The Incubus System Chapter 698. The Human World Is Mine

The darkness of the portal enveloped me as I made my way through the darkness. My legs moved in a hurry. At the same time, I telepathed my loyal servants.

‘Do you guys feel it?’ I said urgently. ‘Meet me in Lightglen City!’

My words were met with a worried inquiry from Ivy. ‘Do I need to send a message to the dark dimension?’ she asked, her voice laced with concern.

‘No need,’ I reassured her. ‘I'm sure Dad and the others already know.’ I knew that Lord Damon would be paying close attention to this crack. It was a vulnerable spot, one that would allow the demons to cross over into the human world if left unchecked.

But I also knew that Lord Damon was not in a good state to fix the crack himself. He had already spent his energy twice, and attempting to mend it again would only make things worse. That meant it was up to me to take care of it this time. Fortunately, I had brought Mrs. Clea on my contract. I was sure she could help me take care of the demon hunter association.

‘Just make sure Yuffy and Luna join us,’ I added, knowing that we would need all the help we could get. The scale of the attack we were facing was unprecedented, the worst in a thousand years. I knew that there would be casualties, and Yuffy's abilities as a gifted healer would be essential in saving as many lives as possible.

‘Master, can I join you this time?’ Foxy asked eagerly. It was clear that she thought my orders only applied to Maria and Ivy.

‘Of course,’ I clarified. ‘That command applies to all of you. And make sure to tell Celia to lock the door and not go anywhere. Who knows if there is another crack,’ I instructed, knowing that the demon hunters would be focused on Lightglen City and we couldn't afford any distractions. Good thing Celia had my Incubus’ Protection.

‘Okay,’ she replied.

I emerged from the portal and arrived at the top of the tallest building in Lightglen City, my previous position. Looking out across the skyline, I could see the sprawling metropolis stretching out before me, its buildings and streets illuminated by the flickering flames of battle.

My eyes were drawn to a huge crack that marred the fabric of reality itself. I realized the true extent of the danger that humans faced.  I took in the sheer scale of the crack. Instead of being vague and indistinct like most cracks, this one was clear and defined, as though a huge window had been smashed open to reveal the demon world beyond.

I could see the twisted, demonic landscape stretching out before me and feel the malevolent energy of the demon realm pulsing through the crack like a palpable force. Some of the demons poured through the crack, their eyes blazing with an unholy light as they charged toward the city. They were powerful and dangerous nonetheless. What I meant by 'some', of course about more than a hundred.

I knew the crack had opened somewhere in the wild territory. It was a harsh and unforgiving land, filled with deadly creatures and harsh terrain. Maybe somewhere similar to the Abyss but much weaker. But it was also the natural habitat of strong demons, and it seemed that they had adapted to survive in this place.

Quickly, I realized the true extent of the danger. These were the wild demons, untamed and uncontrolled. Well, it didn’t mean the civilized ones were better than them.

Inside the crack, I could see the demon generals fighting to hold back the tide of wild demons, their powerful skills and weapons blasting the invaders back into the demon world. And they held back more than a thousand of them, killing them, reducing them to a count of a hundred before they could get through. But for every demon they killed, two more seemed to take its place.

As I stood there, gazing out across the dark desert, I could see the demons that had come through the crack. They were unlike any demons I had ever seen before. Their levels were significantly higher than usual, ranging from around 30 to 50, with some even reaching a level of 60.

The city itself was in a state of chaos. Demons filled the streets, leaping from building to building with an otherworldly grace that left me in awe. They were everywhere, searching for human prey with bloodlust that made anyone’s skin crawl. I could see them darting in and out of buildings, their razor-sharp claws and teeth tearing through anything in their way. It was as if they were searching for something specific, something that they could only find in the human world. Their delicious dinner, the humans themselves.

Despite the overwhelming odds, my pets were fighting valiantly against the demonic horde. Their skills and training were on full display as they battled the demons, reducing their numbers and holding them back from entering the buildings.

Without hesitation, I opened my palm and used my skill.

“Devil Space,” I murmured under my breath, and in an instant, a black cube appeared in my hand and expanded, covering the entire area around the crack. A skill I had never used in the dark dimension. It was bigger than before and it should be enough to get rid of the weak humans on the battlefield.

I could feel the energy crackling through the air once my space covered the huge crack as if they clashed with each other, but I knew that I was in control. But I couldn't waste any time. I telepathed my partners, warning them about what had happened in Lightglen City. I told them everything, leaving no detail out. I needed them to be prepared for whatever was coming next.

Without waiting for their response, I teleported to the front of the crack, and the first thing I did was release my Demon Lord aura. I wanted those demons to know that the human world belonged to me.
