Demon King – Chapter 891 – Studying? Study My Ass!

“You two, I’m reviewing here… keep it down a bit…”

A barely audible complaint slipped out of Eiya’s mouth. Sitting on the sofa, she hid her already completely flushed face behind a workbook, occasionally poking her little head out to sneak a few glances.

“Ah, sorry, sorry. We’ll be careful.” Even though her voice was soft, Yuki still caught the future sister-in-law’s muttering and quickly apologized.

“No, I was just saying it casually. This is the living room after all… If I was really afraid of being disturbed, I’d just go back to my room.”

“To put it bluntly, she just wants to watch us show off our lovey-dovey side~” The Demon Lord climbed up from the sofa and wrapped an arm around Yuki’s neck, rubbing her little cheek against him affectionately.

“Though that’s kind of true… what I actually want to see is something more exciting…”

Eiya muttered in a voice only she could hear. Just imagining it a little was enough to make her cute face turn as red as an apple.

‘What am I even thinking? Why do I want to watch that kind of stuff? Sure, they’re great to ship, but I can’t be a bad kid. I can’t be fantasizing about this…’

Unable to stop her own not-so-wholesome imagination, Eiya curled up tighter, continuing to hide behind her workbook. Because of the scenarios running wild in her head, a troubled little whimper even escaped her lips.

“Speaking of which, has little Eiya been this hardworking lately? I haven’t seen you go out these past two weeks. Every time we come over, you’re studying…”

“Huh? Ah? Oh… I’m in third year of middle school now. The high school entrance exam is coming up soon, so I need to prepare.”

Yuki’s sudden question pulled a certain lewd little loli back from her inner world. After spacing out for a second, she hurriedly answered, afraid the two of them would notice something off.

“Oh right, it’s the end of the semester. The entrance exam really isn’t something you can slack off on… If I remember correctly, little Eiya’s grades are pretty good, right?”

“Little Ya is ranked first in her grade. She’s the textbook definition of a model top student.”

Her Majesty the Demon Lord waved her hand as she answered. Knowing that her little sister was actually quite mischievous in private, she loved teasing her with labels like obedient girl and model student.

“Lu Brat, aren’t you ranked first too? If you don’t go easy, no one can beat you…”

“I’m running with cheats enabled. That’s not the same.”

“Come on. Even before you turned into a loli in middle school, weren’t you already ridiculously strong? Your intelligence is something you were born with~”

Rubbing Eiru’s little cheeks with both hands, Yuki’s tone oddly carried the air of coaxing a child. Unfortunately for him, Her Majesty the Demon Lord was no ordinary person and completely immune to that trick.

“Even so, have you ever seen a model student who skips class every day and gets into fights? I’m a textbook problem student. The Demon Lord of Seventh High!”

“So what exactly are you proud of?” Yuki said helplessly, then shifted the topic back to Eiya. “By the way, little Eiya, which high school are you planning to go to?”

Setting aside the whole future sister-in-law thing, the four of them were good friends to begin with. For something as important as the entrance exam, it was only natural to care a little.

“With your grades, little Eiya, you could probably pick any of Huanghai’s key high schools, right?”

“She plans to come to our school. Says she wants to be with us and Stupid Qi…” Her Majesty the Demon Lord shrugged, somewhat speechless at her sister’s plan.

Not just her. After the family found out that Eiya’s high school target was Seventh High, most of them were either neutral or opposed.

Ei Yuan didn’t support it in his heart, but he understood why his youngest daughter wanted to stick close to her sister. Considering that the two sisters attending the same school would make it easier for them to look after each other, he at least didn’t openly object.

Lin Miao, after hearing about it, even went over to persuade his cousin. After all, Seventh High’s reputation outside wasn’t exactly great. With Eiya’s grades, going there really would be a bit of a waste.

As for Liu Wan, that was a whole different story. She had almost flown into a rage and gotten into a huge argument with her youngest daughter. Fortunately, Ei Yuan sensed it early and pulled her aside to analyze things calmly, preventing the situation from exploding.

In short, regarding Eiya’s intention to enroll in Seventh High, the family was either neutral or against it. Even counting Eiru and Hui Jiaqi, not a single person had openly supported her.

“Think about it. Next semester we’ll be in twelfth grade. Little Ya will just be a first-year. We’ll only be there one year before we graduate… The next two years she’ll still be all alone. That’s why I said there’s really no need.”

“There’s also sis Dummy! I can go hang out with her! At least if I go to Seventh High, I won’t be completely thrown into a brand-new environment!”

“No, wait. How familiar can you possibly be with Seventh High?”

The Demon Lord was speechless. The way her sister said it made it sound like she knew the school inside out.

“I hosted a school event on stage with you before. At least I’m familiar with the gymnasium! And… huh? I’ve been inside the boys’ dorm at Seventh High! And I stayed there for several days!”

“Keep your voice down! If Mom and Dad hear that, we’re dead!”

Eiru nearly jumped out of her skin and lunged forward to clamp a hand over her mouth. Back then she had used the rented apartment as a cover story. The fact that Eiya had stayed in the boys’ dorm was still a secret.

“Alright, alright, you two stop messing around. We’ll just take it one step at a time.” Yuki reached out and separated the two lolis, helplessly playing the peacemaker.

“But little Eiya, are you really dead set on going to Seventh High?”

“Mhm! I’ve got you, sis, Brother Jiaqi, and sis Dummy…” Eiya nodded. “I also chat a lot with Sister Yunyue and Sister Lizi. I’m pretty familiar with them. Why should I go to some so-called key high school and deal with a bunch of strangers?”

“If I remember correctly, Seventh High’s admission score is pretty low, right?”

“You bet. With Seventh High’s reputation, isn’t it normal for the cutoff score to be trash? If you can’t get into Seventh High, it basically means you’re not going to high school at all, okay?” Her Majesty the Demon Lord picked up the thread, mercilessly roasting her own school.

“Then with your grades, getting into Seventh High is effortless, right? Why are you studying so hard? I thought you were aiming for some elite school…”

“Eh… Right… Then what have I been nervous about?”

Yuki’s words snapped Eiya awake. She slapped her palm and suddenly realized she had been putting way too much pressure on herself these past weeks.

“Not studying anymore! I’m playing games! Studying? Study my ass!”

She tossed the workbook high into the air, cheered, and ran off with quick little steps toward the game room… leaving the couple standing there in stunned silence.

“Stupid… Yuki…”

“I just meant she shouldn’t stress herself out so much. I didn’t say she should quit studying altogether…” Feeling the ominous gaze from his girlfriend, Yuki shrank back a little. This development was definitely not what he intended.

“Haa, forget it… If it were me, I’d probably be the same.” Scratching her head, Her Majesty the Demon Lord admitted that in that situation, her reaction probably wouldn’t have been any better.

The older sister loved slacking off, the younger sister loved stirring things up… Neither of them could sit still for long. After all, loving to play was just in their nature.

“Later, let’s call Stupid Qi over. The four of us can do some local multiplayer?”

“As long as it’s not Aeroplane Chess…”
