The Incubus System

The Incubus System Chapter 640. A Demon Hunter in The Demon Lord's Embrace IV 

The time had shown 9:21 PM when Emma was asleep in my arms. A sense of warmth and contentment washed over me. Her soft, delicate body was nestled against mine, and I couldn't resist the urge to gently caress her as she slept. Each stroke of my fingers was like a soothing melody that danced across her skin, lulling her into a deeper slumber. A gesture that didn't match my appearance.

The room was bathed in the soft glow of moonlight, and the only sounds were the gentle rustle of the sheets and the quiet breathing of Emma as she slept. I couldn't help but marvel at how peaceful and serene she looked as she lay there in my arms. Her long, silver hair cascaded down her shoulders in loose waves, and her features were relaxed.

"You were the first to accept me and now, you are also the first to do it with me in my true form. Thank you for accepting me and trusting me, Emma..." I whispered in gratitude. My eyes were locked on her. I ended it by leaning in and pressing a gentle kiss to her forehead.

She stirred slightly at the touch but didn't wake up. I smiled to myself upon her response.

Without moving from my position, I flicked my finger and used my Telekinesis. My invisible power swirled around the room, tidying up all the items that had fallen due to the wind from my wings earlier. The books that were strewn across the floor, were now neatly stacked on the bookshelf. The picture frames that were knocked over, now standing straight on the table. Everything was perfectly choreographed and executed with precision.

At the same time, I deactivated my demon lord form. In an instant, the horns that had adorned my forehead, the sharp claws that had replaced my fingers, and the thick, black scales that had covered my skin all vanished. In less than a second, I was once again a human with no trace of any demonic appearance.

"Good night, Emma," I whispered once again, brushing her hair gently. A hint of melancholy was clear in my voice. A sense of longing and sadness hit me hard as I got up from her bed. I felt like I wanted to stay there all night so when she woke up, I was the first person she saw.

I snapped my fingers, and once again my invisible power lifted the blanket and covered her naked body, ensuring she was warm and comfortable. Then with one final glance at Emma, I opened my portal and stepped through, returning to my room.

As I stepped out of the portal and emerged into my room, my gaze was drawn once more to the all-consuming abyss behind me. I could feel a great reluctance that tore my heart. I wanted to stay with her just a moment longer, but I had other duties. So many duties, in fact, that they seemed never-ending.

With a deep sigh, I forced myself to steady my racing heart and remind myself of a famous quote, "With great power comes great responsibility, Ethan."  

It was a sentiment that I knew all too well. It was the very reason that truly great people could never relax. Although they never searched for trouble, trouble always found them. It was the same with me. I had never sought the Demon Hunter Association's attention, but they were after me.

With great effort, I pushed my legs to move and made my way down the stairs. My ears were immediately met with the playful chatter of Foxy and Celia, who were playing with my pets in the living room. 

"You haven't slept yet?" I queried.

As Celia turned to face me, her lips curved upward into a warm, inviting smile. "With this many fluffy friends, I don't think I could ever fall asleep," she said, her words filled with joy. Her arms were wrapped tightly around Buni, who was clearly trying to free himself from her grasp.

While Red jumped excitedly at Celia's feet, barking, "Me! Me! Me! Hug me!" as his tail wagged with unrestrained glee. 

Foxy, sitting on the sofa beside Celia, was occupied with Rave. Her fingers gently stroked Shadow, who lay curled up in her lap, lost in peaceful slumber.

I looked at the scene before me. My mind wandered that this place was starting to resemble an animal shelter. I had a fox, a cat, a dog, a bird, and a bunny. Okay, correction, a demon shelter, to be precise. 

"Sorry to interrupt your playtime but it's time to work," I said, my voice tinged with regret as I addressed Celia.

A hint of disappointment was evident in her tone as she asked, "Now? Can't you take them later?" her voice tinged with a hint of pleading.

I replied with a flat stare, "No, I still have other work to attend to later," I reminded her, my tone leaving no room for negotiation.

But rather than her, it was Shadow who answered me. Rising from Foxy's lap with a graceful, fluid motion, he spoke, "Well, work is work. We can play again later." His words were laced with a hint of arrogance. He had been admiring Lord Damon too much since moving to Illusion Night Towers.

"Only kill trespassers, not humans," I warned, my tone serious.

Rave, who was perched atop Foxy's head, added, "What if the demon hunters are trying to catch us or kill us?" 

Foxy looked up at Rave with a serious expression. "You can't kill them. Just run," she said, her voice firm and unyielding.

"Eh... That's not interesting..." Rave whined, his tone filled with disappointment.

I took a deep breath, my mind plagued with thoughts of why my innocent pets turned this way. "C'mon, no whining, okay?" I said, my voice firm yet patient. As I spoke, I activated my Demonic form. A masquerade covered two-thirds of my face, completing my appearance.

"Yes, sir," they replied in unison, their voices filled with respect.

With a snap of my fingers, I opened my portal, and my pets immediately jumped and followed me through it, leaving Foxy and Celia. 

I glanced back at Celia before entering the portal, "You should sleep early," I reminded her.

But Celia answered me with a pout, "You party pooper," she complained, her voice filled with disappointment.

I sneered, "Crybaby," before running through the portal, my pets trailing behind me. 

As I went, I could hear Celia yelling at me in anger behind me, "Brother!"
