Demon King – Chapter 894 – So You’re the One Yelling “Wife” Everywhere?
Since there was an extra Jiaqi with them, it was not convenient for the Demon Lord to fly with so many people, so she decided they would just walk back. Anyway, it was still early before lunch.
Yuki and Jiaqi each held the loli that belonged to them, while the two sisters walked in the middle holding hands, chatting and laughing happily.
“Why the hell does this feel like big brothers taking their little sisters out?” The formation looked nothing like couples going out, making Jiaqi unable to resist complaining.
“No, I think it looks like a dad taking his daughters, ow!”
Before he could finish, Yuki’s calf was viciously kicked by his own girlfriend. Wincing in pain, he lowered his head and met her eyes filled with pure displeasure.
The Demon Lord was just about to say something when the corner of her eye caught a familiar figure. Her playful instincts immediately stirred. She let go of Yuki and Eiya’s hands and suddenly dashed off.
“Lu Brat? Where are you going?”
Yuki was about to chase her when he noticed that in the direction she was running, a bright and youthful girl was standing there looking down at her phone.
Behind her, a little figure like a floating spirit also had its head poked out, watching the phone screen together with her.
“Eh?! Heavyweight, what are you doing?” The girl cried out in surprise as her eyes were suddenly covered while she was focused on her phone.
She was just about to open her mouth and scold the little ghost beside her for pulling a prank when a voice like a synthesized filter suddenly sounded behind her, giving her goosebumps.
“Guess who I am~”

This kind of common cover-the-eyes guessing game became much harder thanks to the Demon Lord’s voice-changing magic. A voice that sounded half male half female half old half young could easily confuse anyone.
Eiru often played this game with Yuki. Or rather, she often played it with him after turning into a loli. But her little hands were far too distinctive. Even if Yuki wanted to fail guessing, he could not.
This time was different. The Demon Lord had no intention of going easy like she did with Yuki. She had secretly done a little trick and interfered with how her hands felt to the other person, cutting off that clue entirely.
“Little Demon Lord, right?”
After thinking for a moment, the girl gave a very certain answer. After all, among the people she knew who would play this kind of joke and could pull off this kind of interference, there was only that black-bellied loli.
“Eh? As expected of the Hero. Dummy really has gotten smarter~”
“I wasn’t dumb to begin with, okay?” Pulling Eiru’s hands off her face, the Hero girl spoke with a hint of helplessness.
“But what a coincidence. I just came out to walk Shang and ran into you guys?”
“Walk Shang?”
Glancing at the small ghost beside her who looked a bit listless yet kept sneaking looks at Xixia’s phone, the Demon Lord instantly understood what that meant.
“She got hit with gaming withdrawal so you brought her out for a walk, right? Let her breathe some fresh air?”

“Nonsense! She got kicked out by her parents! I’m just accompanying her! Damn it, my game wasn’t even saved before it got shut down…”
It had been a long time since Shang had seen the Demon Lord’s group, and her current appearance was completely different from before. She rolled around in midair in distress, regretting that she had never developed the habit of saving in time.
“You unplugged her cable or something? That withdrawal reaction is intense…”
“What else was I supposed to do? She’s been glued to the computer for three days! If I didn’t intervene she’d be ruined!”
“She really has… completely turned into a little shut-in huh?”
Walking over to the group, Eiya looked at Shang and felt speechless. She had heard about it before, but seeing it in person still felt strange.
She had clearly been a lazy cute little girl before who sometimes went a bit crazy at certain moments. Back when they met her in the abandoned school zone, despite her childish appearance she had still carried the aura of a regional boss.
So what was this embarrassing creature rolling in the air because her computer got unplugged? Aren’t you supposed to be some kind of Grim Reaper? At least pull yourself together!
“Wife, take me home to play on the computer, okay? I’m scared my save file got corrupted… and I have a raid this afternoon. We already scheduled it.”
“Don’t call me wife!” The Hero girl showed no mercy. She grabbed Shang and smacked her on the butt several times.
Xixia had once seen herself as a boy, and she was the kind of pure girl who blushed every time she changed into a skirt. Calling her wife like that was basically tap dancing on a landmine.
“Waaah, Little Demon Lord wife save me! Little Xixia wife is so scary!”

Being held under Xixia’s arm and spanked until she yelped, Shang hurriedly called to Eiru for help, only to receive a subtle glance from someone nearby.
“Lu Brat, can I beat her?”
‘Daring to call my little darling wife right in front of me. Tch.’
With veins practically popping on his forehead, Yuki was already cracking his knuckles, ready to replace Xixia and teach this ignorant little thing a lesson.
“Alright, alright. She’s just a kid who doesn’t know better…”
The Demon Lord waved her hand, signaling Yuki not to argue with a child. Even though this child was actually older than all of them combined.
But this girl had lived alone for who knew how many years while keeping a mentality matching her appearance age, so calling her a kid was not really wrong. The broad-minded Demon Lord did not plan to take it seriously and just treated it as childish nonsense. That was if Shang had not added one more reckless line.
“Eiya wife, wah, save me!”
“Damn it! Stupid Yuki, hit her! Don’t give me face! You think you can call my sister wife?!”
“Didn’t you just say she’s a kid…”
“Hit her! I buffed you! You’re strengthened! Go!”

“Yes ma’am!”
The little girl Shang getting beaten up.
After receiving a round of discipline, the sniffling Shang now sat to the side while Eiya gently comforted her with ice cream.
So touched she nearly blurted out thank you Eiya wife, but the killing intent radiating from Eiru forced her to swallow the words and obediently hold her ice cream in silence.
“So Dummy, do your parents kick you out every day?” As her rival and bestie, every time Eiru saw Xixia she could not resist chatting with her.
“Not really. Today they just said Heavyweight had been cooped up too long and told me to bring her out for a walk so she could experience the current city atmosphere…”
“So your parents know about her existence now?”
“My parents already know about Demon Lords and Heroes. Why would they care about one ghost?”
Shrugging, Xixia glanced at the little figure not far away who was eating ice cream while being patted on the head by Eiya, and felt an indescribable bitterness in her heart.
“Little Demon Lord, taking care of this Heavyweight kid is really hard!”
