Demon King – Chapter 767 – There Is Always Someone Who Ruins Things

It is widely known that parents are a magical species who almost never knock before entering a room. Of course, not all of them are like that.

But this is already considered mild. Some extreme ones don’t even allow their kids to close their bedroom doors. In their eyes, the moment you shut your door and hide inside your room, it must mean you’ve got something to hide.

Of course, most parents still allow their kids to close the door. But once you actually close it, you’ll notice a very strange phenomenon.

Normally, when you’re not in your room, your parents basically have zero interest in it. Forget going inside, they probably can’t even be bothered to glance at it.

But the instant you enter your room and shut the door, they suddenly have a ton of things to do. Using excuses like looking for something, grabbing something, delivering something, cleaning up, they’ll come in every so often.

Knocking is basically impossible. Even if you’re not doing anything shameful, the sudden sound of the doorknob turning is enough to make plenty of people’s hearts skip a beat. Honestly it’s straight up PTSD.

Locking the door doesn’t really help either. All it does is add one extra step for the person outside to unlock it with a key. They barge in with all sorts of reasons, make you nervous as hell, then leave like nothing happened. And they don’t even close the door.

“You’re already lying in bed so sleep earlier. Want me to turn off the light for you?”

Seeing the blanket over her son bulging unnaturally, Ning Xin frowned, but didn’t think too much about it.

After all, a certain Demon Lord had a very petite figure, and Yuki had stuffed a pillow over Eiru’s head as camouflage. So it was perfectly normal that Ning Xin didn’t notice anything at first glance.

“No need. I’ll play on my phone for a bit… so Mom what did you come in for?”

Yuki’s heart was already lodged in his throat. If he got caught this time, with his dad at home, he’d probably get dragged off on the spot.

And the silly loli in his arms seemed to have her bad thoughts bubbling up again. In a situation this dangerous, she was actually tracing circles on his stomach through his shirt, blatantly provoking his taut nerves.

“The clothes you changed out of after your shower yesterday are dry. I brought them in for you.”

As she spoke, Ning Xin stuffed the folded clothes in her hands straight into Yuki’s wardrobe.

“And pillows are for supporting your head, not hugging. Holding it like that is bad for your cervical spine.”

While talking, she reached out, intending to pull the pillow out from under his blanket to put it properly beneath his head.

“Okay okay! I’ll use it later I’ll use it later!”

Yuki clutched the pillow in his arms. If it got pulled out, the loli hiding inside would definitely be exposed.

“What kind of habit is that…”

Since he wouldn’t let go, Ning Xin didn’t plan to force it. After delivering the clothes she turned to head back to her own room.

“Don’t stay up too late playing on your phone. Sleep early…”

She said while walking out. Yuki watched her back and had just let out a sigh of relief when she suddenly stopped at the doorway.

“Oh right, don’t lie down while using your phone. It’s bad for your eyes. Either sit up or go to your desk. Hear me? Sit up. Don’t lie down.”

“Not playing anymore not playing anymore! Sleeping!”

Seeing his mother standing at the door staring at him like she wouldn’t leave unless he sat up, Yuki quickly obediently set his phone beside the bed and put on a pose like he was about to sleep.

“Remember to turn off the light for me… wait, Mom! Close the door!”

Bang. The bedroom door shut. As Ning Xin left, Yuki immediately sat up, threw off the blanket, and yanked out the loli hiding inside. When she got dragged out, this unlucky kid was still playing with the folds of his shirt, trying to arrange them into different shapes.

“Lu Brat! Are you trying to make things worse on purpose? Didn’t you say you can’t turn invisible right now?”

“Hm? Yeah… but if I hide under the blanket she can’t see me anyway?”

The loli in front of him tilted her head with an innocent look. Yuki didn’t indulge her. Seeing her expression that practically said I did nothing wrong, he reached out and pulled her cheeks.

“If I get caught later, I guarantee I’ll sell you out. You climbed onto my bed yourself. You’re the main culprit.”

“Huh? Then this brotherhood can’t continue…”

“We’re not brothers anymore. You’re my wife.”

“You’re the wife! I’m the husband!”

The two bickered when suddenly the sound of the doorknob turning came from the door again. Startled, Yuki immediately shoved Eiru’s head down and covered her again with the blanket.

“Mom what now?!”

“Aren’t you sleeping? Why are you sitting up playing on your phone again? If you’re going to play don’t do it in the dark. It’s bad for your eyes.”

Ning Xin entered once more, saw Yuki sitting on the bed, and reached out to switch the room light back on.

“It’s too early. I can’t sleep. Just playing a bit…”

“No, I just left for less than two minutes right? And you were already about to fall asleep?”

His lousy excuse made Ning Xin scoff, but she didn’t plan to pursue it. Instead she walked straight to his wardrobe.

“I’m just grabbing a thin blanket. Don’t be so impatient. Are you afraid of me coming in because you’ve got a guilty conscience?”

‘Yeah yeah, he absolutely had a guilty conscience…’

Answering in his heart, the little Demon Lord whose head was pinned against Yuki’s stomach couldn’t move at all and was already feeling a bit resentful.

A dignified Demon Lord being held down like this. The more Her Majesty the Demon Lord thought about it, the more annoyed she got. So she simply opened her mouth wide and bit down hard on Yuki’s stomach through his shirt.

“Hiss…”

“What’s wrong?”

Hearing Yuki’s pained sound, Ning Xin, who was still rummaging through the wardrobe, turned her head and noticed his expression looked a bit off.

“Nothing… hurry up and finish and go sleep. I can’t sleep while you’re in here.”

Though he looked calm on the surface, the hand Yuki had under the blanket had already flicked Eiru hard on the head.

Honestly, Yuki had already guessed this girl would mess with him and raise the difficulty. She could raise dungeon difficulty even when teaming up in a game. For this mischievous, fun loving, black bellied loli, not causing trouble in a situation like this would actually be out of character.

“Rush rush rush what are you rushing for? It’s not like I come into your room every day…”

Rеaⅾ οո КatRеаⅾіnɡСаfе

Grumbling, Ning Xin pulled out a thin blanket, turned off Yuki’s room light, and left again. Then as usual, she forgot to close the door.

“Tch…”

Yuki clicked his tongue helplessly and had to climb out of bed to shut it himself.

He pressed his ear to the door and waited a moment. After confirming there really was no movement from his mom’s side, he turned his gaze toward the loli on the bed who was curled under the blanket with only her head sticking out.

Click. To prevent interruptions, Yuki directly locked the door this time. Then under the silver haired loli’s horrified gaze, he pounced onto the bed, threw off the blanket, grabbed her hands, and pinned her down.

“Lu Brat, having fun causing trouble huh? Since you like biting people so much, I’m gonna bite you too, alright?”

“Hm? Separately, or not separately?”

Yuki froze, then instantly understood what this dirty minded loli meant. But he didn’t answer. He simply sealed her lips with his in one bite, using action to interrupt her reckless nonsense spellcasting.

“Li Yuki! Why did you lock the door?”

Third time’s the charm. Before Yuki could go any further, knocking and the sound of the doorknob twisting interrupted him again, and his blood pressure shot up.

“Mom! What do you want now! Can you just handle everything at once?!”
