Demon King – Chapter 729 – Little Sister Makes the Plan, Big Sister Prepares to Cooperate

Agui’s guess wasn’t entirely wrong. Eiru really hadn’t told her sister anything about him. At least on that point, he had indeed gambled correctly.

Not telling Eiya was true enough, but someone who didn’t know the full story had completely guessed the reason wrong as to why that girl Demon Lord hadn’t brought it up.

He figured Eiru was just careless, plus the whole thing was kind of embarrassing, and since she had already taught him a lesson, there was no need to stay on guard or warn anyone… But in reality, Her Majesty the Demon Lord’s reason for keeping quiet was extremely simple. Eiya had watched the entire thing play out from start to finish. What the hell was there left to explain?

So Eiya had long since recognized this scumbag playboy who spent his days plotting against girls. And through information she got from her sister, she had also learned the shocking truth that this guy was actually Wulong girl’s boyfriend.

No wonder Wulong loli felt neglected during that time. Turns out this bastard had been off chasing other girls… So the moment he came up to strike up a conversation, Eiya had already guessed that he had his sights set on her.

But this time, the situation was different. A truly skilled hunter often appears in the guise of prey. This time, Eiya was the one lurking in the shadows as the hunter.

“Ahh. Yaya is so cute. Come here, let me hug you.”

Inside the milk tea shop, Xueli wrapped her arms around the cutely dressed silver-haired girl in her embrace, rubbing her own face nonstop against that adorable little cheek.

Even Xueli, who gave off a delinquent-girl vibe, was still a girl at the end of the day. Having very little resistance to cute things was honestly pretty normal.

But Agui, who had been left off to the side, was extremely unhappy. Every single time, someone showed up to ruin things, and to this day, he still hadn’t been able to properly advance his plan.

If this kept up, and he couldn’t make this girl fall so hard for him that she would be utterly devoted before her sister noticed, then his plans to take revenge on Eiru and pull both sisters into his arms would all go down the drain.

The group had been together for quite a while now. After Xueli arrived, Xixia no longer needed to play the role of bodyguard against a certain someone and decisively slipped away. Everyone was having a good time hanging out together, except for one person harboring sinister intentions.

“Since everyone came out together, isn’t it a bit inappropriate for you two to leave me hanging?”

Staying silent wasn’t going to help, so Agui put on a joking expression and started trying to find an opening and a breakthrough.

Seeing Xueli show up, he had already given up on directly launching an offensive against Eiya today. First, he needed to build goodwill with both girls and present himself as polite and gentlemanly. Second, he had to dig up information on this Xueli and stop her from interfering any further.

He had tried before to get information about Xueli from Eiya, but every time he was brushed off perfunctorily. Aside from some completely useless details, whenever it came to anything important, Eiya would always wave it away with excuses like we’re just online friends, I don’t really know her real life situation.

As for why she was so guarded, it was because Eiya didn’t want to drag Xueli into this mess at all. Even though the two of them were currently teaming up to stay alert against this scumbag, Xueli didn’t actually know his true nature.

And besides, if Agui found out that Xueli was Yuki’s cousin, who knew what kind of retaliatory move he might pull. Xueli didn’t have a protective charm given by Eiru. If something really happened, it would be very hard to stop it in time.

“Girls interacting with each other. You’re a big guy, don’t butt in. Or what, you want to find a guy to get all touchy like us? That one called Xixia earlier didn’t seem bad… ah, my bad, my bad, I won’t say it.”

As Xueli was talking, she suddenly felt her waist get pinched hard by Eiya. Seeing the slightly unhappy look in the other girl’s eyes, she realized she might have said something wrong.

Agui also noticed Eiya’s reaction. Combined with how close she had seemed with that boy earlier, the two of them independently arrived at a subtle misunderstanding. Could it be that Eiya liked that younger guy?

Completely unlike Xueli, who burst out laughing, Agui immediately put the completely innocent Xixia onto his list of obstacles to be eliminated.

How could his prey be touched by someone else before he got bored of playing with it himself? And he hadn’t even gotten his hands on her yet. Was that pretty boy tired of living?

What looked like a harmonious offline meetup was, in reality, a gathering where all three people had their own schemes. Each of them harbored different thoughts, yet because of the presence of a third party, none dared to act rashly. The scene settled into a strange and delicate balance.

—————

“By the way, we’re just out buying food. Is it really necessary to come this far?”

Holding his girlfriend’s hand as they strolled along, Yuki had the word speechless practically written all over his face.

“Going to the same few places all the time is boring, okay? And if we run into acquaintances or something, wouldn’t it be awkward for us?”

“I mean, sure…”

Yuki looked around at the unfamiliar surroundings.

“But you didn’t have to drag me straight into another province, did you? Even flying back would take two or three hours.”

“I can carry you back. Just like when we came.”

Yes. They had clearly just gone out to buy some snacks, but the little Demon Lord suddenly didn’t know which wire in her head got crossed. She grabbed Yuki and took off on the spot. Not only did they leave Huanghai, they ended up in some completely unknown city in another province.

For the two of them, it was no big deal. Just shopping somewhere else. But for certain people tasked with keeping an eye on this silver-haired girl, the situation was downright mind-blowing.

While the two of them leisurely strolled around here, the other side was already panicking like ants on a hot pan, searching everywhere in a frenzy.

“My dad’s calling. Hold on.”

When his phone suddenly rang, and he saw it was his father, Yuki quietly explained and picked up.

“Ah, Dad… yeah, I’m with Lu Brat. You’re asking where we are? Hold on…”

“Lu Brat, where are we?”

There weren’t any signs around, and judging from the surroundings, it was just a commercial district. Yuki had never been here before, so he naturally had no idea where they actually were.

“Huh? No idea. I just landed wherever. How about you send Uncle a location pin in a bit?”

“That works.”

So a few minutes later, Officer Li looked down at the location his son had sent and fell into deep thought.

“Old Li, did you find them? Where did your son say they are?”

“…”

That little interlude over, Her Majesty the Demon Lord grabbed Yuki’s hand and ran into another large shopping mall. Since she had always lived under the identity of a boy, shopping was honestly not something she had much interest in.

Then why could Eiru drag Yuki around for so long? The answer was obvious once you looked at the places she was visiting.

Electronics malls, arcade centers, game shops, mech model stores… They had clearly gone out to buy food, but in the end, the places they visited had absolutely nothing to do with food at all.

“Oh right, Stupid Yuki, what time is it now?”

While wandering around, the little Demon Lord suddenly asked out of nowhere.

“Four in the afternoon. Why?”

“Huh? Then the timing should be about right. I guess Stupid Qi is probably about to run into Little Ya by now?”

“Uh… you really go for the heart when you kill, don’t you?”
