Demon King – Chapter 708 – Rejected by Cats

“I am saying this as your sister. You already have a boyfriend… I told you already, you cannot be this close with other guys. How can you still act like it does not matter at all.”

Lecturing her sister at the front door, just thinking about what happened earlier gave Eiya a headache. How can you be this careless?

“I am not. I am really paying attention to it now… Even though Stupid Yuki will not say it out loud, I know he gets jealous very easily.”

“Then what the hell was that just now? And you still have the nerve to say you are paying attention? He was basically looking straight into your face already, and you still thought it was what… a joke between good brothers or something?”

Having seen her sister’s experiences inside her body, Eiya could very easily imagine what kind of thoughts were going through the problem loli’s head beside her.

‘Please, even if it is a joke, you cannot just ignore it like that.’

“Huh? You do not know? Let me tell you…”

The little Demon Lord tilted her head, then leaned over and whispered softly into Eiya’s ear.

“There is something like that?!”

After hearing what her sister said, Eiya widened her eyes, her face full of disbelief.

“And the person involved does not even know themselves? Is that even possible? Sis, how did you even know about this?”

“How should I put it… It is just a feeling. A feeling that he himself does not know either, maybe?”

Her Majesty the Demon Lord turned her head away and scratched her cheek with a finger. Maybe because it was such a subjective guess, she looked a bit embarrassed.

“Whether he knows or not, why do you not just ask him directly or test her a bit? If you feel awkward about it, maybe find a chance and let me do it?”

Eiya still found Eiru’s reaction strange. Since you are not sure, why not just ask clearly? It does not seem like something you cannot ask.

“Don’t ask. You absolutely must not go ask someone about this.”

The little Demon Lord hurriedly stopped her sister’s idea. She had that intuition before. If the other party found out or started to suspect something… it might lead to consequences that could not be undone.

And honestly, she was not just guessing blindly. From the other party’s usual words and actions, Eiru could tell that someone herself was also being kept in the dark. Since she did not know what the other person’s situation really was, it was better not to interfere rashly.

“I was just saying it. You don’t need to get so worked up, right? I don’t even know those new friends of yours anyway.”

‘To be honest… they did not really count as friends either.’

Her Majesty the Demon Lord smiled awkwardly, then suddenly remembered the interaction between Eiya and Xixia earlier and could not help laughing.

“What are you laughing at?”

——

“Huh? So the Demon Lord’s little sister is the stage boss before my target? But I will not hold back.”

“Yeah? I don’t care what kind of hero you are. If you are targeting her, then you have to get past me first.”

“Who would have thought you two would somehow end up on the same channel… Pfft hahaha, looks like Little Ya you have not fully grown out of your chuunibyou phase yet. But that makes sense. You are only in ninth grade after all… Pfft hahaha.”

“And you have the nerve to say I am chuunibyou?”

Eiya’s face instantly turned red all the way to her neck.

“Stop laughing already.”

‘Why did I get infected for no reason? Why did I even cooperate with that guy and strike a pose? Does that not just make me look just as stupid?’

Listening to her own sister’s carefree laughter, Eiya wished she could crawl into a crack in the ground.

“It is fine, it is fine. You are still young. Big brother here doesn’t mind you… you are pretty cute hahaha.”

“Stop laughing already. With a completely unscientific example like you right next to me, how do you even have the face to call me chuunibyou?”

Overcome with shame and anger, Eiya grabbed Eiru’s collar and shook her hard. A genuine Demon Lord was right beside her. How could chuunibyou even be a thing at that point?

“Alright alright, I will stop laughing. I will stop.”

Afraid that if she kept laughing the other would completely lose it, the little Demon Lord restrained herself, took out the keys, and opened the door.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, the two cats inside, who had been curled up together looking completely dispirited, lifted their heads at the same time and suddenly perked up.

They pattered over to the door, spotted the two silver-haired lolis, got excited and rushed over to act cute and clingy, then suddenly froze halfway.

“Hm? What is wrong?”

The little Demon Lord had already opened her arms, ready to catch Gulu flying over. Seeing the two cats suddenly stop, half squatting there, she looked awkward and confused.

“nya?”

Slowly walking over, the two cats first lightly sniffed Eiru’s palm, then backed off a few steps, and suddenly pounced into Eiya’s arms instead.

Still changing her shoes, Eiya was caught completely off guard by the ambush. A giant cat with a body length already reaching one point five meters suddenly pounced onto her small body barely over one point four meters tall, pinning her straight to the ground.

“What are you doing?! Eh?”

Without her sister’s self-protection ability, Eiya thought for a moment that this cat was going to eat her. But after realizing that the two cats were just rubbing against her affectionately, the shock on her face turned into confusion.

Normally these two cats were pretty clingy with her too, but they clearly liked her sister more. It was not like they disliked her, but when both of them were around, they usually could not be bothered with her. Why did they suddenly ignore her sister and pounce over instead today?

Her Majesty the Demon Lord looked at this abnormal scene and also fell into deep thought. As someone who loved small animals, she wanted to be clung to and rubbed by cats every day. Seeing the two cats that were usually very attached to her suddenly reject her, she could not help feeling unhappy and wronged.

Hm? Not just ignoring her, but rejecting her. After observing more carefully, Eiya noticed that the two cats were clearly dodging Eiru, and suddenly realized something.

“Sis, those kittens in the box just now, did you pet them?”

“Huh? Yeah… while you two were posing and facing off, I thought that kitten was pretty cute, so I could not help secretly giving it a few rubs…”

‘Wow, then you really deserved it, scummy loli…’

Eiya rolled her eyes at her sister. No wonder the two cats at home suddenly rejected her. They found out you had other cats outside. Of course the two at home would be upset.

So for the rest of the evening, the little Demon Lord watched as the two cats clung to Eiya the entire time, her face filled with envy, jealousy, and resentment. No matter how she tried to please and coax them, the two cats, still in a huff, kept avoiding her.

“Stupid Yuki… Gulu and Mango are ignoring me…”

Failing to coax the cats, the aggrieved Demon Lord could only go complain to her little boyfriend. But right after she said that, the reply from the other end of the call left her completely speechless.

“Hm? That should not be the case, right? I am not sure about Mango’s temper, but Gulu has always been very gentle. Did you get other cats outside?”

“…”

“Hey? Lu Brat? What is wrong? Talk to me. Why did you suddenly stop talking?”
