Chapter 161: Flash Of Light
The Incubus System Chapter 161. Flash Of Light
"It's me..." The fake Ethan came out of his hiding place with a sad and regretful expression.
As soon as I saw him I cancelled my Demonic Spike. While Celia hid behind me in fear.
"It's you again," she said with displeasure. She turned to me.
"Brother, that person is pretending to be you and trying to take me away."
"I think you are misunderstanding me. There's no way I can go against my master order," said Foxy calmly.
"Master?" said Celia in confusion.
Now I understood why Celia came back and didn't run away with her 'brother'.
"Celia, do you remember I had a servant?" To be honest, I didn't think that she could expose Foxy's disguise since it was so perfect.
"Ah!" In an instant, she quickly understood what I meant and turned to Foxy.
"You mean he ..."
"Yes. She is my servant. Her name is Foxy." I turned to Foxy.
"Foxy, turn back to your original form."
"Yes, master."
After hearing Foxy's answer, Celia immediately closed her eyes in fear. Her hands grabbed my shirt tighter. I guessed she thought Foxy had a similar appearance to those Hounds.
- Puff!
Foxy changed to her true form. Her regret was still evident on her face.
I held Celia's hand gently.
"Celia, don't be afraid. Open your eyes," I tried to shake off her fear.
Celia shook her head from side to side without opening her eyes. Looks like she was still scared because of the Hounds.
"I'm sorry, if I scared you, Celia," said Foxy apologetically. From her face, she seemed about to cry upon Celia's reaction. Foxy had accompanied Celia for a few days and really hoped to be friends with her, of course, Celia's reaction made her sad.
Hearing Foxy's voice which was far from scary, Celia opened her eyes slowly. Then her eyes blinked in disbelief before staring at Foxy in amazement.
"Are you sure she is a demon, not a rare hybrid-beast?"
"Yes, she is a fox demon and she is my servant. So she won't be able to hurt you," I made sure.
Celia released her grasps from me. Her eyes locked on Foxy and her fear slowly disappeared.
"Can I touch her?"
"Are you okay with that, Foxy?" I made sure.
"Yes. As long as she's not afraid of me," said Foxy.
Celia approached her in hesitation and stopped before her. Her eyes were observing Foxy, as if she was a weird art piece. Her lips slightly parted in wonder. Her hand slowly approached Foxy's head and brushed her hair.
In awkwardness, Foxy's ears twitched.
"You are so cute ..." said Celia. Her eyes were still on Foxy and continued to glance on her unmoving tail.
"Really?" Slowly, Foxy's gloomy face was replaced with a relieved smile. Her tail began to move slowly in happiness.
Celia nodded before turning to me.
"Brother, can she stay with us?" A trace of excitement could be heard from the tone of her voice.
Amid our laughter, I could faintly hear the sound of police and ambulances sirens.
'This is bad ... We have to go now.'
"We'll discuss that later. The police and rescue teams could come at any time," I said.
"Okay."
I extended my hand forward as I used my skill.
'Portal.'
[Set your destination.]
'My room, Ironshade Town.'
[The destination has been set.]
A portal that resembled a small black hole opened in front of me.
[The portal has opened! ]
While Celia looked at my portal in amazement. But I also caught her fear since it was something foreign to her.
"Brother ... What is it?"
"We can go home faster with this," I said.
"But ..." Her eyes stared at my portal in hesitation.
"It's okay. You have Foxy and me," I calmed her down.
She stepped closer to me accompanied by Foxy. Her eyes looked at the hole in caution.
"C'mon," I held out my hand to her and she took it. This way I hoped she would feel safer.
As we were about to step our feet to enter, a flash of light came from behind us followed by quick footsteps.
Swiftly, my hand grabbed my flu mask and put it on before turning to the origin of the light in reflex.
'Foxy, get Celia out of here!' I ordered her in my head. I did this on purpose so that person wouldn't know our names.
'Yes, Master!' Then without further ado, Foxy grabbed Celia's hand and pulled her into my portal. Luckily, Celia didn't say anything and followed her. It looks like she already knew, being trapped between humans and demons made me have to hide my identity from the public.
'Close the portal after targets arrive at the destination!'
[Waiting for Celia Strongheart and Foxy leaves the portal]
Quickly, I chased that person and took out my Demonic Spike.
