Demon King – Chapter 546 – The Demon Lord on Break Is Preparing to Go Home

A few days passed. After a brief slump, Jixian quickly pulled himself back together.

Knowing full well that he had caused his brothers a lot of trouble, he felt both grateful and a little guilty, so he treated everyone to several meals over this period.

That afternoon after school, the group was hanging out in the dorm as usual, chatting and slacking off. Only today’s topic was a bit… delicate.

“To be honest… I’m kind of… how should I put this…”

Jixian looked hesitant to speak, and the others stopped what they were doing, waiting to see what kind of stunt he was about to pull this time.

“If you’ve got something to say, say it. Stop dragging it out.”

“I kind of want to… chase after Yunyue?”

Scratching his head awkwardly, Jixian knew just how poorly timed what he was saying sounded. He had just been dumped and was already setting his sights on another girl. Even he felt embarrassed.

An eerie silence fell over the dorm. Everyone stared at Jixian with complicated expressions, but none of them commented.

“I know this sounds pretty scummy, wanting to chase another girl right after getting dumped…”

Jixian laughed sheepishly.

“That’s why I wanted to ask for your opinions. I’m honestly kind of embarrassed about it myself.”

A bunch of grown men were not exactly good at taking care of people. The only one who was good at it only knew how to take care of lolis. So over this period, Yunyue had been running around a lot. When it came to caring for Jixian and helping him walk out of his shadow, she had put in the most effort.

They already had some foundation in their relationship, and under these circumstances, it was only natural that Jixian would develop feelings for Yunyue. And the fact that he had recovered so quickly was, to some extent, probably thanks to this as well.

“I won’t comment much, but if you’re serious, and this isn’t just a moment of impulsiveness, then I won’t oppose it.”

Yuki was the first to break the silence. His words immediately sparked discussion among the others.

“No, putting seriousness aside for a second. You just broke up and you’re already chasing someone. That’d make her awkward too, wouldn’t it? I think you should slow down.”

“Yeah, yeah, I agree. Start as ordinary friends first. But that aside, she’s still staying in that room of yours, right?”

“Huh? Yeah, she is… She was going to move out, but me and the little princess talked her out of it.”

Jixian scratched his head. Besides the first time they persuaded her, after Yunyue’s dorm change application got approved, he went over again to ask her to stay.

It might sound harsh, but Yunyue’s reputation at school right now really was not suitable for staying in the school dorms. No matter who her roommates were, it would be hard to get along properly. The two she got along with, Qianmeng and Qianchen, were both day students, so Jixian still chose to strongly urge her to stay.

Maybe she could not resist the enthusiasm of the two of them. Even though she felt embarrassed, Yunyue agreed to stay a while longer. She knew the situation herself. To be honest, she was not exactly daring to move back to the dorm either.

“But if you want to chase Yunyue, the people who are close to her, besides Brother Yuki, would only be…”

As Ziyu said this, everyone turned their gaze toward the loli who had not participated in the conversation at all. They saw that she had half her body inside the wardrobe, not sure what she was busy packing.

“Lu Brat? Where are you going?”

Seeing Eiru clearly packing up to make a run for it made Yuki panic a little. If your wife is about to run, how could you not panic?

“Going home for a bit…”

An annoyed voice came from inside the wardrobe. It was obvious how resistant she was to this.

“No, did something happen at your place again? Is it Little Ya?”

Jiaqi also knew about his childhood friend’s dislike of going home. For her to suddenly take the initiative to say she was going back, did the sun rise from the west?

“Don’t mention it. Isn’t it break starting tomorrow? The teaching buildings are being renovated, so our classes are on break for a while… and then the school just had to send a notice to my parents.”

After learning that their child was on break, the two elders at the loli’s home immediately called and ordered her to come back. They even issued an ultimatum that if she did not come back, they would drive over to grab her.

From childhood to now, these eccentric parents might not have understood their child very well in many aspects, but when it came to catching people, they had maxed out that skill. Probably because Eiru liked sneaking out when she was little. When it came to finding people and dragging them back, these two had rarely failed.

“Rather than having them come over and grab me and escort me back, I might as well go back on my own. At least I can fight for some initiative that way.”

The little Demon Lord spread her hands. This trip back would be pretty long, and she had a lot of stuff to bring. There was also no shortage of things that absolutely could not be seen by her family.

Like clothes for her loli body, her game consoles, plush dolls she hugged to sleep at night… These were not things that were easy to deal with in front of those two. Better to pack them in advance and go back while they were not home to hide them properly.

“Damn it. Doesn’t that mean I won’t have my wife to hug for several days…”

Yuki looked utterly devastated. Just like the silver haired loli who could not live without him, he also could not get used to sleeping without a loli in his arms.

“Correction. Three weeks.”

The little Demon Lord sighed and placed the packed items on the table. She was even wondering if she should kidnap a certain big cat and bring it back with her.

Everyone knew that Her Majesty the Demon Lord’s body temperature was extremely low. Hugging someone to sleep was less a habit now and more of a necessity. So without Yuki, substituting a big cat did not seem impossible.

But the problem was that this was basically impossible. And looking at the clearly overnourished big cat, Eiru felt a bit dazed. Had this cat been this big before?

If she remembered correctly, a Maine Coon maxed out at about one point two meters, right? She was around one point four meters tall. So how was it that Gulu, when standing up, was taller than her?

Wondering if one day a king character might pop out on the cat’s forehead, Her Majesty the Demon Lord shook her head and threw away these random thoughts. It could not possibly be because of her relationship with Hulu, right? She had never heard of magic affecting the growth of other creatures.

“Alright, I’m heading out. If I get back before my parents finish work, I can still hide my stuff.”

Smacking her lips, the little Demon Lord said her goodbyes to the guys, slung her sizable luggage over her back, and prepared to make a run for it.

“No, Lu Brat. My Lu Brat. I can’t live without you.”

Each grabbing one of Yuki’s arms, Jiaqi and Ziyu were internally roasting how overdramatic he was. Someone was just going home. It was not like she was never coming back.

“I’m off. Bye.”

Her Majesty the Demon Lord flapped her wings and flew off from the balcony. Not using the door was a daily routine by now. Everyone was already used to it.

“My Lu Brat!”

Yuki’s despair filled howl lingered in the boys’ dorm for a long time. Anyone who heard it was deeply moved, all silently sighing in their hearts…

‘Where did this idiot come from? Can he shut up already?’

Heh, heh. Jixian, Jixian. Tsk. tsk.
