Demon King – Chapter 809 – Magic Can’t Be Solved by Science

Two days had already passed, yet Eiru still showed no signs of waking up. If anyone had been holding onto a sliver of luck before, now everyone knew that something had gone wrong with this girl.

Temporarily placed in the research institute, the little Demon Lord was being taken care of by the staff inside. Considering her nutritional needs, they periodically injected her with nutrient solution. At the same time, for the sake of her magic power, they placed her in a room with good lighting so she could get as much sunlight as possible.

Led by Doctor Su Yuze, a group of people had been working around the clock in shifts without rest. But forget about a solution, even now they did not know the reason why the girl had become like this.

Yuki also had no leads. With the cover of Jiaqi and Eiya, he had successfully slipped into his little girlfriend’s home and even her room. But aside from a small creature that was also sound asleep, he found nothing useful.

The wardrobe, the drawers, the storage compartment under the bed, even the secret game room underground were not spared. Yuki had almost turned over every place he could think of, yet there was still no result.

Of course, Yuki was not so rude as to rummage through a girl’s belongings casually. All of this had been done with the permission of a certain girl. ‘If you’re looking for something at my place, just flip through whatever you want.’ That had been the little Demon Lord’s exact words back then.

“Lu Brat, you’ve really given me a tough problem this time…”

Sitting by the bed in the room filled with a pleasant girlish fragrance, Yuki held his head in frustration.

Although unlike Eiya before, where the rate of decline kept increasing, Eiru did not seem to be in immediate danger for now. But if she kept not waking up, this was not something that could just be left alone.

“In any case, we can be certain it’s definitely something related to magic. Science and medicine can’t solve this.”

In the game room, secretly exchanging opinions with Eiya and Jiaqi, Yuki voiced his view.

The reason they had to discuss it secretly was because the sisters’ parents were at home. Yuki had only managed to sneak in with the two of them providing cover. Naturally he could not appear openly in a place like the living room.

Eiya agreed with Yuki’s opinion. As the person besides Eiru who had experienced magic and magic power most deeply, she also felt that her sister’s slumber was due to some kind of magical curse or similar effect.

“If only I were still a Daughter of Amber Crystal. At least I could use some abilities to help…”

Sitting on Jiaqi’s lap with her head lowered, Eiya pinched the white heart shaped little tail between her legs, feeling utterly useless.

When something happened to her, it was always her sister who handled everything and helped her. Now that her sister was in trouble, she could not play any role at all. She had a head full of theoretical knowledge, yet could do nothing.

“Don’t talk nonsense. Lu Brat stopped you from being a Daughter of Amber Crystal to save you. If you turned back, forget whether she’d be angry if she heard that, I’d be angry too.”

Quietly scolding his childhood sweetheart, Jiaqi gently bit Eiya’s ear with his lips. Then he pulled her into his arms and coaxed her softly.

“Everyone has limits to their abilities. Don’t say such discouraging things. As long as we find a way, the knowledge you got from Lu Brat will definitely come in handy.”

“Mmm. Then Brother Jiaqi, do you want to squeeze my tail?”

Watching the interaction between this newly formed young couple, Yuki suddenly understood how Jiaqi had felt when he and Eiru had fed him dog food before. After swallowing such a big mouthful of sweetness, Yuki missed his little girlfriend, who was currently acting as Sleeping Beauty, even more.

Sleeping Beauty only needed a loving kiss to wake up. But that clearly would not work on his own little girlfriend. If it did, even if he died of embarrassment in front of a crowd, Yuki would rush up without hesitation.

If Ei Yuan were present, he might even propose to Eiru on the spot and declare his ownership. But since a kiss obviously would not wake her, there was no point thinking about it.

“But since little Eiya can’t do anything either, we’ve hit a dead end. Other than her, no one I know understands anything about magic. At least among the people I know, absolutely no one.”

Slumped on the sofa, Yuki searched through his mind repeatedly to see if he had missed any information. But after he said that, Jiaqi, who was holding Eiya, seemed to recall something.

“Although I’m not sure whether it’s really magic or not, I think I might know someone related to this kind of thing.”

“Who?” Yuki shot upright on the spot. This lifeline had come just in time.

“I’m not sure whether he understands or can use magic, but he seems able to break magic.”

Jiaqi had just been about to explain the specifics, but when he lowered his head and saw his own childhood sweetheart also staring at him with wide curious eyes, he suddenly shrank back.

“Ahem…” Jiaqi coughed awkwardly. “Anyway, I’ll try contacting him. Maybe he might have some way, but he doesn’t seem very reliable, so don’t hold too much hope.”

“Mm, but Brother Jiaqi, you have to be careful. You can’t say everything. My sister’s existence is a secret.”

After all, Eiru’s situation was being strictly kept confidential. Since they did not know who Jiaqi was referring to, Eiya reminded him. Don’t let your mouth get too big and spill things that shouldn’t be said. If word got out that Eiru was not human, everyone’s lives in the future would not be easy.

“Don’t worry, I know my limits.”

Playing with Eiya’s little tail for a moment, Jiaqi leaned forward and rubbed his face against his cute childhood sweetheart, making her giggle.

Yuki frowned. The two of them feeding dog food made him feel that this was no longer a place he could stay. To avoid further damage, he stood up from the sofa.

“Alright, give me some cover so I can head home first. Then I’ll wait for news from your side, Aqi.”

“OK.” Eiya immediately jumped off Jiaqi’s lap and then pattered straight outside.

“Dad, Mom, come out with me to buy something.”

“You child, why have you been buying things so frequently these past two days?” Liu Wan frowned. “Can’t you buy everything at once?”

“Let Jiaqi go with you. Your mother and I are a bit tired today.” Ei Yuan sat on the sofa in the living room, helplessly rubbing his forehead.

He had originally wanted to say a few words to his younger daughter. After all, her older sister’s situation was still unknown, and he planned to go accompany his eldest daughter later to check on her condition. But this matter was being kept secret from Liu Wan, so he could only swallow his words.

“No. Daddy, let’s go together. I want Daddy and Mommy to come with me.”

Running over to grab her father’s hand and shake it, Eiya sweetly acted spoiled, looking like she would be unhappy if he did not go.

After a round of soft persistence, Ei Yuan, unable to resist, finally agreed to his younger daughter’s request. Liu Wan did not have much objection to begin with. The three of them left together for the nearby supermarket.

Taking advantage of Eiya luring the adults away from home, Yuki also quietly slipped out from Eiru’s room. After receiving Jiaqi’s signal that the coast was clear, he swiftly escaped the scene.
