Chapter: Chapter 10
“Hah, a beautiful day has begun.” Finishing the last sip of milk in her cup, Leticia, full of energy, pondered which game to play today.
What happened yesterday didn’t cause her any major reactions. It was just bathing Bai Ling, and she didn’t have any strange thoughts at all.
(Referring to sleeping until two in the morning last night)
The television was still playing incredibly boring news, but Leticia didn’t think of changing the channel. As the Demon King, although she was slacking off now, it was still necessary to understand the enemy’s recent situation.
After all, they might become obstacles on her path of slacking off.
“Sources claim that the Demon Race has found traces of Leticia Infino, and the Demon King is about to return.”
“The Elven Empire is facing its most severe insect plague in a hundred years, with large numbers of trees being gnawed by Fire Moths. The Elven Empress has officially declared a state of emergency for the Elven Empire.”
“The chieftain of the Yellow Ear clan of the Orcs recently posted on social media…”
Knock, knock, knock. The sound of knocking interrupted Leticia’s thoughts.
Sher walked to the door and opened it. “Miss Bai?”
Bai Ling nodded at Sher. “I’m looking for Leti… her.”
Before Sher could call Leticia over, the Demon King, having heard Bai Ling’s voice, consciously went to the entrance. “What’s up?”
“Accompany me shopping,” Bai Ling said plainly.
“…”
“…”
The two girls remained speechless.
After a few minutes of silence, Leticia confirmed Bai Ling wasn’t joking.
“Are you serious?”
“Xiaoya said it would be better if you went together.” Bai Ling explained. She didn’t want any involvement with the Demon King, but Bai Ya strongly requested it.
It couldn’t be helped. As a hopelessly devoted sister-complex, Bai Ling could do anything for her sister. Shopping with the Demon King was not an unacceptable thing.
“I’m not feeling very well today…”
“We’ll depart in half an hour.” Bai Ling had no intention of seeking Leticia’s consent; she had only come to inform Leticia.
After speaking, she turned around gracefully, and her snow-white hair brushed against Leticia’s face.
Watching the back of the white-haired girl disappear around the corner of the hallway, Leticia squeezed a word through her gritted teeth: “Shit!”
It was the weekend, the weekend! Why did she have to go out with this pervert?
Was there any justice? Was there any righteousness?
Why should she, a Demon King who had been a law-abiding citizen in human society for three years, suffer such torment?
“Your Majesty, go change.” Sher’s voice carried a hint of schadenfreude.
Although she was nominally Leticia’s maid, the truth was their relationship was more like that of sworn friends.
“Sher, you’re mocking me!” Leticia shouted.
“No, I’m not,” Sher covered her mouth.
“You’ve been laughing at me, you haven’t stopped!”
“Illusion,” Sher coughed lightly. “That dress you bought last month…”
As soon as that dress was mentioned, Leticia’s expression faltered a bit. Who knows what demon possessed Sher to spend their meager living expenses on that dress, which was only good for looking pretty and useless for anything else.
The dress was quite nice. The only problem was that it didn’t quite suit Leticia’s status.
Leticia was the Demon King, and that dress was extremely cute and pink. When she saw it, Leticia swore she would absolutely never wear it.
“Let’s not talk about it! I won’t wear a dress unless it’s absolutely necessary!” Leticia sternly refused Sher’s suggestion.
“Are you really not considering it? It suits Your Majesty very well.”
“Never,” Leticia shook her head vigorously.
“Then socks…”
“I have many short socks.”
“Okay,” Sher mumbled with a hint of disappointment. Ever since Her Majesty was defeated by Miss Bai seven years ago, she hadn’t seen Her Majesty wear girl’s clothes again.
All the beautiful long dresses from before were thrown to the deepest part of the warehouse by Leticia. After she started slacking off, she completely stopped caring about her image in the eyes of others.
Ah, no, she still cared a little. At the very least, she would still dress properly when meeting the Four Heavenly Kings.
It’s just that the clothes she wore were rather… casual.
A short-sleeved t-shirt and a pair of long pants, very simple, so simple that the Heavenly Kings couldn’t believe it was the majestic empress.
As the saying goes, clothing makes the man. The former Leticia wore clothes specially tailored for her by demon craftsmen with the purpose of highlighting her majesty.
The current Leticia, however, wore ordinary clothes that weren’t even worth much in the human world. The difference was not just a little bit.
No wonder the Four Heavenly Kings and Princess Kira dared to charge into the palace with the Imperial Guards later. If the陛下 they respected were still the same, they wouldn’t dare even with ten times the courage.
“Your Majesty, when do you plan to return to the Demon Realm?” Thinking of this, Sher asked softly.
Leticia’s steps towards the room faltered at this question. “When the Demon Realm encounters a crisis, and Kira cannot resolve it.”
However, as long as Bai Ling could be kept in check, the Demon Realm wouldn’t face any major crises, would it?
