The Incubus System Chapter 527. Empty Formality
After that day, everything went according to what we predicted. The three demon lords began to launch their attacks directly at Letos. Even though they didn't do all of it openly, we got the news from spies. We also knew so from the TV, but they identified it as an anomaly and accused the culprit was the sa demon as the other cities' attacker.
Well, that accusation was not unfounded since what they did was mostly the sa as what I did before. Like trying to break through the city hall or Letos' mansion to steal important docunts, wreak havoc in so crowded places or steal his treasure. Well, I was sure the last one was Zatan's idea.
All of them were similar, so the other demon lords did that to cover their tracks and avoid public accusations about the war that could have happened between them. In this modern era, even a demon lord would avoid open war since it would hurt their territory economically. Of course, unless they didn't have a choice or in an ergency case like what happened a few years ago when Lord Damon killed several demon lords. Other, rather than open warfare, a classic duel was preferable.
Still, it didn't an the demon lords would use a duel whenever they had problems with others. That could be said as their last resort since resolving the problem through the duel ant that both demon lords agreed that if the lord died, his/her kin must not avenge their lord's death for any reason.
Those attacks lowered the lust demon kind's trust in Letos, especially since all of it happened after Lilieth left. And as usual, instead of being handled by them, Letos instead chose to use a press conference to appease all his people and secure his reputation. While he gave the real job to his assistants.
Well, even if he knew it, it wasn't like he could open things up bluntly since those three demon lords were his alliance. It was kinda funny when I saw his face that got paler every ti he appeared on TV and I enjoyed it.
On the other hand, for the cover-up, Lilieth had offered to help Letos handle it. But of course, Letos refused since he didn't want Lilieth to interfere in his territory again. And since Lilieth said it openly, Letos also had to reject it publicly.
Like pouring gasoline on a fire, after that statent, the attacks beca even more intense. As a result, the lust demon kind's trust kept decreasing drastically. So even started an online protest campaign since they didn't have the guts to do it openly. They thought Letos should get Lilieth's help to settle this matter quickly.
Plus a fake rumor that said that Lilieth left because Letos had promised to fix everything. In just a week, Licheri's situation was getting hotter. The lust demons' dissatisfaction was rising. What I was waiting for was their final showdown. And I would get it soon. Letos decided to hold a eting with the other demon lords. Well, forcing them to be precise since none of them wanted it.

The Demon Lords' PoV
It was noon. The red moon shone brightly yet it was in contrast to the demon lords' moods. They were gathered in an empty field in the wild territory. Yes, they chose this place since things could turn bad quickly. Letos didn't want to enter their territory since he realized all the attacks were their doing. But he also realized it was all due to a misunderstanding.
Therefore, before this eting, he tried to explain to them. But every ti he called them, none of them accepted his call. Their assistants simply said their lords were busy. It took more than a week for Letos just to get them to agree to et him. They chose a place in the middle of nowhere since all of them wanted to settle all these misunderstandings 'quickly'. Which ant this eting could turn from bad to the worst.
While the others also didn't want to enter his territory since they considered him a traitor. So a no-man's field in the unclaid territory was their best choice. There were no towns, villages, or buildings in that place. Most importantly that place was not Lord Damon's territory. So the king shouldn't be able to detect them.
While the place was considered quite safe, the trip was definitely not sothing fun. Other wild demons detected them as intruders and continued to attack them. They were nurous and attacked in groups. So of them were quite huge and others moved quickly.
Since their cars couldn't just pass through those demons, they had no other choice but to kill those demons. Luckily, with their power, all of them were not a problem for them. The only problem was the place itself.
Except for the bad road, their destination was an empty open field with barren black soil. There weren't any trees or anything there. They even had to bring their own table and seats. There were no servants that could serve Syntyche. There were no jewelry and luxurious items that Zatan could see. Or a lot of food for Beel. But luckily Beel had his ice cream truck. It brought enough ice cream to make him stay sane.
After the guards put down the table and chairs, the four demon lords got out of their cars surrounding the furniture. The rest of the guards also got out of the other cars and followed them. Mostly to ensure their lords' safety and to deliver food in Beel's case.
They sat in their seats. Their eyes glanced at each other as the tense atmosphere was getting heavier even though none of them let out a word. What could be heard was Beel, who was busy eating his ice cream.
Letos only took a few seconds to realize that the others just saw this eting as an empty formality.
