Ultimate Herrsher in DxD

Chapter 24: {1}Side story-Meliodas PoV



I don't remember exactly, but before we were truly born it felt as if we were trapped inside our own mortal shells

All I could do those days was blankly watch father as he researched on how to give us true life.

Eventually father gave up as he couldn't find a way to give us freedom of tought and emotions.

If I had them before at that moment I bet I would have felt disappointment, sadness.

But father had a sudden but great idea.

It was mother, Valerie Tepes.

He sought out to combine their sacred gears. One to create the vessel and one for the soul.

Eventually through trials and errors full of countless night and days without sleep they succeeded.

That was the day the first of the 10 commandments and the first of the 4 Seraphim were born.

I on the other hand was a prototype sitting on the edge of the lab, I was aware of myself but I still didn't have the finishing touches that my brother and sister had.

But even if I was a prototype that was lifelessly siting on a corner, the day both Sephiroth and Albedo were born changed my life.

The smile of happiness that dawned on both Mom and Dad's face stored something inside of me.

I was longing for something like that, true emotion.

Eventually father took on me once again now that he and mother knew how to perfectly create life. That day was the day I was truly born.

I could see father look at me with the same eyes he had with Sephiroth and Albedo, full of happiness and joy.

And despite me still being an empty vessel waiting to be filled, I smiled back, just how I remembered dad smiled at me and my siblings.

He looked at me in surprise at first but soon turned into a gentle chuckle.

I still remember the words he said "Hoh, you're already showing such emotion?. Good job, worthy of being my creation" To others it might sound like something a super villain would say to their abomination of a creation...well it was but to me they were words of praise. Ones that I never forgot as they were the first words father said to me.

From that day on I was the second of the 10 commandments, only second to my older sister Albedo.

Of course it wasn't all smooth sailing at first, we were all still at the tough processing of a fetus so father and mother tought us everything they could.

He tought us how to speak, he taught us how to move, he right us how to play, but bove all he tough is how to truly live.

And that's something I will always be grateful for.

From that day on I kept learning as much as I could so that I would be worthy the position father gave me. And I continue to with the smile dad had on my face.

Eventually father continued to create more of my siblings, Marika, Audrey, Clive.

We all got along well and they all looked up to me as I was pretty easy to get along with and I was their older brother.

But one day father created someone that would change my life.

Elizabeth

She was the younger and weakest of the 4 Seraphim, she was a shy girl but despite that she had the biggest heart of the 4.

I don't know why or when but each time I saw her my heart rate got faster, and I could feel my face heat up.

I tought that I might be sick or something but that was impossible.

That's when I remembered a topic father has talked about when he reached us about emotions.

Love.

But what was love?

I knew that I had love for father but it didn't feel the same as the type that I had for Elizabeth.

Dad gave a warm feeling in my heart that made me feel safe.

Yet Elizabeth gave me this buttery feeling, a feeling that made wlme want to plush her into my arms.

My head was in turmoil that day so I sought out the only man that could give me the answer I needed.

Father.

I told him that I found out my feeling for her but I just couldn't figure out what type of love it was, what was the difference between the love I had for him and the love I had for Elizabeth.

When I told father he looked at me amused "So you two are meant to be togheter no matter what huh?. Fine son, let me tell you something. Love is a rather broad spectrum."

"For example, 'I love this cookie I'm eating' do I love it the same way I love Himeko?, Ms.Azza?, you mother?. No, absolutely not, it's because there are different types of love for different people and things. Everyone has their own ways to show love and view it. Each time I see Himeko I feel like snuggling up to her and staying with her in that position for ever l, might b similar to how you are feeling"

"With your grandmother Azza, I feel greatfull and I care about her as she's the person who has raised me to be the man I'm today. It's not the same as Himeko but I still care and love deeply about both. She's like a mother to me"

"And with your mother, it's a rather complicated matter but I'll figure it out later" was what he told me. I processed his word a bit until it hit me.

I love Elizabeth just how dad loves Himeko, that warm fuzzy feeling in my chest, the need to hug her. It was just how dad said he felt about Himeko.

After the talk with father I finally managed to figure outy feeling for Elizabeth and the rest was history.

"Sir Meliodas, are you okay?"

Elizabeth's sweet voice Snaped me out of my mind.

We were currently in the living room of the orphanage watching TV on the couch with the other kids. Elizabeth was sitting on the couch while I sat on her lap with her arms wrapped around me. At times like these I'm grateful that father made me child sized.

"Yeah I'm fine, just thinking about the past"

"The past?, it really has been a long time" she said with a nostalgic tone.

But I had to agree with her, despite it only being a few years we have all come a long way.

Now that I think about it it's quite ironic that my commandment was love to begin with.

"But let's not focus on the past but on the future, we have a long road ahead after all" Said Elizabeth as she hugged me tighter like a plushie.

I don't mind as I could feel hear breas- cough I mean, her 'modest' size pushing against my head.

I also had 'the talk' with father once I got a feel of boobs and to say he was amused was an understatement.

But he made her this way so all hail father!
