Demon King – Chapter 171 – Big Mouthed Eiya

At noon the next day, a certain silver-haired loli sat on the sofa with her arms crossed, sulking and refusing to even glance at her younger sister beside her.

“Sis… don’t be mad anymore. I know I was wrong…” Eiya pleaded in a low voice, trying to coax her sister in front of her.

“I told you over and over to keep it a secret! It’s only been a few days and you’ve already spilled everything about me?” The little demon king was about to explode with anger. How did she end up with such a silly sister?

“I should never have told you in the first place! Do you want me to get kicked out of the house and end up homeless on the streets?”

“But it was Cousin Miao! He’s played with us since we were little… And he said he’d help us keep it secret too.” Eiya looked pitiful, resting her head against Eiru and trying to use her cuteness to calm Eiru’s anger.

“Did you ever think about what would happen if he couldn’t accept me like this and treated me like a monster?” Just thinking about it made Eiru feel scared… If her parents found out from this, then her life would actually be over.

Right now she was at least a miserable demon king who could maintain her lifestyle through part-time work. Although it was tough, life was still manageable… But if she got kicked out, she’d really become a pitiful loli begging on the streets.

“Wuu… But Cousin Miao isn’t that kind of rigid adult. He’s very understanding…”

“Alright, alright, stop acting cute with me. I’m really angry right now…” Eiru was halfway through speaking when the doorbell suddenly rang…

His Majesty the Demon King glared at her sister. Eiya, knowing she was in the wrong, could only quickly get up to open the door for whoever was outside.

“Oh, having a fight?” The person entering was naturally the two sisters’ cousin, Lin Miao. Having driven over, it took him quite a while to find a parking spot…

As soon as he entered, Lin Miao felt the tense atmosphere inside… Combined with what Eiya had told him before, he could roughly guess what the situation was.

“Long time no see, Eiru. You’ve changed quite a bit since you started middle and high school, huh?” Looking at the silver-haired loli sitting on the sofa looking sulky, Lin Miao at first was stunned, then quickly guessed her identity.

But honestly, a guy getting turned into a girl? That was crazy… Until he entered and saw her in person, Lin Miao had still been somewhat skeptical.

“Don’t tease me, bro… It’s not like I wanted to become like this.” The little demon king’s tone immediately softened as she turned to greet her cousin.

After all, she was still a rational person and could clearly distinguish between different people… Eiya had made her angry, but she naturally wouldn’t take it out on others.

“But bro, why are you accepting this so naturally… Isn’t it weird for a little brother you’ve watched grow up to suddenly become a little sister?” Regarding Lin Miao’s casual attitude, although it fit his personality, Eiru just found it strange.

“Haha…” Lin Miao suddenly laughed. “I’m not some old stick-in-the-mud. As long as you’re still Eiru, that’s enough…”

“Besides, don’t you know that looks are everything? You look much better now than you did before… I should be congratulating you.”

His words left His Majesty the Demon King speechless. This guy was still the same old Cousin Miao… Although he was very caring toward his younger cousins, this guy had teased and bullied her plenty when they were little too.

“But Eiya, although I’m touched that you wanted to consult with me… this really was your mistake. You should have discussed it more with Eiru…” Lin Miao suddenly turned to lecture Eiya beside him. “After all, you promised to help keep it a secret, right?”

“I was wrong…” Eiya’s face was full of grievance. Although her intentions were good, she had indeed betrayed her sister’s trust, so she couldn’t really say anything.

“But speaking of which… I really don’t have any particular feelings about you becoming a girl.” Lin Miao plopped down on the sofa, putting his hands on his back, and said something that made a certain loli’s expression change dramatically.

“Honestly, I think you should have been a girl all along. You were just born the wrong gender…”

“?” The little demon king slowly produced a question mark. “Bro, are you insulting me? Saying I’m feminine…”

To be fair, although she indeed didn’t like roughhousing with the other kids, she considered herself to be the more masculine type… Even Yuki, who often teased her, had never said she was feminine!

“That’s not it. How should I put it… Even as a kid, I always felt you were particularly androgynous. Not feminine exactly, but I felt like you were like a particularly lively little girl full of boyish spirit.”

“Huh?” Tilting her head, His Majesty the Demon King looked completely bewildered… Eiya also curiously leaned in to listen to their conversation.

“You probably don’t even remember, but when you were little, except for me, you never played with boys at all… You only played with girls. It wasn’t until you got older that you started talking to any boys.”

What? Was that real? Eiru’s worldview was shaken. She had always disliked dealing with girls, so how could she have such a past?

“So I think you were always supposed to be a girl, just born the wrong gender… Now congratulations on returning to your original form?” Reaching out to pat his cousin’s neck, Lin Miao had a playful expression.

“No wonder you started hiding from everyone in middle school. You were afraid of being discovered, right? Were you also skipping school because of this? Your parents complained to me about you skipping quite a bit…” Lin Miao pinched her little neck. “You used to especially like acting spoiled with me and your grandma in private.”

“Stop talking! Eiya’s still here!” This was basically public execution. These embarrassing memories made the little demon king’s face turn bright red.

“It’s fine, it’s fine. Now sis, you can totally act spoiled with everyone. It’s a loli’s privilege…” Eiya, who had been lying on the sofa back listening to their conversation, immediately joined in the teasing.

“Stop talking!!!”

——The Demon King Under Attack——

“If we leave now, we’ll probably get stuck in traffic. Let’s go later…” Lin Miao looked at the navigation display on his phone. “Before then, you two sisters can rest more or check if you’ve forgotten anything.”

“Oh…” Eiru sat in Eiya’s arms as the two sisters answered in unison.

“Good girl…” Lin Miao reached out to rub Eiru’s little head. For some reason, seeing Eiru in her current form gave him an irresistible urge to pat her head.

“Gwuu~” Squinting and slightly raising her head, a certain loli let him rub her little head.

Actually, Eiru herself wasn’t exactly sure when it first started, but she had come to particularly enjoy the feeling of having her head patted or rubbed.

Well, he was her big brother who had always spoiled her, so acting cute in front of him was nothing… Thinking this way, she leaned to the side and sprawled across Lin Miao’s lap, letting out a cute whimper of approval.
