The Incubus System Chapter 559. Caught in The Act II

Upon my weird expression, he glanced at me and narrowed his eyes. A frown on his forehead.

"What do you want to say? Spit it out," he said curtly.

I replied with an awkward smile.

“Ehm,” I cleared my throat nervously and tried to regain my composure. I didn't want to bring up the demon and human morality stuff since I knew where it would end up and how bad he would nag me.

I knew who I was, but getting rid of something I had grown up with wasn't that easy. So I still experienced one or two culture shocks.

"Nothing. I just want to ask about your work. You've been out for a few days and I'm not with you in the capital. Has everything been handled properly?” I asked, trying to turn our conversation around. I knew Lilieth had handled his work, but I desperately needed another topic of conversation.

“I have Lilieth with me,” he said without taking his eyes off me. “She has handled my work well. So rather than me, those questions are more suitable for you," he returned my question with another.

His gaze shifted to Nefaris who was still fast asleep on the bed.

"Moreover, I don't believe 'that thing' can help you. She is hopeless and useless," he added sarcastically. Yeah, he emphasized the 'that thing' words.

Once again I held my cringe. 'That thing?' I thought. Somehow I couldn't understand why those two death demons couldn't get along with each other when I found a lot of similarities between them.

Rather than me, Nefaris' voice that came from behind me answered him.

“Hey, I heard that,” she complained.

When I looked back, she was already sitting down and covered her naked body with her usual red dress.

"I beg your pardon, 'Your Majesty'. But I'm more useful than you think. I helped your son to take care of a lot of things and stabilize his authority over this city," she said in a sarcastic tone. A mocking smirk appeared on her lips. “Not like someone who just fainted and only opened his eyes after everything was done.” A scoff came out of her mouth. “So useless,” she mocked him mercilessly.

I exhaled a long tired breath.

'Here we go again,' I thought. I was just about to stop them since I wasn't interested in a long argument, but another voice caught our attention.

“Seriously, why are you guys so noisy today?” Licheri complained, yawning. At the same time, the drawer of my desk opened by itself before he jumped out of it.

From his half-opened eyes, it was clear he was still sleepy. Licheri wasn't usually bothered by small things like arguments so I was guessing he woke up because of Lord Damon's presence since he once told me that he could detect a demon lord's presence even though the demon lord was able to cover his/her demonic aura like me.

As if on cue, we turned to him at the same time.

“Licheri, do you want to meet my dad?” I greeted him. It was my chance to divert the conversation and stop their argument.

While Lord Damon greeted him in another way. Without a word, he teleported near my desk and stared at that white round creature in intimidation, like a lion staring at an innocent bunny cub.

"Hie!" Licheri squeaked due to Lord Damon's intense intimidation. His surprise was evident on his face. His half-open eyes snapped open in an instant.

Then, without a warning, Lord Damon pinched Licheri's cheek with both fingers and lifted that white creature in disgust.

A frown appeared on Lord Damon's forehead. His eyes fixed on Licheri were filled with clear confusion.

“What is this white jelly creature? Some kind of mutant semen?” he asked with a cringe. His disparage was clear from the tone of his voice. He turned to me without removing the strange expression on his face.

"Have you ejaculated that much till you managed to create this monstrous creature?" he gave me a random guess.

Meanwhile, Licheri struggled, trying to free himself from Lord Damon's pinch. Her chubby cheek turned red as he swung around.

"Let me go you cruel demon!" he whined. He looked like a huge marshmallow hanging in Lord Damon's hand.

A weird expression appeared on my face, either because I held my cringe or because I felt sorry for Licheri.

"Dad, that's Licheri. This city's core. This place's Demon's Reign," I explained, pointing at Licheri.

He returned his gaze to Licheri and brought that creature closer to his face.

“This little creature?” he said in disbelief.

“Yes,” I clarified.

He narrowed his eyes and observed Licheri in detail.

"Hey, put me down. Show some respect. I know you are the king but I'm this place's core!” yelled Licheri in annoyance. His futile struggle only made his body sway back and forth.

"Are you sure he's not some kind of mutated semen?" Lord Damon made sure once again.

"My semen can't mutate," I replied. An awkward yet weird smile on my lips.

Feeling that his efforts were in vain and realizing that Lord Damon would not let him go anytime soon, Licheri stopped struggling and pouted.

"You are annoying," he protested.

Without further ado, Licheri opened his mouth and bit Lord Damon's finger.

It wasn't fatal, but enough to make Lord Damon frown.

“You piece of shit!” Lord Damon shouted in anger. He threw Licheri at the nearby wall but before Licheri landed, an invisible force held his body and caught him in the mid-air.

Still in the mid-air, nonchalantly, Licheri stuck his tongue to tease him. It was enough to trigger Lord Damon.

In a blink of an eye, Lord Damon stormed at him, intending to attack him again. This time, it was for real.

But I teleported in front of them and used my skill.

“Stop it! both of you!” I shouted.

I used my Telekinesis to stop Lord Damon with my right hand and covered Licheri's face with my left palm. As I thought, my Telekinesis was enough to stop Lord Damon since he had just recovered. While Licheri only let out another squeak.

My reckless movement surprised Nefaris and Lilieth.

"Oh my..." Lilieth muttered in shock.

Beside her, Nefaris covered her mouth with the same shocked expression.

"Can we drop this stupid quarrel and talk about something else?" I asked in a serious tone. This was my office and I was sure their fight would destroy this room if I let them do as they please.
