Demon King – Chapter 345 – Yuki in the Atmosphere

Is Yuki important in her heart? The answer was naturally yes. For this little girl, Yuki was the most important person in her life now.

Agui’s question was, for Eiru, something she didn’t need to ponder. But it triggered another line of thought—what exactly were her feelings for Yuki?

The two of them became close because of a time when an immature Yuki, distraught and contemplating ending his life, went up to the rooftop…

Out of boredom, wanting company, and unwilling to watch a familiar person erase their account and start over, Eiru chatted with him for a while. Her casual words of comfort ended up changing Yuki’s whole life.

Because Jiaqi had gone abroad, the usually lonely Demon Lord only wanted someone she could talk with, a companion who would keep her company…

At first she treated him as a replacement for Jiaqi, but after getting closer she gradually became dependent on Yuki.

Since she was lacking affection for years and already lonely after her childhood friend left, once Eiru again tasted the warmth of someone caring for her, she fell into it without restraint.

Brother? Friend? Or partner? Even now, the Demon Lord still didn’t clearly know what position she’d placed Yuki in. She simply interacted with him, never thinking about labeling it.

“I guess you care about him a lot?” Agui calculated inwardly. From his observations, he guessed this girl was the type who didn’t focus on herself much but cared deeply for people around her.

“Do you think you love him? Don’t get me wrong… I’m not trying to break you two up. I just want to help.”

“I don’t know. I do care about him, but I should…” Eiru lowered her head and hesitated. “I don’t think I can call it love yet.”

She was certain she hadn’t reached romantic love for Yuki. If she had to give it a name, she felt she was simply accepting his care and returning it with herself as a kind of repayment.

“That’s not related to the thing you asked earlier. Are you trying to switch the topic?” Remembering his filthy request, Eiru angrily shrugged his hand away and glared.

“Because you want to respond to him, right? Give him a gift?” Agui began his oily persuasion, trying to steer the girl’s thoughts.

“Think about it… wouldn’t he be happier receiving this gift? Wouldn’t his feelings for you grow stronger? And all you have to give are some insignificant things.”

“You call that insignificant?” Eiru sneered. “Even if we’re just trying things out, I’m still his girlfriend. Are you asking me to betray him?”

“No no no… times have changed. Don’t be bound by old ideas. Who hasn’t had a few relationships and spent their youth?” Agui waved it off.

“I consider myself experienced. I can give you a good time. You’ll be happy, your boyfriend will be happy…win win, right?” He grew excited and animated as he spoke.

“Plus I can teach you things. Gain the experience and later you can give him a better time. Since you care about him so much, don’t you want a complete and perfect experience for both of you?”

“So? Do you think he’d be happy if he knew about this?” Eiru frowned. “No matter how you spin it, if you have a partner, this is wrong, right?”

“Then don’t let him know. It’s just a small mistake with good intentions.” Agui continued to twist the logic, trying to coax her. ¹ KILL HIM ALREADY

“Like a little white lie, who hasn’t done a small wrong? You’re doing it for his sake. You get pleasure, money for gifts, and experience to give him a better time later. It’s just a traditional boundary with no real substance.”

Any sane girl would have slapped such twisted reasoning away. Agui dared to use this outrageous tactic because he knew this loli wasn’t like most girls.

His two childhood friends had earlier given him a lesson: this white-haired girl resembled a boy in many ways, so being direct was better than routine flirting.

That made him think of a previous theory… perhaps she’d been raised as a boy and therefore lacked typical female notions. He could invert the approach.

Watching Eiru fall silent and think, Agui’s face broke into a triumphant smile. The fact she hadn’t immediately pointed out the holes in his argument meant he was halfway there.

Whether or not he could succeed today, he’d planted a seed. There would be plenty of opportunities to influence her later… though he still had to beat her boyfriend to it.

“Forget it. I don’t like deceiving people, and I couldn’t hide it from him anyway. I’m going home. I’m a little annoyed.” After thinking a while, Eiru turned and prepared to leave.

“Take your time. If you change your mind, come find me.” Agui smiled with delight. Seeing her no longer so hostile, he was sure he’d won.

His judgment had not failed him: she lacked conventional female notions while caring intensely about those close to her. Using her concern for that boyfriend as an entry point, he could easily guide her thoughts.

Agui was ecstatic, feeling as if he might fly to the sky. What he didn’t know was that something so obvious to him was even more obvious to the person who understood Eiru best, Yuki.

Yuki had long guessed at his naive girlfriend’s immaturity and had prepared countermeasures—to simply protect herself, making one simple promise thwart all of Agui’s plans.

But because Eiru was unusually slow to judge others’ malice, Yuki had also given her a protective measure. This whole exchange had already ended in Agui’s complete defeat.

As Little Ya had said, this guy had problems. After greeting Yimeng and Xuanling and leaving the shop, Eiru covered her head with one hand and showed a helpless expression.

Looks like… I need to think of a way to trap this guy.
