The Incubus System Chapter 184. I Will Give My Loyalty to You

"Special name? What do you mean?" I said in confusion. After thinking about it, that name just appeared without anyone choosing it. I thought that name came from my subconscious and my alter ego who thought Damian Lucio was a suitable name for my Incubus form.

"Unfortunately I can't tell you in detail about that. You will find out about it soon," said Tania with a smile.

"Okay." From her words, I could tell she didn't want to tell me any more than this, but since it was just a name, so I didn't want to make a big deal about it. Besides, the name 'Damian Lucio' sounded pretty cool and easy to remember.
"Rather than that, can you tell me about the Demoness' Maid?" I asked.

Tania was quite surprised after hearing it.
"Was your previous opponent a Demoness' maid?" I could catch a trace of worry in the tone of her voice.

"Yes."

"What kind of demon is she?" she asked curiously.

"She's a Maiden Spider Demon," I replied.

"Tsk!" She clicked her tongue, her expression turned annoyed.
"So ... They also have found out about this," she muttered.

"She also mentioned the Queen," I added. I didn't know what was going on, but I wanted to find out as much as I could.

"I know," she said as a tired breath escaped her mouth.

"Can you tell me about her or the queen?"

She looked at me in the eyes.
"I can't."

"Why?" I said with a frown. I was one of the demon generals. At least I wanted to know what was going on. Apart from this, the Spider Demon also said that the Queen would enslave me forever, at least I had to prepare myself since I didn't want to become another demon's slave.

Tania glanced at Emma, who was just listening to our conversation in silence. Looks like Emma was confused about what happened since I didn't tell her much about the Demon Generals. Well, it couldn't be helped since I only met other Demon Generals recently.
"It's fine, she is my partner." I realized Tania objected to Emma's presence since she wasn't a demon like us.

"Has she made a contract with you?" asked Tania.

"Contract?" I said in confusion.

"Yes." She turned to Emma who was just listening to our conversation since it seemed like she also wanted to know what was going on.
"This is the dark dimension's top secret. There are only a few demons who know about this. I can only let her know if she has given her full loyalty to you and is already within your Demon's Rule skill. Otherwise ..." Tania raised her hand that glowed dimly and aimed at Emma.
"I have to have to knock her out for a while. I don't want to take the risk," she continued.

Her words made me think of Kitty who used the stun spell on Foxy last night, even though she only wanted to warn me. Likewise, with my second meeting with Lilieth, she also used her stun spell on Mia. I turned to Emma, at least I had to tell her what was going to happen next so she wouldn't be confused. As I just opened my mouth, Emma suddenly spoke.
"I will give my loyalty to you," she said with a serious look without hesitation.

"Are you sure about it?" I made sure once again. I hadn't checked about my Demon's Rule skill yet, so what I knew was that I could put restrictions on my partners. But that was tantamount to tying them and forcing them to follow my wish.

"Yes, I'm sure about it," said Emma in the same tone.

Seeing our seriousness, Tania lowered her hand as laughter left her mouth. Meanwhile, we could only look at her in confusion.
"Ah, I'm sorry," she said. Her hand wiped the tears in the corner of her eye as she swallowed the rest of her laughter.
"Let me guess. Have you never used your Demon's Rule skill before?" she guessed.

I shook my head.
"I don't want to force my partners to obey me."

Tania laughed again after hearing my words, while Emma and I exchanged glances in confusion.
"Looks like you guys misunderstood that skill," said Tania as soon as she could make her voice. Her laugh was still heard between her words.
"Demon's Rule is a skill High Demons use for marriage. In other words, your partner's status will turn into your legal wife, at least for us, demons, since the demon world doesn't have a wedding ceremony like human's. Besides, the demon world is full of dangers, so the male demons need something to signify that she is his wife to prevent other male demons from touching her. This skill can provide protection and increase his wife's strength, regardless of what the race of the demon's wife is. That's why you can impose restrictions on them, "she explained.

I was surprised to hear Tania's explanation since I thought Demon's Rule was no different from a skill used to force my partners to follow my wishes. But it turned out I could use it to protect them and even increased their strength. But still ... Not everyone wanted to be a demon's wife. Since having sex and being a wife were different things. Even though my partners and I did it because of our feelings, tying them with a demon like me was something else. Besides, despite my status as a demon General, in the human world, I was still an evil creature that must be exterminated. Also ... My thoughts went back to my parent's divorce. I knew marriage was a sacred thing at least ... For humans.

Emma's hand gripped mine, dissolved my thoughts and turned my attention to her.
"Ethan, please don't make that face," she said with a smile. Her eyes looked at me deeply.

Noticing my face that had turned gloomy when I was deep in thought earlier, I returned my expression to normal and smiled at her.
"Sorry, I thought of something else," I said.

"Do you mind if I become your wife?" she asked, her face flushed in embarrassment.

"Huh?" I could only make a stupid voice and look at her in disbelief.

Tania let out a giggle.
"You shouldn't be shocked like that since your partner made the right decision." Then her giggle faded and replaced it with a serious expression.
"This crack problem is getting worse, it doesn't even rule out that the boundary between the human and demon worlds will be destroyed in the future. Being a high demon's wife is a great way to protect herself and gather strength to fight other demons. Because if she is only relying on her fighting strength as a demon hunter, I'm not sure she will be able to defeat the other demons. "

Emma and I both looked at Tania with serious faces. Also, I could feel Emma's hand gripping mine tighter after she heard Tania's explanation.
"But she is a demon hunter. The magic power in her body has Holy elements. Will that skill hurt her or change her?" I made sure. Of course, what I meant was whether she would turn into a demon or remain as an elf.

“Don't worry. Giving loyalty to a demon doesn't mean she will turn into a demon. Well…” Tania cleaned her throat.
"If she wants to stay with you forever, you can change her. But of course, it's back to your partner. If she doesn't want it, you can't force her."

At least although the skill description was quite intimidating, now I could confirm that skill was safe for all my partners. I turned to Emma.
"I'll make you my wife," I said without hesitation. My doubts disappeared in an instant. Since things were this bad, this wasn't the time to think about marriage like normal humans. My priority was to protect the people I cared about, including my partners.

"Then I will give my loyalty to you," she said with a gentle smile.
