The Incubus System Chapter 160. The Truth

After that we were silent. I knew she didn't hate me, but I didn't know what to say to her. After a while, she let go of her embrace and lifted her head to look at me.

"Brother ... What happened?" One of her hands went up and touched the side of my face in hesitation. Her eyes that were slightly red and wet with tears looked at me deeply.

"It's a long story ..." I said with a wistful smile. My hand overlapped her hand and rubbed it slowly against my cheek. I could feel her soft skin against mine. My heart was pounding and my emotions flared up. Happiness and relief mixed in me after she accepted my identity.

"Did everything start from a week ago?" she guessed.

I was stunned since she got it right. My surprise was visible from my expression.Fôllôw new stories at novelhall.com

"How do you know it?"

"I realized you changed a lot since then. You never fought before yet you could defeat Bern easily that day ... After that everything seemed easy for you. You solved our financial problems, paid my college registration fee, fought Franz." Then she made a short pause. Her eyes trembled side to side in emotions.

"I remember you said you took a tutoring job and they paid you in advance. But a tutor's salary can't be that much ..."

'She guessed everything right ...' I knew I had changed a lot that day and I couldn't cover it up since I just explored my new self.

"It could be mom who sent the money."

She shook her head slowly and smiled bitterly as she took her hand away from my face.

"I know mom blocked your contact that day. Because I saw you ---- How you desperately tried to contact mom." She pressed her lips in sorrow and regret for a moment.

"That's why I agreed to Bern's request ... Because I know you did your best for me ... For us ..." I could see her tears rolled on her cheeks.

Seeing her tears, my hands moved to wipe them gently. I didn't expect her to find out about it.

"Since that day I realized you always come home late almost every day. Also found dad's suit missing from his wardrobe and marks on your body ... I also noticed the smell of your laundry started to change as if you slept with many different women. Sometimes ... I could smell blood from it. I know you are not a playboy nor a cruel person but I'm sure there must be a clear reason for all of this. But you didn't say anything to me ... and covered it in a sweet manner, "she added with a trembling voice.

I shook my head from side to side.

"No, I did not act like that because I wanted to cover this up. I just --- don't want to lose you."

Celia's gaze was full of emotion and sadness.

"You are my brother. How could I hate you?"

I clamped both sides of her head with my hands and made her look straight at me.

"Look at me, Celia. I'm a demon. I'm the enemy of mankind. How could I not be afraid that you would hate me? " I lowered my head slightly. Traces of sadness were clear on my face.

"Besides, at that time you were cold to me. If you hated me when I was human, how can I tell you that I have turned into a demon?" My eyes that looked at her show how serious I was.

"Are you that scared?" She looked surprised by my confession.

"Yes ... You are the only one left in our family. I don't want to lose you."

A wistful smile began to appear on her face.

"Are there demons who don't kill humans?" she said in disbelief. I forgot what ordinary people knew was demons killing humans even though they didn't know why.

"Have you ever killed demon hunters who were chasing you before?" she made another wild guess with a worried tone.

"Celia, I have never killed humans, including the demon hunters who are after me," I confirmed once again.

"Demons kill humans to eat. Just like lions kill deers. I told you I am an incubus, I eat through sex. I don't kill humans."

"But, what about the blood smell on your clothes?" she asked in confusion.

"It's either because of the demon blood, my own blood or ..." I paused since it was kinda awkward for me to say it.

"My partners' virgin blood."

Her face turned red in embarrassment.

"Vi-Virgin blood?" she said in surprise and disbelief.

I smiled nervously.

"I already said I have some partners and some of them were virgin. So ..." I stopped my words since I was sure she already knew the rest.

"How many of them?" Celia asked, still in the same tone.

"It's 7 partners and 1 servant in total." I cleared my throat.

"Including you."

"Eh? Me?" she said in a puzzled expression.

"Do you remember what we did last week?"

"Yes." Her face was getting redder.

"It counted as sex, though it was only an oral," I explained.

"So since that day ... I'm also one of your partners?" she asked for my confirmation once again.

"Yeah. That's why I can find out that you are in danger."

"If your other partners are in danger. Are you going to save them too?"

"Of course," I said with a smile.

Slowly her smile appeared and a slight chuckle escaped her mouth.

"Why are you laughing?" There was a feeling of joy in me since she started showing her smile.

"You know. You sound more like a heroic seducer than a demon."

"I'll take that as a compliment."

- Clang!

A falling iron's sound startled us. Reflexively, we turned to the origin of the sound and my expression turned serious.

"Who's there?" I took out my Demonic Spike again. I didn't know if it was the police or the rescue team but I had to threaten him so he wouldn't scream to call his friends.
