The Incubus System Chapter 508. The Vampire Queen's Invitation IV
Ethan's PoV
The red moon was already high when I arrived in front of a castle in the middle of Crimson Bloody Mountain. The castle was made of stone and had a medieval design, which reminded me of Dracula's castle in horror movies. I even started imagining the courtyard was filled with horrible impales with splashes of blood everywhere.
'I wonder if the interior is as antique as the exterior,' I thought. My brain immediately imagined the old medieval interior.
The gate opened and let out a creaking sound that pierced my ears.
-Krieeett---Crack—crack---crack!
'Yeah, classic horror movie, Ethan. And you are the protagonist,' I joked to myself to ease my tension.
The wolf entered and stepped on the yard. A strange garden scene entered my view. It looked beautiful and an eerie garden with black roses and thorns everywhere. But at least it looked better than the forest.
The wolf stopped at the entrance and I jumped from there. The vampires immediately turned into their humanoid forms and ushered me in. I could imagine the classic medieval armors lined up everywhere and a lot of coffins.
But to my surprise, the interior was the same as the human's modern antique style. What distinguishes it was the floor and the wall was made of stone. Also, the maids wore modern maid uniforms.
A maid came up to me and bowed to me politely. From her cold face and professional demeanor, even though I didn't check her level, I was sure she was one of the queen's subjects.
"Welcome to the castle, sir. The queen is waiting for you in the dining hall. Please follow me," she said. Without waiting for my answer, she turned and walked.
I tailed her and snapped my fingers. My 'broke student' attire was replaced by a suit that I usually used in the human world. Just to make sure I was presentable although I was pretty sure she only saw me as her food. Her drink to be precise.
We stopped in front of a huge door and she opened it for me. She gestured at me to enter the room and I replied with a nod.
Once I entered the dining hall, a long table that I usually saw in historical films entered my view. Rows of chairs were along either side and the table was filled with strange food that I had never seen before.
Although the food couldn't be said to be bizarre, the color and the shape were kinda weird.
'Local food?' I thought as I held back my cringe.
A female voice coming from the other end of the table took my eyes from the food to her. Despite her age being almost the same as Lord Damon, her elegant appearance and face made her look as if she was around her 30s.
"Welcome to my castle, sir---?" Indirectly she asked my name.
"Damian. My name is Damian, Your Majesty," I said politely, bowing to her.
"Damian," she repeated. "I hope you don't mind my sudden invitation," she continued.
"I don't mind, Your Majesty," I replied.
A smile appeared on her face.
She gestured at the chair across from her.
"Take a seat, Damian."
I simply nodded and followed her order even though I didn't understand why she asked me to sit on the seat farthest from her. But I guessed it was some kind of etiquette or rule in the medieval era that she still followed. After all, as far as I could see, there was no trap there.
My gaze kept on her as I used my skill. I had to be cautious with her even though I already knew what her purpose was.
'Observation.' Yes, since I had turned into a demon lord, I should be able to check her status.

I held my tired exhale as I realized her HP was above me. According to Lord Damon's explanation, most demon lords' HP points were above mine due to their battle experience. But that didn't mean I would lose completely since my quests kept giving extra statuses for my VIT and the others. Except my LUK of course.
Besides that, my quest also gave me more status since I was in the dark dimension and the quest was much more varied. It wasn't about defeating monsters or doing lewd acts again. Some were related to my mission. Some simply asked me to study the dark dimension's knowledge via books or the internet for a certain amount of time. Those quests showed my deepest desire to know more about the dark dimension.
What worries me, was not her HP, but her skills. Two high level skills and one epic skill. Moreover, two of them were skill areas. Somehow I felt grateful I had saved my servants from here. If we decided to fight all out, we might end up destroying the mountain.
Her giggles returned my attention to her.
"Don't be nervous, Damian. This is just a regular invitation. Please eat," she gestured at me.
Only the side of my table was filled with food. While her side was empty. Not even a glass of blood in front of her. It was clear who she would eat later. Me.
My eyes fell on the food in front of me. A bowl of blueish soup. A bucket of something similar to spicy fried chickens although from the shape I was sure it was not. A plate of purple bread in rose shapes and a huge goblet filled with chocolate liquid. But from the smell, I was sure it was not chocolate.
'Right, now what should I do…' If I refused, I was sure it would offend her but I was not sure this food was safe for me. She could have poisoned me.
