The Incubus System Chapter 565. The Spider Queen's Worries
The Spider Queen's PoV
A cynical scoff came out of her mouth once she heard how Damian, the crown prince of the dark dimension, the new ruler of Licheri city, framed Letos mercilessly. He even said that everything that happened in the other three cities was Letos' doing and showed the Café and the Game Center's CCTV footage.
'I don't know if I should call him smart or cunning…' she thought. She was sitting on a simple single sofa. Her eyes were fixed on the TV screen in front of her. With that simple explanation and proof, that royal incubus could trick all demons with it easily.
Of course, it was an easy thing, especially since he had destroyed Letos' reputation from the start. Not to mention Letos himself was a big wild and the succubus hated him so much. With Damian's status as the king's son and the son of the queen of succubus, Lilieth, it was easy for him to gain the demons' trust. Not to mention his reputation was clean.

After all, she guessed that the lust demon kind had wanted a change of ruler long ago. To make it worse, what she, Zatan, and Beel did in Licheri City was tantamount to helping Damian to gain the lust demons' trust.
"What a bastard…" she hissed in annoyance, gritting her teeth. Even though he mentioned Letos was the only demon lord involved in the rebellion, she didn't plan on making any moves. She even didn't dare send her Spyder to the capital or Licheri since that could backfire on her and get her caught. So what she could do was stay in her hiding place.
Rather than a luxury villa, she was in a simple cabin in the middle of the forest in a remote wild territory. There wasn't much there other than a simple fireplace, a set of sofas, and a place that resembled a kitchen and a bed. The TV and her phone were the only things that connected her to the modern world since everything in that place was more like the furniture and equipment of the medieval era.
Also, that electronic devices could work due to her Demonic power so she could stay there as long as she wanted. That place was the house where she spent her childhood before she became a demon queen.
The surroundings were only filled with boring trees with fruits. Some wild demons roamed around but that was not a problem for her since she had spread a lot of traps. While her Spyders would act as bait to lure the wild demons.
Since she didn't bring any servants with her, she used her Spyder to do many things. From looking for food, drinks also provided protection when she was resting, all done by her Spyder. So her life had not changed much more than her previous life. It was just that she couldn't shake off the boredom since there wasn't much she could do here.
Apart from that she kinda missed her collection, either her male slaves or her diamonds. And this place lacked entertainment. After all, it had been a week since she arrived here and Azrael, the lord of Wrath, hadn't replied to her messages, even though she had sent them through her Spyder three days ago.
In frustration, Syntyche threw the back of her head behind the sofa and let out a long sigh. Still, her gaze was on the TV screen since she didn't want to miss any of their clarifications or words, but her thoughts weren't there. What was on her mind was how to save herself.
"What should I do? What should I do?" she muttered repeatedly. In a desperate time, she might have to go to that incubus. But that was if she had no other choice. On the other hand, that incubus could have killed her and said she was planning to betray the king easily since he already had proof of her crimes too.
In addition, she also realized the incubus hadn't discussed any incidents in Licheri City. Letos had all the evidence about how the three of them messed up the city. That incubus should have it too. If he decided to use it, then execution would wait for her.
"What took you so long, Azrael?" she grumbled. Her Spyder had placed the letter on his desk. Azrael was even working there when the Spyder put it down. But that Lord of Wrath simply got rid of it and said thank you. Indeed she realized how busy he was, but it had been three days. He shouldn't be that busy, right?
"Please don't tell me he forgot my letter and his assistant ended up throwing it away," she grumbled again, thinking the worst of it all. Her restlessness was driving her crazy. If that was the case then he would have to write another letter and send it again.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOn the other hand, she didn't know if it was polite or not. She wasn't close to Azrael and had only met him a couple of times. All of it happened a long time ago. There was a high chance that he would be angry if she forced him to immediately answer her letter. Moreover, asking him to meet out of sudden after she had not contacted him for hundreds of years sounded fishy.
"I think I should write him another letter." Wasting no time, she flicked her finger, ordering her Spyder to write another letter.
On the table in front of her, the little spiders gathered and formed a hideous black pile before they took a pen and scribbled the ink on paper. They wrote down the reason why she suddenly asked him to meet and said that she didn't have any ill intent towards him. She thought through every word written in the letter carefully and made sure he didn't notice her problem. She was afraid that if she mentioned it from the start, he would reject her for sure. Moreover, she was sure that Azrael already knew about the crown prince from the news.
The news was finished, and so was the letter. After she checked it for a while, she decided to send it.
"Send it to Splein City," she ordered. The Spyders deftly put it in an envelope before one of them carried it out of the cabin through the window.
As she looked at the letter away from her, she prayed.
'I hope he will help me...'
