The Incubus System Chapter 303. The Incubus Between Business, Politics and Wars.

"Oh, Damian is awake!" Pearl announced.

Some of them quickly approached me. While the others moved their hands faster to finish their makeup.

"Morning, handsome," Camila said followed by a kiss on my cheek. A simple casual dress had covered her body.

"Morning," I replied.

While Emma greeted me with something else.
"Did you sleep well? You look a little--- Confused..." she immediately noticed something different about me.

"Yeah, something is bugging me," I said with a faint smile.

"Is there anything we can do to help you?" asked Olivia who had just arrived and plopped herself by my side.

"Tell us," said Celia who was sitting on the other side of me.

I shook my head from side to side.
"I can't. It's a bit complicated. Moreover..." I shifted my gaze to Mia who was brushing her hair near the bed.
"It's related to her kingdom," I said in a lower voice, making sure she didn't hear me.

"Is that related to her kingdom's main commodity?" Pearl guessed. Of course, she meant the vaccine.

I nodded.
"I have to handle this with caution." If that crystal was the main reason why her kingdom was able to produce that vaccine, then her kingdom would face financial difficulties if I released that angel from the crystal. Hundreds of thousands of people and their governments would be affected. Moreover, Pearl had said it... That was her kingdom's main commodity. So if I didn't handle this with caution, I could destroy that kingdom and be responsible for the chaos that would happen.

Besides, I didn't know what Mia would think about this since her family kept this from her. But her position was more complicated than my other partners. This was not only related to our feelings or as simple as whether she wanted to accept my identity as a demon or not, but also her kingdom's interests, her people. Even though her love meter had met the requirements, I was also not sure she would accept my contract and become my loyal partner either. I was sure she realized as a crown princess she shouldn't be under anyone's control and her loyalty should only be given to her own kingdom.

Diamond took a deep breath.
"I know this is going to be complicated. A royalty's love story is never easy."

"True," Pearl followed.

"I will think of a way out..." I muttered. But then I shifted my gaze at Diamond and Pearl with a frown.
"Wait a second. Aren't you two also royalties?" I said. I knew their position wasn't as high as Mia's, but I knew they had a pretty high position considering how Pearl greeted Mia at the Sea Devil Club for the first time.

"The Kraken's rules aren't as strict as her kingdom and we have less drama in our aristocracy nor our politics. We are rare hybrid-beasts so our people are less. Many of us go out of the island to build our own companies in other countries. so... We can simply do what we want as long as it doesn't bring a disgrace to the Krakens," Pearl said with a shrug.

"Ah, I see... So simply the Krakens are trying to control the global economy rather than concentrating on their own internal affairs," I said in a joking tone.

Despite my tone, Pearl and Diamond were silent. Their expression showed that my joke was right.

"Are you serious?" said Camila in surprise. Emma, Olivia and Celia showed the same expression.

"Not as greedy as controlling the global economy, but we are aware of our wealth and our strength. So rather than stay on an island, the Kraken decided to expand our influence to other countries. In our case, we also want to find our man", said Diamond. And I had to admit, it was a good decision since their skill and their tentacles supported them to do so. Moreover, by spreading and establishing companies in several countries, except reducing the competition between them, it could spread the Kraken's influence quickly, not to mention the profit they would get. It hit two birds with one stone.

After a moment of silence, Camila asked again.
"Then may I know which sector you are interested in? Apart from education, of course," she asked in a much calm tone. Her eyes turned serious.

"Are you afraid that we will become your competitors?" asked Diamond straight to the point.

"I prefer a friend over a competitor. So depending on your answer, maybe we can work together to expand our business," Camila said with a smile.

"You are really smart, Camila. How about we talk about this after lunch?" said Diamond with the same smile.

"With pleasure."

Meanwhile, Emma turned to Pearl.
"I hope our cooperation will go well." Of course, what she meant was Pearl's bracelet.

"Don't worry. I will fulfil the agreement," Pearl replied.

At the same time, Celia looked at them in amazement. She tilted her head closer to mine.
"Brother... How did you meet so many important people like this?" she whispered in curiosity.

"Fate? Maybe?" I said doubtfully. I was not sure about that either. All I knew was, my change was the main trigger why they were attracted to me. But for sure, I was surprised that I could have powerful partners like them. Not in the strength category, but in wealth and network, two important elements in this modern era.

"What are you guys talking about?" Mia finally joined us, as did my servants.

"As usual, business stuff," Pearl replied in a casual tone.

"What kind of business?" Mia asked curiously.

"Any kind. As long as it is legal and profitable," said Camila.

"Do you mind if I join you?" Mia said.

"We don't mind," said Diamond.

"Since you are going to talk about business, I will excuse myself," I said as I stood up from my seat.

"If you're not interested, we can talk about something else," Mia said.

"I need to talk to Ivy and the others. So please take your time." This was my chance to discuss what I found and ask some important questions to my servants.

"Can I join you?" Celia also stood up from her sofa.
"I don't think I can understand their conversation," said Celia, blushing in embarrassment.

"Of course." Well, they were talking about international scale's business, I was not sure Celia could keep up. Besides, Celia should know about this angel since it also had something to do with her angelic seal.

"If you need a private room, you can use one of the playrooms. The key is on the bedside table," Pearl said. I bet she quickly realized that I wanted to discuss something related to the demon world with my servants.
"Just remember. Our lunch will start in 20 minutes in the previous dining room," Pearl added.

"Got it."
