Demon Emperor Prodigy System

Chapter 10:Big Birthday Celebration

"It has been two years since my resurrection. Only one year until the system unlocks and allows me to unlock my stats window and makes it possible to unlock the abilities window." "I had recently managed to finally increase both my centres to level two, and right now, I have to celebrate my birthday." "I have not realised how much time had passed until I realised my mother is pregnant again. I guess the Demon King has demonic urges." Lucifer looked over at his father figure with worry; after all, he is only two years old and still getting used to having a family. "Over the last two years, I had gotten used to this family and realised that there was no point in any grudges from my previous life since our kingdom were the instigators under my brother Apollos. Not to mention how there would be no point holding a grudge over fallen allies who have never been my allies realistically."

"I have received a gift package from the system and decided to open it on my birthday, but it has been locked until I reach level 5 as a result of unlocking it proved impossible." As Lucifer remembered, he looked disappointingly at the system window with the reward notification; since he could not use the inventory, it's not like he could have stored it away, so it had to stay in his inbox.

Lucifer excitedly looked at his new family as he felt joy. Something difficult to achieve in his previous lives as when he lived as John; his life was miserable. He was an orphan who, after hard work and dedication, managed to get into the number 1 university in his country. But his efforts were for nought as he was murdered during a terrorist attack resulting from the break out of world war 3. On the other hand, in his second life, he was trained from childhood to become the sword and shield of the empire and died betrayed by those closest to him. The sight of a family that actually cared about each other was a shocking, revelation especially since they were demons who are usually depicted as savage and evil throughout history and regions.

Lucifer realised that the victor writes the history as a result: "since demons have always lost, it only makes sense that those who slay the demon king are remembered are heroes to be revered in history while any reminiscence of the demon race is to be persecuted for a war they never wished upon themselves."

As Lucifer stood lost in his thoughts about the immorality of the whole situation, he felt a hand on his back; it was his father; he handed Lucifer a Bracelet and explained, "as long as you wear this bracelet, it will gather mana from around you, and when and if you do ever run out of mana everything accumulated within the bracelet will be absorbed into your centre. Moreover, the mana is automatically refined, so you don't have to worry about doing so yourself, son."

Lucifer bowed his head and accepted the gift; putting it on his wrist, he realised there were light shining on the side of the bracelet with an A for his father, O and I for his brothers and A for his mother with a few empty spaces. So Lucifer asked, " can I get a light for Mrs Talia on the bracelet?"

Talia smugly looked at young Lucifer and replied, "Oh, and here I thought his sin was supposed to be Pride. Aren't you a bit too young for an older sister like myself?"

The Demon King looked over at Talia and started saying, "stop teasing the boy..." but was interrupted.

You could hear a pin drop, not because of Lucifer using a whole sentence but instead because of how embarrassed Talia was. To embarrass the sin of lust, the person had to be skilled.

To break the silence, Awarath the butler brought the food for everyone to feast on during the celebration in demon culture; there was no cake or anything like that; instead, the person whose birthday it gets to pick the number of dishes per the age they celebrate on the day. It gets messy with time, and the number of people invited increases.

After that, Lucifer was gifted a dimensional storage necklace from Iblis and a set of wooden weapons from Orcust, including:

-short sword

-long sword

-a set of daggers

-mace

-bow with wooden arrows

-spear

-battle axe

-shield

-lance

"Since you will start training soon, I got you the highest quality and most impressive weapons I could find, even had the family emblem engraved." "Trust me; I cant wait for you to be old enough for us to spar. I will train you till you reach your limit and continue." As Orcust finished, he looked Lucifer in the eyes, but instead of fear, he witnessed a look of excitement.

"What the he..." Orcust tried to say, but usually, docile Iblis stopped him in his tracks and suggested, "why not store the weapons in the dimensional storage necklace."

As Lucifer finished receiving the rest of the gifts, the celebration continued leaving him with an unprecedented level of happiness, one he never felt before and to think demons would be the ones to provide it.

As the night came to an end, he had a dimensional necklace filled with gifts, a belly filled with good food and received his first kiss from his master Talia (On the cheek).
