Demon King – Chapter 119 – Let’s Go! To the Comic Con!

Ten o’clock in the morning was one of the most comfortable time periods of the day.

There was no morning chill, and the cold air that had accumulated through the night was also dispelled by the sun that had been up for a while. However, the sun wasn’t up long enough for it to reach the scorching temperature of noon.

But all of this had nothing to do with a certain blanket worm curled up in an air-conditioned room…

There was a kind of happiness called turning on the air conditioning and covering yourself with a blanket. In this mom-would-beat-you-for-this operation, our Little Demon Lord had no intention of getting up at all, wrapping herself in the blanket and rolling around like a blanket worm.

“Summer vacation, summer vacation, sleeping in~ I don’t want to get up…” On the first morning of summer vacation, the rhythm of their entire holiday had already been set by a certain shameful Her Majesty the Demon Lord.

“Gururu… Wah!” Rolling and rolling, she accidentally rolled too far. With a bang, Her Majesty the Demon Lord fell directly from the bed to the floor, blanket and all.

“Ow ow ow…” Rubbing the places that hurt from the fall, Eiru reluctantly emerged from the blanket and crawled back onto the bed.

“Vacation is so comfortable~” Although she still had to go get her report card and student ID on Monday, today could indeed be considered the first day of summer vacation.

Eiru’s summer vacation plan was also very simple—stay here as long as possible. As long as her family didn’t make her, she absolutely wouldn’t go back… After going back for just a few days, she’d probably be dragged back to her hometown again. Before that happened, she could enjoy herself here as long as possible. Moreover, there was the comic con to go to this Saturday…

Wait, today seems to be Saturday… Her Majesty the Demon Lord had a sudden realization and jumped up from the bed. She quickly ran to the bedside to grab her phone, and the “Saturday” displayed on it immediately made her completely flustered.

“Today is Saturday! The comic con is today!” Comic cons generally open to the public from nine to ten in the morning. Originally, Eiru planned to take the subway early to avoid the crowds when there were too many people. And arriving early when there weren’t many people, she could also change clothes at home before going out.

Now that she had overslept, she’d definitely have to squeeze into the subway with a bunch of people, and she definitely couldn’t change clothes before leaving. The Little Demon Lord had planned to wear the military lolita outfit that Yuki gave her, but at this time, she could only see if she could change at the venue.

“What should I wear…” Standing in front of the wardrobe, Her Majesty the Demon Lord fell into indecision. If possible, she really didn’t want to wear those cheap clothes, thinking about how to dress herself up more beautifully.

Anything related to JK uniforms definitely had to be passed over. After all, she had only bought a few cheap items randomly. If she wore them out, she could easily be called out by JK police for wearing knockoffs. And in this situation, she would be in the wrong, so being called out would only result in suffering in silence with nothing to say.

“Looks like I can only pick some casual wear… I should have bought a few wearable pieces back then.” Looking at her somewhat barren wardrobe, Eiru sighed. At that time, most of what Yuki bought for her were nightgowns and other home outfits, not really suitable for going out.

After all, she couldn’t go out wearing her school uniform, right? Although the uniform was pretty, honestly speaking, wearing a school uniform to this kind of event would still be quite strange. Moreover, if people noticed and traced back to her school through the uniform, that would be troublesome.

Not to be narcissistic, but Her Majesty the Demon Lord had considerable awareness of her current appearance. If she really went wearing a school uniform, there might be a bunch of people starting to investigate her school and such. If it attracted a bunch of harassment, she would be very troubled.

“This outfit will do…” She took out a set of standard black and white casual wear. A white ultra-short knit cardigan, and a black casual dress with a hem just past her thighs. This was one of the few pieces in the Little Demon Lord’s wardrobe that wasn’t cheap.

Her silver-white long hair was tied in a side ponytail, her legs were covered with black over-the-knee student socks with white-edged sock tops, plus a pair of black and white mid-calf Martin boots. This youthful campus-style outfit, although on a little loli just over 1.4 meters tall, didn’t look out of place due to her exceptional appearance and figure, but instead added a few points of sporty cuteness.

“Time to go, time to go, otherwise there won’t be much time to browse…” Folding the military lolita outfit neatly and putting it in a black and white shoulder bag beside her, after gathering everything she needed to bring, the Little Demon Lord grabbed a small bag of bread and ran out the door…

The subway station was honestly quite far, and honestly she didn’t really want to walk there. But since she couldn’t spread her wings in front of people, flying there was definitely not an option. After struggling for a while, Eiru reluctantly hailed a taxi.

“Hello uncle, just to the nearest subway station please.” After opening the back door and getting in the car, Her Majesty the Demon Lord showed a sweet smile and said to the driver.

