Chapter 506: The Hounds’ Territory VI
The Incubus System Chapter 503. The Hounds’ Territory VI
“Really?” Foxy said in disbelief once more. Her face looked brighter. She turned to the unfinished building and was about to run there. I bet she thought they were there. But I caught her wrist.
She stopped and turned to me.
“They aren’t there,” I said.
“Then where?” She asked.
Without a word, I released my hand and closed my eyes, concentrating my attention on my Evil Eye that had hovered above us. The sight of the whole place entered my view. Quickly, I searched where they were since based on the Gruesome Hound, the leader assigned them to watch over us. So after this massacre, I could only hope they were still hiding around here. If they escaped into the forest, we would have a hard time looking for them.
Unfortunately, I didn’t find them so I moved my One Eyed Demon to fly low to look for more details.
“How is it?” My ears could pick up on Foxy’s impatient voice.
“I’m still looking for them,” I said without opening my eyes.
10 minutes had passed. I could hear Foxy’s sobbing and Maria’s faint voice trying to comfort her. The others had already scattered to help me.
I had checked almost everywhere but I couldn’t find any traces or anything. What was left was the forest and looking for frightened low-level demons in a huge forest like this was not good news.
‘Maybe we should rest and continue this quest tomorrow morning,’ I thought. My attention was still on my Evil Eye skill, hoping to find a miracle.
But if we did it, our chances of finding them were getting slimmer since they might have gotten farther away. Besides, even if we did find them, we would probably lose some of them since the Hounds took their anger out on those little demons before we arrived at their headquarters. Yet without a clue or anything, looking for them randomly would be useless.
Moments later, a long exhale came out of my mouth as I shook my head from side to side, indicating I didn’t find them. I was just about to cancel my skill but the blood stains on the rock near the fence caught my attention.
My One Eyed Demon flew over to it and found several low-level wounded demons lying weakly there. Judging from their position, the explosion threw them here. Rather than their demonic form, they were in their mini size. Something similar to Kir’s hamster form. They were a two-tailed black kitten, a horned red husky puppy, a four-eyed raven, and a gray-winged bunny.
I canceled my Evil Eye and opened my eyes.
“I found them,” I said.
My feet moved to where they were. While Foxy and Maria immediately followed me. I also telephated to the others to meet me at the place. Especially Yuffy since I was not sure those demons had much time. They were small-level demons just like Kir in his hamster form and they only had half their HP left.
Once we were in that place, Foxy called out their names with a face full of tears. Those were weird names, the same as her original name before I changed her name to Foxy. For sure, I would rename them later.
Quickly, I used my Dark Healing on them. While Yuffy used her Healing Light. Rather than saving the demon, I felt like an animal rescuer.
Slowly they opened their eyes. Their pupils moved side to side before they snapped their eyes in panic and retreated to the corner between the rocks in fear. They curled their small trembling bodies with their eyes fixed on us.
“It’s okay, we won’t hurt you,” I said.
I lifted my hands a bit, showing my palms at them, and backed away slowly to show my good intentions. So did the others, except Foxy. She approached them slowly, dropped her knees, and called out their names once more. Her gratitude was clearly visible on her face. A happy smile on her lips.
They frowned and squeezed their eyes, focusing their eyes on Foxy.
“Zag’thoxath Muggulod, is that you?” said the bunny in doubt. That was Foxy’s real name.
“Yes, it’s me. I came to take you guys,” replied Foxy. She had changed a lot since she met me. Her two tails had turned into four tails. While originally a fox demon’s tail would increase every 100 years. But she evolved faster due to her level which increased significantly.
Their fear turned into relief. Their eyes started to glaze over.
“It’s Zag’thoxath Muggulod!” said the puppy.
As if on cue, they jumped into Foxy’s arms.
“Where have you been?” said the raven.
“We thought you were dead,” added the kitten.
“It’s a long story. I’ll explain later.” Foxy released her embrace.
“For sure I came to pick you up.”
Her statement was met with more tears.
“Zag’thoxath… The Hounds—The Hounds have killed the others,” sobbed the bunny.
“I know. Sorry, I was too weak to help you,” Foxy whispered in regret.
“But you came back… you came back to us…” said the puppy.
“Yes. I will also get you out of here.” Foxy stood up and held out her hand to them. “We’re going to a better place.”
All of them nodded.
“Let’s get out of here,” said the kitten.
“But before that…” Foxy turned to me. “We have to settle the contract first,” she added.
According to Foxy, the Hounds weren’t the only troublesome demons in this place, and bringing a bunch of low-level demons like them through the forest would lure the other higher-level demons. They didn’t like other demons trying to save their target.
I pointed to the unfinished building.
“I think that building is enough to settle all of this.” I would also ask Maria to use her barrier for extra protection so the queen would think it was Foxy who made a pact with them.
After they answered me with a nod, we went to the building.
