The Incubus System 53 Chapter 52. Rotten Fish And Sweaty Socks

The police car sirens' sound could be heard in Cherrias Plaza, a shopping district not far from Diamond College. Several police cars were parked crosswise, blocking the road, blocking people from entering the area. Several ambulances were also seen busy handling several injured people who were lying on the stretchers.

The policemen stood at the front lines with their left hands stretched forward. The magic bracelets on their wrists glowed and a wall composed by their magic power covered the place. The magic bracelet is a device for converting a person's magic power into a magic shield that is commonly used by the police. While behind them, another troop of policemen braced in their position with their magic guns. Similar to the magic bracelet, a magic gun is a device to turn someone's magic power into magic bullets.

Unfortunately, although magic shields are effective enough to withstand the demon attacks, magic bullets are not very effective at killing demons. It takes at least about 15 bullets just to kill a rat demon. Whereas without the Holy Chain that can bind it, the police will have difficulty to shoot it because of the demon's fast movement. Therefore, in demons attack's case, the police usually only closed the area, evacuated the residents and waited for the demon hunters to arrive.

Larry, Emma and Theo had changed their clothes into demon hunter uniforms and covered their heads with hoods. Their feet stepped confidently towards the place while as soon as the people saw their uniforms, they immediately gave them a way.

'Wow, they sure look like heroes.' I stood by the alley, watching them from a distance with a cap over my head. Even though I didn't change into Damian, but I already took off my sweater and placed my bag in my college locker.

Once they arrived in front of the police, Theo showed them his demon compass and a shield disappeared to give them a way. They walked into the area and the shield re-formed behind them.

I entered an alley nearby to avoid the crowd. Since I couldn't follow them, I had to find another way. My gaze swept around me, making sure no one else was there before I returned my gaze to the building in front of me.

'Demonic Form Activated.'

-Kkraakk --- Kkraakk --- Kkraakk

Two horns appeared above my head along with a pair of bat wings growing behind my back. A tail grew behind me and slipped out of my jeans, while my eyes turned red and my face changed to Damian.

[You have activated your Demonic Form.]

[Fly has been activated.]

[All skills effectiveness 30%.]

My feet landed on top of the building and walked to the other side as I folded my wings. My eyes swept downwards, looking for the demons' location. And dozens of demons gathered in a small public park immediately caught my attention, it was very easy for me to find them since I was on a high ground.

I watched them for a moment and their status appeared above their heads.

[Name: Shadow Imp]

[Level 6]

[HP: 169/169]

[DP: 55/55]

My heart was pounding as my mind returned to last night's incident. My eyes continued to check them one by one but I did not find any Chaos Imp or Vengeful Imp among them. I was relieved by that but then I realized their number was growing.

I remembered one more thing.

'The crack!' What that Shadow Imps did was the same as yesterday's incident, it meant that they were probably waiting for their leader. They're waiting for the Vengeful Imp to come out of the crack!

My eyes swept around once again and found the Imps were coming from an alley not far from there. Well, what my 'not far' means is 3 buildings away from where I am now. Since I was at a high place everything didn't seem far for me. I glanced at the three of them to make sure they were still far away before jumping from building to building as fast as I could. I didn't dare to fly too high because the sun was still shining brightly, they could see me easily.

The stink stench pierced my nose along with an announcement in a red box in front of me when I stood right in the building next to that alley.

[!!! Warning !!! ]

[Other Demons detected!]

I opened my wings as I glided down. Several Chaos Imps and a weird crack hovering in their midst entered my sight. I immediately recognized them since they still haven't turned themselves into humans like the Shadow Imps earlier. My eyes stared at them like an eagle eyeing its prey as I used my skill.

'Demonic Energy. Demonic Claw.'

[Demonic Energy has been activated.]

[Demonic Claw has been activated.]

[STR: 50 90]

[AGI: 50 90]

[Time remaining: 4:56]

In an instant, my speed got faster and hard black skin grew over my hands like strong gauntlets. Once they entered my range, my claw swung to the closest Imp's neck.

[Critical hit!]

[You have hit a Chaos Imp for 421 HP. ]

The Imp turned into ashes while the other Imps turned their gaze at me in shock. Without wasting time, I jumped behind them and swung my claw again.

[Critical hit!]

[You have hit a Chaos Imp for 411 HP. ]

With my demonic form, I could jump and slide behind one after another Imp with ease, turning their bodies one by one into ashes.

As the last Chaos Imp before me turned to ashes, a sound rang behind me.

-Kreekk --- Kreekk --- Kreekk ...

I turned around and saw another Imp forcing himself out of the crack. His completely red eyes stared at me, sharp spikes covering his hands to his shoulders, as well as his feet. Due to his different shape from the Chaos Imp, I quickly checked him with my observation skill.

'Observation.'

[Observation skill succeeded.]

[Name: Foul Imp]

[Level 24]

[Race: Demon]

[HP: 516/516]

[DP: 129/129]

[Skills: Acid Splash lv 3, Demonic Claw lv 3, Venom Spike lv 1]

[Emotion: Rage]

[Condition: Normal]

[Weakness: Red Orb]

[Talent: Spike Protection (Protects himself by extending the spikes around the body like a hedgehog)]

From his talent, I could conclude that he has a strong body like the Chaos Imp. But since it didn't say that he is invulnerable to magic attack so I decided to attack him from a distance as I searched for his weakness. I jumped backwards, my hand turned towards him.

