Demon King – Chapter 759 – Bad Girl

After the little Demon Lord ran off, the house was left with just this pair of childhood sweethearts staring at each other with wide eyes…

They stayed locked in silent eye contact for quite a while. In the end, Jiaqi was the first to surrender, awkwardly shifting his gaze away.

But staying silent like this wasn’t a solution either. After a brief pause, Eiya tapped her finger against her lips and slowly asked,

“Brother Jiaqi, you and him… are you very close?”

“Who?”

“That chuunibyou Hero you were with today.”

Part of it was fear that Jiaqi would get carried off and she would lose favor. But as his childhood sweetheart, seeing him being close with someone else still made Eiya feel extremely uncomfortable.

“So you really are upset because of him? He helped me out with something, so we’re friends now, that’s all… But why do you suddenly care about this?”

Jiaqi considered his social skills to be pretty solid. At least compared to a certain silver haired couple… though girls were an exception. He had great popularity. Even though he had only been at Seventh High for less than half a year, he had already gained a whole bunch of bros and friends.

He had so many friends, and Eiya had never cared before. So why was she suddenly unhappy when it came to Xixia?

And judging by that tone when she said chuunibyou Hero, Jiaqi didn’t think it was a compliment. Could it be those two had some kind of grudge? Did Eiya really dislike Xixia?

“It’s nothing. I wouldn’t interfere in someone else’s relationships…”

Eiya puffed up her cheeks and gave a soft huff, turning her face away in displeasure.

“If you’re really unhappy, I can just keep my distance and treat him as a normal friend. But you have to tell me, do you two have some kind of conflict? If there’s a misunderstanding, it’s better to solve it early, right?”

Thinking that his little childhood sweetheart was still young and might misunderstand things sometimes, Jiaqi felt he should guide her a bit. As someone skilled in socializing, he believed having one more friend was always better than making an enemy.

“No, there’s no conflict. If there is, it’s between him and sis.”

“Him and Lu Brat?”

“Yeah. That person is always using some Demon Lord and Hero identity as an excuse to harass my sister. Haven’t you heard her talk about it?”

Now that he thought about it, he had. Jiaqi vaguely remembered hearing something like that from Eiru. But for that loli who loved drama, wouldn’t she be even happier to have such entertainment?

“And I think he even wants to pursue my sister. My sister is such an idiot, she still thinks it’s a joke… Although I don’t think he’s much of a threat, so there’s no need to worry.”

‘Shouldn’t that make him enemies with Yuki instead?! Trying to dig up someone else’s wall, this brother is really narrowing his own path!’

Jiaqi looked stunned. With Yuki’s overprotective vinegar king personality, even he occasionally got glared at. If someone seriously tried to steal his girl, Jiaqi could already imagine that guy’s body sinking to the bottom of the Huanglong River in some horror movie scenario.

“Mm… let’s not talk about unhappy things. Do you want something happy instead?”

After venting quite a bit, Eiya’s mood had clearly improved. She even wore the same mischievous smile as her sister.

“Something happy? What good news?”

“No good news, but there is something good~ Didn’t you notice?”

With a naughty smile, leaning against Jiaqi, Eiya slowly traced circles on the back of his hand with her finger, as if hinting at something.

Only then did Jiaqi notice the unnatural blush on his little sweetheart’s face. Then he realized his hand had been gently guided by her all this time, and now it was resting somewhere… not quite appropriate.

“Hey! Eiya, you need to have some restraint! You can’t learn bad things!”

Jiaqi’s face flushed red as he hurriedly pulled his hand away from the inner side of her thigh.

‘This little demon! Who did she learn that from?! Who seduces a guy like that?!’

But honestly, it didn’t take much thinking to know whose fault this was. A certain someone, as a little demon carrying succubus blood, might not have real intentions of seduction, but would always tease people because she found it fun.

And due to instinct, even if she didn’t mean it, the way she teased was very… pure succubus. That description probably fit a certain Demon Lord perfectly.

It was one thing for her to mess with Yuki. But her dear little sister had watched her entire life story… and now she had been led astray too.

“Eiya, this isn’t right! Girls need to be reserved. You can’t just let someone touch you like that! You weren’t like this before.”

“You’re not just anyone~”

Eiya swung her legs clad in over the knee white stockings, wearing a clear I’ll do it again next time expression, with zero sense that she had done anything wrong.

“And when you say that, maybe take your hand off my chest? It feels weird…”

“Ah! Sorry, sorry!”

Only then did Jiaqi realize that in his nervousness, the hand that had been resting above her lower belly had somehow drifted to a place it absolutely should not have been.

“Don’t worry. I wouldn’t do this with other people~ It’s just that no one else has reactions as fun as yours.”

‘Don’t do this just because it’s fun! You’re the one who suffers, not me! I’m the one getting the advantage here!’

Roaring internally, Jiaqi was just thinking about how to continue educating this mischievous loli when she suddenly turned around and directly straddled his lap.

“Eiya?”

“You took advantage of me. Shouldn’t you take responsibility?”

Sitting upright, Eiya looked at the already blushing Jiaqi with a half smiling expression.

“Ah? Ah?! I can take responsibility… but you…”

‘T-This… is this a confession? This subtle atmosphere… Could it be that Eiya actually has a place for me in her heart and wants to keep me this way? Does that mean I can finally pursue her?’

“Hahahaha! Your reaction is seriously so fun!”

Just as Jiaqi was thinking about how to respond to what seemed like a confession, Eiya suddenly burst into laughter, completely throwing him off again.

“Brother Jiaqi, you’re really such a pure little boy! If you’re like this, those bad girls outside will have you wrapped around their fingers. You’d fall for tricks so easily.”

Poking his chest with her finger, Eiya didn’t hide her teasing at all. He was so talented socially, yet the moment it came to girls, he turned into a fool.

He couldn’t even handle a childhood sweetheart he was this familiar with. If he dated someone in the future, wouldn’t he be completely toyed with, with no ability to resist at all?

“Brother Jiaqi, this won’t do. You’re already flustered just from being teased like this. Do you want me to give you some lessons or something? Otherwise, what will you do if you get lured away by some bad girl?”

Seeing the smug look on her face, Jiaqi felt his dignity being challenged. After being provoked like that, some switch inside him suddenly flipped.

“But… aren’t you my bad girl?”

Jiaqi’s tone suddenly turned firm as he reached out and pressed a hand against Eiya’s head.

“Ah?”
