Diablo in Highschool DxD

Chapter 4: Grayfia Lucifuge

Grayfia POV(Flashback):

Maids...they were always fascinating for me. Ever since I saw my first maid when I was little, I was captivated. Everything about them was entrancing to me...to their clothes, to their behaviour and to their mannerisms...It was absolutely perfect.

I tried to imitate them but got reprimanded by my parents as it was apparently 'unladylike', they believed it was beneath the position of the heiress of the noble Lucifuge clan to act as a lowly maid.

I, being the child I was, argued back but finally relented...though I did not give up. Whenever I had the chance I used to sneak into the library and read books on maids secretly.

This continued on throughout the years, behind my parents backs, even when I finally became an adult. Yet throughout these years my interest in them didn't diminish at all, instead it intensified.

I also got stricter with the maids of the household and often scolded them if their uniform was untidy or if they were wasting their time and procrasinating or corrected them if their behaviour was improper as a maid.

Part of the reason behind my behaviour was because that they were indeed wrong and needed to be disciplined... but the real reason was always one thing, it was envy.

They were all fake maids, they did not know how to serve properly, they moved without elegance and didn't even have any proper etiquette, they were not passionate about it. A maid is supposed to be perfect, without any flaws, unlike them who did not have a shred of respect for the job itself.. b-but I-I could do a better job!

...if only I had a chance...

...During these years I also had lots of suitors and even my parents tried to pair me up with some of them, but I refused as I had no interest in romance at that moment

Most of them didn't even have any genuine feelings for me and were just after me because of my status or were simply lusting after me

My parents were worried because of my lack of interest in men and even guessed that I might swing the other way. They were suspicious with the way I treated the maids and even thought that I had a maid fetish.

Which I didn't by the way...maybe If I was the maid..

*coughs*

Anyway I was also not bi-sexual since I knew I was attracted to men and did not feel the same towards women, but just because I feel physical attraction doesn't mean that I have feelings for any of them.

Hearing this, my brand new female suitors were quite disheartened...not that I cared about it anyway.

As years went by I realised how arrogant devils truly were, they didn't fear anything and assumed everything belonged to them.

Due to this another major conflict occurred, a war...The Devil Civil War.

I had no choice to choose any side as the Lucifuge Clan was an Extra Demon House that had sworn direct allegiance to the Original Lucifer and his bloodline.

We were automatically entitled to fight with the Lucifers, who were with the Satan faction

Having no choice I followed my commands and fought, day after day, months after months, years after years until one day I heard...My father, Lord Lucifuge had fallen.

I immediately retreated from my post and went to the position of the Beezelbulb's forces where my father was posted.

When I arrived there, it was already too late.

Father was already at his last breath. He looked at me in his last moments and smiled weakly as he slowly closed his eyes.

I froze...I didn't know what to do. My legs felt weak as I dropped to my knees.
