DXD : Ray Gremory

Soon, the biggest news in a long time swept over all of the Devils domains. In fact, the shock of another Super Devil being born made even the enemies of the Devils become nervous. The Fallen Angels who lived on the opposite side of the Underworld, hated this news the most, while Heaven seemed to not want to make public opinions. Some have tried to say that it was not true, but in time, the facts would not be hidden.

In the following weeks, many factions and noble families made a beeline to the Gremory Territory to see and greet the child and family, to trade in business, confirm the rumors, plus suggest possible concubine-servant and marriage ties.

Families such as the Phenex, the Abaddon, the Glasya-Labolas, and the Astaroth were just a few of the families bringing over their High Ranking baby girls, business deals, and gifts to introduce to Venelana for a marriage. (Ha, you humans can suck it, this is how the Underworld does things.)

Zekram Bael strongly 'suggested' that Sirzechs, Venelana, and Duke Gremory seriously consider the woman who is visiting from his faction, the Lady Katrina Abaddon.

A marriage with the Great King Faction with the next Super Devil would make both sides happy. Especially with the fact that their daughter had just been born, and was not betrothed yet.

Marquee Phenex was sad to find out that his friend's child was a boy, and could not marry her to his youngest son Riser. He was just an adorable child and bringing both families together would have been the best outcome, but alas, Marquee Phenex only has three boys.

After a while, the friends of the family, the Sitri, had given birth to a beautiful baby girl, but sadly, a marriage between baby Ray and Sona could not happen since they are both the next heirs to their families. Serafall was very sad, because she had thought little Ray was so adorable, especially how he giggles at all of her acting.

That August, a shocking bit of news had struck the Underworld. Lord Bael's son was born with pitiful amounts of Demonic Power, and did not have the Bael clan's Power of Destruction. The boy was named Sairaorg Bael. Lord Bael was very upset, and things went out of control in his home.

Ray Gremory's birth and his son Sairaorg had been on completely opposite spectrum's of the Devil Power Scale. One child with the most Demonic Power, and one with the least. To slap Lord Bael's face even harder, the Gremory child was better at the manipulation of the Power of Destruction than even Lord Bael, well with a bit of training that is.

With tensions high between The Great King Faction and Sirzechs Faction, Venelana caved into her fathers suggestion and invited Lady Katrina Abaddon for a second meeting.

And the meeting to no one's surprise, yielded a marriage contract between their children. Not even 4 months old, and poor Ray Gremory would have a wife. From that day on, the two families would have the children meet to get to know one another over the years.

Then the news spread fast that Ray Gremory, the next head of the Gremory Clan would marry the daughter of Lady Katrina Abaddon, whose name was Kuisha Abaddon. The Abaddon Clan is in the Extra Demon families, outside of the remaining 72 pillar families, but their Power of Hole is well known, and she is a fitting pair as a wife. The fact she is a Pure Blood Devil and with a respected status in the Old King Faction helped to quell the rising tensions in the Underworld.

Soon, 4 years flew by in a flash, and the excitement of Ray's birth had mellowed.

-

I am Ray Gremory, and today I am turning 4 years old. The entire mansion is in a frenzy to make a fun party for me.

Normally we Devils only celebrate birthdays occasionally for the fact we can live indefinitely. However, my big brother will have none of that, and demands a birthday party for me every year until I turn 18 and become an adult Devil.

Cough, Well I lied. We noble Devils are really more like adults when we turn 12 years old, and get our Evil pieces to reincarnate our Devil servants, or turn other devils into our Peerage members.

For my Gremory family, we see our Peerages as family, not just servants, and I love that about my family. Many Devil houses sneer at us loving our servants, but what do I care about? If I was a servant, I would like to be treated better, you know.

Currently, I am out front greeting my guests with Grayfia behind me. This is part of my etiquette training to become a good heir for the Gremory. But I started to get bored and wanted to go out back and play with the camels. Just as I started to look like I would run, the strict voice of the head maid scolded me.

"Prince Ray, you would not be planning on shirking your duties, would you? I suggest you stand up straight or I shall let the Duchess know. Oh, your next guest has arrived."

"Yes Grayfia, I know. I was not running this time, geez."

A white limo with the Sitri house symbol arrived, and out came Devils I know all too well. So I slightly bow and greet.

"Greetings Lord and Lady Sitri, and welcome Princess Sona, thank you for coming to my 4th birthday party, please enter."

Lord Sitri, wearing glasses like his daughter, with black hair and blue eyes, was a very professional looking man. And next to him was Sona's mother with black hair and pink eyes, Lady Sitri. Finally it was my friend Sona who will be 4 in a couple of months. She was wearing a simple blue dress with a purple rose on the chest. We play together occasionally, but she likes to abuse me in board games.

Lady Sitri seeing me try to be a grown up, only squeezed my cheeks making me blush in shame for this happens a bit too much to me. Sona came to my rescue seeing my eyes roll.
