⸢3rd Person POV⸥
The notes of Antonio Vivaldi's Four Seasons - Autumn resounded in the large hall were crowds of man and woman in royal dresses and tuxedo are enjoying the favorable night to all of them.
All were cheering and giving pleasantries to each other as it was the celebration of Princess Lilith Infernus' 15th birthday, Serpent smiled while looking at his daughter's suitors coming here and there to take his only daughter's hand.
Lilith on the other hand, were exasperated and annoyed at most of the suitors giving her sweet words instead their truthful comments to her.
Even a demon would be disgusted at this kind of manners too, even called as evil, it doesn't mean they lack the normal manners and attitude to converse and socialize to others.
Out of their sight, the Progenitor look incredulously at everyone inside the room, the memories of his fall and hatred to the enemy of his became alive again.
~Flashback~
"Wh... y?", he asked baffled in shock in front of a man covered in white. Progenitor slumped down in his feet, his clothes covered of his blood and body with bleeding wounds. He spat out a huge amount of blood from his quivering lips, his body trembling in pain. His voice croaked out a single disheartened question he wanted to ask, to know the reason.
To know everything.
"Wh... y did... you do... this... fat... her?", he said looking in disbelief and confusion to the man he said to as his father. The man just sighed twirling the sword he has in his left hand, before starting to laugh madly. Progenitor looked at his father, not sure what are happening to him. His father stopped laughing before moving his cold and mad gaze to him, his grin unwavered.
"Alas, my son. I am really disappointed to you, asking me why do I do this? asking my decision to do this to you? asking me and my judgement?"
His father asked him back with ridiculousness in his tone, Progenitor just look at his father with hazy vision. His father growled at him with great hostility and venom in his words.
"You have no right to ask, my son. Me, your father, are doing what was right. And. you. have. no. right. to oppose me and question my decisions!"
"I have seen your act's tarnished by your lowly kind, you have done the greatest sin and the FIRST sin of the mankind. Why did I even created you? you're just nothing but a sinful and wretched existence", his father said in disappointment yet his grin growing wider each second.
"You two have eaten the forbidden fruit and didn't follow what I have said to you, and thus will be exiled in this place. Such a plain but meaningful words aren't it?", his father mocked him as he pulled out one of the fruits making Progenitor's eye wide.
"Don't worry, she's still safe but! That's just for now", his father mentioned his sister.
This made Progenitor confused, why did his father telling him this?
He didn't do anything wrong.
He didn't questioned his own father's decisions.
But why do his father accusing him with this crimes?
His father shoved the fruit to his bloodied mouth making him choke, the pain make his body jolt and he let a muffled groan.
And then, searing pain attacked his head making his body flail weakly in pain due to his wounds. Flashes of knowledge about what's right and wrong, and the knowledge itself entered his mind like a drill. Despite of wanting to hold his head to stop the pain, he can't thus making him subconscious. After some minutes he regained his consciousness, looking at his father's silhouette in rage as he finally realized it. His father spoke at him.
"Such a waste of resources, I didn't know how bad you are when I created you. Tsk, Tsk, Tsk"
Progenitor wanted to scream in rage to his own father, whom framed, betrayed and discarded him as nothing but a useless object. His father grinned more as his breathing slowed down as his body suffered fatal wounds yet even in his last breath, he spoke his unmistakable vow of revenge.
"I'll make sure I'll come back again to kill you, Father"
"I'll welcome you to that, useless trash", his father said this before he swung his sword down to Progenitor's neck decapitating him for good.
*****
"I'll kill that fucking bastard", he gritted his teeth mumbling curses to his father releasing his killing intent unintentionally causing everyine weaker than him froze in the tension.
A hand patted his back making him to wake in his savage daydream of revenge.
"Dude, chill out. We're in a venue, calm your tits down", this voice slightly irritated him. He turned his gaze in his side to see a face of a man in his twenties wearing black tuxedo and wearing a tensed look, his orange hair matches his dim brown eyes and the freckles in his cheeks, a pair of large horns like Bull's protruding in his forehead and large tusks below his square shaped jaw which almost made him look like a horned boar.
Despite of this kind of appearance his voice were sounding like 6 yrs. old boy, which even made Progenitor shocked. The man in turn smiled at him, making way for his hand and offer a handshake.
Progenitor's face scrunched inwardly fighy the urge to slap the man's hand and kick it's face.
"Rodrick Bael, but you can call me Beelzebub", the man said happily sticking his hands next to Progenitor's. Hesitating for a few seconds, Progenitor finally accepted the handshake before declaring his name.
"I'm... Adam Genesis, ni-"
"Wait, YOU are ADAM? what in the fucking heaven bitches bro, are you joking?", despite of the words, Rodrick's face were in shock hearing the name from Progenitor's. The others froze too hearing the name, before the sound of boiling can be heard.
Lilith became confused looking at Adam's direction, what with that man's name?
Rodrick didn't know whether to laugh or cry, it's because one of their Nemesis' son are here! and also the first child of all of them!
Everyone wanted to rip Adam alive (Except the three named Demons), but cannot since they are in front of the Infernal King and the Founder of this continent and World.
A man shouted calling the guards outside, which barged in with their blazing armors floating in the ground.
The Infernals*.
Adam just sighed inwardly, did even that bastard snake tell everyone here about their deal?
"Guards! Take this man in the Prison! He's a child of that fucking old geezer!", roared by a man and the others shouted their complaints too.
