The Incubus System Chapter 159. I'm Sorry...

Celia and Foxy's PoV

The deserted station was very messy due to the demon's attack. Celia's heart was pounding, her mind filled with confusion as her feet moved quickly following her brother, running towards the outside. Her eyes stared at Ethan's back in front of her.

Today, she went home late since she decided to study at the school library with her friends for tomorrow's exam. But she did not expect her decision would bring disaster for her. When her train stopped at Nighthallow Station, suddenly the demons attacked them and caught some people, she was one of them. Surprisingly, although she remembered that her brother was not there when the demons closed the door with a strange power. But after she whispered her brother's name out of fear, suddenly 'Ethan' appeared by her side and hugged her. In her confusion, he said his gentle words which reminded her that he fulfilled his promise.

'I told you, right? Just call me. I'll go straight to your place. '

At that time, the other hostages did not realize this because their attention was focused on the demons in front of them. But she realized this oddity very clearly.

To be honest she was happy that her beloved brother was able to fulfil his promise. She even hugged him tightly since she was so afraid of the demons, though she knew it was impossible for a human to appear suddenly like that.

As her mind returned to reality, she shifted her gaze to her brother's hand that held her, making sure they didn't part as their feet walked down the stairs. Celia's confusion and doubt got deeper as they got further away from the winged demon that had suddenly appeared in front of them. Even though the winged demon looked unfriendly, when the demon was protecting her and her brother, Celia realized something that had kept bothering her. The demon was wearing Ethan's shirt!

She couldn't possibly be wrong and if it was a coincidence, then it was too unreal, just like Ethan who suddenly appeared next to her. Because the top button on the shirt had her initial name. A week ago, when she was tidying up her brother's room, she found that one of his favourite shirt buttons was missing. She knew Ethan needed a lot of shirts to apply for jobs, so she fixed it. She remembered since she couldn't find a similar button, she took it from her beloved shirt and sewed it on to Ethan's. That's why today she pinned the top of her shirt with a pin to replace it. Moreover ... That demon's scent and her brother were too similar.

As she could not contain the confusion in her head, Celia stopped her steps.

"Brother, wait!"

Foxy stopped her steps and turned to Celia in confusion.

"What's wrong?" she asked.

Without warning, Celia suddenly approached her and brought her face close to Foxy's neck. Foxy could only stiffen in shock, but she wasn't worried because she was sure her disguise was perfect.

Celia realized her brother's scent was completely different and it made her suspicions become clearer.

"Celia, this place is very dangerous. We have to get out of here," warned Foxy. She even could imitate Ethan's voice perfectly.

Celia distanced herself as her confusion filled her head since the man in front of her was too similar to her brother.

"Brother, did you lend your special shirt to your friend?" she asked out of blue.

Foxy paused for a moment to think since she didn't know whether Ethan had ever done it or not.Cheêck out latest novels at novelhall.com

"Where is your brother?" I was not sure Foxy would dare disobey my order and leave Celia alone.

Celia's eyes trembled in doubt and confusion.

"Isn't it ... My brother is in front of me now?"

My heart was beating fast. I never thought she could find out my identity this fast.

"You shouldn't make fun out of a demon, miss," I said unconsciously. I knew I shouldn't have said that, but my feelings were mixed. I was afraid she would act cold like she used to if she found out everything. I was afraid that this bitter truth would destroy my relationship with her again. Besides this was too sudden for me. Unlike Emma, I could live without her if she couldn't accept my identity or hated me. But not with Celia ... She was my precious little sister and I didn't want to lose her. That's why I wanted to make a lot of preparations before telling her everything.

"No ... You're my brother, right?" she insisted. Her trembling legs stepped slowly towards me.

"How can you be so sure?" My feet started moving backwards in reflex. I could fight the demons fearlessly, yet I was so afraid that Celia hated me and was disappointed after finding out that her brother had turned into a terrible creature.

"Of course, I'm sure ... Because there's my initial name on your top shirt button ..." Celia's feet continued to move slowly approach me.

My steps stopped, my other hand pulled my shirt as I looked at the top button of my shirt. This was a special shirt that father bought for both of us and it has our initial names on the buttons of the shirt. My father deliberately made that special request since our shirts were in the same colour, while our sizes were not much different. I remembered I was supposed to wear this shirt a week ago, but it was missing a button, that's why I changed to another shirt and hung this by the back of the door. After that, I forgot about it because I was too busy.

My heart was beating even faster as I realized what her words were true. My panic swept over me, my brain tried to find an excuse but I couldn't find it. I couldn't possibly say I borrowed this shirt from 'Ethan' because Celia knew I wouldn't lend this special shirt to anyone.

Celia stepped past my lance. Her teary eyes looked at me deeply.

"Brother ... Why don't you say anything to me? Why are you not being honest with me?"

I froze without being able to say a word. My eyes stared at her full of emotions that I couldn't explain in words.

She stopped in front of me. Her trembling hands touched my mask and released it, revealing my face completely.

"Are you afraid that I will hate you?" she guessed. And she guessed it right.

"Yes ..." I couldn't deny it anymore.

"You are my only brother ... Even if you turn into a monster ... I will not hate you."

My heart wavered. It felt like it was about to stop, my emotions and feelings flared up after hearing her words. I lowered my hand and released the black lance in my hand as I cancelled my Demonic Spike, turning all of my black lances into the dark aura that vanished like smoke. Then I hugged her tightly as if I didn't want to let her go anymore.

"I'm sorry ..." I whispered. I didn't know what to say anymore.

After that, I could feel Celia's hands moving to hug me as her tears rolled down on my shirt.

"Brother ..."
