Demon King – Chapter 744 – Demon Lord Examination

“Forget it, let’s just start like this…”

Her Majesty the Demon Lord’s voice was filled with helplessness. Not having any family able to accompany her really did leave a bad taste in her heart.

“Are you sure? I really don’t recommend…”

“Alright, Uncle Yuze, I’m really not a child. I’ve always been on my own. I’m used to it already.”

Eiru cut him off, making it clear she was not as fragile as they imagined.

She had also called her mother to tentatively ask when she would be returning to Huanghai City. The reply she got was nothing more than ‘busy earning money to support you two children, be understanding, I really can’t come back.’

So the little Demon Lord gave up on explaining the current situation to her. She also informed her father not to rush back in a panic. She did not want to disturb his work.

“Actually, Uncle, you don’t have to look at me like that. I’m still pretty happy. At least I know my dad is willing to drop his work and rush back to be with me. It’s just that I don’t want to cause him that kind of trouble.”

She could have called Eiya over. But as the younger sister’s pillar of support and umbrella of protection, the little Demon Lord truly did not want Eiya to see her looking anxious and uneasy.

Looking at the overly sensible girl in front of him, Doctor Su Yuze felt a pang in his chest and gently rubbed her small head. After so many years as a doctor, although it was not something as exaggerated as performing surgery, situations like this without any family accompanying or watching over her were rare. He could see the grievance and hurt that Eiru was masking with a smile.

On the other side, having already arrived at the airport, Ei Yuan stared irritably at the departure board. Although his daughter had told him to focus on work and not come back, how could he possibly let his child face and endure something like this alone?

Even though he wished he could appear by her side in an instant, the flight schedule poured a bucket of icy water over his head. The fastest flight back to Huanghai City would not depart for at least another two or three hours.

And it was not even a direct flight. Factoring in possible delays, by the time he returned to Huanghai City, it would probably already be afternoon. For families that ate dinner early, it would practically be dinnertime by then.

Unable to manage things on his end, he called his wife to ask about her situation. Hers was even worse. Liu Wan was on a business trip to a small city without an airport. To return to Huanghai City, she would first need to take a train or long distance bus to a city that actually had an airport.

Overwhelmed and flustered, thinking about his daughter all alone right now, looking around anxiously for a familiar face, Ei Yuan felt his heart clench painfully.

But he quickly thought of a solution. If he could not make it back, at the very least he had to find an adult to accompany her. With that in mind, he took out his phone and dialed a certain number.

Half an hour later.

“Excuse us, excuse us! Sorry!”

A small car hurried into a place that looked like a miniature research institute. The two people who got out of the car saw several individuals blocking the entrance to the parking lot, seemingly arguing about something. Polite but pressed for time, they squeezed past them.

“Hello, may I ask where Eiru is right now?”

As soon as they entered, the two immediately asked a staff member at the entrance about the whereabouts of a certain loli.

The staff member did not recognize them. His expression clearly showed reluctance to disclose that kind of information. This was not a place where random outsiders could casually enter. To be honest, he had almost wanted to throw them out.

However, they had mentioned Eiru by name right away. Perhaps they did know that girl. But the value and importance of that little devil went without saying. He did not dare casually reveal any information about her.

In the end, unable to make the decision himself, the staff member chose a compromise. He pointed toward one of the inner workrooms, signaling for them to ask inside and let someone there decide how to handle the matter.

“Hm? Sister in law? Why are you here? And who is this beside you?”

When he heard a knock on the workroom door and opened it to see who was outside, Doctor Su Yuze looked genuinely surprised.

“This is my son, Li Yuki. Xuanhai asked me to come. Where is little Eiru now?”

After receiving her husband’s call, and with no important work scheduled for today, Ning Xin had hurried over as soon as she heard the news. As for Yuki, after learning about it he insisted on coming along. Officer Li also suggested she bring their son, so she brought him with her.

“Oh, it was Li sir who arranged it? Then there’s no problem.”

Doctor Su Yuze let out a breath of relief. He immediately understood their purpose, handed them a pass, and pointed toward another door inside the workroom.

“Eiru is undergoing a comprehensive examination in there. Take this pass. The staff inside will help you prepare and then take you to her.”

After thanking him, Ning Xin took the pass and prepared to go in to find her little demon daughter. Yuki wanted to follow, but Doctor Su Yuze raised a hand to stop him.

“The situation inside is a bit delicate. You’d better not go in for now. Wait here a little. If you’re worried, we’re processing part of her examination data here. I can tell you roughly how things are going.”

Although puzzled, out of trust and respect for the doctor’s profession, Yuki accepted the explanation and stayed behind. After watching his mother pass through that door, he followed Doctor Su Yuze to his desk and stared at the mass of data on the computer screen that he could barely understand at all.

Meanwhile, after completing disinfection and other preparatory procedures with the staff inside, Ning Xin finally made her way to where Eiru was. Through a large pane of glass, she at last saw the little devil loli who had worried her sick.

The little Demon Lord was sitting on a rather large examination platform. At this moment, aside from the pair of over the knee stockings on her legs, there was not a single scrap of fabric covering her body. Her wings, her tail, even her horns. Every part of her was covered with sensors of various shapes and sizes, all connected to tubes and wires.

Although the young women operating the instruments around her kept soothing and comforting her, the helplessness and tension in Eiru’s expression were still plainly visible.

But in a situation like this, not being afraid would have been abnormal. The discomfort all over her body and the atmosphere of being studied like a specimen made Her Majesty the Demon Lord recall a certain nightmare she once had.

“Alright, alright, don’t be scared! Mommy’s here!”

Ning Xin was already heartbroken beyond words. After receiving permission from the staff, she hurried into the workroom where Eiru was and rushed to her side to comfort her.

“Gu wu?”

Hearing the familiar voice, the little Demon Lord turned her head and saw Ning Xin’s face filled with heartache and worry. For some reason, the moment she saw her, she suddenly felt like crying.

“Wuu… Mommy…!!!”
