The Incubus System

Chapter 271: The Unfinished War II

The Incubus System Chapter 271. The Unfinished War II

Since Lord Damon kept refusing their requests, it made the other Demon Lords and Demonesses dissatisfied. Which finally ended with a big rebellion a few years ago. The reason? Because they thought by killing Lord Damon the border would be destroyed and they could be free to the human world as they pleased. Besides, many of them didn’t like Lord Damon since they were forced to obey The Demon King in the first place. So their dissatisfaction was the right spark to burn the fuel of their hatred for Lord Damon and end his family’s reign by killing his unborn son, Damian.

The Demons in the Dark Dimension themselves were divided into two groups. The first was the demons who wanted peace and Lord Damon’s followers. They usually lived in towns and cities under Lord Damon’s authority to gain his protection. This also included The Demon Lords and Demonesses who had agreed to submit to Lord Damon. The second was the demons who hated Lord Damon and wanted to overthrow him. These demons usually hid in rural villages, isolated places, forests and lived like the true demons. Killing, robbing the other’s property and eating each other. They were the real beasts and it was the demons from this group that usually escaped to the human world.

Actually, there was one more group, the traitor. One of them was the Incubus King. This group was hiding in the first group. They pretended to obey him but they secretly wanted to kill him. That’s why Lord Damon could not kill them unless they were caught red-handed, like those rebellious Demon Lords. The reason was, execution without solid evidence would only lead to more discontent and greater rebellion as well as distrust which would turn his followers against him. Several years ago, even with solid evidence, Lord Damon still had to face a year of war after he executed those treacherous Demon Lords with his own hands. So simply, despite his glorious status and strength, Lord Damon had been sitting in the hot seat all along. And next… I was the one who would sit in the hot seat!

As for Lord Damon’s current strength and condition, just as Tania said earlier. He was indeed weaker because he had covered and guarded the border energy with his power for a thousand years. Not to mention the rebellion and the war he just faced. But since his regeneration speed was incredible, there was nothing to worry about, but on condition… The crack above Lightglen City didn’t open prematurely like before, there was no rebellion or betrayal from other demon lords nor another energy disturbance on the large-scale like Myra did. Also, Lord Damon should take a rest, a vacation if necessary. Which meant— it was impossible if no one took his place and responsibility. In this case, it was me who had to do it. The problem was, my knowledge about the dark dimension was nearly zero. And no one could lead a place where he had never been. Besides I was still freaking weak compared to those demon lords.

My servants also gave me a glimpse of the power comparison in the Dark Dimension. According to their explanation, if we used aristocracy as a comparison, their strength was equivalent to a Viscount and Myra’s lover’s power was equivalent to a Baron. So I still had a long way to go.

For the dark dimension itself, that place was as vast as the human world. Most of it already had the same civilization as humans, especially the cities under Lord Damon and his allies’ authority. Tall buildings, houses, paved roads and street lamps, the dark dimension also had them. What distinguished them was they had their own rules and laws. Meanwhile, the other areas were the places that had not been touched by civilization or had lower civilizations. It was the wild area, where the demons who didn’t submit to Lord Damon were and I guessed Foxy was from one of these areas.

Also, instead of a sun, a red moon took its place. That’s why, before, most demons didn’t escape to the human world in the daytime even though cracks often occurred during that time. Because the light was something foreign to the demons and they were afraid that they would set their feet on the Light Dimension, where the Angels were.

But over time, that fear broke. The reason was some demons who managed to sneak into the human world and return to the dark dimension told the others that the crack did not connect to the Light Dimension but the human world. A place where they could expand their territory and eat humans to their heart’s content. Followed by Myra’s enslavement plan which eventually made the border energy thinner, the demons finally did not hesitate to run away to the human world every time a crack opened, either in the day or night.

The cracks themselves actually open throughout the human world and the Dark Dimension. But all that was just a small crack that would close by itself. Only the border energy around the two main cities was the thinnest of all, Lightglen City and Nighthallow City. The reason that Ironshade Town got involved was its location was between the two big cities. That’s why the Demon Generals and Elite Soldiers concentrated their strength here.

Not only that, since they were my servants, I also asked them about their origin. Yuffy was Tania and Sarael’s daughter. Luna was Kitty and Andrew’s daughter. As for Ivy and Maria, they were Lilieth and Lord Damon’s right-hand men’s children. Ivy’s mother was a Succubus who worked as the royal scientist under Lilieth named Irien. While Maria’s father was a royal demon who worked as the Demon Kingdom’s Chancellor under Lord Damon. In other words, Lord Damon and Lilieth chose the children of their confidants to serve me.

“What else do you want to know, Your Highness?” Yuffy asked with a smile. My other servants also gave me the same expression since they took my questions as my enthusiasm to prepare myself as the future demon king.

“I think that’s enough for today. I’ll ask you guys again later.” Although there were still many things I wanted to ask, especially regarding the consequences if I killed the Incubus King or the other Demon Lords, I decided to swallow all the information gradually. After all, no matter how much information I got, the most important thing for me right now was that I had to strengthen myself and raise my level. Without enough strength, I wouldn’t be able to do anything, especially against those demon lords. And unfortunately, even though the humans thought I was a great demon with terrifying powers, that was only by human standards, not demon standards. The other bad news, I couldn’t go to the dark dimension without Lord Damon and Lilieth’s permission since they were still hiding about my existence. On the other hand, I needed strong opponents to raise my level faster, which meant I couldn’t make fast progress if I stayed in the human world.

But one thing for sure, from their explanation, I could catch the dark dimension’s rule was not as simple as the strongest would take all. Lord Damon still had to balance the power between the demon lords to keep the Dark Dimension in peace.

“Since the conversation is over—” Ivy clung to me intimately and brought her lips closer to my ear.

“Shall we have some fun again, Your Highness?” she whispered in a seductive voice.

I glanced at the clock.

09.15 PM

It was a little late, but one short round didn’t sound bad to me. As that thought crossed my head, an announcement appeared in front of me.

[You are connected with Emma.]

‘Ethan? Haaa… Finally, I can contact you,’ said Emma.

‘What is it?’ I guessed something was going on since from her words I was sure she had tried to contact me multiple times.

‘That’s skill—it’s yours, right? The one who killed the demons in Nighthallow City?’ said Emma straight to the point.

‘Yeah, that’s mine.’ I was pretty sure what she meant was my Shadow Ritual.

‘The association is in a panic because of that. Now they ordered me and Ruby to find the great demon.’ It was clear what she meant was the Incubus, Damian Lucio, not Ethan Strongheart.

‘You should be careful with Ruby,’ I reminded her.

‘Don’t worry. Mrs Clea had already given her warning. I’m sure she didn’t dare to break it.’

I felt more relieved after hearing that.

‘One more thing. You’re at your house, right? It’s only my guess, but I think Mrs Clea wants to check on you since she took the car after picking up some files about your father earlier.’

‘I’m still at Sea Devil Club with my servants now. I will go home soon. Thank you for your information, Emma,’ I said.

‘Okay. See you tomorrow, Ethan. Goodnight.’

‘Nite.’

[You have disconnected with Emma.]

I stood up from my seat and swept my gaze over my servants.

“There’s an emergency. I have to go home now,” I said.

“Awww….!” Their voices sounded like an orchestra of disappointment.

But before I could say more words, Celia connected to me.

[You are connected with Celia.]

‘Brother, Mrs Clea is already in front of our house,’ she said in a panic.

Haa… Give me a break.
