Welcoming the devil king's host

Sheon sat at one end of the white room, hugging his knees as he shook from fear.

'For thousands of years in hell, I have studied, sacrificed, traveled, and learned secrets to powers that Lucifer himself couldn't access. I have created my principles of magic and I defeated Azrael and his Generals...well technically, but that's by the way. In the end, here I am, a prisoner of this unborn child.

How pitiful, how much I have fallen. But this kid... possess the Celestial Eyes, how come? A mere human, with such weak energy and magic aptitude, possesses something so powerful, could it be the reason he's able to bind me here? Yes, it has to be.' Sheon thought.

'The last I remember, it was the eyes of

Lumia, one of the fallen angels. She had lost the 'Celestial Eyes' when she was cast into hell. No one knows of the full power it holds, but, I know that it could see and control souls to an extent. It was rumored to be destroyed and lost for eternity, but all along, it was here, in the human world, and with this... CHILD.

'Sigh... I'll just have to plan my escape, find who will kill the boy's will to live, I will break free, and possess a better and stronger human with no celestial eyes.' Sheon immediately devises a new plan.

'I shall make his world mine, I'll turn everything and everyone against him. I understand the depth of human greed, they would do anything to get their hands on absolute power. I shall present myself as a reward for the one who releases me and slowly takes over their body, then find a way to pay a visit to hell...muahahaha.' Sheon laughed in a villain-like manner, but then turns serious.

'Sigh... I hate those annoying celestial eyes, Ugh, they irk me so much. The only weakness devils have are heavenly beings, so unfortunate to be locked in a body with one.' He sighed.

"This kid... He's holding out well despite having me and the celestial eyes." He said as he looked at the black door that had appeared where he entered previously, it was a message to him from the celestial eyes, marking their spots and warning him not to cross his line

'I just hope I don't get bored while stuck in here... Hm?.' He huks in question.

"Heh." He suddenly smirked.

'I have found you...my dear host." He said as his smile started to grow even wider.

Inside the hospital ward, the nurse was carrying the peaceful baby who had cried a little and was now sucking his thumb. They found the blonde baby cute as they dressed both him and his mother. But, they were surprised to see the baby with purple eyes, the Darkling family is so famous that everyone knows about each member of the family so well, but none of them has purple eyes, which the child possessed.

"Can I see my baby?" The mother, a woman with beautiful golden eyes and long blonde hair requests.

"Sure ma'am." The nurse said handing over the baby to the woman and moving aside. She carried her son and looked at him with eyes filled with mixed emotions. She wasn't sure if she should be happy or sad, she knew that this baby was going to suffer a cruel fate, he had THE PURPLE EYES and To top it off, she checked his magical aptitude and saw that he had weak prowess for magic.

She pitied the poor peaceful baby for being born into a family that seeks only strength and power. As a member of the Darkling family, you deny yourself of your humanity as you're expected to sacrifice everything and be at the top.

"Will you survive? I hope you do son, You must." She said as she gently caresses the face of the baby, and the baby in reaction held her finger with his tiny hand and attempted sucking it. She didn't know when a chuckle escaped her lip but then a bitter smile covered it.

"It's going to be tough, but don't worry, mummy will always be there for you." She whispered to him.
