Chapter 277: The Exam Week I
The Incubus System Chapter 277. The Exam Week I
It was 01.46 PM. The afternoon sun shone brightly in the sky above Diamond College. I and the other students sat in the classroom in silence. Our attention was on the papers filled with dozens of questions on our desks. Our hands swiped the tip of our pens across the papers as we spilled all of what we had learned this semester. Including Larry. If he usually tried to cheat, not this time. He looked serious and full of concentration since he had prepared himself well for this exam. Of course, this time he had to be serious since he had to save 'nana-chan' from 'The Evil Dark Lord', aka his father. So he couldn't fail. He said his father 'kidnapped' his beloved body pillow and hid it somewhere. Luckily, he had moved his uniform to another place.
The click-clack sound of the lecturer's shoes stepping on the floor echoed in the room, showing how quiet the room was. As he walked slowly, he swept his gaze around the room, making sure that none of us was cheating. Every now and then, he would stop and glance at a nearby student paper before continuing to walk.
"Ten minutes left." His voice that followed the echo of his footsteps, made the students quicken their hand movements. Some shivered in a panic since they had to fill in their unanswered questions faster. Those who had finished, quickly opened our previous sheets and checked them one more time, just to make sure we had answered all the questions, including me.
After being quite satisfied with all my answers, I put back my pen and grabbed my bag. But before I stood up from my seat, Larry walked past me and placed his papers on the front desk. Indeed, it was unusual for him, considering he was usually the last. But none of us was surprised anymore since he already did this for a whole week. After I put my sheets on the front desk, I left the class with Larry.
"How's the test?" I said in a relaxed tone as we walked down the corridor to the Cafeteria. That was our last test and today was our last day for this semester. Since they would send the results via email and announce them on the college website so we could enjoy our break starting from tomorrow.
"I'm sure I can get good grades this time," he answered confidently. His hands were clenched. The glint in his eyes and his expression made him look like a hero who was ready to fight his nemesis to save the princess.
"I will definitely save 'nana-chan'," he said again in a lower voice.
I sighed and smiled. Although his reason sounded childish, at least it was successful to make him study. As my feet moved, I shifted my gaze to the front, on the corridor which was still a bit empty since most of the students were still in the classroom and fighting for this semester's final battle. While my mind travelled on many things. Three weeks had passed since I turned into an Incubus. Even though I went through a lot of struggles and hardships, especially in the first week of my change, things started to stabilize in the second week.
I was level 56 now. Indeed, it was a bit slower compared to my first week since that meant I only got 10 levels since I used my Shadow Ritual for the first time. But since the crack had improved and the demons were decreasing so this was good news. Still, it didn't mean the big crack would never show up again. In the past two weeks, I had dealt with 5 Big cracks and fought 3 demon lords/demonesses' maids/assistants. My worst opponent? Still, that Female Spider Demon kind since she almost managed to **** a male demon hunter. I could conclude that some demon lords/ demonesses were already aware of this, so they were constantly looking for opportunities to expand their territory into the human world.
As we walked down the corridor, the students' conversation distracted me and Larry.
"Have you watched the news about the mysterious black hands' phenomenon? I heard The Demon Hunter Association has admitted that it is their newest weapon!" said a student excitedly.
"I've heard of it. That's really crazy! Who knew they secretly developed such great magic tech to defeat the demons!" another answered.
A smile appeared on my lips after I heard their words, either because I was holding back my laughter remembering how that skill put the association in a mess or because I found this very ironic since the association finally had no other choice but to acknowledge The Ritual was their magic tech. I remembered how the association's press secretary talked in a press conference a few days ago with a fake proud face and a big smile when he announced that skill as their magic tech to prevent public panic after they did not give any statement for more than a week. Which was closed by a warning that the public should not travel at night.
The reason? Of course, because they still couldn't catch 'the great demon'. Yeah... They couldn't cover up about me anymore since there were too many witnesses. The real reason? Because they were afraid my Shadow Ritual killed the wrong target. I knew all of this from Emma. She also told me how chaotic the association was every time I did the Ritual since they thought the skill could kill innocent people.
Meanwhile, Larry had a different reaction. A tired long breath escaped from his mouth as the glint in his eyes dimmed. The expression on his face made him look like a hero who had just lost a battle.
I gave him a tap on his shoulder without saying anything to comfort him since I didn't know what to say. And he replied by turning to me with a wry smile and nod several times, indicating he was fine. I could understand him since that skill had shown the demon hunters' incompetence.
Actually, I wanted to say a lot of things to him, including admitting that I was The Great Demon since he had told me that he hated how slow the association senate was for making decisions. Sometimes they didn't hesitate to sacrifice their members. So I could assume, most demon hunters think the same as me. The problem was... the association money, technology and resources came from the senate. So they couldn't do anything. As usual, he said it as if this only happened in his online game.
As for the association itself, not much had changed since the last time I warned them. They were still trying to find out about me or rather trying to catch me and the demon hunters were still on patrol as usual. The difference was that they placed more demon hunters in one area and they had to make a report if the black hands appeared. Well, since they couldn't do anything other than that, that was good enough.
Emma also told me about the vaccine. Previously, the association had a hard time getting it for an unknown reason. But a week ago, suddenly the supply came. And at the same time, Mia returned to her house. So I bet my guess that the vaccine has something to do with her kingdom was correct. In addition, Mia had used Pearl's phone number to contact Emma to ask if Stardustechnologies was interested in expanding its business in magic pharmacy. But Emma had to reject it since her father was not interested in it.
Unfortunately, after Mia returned to her house, she hadn't been able to meet Damian just yet. Even though I knew she missed me from her emotional status. And as Ethan, I could only say 'Hi' accompanied by a bit of short talk, since 'her brother' or rather her royal guard followed her like a chick to its mother. So I hadn't read her mind with my skill.
As for my other partners, I had not confessed my identity to anyone else other than my last confession at Myra's secret lab. Pearl asked me to postpone my confession to Diamond since judging from their private conversation, she said Diamond's perception of demon was still bad. And I also hadn't found the right time to prove that I was not like other demons. My only proof was the Cretunt Bridge's incident.
