Demon King – Chapter 813 – Is Your Bro Guaranteed Genuine?
Suddenly recalling something a certain loli once said, her voice seemed to carry some strange magic, echoing nonstop in Xixia’s ears and stirring an inexplicable rebellious urge inside this chuunibyou hero.
‘What do you mean I won’t be me anymore? That seriously bothers me. What exactly did she mean… damn it, why didn’t she explain it clearly!’
As everyone knows, courting death is human nature. With both curiosity and rebelliousness provoked, only one thought remained in Xixia’s mind right now.
‘Maybe I should try it?’
Even though the idea appeared, he still felt a bit wary about the unknown consequences. But in the end, curiosity defeated caution. A hero had to be brave enough to challenge the unknown.
“Um, senior… do you want to try wearing my pendant?”
He opened his mouth and encouraged Yuki, who was closest to him. Little did he know that if his dear parents heard him say that, his butt would probably get smacked into full bloom when he got home.
“Why?”
Yuki asked back. He was fairly cautious.
‘After all, you can’t just tell me to wear it and expect me to wear it, right? You’re not my wife. What if I put on this magical item and suddenly turned into a loli like someone before. That would be way too embarrassing.’

“How do I put it… I just feel like if you wear it, it might become the breakthrough?”
Xixia scratched his head. He really did have that kind of intuition, though most of it was curiosity at work. He just wanted to see what that loli was talking about.
The perspective shifted to that dark space. Because of the intrusion warning earlier, Belonia temporarily gave up the idea of tormenting Eiru and hurriedly checked and reinforced the defensive measures of this subconscious space.
Even though it looked like she had an overwhelming advantage, as long as the throne remained beneath her junior, the title of Demon Lord still belonged to her. Right now she had not fully seized Eiru’s body and was only a fragile remnant soul. If she got interfered with at this moment, who knew what might happen to her.
“By the way, since the Abyssal Amber got sent to this world, doesn’t that mean Demon Lords went extinct in your original world, senior?”
Watching her busy figure, the Little Demon Lord yawned. Bored out of her mind, she started looking for conversation again.
“Heh, that world has nothing to do with me anymore. However it turns out is fine.”
Her hands kept moving as Belonia let out a cold laugh. The moment her daughter was mentioned, irritation filled her heart.
“Even if that unfilial girl is still there, she doesn’t have much time left. After that the demon race can continue, but Demon Lords will be completely gone.”
Even though she resented being treated like a tool that existed only for her daughter’s ambitions, Belonia still couldn’t understand why her daughter would do something like banishing the Abyssal Amber. Shouldn’t a Demon Lord put the overall interests of demonkind first? Wasn’t that basically screwing over the entire race?

“Even if she wanted to use the uniqueness of the Demon Lord and let the Abyssal Amber extend her life… she should’ve just banished me alone, right? Sending the Abyssal Amber along with it, does she just not want to live anymore?”
“That’s hard to say…” The Little Demon Lord tilted her head. “Your daughter got the Hero buff, double intelligence enhancement, plus all the massive inheritance knowledge accumulated by past Demon Lords. Maybe she’s already found a way to suppress the Hero’s side effects.”
After all, even Her Majesty the Demon Lord on this side had discovered some possible methods to solve the Hero problem. The senior over in another world should have no reason not to think of something too.
‘But speaking of which, Stupid Yuki and the others should’ve already figured something out by now, right? Though honestly, it would be better for me if they didn’t find anything and didn’t get involved.’
Thinking about what the outside situation might be like, Eiru felt a little worried about a certain chuunibyou hero she had specifically warned.
To find a solution, Hui Jiaqi would definitely drag that guy into this. If things went smoothly, they should be able to find a way into her subconscious without issues. But that idiot better not suddenly have a brain short circuit.
There was a saying. What someone fears most is often exactly what happens. If the Little Demon Lord knew that her kind reminder had instead become the catalyst for that dummy hero to court death, she might very well jump up and smack him hard twice.
—————
In the end, Yuki still couldn’t withstand Xixia’s urging. He took the pendant from him and tried wearing it.

But since he already had a pendant around his neck, Yuki adjusted Xixia’s pendant like a bracelet and put it on his wrist instead.
The instant he secured it, the ornament on the pendant immediately emitted a strange faint glow. That scared Yuki so much he quickly checked his body up and down. After confirming nothing about him had changed, a question mark practically popped over his head.
He turned to look at Xixia. The dummy hero was also inspecting himself from head to toe. Obviously, just like Yuki, he didn’t notice anything strange either.
“No way, was the Little Demon Lord just scaring me? What do you mean I won’t be me anymore? Nothing changed at all.”
Over there, Hui Jiaqi, who was holding Eiya, watched their reactions together with the little childhood sweetheart in his arms. After waiting so long with no result, he couldn’t help asking the pendant’s owner.
“Hey bro, your pendant’s not very good… did we use it wrong or is it out of charge? Or do we need to mess with some Bluetooth pairing or something? Why does it light up for a bit and then stop every time?”
“Pfft, bro…”
Every time she heard Hui Jiaqi call Xixia bro, Eiya wanted to laugh. This time was no exception. She couldn’t hold it in and covered her mouth with her little hand, giggling softly.
“Eiya, what are you laughing at?”
“Nothing, it’s just… is your bro guaranteed genuine?”
Rеaⅾ οո КаtRеaⅾіոɡСаfе
To avoid Xixia hearing, Eiya slightly lifted herself and leaned to Hui Jiaqi’s ear to whisper.
“What are you saying? If this bro isn’t genuine, could my bro be a girl?”
“I’m a pure man, Demon Lord little sis, why are you like your sister?!”
Even though he didn’t hear what Eiya said, judging from Hui Jiaqi’s reply, Xixia had already guessed what they whispered about.
“Your sister doubted me too, I’m telling you, if you don’t believe it, I can totally pull out… pull out?”
Xixia was talking when he suddenly froze mid sentence.
It wasn’t just because saying that in front of a girl really did sound a bit like harassment. More importantly, this dummy hero had been tugging at his waistband while speaking when he suddenly realized a serious problem.
‘Weird. How come I… seem to not be able to pull anything out?’