“Alright, little sister, are you going out alone? You need to be careful about your safety. The East District here isn’t very peaceful.” Seeing such a small child riding in his car alone, out of kindness, the driver reminded the little loli in the back seat while starting the car.

“Mm, I’ll be careful. But has something happened recently? Why do you say it’s not peaceful?” Hearing some keywords from the other person’s words, the Little Demon Lord asked curiously.

If she remembered correctly, previously in the East District there was only that widely reported home invasion robbery gang, right? Those two guys were messed with by her during the arrest process and directly crashed and got caught… Even if there were other accomplices, they should have been exposed too, right?

“Little sister, you’re not from the East District, are you? The East District has always had more gangs and hooligans. Although they’re not that active, they’re not law-abiding citizens either.”

“Uh…” Embarrassedly scratching her face, Eiru felt she might be too much of a shut-in. In her daily life, she just went between school and home in a straight line, at most stopping by the milk tea shop where she worked part-time. As a result, after living here for three years, she really didn’t know much about these things.

“And also, recently you girls should try not to go out at night if possible. Starting last week, there’s been a criminal around here at night who specifically targets lone women. Several people have already fallen victim, and there are still no leads.”

“Targeting them? For money or for sex?” The Little Demon Lord was somewhat confused. This wasn’t a small matter, right? Although she didn’t really understand how well the police investigated, theoretically this kind of person shouldn’t be that hard to catch, right?

“Robbery seems to be incidental, mainly rape, and also murder…” The driver sighed regretfully. “Except for two lucky ones who encountered a passerby and was saved, the others all…”

How come I’ve never heard of such a big incident… Could it have been suppressed? Her Majesty the Demon Lord pondered. Even if she was a shut-in, there was no way she wouldn’t know about this kind of thing.

“The police haven’t announced any specific details for now now, it’s basically all rumors. Anyway, girl, you should be careful. If possible, try not to go out at night, and if you do go out, it’s best to go in a group rather than alone.”

“Mm… thanks.” Responding casually, the Little Demon Lord didn’t think much about it. After all, this kind of thing generally wouldn’t happen to her.

As for helping to catch the person, Eiru had no such thoughts at all. After all, this kind of thing should be left to professionals. As a non-human, it would be better not to get involved. If she really encountered it, she could help, but normally it was better not to meddle. It would most likely cause trouble and easily bring unwanted attention on her…

Although Her Majesty the Demon Lord got a bit carsick, there wasn’t much traffic along the way, and they arrived at the destination in no time, so she didn’t feel uncomfortable for long. Taking out her phone to pay the fare, after waving goodbye to the kind driver, Her Majesty the Demon Lord jumped out of the car and walked toward the nearby subway station.

In the bustling subway station, a beautiful sight rarely appeared today. A silver-haired little loli dressed in a cute outfit with a shoulder bag, standing with her head tilted in front of a sign showing the subway route map, attracted the attention of many people around.

“Seems like it’s at the exhibition center… Let me see which station to take.” Her finger slid on the sign, and the Little Demon Lord quickly found her destination.

“Damn, I have to take more than twenty stations?” Counting the number of stations to pass through, Eiru was shocked. Going by this plan, by the time she got there, it would probably be lunchtime.

“Such a loss, I should have left earlier…” After buying a ticket and entering the platform, the Little Demon Lord took out her phone and opened a group called [Xiaoye Court]. She planned to see if there was any big news in this game guild group named after the guild.

As she expected, quite a few people had already arrived, successfully met up and even posted several group photos and surrounding photos in the group. Some guild members who couldn’t go were feeling jealous looking at the photos, but more were clamoring to see the real faces of other guild members.

“Stupid Seven One isn’t here yet…” Browsing through the messages in the group, Eiru found that her old partner didn’t seem to have arrived at the venue yet. At least the guild members present indicated they hadn’t met up with him, so he should still be on the way.

“Don’t know if Stupid Seven One is male or female… But he’s always calling people ‘big brother’, probably still a boy?” While talking to herself, curious about her old partner’s true identity, the Little Demon Lord was also thinking about what kind of reaction the group of silly guild members would have when they saw her.

“The train to the Exhibition Center is about to arrive, please wait outside the yellow line…” As the female announcement sounded, Her Majesty the Demon Lord put down her phone. However, after the subway entered the station, the personnel situation on the train made her eyes widen.

“Holy crap, so many people.” Looking at the crowded scene inside the car, Her Majesty the Demon Lord somewhat doubted whether she could squeeze onto this subway.

“Forget it, I’m in a hurry, better get on.” Looking at the not-small crowd behind her, the Little Demon Lord estimated that the next train would probably have about the same number of people, so she steeled herself and squeezed onto this train.
