Demon King – Chapter 165 – Pure profit…

In the afternoon, a certain girl, who had already recovered from this morning’s events, was weaving through a bookstore’s shelves. She was looking for a particular book while trying to recall what happened earlier.

Shortly after crushing that ball, she seemed to have blacked out, with no memory of what happened afterward… When she woke up, she only found herself hugging Gulu and lying on the bed.

But honestly, the thing her little sister gave her was pretty effective… Even though she had no clue what happened, after waking up, she felt much more relaxed. She wasn’t as depressed, and her mood had improved quite a bit…

Before long, the little demon lord found the serialized novel she wanted to read on the shelf… After seeing online that the latest volume’s physical book was released, she quickly changed clothes and ran to this bookstore, hoping to try her luck.

The bookstore wasn’t particularly large, but it wasn’t small either… With the internet being so developed and convenient nowadays, fewer and fewer people came to bookstores to buy physical copies of books. She ran there mostly to freeload, but partly to experience the atmosphere of a bookstore…

There weren’t many people at the bookstore, so the silver-haired loli in her dark blue academic style outfit was particularly conspicuous. Most of the people in the bookstore were drawn to this cute loli, who was standing on her tiptoes trying to reach for a book high up on the shelf.

“I miss my old 170cm height…” Her tragic height meant she couldn’t reach the books on the upper shelf no matter how hard she tried. Eiru puffed out her cheeks, reminiscing about how she used to be taller.

Although there weren’t many people, Her Majesty the Demon Lord was quite aware that she was drawing a lot of attention… Naturally, she couldn’t fly or use mana to grab the book either.

Right now, in everyone else’s eyes, she was just an adorable loli who couldn’t reach the books due to her height and was sulking in place.

Tapping the floor as she ran off, the little demon lord went to the reading area and, under the confused gazes of a group of readers… picked up a chair and immediately ran back.

“Hey! Little girl! You can’t take that chair!” A staff member not far away saw this scene and hurriedly chased after her.

But he was quite confused to discover that… she was way too fast!? He, a grown man carrying nothing, couldn’t catch up to a child holding a chair.

Placing the chair in front of the bookshelf, worried about getting the chair dirty, the little demon lord took off her small leather shoes and climbed onto the chair…

Her legs, covered in black and white striped knee-high socks, stood on the chair as Her Majesty the Demon Lord stood on her tippy toes… With the chair’s help, she finally managed to get the book she wanted.

“Hehe…” Hugging the book and sitting back down on the chair, Eiru was happy when she suddenly felt someone tap her shoulder twice from behind. Turning around, she saw the serious face of the employee.

“Little sister, you can’t take that chair from here.” The girl in front of him looked to be only around ten years old at most, so the bookstore employee decided it would be better to reason properly with her.

“Ah! Sorry, sorry! I just wasn’t tall enough… I couldn’t reach the book…” The little demon lord quickly put on her shoes and got off the chair, standing aside and explaining embarrassedly.

“It’s fine, next time if you need help, you can always just ask us…” The employee was quite surprised. He thought it was another bratty kid, and didn’t expect her to be so respectful…

After watching him take the chair away, she noticed that quite a few people were smiling at her. Her face immediately turned red, and as if fleeing, Her Majesty the Demon Lord ran toward the reading area with her book…

Finding a place to sit down, Eiru noticed a few high school-aged boys gathered not far away, seemingly discussing something…

Whatever, no point in worrying about other people’s business… Her Majesty the Demon Lord placed several books on the table and picked one up to read…

However, she didn’t know that she was actually the subject of this group’s discussion.

“No way… Agui, that girl looks to be about ten years old… at most a primary school graduate? You want to hit on her?”

“I swear, I’ve never seen such a beautiful girl in my life… Although she’s a bit young, I would regret it for the rest of my life if I missed the chance.”

“The silver hair is a bonus, and her outfit looks so cute… Her chest is a bit small, but that figure is perfect…”

After discussing it for a while, the boy called ‘Agui’ suddenly left, jogging away from there…

“Agui’s really going to hit on her? I couldn’t bring myself to do it…”

“Don’t you know? This guy isn’t picky at all. He’s seduced so many girls, he’s basically the pickup king.”

“You don’t know, but Agui’s pickup skills are incredible. He sweet-talks them into bed, then disappears after doing the deed.”

“Damn, she’s so young though, are you serious? Isn’t this criminal?”

“Let me tell you, Agui once tricked a loli into bed… she was under 150cm, looked like a kid who just started middle school, but was actually a high school student. Maybe this girl just looks young too…”

The little demon lord, focused on reading, suddenly noticed that someone handed her some boba. Turning to look, she discovered someone had appeared beside her at some point…

“Hello? May I ask…” Getting boba out of nowhere, Eiru didn’t think there were any free meals falling from the sky… Had this guy mistaken her for someone else?

“It’s for you… I saw you sitting here for so long, so I thought that you might’ve been thirsty” The boy smiled and tapped the cup with his finger. “I just bought it downstairs, but I’m not sure if it suits your taste.”

“Emmmmm… thanks…” The little demon lord was indeed a bit thirsty. Under the boy’s gaze, she took out her phone…

“How much is it? I’ll transfer it to you…”

After all, she felt a bit awkward being treated by someone she doesn’t know. She really should pay him back for it, along with some extra as a delivery fee…

Since it was from a milk tea shop and it was properly sealed, it didn’t seem tampered with. Although even if it had been tampered with, she wouldn’t be worried at all.

“No need, no need… I just wanted to make a friend. How old are you? Why are you here reading alone…” The boy waved his hand, telling her that she didn’t need to transfer money.

“I’d rather give you the money… And I’m sixteen, so there’s nothing strange about going out alone…”

“Really no need. If you feel bad about it, could you tell me your name? As for me, you can call me Agui…” Hearing she was sixteen, the boy named Agui had a flash of light in his eyes, with some excitement hidden in his voice.

“Eiru…” The little demon lord put away her phone. Since the other party was so insistent, continuing to read in front of him was somewhat disrespectful.

And just giving him her name for free boba, she was just making pure profit, right? The boba looked fine too, so she might as well indulge him a bit…

She wasn’t as guarded as he expected, and Agui thought that the girl was quite easy to deceive… He was quite excited inside. Trading a milk tea for this loli’s name and testing her attitude… he was making pure profit, right?
