Demon King – Chapter 541 – The Demon Lord Steps In to Smooth Things Over

“Ugh, my roommate kept a pet, and I got dragged into it and ended up with a warning too. Tell me, what kind of bullshit is this…?”

It was still their usual way of interacting, except today Gao Xuenan suddenly started pouring out her grievances to Yuki, looking as pitiful and wronged as possible.

Yuki felt absolutely nothing inside, and even felt like laughing a bit. Twisting the facts like this just to fish for sympathy… tsk tsk tsk.

After the footage was submitted, Gao Xuenan was naturally summoned by the school. But she kept playing the victim and stressing that she had just picked it up outside and only put it there for a bit, that it did not count as keeping a pet. That was how she only ended up with a warning.

Even so, she still felt that Yunyue had screwed her over, and when she once again started holding a grudge against her, she realized that the other party was not even coming back to the dorm anymore.

With no way to get revenge, all she could do was go around playing the victim and complaining. What she did not know was that Yuki happened to be one of the few people who knew the truth. He was simply too lazy to expose her.

“She’s the one keeping a pet, so how did it end up on me? Dragging innocent people down with her like this, doesn’t she feel even a bit guilty?”

The more she talked, the more pitiful she sounded. Her body also started leaning closer and closer to Yuki, looking like she was about to pounce into his arms the next second.

Seeing this, Yuki was startled and prepared to step in and stop her from getting any closer. But Gao Xuenan intended to use this chance to latch onto Yuki, so how could she possibly let him off so easily?

Just as Gao Xuenan was about to press herself against Yuki, a small silver-haired head suddenly popped out between them, directly separating the two. Her sudden appearance made both of them freeze on the spot.

“Ah? L-Lulu… sorry? I got a bit emotional, I didn’t mean it like that.”

Looking at Eiru staring at her with half-lidded eyes, Gao Xuenan felt a bit guilty and hurriedly tried to explain herself.

Stare…

“I won’t bother you two anymore. I still have some things to do, I’ll be leaving. You two have fun, okay…”

When something felt off, retreat was obviously the best option. Although Gao Xuenan looked calm on the surface, she was already panicking inside. She immediately slunk away and fled.

‘Damn it, she showed up at the worst possible timing. Couldn’t she have waited until after I hugged him? That way, this girl would definitely think Li Yuki betrayed her, and I could smoothly split them up…’

As she fled in embarrassment, Gao Xuenan felt more and more indignant. What she hoped for the most now was that Eiru was carefree enough to not let this affect her impression of her. If that girl became wary, splitting the two of them later would be a real pain.

“Lu Brat, why did you come out? Didn’t you say you weren’t feeling well and didn’t want to come?”

Eiru’s appearance really did catch Yuki by surprise. Fortunately, thanks to her suddenly popping out, Yuki was not pushed into an awkward situation.

“To help you out, obviously. What else did you think it was… If I didn’t come out, would you really have been able to stop her from hugging you?”

Straddling his lap, the little Demon Lord placed both hands on Yuki’s chest, tilting her small head. Her tone carried a very obvious without me you’d be hopeless vibe.

Even though he did not have a good impression of Gao Xuenan, she was still a girl after all. If she really leaned in like that, Yuki could not just outright shove her away.

Being afraid of using too much force and causing trouble was one reason. Another was that, even though he did not need to care about her feelings, Eiru had given him a task requirement. While trying to avoid provoking her dislike through his actions, Yuki really did feel at a loss just now.

That was why Her Majesty the Demon Lord knew this and came out to help her little boyfriend smooth things over. But she had another purpose in coming over, and that was to announce the progress of his mission.

“You won’t need to force yourself to deal with her anymore. The mission is already complete. You’ve worked hard these past days.”

The little Demon Lord reached out and patted Yuki on the head, leaving him completely confused.

“Huh? What? But she hasn’t directly shown anything toward me yet… There was some sign just now, but you interrupted it.”

“I found evidence. This was an unexpected bonus too. Why don’t you think about it? Why do you think I guessed that she would try to get close to you today, and deliberately came over to help you out?”

Eiru said with a smile, pulling out her phone and opening two videos on it.

“You mean…”

“Yup. She was using the excuse of complaining to hug and cling to a few other guys too. I recorded it all. The evidence is solid. They were even being ambiguous for quite a while.”

Showing Yuki her spoils of war, the Demon Lord’s face was filled with pride.

“So all my effort was for nothing? Well, that’s fine too. I really didn’t want to get close to her anyway… Next time you pull some handsome guy scheme like this, go find Jiaqi instead.”

Letting out a breath of relief, even though his effort turned out to be unnecessary, the result was good in the end. And it was not completely useless either, at least it made this girl jealous, right?

With enough evidence, Jixian should be able to see that person’s true colors clearly now. Letting them confront each other directly and helping him get away from a woman who was stringing him along emotionally as soon as possible was better than anything.

“Just now, when you saw her trying to hug me, how did you feel? You have to tell the truth, okay?”

Yuki teased her, reaching out to stroke the two horns on the loli’s head in his arms. The smooth and delicate feel had its own special charm.

“Unhappy! Super unhappy! If you just let people hug you so casually, then what am I supposed to be? Back then, it took me such a long time before you were willing to hug me…”

“Correction. Back then, it didn’t take long before you stuck yourself onto me and asked me to hug you. When it comes to giving yourself away for free, no one beats you.”

“Wow, what kind of bullshit is that? We’re good bros, what’s wrong with hugging? Letting you hug me isn’t giving myself away. I even wanted to let you feel good. You were the one who didn’t want to.”

“Hey, you’re a girl now. Have some restraint. Watch your speed.”

Yuki raised an eyebrow and lectured the foul-mouthed girl in front of him.

“Bleh bleh bleh. Look at you, grabbing my two horns like that. You really want to use them as a steering wheel that badly? But that works too. Saves me from tying twin tails. Pretty convenient, right?”

Holding down Yuki’s hands that were resting on her horns, the little Demon Lord looked at him with a teasing expression. Also known as someone who feels uncomfortable if she is not being mischievous, she not only did not slow down, she even stomped on the gas harder.

“Lu Brat, believe it or not, I’ll take you right here.”

“Bleh bleh bleh. Here? Do you even have the guts?”

Her Majesty the Demon Lord directly lay against his chest, narrowing her eyes as she felt his body heat.

“I don’t?”

Provoked like this, Yuki did not hesitate at all and grabbed the loli’s tail in his arms, even directly gripping the metal ring on it. What followed, however, completely shocked him.

“Mmmh… do whatever you want. Just take it as compensation. Today, you can bully me however you like…”

With a faint blush on her face, the little Demon Lord shyly curled up in Yuki’s arms. She did not resist at all when the ring was grabbed, looking completely like she was leaving herself at his mercy.

“I’m yours, so… however you treat me is fine~ Stupid Yuki~”
