Chapter 61

READER'S POV

After the revelation about me being the human Lilith's descendant and a descendant of a Demon Tamer, we moved into one of the living rooms where we could relax after today's events. I was also getting to know Clayton after he revealed that he's my father.

"Here you go. It's a special Mandragora blend," Barabtos said as he gave me a cup of tea.

"Thank you," I smiled before I took a sip.

"Yay! Afternoon tea prepared by Barbatos!" Asmo grinned.

"I'm curious, how do you know Diavolo and Barbatos?" I asked Clayton.

"They're old friends of the family. Well, my side of the family anyway," Clayton mumbled that last part.

"So you two knew what I am and didn't say anything?" I asked with a small frown.

"I suspected it as much, but, Clayton wasn't sure if had inherited the gene until he heard rumours about you," Diavolo explained.

"I see, so you've been hiding in Devildom this whole time haven't you?" I asked Clayton.

"Yeah, that crazy old man wouldn't think to find me here."

"But, is he still out there?" I asked in a concerned tone.

"No, my familiar told me that the hunter's organisation was disbanded after Diavolo announced the exchange program. Plus that and your grandfather had no one else aside from your uncle helping him find every last one of us and take out all of the demon race," Clayton explained to me.

"Should I be worried him too?"

"No, not at all. Like your mother, your uncle, Alister, doesn't think like your grandfather so as soon as the exchange program was announced he left his old man and decided to look for you on his own."

"Does he know about you?" Raven asked him.

"Yes. In fact, he was the one who helped me track you down. You'll get to meet him once the exchange program is over," Clayton smiled.

I smiled back before Mammon spoke up, "Hey...hey, (Y/n), wanna try some of this> Oh, ya gotta try these muffins here too!"

"Here, I'll give you this piece of cake as well," Satan smiled as he also offered me some food.

"Pff...Satan, that's way too big! lool," Levi laughed.

"I was planning on eating this myself, but here, you can have this scone too, (Y/n)," Beel offered which took me by surprise.

"...! Did Beel just give his food to someone ELSE?! ...BEEL!" Asmo shouted with a shocked expression.

"Are you guys trying to give me diabetes?!" I asked with a surprised look.

"Hey, don't snuggle up to (Y/n) like that, Asmo. You're too close. I'm the one who gets to sit next to (y/n). Don't you butt in," Belphie frowned.

"Aww, come on. Can't you see that I love (Y/n) so much I can't help it? You can have (Y/n)'s right side, Belphie. That's all you need, right? The left's all mine, 'kay?" Asmo spoke as he snuggled up to me which made me blush bight red.

"No fair...I want to sit next to (Y/n)," Beel pouted.

"Y'know what? You're ALL too close to (Y/n)! get away! Go on, shoo!" Mammon tried to move them away from me.

"BACK OFF ALL OF YOU!!" Clayton shouted angrily before Asmo, Beel, Mammon and Belphie were sent flyinig and they were pinned against the wall.

I was shocked how that happened before turning to look at the sorry state they were in. There were glowing red pins on their wrists and ankles.

"What the hell!?"

"What kind of magic is this?!" Mammon and Asmo shouted while Clayton chuckled with a smug look.

"Binding magic, a demon tamer's special trick when it comes to capturing a demon. That's you idiots get for being too close to my little girl! hahahahaha!!" Clayton laughed while I sweat dropped.

'This guy is even more overprotective like Raven,' I thought to myself before I frowned at Clayton.

"Hey old man! let them go!" I shouted at him.

"No way, they can stay up there for all I care," Clayton smirked before I gave the puppy eye look.

"Pretty please, Dad...?" I asked and then his eyes widen.

"*sighs* fine..." Clayton grumbled he clicked his fingers and then the four morons fell onto the ground and groaned in pain.

"Honestly, you guys find out that she's Lilith's descendant and then all of a sudden, you're spoiling her. That's a parents' job you know?" Clayton frowned while they glared at him.

I chuckled at this sight before Levi spoke up, "Ugh, it must be nice being so popular, you...you NORMIE! ...Um, but you're the one normie I actually like, okay?"

