Demon King – Chapter 585 – Is Your Girlfriend a Delinquent?

“I’m telling you, yeah. At Seventh High, as long as you say my name, no one will dare bully you. If you run into trouble, go find Brother Lu. You’re Stupid Yuki’s little sister. I’ll definitely have your back.”

Patting her own meager chest, Her Majesty the Demon Lord struck a pose that screamed you’re under my protection now. Not only did Xueli look utterly awkward, even Yuki beside her covered his face, unable to watch.

‘Please, Lu Brat, stop embarrassing yourself. We’re just here to show someone around the school, okay…’

While Yuki was complaining internally, the phone in a certain loli’s pocket suddenly rang.

“Wait. I need to take a call. You guys keep looking around. I’ll come find you later.”

Seeing the caller ID, Her Majesty the Demon Lord’s expression changed instantly. She threw out that line and ran off.

“Bro, your girlfriend… does she have some kind of serious illness?”

Xueli asked suspiciously, turning to Yuki.

“I really don’t want to say this, but she’s actually not wrong. In this school, she really does walk sideways. If you say her name, no one will mess with you.”

“Uh… but she just ran off, you know? Aren’t you going to chase after her? She looked super suspicious. Aren’t you afraid she’s calling some other guy?”

Watching the loli’s retreating back, Xueli suddenly felt like teasing her brother to see how he’d react.

“That’s impossible. Judging by how she looked, it’s probably a call from home.”

There was no way Yuki would fall for such a low-level trick. Besides, he knew exactly why Eiru ran off. A super cute one-meter-four loli suddenly letting out a deep teenage boy’s voice right in front of you would scare you half to death, okay?

“But since you’re saying that, I’m starting to feel like your girlfriend… she’s not actually a delinquent, is she? Like a little punk girl?”

Putting together what just happened along with Eiru’s slightly hip-hop-style outfit. While a super cute loli being one sounded unlikely, the sense of familiarity was definitely there.

“In a way, I guess she kind of is?”

Yuki scratched his head and answered helplessly.

Fighting, skipping classes, she had it all. In most people’s eyes, that pretty much made her a delinquent. Taking down all the nearby thug gangs by herself, acting brash and carefree, even more punk than actual punk girls. As for the clothes, Yuki was too embarrassed to say who bought them. Just over the clothes alone, his dad had talked to him plenty of times.

“Tsk. Bro, I heard you’re in the Honor Class, the school’s golden signboard and darling. How did you end up dating a delinquent girl?”

Xueli sucked in a sharp breath.

“I heard those delinquent girls play really wild. Are you sure you’re okay with that?”

Xueli wasn’t some problem girl, but she wasn’t exactly a good girl either. And with her deep research into gossip, campus novels, and TV dramas, she knew pretty well what those so-called delinquents usually got up to.

She clearly looked so small and pitiful. You really couldn’t tell at all. Her brother’s conditions were pretty good too. Don’t tell me he really got ruined by this kind of bad girl.

“Playing wild… that part does fit her pretty well. She used to be a veteran driver. Her head was full of all kinds of messed-up stuff. She had more than a bunch of guys.”

Thinking about how that loli drove every day at lightning speed. Even if she was just a mouthy type, the stuff she played around with in her head really was wild. The goods she dragged him into were more intense book by book.

‘Holy crap. So bro’s into this kind of thing? Didn’t expect that. I thought you’d like the quiet, gentle school belle type. In novels, Yuki would totally be the standard campus heartthrob male lead.’

“But wait, bro. Are we even in the same chat channel?”

After being shocked for a moment, Xueli suddenly realized something. A girl’s intuition told her they might be talking past each other.

“How would I know? You never said which channel you were in.”

“Ahhh, I’m back. You two didn’t leave? I could’ve chased after you, you know.”

Before they could sync their channels, the little Demon Lord who had finished her call popped out from who knows where and immediately hooked her arm around Yuki’s.

“A call from home?”

“Yeah. My mom. Nothing big.”

Eiru didn’t feel much about it. Ei Yuan and Liu Wan would occasionally ask about how she was doing. Maybe because they knew she didn’t like phone calls, they usually sent messages instead. Getting a call today did catch her a bit off guard.

“She just asked how my health was, told me to study seriously, go out less, make normal friends, don’t date or anything. Same old stuff. I’m sick of hearing it.”

‘Don’t date?’

Xueli sharply caught the keyword. Her gossip radar instantly perked up, and she started secretly listening in on their conversation.

‘Come to think of it, why does her brother call her Lu Brat, such a masculine nickname? And the way these two interact doesn’t have that awkwardness couples usually have. They’re supposedly a couple, but something feels off.’

“Bro, why does she call herself Brother Lu? And what’s with the don’t date thing?”

Taking advantage of a pause in their conversation, Xueli quietly leaned over to Yuki and asked.

“Because she was raised as a boy by her family when she was little, and she mostly hung out with boys. Even now, most of the time she still treats herself as a boy.”

And stuff like a grown boy turning into a loli was impossible to explain, so Yuki simply went with the excuse that she’d always dressed like a tomboy and interacted with people that way.

“Is her family sick or something? Such a cute loli, and they raised her as a boy? Such a good seed, completely led astray.”

“You’re not wrong. Her family really does have some serious issues. Including her younger sister, not a single one of them is normal. All top-tier weirdos.”

After making sure his little girlfriend hadn’t noticed their sibling conversation, Yuki quietly complained to Xueli about her family.

“She has a younger sister too? Don’t tell me she’s a tomboy as well? So desperate for a son that they raised both daughters as sons?”

“No. Her sister’s a normal girl. Only Lu Brat was raised as a son.”

Yuki’s explanation completely broke Xueli’s brain.

Even TV dramas don’t do this. What kind of logic is this? Two daughters, one raised as a son, one as a daughter? And the older one is the son? What the hell is going on with this loli’s family? Are they really okay?

“In short, Lu Brat has a whole pile of problems. She herself accounts for two-tenths, her family eight-tenths. I’ve got a headache over how to teach her to be a normal girl.”

“How about I do it?”

“Get lost. I’d let anyone else do it before I let you.”

Yuki shot down his little sister’s suggestion on the spot. Let you do it? You either binge dramas and gossip or go berserk and tear the house apart. Let her stay with you for two days and she’d turn into a full-on problem child.

“That’s too heartless. I’m serious. That’s my future sister-in-law. Do you really think I’d lead her astray? Am I that kind of person?”

Yuki patted Xueli on the shoulder and shook his head helplessly.

‘Bro doesn’t doubt your intentions. I just don’t trust your damn capabilities.’
