Demon King – Chapter 277 – How Are You Already Showing Off?

“Stupid Yuki, Stupid Yuki! This is delicious!” Sitting on Yuki’s lap, the little Demon Lord’s eyes sparkled, looking just like some silly girl who had never seen the world.

Since turning into a girl, you’ve gotten a lot more lively… Yuki smiled as he cut off another small piece of steak and fed it into the girl’s mouth in his arms.

Because the girl didn’t understand these kinds of things at all, ordering food was left to Yuki in the end—he knew her tastes anyway, so he definitely knew what she liked…

And Yuki also took special care of his best friend, not only choosing things she would like, but also deliberately hiding the prices… After all, with her personality, if she knew the price she’d definitely turn tail and leave.

Even if she sat down already, she’d probably stress herself out later about owing a favor and repaying debts… In the end, even though this girl always talks about wanting to be spoiled and not working hard, in reality she’s someone who cares a lot about her pride.

“Ah~” Opening her mouth wide while waiting to be fed, Eiru had completely let herself go in her true form… but thanks to the past two or three years of being together, Yuki had completely accepted it, or rather gotten used to it all.

“I’m full, I’m full…” Leaning against her best friend’s chest, Her Majesty the Demon Lord held her belly and let out a satisfied sound.

“By the way, how much was this meal? Let’s split it.”

“I’ll pay, it wasn’t expensive, don’t worry…” Yuki looked at the silly girl in his arms with a smiling face, telling a lie that wasn’t really a lie—because to him it really wasn’t expensive.

Just think of it as an investment in chasing his wife, what’s a bit of money? He’d have to spend tons more on her in the future anyway, no way a single meal would stop him. At least, that’s what a certain wealthy person thought…

“Oh, that’s fine then… next time I’ll treat you.” Since he said that, Eiru didn’t press further, then hopped off of him.

“Hurry up and pay the bill so we can go back, I haven’t bathed yet…” The little Demon Lord turned her head and stretched out her hand to Yuki. “Let’s go, let’s go…”

“Alright alright alright…”

—Back at the dorm—

“What did you say? No water?!” Hearing the news, Eiru stomped her foot on the spot in anger.

After eating they’d picked up some things, and by the time they returned it was almost the end of night study… Jixian and Ziyu had long since slipped back into the dorm.

“I haven’t bathed yet! Why did the water suddenly get cut off!” Eiru grumbled on the spot. After all, she would never get in bed without taking a bath…

“I still can’t imagine this person is Lu Brat…” Watching the super cute girl’s antics, Ziyu leaned over to whisper to Jixian, and the latter nodded, agreeing.

“But she really is, we can’t help it… but living with a lolita in our dorm is just too much…”

“But she’s lived here like this before…”

“That’s right! I can go back home to bathe!” The little Demon Lord smacked her palm as she thought of an idea. Just as she was about to sneak out through the balcony, her beloved best friend grabbed her back.

“Look at the time, and you still want to go out? Stay put…” Yuki wasn’t about to let her wander around this late at night, even if she was strong enough to take down a whole gang of thugs by herself.

“But if I don’t bathe I can’t get in bed! Even if I’m not dirty, it feels awful!” The Demon Lord protested, looking like she was ready to fight to the end if he didn’t let her out…

After lights-out, the little Demon Lord looked at Yuki holding her in his arms, and started questioning her life—who am I? Where am I? Why am I on Stupid Yuki’s bed? ¹ …Well, I guess that’s a solution

“Brother Yuki this is unfair, only you get to hold a loli… how are we supposed to sleep like this?” Ziyu protested. Everyone here is single, why do you get to hug her?

“Come here little princess, you can sleep with me too…” Mischief-loving Ziyu patted the empty space at his side, calling to the silver-haired loli across from him…

“Ah? Oh, okay…” Still in a daze, Eiru didn’t react. Then she remembered Yuki had a girl he liked, so she got up, intending to climb into Ziyu’s bed instead.

“Don’t mess around, get back here.” With Yuki’s unhappy tone, the little Demon Lord who had just sat up was pulled straight back into his arms…

No way, this is my wife, she only sleeps with me! I’ll fight anyone who tries to take her! Yuki glared at the guy across from him, who immediately shrank back and obediently lay down…

“Eek… such a scary mother, this is what a protective parent looks like?” Ziyu joked, but of course he wouldn’t really let the girl sleep with him. She looked way too young—one simply couldn’t, or at least shouldn’t… ² …

“Why do I feel like I got the short end of the stick?” Her Majesty frowned, it sounded like he was treating her like Yuki’s daughter—that makes her a whole generation younger, doesn’t it?

“Don’t listen to him, we’re best bros, right?” Yuki quickly reassured her, to prevent her from getting any wrong ideas—he had to stop this girl from running away from his bed no matter what…

“That’s true…” Swaying her tail, Eiru turned around and hugged her best friend in front of her, with her lower body temperature she especially enjoyed his warm embrace…

“Mmm~ so warm…” The Little Demon Lord looked satisfied, burying her head into his chest and nuzzling against him…

“Hey! You two, don’t overdo it! Some of us are trying to sleep!” As the one in the know, Jixian protested—you two aren’t even officially together yet, and you’re already showing off like this?

“Sorry sorry…”

“Guu~”

—One hour later—

“You’re not asleep, are you?” Looking at the silver-haired girl in his arms with her eyes closed and pretending to be asleep, Yuki asked softly…

“How did you know? I was pretending so well…” Sure enough, as soon as Yuki finished speaking, the little Demon Lord opened her eyes, her small head full of big doubts.

Heh, silly girl… Yuki chuckled to himself—just from your breathing pattern I can tell your every whim. Don’t underestimate me, silly loli… ³ wtf…

“You can’t sleep again? Are you worried about something?” Yuki dodged her question, since answering would make him sound like a creep. ⁴ Yuki. You are a creep.

“No, just I’m just nervous… I’m still kind of scared about your attitude toward me.” The sensitive Eiru had noticed his abnormal concern, leaving her unsettled and uncertain about what he really thought of her now.

“That’s why you just need to say it directly if something’s on your mind… Why hide it from me for so long?” Yuki smiled, reaching out to poke her delicate little cheek.

“Relax, it’s still the same as before. It’s just that now you’re a girl and more fragile, so I feel like taking care of you more… you know what state you’re in right now, don’t you?”

“Mm…” Hearing his answer, Eiru let out a sigh of relief, burying her head back into his chest.

She thought this idiot was trying to pursue her, but turns out she was overthinking… as long as they stayed bros, it was fine. Otherwise she might end up accidentally betraying someone—after all, she couldn’t handle some love triangle mess…

Translator Note

Relax Eiru, there is no love triangle. But Yuki def fumbled it here, but at least it was for a good reason. This girl is not mature enough for a relationship yet.
