2025-12-14 05:00:11Desmond woke with a start. His eyes opened. He was in a ruined room. He immediately activated his Demon form. The DP within him felt cold and stable at ninety percent, an unexpected boon from Mentor’s intervention. Desmond was no longer dizzy, no longer weak.
Desmond rose, his body feeling heavy yet solid. His eyes, now glowing deep purple again, surveyed the surroundings. The ceiling-high windows were cracked in a giant spiderweb pattern, revealing a distorted view of the city. Dust motes drifted in the air, glittering in the light of a broken lamp.
Amel was holding Olivia on the floor, leaning the girl’s body against the chaotic luxury bed. Amel looked shaken, but her physical body was not seriously injured. Olivia, on the other hand, was coughing, her face deathly pale and dirty from the nano-bomb explosion she had triggered herself, which had destroyed part of the wall rather than harming her mother. The small bomb was apparently just a startling, light

Mia and Rina Unite
“Kael merged with the Siren? DP from all of us?”Desmond turned to look at the two Anomalies.“TAKE IT, DESMOND!” Mia screamed. “THIS IS OUR IMPERATIVE!”Mia didn’t wait for a verbal answer. As a Lamia, her instincts were driven by the desire and need to protect her power source. She lunged toward Desmond, hugging him tightly. Her dark, scaled Lamia tail wrapped around Desmond’s calves at high speed, locking the Incubus down.In the cramped elevator space, Rina did the same. She pressed against Desmond’s back, her cold hands gripping the sides of his waist, channeling energy through physical contact. Unlike the brutal Mia, Rina moved with precision, her fingers tracing the veins in Desmond’s waist, forcing him to absorb the energy in a focused manner. The three of them were trapped in one small space, creating a suffocating energy triangle.Lyra and Kael were ahead, Sella in the Charm Demo
The Secret Key
“The Kraken isn't just a sea creature, Desmond. We command fluids. My power comes from the water, from the sea. And my main headquarters isn't just this penthouse—it's the city's water filtration system,” Amel explained. “Kael wanted to use my Kraken, my dominion over water, to control the underground gate leading to the Valerius fortress. And he managed to extract that data from the vessel he captured. Kael also left a shadow around the window. A shadow that enveloped Sella.”Desmond understood now. Sella was merely the secondary sacrifice, bait to drain Edi's emotions, not the primary lure Edi had thought. Kael's target had always been Amel, the resource master, and now he knew the Kraken's true headquarters.“Lyra,” Desmond muttered. “Lyra betrayed us to gain access to the Void artifact.”“Lyra is just a singer, Darling,” Amel shook her head. “Lyra came to break the seal that my Kraken cl

Mentor and the Emergency Stabilizer
Desmond started the car engine. They sped along the night streets. The Main Finance Building loomed high, a glass tower reflecting the city lights.“I’ve never been to that penthouse,” Olivia said, her voice slightly nervous.“I have, often,” Desmond replied. “It was our luxurious date spot. And there, I will show you why your mother is crazy about me.”They arrived at the underground parking lot of the Main Finance Building. The place was silent, illuminated only by flickering neon lights.“We enter from here,” Desmond said. “This elevator goes directly to Amel’s penthouse.”They entered the elevator, and Desmond pressed the button for the hundredth floor. Inside the fast-moving elevator, Olivia looked at Desmond.“Are you really an Incubus?” she asked, her voice low.“Yes,” Desmond answered. “And you, you are the perfect bait.&rdquo
Kraken Counterattack and Siren's Betrayal
“Welcome, Desmond,” Kael said, his smile gentle and deadly. “I knew you would come. And you brought a pleasant surprise.”Kael looked at Olivia. “Amel’s daughter? An interesting choice. Now, where is the artifact?”“I didn't bring any artifact,” Desmond replied, stepping forward. “I only brought myself. And I came to take Amel back.”Kael laughed softly. “You think you can fight me with zero DP, Demon?”“My DP isn't empty,” Desmond smirked, radiating a bit of Sella’s chaotic DP. “I have DP from forbidden jealousy. Want to try?”Kael flinched. “Nephilim energy? Damn it! You use your sister for DP?”“Nothing is too taboo for me, Kael,” Desmond retorted. “Now, release Amel. Or I'll destroy you.”Kael shook his head. He approached Amel, his silver knife touching Amel's neck. “I won't release
The Kraken Lair and the War Plan
Mia, Rina, Olivia, and Desmond gathered at a safe house. The atmosphere was tense, filled with anxiety and churning DP. Desmond, who was now back in his Edi form, stared at a map of the city displayed on the wall. The city's financial headquarters. A towering skyscraper, the heart of the city’s economy.“The city’s financial headquarters,” Rina said, her voice analytical. “That’s the Kraken Lair. Where Amel keeps her biggest assets. Kael wouldn't kidnap her without a clear purpose.”“Kael wants Amel’s secret chip,” Desmond interjected. “Amel said she hid the chip in her penthouse. Kael wants to use it to destroy Amel financially.”“What chip?” Olivia asked, confused.Desmond looked at Olivia. “Your mother is paranoid. She never trusts banks. She hides a backup data chip that can control all her assets. Amel is a Kraken; she needs full control.”
