Demon King – Chapter 351 – “Insurance Mechanism”… What the heck!?
Demon King – Chapter 351 – “Insurance Mechanism”… What the heck!?
“Dog man! All you know how to do is seduce my sister!” At the boundary between dream and reality, a silver haired loli slammed the table and stood up, her face full of frustration and grief.
Unlike everyone else, Miss “Insurance Mechanism” had absolutely no way to avoid that dog food couple outside. Forced to watch from a first person perspective, forced into a VIP seat, she was going crazy.
“Please do something proper and stop feeding dog food! Why do I have to be forced to accept her memories! Watching this feels like I’m the one getting hit on by Yuki bro. This is too poisonous!”
Scolding the inhuman behavior of those two outside, Miss “Insurance Mechanism” rolled around in the empty space.
“She used to be closest to me…” Lying on the ground, the silver haired girl puffed her lips in grievance.
She might not interfere with her sister’s pursuit of happiness, but she really did not want her to just hand herself over so easily… Grumbling in her heart, Miss “Insurance Mechanism” had her memories pulled up…
——Dividing Line——
“You really want to seal everything?” Looking at the silver haired girl in front of her raising both arms and fiddling with a big sphere of light, Miss “Insurance Mechanism” was speechless.
“From the moment I separated you, the ritual already started ok?” Young Eiru stretched out a hand and tapped the “Insurance Mechanism” on the head in the void.
“Haven’t the two of us been tired enough hiding it for the past half year?”

“So you’re just throwing the mess to your future self?”
“What else? I can’t handle it now… this is the best way right? Also you are obviously part of her, why do you feel so much more mature than the original?” The little demon tilted her head, examining the girl who looked no different from herself.
“Who knows. I represent her non-human part…” She shrugged. Miss “Insurance Mechanism” did not even know what to say for a moment.
“Speaking of which, I’m going to stay in your head for a long time after this. Do you need me to help with something?” Because after the ritual, Eiru would forget everything now. Miss “Insurance Mechanism” still felt some backup plans were necessary.
“Oh yes…” While talking, Her Majesty the Demon Lord handed over a ring… a ring that looked no different from the one on her tail.
“Because of the ritual side effects and incomplete body composition, my body will keep weakening… so please help me roll back the save then~”
“Mm, anything else?” Because they shared thoughts, Miss “Insurance Mechanism” quickly understood and took the ring.
“That’s it.”
“Oh good… just that… what the hell? Just that?” She reflexively agreed, then realized something was wrong.

“You’re kidding right? Nothing else? Just this little? It’s going to be a long time, and what if that day comes and your memory hasn’t recovered…”
“Relax, I’ve calculated it. The seal should last until I’m around sixteen to eighteen. I’ll probably recover my memories then right?” Eiru waved it off, one hand keeping the magic ritual active.
“No, but you separated me, yet didn’t seal me with you, and even kept my consciousness properly… weren’t you trying to make me an insurance mechanism?” A rollback could clearly be set with a timed trigger. If there were no important matters, her sister had no reason to drag her out.
“No. It’s just fun~” Sticking out her tongue, Eiru made a funny face at her.
“Sure enough, little Ya is still little Ya. Your serious face is especially fun~”
“Fun my head! Can you be serious!” “Eiya” roared, “This concerns our lives. Even if you calculated everything, at least… at least…”
“At least give you something to do. So I gave you the rollback job.” The little demon obviously knew what her sister was thinking. This girl was like her, always wanting to be of use to someone.
“But just that little…”
“The rest is free play. Stay in my head and have fun. Honestly I don’t even know what my future life will be like~ being watched all the time, it’s kind of embarrassing.” The little demon’s face showed a blush.

“Alright alright that’s it… If I do something stupid later, you’re not allowed to laugh, ok~” Eiru grinned. With a wave of her hand, “Eiya’s” body lost control and floated up.
“Wait! Sister! I haven’t—”
“Get in!” With one forceful swing, the demon turned sister tormentor tossed her sister’s soul and memories into the giant sphere of light…
“Wait till I get out! I’ll beat youuuuu!”
——Time returns to now——
“Tch… stupid sister…” Shaking her head to regain herself, “Eiya” gloomily accepted the lovey dovey memories from the girl outside.
Yes, this silver haired loli was never an insurance mechanism. That was just a random title she used in front of that girl. She was tricked for so long. Seeing a chance to get payback, of course she would not miss it.
When she accidentally became a demon, Eiru panicked and still first told her sister. The two hid it from the family for half a year.
After that, when they discovered Eiya’s condition, Eiru boldly used sealing methods, stripping the Daughter of Amber Crystal portion from her sister then sealing it into herself. That was the origin of the “Eiya” inside her mind.

Because this seal involved soul and memory, Eiru needed to use her own memories as chains. And she was tired of hiding her identity from everyone, so she just sealed her original self together with those memories.
That was why Eiya accepted her brother turning into a loli so quickly. One, she had already lived with her loli sister before. Two, there was another version of her in that loli’s head constantly resonating and interfering.
“So when can I go back… you didn’t even give a time.” “Eiya” lay on the floor, resting her chin on her hands like a child whining.
After watching her sister’s entire life these past years from a first person perspective, she really wanted to complain about her stupidity after losing her memories. She was dying to go back and use her body to roast and mock her.
Maybe the term “frenemy” refers to the two of them.
