The Incubus System Chapter 648. You Are The Lord of Perverts ? III
"Spill it out," she insisted, her voice filled with a mix of anger and determination. I could tell that she was not going to let this go and was determined to get to the bottom of what I had said.
I refused to back down, my eyes meeting hers with a steely gaze. "I know you heard it," I said, my voice firm and unyielding.
"I did," she admitted, her voice soft and filled with resignation.
I looked at her with a flat stare, my eyes were cold and unemotional. "So? What do you want from me? An apology? I won't say it." I challenged her, although I knew that she was not going to be easily swayed by my words.
She snorted in annoyance in reply.
Then, silence descended upon us.
I lay myself down. My eyes closed, trying to ignore her. I was purposely not saying anything or apologizing since she was the one who started this in the first place. I even pretended to sleep, lying there like a corpse with my hands resting on my chest.
Despite her silence, I was confident that it wouldn't last long. Her loneliness would soon get the better of her, and she would reach out to me once again. And I was right.
"Ethan..." she called out to me, her voice soft and hesitant.
I remained silent, pretending not to hear her.
She nodded, her expression becoming more serious. "All right," she agreed, her voice filled with a sense of understanding. "I won't make that face again."
I sat down and gazed at Puriel. "So I assume we can talk seriously again?" I said, my tone filled with a sense of urgency. I needed to know that she was ready to have a real conversation and that we could finally make progress toward finding a solution to her situation.
She gave me another nod, indicating that she was ready to talk.
"Okay," I continued, not wasting any time. "About when I can free you, I'll talk about it later. I'm waiting for more information from my woman." Of course, I was referring to Mia. She was working hard to find an alternative commodity aside from Puriel's angelic power. On the other hand, she knew that cutting the vaccine completely wasn't a good idea, either for her kingdom or demon hunter.
Puriel's eyebrows furrowed as she looked at me. "Your woman?" she asked a note of curiosity in her voice.
"She is a princess from the kingdom where you are now," I explained. "She is looking for a way out since your angelic power is the main commodity of her kingdom for hundreds of years."
She was silent for a moment, deep in thought. I could see her mind working, could sense her considering all the implications of what I had just told her. "I actually don't mind sharing my power with them," she said finally, her voice filled with a sense of resolve. "Especially since they need it to fight demons. I just want my freedom," she explained, her eyes meeting mine with a sense of determination.
I double-checked to make sure I had heard her correctly. "Are you absolutely sure about this?" It would certainly make our negotiations with the kingdom much easier.
Puriel nodded her head firmly. "I am sure. I understand that humans need my power to fight against demons, and I am willing to share it with them. Moreover, I know that angels no longer want to interfere in human affairs even though the demons are still among them."
"Well then, everything should become much simpler. But I do have one more request." I said, without missing a beat.
Puriel looked at me inquisitively, her head tilting to the side in an almost birdlike way. "What is it?" she asked, her voice filled with curiosity.
"My Angelic Seal," I replied, getting straight to the point. "Can you help me break it?"