"*Sighs*" Satan sighed.

"All of you, that's enough. You're making (Y/n) uncomfortable," Lucifer scolded them.

"Hahaha! There must have been so many things you've all wanted to do for Lilith over the years," Diavolo commented while I sat there with a worried look.

"...Is something the matter, (Y/n)?"

"Barbatos, do you think I've warped history?" I asked him.

"That's a good question," Raven spoke with his mouth full of scones.

"Don't talk with your mouth full!" I scolded him.

"Ah...I take it you're worried about the other (Y/n)'s disappearance?" Barbatos asked and I nodded my head.

"Oh yeah...I thought I was gonna have a heart attack when that happened!" Mammon spoke up.

"Ah, right. You mean when the other (Y/n) vanished in that cloud of smoke?" Asmo asked before Barbatos explained to me.

"I know I told you that I have the power to see both the past and the future, but the truth is that there's one more secret - something I still haven't mentioned. You see, I have the power to select from any number of different potential realities and make any of them into the sole reality. Within the various potential realities, there are an infinite number of versions of (Y/n), however, in the sole reality I chose, the one and only (Y/n) is the one right here. That's why the previous (Y/n) disappeared while the you remained."

'I have no idea what the hell he was talking about...' I thought to myself with a dumbfounded look.

"You know, I notice how you sort of smiled as you said all that, but...um..." Asmo trailed off.

"As far as abilities go, that's a pretty powerful one to have, don't you think?" Satan asked.

"The Legend of Barbatos: Most Powerful of All Beings..." Levi randomly spoke that title.

"Eh, details. Who cares about all that complicated stuff?" Mammon asked.

"Good point. It's thanks to Barbatos's powers that we're all together like this," Beel smiled.

"Here (Y/n), have another cup of tea," Belphie offered.

"Ooh, let me pour it!" Asmo smiled.

"Oh no you don't. I'm pouring!" Belphie spoke with a frown.

"Yo, morons! I'M the one who pours (Y/n)'s tea...ALL of it!"

"STOP IT!!" I shouted before I bashed their heads with my fist.

BONK! BONK! BONK!

"OW!!" The three of them shouted with bumps on their heads.

"Hahahaha! that's my girl!" Clayton praised before he ruffled my hair.

"Honestly, you're all hopeless," Lucifer grumbled.

"Hehehe..." Diavolo chuckled.

"What's so funny, Diavolo?" Lucifer asked.

"I told you, didn't I Lucifer? I told you encouraging exchange between humans, angels and demons would end up being advantageous to us. And see? I was right," Diavolo smiled.

"What can I say? As always, Diavolo...you win," Lucifer mumbled with a small frown.

After having tea and dinner, we headed back to our rooms but, Clayton stuck around a bit longer. So we're in the planetarium, where we can get some peace and quiet and he can get to know me better.

"You're talented in both Art and music?" Clayton asked.

"Yeah, I got an A on both subjects."

"Impressive. You got your talents from your mother," Clayton spoke with a sad smile.

"Was she that good?"

"Yeah, she loved singing and creating things. I remember hearing singing for the first time when she was pregnant with you. She had the voice of an angel."

I smiled when he told me about her and then I looked away sadly.

"I wished I could have met her...." I spoke sadly.

"Hey," Clayton spoke softly before he gently rubbed my back. "Your mother is no longer here but, I am still here. Keeping her memory alive."

I smiled at Clayton when he told me this and then I asked him, "Now that the danger is over...will you...take me back?"

"Are you kidding? of course I will. I'm going to do whatever it takes to bring you back," Clayton spoke with a smile.

"Thank you! but, there's something I want you to do for me," I told him.

"Oh? and what's that?" Clayton asked me.

"There's someone in the orphanage who is looking for a new home as well. He's been like a little brother to me and I don't want to leave him alone again."

"What's his name?" Clayton asked me.

"His name his Jamie."

"Jamie...between you and me, I always wanted to have a son as well as a daughter," Clayton told me and then I hugged him tightly.

"Thank you!"

I knew this is the happiest moment in my life, not only did I have my father back but, I'm also going to have a little brother once this exchange is over.
