My squad and I are now In front of the vast mission board. Giving 100 percent of our focus to every mission on the board.
There are some bizarre missions on this board that I will barely even consider accepting. And the missions are immediately superseded the moment they are chosen by the disciples. The most annoying thing right now is that most of these hornitads are giving me a weird look.
'Mmm—Strange,' These are the only words that leave my mouth before I refocus my gaze on the mission board.
★[Mission]

[Location: Planet Demaz(Beast Planet)]

"Damn– that is basically signing a death contract. The difficulty of this mission is arduous, plus, we have no idea about the unruly dangers on the beast planet." Russell sighs. "What do you think about it, team leader?" He asks, clearly frustrated about the fact that we have been skimming through unfavorable missions.
There's also an expression of distress on Abby's face as she skims through the missions listed above.
"Sigh…I'm much more disturbed than you Russell, let's just keep scouring for a suitable mission. This one isn't as dangerous as it seems, we might just end up taking it if we don't find any other one that is suitable."
"Uwaaaaah!!! Team leader, if you don't care about our lives, what about your boyfriend? Why do you want to pick this dangerous mission?!" Kim cries out and instantly hides behind her brother in order to shield herself from receiving a knock from Abby.
Kurt simply raises his eyebrows when he sees Kim clutching him tightly.
Although when I look at the supposed twins, they don't really look like twins, as Kurt is bulkier and more mature than Kim, giving him the look of a big brother.
Abby simply takes a quick peek at me with a red face before turning away the moment she meets my eyes and continues scouring the mission board.

Damn… If I had taken the eldritch race, I would have also been hunted down like this guy.
Thinking about it makes me gulp hard.
[Well, it's not like you aren't gonna be hunted for being an Incubus.]
'Well~Well, at least I'm not as hated as an eldritch," I answer.
[Man…you are man's worst nightmare. During the reign of Incubuses, many men were cuckolded. So…..Cough! It will be much better for you to end up with a hot Arch-mage as your master, so you can service her cunt.]
'What kind of an advice is that?' I ask angrily.
[If you don't want that to happen then you've to get stronger.] Myra tells me.
'Sigh…. your advices are usually sensible but you just hurl them at me in a bad way.' I reply letting out a sigh and continue skimming through the mission with my squad.

"Fuck!" Everyone says in unison.
"The missions that are vacant are pretty much fucked up. The good ones have been taken by the other disciples. If only we came earlier—sigh…." Abby lets out a sigh…
"Team leader, this isn't like you— I mean… you constantly pick dangerous missions regardless of the difficulty. Isn't that why you are so prominent and our senior at the same time?
But….today, you are behaving like these missions are something that you haven't seen before.
Perhaps, maybe….you are worried about your lover….?" Laura finally utters with a shy expression.
"What….w-what do you mean?" Abby asks with a faint blush on her face.
"Okay, we'll take the first mission; Procure the sacred lotus of Agus," Abby announces and brings out a small brown token with some runes inscribed on it.
She etches the token on the board in the space where the first mission is projected.
Suddenly, the token bursts with white light before dimming down, and in the next moment, the mission is also marked as 'Taken'.
Clutching the token in her hand, she suddenly moves her face closer to me and holds my hands.
"I'll protect you—- You don't have to worry about getting hurt, not even an ant can touch you," Abby tells me, leaning forward for a kiss.
"COUGH! You guys should remember that you are inside the guild where thousands of people are watching." Russell clears his throat.
Abby's face burns hot red as she stops leaning forward but the worry on her face is still etched there.
"I'll also try not to be a deadweight, I promise," I tell her. And in the next moment, like a wire was sparked, Abby kisses me in public.
"I'll look forward to it…" She replies and begins to walk toward the second platform which has the words "Reception Attendees" written above.
Wasting no time, we slowly follow her….
[Teeheehee…. She's madly in love] Myra whispers in my head.
'I also didn't expect her to like me back, besides, my Incubus aura isn't leaking because of the artifact Aurora gave me…'
[Umh… I hope you won't act the role of a damsel in distress. If things get pretty disastrous, make a run for it. She's stronger than you if things get any messy, so she can take care of herself. I-I don't wanna lose you even though you're a jerk.] Myra warns me.
'I understand.'
The next moment, we arrive in front of an old man with rough, white curly hair and an old pair eyeglasses on his pale face, seated in a cubicle. This old man is among the attendees on this platform
"Whadayya want boys and girls? Oh, ya that new guy?" The old man says, flashing a smile at me.
Ding!
[A Blood Incubus has been detected.]
[A disguise has been detected]
[Show your dominance as the new king!]
