3 Chapter 3

Opening the door and leaving my room I started to walk down the luxurious hallway that had the Gremory clan crest at almost every turn I kept on walking, while I was walking I passed by many maids and other servants looking at me and whispering

"Omg! It's Lord Gremory" said one maid "Huh what do you mean that's not Lord Gremory" said the maid next to her with a confused expression, the maid quickly said to her " That is the real Lord of the clan he is Lord Zeoticus brother Lord Angel Gremory von Lucifer he has been in seclusion for the past couple decades Lord Zeoticus temporarily took the position until he came back."

I heard many conversation like that while I was walking to the throne room so I can get back my position as the Gremory clan head and can implement some things for the Great War, I'm thinking of training my troops and getting them stronger and myself so we can shine the brightest and maybe reduce the number of devil's dying in the war.

As I was thinking about what I should do with the war I had arrived at the front door of the throne room, the door was huge and it was golden with crimson designs all around it with the clans crest in the middle.

I pushed the door open and when I fully opened it I felt like I just walked into the throne room of the king of Europe. It was so beautiful and looked fitting for a devil noble. After I finished looking around the throne room my eyes landed on the person sitting in the middle of the room where the throne was.

The man or devil had long crimson red hair, light blue eyes and was very handsome looking at some documents while a beautiful woman was standing next to him, helping him with the documents she had long flaxen hair and beautiful violet eyes.

Needless to say the two people were none other than Zeoticus Gremory and his wife Venelana Gremory. They was brought of there work when they noticed me standing there, they were absolutely shocked as they didn't say anything but was just looking at me

I simply smiled at them and said "yo Zeo, Vene how things going" they finally got there things together, Zeoticus started laughing and said "nii-san you finally got out of your room" he had a big smile on as he got up from the throne and walked towards me as he gave me a hug.

I returned the hug as well "yea Zeo can't stay shut for too long as war might be starting" I said as Zeoticus let go of me and had a surprised look on his face when I said war might start. "nii-san how did you know" Zeoticus said, probably wondering how I knew since I was secluded for a couple of decades.

"You can say it's a gut feeling" I said as I went and sat down at the throne. "Hey it's been a while nii-sama" said Venelana with a sweet smile, uhh this girl she is so sweet and beautiful well too bad she is my brother's wife but that's not gonna stop me from going after her daughter Rias hehe. Zeoticus broke me out of my thoughts when he asked me a question I bet he was dying to know.

"Nii-San how was your training what level did you reach" his eyes remained me of a certain girl in an anime I seen that was always curious " I have reached the pinnacle of Ultimate-Class" I said as both Zeoticus and Venelana was shocked at my answer since when I went into seclusion I was at the middle of the High-Class.

"Wow! Your so talented nii-san" Zeoticus said in awe while Venelana also had a face full of awe and respect, I was a little taken aback by there reactions but remembering that Venelana is the strongest women in the Bael family and Zeoticus had always looked up to me.

"I guess but anyway how's things been since I went into seclusion?" I asked Zeoticus to get an update on how the tension has been brewing lately and to see if that crazy bastard Lucifer found out that I am a Lucifer.

" Well things with the Fallen Angels, and the Angels have been getting more and more hectic and war seems to be just around the corner and Venelana had suggested we start training our troops the best we can and get them some good equipment." Zeoticus said that. I had to give Venelana some points for already starting to train the troops for war.

"That is a good idea, we should also recruit more soldiers and train them harder so they can be even more prepared. Oh and also run a check on all the soldiers old and new ones to see if they are some traitors in our midst, I believe that some devils will try to take advantage of this war to take out some of their enemies or try to take out their competition" I said. Venelana had a prideful look on her when I said her idea of training the troops was a good idea.

Zeoticus had a surprised and solemn look on his face when he heard me talk about traitors in our midst. "I'll get the generals to go and find out if there are some traitors in our midst." Zeoticus said with a serious expression, really sometimes he can be serious and not all goofy all the time.

" Venelana, before we start supplying our troops with weapons and armor I will like you to go and buy factories to produce weapons so we can have a monopoly on war equipment and gain a lot of money from the war." I told Venelana that she is great with business and I would like us to gain as much profit from the war for the future.

"That is a great idea nii-sama. I will make sure that we get a monopoly on war equipment. I will go right now to get it down right away, excuse me." Venelana said bowing and leaving to get her job done.

"Nii-San another thing happened when you went into seclusion….Lucifer found out that you are the son of his daughter and told me to tell you to meet him in Lucifaad when you get out of seclusion . Zeoticus told me and I wasn't so surprised he found out so it looks like I need to go and meet the living corpse.
