"Well, when you finish your etiquette lessons and pass all the tests then I'll be the one teaching you different kinds of magic, even after your etiquette lessons are done those times will be taken to teach you different subjects, from economics, house duties, management by your grandma and father, leading armies, Arts, fighting by your grandpa, magic by me and lordly duties, politics by your father and grandma again and before you sleep Mindcraft again by your grandma" 

"And Drake if you exceed my expectations in your training then I'll be taking you to a different person who will become your master if you pass the test, and I'll also be teaching you our House arts so that it gives you a basis for creating your fighting style", my grandfather says.

I start getting lost in my thoughts, thinking of different spells and arts I'm going to learn when I hear *Clap* sound, I turn to see my grandmother smiling at me she says, "Well let's start your lessons shall we, we need to get that habit of you getting lost in your thoughts fixed as well, now zep go help out our son you, no need to lazy around here, and the first lesson will be about the general history of devils and then the history of the 72 houses, Six Houses of Lucifer, extra demon Houses and then the fallen and angles and finally other mythologies, understood?", she asked

"Yes, I'm ready but before that could I ask one thing?", I ask with a bit of hesitation

They all nod and I ask, "Is it possible for Albedo to join our lessons?", in response, my grandmother and grandfather have teasing grins and also look at my mum, seeing my confusion she says, "Your father asked the same when we started his lessons as well, and yes it's ok for her to join our lessons", my grandmother says and grandfather continues, "She can join our lessons as well, except for the ones where house secrets are to be taught, hm with her potential that person will also take her as a student as well", he says

"Well, she is the daughter of the royal family and a very strong daemon and instead of a maid we can train her to help you in your duties, an attendant of sorts", my mum says wait, Royal family, seeing my confusion my mum continues

"Albedo is the granddaughter of the current queen, hence is a royal and if you're wondering how she came about to her current life with us, that will only be told to you when you are strong enough, so don't ask", my mum says, I nod

"Then can we start the lessons, mum, grandmother?", with evident excitement I asked 

With that, my mum, and grandmother start preparing books and other materials, while my grandfather leaves to help Dad and send Albedo here, after a while we hear a knock on the door, and my grandmother says to enter, so she enters

"Albedo, it's decided that you will be trained by us to be a personal attendant to Aedric, we will teach you all that we can, except for clan secrets and such, so do you accept?", my mother says

"I accept my lady, I shall strive to meet your expectations", says albedo with complete confidence

"Relax child, I am sure you will meet and surpass our expectations, and you will also have lessons with me and my daughter alone, only us girls similarly how Drake here will have lessons with his father and grandfather", my grandmother says

And with that, my lessons started, and I took my first steps to being free today.

Later That Night

-Zepharion-

I, my son and daughter, wait as my wife returns after the first lesson on mindcraft, but his talent truly is monstrous, to think what took me a week and some days he would get in a single lesson. He must be taught by her, there is no question that she will turn him into a true warrior, perhaps he will be the one to grant her wish, even that girl is a once-in-a-generation talent, maybe even more than me.

With that in mind, just what did that, hag see to send such a talented grandchild here, even more so what she saw definitely involves my grandson, for sure. Honestly today I received more shocks than the last 50 or so years combined, just then my wife entered.

It seems she has received another shock, just what did you grandson of mine, "So how was the first mindcraft lesson?", I ask, wanting to know what he did to shock her or perhaps it was the girl.

"Firstly, are the barriers up?", she asks my son nods while his wife and I, have a serious look on our faces, after all those barriers are almost equal to that of the Satan clans, my wife nods and continuous, "Well firstly, the girl told me that it was a direct order from the queen, to send her to us and not many know of her existence less than 10 according to her and she is extremely talented in the mindcraft, she already cleared her thoughts and can clear her mind completely, then on the other hand we our grandson, calling his talents monstrous is an insult to monsters, he far exceeded all exceptions and cleared two weeks of material I prepared if Beth did not ask me to prepare more then I wouldn't have, and then his mindcraft, he already found his core", My wife says, and lets us absorb what she just told.

"Well, his talent in martial arts is also nothing to scoff at he learnt what took me a week and some days he got in a single lesson. He must be taught by her, there is no question that she will turn him into a true warrior, perhaps he will be the one to grant her wish, even that girl is a once-in-a-generation talent, maybe even more than me.", I say as well, with how they are not to be taught by her is a crime.

But still to think he found his core in one sitting, usually, it takes the most talented even with the help of bloodline and other third sources help takes around 2 months or so, others around 4-5 months, the first is to clear one's thoughts, second is to make the mind completely blank and go through one's memories and come to terms with them and third to find one's core which takes the longest then finally to create a fortress around one's core. Then slowly keep getting better at the same.

"Well, I believe, it will be better if I make sure he has a solid base, then take him to her", I say out loud, it should only take a year or two for that, during that time both of them can finish their other studies as well.

"At this point, even I completely agree with that idea, and I'll make sure he learns all that he must by the age of 10, within a year or two for his etiquette, and side by side you can start both their martial arts training as well, what do you both say?", my wife says and asks my son and his wife

"I while reluctant, agree after seeing his progress today in both his studies and magic craft, even albedo is progressing so fast. And while being weak is not good, but staying weak is a sin, especially with his level of talent, I'm for sure that he will progress even faster when it comes to martial and magical studies", says Beth

"I'll also make sure he gets his lordly duties and house studies progress well, and if required I can get some weapons made by the Norse dwarfs, to entice him.", my son says with excitement 

"None of that shall be done since your father has already brought weapons which can evolve into a higher tire for him in the future, understood.", my wife put her foot down, and well due to that my son's excitement got cut short, hehe those two weapons will be the best gift he receives, I made sure of it 

Well to think that my first grandson would, be this talented. Hmm, I would have to go and have a talk with the queen wouldn't I, I'm sure even Aurelia would want to come with me. Haha, to think that my grandson would give me a headache and shock so many times in a single day, compared to the last 50+ years, it seems the future is going to be interesting.

"Father, who exactly is the person you're talking about and how does this woman owe you, when you said she would be the best master for Drake?", my daughter-in-law asks

"Well, how she owes me, well that's simple I saved her student's life once some 100s of years back and who she is, but of course she is
