The Incubus System Chapter 368. I Don't Want to Lose You

"I'm going to the Dark dimension in two days, Celia," I repeated. I was sure this would surprise her. But ready or not, I decided to tell her since our time was too narrow. Those words were enough to change the cheerful atmosphere around us.

"That soon? But---" Before Celia could finish her words, Yuffy interrupted her.
"Did you meet the king?" she guessed.

"No, I only met Alfred," I replied.

"Alfred? You mean the Cursed Mountain's guardian?" asked Luna.

'So the mountain's name is Cursed Mountain.' Well, it fit its dreadful condition.
"Yes, it's him."

"Wait, does that mean you landed in Deadly Swamp?" guessed Maria. A trace of worry was evident in her tone.

"Are you okay? There are a lot of nasty demons there. They are even crazier than Sex Demons and can even make an incubus or a succubus beg for their life," added Ivy in the same worry.

'Wait... Is the Two Headed Swamp Demon that bad?' Well, indeed their level was higher than a Sex Demon, not to mention their huge number. I also remembered that those demons mentioned how they played with an incubus earlier. But I didn't think they would be worse than I thought.

"I've heard about it. A year ago, the imperial soldiers managed to save an incubus who accidentally got lost there. According to eyewitnesses, they found him in a pitiful condition. He suffered deep trauma after that. He didn't even want to have sex again and chose to eat normal food to fulfil his hunger," Luna shuddered.

It was enough to shock me.
'Wait, those demons managed to make an incubus not want to have sex anymore? Am I just lucky?'

"Are they managed to rape you?" said Yuffy. Her hands groped my body and her eyes examined it in detail.

But I caught her hands.
"Of course not. Besides, didn't you guys just do the Ritual with me?" I reminded her. If there was a wound on my body they should have noticed it from the start.

"Just let us check you a bit to make sure you're okay," Ivy said as she joined Yuffy to check on me.
"Who knows they managed to rape you, but you heal yourself with your Dark Healing skill," added Ivy in a much lower voice.

I was about to refuse it but Luna grabbed my hand and looked at me worriedly.
"Your Highness, the Incubus that the soldiers found was also able to heal himself. But he chose not to do it because of being tormented by those swamp demons."

"Are those demons that bad?" Celia asked. My generals' reaction made her and Foxy also worry about me despite my condition.

"Yes. No one wants to go there," Luna explained. She gritted her teeth either in horror or regret that she couldn't protect me.

"I knew it. I should have gone with you," said Maria regretfully.

Irritated by their worries, I removed their hands from my body.
"I told you I'm fine. I killed them all. None of them managed to touch me," I said in a firm tone. And it managed to silence them.
"Now, I want you to listen to my explanation," I continued.

We moved to the sofa and continued our conversation there. Mostly dominated by my explanation of what happened there.

"So His Majesty will contact us?" said Yuffy as soon as I finished with my explanation. After what they said about Deadly Swamp, I felt so relieved that I didn't have to go to that swamp anymore. At least I didn't have to bring Ivy and the others through that horrible place.

"Yes, just wait for it," I replied.

"I don't understand why His Majesty suddenly opened our access," Luna said with a frown.

"I think it's because His Highness has found his way to the Dark dimension. So The King decided to let him join the battle," Ivy guessed. I also thought the same thing as her.

"Did Alfred say what happened?" Maria asked once again out of curiosity.

I shook my head from side to side.
"He said Lord Damon would tell me himself," I said. I was also very curious about that.

"I'm sure that means the situation is quite severe. Otherwise, the king wouldn't do it," guessed Yuffy. It wasn't a groundless guess, considering how the cracks' movement changed drastically.

A tug from the end of my sweater turned my attention to Celia, who had been silent for a while.
"Brother, if you go... What about me?" she said in a gloomy tone. It was clear she wasn't ready to let me go.

I grabbed her hand and rubbed it gently.
"I'll talk to Camila and Olivia about this. I think you should stay with them for a while." I couldn't let Celia stay here alone. Also instead of staying with Mia, I chose Camila because I didn't want Kingdom of Serpent Rock to put their eyes on Celia either.
"As for the rest, we can say we will be spending our holiday at our acquaintance's house," I added. But then, I remembered something important.
"Ah, but maybe I won't be able to attend your graduation."

"... It's fine. They postpone it because of recent incidents," said Celia without enthusiasm.

"Master, what about the human world?" Foxy asked. She was a little quieter than usual since she came from a rural area. So she was kinda out of the place.

"Don't worry. The demon hunters will take care of it. With their new secret weapon and strong people like Nathan, they should be able to handle it." Although I couldn't trust them 100%, their early arrival proved how they had improved in such a short time.
"I'm also planning to say a few things to Mrs Clea as a warning."

"I see..." Foxy replied.

"I think that's enough for now," I decided to end our conversation since it was past midnight now. I stood up from my seat and turned to Ivy and Maria.
"C'mon. I will send you back."

I was about to open my portal. But, unexpectedly, Celia hugged my waist tightly and buried her face in my back.
"Brother, I don't want to lose you..." she whispered.

Slowly I lowered my hand and held hers.
"You won't lose me, Celia. I promise..."
