Demon King – Chapter 881 – The Hero Doesn’t Want to Feed

“Anyway, after she separated from you, this unlucky kid got brainwashed… the reason she didn’t attack immediately when she saw you was because she wanted to lure you to her main body first.”

After exchanging information, the little Demon Lord explained the current situation to the two of them. Shang might look crazy sometimes, but she was actually extremely cautious.

Staying near her main body could greatly strengthen her abilities. That was also why Shang wanted to lure Xixia to the destination before making a move. It was just that a certain Demon Lord interfered halfway and ruined the entire plan.

“Because she was brainwashed, even though Heavyweight still remembers everything, in her eyes, the three of us are targets that must be eliminated.”

“But we were separated for less than ten minutes. Aside from you, who else could deal with that godlike being?!”

Even though Shang was the final boss of this place, Xixia really couldn’t think of any big shot who could knock down someone who could casually tear down buildings, and do it right on her own turf.

“Belonia.”

The moment he heard that name, Yuki’s expression changed instantly. There was no way he could forget it. To him, the owner of that name was a ticking time bomb beside his girlfriend.

“Wasn’t she stuck inside you and couldn’t get out?! Didn’t you promise me she couldn’t stir up trouble anymore? When did she run off again?”

“Don’t get worked up, don’t get worked up…” The little Demon Lord waved her hand, her expression helpless.

“Saying she ran off isn’t exactly right. Her soul is still sealed inside me nice and tight… but how should I explain this…”

Things turning out like this had also been beyond Eiru’s expectations. Clearly under her multiple layers of sealing, that Chaotic Evil shouldn’t have even been able to observe the outside world through her. Before Eiru personally dealt with her, she should only have been able to live inside a pitch black cage.

“It’s because there’s an Abyssal Amber construct here, and it’s the kind that has a direct connection… she’s a Demon Lord after all, so she managed to link to it.”

Her soul was still here, but her consciousness had already slipped out. Put simply, Belonia hadn’t actually escaped from inside Eiru, but after connecting to the Abyssal Amber construct, she pulled off something like remote control.

“Poor Heavyweight. Lost two fights in one night… she probably noticed Belonia’s presence and rushed over to deal with her, and then got instantly crushed.”

The little Demon Lord lifted the white-haired toddler in her hand and shook her. The unlucky twenty-ton loli still had spirals in her eyes and showed no sign of waking up.

Even though Belonia was basically like a little mouse in front of Eiru, she was still a former Demon Lord. Shang ran off to solo her, and the result was only getting hung up and beaten, ending with her being brainwashed.

“But I haven’t researched brainwashing magic before, so undoing it really is troublesome…”

“Then what do we do? If she wakes up and keeps attacking us, you can’t just guard her forever, right?!”

The Hero girl panicked the moment she heard that. If nothing unexpected happened, she would have to take Shang back later and watch over her. After witnessing that godlike battle just now, she had zero confidence she could suppress this silver haired toddler once she went crazy in a fight.

“Hm? No need to panic, I already solved it.”

The little Demon Lord flashed a peace sign and smiled confidently.

She really hadn’t researched brainwashing magic, so she used a rough method instead. She directly knocked Shang unconscious, then rewound her time back to before the brainwashing happened. Problem solved.

“Even if there are any issues, once you’re outside, Heavyweight can’t beat you anyway, Dummy. Relax… the only slightly troublesome thing is her switching between tangible and intangible.”

As she spoke, Her Majesty the Demon Lord reached out and lifted Xixia’s pendant. A faint blue glow appeared on her hand.

“Just so happens your pendant can store magic, Dummy. I’ll add an enchantment that lets you touch spirit bodies… that way if she doesn’t behave, you can just smack her butt.”

“Alright, and then—uwaa! Stupid Yuki, why are you pulling my ear?!”

Just after finishing that and handing Shang over to Xixia, Eiru suddenly had her ear grabbed by Yuki, who had been silent with a dark face the whole time.

“You still dare ask? I told you back then to find a way to deal with her, and what did you say? You said you locked her up and we could ignore her for now! And now?!”

“Ow ow ow! I didn’t want this either…”

As the only one of her kind, the little Demon Lord did have a tiny trace of sympathy for Belonia. But the most important reason was that she simply couldn’t get rid of that Chaotic Evil.

“It’s not that I can’t bring myself to do it… but to avoid multiple Demon Lords killing each other over the throne, the Abyssal Amber placed a restriction on us!”

So even though the little Demon Lord was basically a dimensionality crushing existence compared to past Demon Lords, with the rule that Demon Lords couldn’t harm Demon Lords, the only thing she could do was lock up her predecessor.

Thinking about it that way, the reason Belonia kept trying to win her over back then was probably also because of this rule.

“That’s why I wanted Dummy to deal with her… it also lets Dummy break the Hero’s curse on you. Two birds with one stone, right?”

Listening to their conversation, Xixia, who was holding Shang, looked completely dazed. She had vaguely heard about this before, but she had never actually seen the evil Demon Lord they were talking about.

But hearing them say all that, the Hero girl pieced together all the information she had so far in her head.

Normally, Heavyweight couldn’t beat her. When Heavyweight was in full condition inside her own nest, she could hang Xixia up and beat her. Full condition Heavyweight couldn’t even last ten minutes against that evil Demon Lord. And the little Demon Lord’s plan was for her to go deal with that evil Demon Lord…

‘Wait. Then how could I possibly beat that evil Demon Lord?!’

Reaching that conclusion, Xixia’s face filled with horror.

‘Little Demon Lord, are you trying to send me off to feed?! I’m a Hero, but that doesn’t mean I’m some idiot who’ll run up just to die!’

While the Hero girl trembled inside, Yuki on the other side also looked like he was facing a great enemy. According to Eiru, Belonia’s consciousness was outside right now controlling something remotely, and her whereabouts were completely unknown.

“Not missing at all though? She doesn’t have a body, so she can only connect to Abyssal Amber constructs. So her consciousness is inside that big crystal right now.”

As the little Demon Lord spoke, she even couldn’t help laughing, leaving the two of them confused.

“You know she’s actually pretty miserable. Locked inside me, she couldn’t interact with anything. Finally she connects to somewhere and happily escapes… only to realize it’s still pitch black and she can’t interact with anything.”

As for Shang’s situation, it was purely because Heavyweight ran into the big crystal herself to feed, then got smashed to pieces in return. In fact, even if nobody interfered, Belonia would still have had to live in darkness.

And Shang’s body had already completely fused with the crystal. Even if Belonia wanted to seize it by force, all she could do was drag along a huge crystal that couldn’t move and stare blankly…
