Chapter 682: She Caught Me

The Incubus System Chapter 672. She Caught Me

Her voice was low and serious as she began to speak. "Let me cut this straight," she said, her eyes locking onto mine. "A few months ago, something strange happened within the demon hunter association. One of our own, a demon hunter, was gravely injured, and a female demon hunter came to his aid. But when our team tried to locate the demons responsible for the attack, they were nowhere to be found."

"I knew then that we had to investigate further," she continued, her voice taking on a steely edge. "Demons do not simply vanish into thin air, and so I began to dig deeper into this mysterious occurrence. It was then that I discovered something truly concerning."

She paused, her eyes flickering with a mixture of anger and suspicion. "When I checked the street not far from where the attack had taken place, I found drops of blood. At first, I assumed it was the blood of the wounded demon hunter, but there was something odd about it. Our team had never passed that spot before, and the female demon hunter who had aided the injured hunter also wasn't injured. I decided to take a sample of the blood, and what I found was truly shocking."

Without giving me a chance to speak, she continued. "The blood was a perfect match with the demon blood that we found in the Nighthallow City's office," she said, her voice ringing with accusation. "I knew immediately what it meant."

My mind raced as I tried to piece together the puzzle she had laid out before me. The demon blood on the street... that was from my fight against the Imps. I remembered the pain of those wounds, the time when I fought tooth and nail against them. But I had never suspected that the association could be used as evidence against me. I never thought that could be proof that I was there.

"Why are you telling me all of this?" I asked, my voice trembling with a fake fear. "I have nothing to do with all this," I denied.

She fixed me with a cold stare, her eyes glittering with a dangerous intensity. "Oh, I think you have everything to do with this," she said, her voice low and menacing. "You see, in that office... I found out something that I've been keeping a secret from others."

"I found your blood there," she continued, her voice taking on a note of triumph. "It was only a little bit, and most of it was the blood of the demon. But that one... it was your blood. And so I just came to this conclusion. Ethan Strongheart had died that day, but a demon pretended to be him and lived as him. Or something happened to him, and he has turned into a demon. But whichever it is... you can drop your act, Mr. Great Demon," she demanded in a firm tone. The orbs moved closer to me.

'Ah... she caught me...' I thought. Yet there was no panic in me since I already saw this coming. I wondered if it was because of the previous message. And this was clearly an impromptu plan. But one thing was a mystery to me. I didn't understand why I didn't see any of this from her memory. Moreover, the fact that she turned off the CCTV was a sign that she was not sure that I was really the Great Demon, or maybe... she planned something since she knew who I was.

I looked at her, predicting my chance. But as she leaned in closer, her eyes locked onto mine with a fierce intensity, I knew that I had no choice but to comply.

My lips were sealed, my thoughts a jumbled mess as I maintained my composure and put on my best poker face. My heart pounded in my chest like a wild thing since this confession would be different from before. She didn't have any feelings for me and asked this because she was the chairwoman of the demon hunter association.

She must have sensed my unease, because she spoke again, her voice calm and measured. "The same as you said last time," she began, her eyes never leaving mine. "I just want to talk. I know if you had ill intentions, you should have hurt Celia. But you don't," she said firmly, her tone leaving no room for argument.
