Demon King – Chapter 593 – Conflicting Information
In the end, what Ei Yuan told her was still just the story of the Daughters of Amber Crystal. Eiru listened carefully, but she really wanted to complain inside.
‘To be fair, I probably understand the Daughters of Amber Crystal better than you do.’
Out of politeness and respect for the serious atmosphere, Her Majesty the Demon Lord naturally kept those words to herself.
Besides, the information she had previously gotten from Jiaqi and Grandma was far too limited. Now that her dad was finally willing to talk, she might be able to get something more useful.
From her father’s account, the little Demon Lord learned that her sister was the most power-abundant Daughter of Amber Crystal in recorded history. Normally, Daughters of Amber Crystal only began showing signs after the age of five, or even seven or eight. But Eiya had already shown early signs before she was five.
Because Eiya didn’t have blue eyes at birth, the family didn’t think too much of it at the time and treated her as a normal child. But as Eiya grew a little older, they began to realize something was wrong.
“Your sister was like she had superpowers. Strange things would always happen around her. At first, we thought it was just our imagination, until you were a little over two years old.”
Eiru and Eiya were too young back then to remember anything, and Eiya herself had no idea how to control her power. She would often unintentionally hurt Eiru. It wasn’t until Eiru once fell out of a bed that had guard rails that Ei Yuan and Liu Wan finally realized something was seriously wrong.
They didn’t know it then, and neither did Eiru or Eiya, but the bodies of the Daughters of Amber Crystal housed magic power. For ordinary humans, contact with magic without proper control could easily cause erosion and damage to the body.

At that time, Eiru was not only an ordinary human, she was still just a toddler who had barely learned to babble a few simple words. Being constantly affected or even directly injured by Eiya’s frequently rampaging magic had already planted the seeds of hidden danger long ago.
Even though they didn’t understand these details, once Ei Yuan and Liu Wan confirmed Eiya’s identity as a Daughter of Amber Crystal, they no longer dared leave the two children alone together.
On top of Eiya’s particularly troublesome situation, after much discussion, they ultimately decided to leave Eiru in their hometown to be raised by her grandparents, while Eiya was taken to a big city to look for ways to solve the problem.
“So when we were little, Little Ya often hung me up and beat me? And you two spent forever before realizing it?”
Hearing this outrageously bizarre story, Eiru’s expression turned ugly.
“What do you mean ‘hung you up and beat you’? Your sister just didn’t know her own strength when playing with you. At that age, how could you two even be capable of fighting?”
Ei Yuan couldn’t help feeling both amused and exasperated at his son’s strange wording.
“After that, we brought Little Ya to Huanghai, far away from Crystal Amber City. Everything went smoothly at first, and her condition stabilized. She completely became an ordinary child. But…”
“But what? Her abilities went berserk again and she went wild?”

Her Majesty the Demon Lord was confused. She had thoroughly checked Eiya from both the human and demon perspectives.
It might be because of the Daughter of Amber Crystal trait, but Eiya only had the ability to store magic power. That was it. Eiru was absolutely certain that her sister couldn’t generate magic on her own, nor did she have any means to control or use it. Aside from being compatible with magic, she was a completely normal human.
“Not really. After growing up, your sister hasn’t shown any special traits at all…”
“Then that settles it. What are you still worried about? Recently she’s just been sleepy, right? And she even went out to play with Mom. She should be doing better by now, shouldn’t she?”
As she said this, Eiru paid close attention to her father’s reaction. Although he tried hard to conceal and control himself, the slight furrow of his brows was still caught by her.
“What exactly is wrong with Little Ya? Dad, what are you hiding from me?”
Only an idiot would believe that Eiya went out to play without bringing her phone. Having probed out an abnormal reaction, the little Demon Lord immediately pressed her father.
“She’s not in very good health, so we want you to take better care of her…”
Ei Yuan replied vaguely. Agitated, he swallowed the latter half of what he almost said.

Maybe there won’t be a chance to take care of her anymore.
‘Damn it, something is definitely wrong. These two screwups.’
Cursing loudly in her heart, the little Demon Lord was well aware that if something really happened to Eiya, she would be the only one in this world who could save her.
‘But these two screwups don’t know that, and they’re even holding me back. You keep hiding it from me. How am I supposed to confirm the situation? I don’t even know where she is right now. Don’t tell me she’s in the hospital. What the hell is wrong with you people?’
After finishing the story of the siblings’ childhood, Ei Yuan gave Eiru a few more brief instructions, then left the room, leaving her all the time and space she needed to digest the information.
Giving her time and space was one thing. Ei Yuan himself also needed to think carefully about whether he should tell Eiru that Eiya might be critically ill.
The reason it was only said to be possibly critical was because although the doctors had declared Eiya to be in danger, her own condition was extremely strange.
Aside from being lethargic, she had no discomfort at all. Yet all her physical indicators were steadily declining. Even when she woke up, she was full of energy, completely unlike a patient.
At first, the doctors determined that Eiya was experiencing organ failure, but in the end they found that everything in her body was actually normal. Normal, yet all her organs seemed to be on strike, gradually lowering their working frequency. This created a situation where everything appeared normal, but the data indicators were abnormal.

After her father left, the little Demon Lord also needed time to sort through the information in her head. Of course, not what he had just told her. Most of that she already knew. What she was processing were the scattered pieces of information that had just unlocked in her mind.
“Tsk… what kind of mess is this again?”
After organizing it, Eiru realized that the new information was directly related to her sister. The reason why the Daughters of Amber Crystal had such short lifespans.
“Incomplete conversion, leading to two-way rejection? But Little Ya isn’t like the other Daughters of Amber Crystal. She never even got the chance to convert.”
Although she wasn’t sure what Daughters of Amber Crystal would eventually become, Eiru had once sensed those girls in that laboratory. Compared to humans, their bodies contained far more components of other beings. Or rather, they had been converted into components of some other kind of lifeform.
Eiya was extremely lucky. Somehow, by some unknown method, her connection to the Amber Crystal had been severed before the conversion process even began. So the current Eiya was just an ordinary little girl with no special abilities at all.
“There’s something seriously wrong with this information. What it’s implying is… Little Ya shouldn’t be able to have any problems. Who the hell caused all this nonsense? This is such a pain.”