'Hell Thunder!'

Dark lightning came out of my hand and attacked the Imp. I remember that I had a 10% chance to paralyze him with this skill, if it works then I can find his weak point more quickly.

[You have struck a Foul Imp for 110 HP. ]

"Grraaaahhhh!" The Foul Imp screamed angrily as he fired some spikes from his body.

-Prang! -Prang! -Prang!

The building glass breaking sound was heard as I flicked my wings to fly away from his spikes. Actually, I want to use my Devil Space skill to cover this place but if I use it then Larry, Emma and Theo will be in demonic curse effect, I'm not sure they can fight against the Shadow Imps in that state.

I noticed a red orb between his crotch.

'Found it!'

Quickly, I aimed my hand at it.

'Demonic Spike!' Yep! It was between his crotch, I didn't want to attack it at close range.

Ten black lances appeared in front of me and shot towards the orb, like bullets fired in a row.

[You have shot a Foul Imp for 162 HP. ] X10

Soon his body turned to ashes. I turned my gaze to the crack since I realized there hasn't been any announcement that my battle is over.

Another Foul Imp tried to get out of it, his head, body and legs partially out, while his arms were still stuck inside. His body kept moving, rubbing against the edge of the crack, trying to open it even wider.

"Oh no, you don't!" I directed my hand at him.

'Demonic Spike!'

Another ten black lances appeared in front of me and hurtled towards the orb between his crotch. But strangely there was no damage from it, even all my lances were destroyed before they could touch it.

[Your Demonic Spike has been destroyed by a barrier.]

[Your enemy is invulnerable to magic attack.]

My eyes widened in shock. I glanced behind him and caught a glimpse of another Imp who was dressed like a medieval mage, his staff pointed at the Foul Imp as he grinned evilly at me. I checked the status above his head.

[Name: Mage Imp]

[Level 26]

[HP: 512/512]

[DP: 203/213]

It was clear, the Mage Imp used his skill to protect his friend. Without wasting time, I lunged to the Foul Imp. Since I can't attack him with my magic attack, I just need to kill him with physical attacks.

I kicked him hard right in the orb.

[Critical hit!]

[You have hit a Foul Imp for 412 HP. ]

Then swung my claw at it, but before my claw landed, the Imp vomited something out of his mouth.

A sticky and slimy liquid drenched my body as my claw smashed his orb.

[Critical hit!]

[You have hit a Foul Imp for 410 HP. ]

The Foul Imp's body turned to ashes, while a sharp pain burned my skin accompanied by a hissing sound. I grimaced in pain as my skin turned red like scalded by boiling water.

[You have taken 54 Acid damage.]

[Warning! You are in an acid burn effect.]

[Your speed will decrease by 10%.]

[Your HP will decrease by 1 point per 2 seconds.]

"What the hell!" I cursed in annoyance as I shook off the remaining fluid from my body, enduring the pain. The stench of rotten fish mixed with sweaty socks that hadn't been washed for a month wafted from it. But then I held out my hand in front of me as I realized the Imp Mage had pointed his staff at me.

'Demonic Spike!'

The Mage Imp cancelled his spell and protected himself with a barrier. All my lances were destroyed before it could touch him.

[Your Demonic Spike has been destroyed by a barrier.]

[Your enemy is invulnerable to magic attack.]

Before that Mage Imp launched another attack, I cast my skill.

'Dark Energy.'

The dark aura emanating from my hands covered the crack as I held back the stinging pain that stabbed my skin. Realizing that the crack was almost closed, the Imp Mage cast another spell. A black electric ball in the size of a baseball appeared in front of him and he hit it with his staff. The ball flew towards me, while I stopped my dark energy skill and countered it with my Demonic Spike.

My black lances flew towards it, his electricity orb and my lances collided in the mid-air, blowing it before it could come out the crack. The Imp Mage was thrown away, while I cast my Dark Energy to close the crack.

A few seconds later, the crack was closed.

[The crack has closed.]

[You have used up 10 DP. ]

*Ting!*

[All enemies have been defeated!]

[Level Up!]

[You are now Level 21.]

[You have 7 unused stat points.]

[You have 1 unused skill point.]

I let out a sigh of relief as I lowered my hand.

'Dispel, Dark Healing.'

[Dispel skill succeeded.]

[The acid burn effect has been neutralized.]

[Dark Healing has been used.]

[Your HP has restored 100 points.]

The pain that burned my skin disappeared, and so did all of my wounds. Unfortunately, even though the acid burn effect was gone, the stench that covered me didn't diminish at all.

"Dammit! Stupid Imp! If you got a hangover just jackpot somewhere else!" I cursed again, waving my hands, feet, head and wings, hoping it could reduce the smell.

Realizing my efforts were in vain, I let out another sigh and flapped my wings, bringing my body upward.

'Looks like I have to go home to take a shower after this.'
