The Incubus System Chapter 260 - Another Stalker

The Incubus System Chapter 260. Another Stalker

'So... you guys can't join us for today's night hunt?' I said as I walked down the sidewalk to my house accompanied by the clear afternoon sky. Instead of opening my portal directly to my room, I opened my portal to Ironshade Town Station. Why? Because I guessed, it was Mrs Clea who sent Tiffany. It could be that she just wanted to fulfil my invitation. Either way, I'd rather anticipate the worst than be overly confident, especially since I still wanted a bit of my peaceful normal life. After all, a little walk wouldn't hurt . So better safe than sorry.

'I'm sorry, Ethan. Since my suspension has just ended, I have to undergo a re-examination at the headquarters since they want to make sure I'm not under any demons' influence,' replied Emma in a disappointed tone.

Followed by Olivia's voice.

'I also need to help my mom take care of Nightbough. corp. My dad left a lot of unfinished things and neither of us knew about it. Even though Ivy could imitate my dad well, she still needed a lot of knowledge to manage paperwork and company managent. Moreover, Nightbough. Corp has many subsidiaries and affiliates. But... ' She paused for a mont and I could catch the confusion in her tone.

'You know--- Despite her appearance, I'm really shocked with Ivy's intelligence. She can learn many things easily, especially those related to technology. I think she can replace my dad without anyone noticing it. All we need to do is find out what my dad has been hiding from us.'

'Okay. Just tell if you guys need help,' I said.

But they just didn't answer .

'Is there sothing wrong?' I asked again.

'Ethan, instead of worrying about us you should worry more about yourself. I an... I know what happened last night wasn't easy for you, yet you act as if nothing happened,' Emma said worriedly.

'Emma is right. I thought you were going to have a ntal breakdown yesterday, yet you didn't. Don't be too hard on yourself, Ethan. Please rember, all of us aren't weak won. We are your source of power, not soone who will drag you down,' Olivia said sincerely.

A smile appeared on my lips. I didn't care if people thought I was weird for smiling for no reason. Even though they said this through Telepathy, I could clearly feel their sincerity.

' Thank you...'

But then I realized sothing or soone was stalking from behind the high bush across the street. I looked at the stalker with the corner of my eyes without turning my head at her and sighed after I realized who she was from the status above her head. Elenna. A tired breath escaped my mouth.

'I think I just got a new stalker,' I said. I saw her enter Myra's mansion last night, but I managed to escape before she could see clearly. And based on Maria's report, I knew she saw . Even if it was only a glimpse, it was enough to make her chase around again. That's why she was here.

To be honest, I wanted to open my portal while we were still in the lab last night. Unfortunately, I couldn't. To convince the demon hunters that their opponents were real demons, Yuffy had to watch them from close range. So when their attacks hit her Specters, she could dismiss them imdiately, as if the demon hunters had defeated them and it required perfect timing. And since I was the only one with manipulation skills left there, I had to make sure that our surroundings were safe. Sadly, Elenna caught a glimpse of when we moved to another room.

'Who?' they said at the sa ti.

'That reporter. I need to go now, I have to deal with her.' I almost arrived at my house, but I didn't want her to follow to my house and make the 'I accidentally t you, so can I co to your house?' scene. That's why I decided to lure her elsewhere and use my Mind Corruption on her. As I expected she followed as she hid herself with things around.

'Just be careful,' they said.

'Okay.'

[You have disconnected with Emma and Olivia.]

"Ethan!" A woman's voice made stop, but I knew it wasn't Elenna's voice. I turned to Mrs Clea who was standing in front of her house and waved her hand at .

"Do you mind accompanying Alan to play for a while?" she said.

I frowned since she had never asked my help for sothing like this before.

'Is this a trap?' As I approached, I used my observation skill on her. But I only found worried and honest in her emotional status.

"I don't mind. But I can't stay too long. Is it okay?" I replied.

"It's fine. It won't be long," she said with a smile. Even if it was only for a mont, I caught Mrs Clea glancing at Elenna, indicating she was also aware of that reporter's presence or that's the reason she called .

We entered her house and my hand put my umbrella at the entrance. Unlike when I sneaked here using Foxy's body, all those strange lasers were no longer at the entrance.

