Devil Slave (Satan system)

Chapter 1168: Who Is Enel!?

The maid, outside the door had heard the conversation between the father and the son. And had immediately rushed into the castle to inform his great grandmother, Queen of this great Elven city.

Soon, the information had spread like wild fire, even reaching Enel’s siblings that were back at the training room.

On hearing that their littlest brother was challenging the crow, they all laughed at this, but there all rushed out as they would take any opportunity that was presented to them to enjoy embarrassing their brother.

After all, he was not like them. He had began to speak at the age of six months, and before then, he had already been a weird child. He never cried, not even when he pooped his pants and was uncomfortable. He always carried a gaze like that of a seasoned warrior. It creeped every body out.

Even when they tried to cut him with a blade as a baby, he did not cry. There were also other mysterious aspects about him. Because of their father’s unique heritage as he was not an elf, they all had a connection with negative energy, and even a wisp of holy power if they concentrated hard on it.

But Enel was different. It seemed like it came naturally to him. Even before the baby could walk, he could fly with the control of his negative energy and holy power, a feat that shocked everybody.

And even when he began to walk, falling to the ground would not make him shed tears.

He also had a strange sense of curiosity. One foreign for his age. After all, other babies would rather play around and mess the place as they explored the world. But the moment he could move as he wanted, the one place he went to was the library.

Even more mysterious, he had never been thought how to read nor write. After all, this was a feat that should happen with time, but even as a baby, he would stare at the books like a scholar hungry for knowledge it could provide.

But the strange things about this boy were more than this. After all, there was the fact that his mother suddenly up and abandoned him and his father only a day after giving birth to him.

Rumors say that she was a werewolf of the mysterious and imprisoned eighth earth. Rescued by Luca, and pulled by fate. Her kind only imprinted once in a life time.

Even though she had been taken as a concubine by her Luca, she had never imprinted... not until she gave birth and stared at her own son in the eyes.

In shame of this, she had run away from the city.

Then again, it was only a rumor.

With the many weird things surrounding this child known as Enel, it was no wonder that even his siblings did not like him very much. In fact, they despised him. And searched for any and every opportunity to humiliate him.

Be it pranks, traps or even making his standing with their father. But Enel was really an abnormality. No matter what they did to him and no matter how they humiliated him.

He never seemed look their way. It was as if his sight was always set far ahead, and above. As if the things that happene dall around was not his business.

There was also never a time that he revenged.

And they had done a lot to him. Including, poisoning his food so he could have regular appointments with the toilet. They laced his wardrobe with cheese so that the rats could make work of his cloths.

Of course, there was only so far they could go. He might be their step brother, but he was also a prince of this country.

The only other thing that ever grabbed his attention apart from the library was a room.

It is said that Luca’s mother, Lady Vinegar was in a state of permanent stasis within this room. After an old wound inflicted by using laws that she had no power to control, she had to be kept in a state of sleep, else she lost her life.

Rumors say that young Enel would be found in front of this door whispering words under his breath for hours. and which he would turn and leave, only returning back to the library.

Even the guards thought he was weird.

However, there was one person that dotted on this boy a lot. It was not Luca’s the boy’s father that did not even like to tolerate his presence.

It was the boy’s great grand mother and queen of this city of High Elves hidden deep within the underworld.

After all, this boy had been tested like his siblings and father before him by her staff and while Luca had been signified with the rainbow, which was the highest form of talent known by the high elves, this boy, Enel, had produced several rainbows.

It was not two or three. The rainbows had been so much that they covered the sky of the city in different colors for seven straight days.

As such she knew this child was far more special.

She had Luca marry high elves had have children with them so that his position as her grandson and prince be sealed and unquestioned.

This had been a good idea, and had worked. But there were rumors that she wanted the three year old Enel to be crowned as her heir even though he had no elven blood in his veins.

It is rumored that she is waiting for him to come of age.

Of course, again, it is all rumors.

Enel was only three years old. but he had gotten really good genes from his father, and although not the total package that allowed half borns to grow very fast, his stature was still good for his little size. In fact, it was too good.

Enel did not have total white hair like his father had. Rather, he had a head filled with jet black hair and a few long white starnds dangling at the side, down to his face.

As he walked down the hall, those that had heard the news followed behind at a safe distance, maids, Elven elders of the court and many more.

After all, any news about this child was never boring. No one wanted to miss the next one. Besides, it was always exagerated in their own opinion.

Enel had his hands behind his back, walking with the Demeanor of a king.
