Demon King – Chapter 133 – Brother… Sister Phone Call

At noon, a silver-haired little loli yawned while sitting on the sofa bed, looking like she had just woken up.

As everyone knows, once vacation starts, mornings cease to exist—you wake up and it’s already noon.

Though that said, a certain loli had actually gotten up in the morning, so this was technically a return-to-bed nap. After all, Yuki had left early in the morning, and she still needed to get up to see him off.

She had asked him why he didn’t sleep in more during vacation and instead got up early—wasn’t he tired? His answer was:

“My mom has always been against me staying out overnight. Even though I told her about it, it’s better to go back early to avoid her throwing a fit…”

Seeing her best friend holding his head with a helpless expression at the time, the little Demon Lord immediately understood—after all, she had been fortunate enough to witness his mother’s fury once, and it was quite scary.

Yuki’s motherly instincts were still as strong as ever. Before leaving, he repeatedly emphasized that she should take good care of herself, until Her Majesty the Demon Lord’s ears developed calluses from listening.

“Here’s the key for you. If no one’s here or everyone’s sleeping, just unlock the door and come in…” Since Yuki had mentioned that he would bring cat food from time to time, afraid he wouldn’t be able to get in, Eiru tossed him a spare house key before he left.

After everything was settled, the little Demon Lord crawled back to sleep with a certain big cat for her return-to-bed nap… sleeping until noon.

The injury on her right shoulder felt noticeably better, and she could already do basic moments with her right hand. Although she still couldn’t use it much, as any strain on her right hand would still cause her a nearly unbearable amount of pain.

Yawning, based on Her Majesty the Demon Lord’s understanding of her body’s recovery speed, these kinds of days would probably continue for quite a while.

Although her recovery abilities were stronger than ordinary people, the speed was somewhat… subtle.

If you said it was fast, the total time it took for her to completely recover was only about twenty percent shorter than ordinary people, so overall not much faster. But if you said it was slow, during specific stages the recovery speed was ridiculously fast…

Simply put, if you divide wounds into three stages—the most severe stage right after injury, the gradual recovery stage, and the final stage of healing… Does this not feel like charging a phone?

The little Demon Lord recovered frighteningly fast in the first and last stages. Even though she got stabbed in the shoulder, no normal person could automatically heal and stop bleeding like she did after a while…

But during the gradual recovery stage, it would be abnormally slow, maybe to slow down for a full recovery? At least this strange recovery rhythm allowed Eiru to recover completely from any serious external injury without leaving a single scar.

After getting up and finishing her morning routine, Her Majesty the Demon Lord began busying herself by preparing lunch, and a small busy figure soon appeared in the kitchen.

With one hand unusable, she mostly did tasks with the assistance of her tail, making our little Demon Lord sigh—having a flexible tail is really convenient…

It could both hold and hang onto things. Under tight conditions, the tail could even exert greater grip strength and pulling force than arms. Even during lonely, empty, and cold times, it could perform some special… ahem, getting off track.

TN: wtf…

After making lunch and opening a can for a certain big cat, Eiru sat at the dining table. Just as she was about to enjoy her lunch, her phone rang.

“That’s rare, someone actually called… Who is so bored that they’d call me for no reason?” The little Demon Lord, very aware of the size of her own social circle, picked up her phone in confusion…

“Incredible, has the sun really risen from the west?” The caller ID clearly showed ‘Eiya’, making her mouth twitch—this girl actually called her proactively?

“Hello?” After using magic to change her voice, Her Majesty the Demon Lord answered the phone. She wanted to see what medicine this younger sister, who usually ignored her, was selling today…

“Hello, brother. Have you eaten yet?” The other party started with a formal polite greeting, though there wasn’t really anything wrong with that.

“Just about to eat, what’s up?”

“Nothing major… just wondering when you’re planning to come back home.”

Hearing this sentence, the little Demon Lord’s heart immediately skipped a beat. She knew that there was no way her sister would call him on her own—now it was clear, this was obviously because of her mom—she was here to drag her back!

They wanted to drag her back when vacation had just started? How heartless! Couldn’t they let her enjoy herself outside a bit longer?!

“Uh… I should go back after a while. Vacation just started, so I want to hang out with friends here for a bit…” Skillfully deploying the imaginary friend technique, Her Majesty the Demon Lord tried to buy herself more alone time.

“This friend you’re talking about… forget it, don’t be so nervous, mom didn’t ask me to find you, I called you myself.” Since she was her biological sister, Eiya roughly understood what her brother was thinking. After her explanation, the person on the other end of the phone also relaxed.

“Just asking whenever you have time. When you come back, Mom said to have you accompany me to Qionglong to play.”

Hm? The little Demon Lord was somewhat surprised—was her younger sister asking her to go out and play together? Naturally, there was no reason to refuse… No matter what, she was still her sister.

“Qionglong opened a new water park…”

“Wait! I’m not listening! Goodbye!” Hearing those last four words, Her Majesty the Demon Lord immediately overturned all her previous thoughts—asking me to go to a water park? You might as well just kill me!

“Don’t rush to refuse, let me tell you…” Her brother’s reaction was still within Eiya’s expectations. For some unknown reason, he particularly disliked places like water parks and beaches.

“Not listening, not listening, not listening. I’d rather jump off a building than set foot in a water park.”

“Why won’t you listen? You’re almost a grownup now, yet you’re throwing a tantrum like a little girl…” If it weren’t for his deeper voice, Eiya would’ve suspected that on the other end was a child throwing a tantrum.

“Meow…” During their standoff, Gulu, who had finished eating his canned food, climbed onto Her Majesty the Demon Lord’s lap, looking curiously at this little loli who seemed to be throwing a tantrum.

“Brother? Did you get a cat?” Gulu’s meow was naturally heard on the other end of the phone. Whether it was her imagination or not, Eiru felt that her younger sister’s surprised voice seemed to contain a hint of… joy?

“Sort of…”

“Can I come see it! Are you home tomorrow?!” The excitement on the other end of the phone made the little Demon Lord suddenly remember that her younger sister, like herself, loved small animals.
