Demon King – Chapter 168 – The Demon King is Acting as a Bodyguard

“Stupid Yuki! Get your ass over here and pick up your cat!” Making a phone call to her best friend, the little demon king’s tone was quite unfriendly.

Not long after returning home, Eiya had sent her a message saying she would be leaving tomorrow sometime in the afternoon… At that time, Cousin Miao would drive over to pick her up.

“Huh? Why are you the one calling… Where’s Eiru?” Yuki was somewhat surprised. He hadn’t expected that she would be the one to ask him to pick up the cat.

“Ahem, he’s very busy, so I’m just passing along the message…” His Majesty the Demon King cleared her throat and found an excuse to brush it off.

Tsk, she called too hastily and actually forgot to change her voice… Eiru mentally cursed herself. Fortunately, she could just lie, so this guy Yuki probably wouldn’t suspect anything.

“So I can’t come pick it up tomorrow? Why is it suddenly so urgent?” Yuki’s voice came through the phone again. The little demon king snapped back to attention and hurriedly answered the question.

“Because there won’t be anyone here tomorrow, so there’s no time… I can still help you move stuff today though.”

“Forget it, what can you, a little loli, move? If it’s urgent, I’ll come over in a bit… I’m hanging up now.” Yuki didn’t think much of it. Since there was something going on and he had time now, he might as well make the trip.

“Wait! Don’t hang up!” The little demon king suddenly remembered something and hurriedly stopped the other party from hanging up the phone.

“What’s wrong now, Little Lu…” Yuki was always very patient with a certain stupid loli.

“After you get ready to go out, don’t leave and stay at your front door. Then wait for me to call you, got it?” Eiru spoke in a serious tone that left Yuki stunned.

“Oh, okay…” Although he didn’t know what this girl was up to again, he might as well go along with it. It didn’t really affect anything anyway…

After hanging up the phone, the little demon king breathed a sigh of relief. At this hour, letting Yuki go out alone… She wasn’t comfortable with that. So she definitely had to go pick Yuki up herself.

“Gulu, be good. Stupid Yuki will come pick you up soon…” After putting on her shoes at the door, His Majesty the Demon King squatted down and scratched the cat under his chin.

Gulu timely let out comfortable purring sounds. His well-behaved appearance made the little demon king somewhat reluctant to send him away… But she had no choice. After all, it was impossible to take Gulu along, and someone had to take care of him.

Locking the door, she ran outside and hopped over the railing. Eiru spread her wings and flew toward Yuki’s house…

“Hmm? So, can I leave now?” After standing at his front door waiting for five or six minutes, Yuki quickly answered when he saw a certain loli’s call and asked this question.

“You can leave now, go out and turn right…” After saying this sentence, the other side hung up the phone… Hearing her hang up all of a sudden, Yuki felt very puzzled.

What does “go out and turn right” mean… The only thing to his left was a wall…? Even if he wanted to turn left, he couldn’t, right?

Smiling, Yuki walked out the door and turned right. The sight before his eyes almost made his jaw drop. A silver-haired loli was standing in front of him with her arms crossed, looking impatient from waiting.

“How did you get here? It’s late at night, and you, a little loli, actually came here alone?” Yuki stepped forward and bonked the other party on the head, looking annoyed.

“Please, I came to be your bodyguard… You also know that you can’t stay out alone, so if I’m calling you over, then I have to make sure that you’re safe!” Covering her head and glaring at the other party, the little demon king was annoyed at Yuki for bonking her the second he saw her.

“You, a stupid loli, acting as what bodyguard… Please call Eiru over, that would be a bodyguard… He could fight ten people.” Yuki was amused by a certain loli’s words and reached out to pinch the other party’s face.

“With your small frame, protecting yourself should be the first priority… Speaking of which, what happened to your hand?” Yuki suddenly noticed the ‘new injury’ on the other party’s forearm, and his expression immediately darkened.

“Come on, I flew over here… Those people don’t have anti-air capabilities, do they?” Eiru said that since she could fly, she could do whatever she wanted, ignoring all obstacles and going directly from point A to point B… It couldn’t be more convenient.

“I’m not joking around with you. What happened to your hand? Explain it to me clearly!” Yuki was in no mood to joke with the girl in front of him. His serious appearance even scared a certain heartless loli into freezing in place.

That was his beloved. Seeing the bandages wrapped around the girl’s forearm, plus the faint smell of medicine, he felt his heart clench into a ball.

“Ah, sorry, I didn’t mean to be mad at you…” Seeing the other party frozen in shock, Yuki realized what happened and hurriedly comforted a certain stupid loli…

“But you get injured every two or three days, I’m really worried…” Yuki gently grasped Eiru’s right hand and carefully observed the wound. After a moment, he raised his head…

“Does it hurt? How did you get injured?”

Yuki now wanted nothing more than to catch this stupid loli who didn’t take good care of herself and keep her at his home under careful watch. He had no clue what Eiru was doing. With him around, why was she still injured?

No wait, although Eiru was carefree, he was still responsible and was always reliable… Yuki looked at the girl in front of him with an additional trace of helplessness. Based on his understanding of this girl, she probably snuck out when no one was paying attention and got herself injured again.

“You need to be more careful… It really hurts my heart when you’re like this.” Using his hand to pinch the stupid loli’s cheeks in front of him, his gentle tone was full of helplessness.

“Gwuu…” His Majesty the Demon King felt somewhat wronged. This injury clearly wasn’t something she had caused herself… But she couldn’t really explain why, so she could only blink her eyes and look at the person in front of her like she was wronged.

Originally she wanted to complain a bit, but for some reason… Every time she saw Yuki look serious or heartbroken, Eiru suddenly wanted to drop the tough act. She even felt the impulse to act pitiful in front of him.

Whatever, if she wanted to act sad, then so be it. What’s the point in overthinking it? Thinking this way, the little demon king leaned forward and pressed her entire body against Yuki…

She wrapped her left hand around Yuki’s waist, and buried her face in the other party’s chest and cried…

“Alright, good girl~ Be more careful in the future, okay? Don’t get hurt anymore…” Half-squatting down, like he was coaxing a small animal, Yuki gently stroked the girl’s little head.

“Don’t treat me like a child, or I’ll beat you up…” Raising her head, Eiru stared at her best friend with dim eyes. We’re brothers, so if you treat me like a child, wouldn’t that be like I’m a level below you? That would be a direct loss for me.

“Okay, okay, okay. Go ahead and beat me up…” Yuki didn’t take it seriously… After some time had passed, someone seemed to have forgotten that the loli in front of him could compact metal spoons into balls with her bare hands.

“Don’t you know? The ones who gave me this injury were two fully grown men with knives…” The demon king’s voice, with a dangerous edge to her voice, rang in his ear. Immediately, Yuki felt that something was off…

“Those two people, I beat them half to death. They’ll only be able to spend the rest of their lives lying in bed…” Her eerie voice combined with somewhat terrifying content suddenly made goosebumps break out all over Yuki’s back.
