Demon King – Chapter 675 – Crashing the Moment They Arrived

“Huh? I’m not dead?”

Feeling over his own body, Jiaqi had thought he was done for when he saw some unidentified flying object streaking in from the sky toward this place.

Turning around, the impact of a certain loli landing kicked up a massive cloud of dust. When the dust finally settled, the scene in front of him made Jiaqi’s jaw drop.

There was no cool, heroic “superhero landing” like he had imagined. He could not even see that loli anywhere. Following the dispersing dust with his eyes, the only thing that came into view was a human-shaped crater embedded in the wall.

“S-Stupid Qi, help me out, I’m stuck and can’t get out…”

From inside the human-shaped dent, the little Demon Lord’s weak voice drifted out, leaving Jiaqi at a complete loss as to how to react. What kind of nonsense was this little idiot pulling now?

Because she had rushed over in a hurry, Her Majesty the Demon Lord failed to brake in time and ended up forcefully embedding her entire body into the wall. Without collapsing the surrounding wall, she could not free herself for the moment, so she had no choice but to ask her childhood friend outside for help.

“I swear, are you doing this on purpose to be funny?”

Jiaqi complained while reaching out to pull her. After putting in a ridiculous amount of effort, he finally managed to drag his childhood friend out of the wall.

“Miscalculated it, miscalculated it…”

Patting the dust off herself, Eiru stuck out her tongue, then shifted her gaze toward the drainage ditch not far away.

“Oh, Hulu is in there… It looks really badly hurt, half-dead. No matter how much I call it, there’s no response.”

Noticing Eiru’s line of sight, Jiaqi followed it and pointed toward where Hulu was stuck, explaining the current situation.

“It’s jammed at the mouth of the drain. It’s a real pain. That place is narrow, my hand can’t really reach in. I can barely touch it, but I accidentally bumped it earlier and almost knocked it in… so I didn’t dare try again.”

Squatting in front of the drainage ditch, Her Majesty the Demon Lord examined the situation inside. She tried reaching in. For her small hand, there was actually plenty of room to move… but her arm was too short and she could not reach it at all.

“So the reason you couldn’t wake up just now was because of it?”

“Yeah, since it’s my companion beast, we’re one and the same…”

As she answered, the little Demon Lord assessed the situation for a bit longer, then turned around and extended her long, slender tail.

“You’re not planning to use your tail to coil it up, are you… What about that ring on it?”

Jiaqi was not stupid. Her intention was obvious enough. But that ring on her tail, would it not get in the way?

The ring floated around the middle of her tail as if suspended by magnetic levitation. In Jiaqi’s eyes, it looked like something that should be removable.

“How about you take that ring off first? Can you take it off? I’ll hold onto it for you so it doesn’t get in the way.”

It sounded like a perfectly normal suggestion, but the moment Jiaqi said it, the little Demon Lord’s cute face instantly flushed bright red. That unnatural reaction made Jiaqi wonder if he had said something wrong.

“What’s wrong? Don’t tell me it can’t be taken off?”

“Other… other people really can’t take it off… It’s important to me.”

Poking her fingers together, Her Majesty the Demon Lord’s face was full of embarrassment and conflict.

Her ring had a mechanism that prevented others from taking it away. Even without direct contact with her tail, forcibly pulling it off would cause some mysterious force to jam it at the tip of her tail.

“But if it’s me, I can take it off…”

“Then take it off and give it to me. Otherwise if the ring gets stuck in there later… or knocks Hulu down, that would be bad.”

“B-but…”

Eiru puffed out her cheeks, not knowing how to explain the delicate situation of the ring.

But Hulu’s condition could not wait. The little Demon Lord could feel it continuously drawing magic from her to maintain its faint life and attempt to repair its body.

If this dragged on any longer, she would end up going into hibernation again. If both of them went down together, things would be even more troublesome. Thinking this, Her Majesty the Demon Lord brought her tail in front of her and reached out to grasp her Authority Ring.

“Stop dawdling already. Are you even a man… Oh right, you’re a loli. Didn’t you call yourself a macho man? Hurry it up!”

“If the Demon Lord’s Authority Ring is taken by someone else, then they’ll…”

“They’ll what?”

“They’ll become the Demon Lord’s other half… you know, a partner, get it? This can only be taken by the Demon Lord’s partner! Because it symbolizes the Demon Lord… ahhh, I don’t want to say this anymore!”

Like a little girl throwing a tantrum, the little Demon Lord started to panic. Urged on by Jiaqi, she was completely overwhelmed by shame.

“Uh, I remember Yuki took it befo—”

“Don’t say it! I didn’t know about that back then! And besides, isn’t he my boyfri— no, isn’t he my wife now?!”

The puffed-up Demon Lord waved her hands angrily. The ring she had already taken off bounced up and down with her movements, making Jiaqi instinctively worry for that important item in her hand.

“Since it’s that important, I suggest you put it back first—”

Before he could finish his warning, Jiaqi watched with eyes wide open as his dear childhood friend’s hand slipped.

The ring flew straight out of her grasp. Under the shared gaze of both of them, it traced a perfect arc through the air, then began falling downward under the pull of gravity.

Just as the ring was about to hit the ground, at the very last instant, a hand shot out and grabbed it tightly.

“Holy shit, that was close…”

Under Jiaqi’s dumbfounded stare, Yuki, who had arrived just in time, wiped the sweat off his forehead. The moment he got here, he was greeted with that terrifying scene. God knows how he had just sprinted and dove over like he was running a hundred-meter dash to save the situation.

“Phew, it’s fine, Lu Brat, it’s your husband… What’s wrong with you now?!”

Coming back to his senses, Jiaqi let out a breath of relief, then turned his head only to find his childhood friend already slumped on the ground in shock.

But it did not look like she was just scared. Eiru was sitting on the ground in a duck sit, her body trembling slightly, her face flushed an unnatural red, her expression completely blank.

“Give it back to me… give me back the ring…”

The little Demon Lord’s voice trembled. The intense shock had left her mind practically empty.

“Lu Baby, Lu Baby, you really dared to drop this thing? Learn your lesson yet?”

Yuki wore a thoroughly “you deserved it” expression. Compared to the utterly confused Jiaqi beside him, he knew very well why his little girlfriend was reacting like this.

“Do you know you were wrong? Talk, or I’ll pinch it a couple times right now.”

“Don’t! Don’t! This is outside! My legs are already weak! I know I was wrong, okay?! Please don’t pinch it, I’ll be finished if you do!”

‘What… what is even going on? What exactly is that ring? The Demon Lord’s weak point?’

Watching the two of them interact, Jiaqi still had no idea what the hell was happening.

Even though he had no clue what the situation was,

‘Why did it feel like this couple was just openly engaging in some kind of kinky roleplay… It felt straight out of some forbidden little booklet. Or was that just my imagination?’
