Demon King – Chapter 620 – The Demon Lord’s Body Is Her Own Mess

As soon as school let out, Yuki rushed nonstop to the hotel where Eiru was staying. The moment he walked in, he noticed something was off.

His old man was actually here, and the atmosphere in the room was kind of strange. A certain silver-haired girl was sitting on a chair with a guilty look on her face, clearly looking like she had just been scolded.

“What happened, dad? What did Lu Brat go and do again?”

Thinking about how Eiru was already at the point where she needed a crutch just to walk, even if she was lively, her physical condition should not really allow her to mess around much, right?

Officer Li opened his mouth, just about to tell his son about the naughty girl’s glorious deeds of the day, when he noticed Eiru looking at him pitifully, her eyes full of pleading.

Before Officer Li could react, Yuki had already reached out and covered the little Demon Lord’s eyes with one hand. Even an idiot could tell something was wrong. There was no way Yuki was going to give a certain girl the chance to pull a pity act.

“Stupid Yuki! Stupid Yuki don’t listen! Kids aren’t allowed to hear this!”

She tried to pounce up and cover Yuki’s ears, but forgot what kind of physical state she was in right now.

“Who’s the kid here, don’t you have any self-awareness? You’re already sixteen, can you behave a bit?”

Luckily Yuki reacted fast and pressed her back down. Otherwise, if she made any intense movements, she would be wailing in pain again.

Ten minutes later, Officer Li went back to continue working. Even though his currently assigned main task was indeed to look after that silver-haired girl, if there was no problem here, there were still other duties at the police station that could not be neglected. He was not going to stay here the whole time.

To be honest, he had hinted that Eiru could just go back and live with their family. The clever Demon Lord had heard the hint, but also very tactfully expressed that she was not suitable to go back with them right now.

Yuki understood this point the best. Even though she was always saying things like begging to be kept and wanting to slack off without working hard… the little Demon Lord actually disliked living off others.

And now that she had faced her own feelings and realized she had fallen for Yuki, she was even more unwilling to become a burden to him. She wanted to work hard to be a useful person, someone who could help and support Yuki, someone worthy of him.

Officer Li did not really understand Eiru’s inner thoughts, but since she was not willing to agree, he could not force anything. And considering that there were still some troublesome issues at home, this matter could only be postponed for now.

Setting aside Yuki’s troublesome grandparents who occasionally came to stir things up, Yuki’s mother was also quite a troublesome issue. With his own childhood experiences, Officer Li knew that under normal circumstances, his wife would definitely care deeply for Eiru just like he did.

But the problem was that their son was dating this silver-haired girl. That could very well step right on her landmines. No matter how much she liked Eiru due to past regrets, Yuki was still their real child.

Either they hid the fact that the two of them were dating, but if they did that, a certain someone would definitely find a way to go through the procedures and directly adopt Eiru into the family. By then, Eiru and Yuki would become siblings, and Yuki would probably explode on the spot.

But if they did not hide it, no one could judge what kind of attitude that certain person would have after learning that her son was dating early. So Officer Li chose to wait and observe for now. Besides, at this stage, Eiru’s situation was still fairly stable.

After Officer Li left, Yuki, now fully aware of the girl’s glorious deeds, kept a straight face and said nothing, just staring seriously at her face, very much in his dad’s style.

“Ugh… don’t not say anything. I was wrong, okay.”

Feeling guilty, the little Demon Lord wanted to hold her head with both hands and beg for mercy, but since only one hand could move, her current one-handed head-holding posture looked especially ridiculous.

“Was the supermarket shopping cart fun?”

“Huh? It was… it was okay, I guess? It’s not like I have anything else to play with…”

Yuki suddenly throwing out that line caught Eiru off guard, and she answered stupidly without thinking. Only halfway through did she realize something was wrong. She looked up and found that Yuki’s expression had already shifted from serious to a dangerous half-smile.

“I was wrong!”

“Right. Brave enough to admit your mistake, but absolutely refusing to change… anyway, whenever something happens, regardless of anything else, regardless of whether you even know what you did wrong, you just apologize first, right?”

It was obvious that Yuki was really angry. His serious, slightly cold words made Her Majesty the Demon Lord feel scared. Having just been abandoned by her family, she was not so fragile as to be glass-hearted, but she was definitely quite sensitive.

“Y-You… don’t be mad, okay… I-I’m a bit scared.”

“Scared of what?”

“Scared… scared you won’t…”

Halfway through her answer, remembering Yuki’s promise to her, the little Demon Lord swallowed the inappropriate words back down.

“Then be obedient, okay? Rest properly and heal… you’re not that little anymore, right? Even if becoming like this makes you a bit more childlike in temperament and personality, you still know you’re not really a child, don’t you?”

“Mm… I’ll pay attention…”

She bit her lip. Her mood was a bit low, but knowing she was in the wrong, Eiru did not really feel wronged.

But honestly speaking, the little Demon Lord still felt a bit resentful toward that big chunk of crystal. Why did you have to give me a girl body? And even let it affect my mentality along with it.

All the previous Demon Lords were all curvy, mature big sisters. Even if we do not talk about anything else, at least they looked imposing and majestic… so why did it have to be an exception when it came to me?

If Abyssal Amber had its own consciousness, hearing Eiru’s complaints, it would definitely cry injustice. Because this mess really was not its fault.

Turning other beings into a Demon Lord was the same. They all started from an immature form. After all, every being grows up from youth. From the perspective of adaptability and growth, it could only give you a youthful body.

Abyssal Amber did not lock the body’s growth ability either. In fact, how the body grows would only follow the Demon Lord’s own thoughts. It was completely the other party’s own matter.

So the reason the little Demon Lord had a girl body was entirely due to her own subconscious choice. Deep down in her heart, perhaps she actually hoped to become this way.

But no one could know the details of such things. Maybe there were deeper reasons behind it all. The only one who could know the answer was Eiru herself. Since even the person involved did not realize it right now, there was no way anyone else could know.

“Stupid Yuki, are you still going back to the dorm tonight?”

Her Majesty the Demon Lord tugged at Yuki’s clothes as she asked. Even if she would not admit it out loud, she really needed his company.

“Didn’t I stay with you yesterday? You know the dorm supervisors do room checks. It was fine before when you were there, but now I can’t stay out overnight every day…”

No matter how strong Jixian and Ziyu’s cover skills were, and no matter how well they coordinated, without a certain girl’s magic now, the difficulty of fooling the dorm supervisors had risen sharply.

So even if Yuki wanted to stay here with his little girlfriend every day, school rules would not allow it. Being able to stay over once every two or three days was already pretty good.
