Demon King – Chapter 404 – A Girl’s Emotional History

When a life was on the line, Eiru exploded with astonishing speed. Before Eiya could even react, she was already behind the girl, both hands grabbing her around the waist and dragging her back.

With a splat, as Her Majesty the Demon Lord yanked her away, the girl’s center of gravity was forcibly shifted. Her body fell backward and landed on top of Eiru. The two lolis ended up sprawled on the ground like that, one on top and one underneath, both with spiraling dizzy eyes…

“What’s so unbearable that you’d go straight to jumping into the river…”

More than ten minutes later, the three lolis sat side by side on the stone bench along the river embankment. Eiya tilted her head, gently trying to console the girl who had just attempted to end her life.

Faced with Eiya’s concerned questioning, the cute light-blond-haired loli stayed silent, offering no response. Her gaze shifted back and forth between the two sisters. After a long while, she finally spoke in an uncertain tone…

“Are you… Sika Deer? I’ve seen your photos in the guild group… but why are there two of you?”

That caught Eiru off guard. Anyone who would call her that had to be one of those idiots from the gaming guild. Who else could it be?

“No, I’m the real Sika Deer. This one is my little sister… by the way, who are you?”

After some explanations and mutual introductions, Eiru confirmed that the other party really was a member of her gaming guild. She was a girl whose online handle was ‘Wulong’. As for her real name, they did not know, and out of politeness, they did not ask.

“We always tease you as Wulong the little loli… turns out you really are a little loli? So what’s going on? You don’t usually seem this down.”

Since she was an acquaintance, Eiru relaxed her tone quite a bit. Eiya, standing to the side, tactfully handed the conversation over to the two of them.

“I… I got dumped… My boyfriend ignored me for a long time, and we even had a big fight yesterday.”

As she spoke, Wulong loli showed a look like she was about to cry.

“Uh…”

Eiru scratched her head, not knowing what to do for a moment.

So it was a relationship problem. This really was not something she was good at handling. And even if she wanted to deal with it, there was not enough information anyway.

Still, without saying she was some peerless beauty, Wulong’s looks were definitely cute. Her appearance was clearly above average, and her soft personality was adorable too. Her boyfriend probably did not cheat on her, right?

“Um, sorry to ask… Wulong, how old are you?”

Eiya keenly picked up on this point. Wulong was only a bit taller than the two sisters. Could this be some naïve girl who got emotionally scammed by some hardcore trash guy?

“Wulong is an adult. She’s nineteen this year, right?”

The little Demon Lord answered first.

“So, Little Ya, you should call her Sister Wulong.”

“You have to call her sister too. You’re only sixteen this year…”

Eiya rolled her eyes at her and shot back without backing down.

“Yeah, I just turned nineteen this year… I started school late for some reasons, so I’m still in high school.”

Wulong answered with her head lowered, still looking utterly dejected.

“So what exactly happened? Maybe I… no, Little Ya could give you some advice?”

Patting Wulong on the back, the little Demon Lord felt that this kind of thing was probably something girls were better at handling, so she corrected herself halfway.

“I’ve never dated before. Aren’t you dating Brother Yuki? Shouldn’t you understand this better?”

Faced with her sister dumping the problem on her, a bunch of question marks popped up over Eiya’s head.

“Honestly, I haven’t even fallen for Stupid Yuki. You girls should understand this better…”

“You’re also a girl, thank you. Don’t exclude yourself.”

“Then a human?”

“Can you be normal?”

—————

Because Eiru was an online acquaintance, and also because of her cute appearance, Wulong did not guard herself much against the two sisters. With the mindset that idiot online friends were all-purpose, she roughly explained her situation.

She met her boyfriend at a gathering among friends. He was an old classmate of one of her own classmates. He was not extremely handsome, but he was decent-looking. His polite demeanor left her with a good first impression.

After that meeting, the people who attended the gathering exchanged contact information with each other. Wulong was no exception, and she exchanged phone numbers with that boy.

After that, he launched an enthusiastic pursuit of Wulong. Girls always have a kind of expectation toward romance. Unable to withstand his intense pursuit, Wulong agreed at first with the mindset of just giving it a try.

After she accepted his confession, the boy became extremely attentive toward her. Daily care, constant concern, and a very romantic approach to dating gave Wulong a great sense of satisfaction and warmth.

Their relationship gradually heated up. Although they were not in the same school and usually could only stick together on weekends, as they grew closer and academic pressure increased, even on school days she would run to find her boyfriend whenever she had the chance, seeking comfort.

As time went on, Wulong realized she was becoming more and more dependent on him. Whenever she closed her eyes, her mind was filled with images of everything he did for her. She fell deeply in love with this boy who always showed care whenever she needed it.

Half a year into their relationship, on Wulong’s eighteenth birthday, under the slight stimulation of alcohol and the pink atmosphere in the air, she crossed that forbidden line with her boyfriend who came to celebrate her birthday…

After that, she went through the sweetest and happiest period of her life. The boy took even better care of her. Driven by love and adolescent hormones, pink stories happened between them from time to time.

But then one day, everything suddenly changed.

Without any warning, the boy’s attitude toward her suddenly became lukewarm. Although he still fulfilled his responsibilities as a boyfriend, and pink stories still happened often, he no longer treated her with that kind of romantic passion.

Unable to leave him anymore, Wulong could not understand what she had done wrong to anger him. She tried every possible way to salvage the relationship, but it was all in vain…

“So what did he say? Is he breaking up with you?”

Eiya faintly caught the scent of a scumbag and pressed further.

“No. He didn’t say he wanted to break up… but he’s very cold to me now. He’ll still occasionally say some sweet words, but there’s no dating attitude at all anymore… Only when I satisfy some of his demands does he become enthusiastic, but he quickly goes back to being like before.”

As Wulong spoke, she started quietly sobbing.

This kind of stringing a girl along felt very familiar…

Eiya was stroking her chin in thought when Wulong suddenly dropped a bombshell of a statement.

“For a while, when our relationship was at a low point, he asked me to do it with his good brother and close friend… I didn’t want to, but in order to win his heart back, I still agreed.” ¹ WAIT WHATTTT?! G*NGB*NGED ?!

“For a while after that, he treated me like we were passionately in love again… but not long after, he went back to being like that, and started asking me to do other things…”
