Demon King – Chapter 899 – If You Can’t Win Online, Take It Offline
When playing games with friends, compared to cooperating in perfect sync to clear stages, quite a lot of people probably feel that the fun that comes from sabotaging each other and stirring up trouble is far more colorful.
And our little Demon Lord was exactly that kind of troublemaking loli player. Unless it was something like pioneering new content or speedrunning, in situations where she could guarantee they wouldn’t lose, she would carry out the words “sabotage your teammates” to the very end.
Being on her team wasn’t too bad. Even if your blood pressure often shot up, at least you could still hold the trophy of victory in your hands. But if, like Yuki, you were someone close to her and ended up on the opposite side… then the real torment would begin.
“So this is why I absolutely don’t want to be on the opposite side of Lu Brat… I’m getting targeted to death.” Yuki looked at the respawn countdown for his character on the screen and sighed at how miserable his gaming experience was.
Eiru had even calculated every possible movement his character would make after respawning, which directly resulted in Yuki walking just a few steps only to run straight into traps that his little girlfriend had set up at some unknown time. The gaming experience was truly awful to the extreme.
On Hui Jiaqi’s side, since Yuki was absorbing the vast majority of Eiru’s firepower, he could comfortably run off and bully his own childhood sweetheart.
But considering the little Demon Lord’s multi-threaded brain and her love of stirring up trouble, maybe Hui Jiaqi’s movements were something she had intentionally allowed. With things arranged like this, Eiya’s gaming experience wasn’t exactly pleasant either.
“BrotherJiaqi! You ambushed me again! And why can I step on my own teammate’s traps?! Sis, are you sabotaging me?!”
“How could that be? I’m busy dealing with Stupid Yuki~ Relax, we’ve already won.”
Eiru’s words made veins pop on the two boys’ foreheads.
‘What do you mean you’ve already won? Who are you looking down on? Daring to plant a flag like that, no way, they had to teach this cheeky loli a lesson.’

After suffering taunts in real life, Hui Jiaqi gave up targeting his childhood sweetheart. Controlling his character, he began coordinating with Yuki. The two of them, working in sync, quickly formed a pincer attack on the little Demon Lord’s character and launched their assault simultaneously.
What followed were two system kill notifications. The two boys who had charged forward were once again stylishly outplayed and collapsed in a glorious defeat. The cheeky Demon Lord was arrogant, but she really did have the capital to be arrogant.
Getting brutally abused and still having to endure Eiru’s taunts, Yuki and Hui Jiaqi were now so angry their teeth itched. They were furious, but since they couldn’t beat her, there wasn’t much they could do.
Especially after Eiya rejoined the fight. Fueled by her earlier resentment, she unleashed a frenzied revenge assault on Hui Jiaqi. Although she would occasionally still get pranked by her own sister, the two sisters’ seamless coordination quickly forced the two boys to type out GG.
“Yay!”
Looking at the victory screen, the two sisters gave each other a loud high five. The girls’ joy formed a sharp contrast with the low pressure atmosphere on the boys’ side.
“So bad, Stupid Yuki! Were you going easy on us?”
“Yeah yeah, Brother Jiaqi, you were clearly chasing me the whole time… Did you grow a conscience at the end and couldn’t bring yourself to hit me?”
‘Hiss…’
Facing the sisters’ follow up taunts, the two boys took a deep breath, trying hard to suppress the urge to spank them. But looking at their smug faces, there was no way this resentment could just be swallowed down.

Harboring the same thought, Yuki and Hui Jiaqi exchanged a glance and saw in each other’s eyes the unmistakable look of kindred spirits.
“Lu Brat, how about this. Let’s go again. This time, you’re definitely losing.”
“That’s right, Little Ya. We’ll go 1v1. You’re absolutely not my opponent.”
As if they had just heard the funniest joke in the world, after hearing their declaration, one sister flopped onto the sofa while the other leaned against the armrest covering her face, completely unable to hide the laughter on their faces.
“Pfft hahaha, you can beat me? Just say what game you want to play. I can beat you one handed, Stupid Yuki. I’ll hang you up and beat you casually, alright?”
“Hahaha, I can’t go as far as my sis and give Brother Jiaqi one hand, but losing to you? Impossible.”
Confident in their gaming skills, the two sisters spoke as they handed the controllers to the boys, signaling that they could choose any game they wanted.
What surprised Eiru and Eiya was that neither boy took the controllers. Instead, they suddenly stood up from the sofa and walked over to stand in front of them.
“Y-You two… what are you trying to do? Don’t be sore losers. Game disputes should be settled in the game, right?”
Seeing the slightly ill intentioned smiles on their faces, the two girls instantly felt something was wrong. When Yuki and Hui Jiaqi put down their controllers at the same time, a giant “Danger” character seemed to pop up above the girls’ heads.

“Ah, Little Ya… I think games have a bit of input delay when you operate them.”
“Jiaqi speaks wisely. Whether it’s the internet or LAN, local latency still affects the feel quite a bit.”
“So let’s settle this offline with a real life duel. Zero delay. No cheating.”
Saying it in unison, Yuki and Hui Jiaqi ignored the girls’ protests and frightened looks. Each of them grabbed a loli in their arms.
“Stupid Yuki! You sore loser! Can’t win online so you fight offline! Uwah?! Wuwu!!! I was wrong! I won’t taunt anymore!”
“Brother Jiaqi, you wouldn’t do this to me, right? You used to dote on me… ihahaha! Don’t tickle me! I’m ticklish!”
Yuki and Hui Jiaqi exchanged a look. With perfect tacit understanding, they carried the wildly struggling girls in their arms and each walked into one of the two resting cubicles inside the game room.
“Stupid Yuki, you sore loser! Wuwa! T-There is not allowed! Wu? Mmghh…”
From one of the cubicles came a sound as if someone’s mouth had been blocked. A certain Demon Lord had finally paid the price for her arrogance. After the protests disappeared, only some strange noises surfaced from inside from time to time.
Although no one knew what exactly was happening inside, it was surely some very exciting development. Meanwhile, in the cubicle across the way, the childhood sweethearts were comparatively much more harmonious.

“Mm… I thought Brother Jiaqi was going to do something to me.”
Sitting cross legged, Hui Jiaqi held Eiya in his arms. She wrapped both hands around his arms, finally letting out a sigh of relief.
Hui Jiaqi had suddenly turned forceful and brought her in here alone. Combined with the strange noises drifting over from next door, this dirty minded loli couldn’t help but imagine some rather unhealthy developments.
But Hui Jiaqi was really just holding her like this and didn’t do anything else. Even though she felt relieved, somewhere deep down she also felt a tiny bit disappointed. Especially with the dog food scented noises still drifting over from next door. Hearing the sounds without seeing the scene made it far too easy to let one’s imagination run wild, alright?
“What’s wrong, Little Ya? Listening to their voices, are you starting to think about strange things in that little head of yours?”
Teasing the childhood sweetheart in his arms, Hui Jiaqi, who now knew quite a few of her little private secrets, felt that in some way, the distance between them had grown even closer.
Although the teasing still carried a probing tone. Don’t be fooled by the calm expression on his face. Inside, Hui Jiaqi was panicking like crazy.
‘My brain overheated and I copied Yuki and carried her in here. What am I supposed to do next? I can’t possibly copy what they’re doing next door, right? Little Ya and I aren’t at that stage yet… Wouldn’t that offend her?’
‘You blockhead. We’re already like this, why aren’t you doing anything… You’ve already teased me into this state… Blockhead, blockhead, blockhead! Brother Jiaqi, you’re such a blockhead!’
