A/n: Vote on the devil arms yes I am saying it again because they will be needed next chapter.

"So your Nero's biological father?"

"Um yes ma'am," Y/n was nervous. He's stared down countless demons that could have easily laid waste to the human population, beat them too. But this human woman staring him down made him feel as intimidating as when Eva or even his own mother scolded him. The table they sat at even though the smell alone would make anyone hungry seeing the food was different.  But even then it felt more like an interrogation from the two parents of the girl who found them, Kyria her name was.

"Oh that's wonderful. Not long after she had Nero she said she had to do something." She spoke again in a tone that immediately seemed to cut all the tension in the room. Nero and Kyria started talking as even Credo was eating although he still kept an eye on Y/n. "You know your awfully younger to be parents but I can't judge much sense we were younger when we had Credo. You must tell me how she's doing." 

"She's in hell."

Immediately the temperature dropped in the room as the words left his mouth. Nero's eyes widened in shock as Kyria's mother dropped a plate, and even Credo seemed shocked. Not wanting to pry any further Kyria's mother simply nodded sadly and her husband did the same.

"Well we should remember her as she was."

Nero got up from the table and ran off as his chair fell as he slammed the door shut.

"Nero!" Calls out Kyria as she goes to follow but is stopped by Y/n.

"I'll talk to him," he said running a hand through his hair and let's out a sigh. "Time to be a parent." He says to himself as he approaches the door to leave. When he was outside he thought about where Vermila would go. And looking around he sees exactly the spot.

-scene shift brought to you by younger Credo, even then he looks like a 30 year old-

Nero sat at the edge of a tall building that overlooked the city. He held his knees to his chest. Light tears from his eyes, 'she can't be gone' Nero thought. Nero only had a few memories of his mother but he cherished them, his first memorie was her eyes blue like his with white hair to match. Her eyes held warmth and pride when ever she saw him. Then her voice it was cold and stern but held warmth and love mixed with care. Her scent that always calmed his waling as he was a baby. And lastly her smile it was warm. Warm tears fell from his eyes running as he thought he'd never see it again.

"You should have brought your coat at least."

Nero was surprised as he felt a warm article of clothing drop on him, it wasn't until he felt the article of clothing that he realized he was cold.

"I don't need your help," Nero said even though he was already bundling up in Y/n's coat. Nero then looks up at Y/n as he sat down next to him noticing he was now only in a sleeveless gray shirt and a simple gold chain around his neck. "How'd you even find me?"

"Well call it a hunch but your mother also had a thing about high places that looked down on her surroundings." Nero looked at the man claiming to be his father before scooching slightly closer. Looking over at the man's hands he sees a golden amulet with a red gem on a gold chain.

"So uh.."

"I was hers, the uh amulet." He hands the item to Nero. "She would have wanted you to have it, besides it's a family heirloom it doesn't belong to me anyway."

Nero nervously reached out and grabbed the amulet, holding it gingerly. As Nero held the amulet he noticed a slight hum of energy around it although it was faint and felt incomplete.
