Demon King – Chapter 777 – Her Majesty the Demon Lord’s Wingman Operation

“Whoa, Brother Jiaqi, look at his transformation on TV… so cool!”

Sitting on the sofa swinging her legs, one hand constantly smacking Hui Jiaqi’s shoulder beside her, the various exciting scenes on the television made Eiya gasp again and again.

Looking at the girl beside him, she was wearing the platinum-white dress he had given her as a gift. Today’s Eiya looked especially adorable in Jiaqi’s eyes, especially those legs covered by gold-trimmed white stockings, making him almost unable to resist wanting to reach out and touch them.

But suddenly touching her would be way too perverted. To avoid his favorability getting dragged down by such reckless behavior, Jiaqi could only laugh awkwardly, desperately suppressing the urge in his heart to pull her into his arms and ravage her.

“Brother Jiaqi, do you think… If I get a boyfriend in the future, will he be as handsome as him?”

“Uh…” Jiaqi was speechless for a moment. Imagining Eiya dating some other guy, his little childhood sweetheart’s innocent words really stabbed him hard.

“L-Little Ya…”

“Mm?”

“I um… uh? I… can I hug you?”

“Huh? If you wanna hug then hug me~”

This level of contact wasn’t anything strange for a pair of childhood sweethearts like them. Eiya flipped over and climbed onto Jiaqi’s lap, sitting on his legs and grabbing his hands to wrap them around herself.

“Haven’t you hugged me plenty of times before? Why are you saying it so awkwardly?”

—— Meanwhile on a certain rooftop ——

“Useless trash that can’t be helped! Hopeless!”

Her Majesty the Demon Lord kicked the wall beside her. Someone’s cowardice had already driven her into despair.

“I already amplified his desire! I even set up such an ambiguous scenario for him… and he only dared ask Little Ya for a hug? He’s such a wimp!”

Because Jiaqi had stayed up almost the entire night yesterday, after Eiya left he naturally went to catch up on sleep. And the situation above was a dream carefully prepared for her unlucky coward of a childhood friend by Eiru.

Through Eiru’s magic, Yuki was also holding a mirror used as a medium, watching how things were developing inside someone’s dream. But what he was thinking about right now was another question. Why didn’t Lu Brat use this trick on me back then? If she had, wouldn’t I have charged straight in long ago?

“I already multiplied the favorability he has toward Little Ya in his heart several times… and he’s still this cowardly. What can I do? I can’t do anything!”

Beside him, Her Majesty the Demon Lord was still complaining about Jiaqi’s lack of drive. Even while saying she didn’t want to bother with him anymore, her hands still had to obediently keep controlling the dream. This ability to control dreams was wonderful but also dangerous. If not handled properly, it was extremely easy for someone to lose themselves inside and never return to reality.

If Jiaqi had even a bit more backbone, she Eiru wouldn’t have resorted to using this kind of method to assist him. Fortunately she possessed absurd calculation ability and years of rich experience controlling illusions, so the chance of this ability going wrong in her hands could basically be said to be nonexistent.

“If you had a move like this, why didn’t you use it earlier…”

Yuki finally couldn’t hold back and muttered.

“Huh? Is it late now? Those two haven’t even started yet, right?”

“No, I mean me… back then if you’d used this on me, I would’ve gotten you long ago. Would I have needed to suffer that long?”

“First of all, back then I didn’t know you liked me…”

Eiru looked displeased. Her slender tail stretched in front of Yuki and lightly tapped his head a few times.

“And what do you take me for? Using a method like this to probe who you like, something that invasive to your privacy… unless you told me yourself, I wouldn’t dig into it at all, okay?”

“Besides, this method wouldn’t work between you and me anyway… I can only control other people’s dreams. I can’t control my own dream. And as the controller, I also can’t let myself directly enter someone else’s dream.”

That said, of course Her Majesty the Demon Lord could also create an image template of herself inside Yuki’s dream according to her personality and appearance. Although the effect would be similar, that ultimately wouldn’t be her.

If she did that, it would carry a bit of a NTR flavor, which disgusted her. She was the pure love champion Demon Lord.

“Going by what you said, the Little Eiya in Jiaqi’s dream isn’t the same either…”

“What are you talking about? That is Little Ya herself…”

Her Majesty the Demon Lord of gossip looked puzzled.

“Didn’t you notice I made them share the same dream? You didn’t think that Little Ya was a fake, did you?”

“Huh?”

Yuki looked into the mirror again and only then noticed that Eiya had somehow already fallen asleep in the back seat of the car.

‘Good grief. I thought you only dragged Jiaqi in alone. Turns out you pulled your own sister in too. But when did you drag her in? I was here the whole time. How did I not notice anything?’

“No need for you to study magic that closely~ Little Ya already has a special physique capable of carrying magic anyway~”

Yuki felt helpless. Still, since Eiru couldn’t control her own dreams, that was rather unfortunate. But according to what she said, she could let other people enter someone else’s dream or something like that?

“Honestly, I really want to see what you usually dream about… if there’s a chance, I’d love to enter your dream and take a look.”

“Don’t. I advise you to drop that idea.”

Yuki’s words made Her Majesty the Demon Lord rare serious, her expression instantly changing.

“Listen carefully. I’m not joking with you about this. No matter what happens, even if I can’t wake up inside a dream, you absolutely absolutely must not enter my dream.”

—— Back inside the dream ——

“Little Ya… suppose, I mean suppose? Suppose if I had a girlfriend, could we still be this close?”

After hesitating for a long time and still unable to say it, the words that reached Jiaqi’s lips ultimately turned into a different question.

“Brother Jiaqi, usually you don’t seem dumb… so how did you ask such a stupid question?”

Rеaԁ οո КаtRеaԁіոgCafе

Eiya showed a look of disdain. This strange question really stunned her.

‘If you had a girlfriend, then wouldn’t you each live your own lives? If I stayed close to you and she saw it and got jealous, what would you do? You wouldn’t seriously tell her… she’s just my little sister~’

“Then if you had a boyfriend…”

“Same thing, dummy! I can’t go telling someone you’re my brother and being close to you is fine, right? Wouldn’t that make me look like a scumbag girl? Of course I’d have to consider my future boyfriend’s feelings…”

If that day really came, Eiya knew she would definitely feel bad inside. After all, Jiaqi was someone who had accompanied and taken care of her through her entire childhood, someone who held a pivotal place in her heart.

Of her only two childhood playmates, now her sister had already run off with someone, and she was left with only Jiaqi. If she could choose, she would hope she could go her whole life without getting a boyfriend, and Jiaqi could go his whole life without getting a girlfriend.

That way their relationship could stay like this forever. She was also a child a little afraid of change, a delicate girl who liked relying on others when it came to companionship.

Although because she was still young or maybe simply lacked that kind of awareness, Eiya hadn’t developed romantic feelings toward him, her dependence on Jiaqi and her liking his company weren’t fake.

“Then…” Jiaqi bit his lip, as if he had finally made up his mind. “Then what if… my girlfriend were you? Or your boyfriend were me?”

“?”