"That's right!"
"Yes! take him there!"
"Kill him now! It's better than keeping him alive!"
"Are you Nuts? it's more profitable imprisoning hom than killing him, Muscle Brain!"
"Oh?! are you challenging me Dickhead?"
"Well, yes!"
The demons started to confront whether keeping Adam alive or killing him now. The fight stopped when a strong surge of deathly killing intent enveloped the room, the demons trembled at their majesty's anger. Along with the killing intent was a command from the king, the Infernals froze and their flames subdued by the command. Lilith just look at the surroundings bewildered, this is the first time she saw her father releasing killing intent.
Serpent spoke in cooly manner, which if added to his raspy voice where hair raising one.
"Ay? Am I not allowed to give my opinion about this matter? You seemed to be in heat fighting about his being, aren't you?", Serpent said making everyone kneel for respect and now were begging for his forgiveness.
"Please forgive our lack of manners my king!"
"Please forgive us, your majesty!"
Serpent dissipated his own killing intent making the demons sigh in relief.
Who wouldn't be scared in front of the strongest being in this place?
Serpent looked at Adam's place and smiled, making Adam clench his teeth in anger.
"Well as you see, this man, Adam were actually invited by me myself to my daughter's birthday party. Now, any objections?", after his words the demons quickly answered.
"No, your majesty"
Amused, Serpent grin at this. Before slapping his forehead making a loud cracking sound.
"Now, why don't I introduce you this young man. I'm really getting old, haha", he laughed at his own joke but no one respond. It's as if they're courting death if they do. Serpent stand up from his seat and go near Adam, Rodrick were stunned at what's happening.
He didn't know what in the world were happening!
The first child of their nemesis god are invited by the one and only king of theirs.
"This young man, Adam Genesis, are proven to have the symbol akin to mine and other's Sins. I know, I know that we have been in bad terms in heaven and humanity but! he wasn't from the two side as he, was exiled, betrayed, and played by his own creator. I, as his fellow Sin were deeply relieved that I have met another! If not new, a Sin that can help us to bring down our nemesis' powerhouses", his speech were unbelievable to everyone inside, but there are some believing Serpent's words wholeheartedly and some aren't. He continued.
"Meet the Sin of Rebellion, Adam Genesis. I and him already made a deal, I'll let him help us and rise to the top and he'll get his deemed revenge. Let him show his power, not his worth to help us bringing down his creators glory", he roared which made everyone cheer in joy. He then lifter up Adam's sleeve making his Sin mark seeable, it was a head of a bull with red eyes glowing in hatred and anger releasing dread atmosphere and demons feel it's emotion. At this they believe that Adam was really one of them.
One requirement to identify if a Mark was real were the connection of it to all demons in vicinity of the one who has it, since demons are said to as the sinners in hell thus they would feel the connection it has to them.
Adam just sighed at this, too much exposure...
*****
"Are you sure you're holding just one symbol? you're like the King before! If not lower. What's with that killing intent?", Rodrick asked Adam while he escorts him in Palace of Ira*.
Adam just ignore it and continued walking, not minding if Rodrick weren't really guiding him or not.

Serpent were sipping his tea when he suddenly froze, beads of sweat started to appear in his forehead as he suddenly received visions about the future.
He saw a man with black hair standing in the familiar white carpeted roofless hall, his hand holding a scythe which are the same as his clothes, bloodied with golden blood from angels. He saw his nemesis too, smiling while holding the sword which decapitated Adam and slash his body to half.
The two fight and he saw that the man were having the same aura as if he's...
Serpent's jaw dropped, this man were also a Sin!
He didn't recognize it's signature but he was sure that the man was a Sin like him and Adam. And also, he didn't see anyone accompanying this man, meaning it only barged in the Heaven and started the slaughter.
He, which are deemed as the most strongest being in Aashura felt ashamed. Even he himself can't enter alone in Heaven, and pass the 12 Archangel's Guard* towards his nemesis. His vision changed and what he saw next was the man naked, his skin burned and his nemesis grinning.
His felt the urge of shouting to the man to stand up and fight again, that he needs to kill the bastard.
Yet his gaze spotted the unfamiliar tattoo in the man's left chest. It was a monkey's face and vertebrae coiled circling the face of the monkey, the face didn't show any hostility, but a terrible feeling come to him.
All is Malice.
His visions stop at there and he plopped down in the chair staggered in the revelation, he was put in trance and shocked about the visions.
"Who are you?", serpent voiced out deepening his trance and curiosity about the boy.
*****
"I am ordering you, General Zachary for this mission. Terrorize the mankind of the South, we need to do this to improve our plans success", Serpent called out an Infernal General, which are named Zachary in his room.
The General become confused and conflicted at his king's orders, Serpent noticed this and chuckled.
"Do not fret, General. You just need to sprinkle fear to them, if you even want, you can kill everyone in towns you'll invade. I am giving you this secret mission, and I can only take an acceptance for this one"
"Y... yes... your majesty", Zachary croaked out his voice in presence of his king. Serpent send him away and after the General left, a smirk full of madness came to him.
"Elliot, what a surprise it is. His summoner will be his enemy later, such of destiny intertwined"
He sighed before looking outside of his window, looking at the almost circled moon shining elegantly in the noon of night.
"Even if I need to give you my life, I'll do it. Just kill that motherfucker later", he laughed sadistically before continuing his secret plan airing.
"The time is ticking, so are your awakening"
