Demon King – Chapter 203 – The Buff Author Once Again Wrote a Filler Chapter

After returning home and calling their parents, who were already at work, to let them know they were safe, Eiya turned to look at the silver-haired loli sprawled on the sofa, thinking about how to fix her bad habits.

Of course, the little Demon Lord had no idea what her sister was thinking. After sitting on the bus for so long, even though she slept most of the way, she was still tired…

But when she saw the pile of big bags still left unpacked in the dining room, Her Majesty the Demon Lord was glad she had taken the bus back. If she had gone by her dad’s car, she definitely would’ve been forced into hauling all that stuff again.

It was the same every time. Whenever they came back from their hometown, their dear dad and mom always brought back a mountain of things… Like for example, vegetables from their fields which their grandfather and uncle would shove onto them if there was extra.

And then there were the local specialties, snacks like fried rice grains, peanuts, and other little side dishes… Every time they returned from their hometown, it was like they were moving into a new house; the whole car was packed full.

“Stupid Qi, you’re staying here, right? Did you bring clothes? I’ll go get you a toothbrush and towel…” After resting a while, Eiru suddenly remembered that her childhood friend would be staying, so she got up to help him sort things out.

“Wait, what did you just say? He’s staying here?” Hearing that, Eiya lost her composure. “Where is he staying?”

“Of course with me, right, Stupid Qi…” Using her elbow to nudge Jiaqi beside her, Her Majesty the Demon Lord looked like it was the most natural thing in the world.

“Say that again? With who?” Eiya’s face instantly darkened. Her sister’s endless self-sabotaging behavior made her realize she really needed to hurry and start teaching her properly.

“Why are you so fierce…” Eiru was a little intimidated by her sister. “If not with me, is he supposed to sleep with you? Can you be normal, please?”

“You’re the one who’s not normal! You’re a stupid loli with no self-awareness at all!” Eiya grabbed her sister by the collar and shook her hard.

This hopeless sister had truly posed a daunting dilemma for her… Letting her share a room with a boy? She would never allow it.

And a girl’s bed was not something a boy could just casually lie on. Not to mention they had to hide it from their parents too. Letting her sister’s childhood friend stay in her room, or worse, giving up her own room—both were completely off the table.

“Don’t worry, I’ll sleep on the floor…” Only Jiaqi understood what Eiya was worried about, so he raised a hand and offered a reliable solution.

Eiya fixed her eyes on him, carefully sizing him up while she thought it over. Before he could get too uncomfortable and ask, she spoke to them both:

“That works, but I still don’t trust you. Once Mom and Dad are asleep tonight, I’ll come check. Don’t even think about trying anything with my sister!”

“What could he even do to me? He’s a wimp…”

“Shut up!” Eiru’s words were cut off halfway as Eiya silenced her. Her wings and tail drooped as she lowered her head and slunk away miserably.

With her sister being so clueless, if she wasn’t there to supervise, her sister would probably just let him sleep right in her bed. Who knew what those two, in the middle of puberty, might do if they lost control?

So stopping him from sucking on her hair or hugging her was actually secondary. Eiya felt the most important thing was protecting her sister’s chastity and fixing those dangerous ideas of hers.

For that, she decided she would sacrifice some of her sleep, sneaking in at night to prevent the two from pulling anything crazy—her sister’s chastity would be guarded by her!

“Although I do think my sister’s taste in people isn’t bad, and my impression of you is good. Sorry for overreacting earlier. Let me apologize…” Once Eiru left to prepare things, Eiya eased her tone and began talking properly with Jiaqi, who had also been her childhood acquaintance.

“But you know, she is a girl now, and honestly, she looks kind of dangerously attractive…” Eiya paused.

Her upbringing had been very good. In front of outsiders, she was always polite and well-behaved. But with her parents, Eiru, or Lin Miao, she would let loose and act spoiled. In short, she had been pampered a little.

And when it came to people she cared about, she could be impulsive… often leading to situations where her good intentions turned into bad consequences. Still, things usually stayed within a controllable range.

With her sister gone and her own temper cooled, Eiya realized she needed to discuss things calmly with Jiaqi. Her cheeks flushed red in embarrassment as she realized how rude she had been earlier.

“So it’s not that I don’t trust your character, it’s just… I think you understand what I mean. You’re a guest, and making you sleep on the floor isn’t right.” She was just about to bow deeply when Jiaqi quickly reached out and stopped her.

“No need, I get it, I get it… Honestly, this is for the best. Your sister really has too many issues right now, please do teach her how to be a proper girl…” Jiaqi sighed in relief, glad that he could finally talk normally with her.

By the time Eiru returned with things prepared, the two had already reached an agreement… and she walked in on them shaking hands like they had just sealed a deal.

Ah… as long as they’re getting along. That was Her Majesty the Demon Lord’s only thought as she saw the scene. She had been worrying about how to make them get along, but if they solved it themselves, she didn’t need to interfere.

“What do you want for lunch? I can cook for you guys…” Rolling up her sleeves, the Demon Lord looked eager, only to realize the other two were giving her strange looks.

“Why are you… staring at me like that?” Eiru stepped back, sensing danger in their eyes.

“No, it’s nothing… Just thought you looked really cute.” Jiaqi once again let his mouth run wild, and Eiya immediately elbowed him.

“Don’t you dare flirt with my sister!”

“Y-Yes… my bad…” Under her threatening glare, Jiaqi rubbed his side and quickly admitted fault.

“Let’s just order food or go out instead, my treat. With your hand like this, don’t push yourself, or you’ll just hurt yourself again.” Changing the subject, Jiaqi’s suggestion was the first thing Eiya eagerly agreed to—after all, she couldn’t bear to let her sister work either.

“But I should be the one treating. You’re the guest, my sister has no money, so it’s better if I cover it.” Eiya still had a sense of responsibility as the host. Basic manners had to be observed.

“No no, let me. I’m the guy here, no way I’d let two little lolis pay.”

“I’ll pay!”

“No no, I’ll pay…”

Watching the two argue over who would pay, the little Demon Lord was baffled—rather than just making up, why did it feel like they had struck some kind of shady deal?

This little demon lord is an idiot.
