Kapitel 53: Chapter 51. (Un)quiet Coffee Time
The Incubus System Chapter 51. (Un)quiet Coffee Time
"Is that still hurt?" I asked Olivia who was still tidying her clothes in front of me. She had cleaned her blood with a tissue and threw it into the sanitary bin. Meanwhile, I also already tidied my clothes.
"A little," she said with a flushed face.
"Do I need to take you to the infirmary?" I asked worriedly. When I did it with Pearl and Diamond, I assumed they were ready for it because their goal was to find a man that they wanted. As for Olivia, even though this was her wish she never thought of doing it with me today. I don't know why she decided to do it but based on her love meter which was the same as Celia, I think she has been in love with me for a long time.
A chuckle leaked out of her mouth as she saw my worried expression.
"Is there something wrong?" I asked in confusion.
She shook her head side to side and put her hands around my neck.
"Thanks for worrying me, but I'm fine."
Hearing the words 'fine' only made my worries grow even more because I knew with her house's condition she couldn't be okay. My hands moved around her waist.
"Olivia ... If you need someone to talk to, please contact me," I said sincerely.
A smile began to develop on her face.
"Yes, I will definitely contact you." Her face drew closer and we kissed again. I just tilted my head to deepen our kiss, but a message ringtone sounded.
* Ding! *
We broke our kiss.
"That sounds like mine," Olivia said as she took her bag and checked her cellphone. Her eyes immediately widened.
"Oh no! My class is almost starting." Her hand stuffed her cellphone to her bag and unlocked the stall.
"See you later."
"See ya."
She quickly ran out of the toilet in a hurry.
I took my bag and walked out of the stall.
'I wonder if I should go straight to Diamond's office.' But I postponed my intention and decided to go back to Cafeteria since Diamond has not contacted me yet. It would be strange if a student came to her office without being asked.
'Then, I will grab a coffee.'
------
As soon as Larry saw me enter the Cafeteria, he got up from his seat.
"Ethan! You're still alive!" he said in his trademark dramatic tone. A relieved smile crossed his face.
"Why are you still here?" My feet stepped toward him.
"I'm worried about you!" he replied. I passed him and sat across him.
"If anything happens to you my grades will be in danger," he continued with an innocent grin.
I sighed and stared at him with a flat stare.
' I'm confused with myself why I can be friends with him for so long.'
"Oh, I also protected your food," he reasoned, pointing at my leftover soggy chicken wrap.
"It's barely left." I brought my tray, dumped the leftover, put it on the counter and turned to Larry.
"Would you like some coffee?"
He rose from his seat.
"I'll buy it."
"Okay." I accepted his offer without hesitation and returned to my seat, while he went to the counter to buy some coffee. I'm used to this since he always acts like this when he needs something from me.
My gaze shifted to the window and caught Emma sitting with a man on a bench. Unfortunately, I can't see that man's face since he sat with his back facing me.
'Weren't she and Olivia in the same class? '
I watched her for a moment and her status appeared above her head.
[Name: Emma Lunaspark]
[Level 6]
[HP: 112/148]
[MP: 34/58]
'Looks like her health has improved.'
A second later the man's status appeared above his head.
[Name: Theo Ragelight]
[Level 10]
[HP: 195/195]
[MP: 82/82]
'Theo? What is he doing here? ' I realized his profession when I observed him a few days ago but as far as I know, he isn't Diamond College's student. So I could only come to the conclusion that something important is going on.
'Does it have something to do with yesterday's incident?' But my mind said something else instead. Somehow even though I knew he was my father's disciple but his annoying attitude made me think badly of him. I immediately cast my thoughts away, since I knew I shouldn't think like that and turned my gaze to another direction. Actually, I was quite curious about what they were talking about since I caught Emma's serious expression.
"Here's your coffee," said Larry, passing one of the cups to me and sitting in his chair.
"Thank you." I took my coffee from his hand.
"What are you looking at?" asked Larry, throwing his gaze toward the window. His eyes moved from side to side in curiosity. I didn't answer and let him find out for himself as I sipped my coffee indifferently.
