The Incubus System

The Incubus System chapter 491. Last Mission III

The Glob King's PoV

Beel returned his gaze to his table which was filled with some snacks. His hand reached for a plate of cookies and started to put them one by one into his mouth. As he chewed, he was deep in thought. His brain was trying to find answers about how the culprit took the document.

'How? Just how?' he thought. His hands kept putting cookie pieces into his mouth.

Indeed he was angry at his subordinates, but based on the evidence, he couldn't blame them either. There wasn't any strange noise, oddity, or whatever. All his subordinates had also done their job well and he didn't find any oddity in the footage. But how could those documents just disappear?

There were at least 20 huge boxes in the cargo and all of them disappeared without a trace. Wasn't that weird?

Moreover, there were no signs of damage. Even if the culprit could infiltrate that place, how could he get all of them out from that place?

Those oddities made Beel sure the thief was a high-level demon. There should be only a few demons with extraordinary skills like this. But who? And how did that demon do it? That was the reason why he was so angry and as usual, anger made him hungry.

'Now I understand why Syntyche was in a hurry,' thought Beel in a huff. But that didn't answer all these mysteries.

Amid his thoughts, his hand tried to take another cookie. But he only took the air. When he shifted his gaze to the plate, he found it was empty.

He took another plate which was still filled with cookies and placed it on the side of the empty one.

That sight made him speechless. His eyes fell on those similar design plates. A thought of how the culprit could have stolen and emptied the cargo without damaging it crossed his mind.

"Ah… I get it…" he muttered without taking his eyes off the plates. He assumed the culprit had stolen the documents from the start before his subordinates arrived at the building.

And to cover his tracks, the culprit used some kind of skill to hypnotize his subordinates. It made them feel like they were carrying the boxes into the cargo. Or maybe… the culprit had replaced all the boxes with fake ones. Something made of demonic power and the fake boxes would disappear after a while. In other words, the documents never got into the cargo!

Beel pointed at one of his elite soldiers without taking his eyes off the plates.

"You! Tell the team leader to check the city hall's CCTVs and report the results to me," he ordered. If his guess was right, they should find some evidence from the footage.

"Yes, My Lord," replied the elite soldier. Then he carried out his orders.

Beel took another cookie and put it in his mouth. This time, he ate at a much slower pace. After he got the evidence, he should be able to find the culprit. But of course, he would not be alone, he would contact his alliance and make sure the culprit regretted all his crimes.

Ethan's PoV

Casually, I walked through the darkness towards the light at the end of my portal. My eyes fell on the document in my hand. My pupils moved side to side as I read them. My other hand held my phone, illuminating that paper with the flashlight.

Behind me, dozens of boxes of documents floated, following me, like a bunch of balloons following a kid in a theme park. Yeah, I put good use of my Telekinesis skill.

I could say this was the easiest and simplest plan I had ever done. I even only did it by myself and asked all my servants to train as usual. After what happened in Jealousi, I had predicted that the spider queen would contact their last alliance, the Glob King.

Then, as I predicted, the Glob King was frightened and ordered his subordinates to secure everything important to him. Including the documents.

So, instead of creating a diversion, I simply used my Camouflage skill and walked around the city hall for a while just to leave some evidence before I hid in one of the empty rooms and used my Evil Eye to spy on what was going on in the basement.

When they were almost done, I teleported to another corner of that basement and made a sound to create an opportunity for my Evil Eye to sneak into the cargo.

The rest was simple. Once the truck started to move, I teleported myself into the cargo, used my Telekinesis on the boxes, and opened my portal. Just like that, I stole all the documents without a sound, like a pro thief.

Once the light illuminated my surroundings and an announcement that the portal had closed appeared in front of me, I knew I had arrived at my destination.

[The portal has closed!]

I lifted my head and looked at the desk not far from in front of me.

"Hey, dad. Guess what I found---" My words trailed off once I realized 5 elite demons who were standing 2 meters in front of me were already pointing their hands at me.

"Who are you? How dare you brag into the king's office?!" said one of them. Their dark aura swirled on their palms. From their gazes, it was clear they thought I was the enemy. Not all elite soldiers knew my identity and existence, so I considered their reactions normal.

Behind them, Lord Damon smiled dryly and shook his head from side to side slowly. From the documents in his hand, it seemed that he had just received a report from them.

-Bruk!

I canceled my Telekinesis, dropping the boxes behind me. Slowly, I raised my hands, a sign that I didn't want to fight them. My eyes were on them.

"Um… Dad? Can you explain this misunderstanding?" I said. I could use my barrier if I had to but I was sure Lord Damon could handle this.
