The Incubus System Chapter 159. I'm Sorry...

Celia and Foxy's PoV

The deserted station was very messy due to the demon's attack. Celia's heart was pounding, her mind filled with confusion as her feet moved quickly following her brother, running towards the outside. Her eyes stared at Ethan's back in front of her.

Today, she went home late since she decided to study at the school library with her friends for tomorrow's exam. But she did not expect her decision would bring disaster for her. When her train stopped at Nighthallow Station, suddenly the demons attacked them and caught some people, she was one of them. Surprisingly, although she remembered that her brother was not there when the demons closed the door with a strange power. But after she whispered her brother's name out of fear, suddenly 'Ethan' appeared by her side and hugged her. In her confusion, he said his gentle words which reminded her that he fulfilled his promise.

'I told you, right Just call me. I'll go straight to your place. '

At that time, the other hostages did not realize this because their attention was focused on the demons in front of them. But she realized this oddity very clearly.

To be honest she was happy that her beloved brother was able to fulfil his promise. She even hugged him tightly since she was so afraid of the demons, though she knew it was impossible for a human to appear suddenly like that.

As her mind returned to reality, she shifted her gaze to her brother's hand that held her, making sure they didn't part as their feet walked down the stairs. Celia's confusion and doubt got deeper as they got further away from the winged demon that had suddenly appeared in front of them. Even though the winged demon looked unfriendly, when the demon was protecting her and her brother, Celia realized something that had kept bothering her. The demon was wearing Ethan's shirt!

She couldn't possibly be wrong and if it was a coincidence, then it was too unreal, just like Ethan who suddenly appeared next to her. Because the top button on the shirt had her initial name. A week ago, when she was tidying up her brother's room, she found that one of his favourite shirt buttons was missing. She knew Ethan needed a lot of shirts to apply for jobs, so she fixed it. She remembered since she couldn't find a similar button, she took it from her beloved shirt and sewed it on to Ethan's. That's why today she pinned the top of her shirt with a pin to replace it. Moreover ... That demon's scent and her brother were too similar.

As she could not contain the confusion in her head, Celia stopped her steps.

"Brother, wait!"

Foxy stopped her steps and turned to Celia in confusion.

"What's wrong" she asked.

Without warning, Celia suddenly approached her and brought her face close to Foxy's neck. Foxy could only stiffen in shock, but she wasn't worried because she was sure her disguise was perfect.

Celia realized her brother's scent was completely different and it made her suspicions become clearer.

"Celia, this place is very dangerous. We have to get out of here," warned Foxy. She even could imitate Ethan's voice perfectly.

Celia distanced herself as her confusion filled her head since the man in front of her was too similar to her brother.

"Brother, did you lend your special shirt to your friend" she asked out of blue.

Foxy paused for a moment to think since she didn't know whether Ethan had ever done it or not.

"I don't think so," she gave an uncertain answer since Ethan could fix it later.

Celia's suspicions were getting higher since Ethan would never give or lent that shirt to anyone. Finally, Celia decided to find out with a trick question.

"Do you remember the birthday shirt I gave you last year I thought you gave it to someone else."

Foxy smiled.

"Of course, I remember. How can I give that precious shirt to someone else" she replied. She was sure Ethan wouldn't give a gift from his beloved sister to anyone else.

Celia startled. Slowly her feet moved backwards, away from the fake Ethan in front of her. It was clear that even though his face and appearance were the same as Ethan, he was not her brother. He was not Ethan ... Last year they just lost their father, so she didn't give anything on Ethan's birthday and she was sure her brother couldn't possibly forget that bitter experience.

"You are not my brother ..." she said in fear. Her eyes looked at the fake Ethan before her in fear.

"What are you talking about I'm really your brother," Foxy tried to convince Celia in panic. She didn't expect her simple answer to open her disguise.

Celia's eyes trembled in confusion and fear as she shook her head side to side.

"No ... I don't believe you ..." Her thoughts returned to the winged demon, an absurd theory crossed her head. But only that could explain this oddity, her brother's boldness and his sudden strength. She mustered up her courage before turning around and running to where the winged demon was. She knew this decision could have killed her, but she also didn't want to follow this fake Ethan.

