Chapter 562: The King and The Prince's First Press Conference IThe Incubus System Chapter 562. The King and The Prince's First Press Conference I
After a good shower, I got ready for the conference. Even though I could create my clothes from my Demon's Clothes, what I needed to prepare was my very first speech. At the last conference, I didn't say much except for a few important things and when I disguised myself as Lord Damon, it was Lilieth who did most of the talking. While the upcoming conference would concentrate more on me. So I had to prepare myself as best I could.
As for the bath threesome, it never happened. I was too nervous about the upcoming conference so I was not interested in having sex with them. Besides, I was just joking, to begin with.
At my office, I walked back and forth restlessly in the middle of the room with a paper in my hand. My mouth mumbled about whatever was written there. I felt like a student who panicked because he hadn't studied for the exam. My restlessness made everyone sitting on the sofa near me frown. Including Licheri who was sitting on Nefaris' lap. Rather than a pearl or a milk jelly, he looked like slime lazing around.
"Cut it out. You gave me a headache," complained Lord Damon who was sitting on the single sofa with his cool pose. His eyes followed wherever I walked.
"Relax. It's just a speech, dear," Lilieth, who was sitting by Nefaris added, trying to calm me down. Rather than tense, she opened the document I had just finished this morning. From her casual movements, I could tell she didn't check it but only played around.

"Relax? I only have 15 minutes left! How can I relax?" I half yelled in panic. I knew this was just a clarification and I shouldn't worry too much about it. But after this clarification, the demon world would see me as the crown prince of the dark dimension officially. The future king of this world. At least I wanted to show a good quality on my first impression. Moreover, Lord Damon was here and I didn't know what he would say. Who knew he would treat me as a kid in public? It was the same as humiliating me.
Even though I warned him, I knew no one could stop him if he wanted to. So instead of arguing with him, I decided to counter him with my speech. After all, I had this prepared a few days ago, it was just that I didn't have the time to study it.
"I don't understand, what's a big deal about this? Aren't you guys just going to introduce him to this world?" said Nefaris in a nonchalant tone. Her fingers spun her strands of hair playfully.
"It's an official conference, Nefaris. It won't end that easily," I reminded her.
"Not to mention, the reporters have been waiting for this for a long time. They will bombard him with thousands of questions," added Lord Damon before he sighed. "Besides, you've seen those reporters right? It seems this is going to be a long night."
He was right.
The time had shown past midnight. I thought this would be an easy thing for us due to the sleepiness, but the reporters who had gathered in front of the city hall signified something else. It seemed that my mysterious appearance had created thousands of questions in their heads.
As I tried to shove everything I wrote in my head, a knocking sound came from the direction of the door accompanied by the door opening.
A lizard demon in an office suit with a body smaller and shorter than mine came into the room. His skin was pale white. His spiky hair was indigo. The thin membrane between his fingers and the tail sticking out of his trousers indicated his status as a lizard demon. He wore glasses with green lenses to cover his asymmetrical eyes. It was rare eyes that made me recruit him to be my assistant. It could detect an object's attribute whatever it was. Food, drinks, paper, accessories, simply everything. Including items I couldn't check with my skills. His name was Curtis.
Behind him, a giant demon followed. He was in his humanoid form, but he was about 2 meters in height and had a muscular body. Very different from the previous lizard demon. His short hair was brown. His eyes were all white but he could see everything just fine. But what made me recruit him was that he could feel his surroundings only with the aura flow. Just like Curtis, he wore an office suit. His name was Leon.
Both of them approached me and bowed to greet the three demon lords before returning their attention to me.
"All ready, My Lord," Curtis reported.
I nodded repeatedly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Okay." I put the sheet of paper in my hand at the desk and took a couple of deep breaths. Soon I felt better, just better since the nervousness was still lingering in my heart.
Ignoring what I felt, I turned to Lord Damon.
"Shall we go now?" I said.
He answered me with another smirk. From his gaze, I could tell he was still laughing at my nervousness but he didn't show it.
"Let's go." He stood up from his seat and walked towards the exit. Followed by Lilieth and Nefaris.
Rather than tailing him, I walked by his side, swallowing whatever I felt.
Once we just got out of the office, suddenly, without stopping his steps, Lord Damon spoke again.
"Just relax. You are already good as you are. Keep your composure and dignity. Remember you are my son. A royal. All of those demons are under you. So act like one," he encouraged me without shifting his gaze at me.
I glanced at him. His words surprised me. But somehow it soothed me. Those simple things calmed me down. Unconsciously, a smile bloomed on my lips.
"Got it." Then I turned my gaze forward. "Thank you, dad." This time, it was my words that made him smile.
