Child of the Devil

"It is truly saddening how the Universe ended."

A man clad in white spoke and looked over the young man beside him.

They both stood at a peculiar place which no normal beings could ever imagine to be.

Outside the Universe.

"It seems that even gods have tendencies of ending themselves in a war. Just as mortal beings do."

"You are correct. Even gods aren't different from mortals."

The young man had beautiful and silky black hair paired with majestic golden and crimson eyes. His face was too handsome and beautiful at the same time. Too much to even describe with words.

"That goes to say, in the end everything is yours to receive."

The man clad in white flashed a smile and reached out his hands which held a glowing golden orb.

"Take it. As a mere fragment of what I used to be, I can no longer wield this power. You are the last of what is left of the Universe. You may not be able to wield its complete power, but you may materialize it to your will and slowly make it your own strength over time."

The young man received the golden orb which was absorbed into his body. Seeing this, the man clad in white gave out a sigh as his body slowly started to dissipate.

"I think you should know what to do next after fully integrating the power of this Universe into you. All that's left now, is your father's inheritance. To be more exact, his name."

The young man didn't say anything as his thoughts pondered of his father.

The first creation of the Biblical God, Lucifer Morningstar. Mainly known as the Devil himself, Satan.

Seeing his pondering expression, the man explained further.

"The name Lucifer Morningstar, the being of perfection, is truly yours in the beginning. Your father, was merely a vessel for it as the name of what a being above perfection should wield.

After his corruption, he also left his name behind. Now, it is yours. Do not think of it as stealing his identity, but as taking it what was truly yours to begin—"

Before the man could finish talking, the young man stopped him from speaking.

"I appreciate your concern, but I am not someone to take my father's original name.

My name is Luxis.

'Lux' which means light and 'is' which comes from the word 'tenebris' meaning dark, for I am the child of my mother Gabriel and father Lucifer."

The man didn't speak for a while and only gave a small nod.

"Understandable. However, it seems we are running out of time. It's time for you to go."

The man clad in white clapped his hands twice as the young man slowly disappeared with a white glow surrounding him.

"This is goodbye now Luxis."

Luxis gave the man a small grin.

"Farewell, Biblical God."

Slowly, Luxis disappeared from the spot while the Biblical God just stood with a smiling expression.

"My archangel Gabriel, my first creation Lucifer, the seed of your union would no doubt blossom into the peak.

Sadly, I would no longer be there to witness it."

...

"Quickly now your majesty, push harder!"

Three women wearing the clothes of maids supported a beautiful lady, struggling with pain as sweat dropped from her head.

"The child is almost out! A little more harder!"

The beautiful woman in picture was currently giving birth. The sounds of her painful struggling was heard outside the room where a ruggedly handsome man walked in circles.

"Father, is mother going to be alright?"

The man heard a childish voice speak beside him. There, stood 3 children. Two were boys which one looked like a 7 year old while the other looked about 5 years of age, the youngest child was a cute little girl.

The father of the children didn't know what to answer and merely gave out a reassuring nod.

However, he was sceptical of what could happen tonight. His wife's previous childbirths wasn't like this before to cause her pain.

His worrying thoughts only grew bigger and bigger, until the painful screams stopped and after a while, one of the maids tending the woman give childbirth came out the room.

"The child was successfully born and is a healthy baby boy. As for her majesty... she didn't make it.", the maid had tears dropping down her eyes.

The man stood in shock as the eldest child's eyes had formed tears. The second and third child didn't understand why the atmosphere suddenly grew heavy.

"Father, is anything wrong?"

The man didn't seem to hear the question and spoke heavily with a choking sob.

"I don't want to see the child, get rid of him from this kingdom."

...

Several years later.

A young boy at the age of 7 was currently sitting down near the trees of a nearby forest as he gathered up energy for his cultivation.

The energy around him swirled furiously and was sucked into his body, making the boy breakthrough.

Name: Luxis

Age: 7

Bloodline: Devil (Locked) Angel (Locked)

Cultivation Rank: Apprentice Rank - 4th Stage

Elemental Affinity:

Fire (Level 1)

Water (Level 1)

Wind (Level 1)

Lightning (Level 1)

Earth (Level 1)

Wood (Level 1)

Dark (Level 2)

Light (Level 2)

Space (Level 1)

Time (Level 1)

"Oya, in a short span of 2 weeks after my soul fully integrated with my new body, I have broke through 4th stage Apprentice Rank.

Not only that, but this ability sure is great. Since I still couldn't control the power of the Universe, I materialized it into what humans call a 'system' back on Earth."

Though, their definition is definitely too much. Weapons appearing out of nowhere? Humans surely dream big."

The boy, was the very same being that was the last survivor of his Universe. After 7 years of his soul to fully integrate with his body, he was quite surprised to see the current situation but soon recovered.

It was clear that this was a completely new world where strength and status ruled. He was an orphan that was most likely abandoned by his birth parents and lived off as an errand boy to a merchant.

It was already lucky enough to his life when travelling to other towns, there were very little amount of bandits around those towns therefore one could understand how his luck was.

However it all changed after he fully took over of course. He cultivated for 2 weeks and already broke through 4th stage Apprentice Rank.

It was too bad that the energy in this place wasn't very concentrated and his bloodlines was sealed otherwise he would have been much faster.

Speaking of which, he also had all the elemental affinities in this world. Usually, the person with the most elemental affinity only had four but became a legendary figure around the world.

Not only that, but those who could cultivate could increase their lifespan and each rank had 9 sub stages each. Currently, the ranks he knew of were apprentice rank, novice rank, true rank, master rank and grandmaster rank.

The king himself was grandmaster rank, there were higher ranks most likely since the kingdom he was at was merely a low ranked one.

Even the people that could cultivate was like a fusion of a warrior and a mage. Unfortunately, not everyone could gather energy and therefore, were just normal commoners.

If he could find a place where energy was more concentrated then he would get stronger more faster.

But those places were all guarded and territories of strong people, therefore if he wanted to go to a place like that then there would only be one place.

Since the time he had arrived, he wasted no time and gathered information and found a place where young talented people like him could go.

The Hidlet Academy which was where most people from low ranked kingdoms attend to further sharpen their skills.

And speaking of which, he clearly planned to join the academy in the first place therefore he knew exactly that an envoy from there would be arriving today. Which was also the reason why he reason he tried to get a lucky breakthrough to the 4th stage of Apprentice Rank.

If one wanted to get resources, then they need high talent but would attract unwanted attention. But clearly, he didn't care about those since he was pretty much safe in the academy.

But he of course wasn't stupid enough to show all of his affinities otherwise, he would either get killed by the jealousy of other people or be showered with too much attention, not that he was afraid of showing when he gets stronger in future of course.