"Celia!" shouted Foxy as her feet moved after Celia who ran into the station. But just as she chased for a few steps, she could feel a great power before her and she recognized that power as her master's power. Foxy stopped her steps and slowly retreated. Celia couldn't enter Ethan's Devil Space because she didn't have enough MP to enter it. Whereas Foxy would enter it automatically as soon as she stepped in there and she didn't want it because she realized, with her state, she would only interfere with her master fight. Finally, she decided to wait there.

"Master ... I'm sorry I let you down..." she whispered sadly.

Meanwhile, Celia walked cautiously as soon as she approached where she had encountered the demons before. Her eyes looked around in caution as her heart was beating fast in fear in confusion.

'What am I doing here' She knew this was a stupid decision, but she couldn't help herself because of her curiosity and confusion.

After she searched for that winged demon location in that messy station and couldn't find him, she decided to check out the most dangerous place there, the train...

Sneaking slowly, Celia returned to the damaged train. She peeked carefully to make sure it was safe before going inside and found no one there.

"Are you really my brother" she muttered in confusion.

Then, suddenly a winged demon appeared in front of her and stood with his back facing her. She looked at him in shock and fear. Her voice stuck in her throat. And when the demon turned around and pointed his weapon at her, he looked at her with the same expression.

Ethan's PoV

"Why are you still here" I asked as I could get my voice out. My eyes swept around me looking for Foxy.

"Where is your brother" I was not sure Foxy would dare disobey my order and leave Celia alone.

Celia's eyes trembled in doubt and confusion.

"Isn't it ... My brother is in front of me now"

My heart was beating fast. I never thought she could find out my identity this fast.

"You shouldn't make fun out of a demon, miss," I said unconsciously. I knew I shouldn't have said that, but my feelings were mixed. I was afraid she would act cold like she used to if she found out everything. I was afraid that this bitter truth would destroy my relationship with her again. Besides this was too sudden for me. Unlike Emma, I could live without her if she couldn't accept my identity or hated me. But not with Celia ... She was my precious little sister and I didn't want to lose her. That's why I wanted to make a lot of preparations before telling her everything.

"No ... You're my brother, right" she insisted. Her trembling legs stepped slowly towards me.

"How can you be so sure" My feet started moving backwards in reflex. I could fight the demons fearlessly, yet I was so afraid that Celia hated me and was disappointed after finding out that her brother had turned into a terrible creature.

"Of course, I'm sure ... Because there's my initial name on your top shirt button ..." Celia's feet continued to move slowly approach me.

My steps stopped, my other hand pulled my shirt as I looked at the top button of my shirt. This was a special shirt that father bought for both of us and it has our initial names on the buttons of the shirt. My father deliberately made that special request since our shirts were in the same colour, while our sizes were not much different. I remembered I was supposed to wear this shirt a week ago, but it was missing a button, that's why I changed to another shirt and hung this by the back of the door. After that, I forgot about it because I was too busy.

My heart was beating even faster as I realized what her words were true. My panic swept over me, my brain tried to find an excuse but I couldn't find it. I couldn't possibly say I borrowed this shirt from 'Ethan' because Celia knew I wouldn't lend this special shirt to anyone.

Celia stepped past my lance. Her teary eyes looked at me deeply.

"Brother ... Why don't you say anything to me Why are you not being honest with me"

I froze without being able to say a word. My eyes stared at her full of emotions that I couldn't explain in words.

She stopped in front of me. Her trembling hands touched my mask and released it, revealing my face completely.

"Are you afraid that I will hate you" she guessed. And she guessed it right.

"Yes ..." I couldn't deny it anymore.

"You are my only brother ... Even if you turn into a monster ... I will not hate you."

My heart wavered. It felt like it was about to stop, my emotions and feelings flared up after hearing her words. I lowered my hand and released the black lance in my hand as I cancelled my Demonic Spike, turning all of my black lances into the dark aura that vanished like smoke. Then I hugged her tightly as if I didn't want to let her go anymore.

"I'm sorry ..." I whispered. I didn't know what to say anymore.

After that, I could feel Celia's hands moving to hug me as her tears rolled down on my shirt.

"Brother ..."-
