Chapter 227 - The Demon Lords Grudge
Chapter 227: The Demon Lord\'s Grudge
Meanwhile, the red moon in the dark dimension\'s sky was getting brighter. That light illuminated the bustling Eternal Night City, the Demon Kingdom\'s capital. On the 99th floor of the Illusion Night Castle or rather the first tower since the stone castle had been transformed into twin modern towers, a man with a mid 30\'s face sat behind his large desk in the middle of his luxurious office. His handsome cold face was clear although his age was more than 1500 years. His hair was dark blue with a bang that covered one of his eyes slightly. An expensive black suit covered his body. His back rested on his big office chair. His elbow was on the chair handle and his chin rested on the back of his hand. A smirk adorned his face as his sharp eyes stared at his dark aura that swirled beside the monitor on his desk. That dark aura showed him what the One Eye Demon saw right now, it was the demon who was spying on Damian.
"Not bad, Damian." He was quite satisfied after he watched how Damian was able to overcome one of The Incubus Lord\'s assistants and his army alone. It was fast progress considering Damian just turned into an Incubus for one week, eight days to be precise. Well, Damian was his son and he had Erebus\' Nephilim blood in him, so he should be able to do this far despite his level was still low. Unfortunately, even with Damian\'s struggle and that crack, Lord Damon couldn\'t do anything but watched him remotely. He had to be patient since he waited for someone important to reveal himself, The Incubus Lord, Letos Borenoth. Lord Damon had suspected for a long time that he was involved in the demon lords\' great rebellion. Besides, Lord Damon had caught Letos\' hatred for him or rather Damian especially after discovering his son was an Incubus. He knew the reason for his hatred was because he was afraid that Damian would take his throne and territory over the Lust demon kind. Moreover, many of the Succubus did not like how Letos ruled over them for a long time. An Incubus who was born from the strongest demon lord would certainly be a new hope for them, therefore if there was someone who wanted Damian to die, that person would be Letos. That\'s why Lord Damon guessed Letos was that rebellion\'s mastermind. Unfortunately, he didn\'t have any evidence of Letos\' involvement since he didn\'t attack him directly like the other demon lords and lust demons were the top five population in the dark dimension. Killing their leader for no reason was the same as waging a great war. Even if the Incubus Lord\'s assistant had mentioned his name, it was not solid evidence and he could deny it easily by a single sentence. Therefore Lord Damon waited for his appearance to catch him red-handed and finish him off on the spot.
The knocking sounds followed by the sound of the door opening and the click-clack sound of the heels stepping on the floor echoed in his office. The footsteps stopped in front of him.
"Worried about your son, My Lord?" a sweet woman\'s voice came from where the footsteps had stopped.
"Aren\'t you more worried about him than I am? I know you sent Kitty just to warn him a few days ago." Then a satisfied smirk appeared on his lips as his eyes watched Damian who was fighting fiercely against that many demons. Even though Damian looked a bit panicked, judging by his sharpness, Lord Damon was sure that Damian would win the battle soon.
"But I must say, I am satisfied with his progress. You have fed him well." Of course, he meant when Lilieth had sex with Damian. Although it was unnatural for humans, it was a common thing especially for Succubus and Incubus since it was just like a mother breastfeeding her child.
"Thank you for your compliment, My Lord."
"Then what do you want to report?" he asked.
"My Lord, Letos won\'t make his appearance this time. But he sent his first wife to help his assistant," said Lilieth.
Despite his failed bait, Lord Damon remained calm. Although Letos looked as if he was thinking with his dick, he was actually a careful demon especially when he took his action. Even Lord Damon couldn\'t find any trace of his involvement in the demon lords\' rebellion. Lord Damon waved his hand and the dark aura in front of him disappeared, revealing his beloved wife, Lilieth who was wearing a purple dress with a high slit that showed her beautiful leg up to her thigh, who was standing in front of him.
"I heard his first wife is his favourite." This time an evil smirk graced his face. He had been holding his grudge for too long, so he didn\'t want to let this opportunity slip away.
