Demon King – Chapter 608 – The Sister Saving Operation in Progress

The transformation caused by Abyssal Amber on a Daughter of Amber Crystal is not limited to the physical body alone. It includes the soul and the mind. The process of becoming a Demon Lord unfolds across multiple aspects.

“So basically, I need to strip away all the parts of you that have already begun transforming, that is, the parts that have already turned into demon race components. Only then can I prevent the transformation from spreading further.”

The young silver-haired girl said this while half squatting in front of another girl. A small wooden stick in her hand traced lines across the sandy ground, drawing a strange and complex magic array around them, enclosing the other girl within it.

“Sis, I don’t understand…”

Standing inside the magic array, the girl completely failed to understand what her sister was talking about. She muttered quietly, though she knew her sister was helping her.

Standing obediently in place without moving, the girl tilted her head as she watched her sister busy drawing things in front of her. For a child her age, standing still like this was inevitably a bit boring.

“It’s normal you don’t understand. How old are you? This kind of thing is something only your invincible big brother… pfft, sister! can understand!”

“But you’re only two years older than me…”

“Two years older is still older! Let me tell you, do you know what two years means? That’s enough time to do a whole lot of things!”

As she spoke, the silver-haired girl even raised both hands and gestured animatedly.

After gesturing and rambling for quite a while, the girl finally realized the topic had gone off track. Looking at her younger sister, who was about to start yawning from boredom, she felt a bit embarrassed and squatted down to continue drawing the magic array.

“My abilities are limited right now. That chunk inside you, Amber Crystal, Abyssal Amber? Whatever, call it anything… anyway, I can’t help you take it out for now, but I can help you stop its function.”

“Sis, I don’t understand…”

Like a broken record, she repeated herself. Even though she was used to it, her sister always saying things she couldn’t understand still made her feel a bit frustrated.

Whether it was the sister she had now or the brother she used to have, the girl knew her own head wasn’t as good as the other’s. The other side often talked about how education should start early, then stuffed her full of knowledge.

Because of that, before she had even entered elementary school, she had already been drilled to the level of doing fifth or sixth grade problem sets. People around them all praised her as a prodigy and a genius, but she knew that the little loli who hid her achievements was the truly outrageous one.

“I’ll take out the parts of you that have been eroded and seal them inside my body. On top of that, I’ll use magic to seal the Abyssal Amber fragment inside you. That way, you can grow up healthy without any problems~”

The seed of transformation was planted before birth, so for Daughters of Amber Crystal, there was no such thing as preventing it beforehand. Before they were born, they had already begun transforming. It was just a matter of degree and speed.

What the girl needed to do now was like vacuum isolation. By cutting off contact with the already eroded parts, and with the added sealing by her magic, the Abyssal Amber inside her sister’s body would no longer be able to cause trouble.

There would be no problems before she grew up, but the gap would always exist and would continue to widen as she grew. So when the time was right, she would need to return the part she had taken. Since she would have already grown up as a human by then, even returning that small portion of demon race components would no longer cause any issues.

That was the plan the girl had devised, and she had run through it countless times in her head. Unfortunately, her current self not only lacked magic power, but even her own existence was unstable. Otherwise, she could have tried directly removing a certain potential troublemaker to avoid uncertainty.

“My current self can’t fully handle it, and all this massive information that appeared out of nowhere, plus this body that hasn’t fully fused yet… so I can only wipe these things away and leave them to my future self~”

“Oh, I get it now… sis, you want to slack off and push things to the future.”

“???”

Three question marks practically popped up over the silver-haired girl’s head. How did you not understand what you were supposed to understand, but understand the part you weren’t supposed to?

“This isn’t slacking off! I’m just handing things over to my future self!”

Because the fusion had been far too forceful, this loli body had emerged too early, causing all kinds of incompatibilities, to the point that her own existence was extremely unstable. So the girl planned to seal everything related to this part away for now and wait for a suitable time.

She would turn her memories into chains, forcibly binding this body within that different space and letting it grow on its own. At the same time, she would seal away all related information, to prevent her current young self’s little brain from being overwhelmed.

“Anyway, once this body fully fuses, grows, and stabilizes, I’ll turn back again. For the time being, I’ll just keep being a boy~”

“Sis, I don’t understand…”

“Stop repeating yourself! Stay put quietly, I’m starting the separation!”

“But you said you won’t remember these things, then what about my memories?”

“Yours won’t be left either! Everything will be sealed up! I’ve calculated the timing, it’ll be unsealed when it’s about right.”

As if she had lost patience, without waiting for her sister to ask anything else, the girl had already poured magic into the array on the ground and activated it.

“The closer the blood is to the heart, the more soul it carries…”

Murmuring to herself, the little Demon Lord half lay across the hospital bed, her fingers measuring and marking positions on her sister’s body as she searched for a suitable spot.

Because she had the absurd skill of magical analysis, she didn’t need to study much medical knowledge. Her Majesty the Demon Lord could easily find a location that wouldn’t threaten her sister’s life.

With a flick of her small hand, she formed an exquisite dagger out of magic and gently pressed it against a carefully chosen spot on her sister’s chest, preparing to act.

The plan was simple. As long as she released some of Eiya’s blood and catalyzed it with magic, she should be able to open a channel linking to her. Souls resonate with each other, and in theory, the part of Eiya’s soul inside her own body should naturally follow this channel back.

Taking a deep breath, Eiru gently stabbed the dagger into her sister’s body. And because she loved her sister dearly, she also used magic to suppress Eiya’s nerves, so she wouldn’t feel any pain.

With a slight cut, bright red blood flowed along the dagger, a sight that was honestly quite frightening. If someone were to burst in at this moment, they would definitely think this was a murder scene.

Although the wound looked scary and the amount of blood was alarming, everything was under the little Demon Lord’s control. She was a little nervous, but she knew this level wouldn’t pose any danger. Besides, she had prepared a magical safety net, hadn’t she?

With the preparations complete, she kept the hand holding the dagger steady. Biting off the glove on her other hand, Eiru gently pressed her finger against the wound and slowly injected magic into it.