"Yay! Yay! Yay!" Alan's happy voice greeted my ears as soon as I entered the place, accompanied by the discordant sound of a Xylophone. I turned to where the sound was coming from and saw Alan thumping his Xylophone toy happily. Even though I knew he was just pretending, I could say his acting was amazingly good. I also looked around to make sure this wasn't a trap and I didn't find anything suspicious there.

"Alan, look who's coming," said Mrs Clea.

As soon as Alan saw , he stopped playing and ran towards .

"Brother! Do you co to play with ?" he said in excitent. He opened his arms up, asking to carry him.

Without hesitation, I picked him up.

"Yes, are you ready to play?" I said with a childish grin. I didn't mind playing along with them since from Mrs Clea's status, I knew she ant no harm to .

"I will leave you with him for a while, Ethan. I need to make an important call, but Alan keeps screaming."

"Okay." After that answer, she went to another room. While I accompanied Alan to play, or rather pretended to accompany him.

Five minutes later. I chased around Alan and laughed together, when I suddenly heard the police siren. I stopped in my tracks and turned to the window. My feet moved there to check it out. My hand brushed aside the curtain, my eyes glued to the police car parked across the street. The two policen were seen arguing with Elenna.

'Did Mrs Clea know that Elenna was following ?' I thought. And since she didn't want Elenna to know my house, she lured here.

A couple tugging on my sweater took my eyes off them.

"Brother, you don't want to play anymore?" Alan whined in disappointnt.

"Look, Alan. There's sothing interesting out there." I picked him up and made him look out the window.

"It's a police car," I said in a nursery rhy tone. anwhile, my eyes watched what was happening. I could only guess that the police ca because of Mrs Clea's report. Since there was no way the police could co this fast just for a small report like this, I bet she used her demon hunter chairwoman status for this.

After arguing for a while, finally, the policen took Elenna by force.

'At least this makes everything easier for ,' I thought. My hand closed the curtain and I accompanied Alan to play again.

Shortly after, Mrs Clea ca over to us.

"Thank you for helping , Ethan."

"No problem," I replied. My hand pointed to the window.

"Those cops, did they co because of your report?" I asked straight to the point. What she did was too obvious.

"Yeah. That woman has been stalking us since noon. I thought she had bad intentions towards us. That's why I decided to report her to the police," she replied in a calm tone. It seed she had already prepared everything but she just wanted to make sure the person Elenna was following was . So I could say my decision to open my portal at the station was the right one. Since both of them were waiting for , they would notice sothing was wrong with if they found suddenly showing up at my house without passing them by.

'Great! One of my stalkers waited for in the rain this morning, the other waited for for hours.' And I could guess Mrs Clea had realized this has to do with last night's incident. So there was a big possibility she was the one who sent Tiffany.

"You know, that woman also followed to college for a ridiculous reason yesterday." Since she started to suspect , I decided to give her my alibi. Even though I wanted to read Mrs Clea's mind with my Mind Corruption, I couldn't because of Alan. That skill could only be perford on a single target and had a ti delay when the victim's mory entered my head. Judging from how Alan protected Mrs Clea from the Imps, I guessed Alan had the sa intelligence as human's and understood if sothing was wrong with her. He could have sothing he could use to send an ergency signal to headquarters. That's why I decided to undo my intention.

"Really?"

"She said she saw at the Cretunt Bridge incident. Although I already said I was on my way to Larry's place when that accident happened." Diamond was the star of that heroic event, I was not sure anyone would rember that I was there.

She chuckled.

"That's stupid."

"You know what's more stupid? She thinks I'm a demon hunter," I said with the sa chuckle as her.

Her eyes widened in surprise.

"What? That's crazy! How did she co to that conclusion?"

"I don't know. Maybe she's too obsessed with the demon hunters," I said with a shrug. I ca to that conclusion after I saw Elenna's persistence at the Nighthallow City's Station. I was sure Mrs Clea should be aware of that too.

"What a weird woman!"

"Well, since she's gone you should be safe by now."

"Thanks for your help, Ethan."

After Alan and Mrs Clea said goodbye to , I returned to my house.
