The Incubus System Chapter 189. The Demon Lord's Son and The Nephilim's Son

"Who?" I said curiously. Previously she had said that no one could replace Lord Damon but his descendants. Now she said there was someone who could replace him. Of course, it made me curious, because whoever he was, he must be a special demon.

But instead of answering my question directly, Tania said something else.
"Do you know about the two demon lords' battle a thousand years ago?" asked Tania.

"Yes, I know."

"Do you know that another Demon Lord is Lord Damon's younger brother?"

"His brother ?!" I said in disbelief. My forehead creased. I didn't know how many facts would surprise me today.
"I never heard of it," I continued. It was not written in our history books. In history, they only told us that the two demon lords wanted to rule the world. That's what made them kill each other. But Princess Eve of Euthenia was the one who made Lord Damon return to the dark dimension.

Tania smirked after seeing my reaction
"Of course you never heard of it. Because even in the dark dimension itself, only a few demons have known about this since Lord Damon covered it up to protect his father's honour."

"Does that battle have anything to do with the demon kingdom's throne?" I guessed.

"Yes, but that's not all. Lord Damon killed him because his brother wanted to unite the three worlds under his rule." Then Tania's face turned gloomy again. There was a trace of sadness on her face and a breath escaped her mouth.
"But I can understand it ... since his brother was a Nephilim who grew up in the human world and humans treated him cruelly in the past, so he became obsessed with it."

"Wait --- A Nephilim? A half-demon half-angel creature? I thought it was a myth," I said in confusion.

"Half High Angel, half Demon Lord, Damian. He is not just an ordinary creature. His power is the same as Lord Damon's," emphasised Tania.

This was the first time I had heard that angels were real since there wasn't a single book that mentioned them.

"Do angels exist?" Emma finally opened her voice even though her surprise was clearly visible on her face.

"If this world has demons as the dark dimension's ruler. Doesn't that mean there are angels as the light dimension's ruler? Besides ..." Tania turned to Emma as she lifted her index finger and pointed it at Emma.
"Aren't you, demon hunters using angel's power to fight the demons?"

I turned to Emma in shock, demanding an explanation from her. I just found out that the Demon Hunter Association had a relationship with angels.

While Emma shifted her gaze alternately at Tania and me in confusion.
"If you mean the holy magic power within me. I got it from the association's vaccine. But, haven't Holy Chain and Mana Strike been used by demon hunters for a long time?”Not only from her expression, but from her tone, indicating she was also confused.

It was the same as me.

Tania chuckled and lowered her hand.
“Do you know that humans can't have dark or holy elements' magic power?” Then her chuckle faded.
"So everything that has those two powers is a result of third party interference. Either Demons or Angels. But since they don't want to reveal their true forms, they manifest it by giving their powers to humans."

Then I turned to Emma and we exchanged glances with the same thought. That meant the association or vaccine maker had something to do with angels or the light dimension! This reminded me of the royal guard who asked about Mia before.
'Does that mean he has something to do with this too?' No ... Not just him, but Mia and the Kingdom of Serpent Rock. But now there was another question that bothered me a lot.
"So, if angels have been meddling for a long time. Then why they don't help Lord Damon?" I asked. After all, protecting humans from demons should be the angels' duty, not the Demon Lord's duty. Well, at least that's the stigma that had stuck in my head after playing several RPG games.

A tired breath came out of Tania's mouth.
"Unfortunately the angels have closed their dimension for a long time and don't want to interfere with the human world. I'm not sure they even know about our situation. That's why they used demon hunters to fight the demons." Then her expression turned annoyed.
"Just like in the past."

'What the hell?' I thought, if angels could work together with us, at least Lord Damon and the Demon Generals weren't fighting alone. But it looked like I was wrong.
"It's all up to that special demon in the end." I was just about to ask the demon's identity, but Yuffy interrupted me.

"Mom, why are you mentioning that annoying demon lord? It's an ancient battle. Does it have anything to do with this? Isn't that demon lord dead?" said Yuffy in a displeased tone. She turned her gaze in another direction.
"Besides, that Erebus guy only created trouble for us."

From Yuffy's words, I concluded that Erebus was that Nephilim's name. And I guessed he was the main culprit for the big crack in Lightglen City.

"Erebus indeed only brought problems, but have you ever thought he is also our way out?" said Tania.

Yuffy turned to Tania.
"What do you mean?" she said with a pout.

"Since Erebus grew up in the human world. He could have had a child from a human. And that child was raised as a human, also alive and has offspring like humans," said Tania. Her eyes looked at me in seriousness.

"Is that possible?" I asked.
"Didn't you say that not all women can give birth to the Demon Lord's child?" I remembered she said Erebus and Lord Damon's powers were the same. Erebus should be also having trouble having a child like Lord Damon, right?

"It could have happened since Erebus was a Nephilim. He could seal his child's power with the angelic power within him and make it as if his child was an ordinary human. As long as a strong seal locked his child's power then his child could only live like an ordinary human without realizing his true identity. But with just a little bit of demonic or angelic power, everyone could see the difference. Since his strength will be increasing significantly compared to the humans who received that power,"explained Tania.

"So we just need to find him, right?" I concluded this long conversation.

"It's fine. Lilieth and Lord Damon have found him. It's just that... right now, he's too weak and still has to learn about so many things, so Lord Damon decided to keep his existence a secret to protect him from other Demon Lords. Besides ... He was raised as a human, not a demon, he has to adjust himself. Also, even though Lord Damon wants him to become a true demon lord as soon as possible. Since Lord Damon doesn't want that man to take the wrong path like his brother, he has to be patient. "

Somehow Emma and I felt relieved by her explanation. At least we knew we had hope. While Yuffy just realized something after hearing Tania's explanation.
"So ... That's the reason why--"

Before Yuffy finished her words, Tania interrupted her.
"Yes! That's the reason." Her eyes were fixed on Yuffy with a serious gaze and Yuffy immediately pressed her lips as if she was about to blurt out a forbidden secret. Then Tania turned to me.
"For the time being, we can't tell you where this demon is. The most important thing right now is to find the energy disturbance's origin. If the cracks go bad before this demon is ready to replace Lord Damon, then the demon will invade the human world and enslave them."

Tania's words reminded me of Myra's plan to enslave demons. Even though I was sure Lord Damon was strong enough to face her since I realized the drastic difference between demon and human powers but since Tania and Kitty said this had something to do with the human world, that plan could be related to this crack problem.
"I don't know if this could be a clue or not. But I do know something that might be related to the cracks."

"Tell us, what is it?" said Tania.

Then I told her everything I knew about Myra's plan to enslave the demons.
