The Incubus System Chapter 462. The Demon King's Absence IV

Luckily, despite my annoying attitude, he took my advice and decided to rest longer. Well, he indeed looked annoyed, but he couldn't do anything either. I knew this from Yuffy.

At dinner, I could see he was much better. Still, he hadn't fully recovered yet. So I promised to bring some reports to his bedroom tomorrow. Especially those personal reports.

Even though it would disturb his rest, at least it would lessen his worries. Besides, he didn't say a word about what I should do or how I should respond to the report. He only sulked during dinner. Well, I bet he was still mad at me after I bullied him with my Telekinesis. Unfortunately, he didn't say his approval to me either.

Another day had passed. The next morning, when I was about to sit down at Lord Damon's office and start my work as usual, he suddenly appeared in front of the desk. His usual suit already covered his body and his arrogant expression was on his face.

He folded his arms in front of his chest.
"Get out of my seat," he ordered in an annoying tone.

And I replied with rolled my eyes to the side. A mocking smile on my lips.
"Go to sleep, old stubborn demon," I scoffed.

"Does my absence make you cocky, huh?" he hissed.

I shrugged nonchalantly and turned my gaze elsewhere, totally ignoring his words.

- Bang!

His palms landed on the desk hard as he leaned his body against it. It even made the table vibrate.

That sound was enough to make me turn back to him. Our eyes met each other fiercely.

"I said get out of my seat," he ordered in a displeased tone.

I took a deep breath.
"Stop being stubborn. You just recovered. Take a rest a few days until you are truly healed," I warned him.

But he answered me with something else.
"I see... So you underestimated my regeneration ability. Should we settle it in the battle arena?" he challenged in a displeased tone.

I gave him a flat stare.
"That's not what I meant. I'm not---" Before I could finish my sentence, he used his Teleportation skill. A second later we were at the rooftop battle arena.

Another exhale came out of my mouth and a frown appeared on my forehead.
"Really?" I asked in annoyance.

He raised his chin and looked down at me.
"Why not? Are you underestimating me?" he said in his usual arrogant tone.

Rather than the demon king, Lord of Pride was more suited to him.
"Dad, you just recovered. I don't want to fight you," I warned him.

"Thank you for your concern. But I don't like when other people look down on me." He smirked confidently.
"Including my own son." Without further ado, he waved his hand. His invisible force stormed on me.

"Seriously?!" I half shouted in annoyance and stretched my hand forward.
'Shadow Barrier.'

A transparent barrier appeared in front of me.

[A barrier has been formed.]

I thought that was enough to hold him back. But I was wrong... My barrier could only hold his invisible force for a few seconds before it shattered into pieces.

[Your barrier has been destroyed!]

Although it was enough to take me by surprise, I simply teleported myself to the other side of the arena to dodge. Since I didn't intend to fight him in the first place, I didn't use any of my supportive skills.

"Not bad," I said with an annoying smirk. This time I was the one who used my Telekinesis. Since I couldn't check his status, I wanted to make sure he could fend off his opponent's attacks.

He simply countered it with his Telekinesis. Two invisible forces collided in our midst. The strong wind ruffled our hair, made our overcoat wave around wildly, and pushed our bodies.

But instead of retreating, as if on cue we pulled out our Demonic Spikes and threw them.

A series of booming sounds echoed as our lances countered against each other. It was enough to make the trees around the battle arena sway to and fro. I could even see Kir desperately clinging to one of the branches.

I felt like I was fighting my own doppelganger in this battle. Okay, I meant he fought his own doppelganger since I was his double.

The impact was over, but we were still standing there and staring at each other. After making sure his condition was much better than yesterday, I folded my arms in front of my chest and raised my chin a little. An annoying smile on my lips. It was his trademark pose.
"Congratulations, you've passed my test," I imitated when he tested me.

He cringed in annoyance and gave me a nasty look.
"Did you just copy me?" he complained.

I grinned innocently.
"Like father, like son," I said in a casual tone.

He rolled his eyes to the side.
"Ugh... You sound like Sarael." His complaint sounded like a grunt.

"Since you've recovered. I will carry out my plan today," I continued. Judging by his movement and his power, he should be fine. After all, with his stubbornness, I was not sure I could push him any more than this.

I used my Camouflage skill again and turned to Letos' assistant. But instead of a suit, I used casual clothes. A tight half-transparent t-shirt that showed my perfect body shape, jeans, sneakers, and a pair of sunglasses. Even though it made me look like a pervert, it was just plain clothes for Licheri.

I flexed my leg backward slightly and put my right hand on my left chest politely.
"If there's nothing to talk about anymore. I will excuse myself, Your Majesty. I have a date with a sexy succubus," I said in an annoying tone. Then without waiting for his answer, I used my Teleportation skill.
