Demon King – Chapter 863 – The BOSS’s Oppressive Presence Physical

This so-called Grim Reaper was not some existence from myths or legends that governed life and death. It was merely a title for the administrator of a small world like this.

She operated this space and managed the “employees” inside, such as skeleton ghosts and fierce spirits. When no one accidentally wandered in for a period of time, she would occasionally go out and lure in those with tainted souls. That was Shang’s current job here.

Through simple probing and conversation, the little Demon Lord gradually gained some understanding of this heavyweight little brat in front of her. Although Shang usually appeared lazy and cute, when it came to evil scum, she would reveal a somewhat deranged and manic side.

“Well, hating evil like it’s your mortal enemy… in a way, this job really does suit you.”

After making a few teasing remarks, Her Majesty the Demon Lord did not want to express too much of a stance on this matter. In any case, what happened here had little to do with her. Rather than wasting energy on that, it was better to find out how to leave.

“Huh? It’s been so many years. Guests who aren’t scum finally show up and you’re leaving already? Is it because I don’t have anything to serve you? I should’ve brought back more stuff last time I went out…”

The little thing floated in midair like a ghost. Hearing that they wanted to leave, she wore a slightly displeased expression and circled around them.

Even if you did have stuff, this place is way too creepy, okay? Broad daylight and sunlight still can’t shine in. Cold winds everywhere… The three girls silently complained in their hearts. It was fine for building courage, but as a place to visit? Hard pass.

“What should I prepare next time? Replace the desks and chairs. Some snacks… Oh right, I need a freezer too, otherwise things won’t keep.”

Holding her forehead while watching the little thing mutter to herself, Eiru suddenly caught a word that sounded off. She said that when she went out, she would bring goods back along the way. Which meant…

“May I ask, when was the last time you went out?”

“Oh, last time?” Shang thought for a bit. “I don’t really remember the time, but I remember I brought back the trendiest new thing back then! Let me show you!”

As she spoke, Shang floated to a cabinet nearby. After carefully opening it, she took out… a camera.

Not a modern digital camera, but an old fashioned black and white one that could practically be displayed in a museum. Watching Shang hold this antique with a proud look on her face, Eiru and the others more or less understood what era this girl was at least from.

“When I was ten, my family offered me to a fragment of Amber Crystal. To survive, I made a deal with it and became a Grim Reaper here~”

No wonder. She really did look like some kind of earthbound spirit. But since she could materialize, that meant she must have a true body she was attached to.

The little Demon Lord analyzed her state based on the information provided. It seemed that because she rarely interacted with the outside world, Shang had retained the mindset of a young child.

But that did not change the fact that she was, in reality, an antique. As for that so-called twenty ton weight when materialized, it was probably related to whatever her true body was attached to. Though it had to be exaggerated. There was no way she was actually that heavy, right?

Since her mentality had not changed much, then that manic hatred toward evil… Thinking of that, Her Majesty the Demon Lord shook her head and forcibly dismissed the urge to pry further.

For a ten year old child to develop such a twisted personality, it absolutely could not be a pleasant story. For the sake of everyone present, it was better not to ask.

“But you still haven’t answered me. Are you Daughters of Amber Crystal? White hair and blue eyes, you should be, right? But Daughters of Amber Crystal can’t grow to… From your souls, you should be fifteen or sixteen, right?”

“Uh? Yes… but I’m not a Daughter of Amber Crystal. My little sister is.”

Seeing Shang’s curious gaze studying her, Eiru felt awkward and quickly dragged Eiya over to act as a shield.

“Wow! Same kind, same kind! Come here, let me hug you!”

Hearing the confirmation, Shang immediately spread her arms and pounced toward Eiya. Realizing something was wrong, the little Demon Lord quickly pulled her sister away. The little thing who missed her target fell flat onto the ground with a smack.

Though what rang out was more like a thunderous boom. The tremendous impact made the entire room seem to tremble. Under the horrified gazes of the three girls, as the dust settled, the floor had visibly caved in into a human shaped crater.

‘So the twenty tons was real?!’

‘Are you trying to kill someone?!’

Through the crater, the three girls could even see the room downstairs. And honestly, for the floor of an ordinary teaching building, twenty tons was indeed a bit much.

Judging from the fact that there was another hole leading straight down below and the continuous crashing sounds, that unlucky kid had probably fallen all the way to the first floor… maybe even into the basement.

“Sis, Sis I’m scared…”

Having just brushed past the gates of hell, Eiya clung to Eiru, her body trembling nonstop.

As expected of a BOSS. Even if she looked cute, her oppressive presence was not something those minor elite mobs downstairs could compare to.

“But judging by her age, she should be an old auntie, right?”

Xixia made a rather offensive remark while forming binoculars with her hands and peering down into the crater.

“More than that. At least grandmother level. Didn’t you see that camera she was holding? That thing alone might be older than my dad.”

“Hey, you two. A girl’s age is taboo. You can’t just casually offend someone like that.”

The only one on the scene who barely counted as a normal girl protested at the offensive remarks from the two “boys.”

“Age, weight, measurements… all taboos for girls. I get it.”

The little Demon Lord waved her hand, indicating it was no big deal.

“Then Sis, why did you still—”

“Because her weight has already…”

As she spoke, Eiru pointed at the massive hole in the floor. Eiya immediately fell silent.

“So compared to that, do you really think mentioning age counts as offensive?”

“I guess… maybe not?”

After another ten or twenty minutes, the three girls finally saw that silver-haired little brat climb float back up from the pit. Watching her covered in dust with a resentful expression, Her Majesty the Demon Lord inexplicably wanted to laugh.

“That’s too mean. You wouldn’t even let me hug you… and we’re clearly the same kind.”

“If I let you hug me, I’d be dead, okay?! What normal person can handle your weight?!”

Flustered, Eiya even forgot to hide her tail. The hollow heart shaped tail stood straight up, reflecting her current mood while immediately attracting the attention of the little thing in midair.

“Wait?! That behind you… So you grew up?! Congratulations! No wonder you survived! So you became a Demon Lord!”

“No, um… actually, I’m the Demon Lord.”

The little Demon Lord weakly raised her hand, trying to correct the misunderstanding.

But Shang, who had fallen into an excited state, was circling wildly around Eiya and did not hear what the other loli was saying at all.

“Yay! If there’s a Demon Lord, that means there won’t be any more Daughters of Amber Crystal! Demon Lord little sister, let me give you a congratulatory hug!”

“Stop right there!!!”
