Demon King – Chapter 435 – The Demon Lord’s Obedience Ring

After a while, the little guy had already recovered its energy. After conveniently solving Ziyu’s problem, it was now flicking its fluffy squirrel-like tail, bouncing around the dorm room while happily chirping goo yi goo yi.

In contrast, there was the silver-haired girl who had completely overdone it. Right now she looked utterly listless, her whole body soft and limp as she lay sprawled in Yuki’s arms.

Looking at his little girlfriend like this, Yuki felt both angry and heartbroken. Even though he had separated the two in time and prevented this dumb girl from completely draining her mana, the impact on her was obviously still severe.

“Feeling satisfied now? Told you not to get carried away, and now you’re completely flattened, huh?”

Yuki spoke irritably as he curled his fingers and flicked Her Majesty the Demon Lord on the forehead.

“Ugh… don’t hit me, it hurts…”

The little Demon Lord let out a pained whimper. Compared to the playful taps from before, Yuki was clearly using real force this time while he was annoyed.

“Now you know it hurts?”

Yuki said, still speaking as he shot a fierce glare at the little creature that was still lively and hopping about.

“Goo yi?!”

Startled by Yuki’s glare, Hulu flapped its wings in a panic and dove straight under the head of the big cat who was obediently lying on the desk.

“???”

Gulu was momentarily confused by the sudden intrusion. Not really understanding what was going on, it stretched out its cat paw and gave the little thing below a series of pats and rubs on the head.

Meanwhile, the Demon Lord who was still whining and acting spoiled suddenly felt a hand groping along the tail she had laid by her side. Tilting her head slightly, Eiru realized Yuki was holding onto her tail, apparently planning something.

“What are you doing?”

She did not know what he intended, but in her current state she truly had neither the will nor the strength to resist. She could only ask softly while leaning limply against his chest.

“This ring, can it be taken off?”

With some scheming thoughts in mind, Yuki came up with a way to punish this stupid girl.

“It can, I guess, but what are you planning?”

Faced with Yuki’s question, the Demon Lord did not think much of it. She reached out and casually removed the Authority Ring that was looped around her tail.

In fact, unless Eiru herself took it off, no one else could remove the ring no matter how forceful they were. Even if someone cut off the tail, it would still be impossible to take the ring off.

Partly because she did not think too much, and partly because she was a little afraid Yuki might try to snatch it forcefully later, Her Majesty the Demon Lord obediently removed the ring and placed it into Yuki’s hand.

“Don’t mess around with it, it’s really sensitive…”

After giving that reminder, Eiru collapsed back into Yuki’s arms again. The way she looked so unconcerned made it seem as if she had handed him something completely insignificant.

“Alright, I won’t mess around…”

Yuki showed a triumphant smile, though he truly was not planning to do anything right now. After all, with so many people around, even if he wanted to mess around, this was definitely not the time.

“But… this is confiscated. I’ll give it back once you start behaving and learn to be obedient.”

Leaning close to the girl in his arms, Yuki whispered words that were downright horrifying.

“????????”

Her Majesty the Demon Lord was now truly full of question marks. This thing was, in a certain sense, her weakness. And if it was taken away, she would not be able to use any of her authority at all.

“Wait, you!”

Eiru was just about to scramble up and snatch her ring back, when a wave of numbness spread through her entire body. She collapsed spectacularly. This time she was not acting cute. She really went down.

“Don’t move around. Once you behave, I’ll naturally give it back to you.”

Looking at his little girlfriend’s aggrieved and resentful expression, Yuki suddenly felt a strange sense of conquest in his heart.

‘Go on, keep being bratty. Yuki felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction at this moment.’

Watching this troublesome girl suffer a setback made all the grievances he had endured during this period feel completely worth it.

“What are they… doing?”

The three people below looked completely baffled. The interaction between the two above was beyond their understanding.

“Don’t worry about it. Couples’ stuff, don’t stick your nose in.”

“This is called tacit understanding between lovers. Single dogs shouldn’t even try to think about it.”

“My ring…”

In the morning, the little Demon Lord sat on the bed, staring blankly at the tail between her legs that was missing something, wearing an expression as if she was doubting her entire existence.

Yuki and the others had naturally gone to class. Of course, the confiscated Authority Ring had also been taken away by him. However, Yuki had specially prepared a dedicated soft padded container for it, so there was no need to worry about damage from bumps or collisions.

But now Her Majesty the Demon Lord truly did not dare to run around recklessly anymore. The most important thing she possessed was currently in someone else’s hands. If she kept running around and Yuki got annoyed, all it would take was a slight squeeze and the unlucky one would be her.

Even though she knew Yuki was not that kind of sadistic person, what if he decided to lightly pinch it a couple of times just to remind her to return to the dorm or something? That uncomfortable feeling of having something so important not on her own body inevitably made the girl start overthinking.

What does he actually want to do? What even counts as being obedient? What do I have to do before he’ll give the ring back?

“Am I not obedient?! Is there anyone in this world more obedient than me?! I clearly listen to everything you say… wuu… bad guy.”

Her Majesty the Demon Lord clutched her head and spiraled into frustration. Frustration upon frustration, until the whole girl started feeling wronged again. The two beasts, Gulu and Hulu, who were playing nearby, stopped their antics and turned to look at her.

Watching Eiru go from frustrated to aggrieved, the two not-so-bright little brains looked at each other. After a brief moment of confusion, they gave up on thinking altogether and resumed playing with each other again.

“Isn’t that the ring on the little princess’s tail? Why did you bring it out? Wait, so this thing can actually be taken off?”

Ziyu was just about to chat with Yuki when he suddenly noticed an exquisite little box on Yuki’s desk. Inside was something extremely familiar.

“Yeah. If I want her to behave, I can only be a bit ruthless.”

Yuki replied while cleaning and replacing the soft padding inside the box.

“Behave? Ruthless?”

Not understanding the situation, Ziyu looked over at Jiaqi, trying to get some answers from Eiru’s childhood friend, but Jiaqi simply shook his head, indicating that he did not understand either.

“It’s nothing. As long as I take this thing out, Little Lu will behave. Just think of it as a demon race constitution thing,”

Yuki could not be bothered to explain further. From a sensory standpoint, this ring was indeed very delicate.

If he said too much, these two would really start thinking he was a pervert. And there was no guarantee that a certain self-proclaimed childhood friend would not suddenly explode and turn into a righteous crusader on the spot.

“It can make Lu Brat behave?”

Hearing this, Jiaqi was immediately intrigued. There’s something like that? Get me one too, I want to teach that insanely bratty Lu Brat a lesson as well.

Seeing the way Jiaqi stared at the box in his hand like a predator eyeing its prey, Yuki instantly felt some regret. He really had said too much after all.
