Demon King – Chapter 715 – Contempt from the Parents

After messing around at school for who knew how long, Her Majesty the Demon Lord returned home and found the place unusually quiet. Only then did she remember that she still had a younger sister staying at someone else’s house.

“Dinner’s already over. Did you drink forget-your-kid milk or something?! You seriously forgot Little Ya was at my place, didn’t you?”

Looking at his childhood friend who had rushed over in a hurry, Jiaqi immediately felt a surge of anger.

‘You as a brother, no wait, you as a sister, how are you even doing this job? You really just left your little sister at another guy’s house without a care?’

But when he saw Eiya sitting on Jiaqi’s lap, yawning, the little Demon Lord was a bit confused. Thinking it over, aren’t you two getting along just fine? What’s wrong with me leaving her here with you?

When they were kids, aside from times she got bullied, Eiya had always liked treating the two of them as human chairs and sitting directly on their laps. So to Eiru, this kind of closeness wasn’t a big deal. If it weren’t for the fact that her current body was too small, Eiya would probably have gone and sat on her lap instead.

“She’s your sister. You’re really that at ease?”

“But she’s your sister too. What is there for me to worry about?”

The little Demon Lord tilted her head, her eyes innocent and full of confusion, and Jiaqi suddenly felt a sense of guilt in his heart.

Because she trusted her childhood friend and believed that Jiaqi really did see Eiya as his own sister, Eiru wasn’t worried at all that he might have any thoughts or do anything to her.

The two lolis might think that way, but Jiaqi himself didn’t. He felt that he really might have some thoughts toward the loli in his arms now. Looking again at the innocent expressions of the two sisters, he felt like he had betrayed the trust they placed in him.

“Alright, alright, hurry up and get down and go home with your sister. A girl shouldn’t be sitting on a guy’s lap all the time. It’s not a good look.”

He softly scolded her and told the loli in his arms to get off his lap. Jiaqi’s eyes dodged away, but the very next second, he was choked up by what Eiya said.

“Huh? Weren’t you hugging me pretty tightly just now? And now you’re chasing me off?”

“T-That-That was because I was afraid you’d accidentally fall! You stupid loli, I wish you’d hurry up and get down. My leg’s going numb from you sitting on it!”

“You think I’m heavy?! You actually think I’m heavy?!”

Hearing that, Eiya immediately refused to accept it. Like she was protesting, she deliberately sank her body downward and heavily pressed on the thigh behind her a few times.

“Yes! You’re really heavy!”

“You?!”

As a girl who practiced dance, Eiya was extremely sensitive about her weight. And she was clearly the kind of petite type that an adult could lift with one hand. You say she’s heavy? She’d blow up on the spot.

“I’m not heavy! Where am I heavy?! Tell the truth. Are you deliberately insulting me?”

As she spoke, she kept pressing down on Jiaqi’s thigh, as if she’d locked horns with him and was determined to prove the reality that she hadn’t gained weight.

“Stop pressing! My leg’s going to break!”

“Break my ass! Am I heavy or not? Tell me the truth!”

The two in front were having a strange interaction, while Her Majesty the Demon Lord sat calmly on Jiaqi’s desk playing with her phone, as if nothing at all was happening in front of her.

“You two have such a good relationship…”

After a long while, she made that comment, only to get a perfectly synchronized response from both of them.

““What’s good about it? I don’t want to be close with him (her)!””

—————

“Uncle, Auntie, I’ll take Little Ya back first then. Sorry for troubling you today.”

Holding her sister’s hand at the door, the two girls bowed slightly to Jiaqi’s parents to express their thanks. Their polite behavior really did win over the couple.

As if it would ever be troublesome. You’re the one who drank forget-your-kid milk… Jiaqi silently complained in his heart while standing at the door with his parents, seeing the two sisters off.

“If you’ve got nothing going on, come over and sit more often. There are no adults at your place, so you must pay attention to safety. If you need any help, just tell Uncle and Auntie. If you need to stay the night here, that’s no problem either. We can just have our Aqi go back and stay at school.”

‘What the hell, am I even your biological son…’

Listening to his parents’ words full of kindness, Jiaqi almost collapsed on the spot.

He knew his parents wouldn’t really kick him out, but saying this right in front of him, didn’t they care about his dignity at all? And what’s more, there was also a girl there that he might possibly like.

“Dad, Mom, maybe it’s better if they come over less? They’re girls after all. Running to a boy’s house every day doesn’t look good. Especially Little Ya, you should talk to her more and tell her to pay attention to a girl’s image…”

“Hm? Is there any problem with that? You wouldn’t do anything to the two of them anyway… right?”

‘Damn, why do I feel like you’re looking down on me…’

For some reason, as those words came out, Jiaqi saw a hint of contempt in his father’s eyes.

“Yeah, the three of you have been playing together since you were little. Your dad and I aren’t stupid. If we didn’t understand you, how could we let Little Ya stay alone in your room with you?”

‘You really are looking down on me, aren’t you? Mom, you’re adding another stab! Believe it or not, I’ll really just do something to her right now…’

Jiaqi shot a fierce look at Eiya, but seeing his childhood sweetheart cupping her small hands and breathing warm air into them, looking adorable, his gaze softened again.

‘Why didn’t I think she was this cute before? Was I blind? Or is this what people mean by girls changing as they grow up… oh right, she’s not even eighteen yet.’

““Then we’re heading off. Sorry for bothering you today.””

The two sisters said goodbye in unison, then turned to leave.

Jiaqi’s father watched the sisters’ backs as they walked away, thought for a moment, then shifted his gaze to the silly kid beside him.

“What now?”

Noticing his father sizing him up, based on instinct and past experience, Jiaqi had a vague feeling that the man was plotting something.

“Let me be clear first. I don’t want to go out today. If you’re going to say I should escort—”

“It’s not safe for two girls on the road. Son, go see them off.”

Cutting off his son mid-sentence, Jiaqi’s father slapped him on the back and shoved him forward a few steps.

“Hey, again? I already said—”

Staggering a few steps before steadying himself, Jiaqi turned around, ready to protest, only to find that the two had already gone back inside.

“Fuck! Again?!”

Facing only the tightly shut door, understanding what had happened, Jiaqi let out another roar of powerless rage.

“You got kicked out again? You’re really miserable…”

Seeing Jiaqi quickly catch up from behind, the little Demon Lord didn’t know whether she should sympathize with him or tease him.

“Sometimes I really wonder if I’m even their biological son… Why do they dote on you two so much? It’s like you two are their daughters instead.”

Sulking, Jiaqi declared that his fragile young heart had suffered a severe blow.

“Then I’ll turn you into a girl? You can be their daughter too.”

“Please spare me on that one alone!”
