A blonde-haired maid hurried out a room carrying something delicately as she moved across the hallway.
When she finally reached the end of the hall she halted and opened the door to the side.
Behind the door was a luxurious room full of clothes and toys for babies, she walked towards the crib in the room and gently placed the precious thing in her hand carefully on it.
She slowly ruffled the soft white blanket covering it, revealing the head of cute tanned baby boy with a patch of black hair.
His eyes were closed as he started moving his arms around playfully.
She just stood there for a moment as she observed the baby with an emotionless expression and turned around when she heard footsteps behind her. A black-haired maid entered the room with a couple of towels. She kept the towels on the shelves to the side and walked towards her fellow maid, joining her glancing at the baby as she looked tenderly at him.
"Isn't he adorable?" Squealed the raven-haired maid
"Yeah...he is, he'll definitely break a lot of hearts when he grows older," The blond-haired maid agreed amusedly whose response made the other maid giggle
"...but why are his eyes closed? He's clearly not sleeping.." Asked the raven-haired maid with confusion
Hearing her words the blonde frowned, before sighing, "The doctor was also confused, he told us that he might open them later or otherwise...."
The blonde paused before continuing, ".....it might be that he's blind"
The raven-haired maid gasped as her eyes widened in horror but then her expression turned sorrowful
"The Barbatos clan is going to end after all huh...." said the raven-haired maid sorrowfully
"Don't say that!" Shrieked the blonde, "If anyone hears that, we are going to get in trouble!"
"...but it's true..... lots of members of the clan died out in the Great War and The Devil Civil War, after that ...the remaining members 'mysteriously' starting disappearing one by one ....but everyone knows they were assassinated by the other devil clans because they were afraid of the magic and power of the Barbatos clan," Said the raven-head with a tone dripping with hate as she ended.
"Lord Barbatos was found poisoned in his office 8 months ago and today Mistress died due to childbirth but named young master before giving her last breath. Young master Diablo is the last remaining member of the Barbatos clan and he is too young to manage the affairs of the clan...is the Barbatos clan doomed after all?" said the raven-head as her tone got softer and softer with last statement coming out of her mouth as a whisper.
The blonde didn't say anything and stood there in silence, the raven-head followed in suit. They stood there for a moment before moving around the room to clean it, they fed the baby and left the room to attend to their other duties.
As soon as they left the room the childlike movements of the baby suddenly stopped
'So I really got here huh,' thought Diablo with a smile on his face before frowning as he recounted what the maids talked in front of him
'Hmm looks like the Barbatos clan is getting targeted, Does that mean they will go after me too? If they do came after me I wouldn't be even able to fight back or even defend myself,' thought Diablo who started getting worried but after a while relaxed, '...and also..I know I told ROB for me to be the only one in the family....BUT I DIDN'T MEAN LIKE THIS!'
He sighed
'Well there is nothing I can do about it anyway, If such a thing does occur in the future I will worry about it then but when I grow up and get enough power I will find the one behind this and make him pay.....its the least I can do....considering I indirectly killed them all,' thought Diablo with a weak smile
