3 What was it again?

After replying to his inheritor's question, Agares used [Teleport] and returned to the clan mansion in a room so luxurious that it seemed to sparkle. Senex again was awed by the wonders of magic and the amazing room.

Agares stretched out his right arm forward casting [Clothes Manipulation], produced tight shorts black in color, flung them at Senex's face and said "Wear these, I do not want to see your shriveled prick so you better put them on."

Senex felt embarrassed, his cheeks reddening. Stood up despite his exhaustion and hastily put them on, they were surprisingly comfy, stretchy and had soft texture. Looking at his Master as if waiting for more clothes to appear, he was immediately disappointed and weirded out by what he said next.

Agares continued "And you will be wearing only those kind of shorts until you complete your training. That is due to your situation being precarious, your birth is rather abnormal even by Devils' standard. The vessel, which is your body, needs to feel the direct contact with demonic powers and magic. Do not look at me like that. I will have you know I prefer women over imps like you."

Already annoyed by his Master's insults, Senex could do nothing but swallow his complaint. He knows his Master wants him to become stronger since he is his inheritor. After all, he could have just added someone with better potential as a member of his peerage using evil piece or simply knocked up some woman with his genes and produce a strong offspring.

Senex decided to throw in his lot with this old coot as a Disciple.

And so the disciple unenthusiastically replied with a lazy salute "Yes, Master. Thank you, Master. I will do my best, Master"

The Master stared at the cheeky little shit, having an urge to slap him again, but chose to sigh his annoyance away.

"Now then" Agares started, "since you were just 'born', I am sure that you are tired and need to digest all the new information." He headed for the door only to stop and look at his protege over his shoulder with an almost manic smile "Sleep well, I will pick you up after you had your rest. Your training will start tomorrow" And with that the old monster exited the room.

"Haaaah" I let out a tired sigh after that Master of mine left.

I sluggishly walk to my new large bed, using my last bit of strength I dive into the bed of clouds. 'Soooo tired, dead tired. Don't wanna train. Don't wanna get out. I wanna sleep forever. Ahhh these sheets are soft and the mattress is so gooood~'

Suffice to say, after closing my eyes for a couple of seconds, my consciousness faded due to sheer tiredness.

An entire day passed while Senex slept. Approaching the room where he currently stayed in is the person who will work him to the bone.

Agares kicked the door open and cast elemental spell [Waterfall], waking and drowning Senex simultaneously.

Senex, drenched in water, jumped up in fright. Looked around alarmingly for the attacker, found his Master standing there by the door looking at him with grin while stroking his beard.

'The fucking bastard could've woke me up without having to drown me, a simple shaking or saying "Get up" would be preferable alternative'

Thinking of informing the old fella to use a better method of awakening his precious successor is cut short when I heard my Master say chipperly "A very good morning to you, my unfilial Son. It is time to train, but before that, we will be having scrumptious breakfast. Follow me!"

I staggered forward from what I heard and from not being used to the body. He turned around looking at me weirdly. With doubtful expression I ask "We aren't actually blood related, are we?"

"Why of course we are! One of the main ingredients to make you is using copious amount of my blood. You are 95% skimmed Agares produce, hahaha!" Master fiendishly declared as he laughed his way out.

I could only stare at his back for a brief moment before I had to gather my bearings and follow my...ugh 'Father' to get breakfast.

Following my Master to the dining area took about 3 mins to reach. "So, couldn't we just teleport there rather than walk?" I asked while admiring the fancy large dining area.

All the furniture is made of dark red wood. The walls are painted cream with vines pattern darker shade and the floor made of marble. Large windows to allow sunlight in.

The old man hearing his 'Son's' question replied "We could but I believe you need to familiarize yourself with your new home first." Agares went to take a seat at the head of the table.

Nodding at his words, I take a seat opposite to his. He stared at me with a toothy smile. 'He does realise that his smile is creepy, right?' I inwardly questioned.

.....'I think he wants me to sit next to him' Getting the message I get up and take the seat to his left side.

Seeing that I sat to his left, he cast a spell which I assume is [Audio-Visual Communication]

since he started giving orders for food to a head made of rock with a maid hat on which kept nodding.

Canceling the spell [AVC], he turned to me and said "The person I talked to is the caretaker of this mansion. She is a Golem and her name is Shel. Do not call her Shelly though, for some reason she will attack if you do."

"A Golem maid? and aren't they supposed to be gigantic?" I asked since the hall from which we came from wouldn't fit a Golem.

"Well, yes. But she is able to change her size at will while working in the mansion. And to answer your first question, yes she is a maid and no I do not know whence she came. She appeared out of thin air one day knocking on the door so I let her do the housekeeping. Although I do not know why she wears a maid uniform. Hmmm" My dear Father kept wondering.

After waiting for a few minutes, a humanoid Golem arrived through the double doors. Wearing a traditional maid uniform and a maid hat, pushing a long cart filled with hearty breakfast is a surreal scene but the food made me salivate. Eying the Golem maid Shel with interest I thought 'First time seeing a golem and working as a maid at that.'

When Shel was close, she bowed to 'Father' first and then bowed to me, lifting her head to look at me as if waiting for my introduction. *Sigh* I stand up, bow slightly to Shel, I look at her and say "My name is Se … Se ...? What was my name again?" I look at my Father who starts to laugh loudly.

"Hahaha, you forgot your own name!? Th-this idiot son of mine. Hahaha *cough* *cough*" Seeing her master coughing, Shel offered him water which he gulped down. After calming down he said "You scatterbrain, your name is Senex Agares. SENEX! remember it well this time."

With my cheeks red from shame of not remembering my own simple name, I reintroduce myself "My name is Senex Agares, pleased to make your acquaintance" I once again slightly bow. Annoyed by the old man still snickering, I take my seat.

Shel bowed deeply to her future master and started placing the food on the table.

All in all, the food was to die for.
