Demon King – Chapter 564 – The Demon Lord Who Excels at Hiding

They wandered around for quite a while, yet Lin Miao and Eiya simply could not find that silver-haired girl who had slipped away on her own. By all logic, with how eye-catching that head of silver hair was, she should not have been this hard to spot.

“I think the two of us just aren’t going to find big sis…”

Eiya was the first to give up on the idea of searching, because she suddenly remembered things from when they were kids playing together.

“If she doesn’t want us to find her, there’s no way we can. Bro, do you remember when we played hide-and-seek as kids, did big sis ever lose?”

“Seems like… she really didn’t?”

With that reminder, Lin Miao also recalled it. Whether she was the seeker or the one hiding, Eiru really did seem like she had never lost.

No matter if it was him, Eiya, Jiaqi, or even Yuki back when he was a kid and occasionally joined in. Even when all of them mobilized together just to look for Eiru alone, unless she chose to jump out herself, they still could not find even a trace of her.

“So let’s head back. From how this looks, big sis is deliberately avoiding us…”

Since she did not know that Yuki had come as well, Eiya assumed her beloved sister was simply avoiding their family for the time being.

With that line of reasoning, Lin Miao was successfully convinced too. He temporarily gave up on looking for the girl, planning to take Eiya to buy some food first, then head back to the villa to check things out.

“Lu Brat, you really planning to hide like this?”

On a stone bench not far away meant for visitors to rest, Yuki, who was sitting there, asked the girl whose chin was resting on his head when he saw the two of them leave.

“What else can I do? I don’t want you to get beaten to death by my big brother…”

After spotting the two people looking for her, the little Demon Lord immediately found an opportunity. Without drawing the attention of the surrounding visitors, she used magic to hide both of their figures. Eiya’s guess was not wrong. She really did not want to meet those two right now.

“My brother is a hardcore little-brother and little-sister fanatic. If he finds out I’m dating you… getting nagged would be the least of it. I’m more afraid he’d tell my parents.”

From Lin Miao’s attitude yesterday, it was obvious he definitely did not agree with her dating Yuki. And honestly speaking, back when she used to be a boy, letting them know she was dating another boy would have felt really awkward.

“By the way, stupid Yuki, where are you staying tonight? You’re not going back home, right? This place is pretty far from Huanghai.”

Shifting the topic a bit, Her Majesty the Demon Lord suddenly started caring about where he would be staying.

“Hm? I booked a place. Knowing you’re here, of course I’d find a chance to spend more time with you. Once you go back home, there won’t be many chances.”

Yuki smiled.

“Want to stay with me tonight?”

“Sure, sure! Where are you staying?”

‘Tch, you really just offered yourself up like that?’

Yuki complained inwardly. He had only been joking. He never planned for Eiru to agree. After all, they were out traveling. There was no way she would get permission to stay out overnight.

Even though Yuki was extremely dissatisfied with his little girlfriend’s parents, he still did not want Eiru to actually clash with her family or completely fall out with them. Because this girl still could not fully separate herself from the various forms of support provided by her family.

Of course, Yuki was completely willing and more than capable of taking care of her and even supporting her financially. But this Demon Lord who was stubborn to an abnormal degree in certain aspects refused to accept this kind of one-sided giving. So even if Yuki wanted to support her, she would not agree.

And if things really did blow up, it would also be a huge psychological blow to this girl. With things currently in a relatively stable state, Yuki truly did not dare to let her suffer any刺激. This was not something you could gamble on.

“Don’t rush into agreeing. Think it through properly. After you go back, can you still sneak out? Stupid girl.”

Patting his little girlfriend on the head, Yuki’s tone was filled with helplessness.

“Who says I can’t? I can climb out the window, go invisible. There are always more solutions than problems. Anyway, there are tons of ways to sneak out! And now that no one’s holding me, I can’t even sleep. This is all your fault. You have to take responsibility!”

Wrapping her arms around Yuki’s neck, even though the words sounded like complaints, the little Demon Lord’s tone was clearly coquettish.

“Alright, alright, I’ll take responsibility, I’ll take responsibility. I’m just worried your parents might realize you’re missing and then all sorts of things happen.”

“Then how about you come sleep at my place tonight?”

Hearing that, Yuki shot her a subtle look reserved for caring about an idiot girl. At this moment, he really wanted to pry this girl’s head open and see what was inside.

‘How did you even come up with an idea like that?’

Waking up in the middle of the night and finding an extra person in the house, then calling the police on the spot. Just imagining that scene made Yuki feel like he would end up staring his own dad in the eyes at the station.

“But… I really want to sleep with you. You’re super warm, and being held by you feels especially comfy. Haven’t you noticed I’ve always liked being held by you? You think I’m just giving it away, but actually I just want a human heater!”

But in the end, that was still giving it away… Yuki muttered inwardly. Still, since the one she was giving it away to was him, he was pretty happy about it. As long as she did not do it with anyone else. You can only give it away to me.

“As for me, I’m staying in a smaller villa in the same park as yours. I don’t know exactly which one you’re in, so I’ll send you my room number. If anything comes up, you can come find me.”

As he spoke, Yuki took out his phone and sent her his room number.

“So next, are you planning to keep strolling around before eating, or just go eat directly?”

“Let’s stroll a bit more. It’s my first time at a zoo.”

Swinging her little legs, Her Majesty the Demon Lord suddenly pointed in a certain direction.

“Stupid Yuki, help me buy an ice cream. I’m tired from walking and my legs are a bit sore.”

“Alright, alright. Stay here and behave, don’t wander off. I’ll go buy it for you.”

Unable to do anything about her, Yuki stood up and walked toward where she was pointing, going to look for an ice cream stand.

“Mm hm hm, today is great.”

Humming a little tune in high spirits, with not many visitors around, the little Demon Lord simply let her tail extend out and secretly played with it.

Fiddling with her tail to pass the time, in a state where both her mind and body were completely relaxed, Her Majesty the Demon Lord did not notice it. Not far behind her, a small patch of bushes rustled softly as some strange figure hid within, slowly approaching her.

“I really want to pet that big kitty again. By the way, did that tiger leave already? It’s almost closing time… did all the interactive programs wrap up?”

While reminiscing about the fluffy feel of that tiger earlier, Eiru tilted her head and muttered to herself. Seizing the moment when she was completely off guard, the figure sneaking up behind her immediately launched its attack.

“Eek? Wah?! What?! What is that thing?!!!!”
