Incubus [BOOK 2] (Jimin FF)

Artelle (Y/N's POV)

I was about to close my eyes and let go when I heard a faint voice calling my name.

I jolted awake, sweating and crying.

Who called me?

I had my sword in my hand, and when I looked in front of me, my stomach dropped.

Many of the wildlife that lived here, was in front of me. Dead.

I felt dizzy. 

My heart was racing.

My hands were shaking as they held my sword drenched in blood.

Tears began to fall, as I fell to the floor.

Dropping my sword, my breathing became shaky and uneven.

Eh? Why is my vision becoming so... blurry..?

Suddenly, I felt someone embrace me.

It's so warm. It feels just like Jimin's embrace.

"Jimin?" I mumbled.

"Thank you, Kim Y/N, for taking care of my little brother," the stranger warmly said.

He had silver hair, almost like Jimin's. His eyes were a yellow looking color. 

"Who are you..?" I asked, my vision becoming more clear.

He pulled away and smiled.

My eyes widened as I saw his similarities to Jimin.

"My name is Park Seojun, I hope he's mentioned me at least once to you?" he chuckles.

What an innocent aura.

He probably hasn't seen all the evils of this world yet.

How lucky.

"Your surname is Park... There's no way that-"

"You guessed it. I'm Jimin's older brother. Well, I used to be at least," he said and smiled sadly.

"What do you mean you used to be his brother? Aren't you also supposed to be dead?" I asked, taking a step away from him.

"My fate has changed. That day, I was supposed to die, but he changed my fate. I'm forever grateful to him which is why I couldn't go back to my family," he sighed.

"Who's he?" 

"My master, Lord Artemis. He discovered I was barely alive after your parents attempted to kill me and healed my wounds, taking me in. Now, I serve him and only him."

He looked away.

That's when I noticed he had two long swords crossed over each other on his back, a dagger on his side, and throwing knives on his other side.

He had many scars on his body.

This man...

He isn't innocent at all.

That smile he wears, it covers up all of his crimes and sins.

I slowly picked up my sword, then enhanced it.

He turned back towards me.

Seojun looked shocked for a second before his smile returned.

"I heard you have the intention of stealing the throne from Lord Artemis. For as long as I live, I won't allow you to harm him." He took a few steps back.

"This was nice. I can see why Jimin likes you so much. Take care of my little brother for me, will you?" 

Then, he disappeared.

Just like that.

No teleportation or anything.

He just disappeared.

I sheathed my sword and looked down.

There's no way.

Park Seojun was pronounced dead a few days my parents killed him from what Jimin told me.

Tch.

That's just one more person to kill to take over the throne.

He looked strong too.

What a pain.

Completely forgetting about my bloody hands, I stepped over the corpses of the dead animals in front of me.

"Lady Y/N. I have found it. The location of Sir Artemis's castle," Wind said, appearing from my bracelet.

"Is that so? Then, let's head over there immediately," I commanded.

I called for the rest of the spirits to come out, each of them eager to go pay Artemis a 'visit'.

I hovered above the ground, waiting for Wind to lead the way.

"It's right over there," he said and pointed towards the mountains.

"I don't see anything," Aqua whispered.

"Idiot, it's because he's hidden it," Electro chuckled.

I began to fly over there right away.

As soon as I went near the mountains, a portal appeared.

Not being able to stop in time, I went flying in.

Literally.

The next thing I knew, I was in another place now.

Aqua, Blaze, Wind, and Electro soon came in after me.

There a lot of people around, but they all froze when they saw us.

Soon, they began to bow to us, lowering their heads in what seemed like fear.

I walked up to someone, pointing my sheathed sword at him.

"Raise your head," I commanded.

He rose his head and looked up at me, shivering and cowering beneath my feet.

"W-What can I do for you, milady?" he asked, not even knowing who I am.

Everyone here is bowing towards us. Just what is this place? They don't even know who I am.

"Tell me what this place is, and why you are all bowing to me," I demanded.

Then, I noticed they were all human. Not Demons, but humans.

"This place is called A-Artelle. We are bowing to y-you because you're a Demon. Here, we humans are beneath Demons, so we must be respectful towards any Demon as Lord Artemis says," he stuttered.

"How come I've never heard of this place before?" I asked.

He looked up to me in shock before lowering his head once again.

"Artelle is a well-known place for having many Demons live here. Lord Artemis took over the world not too long ago, and the news of Demons' existence spread quickly. I believe the last place for the news to spread to is Asia," he replied.

"How long ago did Artemis take over?"

"A few hundred years ago."

That long ago?

Why is the news only getting to Asia now?

Taking a few steps back, I smirked.

Hearing a few footsteps come from behind me, I whirled around, pulling out my sword.

"I see, you've already arrived. Kim Y/N."
