Stories of the Incubi

”…I don know how to do as youve asked. ”

”You don ? ”

”Ive never had a friend before. ”

”Me too~! But aren friends cool?! ” She felt excited about the first interaction they had.

”…Do you consider violence cool? ”

”Violence…? ” She tilted her head at his words. It was only then did he realise his mistake.

”The Underworld is different from Earth. Here, a lot of different Demons find intimacy through conflict. ”

”That sounds really interesting~ ” She sat down on a chair next to him while giving a refreshed smile.

As if shed been liberated from all her restraints.

Whether that be responsibility, or having to work off dept left behind by the only father in her life.

At this exact moment, he started to feel the fact that she STILL wasn giving a damn about his identity as a Demon to be quite absurd. What gave her the confidence to up and talk to him?

Most of the time, the term Incubus would make even female Demons turn away from him.

There had never been a time he hadn either been hated or desired by those of the Underworld.

This
ew feelings kinda… disgusted him a little.

”Cuckolds and sometimes forced quickies are common in the Underworld. Do you want to experience the latter? ” Zephyrs tone was sharp despite his outwards appearance of a very sexy hunk.

He was no gentleman.

”…No, not really. ” Marys dedication to keeping this conversation going for even a little while longer.

This was despite how his words were definitely hinting at wanting her to leave.

As there wasn much to do in these times when the seven armies weren at war with the angels, he didn really mind. Now Zephyr could have some peace and quite… He decided to rest a little.

Eating humans and devouring so much negative energy has finally allowed him to reach a greater level of strength as a Greater Incubus compared to before. Now he realised why Demons loved finding contractors, even if it was just once in their lifetime.

He hit the jackpot when he found Mary…!

”What is your favourite food? ” Once again, he was surprised by how she was able to talk once again.

Didn he just threaten to assault her earlier?

Was his threat not clear enough?

Well, it wasn like he could actually do anything to her.

Not only was he currently grateful for his meal, but also had to abide by contract that bound them.

There was no way hed REALLY do anything to her…!

”Life force, preferably without skin contact. ”

Would she feel disgusted now? Zephyr took a look at her face. He found that she seemingly recalled how he slaughtered a bunch of humans after he had been summoned. Her face paled in fear, but she quickly hid her thoughts with a stone face

”Why are you trying so hard? ” He decided to stop beating around the bush and ask, his nap was on the line. If she was just buttering him up as the Master of this house, hed want her to go away.

”…I never had a friend before. ” Mary spoke to him.

”Then why do you desire a friend? ”

”Because I don have one. ” She answered as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.

Oddly enough, he wasn able to poke any holes in her argument.

After all, it was HER OWN desire. Some kinda worked that way, so he accepted her reply.

”Whats your favourite colour? ” The girl started to ask.

”Black. ” Was she doing a Q&A? Zephyr couldn be bothered beating around the bush, so he told her.

”Do all Demons have horns? ”

”Some don . ”

”Do you have Wi-Fi here in the Underworld? ”

”No. ”

”Don you feel cold with an exposed chest? ”

”…Just go to sleep. ” He couldn stand her constant queries and ordered with a strong tone.

”Is there anything I can do to help you? ” She didn listen at all.

Mary instead chose to try repaying his favour.

”Just don cause trouble. Stay in this house and don leave, or else I won be able to protect you properly. ” As soon as he finished his words, he felt a dazzling aura of gratitude coming from Mary.

”…Just to be clear: I am NOT doing this for you. Are you dumb enough to wonder the Underworld despite being a Human? Youll be eaten in less than three seconds as soon as you try to leave. ”

”Okay. ” She nodded her head in understanding.

He closed his eyes to rest, but was soon awoken by a realisation that hit him after he had calmed down:

”So, Miss Mary Lockhart, was it? …Why is it you never asked if you could return to Earth? ”

”I don want to. ” The woman finally frowned. Her mood started to plummet as soon as her life on Earth was mentioned. Considering her bleak past, he realised it was only an obvious answer indeed…

”Do as you see fit. ” He wasn going to take her autonomy away from her if thats the case.

”Hey, do you like bullfrogs? ”

”… ” Okay, now this was getting annoying…! How could he deal with this without roaring at her?

”I have a library, if you like knowledge. ”

”Can I go there~? Pretty please! ” Her eyes lit up as soon as something related to books came up.

”Tomorrow. Lead her to her room. ” The second half of his sentence was directed at the maid nearby.

A maid who looked like a statue walked out and gestured towards the woman, kindly asking her to follow her.

Mary wasn able to deny her l.

She felt it would be inappropriate when she went out of her way to lead her to her bedroom.

It was only after she left did the Incubus finally sigh, feeling a headache coming on.

The Demon Marshal of Hell realised he needed to find something for her to do quickly, or else…

Zephyr didn even want to think of those sweet and cute expressions she kept showing him

They made him want to barf.

He was not used to having someone genuinely interested in his well-being.

I must think of something. He thought while scratching his head in defeat at her attitude.

What a big mess…!
