The Incubus System Chapter 516. The Secret Meeting I The Spider Queen's PoV One week had passed since all the chaos in the dark dimension's big cities. Although the news reported the attack only occurred in Licheri, Jealousi, and Avarici. But the three demon lords knew Gourmando was also under attack. It was just not as big as the others. They assumed the capital also suffered the same attack, but judging from how proud Lord Damon was, they assumed he had covered everything. According to what they had discussed, the three demon lords decided to hold a secret meeting in a small place in the middle of their territory. Instead of a fancy hotel or building, they chose a private villa away from everyone. That villa was located on the edge of a beach and belonged to the spider queen. Also like their previous agreement, all of them would bring all the evidence and investigation results. The red moon shone brightly in the dark sky. The sound of the waves enchanted the spider queen's ears who stood on the side of the glass fence of her private villa's terrace. A two stories modern-style mansion located on the border of her territory with the others. Several good-looking servants stood by the pool chairs which were lined up neatly behind him. A bottle of wine in one's hand, while the other held a tray containing some tasty-looking snacks. The breeze caressed her face and hair. Every now and then, she sipped the glass of wine in her hand. Her eyes were fixed on the sea which looked calm, but her mind was not there. After what she saw via her Spyder, she prepared to receive any direct attack from Letos. But nothing came to her. It confused her. What made her confused even more, according to her Spyder's information, Letos never left Licheri after the conference ended. At least that was Lilieth's order. Unfortunately, her Spyder couldn't infiltrate his mansion to confirm his whereabouts and Letos rarely made a public appearance after that order. So he could have escaped via a secret passage or something. It was Letos after all. He had a lot of tricks on his sleeves. Still… Syntyche was confused about why Letos let her go after she saw his face with her Spyder. Was it a mockery? Or was it a trap? Wasn't he afraid that she would tell this to the others? Including the king? 'Ah right… He knew I wouldn't be able to tell Damon. He has my documents after all,' she thought as she took another sip of her wine. Even though she could deny it, she was sure she would still lose in this case. Letos had proof. A physical document with her signature. While what she could give was only information. She could have let Damon read h mind. But after all her scheming to attack the human world and overthrow Damon, it was tantamount to suicide. That put her in a dilemma. “Curse you, Letos…” she hissed. On the other hand, there was a possibility that the attacker was not the real Letos, but someone else. A group that wanted to destroy the alliance and their plans to rule the human world. But who? Was that the king? If that was true, why didn't he confront them directly? Instead, it could be the real Letos. He purposely released Syntyche to make her and the others think this was all a trap and he was just the victim. But the question was, why did he do it? Wasn't this all his idea? The more she thought about it, the more confused she became. But she was pretty sure it should be either the king or Letos. 'Wait a sec... it could be another demon.' A demon who wanted to take over the demon lords' territories by making them kill each other. But again, who? Not a single demon lord's name came to her mind. Lately, the only demon with huge ambition was Letos alone. He always reasoned that he did it to avenge Erebus, while all of them knew he only wanted to fulfill his ego since he had tasted the throne once when Erebus entrusted this world to him during his absence a thousand years ago. Syntyche extended the glass to the side and closed her eyes, feeling the wind against her skin, hoping it would give her a bit of comfort between her confusion. A tired exhaled out of her mouth. While her other hand pinched the bridge of her nose. She was mentally exhausted from everything that had happened and had been restless since the attack. But no matter how hard she tried to find other evidence or investigate, she found nothing. Likewise with the attackers. All of them disappeared without a trace after Beel lost all his documents. Upon her gesture, swiftly, her servant immediately refilled the wine. While they could guess what Syntyche feeling, neither of them made their voices. Her temper was getting bad lately due to her stress. So what they could do was just serve her as best they could. After pulling her hand, her gaze shifted to the wine glass in her hand. Her eyes stared blankly at it. Her brain was trying to figure out what she should do, but no matter how hard she tried she couldn't find a good way out. 'I hope that Zatan and Beel know something,' she thought before finishing the wine in one gulp. The two of them were on their way here and should be arriving at any time. As for her, she had prepared everything. Especially Beel's needs since he was the neediest one of the three of them. Without enough food, he would be the same as a grumpy spoiled kid. As expected, soon she could feel two powerful demonic powers approaching her. She quickly recognized the owners. “Time to welcome two of my companions,” she muttered before she turned and entered the mansion.
