Demon King – Chapter 837 – The Real One Is With Me

Even though a few days had passed, the classmates still could not get used to the reality that someone was actually a girl. A perfectly fine big guy, and just like that she turned into a girl. How does that even work?

From time to time, she could still feel the gazes from others drifting over. Xixia had no mood to pay attention in class. She propped her chin up with both hands and stared blankly at the blackboard.

She could sort of understand that little Demon Lord now. This feeling of being treated like some kind of zoo exhibit on display really did not feel good.

Thinking of that, the Hero Girl glanced at Wei beside her. He still had that same expression, like he was looking at an alien. She could not help but sigh.

Just thinking about how that loli had those two seniors as friends who completely did not care about her identity, Xixia suddenly felt a little envious of a certain someone. While she was here enduring all kinds of strange looks, the little Demon Lord was probably still being taken care of and spoiled by her seniors.

“She’s a Hero. Her mental endurance is way stronger than the average person. Doesn’t she often do socially suicidal stuff and not care at all?”

Inside the second-year classroom, Yuki and Hui Jiaqi thought about Xixia’s situation and casually asked Eiru for her opinion. The reply they got was that they did not need to worry too much.

“She’s a bit dumb, but not childish. There’s no way she’ll just suddenly go dark. And she also has friends like us who don’t care about her identity. Just pay her a bit more attention.”

With a blank expression, Her Majesty the Demon Lord explained her understanding of the situation, then lowered her head again and continued writing on the worksheet in her hands.

“Wait? Lu Brat, what are you doing? Homework? Even you’re starting to grind now?”

As her childhood friend, even before middle school when she had not started acting yet, Jiaqi had never seen her honestly sit down and study or do exercises. Seeing this scene now nearly made his eyes pop out.

Even though he had never seen it, that did not stop Jiaqi from knowing just how ridiculous her talent in studying was, and how unscientific her brain’s calculating ability could be. If even this big shot was going to start grinding, what were normal people like them supposed to do?

“Ah, you know Lu Brat’s current state…”

Yuki scratched his head and explained the situation to Jiaqi.

As long as it did not conflict with what Yuki had told her, the current Demon Lord would pretty much do whatever you asked her to do. And as for teachers, how many of them did not constantly preach about hoping their students would study hard?

Naturally, a certain loli took that as a task assigned to her and was completing the so-called “study hard” requirement according to her own understanding.

“And she doesn’t really have much to do usually. This won’t affect her anyway, so I just let her be. Consider it something to pass the time, so she’s not spacing out all day.”

“As for grinding…” Yuki leaned over to Jiaqi and whispered, “You talk like you could out-grind her even if she didn’t try.”

‘Out-grind her? Yeah right. Competing with a brain comparable to a supercomputer in this kind of thing was basically asking for death.’

“Now that I think about it, why does she usually look so stupid then?”

“Because she’s too lazy to use her brain. She’s been slacking for so long she probably forgot how to write the word serious.”

The day passed quickly, and before long it was time for school to end again. As usual, after taking Eiru to check on Xixia’s situation, and estimating that Ei Yuan would be arriving soon, Yuki accompanied the girl beside him and sent her to the school gate.

“Ah, Yuki? Thanks for the trouble. Want to come over to our place for a bit?”

At the school gate, seeing his daughter being escorted out, and spotting Yuki, the son of his old friend, Ei Yuan looked very warm and enthusiastic.

“No need. I live at school. Asking for leave is kind of troublesome.”

Though a little tempted, Yuki still declined Ei Yuan’s invitation to avoid suspicion and avoid causing trouble for Eiru. Their relationship had not been made public to her family yet. It was better to avoid unnecessary complications.

After exchanging a few polite words, Ei Yuan took his daughter and headed home. Watching the car carrying the two of them drive away, a faint curve lifted at the corner of Yuki’s lips.

Returning to the dorm, Yuki walked to the bottom of a certain “little black room” that still had not been dismantled. He reached out and lightly knocked on the bed frame. A small head poked out from inside.

‘Didn’t expect that, huh? Your daughter is actually still with me. The one who went home with you was just a clone. The real one has been with me this whole time.’

With Eiru in her current state, Yuki had never once felt at ease letting this girl be out of his sight. During the holidays, it had been inconvenient to sneak her in. Not only was it troublesome, he also had to watch out for the two people at home.

But now things were different. This was the dorm. Everyone around was one of their own. How could Yuki possibly miss this chance to bring the kid over?

“Ah, my Lu Brat~”

Watching someone hugging the loli’s head and rubbing it, Jixian and Ziyu were completely speechless.

‘Brother Yukii, have you finally stepped onto the irreversible path of abducting a loli?’

“How’s it on the clone’s side? Your family didn’t notice, right?”

“No…”

The little Demon Lord sensed the situation over at the clone’s side and shook her head at Yuki.

“Little Ya is there too, but she didn’t notice either. She’s still rubbing my head just like you.”

At the mention of Eiya, Yuki thought for a moment and felt he probably needed to find another ally over there to cover for them. With that in mind, it seemed necessary to drag this future sister-in-law onto the pirate ship as well.

“Going to tell her? Then I’ll say—”

“Stop stop stop. Wait until you get home on that side. Your clone’s still in the car, right? If your dad hears it, we’re screwed.”

“Mm? Okay.”

Obediently nodding, Her Majesty the Demon Lord climbed out of the “little black room” and crawled over using both hands and feet, diving straight onto Yuki and forcing him to catch her.

“Sigh. When will this underground relationship finally end?”

‘You two call this underground?’

The two roommates rolled their eyes while chewing on the dog food. They almost wanted to slap this guy who flaunted his girlfriend every day, but they held back.

“By the way, didn’t you say your dads are friends? So your dad is also keeping quiet about his son snatching someone else’s precious cabbage?”

Their relationship being supported by Yuki’s family was not that surprising after hearing their story. But that his family was even helping cover it up felt a little outrageous.

“Maybe my dad just feels guilty about snatching someone else’s precious cabbage, so he doesn’t dare say anything?”

Yuki’s half-joking remark immediately set off a burst of laughter in the dorm. Amid the laughter, a certain loli blankly tossed out a terrifying sentence. The smiles on everyone’s faces froze on the spot.

“If it’s about me dating Stupid Yuki, Daddy already told my dad about it.”