Lilieth quickly caught his intention. Her evil smirk also appeared on her lips.
"You mean..."
"Yes... I want to see what he will do if I drag his beloved woman in front of his eyes." Lord Damon got up from his chair and snapped his fingers. His coat flew over him and covered his shoulders.
"Open the portal, we\'ll join the party."

Ethan\'s PoV
My eyes stared at that dying Incubus. I just needed one critical hit to end his life. I ignored my pain and my bleeding status, my hand reached out to him as I used my Demonic Spike and my black lances launched to him. Still, even though he was seriously injured, he was able to dodge my attacks and use his Dark Healing skill. But I already predicted it, my goal was to use my black lances for diversion, while I approached him and looked for opportunities to attack him at close range. After all, since his Dark Healing skill was still level 1, he wouldn\'t recover that fast.
"What?!" He turned around in shock when I was already right behind him. But it was too late, I had raised my claw and prepared to stab him.
[Critical Hit!]
[You have hit an Incubus for 672 HP. ]
He spat out a massive amount of blood as he glanced at his chest which had been pierced by my claw. Mercilessly, I swung my other claw at his neck, cutting his head off.
[Critical Hit!]
[You have hit an Incubus for 682 HP. ]
Then he turned to ashes.
Unfortunately, my battle wasn\'t over yet. I swiftly turned around and glided at Emma and Olivia who were fighting off a couple of the red demons. Judging from their pale faces and panting breath, it was clear they were already at their limit. Meanwhile, Camila and Pearl ducked down and hugged the maid not far behind them. The dark force flowing in the cable had stopped, which meant they had managed to stop the device. As I glided, my hand swiftly moved to push another wave of demons that almost came out of the crack. There were only less than 50 demons now.
[Critical Hit!]
[You have hit a Sex Demon for 672 HP. ]
[You have hit a Sex Demon for 668 HP. ]
I crushed the last two demons\' heads in front of them and turned those demons to ashes.
"Back off and protect the others," I said. Without waiting for their answer, I approached the crack quickly. I was about to use my skill but three demons jumped at me. With smooth movements, I pierced two of them with my claws right in their chest.
[Critical Hit!]
[You have hit a Sex Demon for 672 HP. ]
[You have hit a Sex Demon for 680 HP. ]
And caught the neck of the other. I raised my hand showing the red demon struggling desperately to his remaining friends who marched towards the crack.
"You have chosen the wrong opponent!" I said as I tightened my choke. My eyes looked at those demons filled with intimidation and my black lances reappeared before me.
"Kkk----kkkk---kkkk" That demon\'s broken shriek accompanied by the cracking sound from his neck bone. His friends\' screams of pain followed as my black lances rained them down.
[Critical Hit!]
[You have hit a Sex Demon for 680 HP. ]
[Critical Hit!]
[You have shot a Sex Demon for 357 HP. ] X20*
After all of them turned to ashes, I stretched out my hand and used my Dark Energy skill to seal the crack.
[The crack has closed.]
[You have used up 42 DP.]
*Ting!*
[All enemies have been defeated!]
[Congratulations! You have completed your daily quest!]
[Congratulations! You just killed a Demon Lord\'s Assistant!]
[Level Up!] [Level Up!] [Level Up!] [Level Up!]
[You are now Level 37.]
[You have 20 unused stat points.]
[You have 4 unused skill points.]
[You have earned a new title: Ruler. This is my territory! WIS + 5 VIT + 5 ]
[You have earned a new title: Abattoir. Beat more than 500 demons in a row. INT +3 STR+10]
\'Sweet!\' I thought with a grin as I panted in tiredness and pain. I was quite satisfied with my progress even though the fight was draining my DP and I was sure I didn\'t have much DP left now. Luckily, my Mind Corruption Skill only required 2 DP. But I knew I had to face another thing.
"Damian..." Camila\'s voice came from behind me.
My grin faded. I turned to the origin of the voice and saw everyone except Emma staring at me with mixed emotions. Confusion. Fear. Relief and disappointment. But one thing for sure, from their gaze, they demanded an explanation from me.
