76 Chapter 74. Her Kindness
Ethan's PoV
My hands moved to open the leather belts that tied my legs. While Emma walked over to the sofa as she looked away from me. From her reaction, I could guess it was her first time seeing a man's. That's why I asked her to wait.
When I was able to break free, I took my clothes that were scattered on the floor and put them on. My eyes took a glance at Emma who was sitting, with her back facing me and noticed her anxious vividly, since her index finger kept moving, tapping her lap quickly, indicating she wasn't comfortable here.
I sped up my movements to put on my clothes faster and glanced at Mia and Pearl. Even though I knew Emma was waiting for me and wanted to leave this place as soon as possible, but I could not possibly leave them like that.
"I'll move them to the next room," I said as I buttoned the last button on my shirt.
She didn't answer, but I was sure she heard me since I said it with a clear voice.
I carried Mia and Pearl in turns and carried them into the next room. If I was an ordinary human, I was sure I would have a hard time bringing them along, but thanks to my demon power I could carry them easily. Although I admitted it, I had a hard time carrying Pearl because of her tentacles. But somehow, I managed to get both of them onto the bed.
I let out a sigh of relief. Then I took a blanket to cover them since they were still naked and pressed a button on an electronic device that was hanging on the wall near the door.
"Lady Pearl and Miss Mia will sleep here again. Please take care of them."
"Okay," a voice answered me.
After that, I stepped out of the room and walked over to Emma on the sofa.
"Sorry for keeping you waiting."
Emma, who was sitting on the sofa, turned to face me in doubt.
"It's okay. I've got my clothes on," I told her.
After hearing my words, she turned to face me faster.
"I'm sorry for my lateness. Do you need anything before we go?" I asked.
"I don't need anything," she said straight to the point. She rose from her seat.
"Let's go." Then she walked towards the exit.
"Okay." I walked following her.
We walked through the dance hall in silence, ignoring the guests who were staring at us in wonder. My mind was filled with questions, especially how did she know I was here and even dared to barge in with her demon hunter uniform. Although I didn't know the demon hunter association's rules clearly, but I believed breaking in to pick me up with her uniform was a violation.
As our feet stepped out of the club and down the Ledred District's bustling street, I tried to break the silence between us.
"How do you know I was there?" I asked curiously. I remembered I never said anything about my job or this place to her.
"I accidentally saw you enter that club."
She didn't answer.
'Looks like she's really mad that I was late,' I thought. I glanced at her, but she's already tidied up her hood so I didn't know what her expression was.
As our feet walked away from the Ledred District and I was about to use my observation skill to check her emotions but suddenly she opened her mouth and stopped her steps.
"Is that your reason why you don't want to join the Demon Hunter Association?"
My steps also stopped.
"What do you mean?" I frowned in confusion.
"You refused to join because of your profession? Because you considered yourself unworthy to become a demon hunter?"
"I have my own reason for that. To be sure it has nothing to do with my profession," I replied firmly. The only reason why I didn't want to join was because I was a demon. Even I only knew a little information regarding the association, but according to my knowledge, the demon hunter association's members were the strongest magic wielders in the Vihrasil continent. Their magic power was stronger than the military. Yes, in this modern era, there were only a few people who still trained their magic power. Some fighters and martial artists usually had Power Boost skill to increase their strength, the military usually had Magic Armor skill to protect their bodies, the demon hunters had Mana Strike and Holy Chain to kill demons, while the police depended on their magic gun and magic shield. For the others ... If the skills weren't from their bloodlines like Mia's Medusa Eyes and Pearl's Sea Communications then almost no one would have them.
"Really? Isn't it because they forced you to do it?" Her disbelief was clear from the tone of her voice.
"They didn't force me. After all it was just a game." Looks like she misunderstood but no matter how I tried to explain, I was not sure it could explain what she saw.
"Just a game?" Again, her disbelief could be heard clearly from the tone of her voice.
"They treat you as they like, but you say it was just a game?" she said again. This time there was a trace of worry to her tone.
I sighed as I didn't have any words to explain it since it was really just a game and I was enjoying it. Even though what other people saw was two monsters raped a poor man but actually, the monster in that room was me. Even Mia and Pearl collapsed in exhaustion after having one round of sex with me since they couldn't endure my Demonic Erection.
"It's my choice. I am the one who chose this profession and I enjoy it." Kraken's descendant had so many 'legs' and Lamia had a strong tail and a wild sex habit. To say there was a human who could handle both of them at the same time and enjoy it sounded like nonsense. But of course it would all make sense after I confessed my identity as an incubus.
She fell silent again.
"Emma, I'm grateful for your concern but I'm fin ---"
She suddenly cut off my sentence.
"Leave that profession and join me. I'm sure with your strength, you can become a top hunter in no time. There are lots of demons roaming around right now, I'm sure you will get more money from it."
I sighed again.
"It's not all about money ---"
But she cut my words again.
"If it's not enough I can add it for you."
I was speechless in shock after hearing her words since she wanted to help me this far. Even though this was a misunderstanding but to be honest I was very happy, it meant she cared for me but of course I couldn't accept it.
"I'm sorry, I can't accept it. After all, I'm already under a contract. I don't want to break it." I purposely mentioned about the contract because I didn't want to argue with her anymore, especially about her invitation to join the Demon Hunter Association.
"Contract?" She was silent for a moment.
"Is there no other way to cancel the contract? How much do you have to pay to cancel it?" she asked impatiently.
"I can't cancel it. After all, as you saw Pearl is not someone who needs money." Everyone knew how rich a Kraken's descendant was, so I didn't think I needed to explain it any further.
She lowered her head.
"Are you going to let them treat you like that forever?" This time I could notice traces of sadness in her voice.
"Like I said it was just a game and we just played it today," I tried to calm her down. Looks like she really worried about me.
"Is it true?" she said in disbelief.
"But what I've heard from other people is different. I heard that Lady Pearl likes to tie up male prostitutes and play with them."
"It was, but not anymore. They aren't bad people and they didn't **** me. It was really just a game, " I tried to convince her once again. I could say this because I hadn't found anyone at the table in the past few days and I was sure she was already exhausted after playing with me. She even modified her 'torture table' because she wanted to play without hurting me.
Emma lifted her head slightly but I still couldn't see her face clearly.
"I really don't understand why you are defending them even though they treat you like that."
"Emma ... I really can't leave this profession. As I said before, it's my choice. I was the one who chose this profession and I enjoy it. I hope you can understand. Thank you for your offer and your kindness, but I can't accept it," I said in a calmer voice.
Emma lowered her head again and turned around.
"I hope you will reconsider my invitation. You have no future in such a profession."
"I know ..." I replied simply. But actually, for an incubus like me, there was nothing more suitable than this profession since I could fill my DP and make money at the same time.
"If you need my help just say it. I don't want you to act strong as nothing happened to you." After those words left her mouth, she walked away from me.
My smile appeared.
"Thank you. But I'm fine," I muttered. And my feet also stepped to follow her.
