The boy I constantly proclaimed to be born never came, and I was struck dumb holding a baby Rias Gremory, the new Daughter to Sirzechs and Grayfia. Goddamn you, Ishibumi Ichiei!
Grayfia had the biggest smile on her face when she saw the expressions I made, holding my new little Niece who I thought would be a boy.
But just when I was feeling complicated about this twist in fate, the baby Rias held my finger and smiled with her blue green eyes looking adorable, and my heart wavered. She is so cute and innocent, that all of my anime logic went out the window.
As I am sitting on the couch holding my Niece, I said to little Rias.
"Uncle Ray won't let you grow up naive, okay?! Ugh, Why do you have to be so adorable? Now I understand my stupid brother more, sigh. .
. "
Grayfia next to me patted my head and watched my midlife crisis, only scolding me with love.
"Ray dear, no matter how true your words may be, you cannot call the Devil King stupid, alright. And Rias will be happy to have an Uncle who cares.
I promise to not let my daughter become a waste Devil, alright. "
I smile at Grayfia and then think. .
. Rias actually will have it harder as Grayfia's daughter than my mother's, and my mood felt less complicated.
So I said to the head maid.
"Then I leave it in your capable hands sister Grayfia, make Rias a respectable 2nd in line for the Gremory House. "
I know she is only teasing me here like I am some kinda Bro-con like my brother, but. .
. Please God no, don't let me become a Bro-Con! *PAIN*
"Damn Heaven's System! I wasn't asking for his help, you bastards!!!!!!"
Grayfia watching me clutch my head, looked amused, because at least once a month this seems to happen to me. My Human past makes me occasionally talk to God in my head or say something stupid thanking him, and the System punishes me.
When my family asked me about why I do it, because a saine Devil would not, I had given them the reason it was to temper my body against Holy Power, which they all thankfully bought. But shit man, It has gotten better, but comparing a sharp knife stabbing you in the head and a butter knife stabbing you is not much of a difference, right?
"Ray dear, please do not teach Rias to become a Masochist like her Uncle, okay. And are you alright now?"
"No, by the time she is old enough, I will have done Light Tempering, ha-ha. .
. "
At this time, my Mother and Father both came in with big smiles due to the new Gremory addition. And without asking me, she swooped Rias out of my arms and sat while making stupid sounds to make Rias giggle, sigh.
I have been replaced already. .
.
Father covertly waved me over seeing my face, like he was up to no good again. Yeah, my dad may seem responsible and listens to my Mother, but when he can, he pulls mischief that always lands him in trouble with Mom.
But I sneak off to see what he has in store this time.
My Father's name is Zeoticus but my Grandmother Chysis and Mother both call my Dad by his pet name of, Zeo. So when I got to him, he put his arm around me and asked.
"So my Son, you are just about 10, right? Well, while your Mother is busy with Rias, let's let you escape the Underworld just a tad early. You can finally ride our Magic Gremory Train, and we will go to Tokyo Japan, in the Human world, for some business.
You can even go see that place you wanted to go so badly, Akihabara. Want to sneak out?"
Just as I was starting to nod my head in excitement, I stopped, glared at my Father, and said unhappily.
"Wait, the last time I went along with your plan, you sold me out to Mother, and I was in trouble, and you got off scot free. "
Zeoticus looked guilty, a little, and said like a boy-scout.
"I promise on our Gremory name, to not sell you out my Son, now let us go before she gets suspicious, I have already packed your bags, he-he. It is Father and Son day, lets goooooo~!"
I do not think it would be spoiling anything to say, he did sell me out. .

Getting out of the Gremory Town train station, our security guards surrounded us, to let us pass into the terminal. Somehow the media found out that we, my Father and myself, were taking the train somewhere and surrounded us for pictures and questions.
(It definitely was not Zeo for publicity, cough, whistle. )
My Father used to this due to our family's inability to never do anything small, just waved at them with his charming smile. He answered nothing and held my shoulder to shield me from the barrage of questions.
I heard things like. .
.
"Duke Gremory, where are you taking your Son? And tell us about the birth of your new grandchild?!"
"Prince Gremory, tell us about your new fan-club that has recently been growing in popularity, I am also a member, Ufufu?" (Cough, Not started by Grayfia and Sirzechs, nope. )
"Prince Gremory, is it true, are you going to start your Human Contracts soon? Where in the Human world will you go, tell us, so I can move there?"
Sometimes, I forget that my family and myself are common household topics. Well we are a Duke House, and the lack of good entertainment in the Underworld contributes to this.
I just wave and smile like my Mother taught me, and I thought. .
. How will Mother not find out we are sneaking away with the media here? I guess in the future I will have to deal with that, sigh.
As we were about to board the Noble Car behind the engine, the man I have met many times is here to warmly greet us. I may have never taken the...
