Demon King – Chapter 433 – Unlucky Classmate Ziyu

The next morning, the little Demon Lord slipped out of campus again in her formal outfit to go have fun. Go to class? Impossible, absolutely impossible…

This time though, there was an extra little “hat” on her head. A certain little guy was sprawled on top, making excited goo-yi goo-yi noises, looking especially happy.

Since at this stage only Eiru could communicate normally with the little guy, the dorm’s babysitters collectively went on strike. No matter what, today this girl had to take care of the kid herself.

With no other choice, Eiru could only head out with the little guy perched on her head. She was just wandering around anyway, and using magic to disguise and conceal it was not difficult.

“Morning, Little Ru.”

With nowhere in particular to go, Her Majesty the Demon Lord once again ran over to the river embankment. As expected, she spotted a familiar figure playing with river snails.

“Morning.”

After responding politely, the two girls sat together and chatted off and on.

“Oh right, Little Ru, do you maybe… have an older brother?”

After casually chatting for a bit, Eiru remembered what she had seen that morning and tentatively asked.

“Yeah… I do have an older brother…”

Giving an affirmative reply, Liru’s mood visibly dropped after hearing the question, her usually lively demeanor dimming.

“Ah, sorry, sorry… let’s change the topic?”

Seeing this, the little Demon Lord realized she had said something wrong and quickly apologized, steering the conversation elsewhere.

“By the way, before you met me, were you always playing here alone?”

“Yeah… before meeting you, I was always here by myself all these years.”

Not being particularly good at chatting, Eiru could only awkwardly talk like this. As for why they were not playing small games like usual, the answer was right there on her head.

The little brat did not know what was going on today. After making a fuss for a while, it actually fell asleep just like that. It had gone to bed early yesterday too. This little guy was always curious about everything around it, so there was no way it should look like this after coming out to play.

It looked utterly exhausted, like its whole body had been drained. If Eiru had not checked and found nothing wrong with its body, she would have suspected it was sick.

And the result of that check only confused her more. The little guy had actually consumed too much power. It was overdrawn.

So helping Ziyu apply a buff was really that tiring? This made Her Majesty the Demon Lord feel even more that this little thing was unreliable. But considering that Ziyu’s opposite-sex attraction buff did not discriminate by species and had such a wide range, a large consumption was at least understandable.

At the same time, in the Honor Class classroom at Seventh High. Morning self-study had just ended, and during the break, Ziyu was holding a bottle of mosquito repellent and spraying himself…

“Other guys spray cologne, and you spray mosquito repellent. That’s really… unique.”

Jiaqi was holding back laughter. He had already heard about the little guy’s deeds from Yuki.

No matter how strong that buff was, were you not a bit too confident? You think spraying mosquito repellent is enough to pick up girls?

“Don’t mess around. This is for repelling bugs. Who’s dumb enough to use mosquito repellent to attract girls?”

Ziyu replied while spraying himself, but he still felt like all sorts of things were approaching him.

“This is seriously cursed. Didn’t hook a single girl, but bugs are everywhere. I even get harassed by stray cats and dogs when I go out. It’s ridiculous.”

Ziyu complained about his miserable experiences these past few days. Yesterday he had even seen two fat rats hop into the middle of the road to block him.

“But with what you’re doing, who are you supposed to hook?”

Yuki had also heard their conversation and joined in.

Given Ziyu’s performance lately, Yuki could only say he deserved it. Thinking that having a buff meant he could rest easy, he literally sat there waiting for girls to come to him. Even waiting by a tree stump for a rabbit was not as shameless as this.

The buff the little guy gave did not discriminate by species. And the higher the intelligence of the individual, the weaker the influence. Not to mention that most girls were relatively reserved. Even if they had a favorable impression, very few would actively come up to strike up a conversation.

Animals and insects did not have such considerations. They only felt that this person was attractive, so they came over to see what kind of monster this was.

That was why Ziyu had been surrounded by all sorts of strange things these days. With scenes like that, naturally even fewer girls dared to approach him…

These past few days, Ziyu also realized that the things he bought the most were camphor balls, insecticide, bug repellent, mosquito repellent… No matter how thick-skinned he was, he should have noticed something was wrong by now.

Thinking more carefully about what Eiru had translated for him back then, Ziyu’s face instantly darkened. He had said he wanted to find a girlfriend. Anyone would do.

‘Fine. Little Princess, you set me up.’

Having belatedly realized something was wrong, Ziyu now only wanted classes to end as soon as possible so he could find Eiru and cancel this deadly buff.

If this kept up, the school would probably really gain a new legend. The insect man who smells like mosquito repellent. Seeing a mantis on the flowerpot by the classroom window staring straight at him, Ziyu suddenly felt a chill in his heart.

“No, my nasal cavity has already been completely occupied by the smell of mosquito repellent…”

Jiaqi lay sprawled on his desk, pounding it as he laughed uncontrollably. Forget everything else. Just the fact that mosquitoes deliberately flew past him to bite his deskmate was enough to keep him laughing for a whole week.

“Damn it, believe it or not, I’ll make you drink mosquito repellent later?”

“Go on, try. If you dare, once the mosquito repellent runs out, you’re still the one getting bitten. When that happens the mosquitoes will wrap you into a ball.”

Faced with the threat, Jiaqi was not flustered at all and immediately fired back.

“Hey hey hey, stray cats and dogs ran into the teaching building again!”

At this moment, a student sitting by the window shouted out. Things like this always drew everyone’s attention.

Since the Seventh High campus was not small, there were naturally some stray cats and dogs around. Normally, some students liked to feed them with sausages or leftovers downstairs. Over time, these cats and dogs had long since grown fat like balls.

Although everyone was used to stray cats and dogs, with security guards downstairs, it was still relatively rare for them to run into the teaching building. Combined with academic pressure, like stirring up a crowd, everyone was very interested in this kind of thing.

“Fuck, it’s that fat dog again! I’m out!”

From far away, Ziyu spotted the meatball running on stubby legs. This thing had especially liked blocking his path these past few days. Had it finally come looking for him today?

“Safe travels…”

Glancing at Jiaqi beside him who was laughing so hard he was twitching, Yuki held back his laughter and called out to the roommate who was fleeing in panic.

And so, a scene like this played out in the teaching building corridor. A chubby dog and several fat little cats chasing a certain unlucky man all the way…

It was not until the class bell rang that the security guards downstairs, having received the news, arrived belatedly and chased the fat dogs and fat cats back out…
