Chapter 518. The Secret Meeting III

The Incubus System Chapter 518. The Secret Meeting III

The Demon Lords' PoV

Her question was answered with a frown from both Beel and Zatan. Their disbelief was clear in the look in their eyes.

"Because he wants to take it all, of course. Duh!" Beel replied as if she was asking an obvious question.

"He was Erebus' trustee subject, right? A thousand years ago he had tasted the throne once even though it was not official. I bet he wants it again for himself. So he made us and the king kill each other. Just like how he did it a few years ago. That's why he stole our important documents. That way we have no other choice but to face the king. We can't go against his orders either," Zatan explained. It was simple logic, so he didn't understand why she couldn't catch it.

"And once we weaken, he will kill us and take all of our possessions. From the start, this alliance was only made for his own benefit," Beel hissed. His anger was evident in the tone of his voice. Even his hand stopped to shove the food into his mouth.

Zatan gritted his teeth as his blood boiled in anger.

"In other words, Letos made us his weapon and shield. Moreover, I heard rumors that the king has weakened due to his battle a few years ago," Zatan added. He felt so stupid that he had been enchanted by Letos' sweet promise and accepted his offer.

Surprisingly, despite everything Beel and Zatan had said, Syntyche still felt the oddity.

"But if Letos wants to make us and the king kill each other, why doesn't he come after me even though I've seen his face?" She asked. It could be all of this was just a trap.

Zatan took a deep breath.

"That's because he still needs you to defeat the king. He had already taken what he needed and that was all. Even if we break the alliance and cancel all of our plans, Letos can simply give our documents to the king and it will be the king who will chase us. He left us no choice but to fight the king," he explained once again.

"Besides, our CCTV footage is nothing compared to our documents. None of it showed his face, only that dead incubus. Letos could simply deny it or say it was someone else," he continued.

"Instead of taking care of you, he prefered to finish his plan by taking my documents. That way none of us can escape from his grasp," Beel added. The frowns on both of their faces did not disappear.

"Also, you are the one who has all the clues and evidence that strengthens the allegation. It was your Spyder who found CCTV footage on Licheri that showed the dead incubus and how Letos accidentally uncovered his disguise. All the evidence points to him and we know his track record. Why are you doubting yourself?" Zatan reminded her once again. He didn't understand her doubts while she was the one who got a lot of clues between them.

Syntyche couldn't deny, judging by what Letos had done in the past about how he sacrificed other demon lords, his subordinates, even his favorite wife, Letos might also be planning to do the same to them.

Still, there was another possibility that showed that this was the king's work. But since the king had never done this before and there was no evidence about it, both Beel and Zatan weren't sure about it. In addition, all the evidence pointed to Letos.

"So we've simply taken his trap," Beel continued, completely ignoring her silence.

"Yes. The moment we agreed to become his alliance, we fell into the trap. Maybe, Letos also did the same with our friends who died a few years ago. It's just that the king was still too strong at that time, so Letos gave up his intention to kill him and decided to weaken him again to ensure his victory by using us." Trace regret was evident in Zatan's tone of voice. If he could turn back time, he wouldn't have made this stupid decision.

Beel bent his head a bit and shook his head from side to side slowly.

"I never thought I would be treated as a pawn by my fellow lord," he muttered in disappointment. He was never interested in power or anything like that. What he cared about was food. If it wasn't because of the human world, maybe he wouldn't have accepted this. But who knew his enthusiasm for food got him into trouble?

Again Syntyche said something else.

"I still feel weird about this case, but I can't pinpoint what it is…" she muttered in confusion. Her pupils moved side to side and the wrinkles on her forehead also showed the same thing.

It made Beel and Zatan frown.

"Did you taste Letos' dick or something? Has he managed to manipulate you?" Zatan blurted out in annoyance. He couldn't believe it after the clues and evidence, she still thought it wasn't Letos who did it.

"Syntyche, we are talking about Letos here. The incubus lord. Don't let him fool you or you'll end up as you used to when you slaughter your own kin," Beel reminded her in worry. After all this talk, he didn't want to lose Syntyche. Let alone letting her go to Letos' side. It was tantamount to killing him and Zatan.

Beel's statement made her blood freeze as her memory recalled the tragedy. Her adrenaline rushed through her veins.

"I know. You don't have to remind me," she said in a much lower voice.

"Good. So can I assume you agree with our analysis?" Zatan made sure.

Reluctantly, she answered him with a nod.

Upon her response, Zatan turned his attention to both Beel and Syntyche.

"Since we have agreed. We have to strike back. We can't let Letos use us or wait for the king to come to us."

"I agree. But we can't possibly attack  Licheri. Lilieth was there now. The king could have thought it was an attack on his wife. It will only make things worse," she warned.

"Then we will attack him directly," said Beel out of the blue.

The others turned to him.

"What do you mean?" asked Zatan.

"We will attack his mansion or steal some secrets from him. But we have to make sure he doesn't know it was us," Beel explained before he took another bite of his cake.

"Hm… that's a tough one," Zatan muttered.

"Why don't we make the king and Letos kill each other?" She gave the idea.

"Letos has our documents while we don't have any strong proof. Once he knows we're making a move, he can just hand the documents over to the king," Beel refused.

"True. He is a sneaky bastard. I wish I never agreed to work with him," said Zatan in regret.

"Regrets are useless, just concentrate on the solution," Beel reminded.

As they discussed, Syntyche still sensed that someone else was behind all of this. But like what Beel said, it could be Letos' trick and she didn't want to fall into the same trick as before.

'I think I should make my own private investigation for this.'
