About a month passed and all was calm in the Safi household.
"Open up Eleos" Sera exclaimed
'Ew, I don't want that stuff. I'm a demon lord do I really have to eat this grovel' said demon lord thought as he turned his head away from the spoon of vegetables
- Correction -
- The Host no longer holds the [Title-Demon Lord-] -
'Snarky system, I'll show you'
"Mareem for some reason he just refuses to eat the vegetables. Cam you try feeding him?"
"Of course darling"
He took the spoon from her and said, "Here comes the dragon!" As he made a flying motion with the spoon.
"Dragon? Where? I thought I killed them all." But all that came out of his mouth was incomprehensible babbling.
However to Mareem this was an opportunity, a chance to sneak the food into the newborn's mouth.
And so he quickly did. Keyword quickly. He forced the food in Eleos' mouth so quickly that Eleos began to choke.
'*Cough* So this is how I *Choke* Die. Felled by mere *Cough* grovel. Oh how far *Choke* this mighty demon lord has *Cough* fallen'
- Correction -
'Shut it, I didn't ask!'
*Panic*
'Oh no what do I do I shoved the spoon in too far. I need to do something'
His wife calmly walked behind their son and wrapped her arms around him. Making a fist with one hand and pushing it with another she squeezed towards the boys solar plexus. This caused the food to come flying out of the infants mouth.
"Mareem, what did I tell you three days ago"
"Umm, what was it. I don't remember sorry hon"
"I TOLD YOU NOT TO PLAY DRAGON WITH ELEOS' FOOD! DO YOU NOT REMEMBER WHAT HAPPENED!"
"Oh that's right you had to do the same thing"
*Snap* *Crackle* *Pop*
"Ow" Mareem whimpered as he slowly limped into the next room to escape from his wife.
'Scary' thought Eleos
"Now Eleos let's eat our vegetables" Sera half sang
'Yes maam' he thought now deciding to never offend or cross this woman ever.
'I truly have the most unique parents ever'
Some time later…
"Good night my sweet bundle of goodness" sang Sera
From the opposite side of the room, "Good night son, sleep well"
'Still scared of her huh' thought Eleos, thankful his mother's anger was not directed towards him.
"What ever are you doing over there dear? Kiss our son good night"
"Ahhh" he startled, "I can kiss him from over here"
"What are you saying dear? Do you think I'm still angry at you for earlier?"
"Heavens no my love" he said unconvincingly, "I just wanted to give Eleos some space."
"I read somewhere that infants need a lot of space so they can express themselves better." he lied though his teeth.
"I didn't know you could read dear" she muttered just loud enough for him to hear. "Anyway let us leave our son to rest."
The young couple then made their way out of the room.
As they did Mareem said, "*Nervous Laughter* you know dear I could hear what you whispered"
"I know, you were supposed to"
With that their voices faded and all I could hear was the muffled continuation of their argument.
'What strange parents I have'
'Anyway. System, can I check my status and skills?'
- Response -
- The Host does have permission to check his status. In the future if the Host thinks of the word [Status] and wills for his [Status] to appear then the Host can view his status -

'Hm, there's a lot here'
A few things caught my attention though. For example after it stated my race there was something that said bloodline unknown. I still know next to nothing about how things work in this world so that could be very important or could hold no importance whatsoever.
Nevertheless, now is not the time to worry about it. I also noticed there was something stating my level as one. This makes sense since I'm a mere infant. I have a long road to travel if I want to progress in this world. I do however wonder what level my parents are.
Regardless, let's take a look at my actual battle stats.
'HUH… my stats are trash'
The level of my strength, speed, and stamina is so abysmal that it's not even a full number. Not even one. Not only that my magic power and essence are zero.
Magic power is basically the strength stat for magic while essence is the respective stamina portion. It's pretty easy to understand.
But before my reincarnation into this world I was know though-out the lands as a master sorcerer. I was one of the few individuals with the ability to silent cast.
Suffice it to say I need to rectify this predicament.
That aside, I don't really know what this last stat even is. Ki what is that.
- Answer -
- [Ki] a form of energy all life forms hold. Some are even capable of manipulating it and performing great feats some view as inhuman. It can be cultivated inside the body in a similar way magic essence can. If harnessed correctly [Ki] can be used as a powerful weapon -
'Hm, sounds interesting. And it seems I may be a bit lucky. I seem to be one of those rare individuals with the ability to manipulate Ki. I'll have to figure out the trick to it.'
'It seems though with my abyssal stats and few skills I have a long way to go in this world. Though surely I wouldn't be bored in this world with the amount of work I'll have to do.'
And with that thought I drifted off to sleep.
