Fia was wearing a beautiful gothic-like wedding dress. It looked like an elven design, the corset dress is made of pale silver/lavender silk dupioni, dusty lavender soft tulle, and decorated with silver baroque style details and amethyst stones. The corset has 34 flat and spiral steel bones. The back of the corset has metal eyelets and adjustable satin cord lacing. It had a flowing tulle skirt has a side invisible zipper closure and a dusty lavender tulle fabric cape.
She was really breathtaking.
Next to her Venelana, was wearing a beautiful crimson dress, made of burgundy taffeta and decorated with beautiful beaded embroidery appliques and trims, the bodice is lined with black soft cotton blend material. It had 12 spiral and flat metal bones. The skirt is bordered with a hand-pleated ruffle and decorated with black beaded trims and beaded applique at the back.
They came to me, as I stopped starting.
"Beautiful, both of you."
I said as both of them smiled at my compliment.
"Lord Lucifuge, Lord Bael."
I greeted.
"Now that everyone is here, we can finally start with the Wedding Ritual."
Said Lucifer, as Lord Lucifuge and Lord Zekram stood behind Grayfia and Venelana respectively
"Bring the dagger."
Said Lucifer, as his assistant
The assistant quickly brought up a ritual dagger and presented it to Original Lucifer.
"Zeoticus Gremory von Lucifer present two drops of the Heart Blood."
Said Lucifer as he inserted his Demonic Power into the Dagger and it shone with crimson light.
I took the dagger from his and cut my hand, and draw out two drops of the Heart Blood. I put them on the altar.
"Venelana Bael present one drop of the Heart Blood."
Said Lucifer, as Venelana did the same thing, and cut her hand and brought up one drop of the Heart Blood.
"Grayfia Lucifuge present one drop of the Heart Blood."
Said Lucifer, as Grayfia did the same thing, and cut her hand and brought up one drop of the Heart Blood.
Then after all of us have drawn up the Heart Blood, Lucifer started chanting the bonding spell and all four drops of the Heart Blood shined brightly. Soon the Grayfia's drop of blood connected with one of mine, and Venelana's drop of blood connected with my second drop of blood.
"Zeoticus Gremory von Lucifer drink the Heart Blood Drops of Venelana Bael and Grayfia Lucifuge."
Said he, as I did exactly as he instructed. I went to the altar, and took Heart Blood Drops of Venelana and Grayfia and drank it down.
Afterward, the ceremony continued, with Lucifer calling Vena and Fia.
"Venelana Bael and Grayfia Lucifuge drink the Heart Blood Drop of Zeoticus Gremory von Lucifer."
He said, as Vena and Fia did the same thing as me, and drank down the Heart Blood Drop of mine.
"Then let your blood and souls be connected with each other for eternity."
Said Lucifer as I now felt the connection between me, Vena, and Fia form. I could now tell where they were located and they could do the same, we could feel each other on a more intimate level.

"And now the Ritual has ended I have another announcement for everyone to heart at this joyous occasion."
Exclaimed Original Lucifer as the entire place quickly quieted down.
"After several outstanding achievements my grandson has achieved, be it creation of the entirely new Magic System for the Devils, spreading Arcanotechnology or reaching higher ends of the Satan-Class, I have decided to award the House Gremory with the hereditary title of Great King."
He said with such grandiose, that everyone just stared in shock, I have literary jumped two ranks, and now was one of the highest-ranking nobles in the Underworld, besides the Zekram Bael, who was also a Great King.
Everybody was silent and even I was not expecting this. I knew that this wasn't as simple as increasing my noble rank, but probably he wanted me and Rizevim to have a standoff for the seat of Lucifer.
It wasn't any secret that Lucifer was always disappointed that his son wasn't showing any kind of interest in ruling and dominating the world. So there are then several possibilities behind Lucifer's behavior.
Either he wants to force Rizevim to do something, by increasing my own social standing that would be threatening his own, as practically Great King was a higher rank than the Crown Prince that was Rizevim. The second possibility was that Lucifer already considered Rizevim a lost cause, so he decided to groom me into ruling material. The third possibility, eh was doing it just to create an enmity between me and Rizevim, so he could enjoy the aftermath.
Who knows what was going in his head.
Not that I cared about what my relationship with Rizevim would be. He will end up dead as soon as I have a chance, but that bastard is slippery, I doubt he will remain in the Underworld after the end of the Great War.
We have sparred several times, and even though he was older and more experienced than me, he was never able to win against me. I could feel his resentment of my person even here and now.
Even if we are both Super Devils nothing would change, and I would still have the upper hand, not to mention I am well-liked among the nobility as among commoners.
Common Devils loved me as my Arcanotech household inventions eased their life and saved them much money. Nobles loved me, as I was able to increase their powers by selling them Arcane Mechanical Automatons.
I was popular.
Something Rizevim was not.
And even though the Six Houses of Lucifer swore allegiance to Lucifer's Blood, only one could rule and guess who that one would be.
After Lucifer finished his speech he was right now giving, that I was not listening as it was boring, mainly about the superiority of devils and dominating the world, typical crap, he teleported out and went to do his business.
'If you knew that Dimensional Gap would be breached by our Orden, I wonder what would you do.'
I thought as I watched him teleport out.
