Demon King – Chapter 407 – The Wig Is Finished, You Should Go Home

Everyone in the class was whispering about it. Yuki’s actions made them feel immense pressure. Everyone except Yuki’s two roommates.

“Did you hear that? Holy shit, I want to laugh.”

“I’m already laughing, no need to think about it. If they heard what Bro Yuki was actually asking about, they’d probably spit blood on the spot.”

Jixian and Ziyu were sprawled on their desks, holding back laughter. Others had no idea what Yuki was up to, but the two of them knew very well. The moment they saw Yuki run over to Jiaqi’s side, they had already guessed what that hopeless romantic was planning to do.

“Yeah, she really can’t be allowed to touch alcohol.”

Yuki nodded, sighing as he praised his own past decision.

“And also… she’s really scared of places like haunted houses, but she still loves running off to places like that to play.”

Jiaqi patted his own forehead.

“Compared to amusement park rides and stuff, she actually prefers exhibition-type places like zoos.”

“Huh? That’s pretty unexpected…”

Yuki was a little surprised. Judging from Eiru’s lively personality, most people would assume she liked more noisy, exciting activities.

Of course, it wasn’t that Eiru disliked amusement park rides. It was just that her enthusiasm for them wasn’t very high, because she herself already had the ability to simulate those kinds of things.

For example, roller coasters, bungee jumping, things like that gave her no sense of excitement at all. She could fly. As someone who could leave the atmosphere without any pressure, those rides were almost no different from the kiddie rocking cars in front of a convenience store.

“She’s loved all kinds of animals since she was little, and because she used to have a constitution that animals rejected, it’s more or less a regret in her heart. But aside from snakes. Lu Brat is really scared of snakes.”

“That I do know. That’s why when Gulu gets close to her, she’s always especially happy.”

Thinking back to how his little girlfriend was even afraid of that big cat scratching her at first, the corner of Yuki’s mouth couldn’t help but lift.

“So you coming to me to ask about all this is pretty pointless. Either it’s stuff you already know, or it’s things that are already outdated after I was abroad for several years. Not very useful at all.”

Jiaqi slumped onto the desk as he complained. To be honest, he still had a bit of a knot in his heart about his childhood friend being snatched away.

“I’m not satisfied. If I hadn’t gone abroad… Lu Brat would definitely have been mine. Our families are well matched, and both our parents would definitely have agreed to me marrying her.”

Jiaqi sighed. Back then, he really hadn’t had those kinds of thoughts about Eiru.

But after Yuki and Eiru confirmed their relationship, his unwillingness just kept growing. Still, there was no way he could do something as immoral as breaking up someone else’s relationship. All he could do was regret not realizing his feelings earlier and making a move sooner.

As for why he was so confident, that was because the relationship between their two families was genuinely very close. When they were kids, the adults even joked quite a bit about marrying Eiya off to him.

So if Eiru’s identity as a girl were exposed, Jiaqi was willing to guarantee that there would be absolutely no problem on the parents’ side. Compared to Yuki, he really did have a huge advantage in that regard.

“Childhood sweethearts can’t beat a sudden arrival…”

Jiaqi let out a dead-fish-like wail, making Yuki’s expression turn awkward as well.

“Then marry Little Eiya instead. You’re familiar with her anyway.”

Yuki patted Jiaqi’s back and joked half-seriously.

“No, no, I really see her as a younger sister. That’s impossible.”

Jiaqi waved his hands in refusal.

“When you’re too familiar, it’s really hard to develop that kind of feeling. With Lu Brat, it was only because I’d been abroad for so many years and grown a bit distant that I started feeling something.”

‘As if you’d grown distant from Eiya. She didn’t go abroad with you, okay?’

Yuki complained internally, feeling that this brother in front of him had basically planted a flag.

“Little Ya, the wig’s done. Put it on and try it?”

In the dorm room, the Demon Lord held up the finished wig in her hands and called out to her younger sister on the bed, who was hugging a certain big cat.

“Eh? Didn’t you say it wouldn’t be finished until the weekend? How did it get done so fast?”

Eiya’s voice from the bed carried a hint of dislike.

If the wig was done, didn’t that mean she had to run back to school? She hadn’t played enough here yet. And leaving Eiru alone here living with a bunch of guys really made her uncomfortable.

“Sis, how about you come back and live with me…”

Letting go of Gulu and placing her hands on the edge of the bed, Eiya poked her little head out and timidly suggested to Eiru below.

“I don’t really like you living together with a bunch of guys.”

“No way. I’m not going back to make myself uncomfortable. Just seeing their faces now annoys me.”

Her Majesty the Demon Lord rejected her sister’s suggestion without mercy.

“Aren’t you planning to skip grades and come over anyway? When you get here, I’ll live in the apartment with you then.”

Of course, that line was just to placate her. There was no way Liu Wan would agree to Eiya’s proposal, and Eiru knew that very well. Skipping grades was one thing, but transferring to Seventh High was a big problem.

Besides, Stupid Yuki would have objections, okay? Right now she was his husband. Their private world getting interrupted all day long. Even if he didn’t say it out loud, she knew he’d feel wronged. The considerate Demon Lord. Even though she still lacked awareness as a girl, she had already developed the kind of consideration couples have.

“Feels like there’s been a lot of relationship stuff lately… Stupid Wulong’s, Aunt Mu’s, and mine with Stupid Yuki…”

Calming down and thinking about it, the Demon Lord felt that there really had been a lot of things like this happening around her recently.

The Wulong girl was troubled because her boyfriend was cold toward her. Aunt Mu was troubled because the other party kept her at a distance and things weren’t progressing. Looking at it that way, it seemed her own situation was actually better.

“Try it on and see if it fits. If there’s no problem, I’ll send you back tonight. You’ve already missed several days of school. If it were me back in middle school, I’d have been beaten to death by our parents already. Don’t be so ungrateful.”

“That’s because Mom and Dad thought you were a boy, so they were stricter with you…”

Eiya muttered softly. Seeing her sister beckoning to her, she reluctantly climbed down the ladder from the bed.

“OK, it fits perfectly.”

Eiru looked at her handiwork with satisfaction. At this moment, Eiya had completely returned to the appearance of that black-haired girl, with no need to worry about her hair color giving her away anymore.

“Get used to it a bit. When sis… no. When big brother finds a solution, you won’t need to wear this anymore.”

Smiling, Eiru rubbed Eiya’s head, but there was something she couldn’t help feeling puzzled about.

The wig was made according to her own specifications, yet it fit Eiya exceptionally well too. Combined with the fact that the two sisters now shared clothes and even underwear…

“Little Ya, has your height changed at all recently?”

Her Majesty the Demon Lord reached out and measured the height difference between them, only to realize that their heights were now exactly the same. Back during summer vacation, she had been nearly ten centimeters taller.

“No, I think it’s settled. I feel like my appearance is gradually aligning with yours… it’s kind of creepy.”

As the person involved, Eiya couldn’t have failed to notice these things, but she didn’t have any clues either.

“Do all Daughters of Amber Crystal grow up looking the same? No, wait… I’m not a Daughter of Amber Crystal either. How about we ask Grandma together later? The older generation should know more, right?”

“That works…”

Eiya responded casually, but with Eiru’s reminder, she suddenly remembered something.

Grandma seemed to be able to recognize her sister as she was now. At first, she thought it was just misrecognition due to old age, a lucky coincidence. But now that she thought about it, things didn’t seem that simple anymore.
