The Incubus System Chapter 575. Talk or Fight II
She let out a mocking chuckle upon my sudden offer.
"Pardon me. You want me to make a contract with you? Did I hear it wrong?" she sneered.
"No, you didn't. I want to make sure that you are telling the truth and the contract will ensure it. Besides, you have tried to rebel once, I need to make sure you won't do it again. A simple agreement won't do the job. So it's either be my woman or be ashes."
Rather than Syntyche, it was Nefaris who answered me.
"I have also made a contract with you even though I never rebelled. Isn't that unfair?" she complained with a pout.
I turned to her.
"I need a guarantee that you won't suck me dry when you drink my blood. And I don't want to end up like the old demon in your prison either," I explained.
After a short pause, Nefaris shrugged and spoke again.
"Make sense."
I returned my gaze to The Spider Queen.
"So what's your answer?"
A scoff of mockery came out of her mouth.
"Isn't that obvious? "She clicked her tongue as she just realized something. "Oh, right. You are new. Of course, you don't know about me. Let me tell you something. I won't make a contract with anyone."
"What happened in the past still hasn't disappeared from your memory, isn't it?" I replied, showing I know what she meant.
"Ah, it turns out you already know it. Good then. And yeah, it will never be lost from my memory," she declared. "All men are the same anyway," she ended it with a classic complaint from the broken heart girl.
"So you have tried them all? Why I can't remember when you tried me?" I replied with a scoff.
"Sorry, Your Highness. I'm not interested in breaking my heart twice," she claimed. She emphasized that 'Your Highness' as a sign that she didn't give a fuck with my status.
Okay, this was not easy. Even though we managed to corner her, she refused my contract. In a bad case, we had to kill her, but I tried to find another way out.
"Sorry, Syntyche. Without a contract, we can't let you go," Lord Damon threatened. Even though he hadn't made any moves, from the atmosphere, which was getting heavier, I could tell he was ready to attack her.
Syntyche didn't hesitate to put on her attack stance in response.
I glanced at them both in turn.
'This is bad...' I thought. We had to prepare for the worst since killing Syntyche was the same as making the Spider demons turn against us. Unlike when I defeated Letos since I was a lust demon just like Letos, I could simply take over his throne. But if we killed her, all spider demons would turn against us. This would be another war.
In addition, her Spyder would also be useful for spying on Zatan and Beel. But based on her desperate act, I was pretty sure that she didn't lie to us.
Suddenly, my first thought gave me an idea. I didn't know if she would accept it or not but it was worth a try for sure.
A mocking chuckle came out of my mouth. It made everyone turn to me. Especially Syntyche who gave me a displeased look.
"You are a queen. Yet you are so selfish. You only think about yourself rather than your people," I mocked her mercilessly.
As I suspected, that simple sentence made her angry.
"What do you mean? Did you know what happened? Did you know what my ex-husband did to me? He made me kill my kind!" she shouted in rage.
"But if you choose to fight with us here, the result will be worse than that!" I declared it with a firm tone.
A chuckle of frustration escaped her mouth.
"I beg to differ. I'd rather die than let someone use me to kill my kind again," she said once her chuckle disappeared. It seemed she was ready to die.
"If I say I won't do it, I bet you won't believe it. Although I already proved it," I turned to Nefaris, showing what I meant before I returned my gaze to her. "So I will make you think about the domino effect of your death. Your city will be in chaos. The spider demons will fight each other for your throne and your loyalists will attack us. Since Zatan and Beel have left you, I'm sure you already know the result," I explained. Even though it sounded like a threat, it was the most likely thing that happened to her people after her death.
It made her silent and deep in thought. If losing a third of her kind was almost driving her insane, she should be more afraid of this. The spider demons could be extinct because of her choice.
During her silence, Lord Damon's voice suddenly came into my head.
'Nice move. You're smarter than I thought,' he said proudly.
I glanced at him. 'Thanks, Dad...' I said in a flat tone.
"So, what's your answer?" I asked again.
"This is not an easy choice. I need time to think." It was either a request or just a trick to buy time.
"Fine, I will give you a minute to think," I replied. We had to settle this quickly. The more she thought she might find another way out or maybe another chance to escape.
"It's not enough. I need more time," she complained.
"You need more time but we have a party to attend. So make it quick," said Lord Damon impatiently. I bet he already realized my strategy and decided to help me.
"The answer is only yes or no. I've given you the reasons and all the risks. That should be easier for you," I added.
Syntyche bit her lips briefly and deep in thought. Logically, her death would lead the spider demons into bigger chaos so she shouldn't have rejected me. After a few seconds of internal struggle, she finally agreed.
"Fine, I agree," she said with a heavy heart.
