Demon King – Chapter 169 – The Demon King Reveals Her True Identity!
“Hmm hm hm~” Getting a piggyback ride from Yuki, the little demon king was pretty satisfied with her personal transportation method.
“Stupid Yuki… I’m really troubled by something right now…” Resting her head on Yuki’s shoulder, His Majesty the Demon King started slacking off.
“Hmm? What’s wrong?”
“It’s about what you mentioned before, our mandatory military training… I don’t think I can handle it…” Making dissatisfied grunting sounds, the only thing on Eiru’s face right now was a pout.
“Talk to your family and apply for an exemption?” Yuki didn’t think this was a big deal. “Besides, who was the one that said it wasn’t a problem before?”
“I just didn’t think about it properly at the time… My family would never agree to let me skip it. I’m going to die…”
“It shouldn’t be that bad for you… The training for women is less intense. Maybe if the instructor saw you like this, they’d go easier on you?”
“But you said you participated in middle school, so how did you get through it then? You’ve already done it once, so there’s nothing to be afraid of, right?” Yuki remembered her mentioning she had participated in military training in middle school. Although it was certainly harder now, it shouldn’t be bad enough to make her react like this.
“It’s different… Anyway, I don’t want to participate this time. Help me out~” Rubbing her head against his face, the little demon king started acting cute toward her best friend, fully utilizing her advantages as a cute girl.
Even if you beg me like this, there’s nothing I can do… Yuki felt somewhat troubled. I don’t even know your class or your name. Although I really want to help you, how exactly am I supposed to help you?

“Tell me your name and class, and I’ll see if I can help…” Yuki thought about it and decided to take this opportunity to find out the girl’s name. “Without a class or name, I can’t do anything, right?”
“Eiru, Class 22 of Year 1~” Intimately nuzzling against his neck, a certain loli revealed her identity without hesitation.
“So Eiru asked you to come find me for help, to get him a military training exemption, right?” Yuki immediately felt speechless, though this kind of plan was very much in his best friend’s style.
“Yep~” His Majesty the Demon King didn’t deny it – I’m asking myself for help, nothing wrong with that, right? And this training exemption really is for me…
“No way. I’d love to see that guy suffer a bit. I’ve been wanting to watch him get disciplined for a long time…” Yuki flatly refused. If his best friend didn’t go, then how much entertainment would he miss out on? What a huge loss…
Besides, military training was one of the few activities that could make that mischievous Eiru settle down. Being able to watch someone who was usually so cunning and annoying suffer… How would he not enjoy that?
“Even if you beg for him, it won’t work. Eiru should be thrown into that training base for some proper discipline… Stop, stop, stop! Why are you grabbing my hair!” Halfway through speaking, the pain from his scalp interrupted Yuki mid-sentence.
“I’m grabbing you, you heartless bastard! If you send me there, then you’re asking me to die!” The exploded demon king fiercely grabbed her best friend’s hair, venting all her anger.
“Go bald! You bastard!”
“No, no, no! Spare me! Don’t grab! My hair’s really going to fall out!”

——After a bout of playful fighting——
“Don’t think you can bribe me with gummy candy… ahhh…” Holding two unopened packages of gummy candy, the little demon king opened her mouth to let her best friend feed her while expressing her stance.
This girl really was too easy to coax. If you give her food, then everything’s fine… While feeding her, Yuki’s face darkened into a scowl. What if this girl got snatched away in the future because someone offered her food?
“Open this pack…” Seeing that the pack of gummies Yuki’s hands was finished, Eiru handed over one of the packs from her arms and opened her mouth again, waiting for him to feed her again…
“Alright, alright, don’t eat so much. Let’s deal with Gulu’s situation first…” Before they knew it, the two had arrived downstairs at the apartment building where Eiru lived… Yuki didn’t open the pack of gummies in his hands and indicated they should handle the important business first.
“Just stay in the room. I’ll take the stuff and the cat and go back myself…”
After all, it was late at night, and having this loli go out by herself really was worrying… As for himself, since he was a guy, as long as he stuck to main roads and avoided the small alleys, it would be fine.
The poor security in the East District was only a problem in the alley clusters and urban villages. It wasn’t so bad that people would get machine-gunned down walking on main streets…
“No~ way~ I want to see you off!” However, a certain loli was unusually stubborn, expressing that she wasn’t comfortable with Yuki going back alone.
After all, His Majesty the Demon King might have a constitution that attracted trouble. Over the past few years, she had indeed encountered a lot of trouble when going out… Mainly because of her appearance.

Moreover, because she spent most of her time staying home, she didn’t understand the surrounding environment well enough. Combined with some rumours, she’d pretty much demonized the East District into some kind of more realistic Gotham.
“No, that’s just…” Yuki didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He felt like he was about to fall into some kind of loop.
Lu wasn’t comfortable with him going home alone, so she’d send him home. But he wasn’t comfortable with her going back alone, so he’d send her back. Lu again wasn’t comfortable with him going home alone, so…
Toxic! This was Yuki’s only assessment of the current situation. What kind of mess was this? Then he quickly thought of the best way to break this deadlock…
“In that case, why don’t you just stay at my place? My parents aren’t home today anyway?” Yuki went all-in, trying to invite a certain loli to his home.
“Huh?” Eiru was stunned, completely not expecting her best friend to suddenly say something so shameless.
“Are you… luring an underage girl to your home?”
“Don’t put it like that. Aren’t we brothers?”
“That’s right, we are brothers! So bro will crash at your place tonight… You think I’d say that?!” Throwing the candy bag on the ground, the little demon king blew up.
“Don’t even think about tricking me into acting as your body pillow! I’ll have you know, I’m a person with principles. I’m not going to be your body pillow just because you say so…” Her voice gradually got quieter as Eiru looked at a certain order placed on Yuki’s phone and swallowed…

“Fruit-filled heart gummy candy, arriving this afternoon… Will you give me some?” Pointing at her lips with her finger, she totally looked like she was tempted.
Are you seriously trying to lure me with candy? Do you think I’m stupid… But I really want to eat it. This is even a limited seasonal release… Damn rich people!
“So? Are you coming with me or not?” Actually, Yuki was just talking big. He originally bought it to give to her anyways. If she didn’t eat it, then worst case he’d just feed it to Eiru.
Besides, he didn’t actually think that he could get her to come over just because he had some candy. He just wanted to see how easily fooled this stupid loli in front of him was. After checking to see how tempted she was, he’d see how to educate her…
But seeing this conflicted expression, this girl wasn’t stupid enough to be randomly taken away by people…
However, Yuki completely overestimated the principles of the stupid loli in front of him. If he knew what His Majesty the Demon King was actually conflicted about right now, he’d probably give her a thorough drumming education on the spot.
“I… I…” Struggling hard in her mind, the little demon king expressed that she was a demon king after all, and shouldn’t so easily become someone else’s body pillow.
And most importantly, she had to go out tomorrow, so staying at Yuki’s house really wasn’t very convenient… Damn it, if she were leaving the day after tomorrow, then she would’ve just agreed on the spot…
