Incubus' Blood Harem-Chapter 183 Foreshadowing?

[Back in the forest]

Medusa clenched Kayden's arm reflexively, not because the succubus was afraid; instead her protective instincts initiated the act.

'Is she afraid? I doubt she is, though. Medusa is a succubus, they are a powerful kind. What is she terrified of?''

The assumption crossed Kayden's mind however the very thought made him ponder over his own power level. He was sure that if nothing else he had figured out how to use his powers at the right moment. And the demon within him had been aiding him ever since it appeared in his head.

But he still had a long way to go to handle his powers and to control the outbursts. However for that Kayden needed Medusa and Malcolm's help, but it seems that the succubus had some other kind of things to deal with at first.

The succubus was pretending to be scared only to snag Kayden's attention. So she could divert his focus from Lydia's absence towards his herself. How could she let go of that moment when Medusa could always send Malcolm away to look out for Lydia.

On the other hand Kayden was trying to do an analysis of his own powers. He did not want to be dependent on both of them even though they were now present by his side to help him. The very thoughts made him ponder upon where he stood compared to both of them in terms of strength.

He wanted to find Lydia on his own but assuming that the mutants in the forest might be outnumbered he had to call them. It was the only reason Kayden felt the need to call them despite having the demon to help him with powers. It was obvious that the demon had something to do with the current changes occurring in him.

But hereby I ask you, is it possible that the damnation Coulter was talking about could be related to that demon's presence? After all, he promised Kayden immense power and immortality. He was the one who remained by his side ever since Kayden had awakened his powers.

Thus it could be possible that he must be the reason for the prophecy coming true. No doubt the demon was not there to help Kayden without taking anything in return. Right? The entity made it obvious that he would overtake Kayden's body. But due to some reason the seal over his core saved Kayden.

But was it possible that he would overtake his body in the near future and then the prophecy would come true? Kayden would lose his sanity and his mind, body and soul would be claimed by that demon as Kayden will just become a regressive part within his own body?

However the similar thoughts made him conscious about his current state once again. Kayden knew that he was lacking control over his powers but still he could not help himself from overthinking about the whole matter.

'What if Medusa and Macolm, both have to use a small part of their strength to fight off these mutants. Then where do I stand? How will I survive any upcoming fight? Oh lord! I have to get stronger, that mutant was just a weak one so I could fight it. But what about a swarm? Oh god!'

Kayden looked heavenwards while having a strange gut feeling. Something assured him that the wheel of chaos had spun, and he had to decide wisely sooner now. He knew that the mutants were coming sooner and there was no way the three of them could fight them all. They needed Lydia too and perhaps Coulter's help too.

Medusa and Malcolm were trying to pick up some signals in the air while trying to track anything which could indicate the upcoming of a swarm of mutants. After all, Kayden just killed one and there was no way his cries and wailing did not alert the others.

It was not long enough when the rustling of the bushes happened again and snagged their attention. Medusa and Malcolm wanted to take the charge this time to protect Kayden. Thus they stepped ahead, whereas Kayden had decided not to be a burden anymore to both of them.

Thus the boy shifted his gaze towards the bushes and stretched left leg out to prepare himself to attack. Kayden was determined now that he had to survive no matter what, running was always never the solution.

The rustling sound gradually increased while the three of them prepared to fight, since their path ahead was blocked by the unseen predator.

'I can do this, I have to do this. As they have been saying repeatedly I have a peculiar blood group, my powers and instincts should help me a bit.'

Kayden inhaled deeply when Medusa released his arm with a smile. She let him go, acknowledging that perhaps Kayden now did not require his help to save him.

"Heh, let's do some exercise."

A sinister grin appeared on her gorgeous face. Medusa's eyes began to glow and the succubus habitually licked her sharp canine.

Malcolm on the other hand was equally happy that she was not playing Kayden's guardian anymore. However three if they took their positions and waited for the mutant to appear.

It was not long when an unidentified thing pounced on Malcolm speedily. He knelt immediately upon sensing its direction and successfully dodged.

The mutant was smaller in size and moved faster than the previous one. Medusa leaned and lifted her one leg to support the mutant over it, as she threw him backwards with force.

It all happened so soon that it did not give Kayden a chance to figure out the movements. Before they all could recover from that the bushes moved again.

"Don't let them touch you. Their bodies are poisonous and the touches are lethal."

Malcolm instructed and they both nodded in agreement. Kayden cautiously looked around himself to find something with which he could hit. 𝒇𝘳ℯℯ𝚠𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜ѵ𝑒𝙡.co𝑚

'Fuck! I have to rely on dodging then before I can find something.'

Ten mutants of different sizes emerged from the bushes and two of them lunged into their direction.

Medusa' tail emerged which stretched upwards and reached the branch. The sharp pointy heart shaped end of her tail tore it off, as Kayden caught it.

He nodded at Medusa as the three of them stood closer, Malcolm summoned his rings again and instructed them how to proceed.

One of the mutant plunged at Medusa with his claw shaped nails aimed at her. But before he could land any lethal attack, his body turned into stone.

'What the heck!?'

Kayden glanced at her only to see that Medusa' hair had transformed into numerous thin snakes. He could not move with the horror and the two mutants who were behind him seized the opportunity.

"Watch out!"

Malcolm yelled at him while Kayden staggered, his rings floated in a circular motion and formed a shield.

One of the mutants hit it whereas the other sneaked beneath the shield. Kayden reflexively hit him on the head repeatedly like a cockroach.

"Heh! That was good, uh! Keep going. We can survive this!

Malcolm half encouraged and provoked Kayden, the shield absorbed the energy and blew it at the mutant.

The trees in that direction were completely destroyed and fell over a few mutants. While they were about to beat the asses of the rest of the mutants, a loud wailing siren was heard.

"What is this? Is anyone here other than us?"

Malcolm could not comprehend what the particular siren meant. However it affected the hearing of the mutants and they scurried backwards.

It was evident the particular sound affected them and made the mutants surrender. Kayden looked around and immediately recognized the sound.

"We have to leave right now, it's the siren of special squad. We can get into trouble for being here."

After speaking Kayden ran past the wincing mutants, who were nearly unable to move due to the sound.

Malcolm followed him whereas Medusa crept closer to the stoned mutant and punched him straight into face.

The statue shattered into pieces so as the rest of the body, she did not want to leave behind any more obvious hints.

After her work was done she trailed them both to the other side of the forest. Kayden seemed to know the way out as both of the servants followed him.

[On the other side | Coulter's vehicle]

? After they left the spot Coulter appeared with his squad, the whole area of the forest from that side was surrounded by the cops.

He raised his eyebrows curiously upon finding the injuries over the mutants. They were nearly brainless creatures, but never fought mutually.

'Why are these events occurring one after another frequently? It seems the course of events has already begun! The doom is coming!'

Coulter was becoming equally confused and curious, he was aware of the dire need of the backup.

However in that moment the inspection of the area was the main focus. He successfully picked up the signals of some different aura in the area.

"Seal the forest. Someone else was here too. Don't let anyone escape."
