Demon King – Chapter 306 – Rogue Yuki

“Class bell has been ringing for almost five minutes, are you really not going back to class?” Eiru tapped Yuki with her tail, pulling the silver-haired boy who was still savoring the scent of the girl back from his own world.

“No, I’m staying with you… I already told Jixian in advance, if I don’t go back he’ll help me ask for leave.”

After all, what’s more important than staying with his wife? Besides, what’s being taught now is something he already mastered, and his wife is facing such a huge problem here…

“So, can you tell me now… what’s wrong with your body?”

“Alright alright, I can tell you, but you have to promise me one thing…” The little Demon Lord scratched her head helplessly before turning around and straddling Yuki’s legs, taking on a serious expression.

“Mm, say it.”

“I don’t want my matters to affect your life, so after you know, you can think of ways to help, but your life still has to go on as it should… understand?”

Hearing this, Yuki’s brows immediately furrowed. From her words, the problem seemed very serious…

“Hey, are you listening? Do you promise or not?” Seeing him dazed, Eiru who was sitting on his legs bounced a few times in dissatisfaction, forcing him back to his senses.

“Mm, I promise… but on that premise, I’ll still put you first in everything, I hope you also understand this.”

“Do whatever you want…” Eiru sighed. “Anyway, don’t get too agitated at what I’m about to say about my body…”

“What? Your organs have been degenerating all along? It’s already gotten serious enough to have abnormal reactions like today from time to time?” Even with mental preparation, Yuki almost jumped up.

“Mm, thinking carefully… it probably started when I was six or seven, but back then I didn’t understand, so I just thought my health was poor.” Her Majesty the Demon Lord awkwardly scratched her face with her finger. “Originally I was relying on my demon recovery power to neutralize it, so it was fine.”

“Then why is it like this now? Where’s your demon recovery power?”

“Maybe I overdid it during military training, so it went on strike? Anyway it hasn’t come back… didn’t I keep pestering you for massages those few days after it ended?” The little Demon Lord spoke helplessly, playing with her own tail.

“No, I have to help you find a doctor to solve this… don’t worry, I’ll definitely find one trustworthy who’ll keep your condition secret!” Yuki was still very agitated. He had just confessed, and now his little girlfriend was showing signs of dying, who could accept that?

“Did you forget what you just promised me?” Eiru tapped Yuki’s forehead. “You’re still a student, okay? Don’t worry about so many things beyond your ability…”

“The more people who know the more risk. Even without mentioning secrecy… I’m a demon, are you sure human doctors can treat me effectively?”

“As a completely new species, unless you bring in a whole team of biologists to slice me up for research for ten years or so, how are they going to determine a treatment plan? And where would you even get the facilities?”

Her best friend starts to easily overlook logistics when he gets fired up, so she always has to remind him to calm down. Putting effort in a meaningless direction is just wasting time.

“I can guarantee you my problem absolutely can’t be solved by science… humans can’t handle my issue, no matter who you find. The reason I didn’t tell you before was because I was afraid you’d waste effort on these useless things and it’d affect your life instead.” The little Demon Lord patted Yuki’s head, smiling faintly as she explained in a calm tone.

“But…”

“Relax, I’m suppressing the organ degeneration with magic now, at least for a long time it shouldn’t be a problem… probably…” Afraid he’d continue pursuing the issue, she chose to downplay her condition…

And she wasn’t lying. As long as her magic was sufficient, nothing would happen in the short term. The biggest problem right now was her shortage of mana.

Originally she’d planned to go wild before she died, but because of her best friend’s confession, a sense of responsibility made her unwilling to leave the world so soon. Her rekindled desire to survive made her resume sunbathing and saving mana whenever possible.

“So that’s why you’ve not been taking male form recently?” Because she had explained before, Yuki knew that in male form her magic use was restricted.

“Mm, aside from being unable to suppress my degeneration in my male form; although cognitive interference and illusions are much more troublesome to operate magically, compared to disguises they do save a lot of mana…”

“Mana can be replenished just by energy right?”

“I told you before, solar energy, electric energy, wind energy or even nuclear energy I can swallow all together… as long as my body can take it I can convert it to mana, and I can also use magic to improve my body’s tolerance.”

“Good, find a time soon to come with me to my house…”

“Ah?” The little Demon Lord was stunned. Wasn’t this topic jump too fast? How did it suddenly jump to going home?

“You’re… taking me to meet your parents? We’re only trying out dating… too fast! Too fast! I haven’t even fallen for you yet!” Eiru waved her hands as her eyes turned into spirals, completely flustered.

“And also, if you bring me back like this… your parents will definitely see me as some fox spirit seducing you and tear me apart!”

“What are you thinking?” Yuki was directly amused by her words. “This isn’t your first time at my house, and you’re my little demon, not a fox spirit.”

“And bringing you home is to charge you up, silly girl… you can absorb electricity right? I don’t know how much you need, but I’ll pay the electricity bill.” He said as he reached out and poked her little head.

“But as payment you have to stay by my side all the time accompanying me… without my permission you’re not allowed to run off on your own, okay?”

“Wow? You’re actually bribing me with the electricity bill? Am I that cheap?” The little Demon Lord bounced twice in dissatisfaction. “No way! Add more!”

“Add as much as you want, I just want you to stay with me…” Yuki hugged the girl and spun her half a turn, letting her lie back in his arms. After all, to him, she was the most precious treasure in the world…

“But speaking of which, I only kissed your neck once… Lu Brat you’re amazing, you almost wet my pants.” He pecked her face lightly, admiring her cute blushing cheeks, and started teasing her.

“Damn! That’s your fault isn’t it? And you call that once? Also! Touching my legs is one thing… don’t say things like that while moving your hand there!”

Translator Note

Yuki is a pervert! But I’m really glad that he finally managed to coax Eiru’s illness from her. At least now, he can use his rich young master powers to help her!