Shortly, his gaze was fixed on one point as his face turned sour. Looks like he already knows what I saw earlier.
"Hey! What's wrong with you?" I startled him.
"Nothing." He turned his gaze to me.
"What were you talking about with Olivia?"
"It's a secret," I teased, putting on an ignorant face.
"Tsk!" he clicked his tongue in annoyance.
"At least tell me the outline." His curiosity was clearly visible on his face.
"The point is she won't act like that anymore," I explained as shortly as I can.
A happy smile blossomed on Larry's face.
"It's good to hear that!"
"Are you happy that no one will take your grade's saviour?" I teased.
"That's just one of my reasons." His hand took his coffee and drank it. A sip later, he frowned and put his coffee back down as he stuck out his tongue.
"That's hot!" he complained.
I let out a small laugh seeing his stupid expression.
"Is there another reason?"
"Of course!" he said, waving his hand to his tongue.
"You know, it will be awful if after you're in a relationship and she rules your life. We can't hang out anymore or do stupid things like usual."
Well, I understand his worries since Larry only has a few friends because of his dramatic behaviour. Now almost all of his friends are in relationships, they forget about him and spend more time with their girlfriends.
"If you are lonely why don't you find a girlfriend?" I asked. Although he isn't handsome, but his face is not bad either and he has good posture, there should be a woman who likes him.
"I already have one, you know," he declared.
My eyes widened in shock.
"You already have a girlfriend?" I confirmed once again. I remember his relationship status was single when I checked it earlier.
A proud smile returned to his face.
"Of course I have, I'll introduce you tomorrow," he said confidently.
'Is his status wrong? Or could it be --- '
But my mind was interrupted by a male voice.
"Larry, can we talk for a moment?"
We turned our eyes to the origin of the voice. Theo and Emma approached us with serious faces.
'What happened?' I knew I couldn't ask directly so I decided to use my observation skill to check her emotion.
'Observation.'
[Observation skill succeeded.]
[Name: Emma Lunaspark] [Age: 18]
[Level 6] [Race: Elf]
[HP: 112/148] [MP: 34/58]
[Skills: Holy Chain lv 2, Mana Strike lv 3]

[Love meter: 0/10]
[Condition: Normal]
[Weakness: Chest, Neck, Head, Ears]
[Talent: Elf's Blessing. ]
[Relationship: Single]
[Profession: Demon Hunter, College Student.]
From Emma's emotions, I could tell that something important was going on.
'Too bad I couldn't find out more.'
Larry immediately got up from his seat in panic as soon as they stopped beside us.
"Ethan ... This is --- engh ..."
"It's okay, just go." I know he must be panicking because he never told me that he knew Emma, even though he had known that I liked her.
"Sorry to interrupt your conversation," said Emma, bowing slightly to show me her apology. Whereas Theo didn't even give me a glance, his attitude was the same as when he met Damian for the first time.
I turned to them and smiled.
"Don't worry about that."
"Ahh ... Ehmm ... I'll definitely explain everything later. Just don't mad at me, okay?" he said in a panic.
"It's okay. I'm not mad at you." Of course I understand, it's the association rules. I'm sure something big has happened to the point where they have to show that they know each other.
"Hurry up, retarded snail!" Theo said impatiently.
Larry gave him an irritated look for a moment before turning back to me.
"See ya later."
I just responded with a smile.
He turned and the three of them walked toward the Cafeteria exit. My eyes were still fixed on them and caught Larry's shock face after Theo showed his Demon Compass.
'I see ... There's another crack,' I thought as I finished the rest of my coffee. I got up from my seat and followed them as I opened my status.

'Close.'
I checked all my skill descriptions on my way back to Cafeteria earlier. That's why I already know what skills I need to take and since I have to help them without getting caught I have to use ranged attacks that depend on my INT. And because I don't know how many demons we will face later I chose to raise my Demonic Spike which is an area attack skill instead of my Hell Thunder which only can hit a single target.
'I just hope my opponent isn't the Vengeful Imp. Because if so, I will have no choice but to face him in my Demonic Form. '
