Miss Demon King, Please Endure a Little Longer - Volume 2 Chapter 14
Chapter 14: I Can’t Reach
***
Aira had a wonderful sleep.
Really wonderful. The beautiful Saintess was tightly held in her arms, with soft and large breasts pressed against her chest, smelling so fragrant, with that sunny, clean, and warm scent.
Such comfort made her feel that even if she were to be ( ) it would be acceptable.
…No! That’s not right! Absolutely not!
Aira suddenly opened her eyes wide, shaking all those weak thoughts out of her head.
She was the Demon King, bearing the future of the demon race on her shoulders. How could she indulge in such small… well, large tender embraces?
No matter how soft and large, the mindset is still small!
By now there was only herself left on the bed, because Lia got up early every day to watch the sunrise, with the only exception being the day she was drugged by the incense.
“Huff~ Yawn~”
Aira yawned and searched around the corner of the bed for her clothes for a long time without finding them. When she turned around, she discovered they had been neatly folded and placed on the bedside table.
There was even a blessing spell on them, making them dry and fresh.
So considerate…
Aira almost went soft, but suddenly shivered, straightened her back, and shook her little head vigorously.
No, no, that was close. She almost had her will corrupted by the large tender embrace.
After getting dressed and washing up, she went outside.
When Aira came outside, she happened to see the ice-blue long-haired girl also walking out.
“Celeste, good morning… why are you wearing that outfit?”
Silver knight armor that hugged the girl’s perfect figure curves tightly, looking very beautiful.
Just a bit menacing with killing intent.
“It’s nothing, just staying alert.” Celeste hesitated for a moment, “Aira, did you have nightmares last night?”
“No, I didn’t.”
Not only did she not have nightmares, it was practically a series of sweet dreams, the erotic kind.
Aira blinked her eyes, seeming to realize something: “Did you have nightmares last night?”
“I don’t know, maybe it wasn’t a nightmare… No.” Celeste’s expression showed a trace of pain, “It was a nightmare, just a very strange one.”
Ah, this couldn’t be because Lia and I slept together naked in each other’s arms, right?
No, definitely not, because it wasn’t the first time, and it had happened many times before without any dreams, so it’s not my fault.
Thinking of this, Aira felt relieved. She stepped forward to take the girl’s hand and said gently: “It’s okay, dreams are reversed, today will definitely go smoothly~”
“Mm.”
With the pink-haired big-breasted girl’s encouragement, Celeste’s complexion also improved.
“Do you have any plans today?” she asked.
Before Aira could finish speaking, the Saintess’s voice came from nearby—
“She’s going to go out on the streets with me today to preach and help me come up with ideas.”
Lia walked over gently, wearing a holy smile on her face: “We already agreed on it yesterday.”
She stood in about the same position as Celeste. Judging from the positions of their delicate feet, both were at the same distance from Aira on the ground. But because her chest was a bit larger, her body appeared closer.
A little closer and she’d be touching her arm.
“Good luck to you both, may everything go smoothly.”
Celeste smiled as she said goodbye, walked outside wearing that full armor, and even strapped on her sword.
Aira blinked, watching her leave.
Really going all out, fully armed like that. What kind of dream did she have last night to give her such psychological trauma?
“Still looking!” Lia bumped the pink-haired girl’s arm with her chest, “If I had been a bit later, would you have gone with her instead?”
“No, no.” Aira quickly said, “I already promised yesterday, so I definitely won’t change today.”
Damn it, hitting me like that, even the Demon King wants to give her a lightning bolt.
But good girls can’t do that.
“Really?”
“Really, look, the day before yesterday I promised Vina, so yesterday I didn’t go with you.”
Aira originally wanted to give an example to prove her credibility, but unexpectedly Lia became unhappy instead, snorted coldly, and pulled her outside.
Why? She won’t even say… Speaking of which, where’s Vina today?
At this time, in the room next to the next room over, the little witch struggled to open her eyes, looked at the ceiling, then closed them again.
Yesterday she went mountain climbing and got physically tired. Last night she had nightmares while sleeping and got mentally tired.
So she won’t get up today, let’s sleep some more.
Zzzz
Awakening from endless darkness, like a drowning soul finally surfacing, accompanied by waves of dull pain and desolation in her head, the girl struggled to open her eyes.
Memory was recovering, but like a dream she didn’t dare believe.
Was that gaze piercing through the void real? Those mad ravings, could they really appear in this world?
And at the end…
“You’re awake.”
Zero opened her eyes and found herself lying on a small bed in a private residence. Beside the bed was a young woman in her twenties, wringing out a hot compress towel.
When she turned her gaze, she saw a gray cloak hanging on the wall and immediately became alert.
“Don’t be nervous,” the young woman with the towel said, “We’re not bad people.”
Looking at the hot towel the other party offered, Zero hesitated.
“I saw you kill someone at the workshop entrance.”
“Not a person.” The young woman placed the towel in her hands, “It was a fishman, a merfolk.”
Zero pondered for a moment, then probed: “Did that fishman deserve to die?”
The young woman didn’t answer directly, but said: “Over these years, we’ve been trying to disrupt the merfolk’s ritual activities. Although we’ve never succeeded, we’ve at least caused them some trouble. The anomalies that started appearing from dawn today have made us somewhat uneasy.”
Dawn today, meaning the midnight anomalies. So, what she saw and heard last night was all real?
Her teammates, and Aira…
Zero anxiously threw off the covers to leave, but the young woman quickly said: “Don’t rush, that gaze last night was just surveillance. If you don’t confront it, nothing will happen, and people can hardly detect it.”
Hearing this, the girl finally stopped moving.
“Surveillance?”
“Yes, we don’t know what its purpose is.” The young woman was silent for a moment, seemingly considering whether she should say it, but finally spoke: “In past years, anomalies of this level only appeared on the night of the ritual, and they ended immediately. But this year it came so early, it’s very unusual.”
Hearing this news, Zero became anxious again: “I have to tell my companions about this.”
“No! Your companions were also seen by it. If they can’t sever the gaze like you did, they’ll be under its surveillance. Telling them would alert it and might even bring danger.”
The young woman persuaded Zero again, but also left her confused.
She felt she might know something incredible, but couldn’t take the next step.
“What exactly is it, and what should I do?”
The young woman smiled and opened the back door of the house: “Since you have doubts in your heart, why not seek answers first? Come with me, great-grandmother really wants to meet you.”
Great… great-grandmother?
