The Incubus System Chapter 186. Strange Emotions

"But the problem is, the crack does not get better but it gets worse. The energy disturbances are getting worse and more frequent, even now other Lord Damon's loyal followers are also helping us out. At least there are dozens of big cracks that appear every day randomly," said Tania again.

'Dozens?' I was shocked since I thought that big cracks only appeared occasionally. While Emma also showed the same expression as me.

"Lord Damon ordered an investigation for the source of the disturbance since he guessed there was another Demon Lord who was trying to break into the human world to expand his/her territory. But all our investigations were in vain. That's why we concluded that the disturbance came from the human world. And regarding about the Demoness' Maid ... That means the other demon lords have started to notice the crack problem and will take the opportunity to expand their territory soon." Tania let out a deep breath. A trace of annoyance on her face.

"I know they will find out about this sooner or later. Moreover, Lord Damon has been covering this up for a year. It's just ... I never think that, despite our hard work, we still haven't found a solution yet."

"Why Lord Damon didn't defeat those demon lords?" I asked curiously. I heard that Lord Damon was the strongest Demon Lord, he should be able to do that, right?

"It's not that easy, Damian. Even though Lord Damon is the sole ruler of Dark Dimension and the Demon Kingdom but the other demon lords keep their eyes on the throne. In other words, even though they are being nice in front of him, behind him, they are ready to kill him at any time. Unfortunately, every Demon Lord has authority over a territory and if he/she died then the demons in that territory will revolt. Therefore, Lord Damon can't kill the demon lords recklessly or the demon world will fall into chaos, " explained Tania.

From her words, I could see that Lord Damon had killed several of those demon Lord's before. It was just, if he killed them all, it would be tantamount to fighting all the demons in the dark dimension.

"Why Lord Damon doesn't replace that demon lord with another loyal demon?" asked Emma out of blue. To be honest, I also just wanted to ask the same thing.

Tania chuckled.

"If you think their positions are the same as mayors or governors in the human world then you are wrong. Some of them are kings or queens of their kind. Therefore their position cannot be replaced by anyone. Some are guardians of the land and territories. If they die then disaster and chaos will hit the land."

"What about Lord Damon? What made him the supreme ruler of the dark dimension?" I asked curiously.

Tania turned to me and looked at me with a serious expression.

"Because Lord Damon is the dark dimension's pillar. It's his energy that has been protecting the borders between the human world and the demon world. That's why many demons hate him and also want to kill him. On the one hand, he protects the Dark dimension from outside attacks. On the other hand, it's his energy that prevented the demons from invading the human world. "

After those words left her mouth, my and Tania's eyes locked onto each other. And I caught her trying to give a message from there. Something she couldn't convey in words. I fell silent, my brain tried to process everything she had told me and gasped as I realized something. She said it was Lord Damon's energy that protected the border and previously said that the border between the human and demon worlds would be destroyed in the future. Didn't that mean Lord Damon was dying?

"What about the next demon lord?" I asked. Since she mentioned the demon kingdom before, he should have a successor, right? A prince or a princess.

Tania looked away from me, but her sadness was clearly visible on her face. It was as if my question had reminded her of a bad memory that she didn't want to remember. Then she shook her head from side to side in regret.

"Unfortunately ... Only Lord Damon's descendant who can have that power. Even if another demon lord takes his place, I'm afraid ..." Her words stopped there. But I already understood what she wanted to say. Even if another Demon Lord took his place, the borders between the human world and the demon world would still be destroyed.

"You know ... Lord Damon and Lilieth have lost too much to protect and maintain the balance of these two worlds," added Tania.

"Lost? What do you mean?" asked Emma again.

Tania looked at both of us with serious gazes.

"Several years before this crack problem, some demon lords revolted after they discovered Lord Damon had covered the huge crack in Lightglen City with his power for the past thousand years. It was the biggest rebellion in the dark dimension's history and I believe they had been planning it for a long time. And because of it... Our unborn prince died. "

* Ba-thump *

In an instant, my heart suddenly skipped a beat. There was a sadness mixed with anger in me when I heard that. Even though it was vague, somehow, I could feel Lilieth and Lord Damon's frustration when they lose their child.

'Is it because Lilieth gave me her power? So I can feel her emotions at that time? ' Unconsciously, I clenched my hands as I held back the strange emotions that suddenly overflowed within me.

I glanced at Tania and realized she was watching me again, so I quickly took a deep breath to calm myself down and endured the strange emotion.

After seeing me calmer, Tania spoke again.

"At that time, in order to prevent the demons from escaping to the human world through that crack. Lilieth took huge blows from the two demon lords. Those attacks hit right to her belly and she was only two months pregnant. She was dying. Although I could save her, her baby had become ashes ... "

* Ba-thump *

My heart suddenly beat fast again. My sorrow and anger flooded my heart and mind more than before. Somehow I could even hear Lilieth's frustrated screams in my ears. I clenched my fists tightly holding back the uncontrollable emotions that suddenly overflowed within me. Even I couldn't cover it from the expression on my face.

Tania fell silent again. Her eyes were observing me. While Emma held my hand and looked at me worriedly.

"Ethan, are you okay?"

I didn't answer, instead, I closed my eyes and took a few deep breaths to calm myself down. After I calmed down, I opened my eyes and unclenched my fists.

"I'm fine ..." Even though it was weird, I could understand this strange emotion since this incident had made a huge wound in Lilieth's heart and maybe it mixed up when she gave her power to me. I meant... Even my mother was so frustrated when she miscarried in her third pregnancy, although she already had me and Celia, let alone Lilieth who had been waiting for this child for hundreds of years.

But then I frowned.

'Huh? How do I know Lilieth and Lord Damon have been waiting for this child for hundreds of years? Is this also one of Lilieth's memories that got mixed up when she revived me? '

"That's all I can tell you." Tania's voice returned my and Emma's attention to her.

Emma looked at Tania in a gloomy face.

"I never thought ... It was the demon lord who protected us ..." she said sadly.

"Can they have another child?" I asked. If Lord Damon didn't have a successor, I could imagine those demon lords fighting each other for that throne and worst of all --- the borders between the demon world and the human world would be destroyed!

"It's not that easy, Damian. Lord Damon's power is enormous. It's not just any woman who can hold his seed and bear his child. It even took hundreds of years for Lilieth to get pregnant," said Tania with a frown.

"Can't we do something about this?" I asked.

Tania shook her head.

"We've done whatever we can. Right now we can only wait ..."
