The Demon Emperor was Saint Emperor

Chapter 149: You Smell So Good

"Really ugly, much worse than before."

The big loli leaned in closer, examining Lynn’s face from left to right. She had to admit that the big sister’s head-swapping technique was indeed impressive, but why couldn’t she make it look a bit more handsome? How could someone stomach this?

Not every witch is as indiscriminate as an Enchanting Demon. She, as the Gluttonous Demon King, has some standards for quality of life, right?

"What’s important in a man is not his looks, but his strength."

Relentlessly being called ugly by a big loli, Lynn knew it was the makeup’s fault, but hearing it still felt unpleasant. After all, he had been handsome for twenty-seven years and never heard the word "ugly" from a woman’s mouth before.

"Although that’s true, looking at you like this, despite your fragrance, if one has to eat something, your current face just makes one’s appetite disappear."

The big loli pouted and looked a bit troubled.

She hurried over not to catch the big sister head’s cheating, but because she smelled the enticing fragrance under the blood sun.

This Demon Emperor’s demonic aura smells so good, much better than that ugly Demon Dragon Emperor. She had a premonition that if she could devour the Demon Emperor, she would at least rise by over 200 levels, directly becoming the supreme demon, leaving her sisters far behind.

"I am not food, you can’t eat me. If you must eat, you can only eat a part."

Lynn looked at the big loli’s pale, slender figure, with a cute appearance, instinctively responding to her.

"A part is fine; if there’s something delicious, give me a bite! So how do we eat a part?"

The big loli leaned in even closer, her childlike face full of expectation.

"You’ll know when you grow up..."

Facing this outgoing cute loli, Lynn almost blurted out, "If you must eat, you can only eat the hard part," but luckily he stopped himself in time, or he would have misguided the Demon Realm’s Demon Kings.

"I’m three hundred years old this year, not a child! When I was a kid, the Demon Emperor’s great-grandfather was still a little child!"

Hearing Lynn’s words, the big loli was very indignant. Although the age of the Demon Race and Human Race couldn’t be directly compared like this, a three-hundred-year-old Abyssal Demon is well into adulthood; she’s a mature big sister. Why do people always treat her like a child?

Thinking about this, she angrily put her hands on her hips and showed Lynn the back of her head, such a clueless Demon Emperor deserved nothing but her back, not allowing him to appreciate her stunning beauty.

"Did you come over just to throw a child’s fit at me? If you have something to say, say it. I’ll be busy soon."

Though he didn’t quite understand why he felt no awkwardness in his first contact with these Demon Kings, the Demon Emperor had already issued a decree, and he might soon meet the Demon Realm’s high officials in the Proud Demon Kingdom. He didn’t have much time to waste with the loli impersonating a legal child.

"No, I just smelled your delicious fragrance and was drawn over. But looking at you now, I lost my appetite. Once you’re done, take off the makeup and let me nibble a little."

The big loli spoke stubbornly with her back to Lynn, then suddenly dashed out as bizarrely as she had arrived, thoroughly embodying the whimsical aimlessness of a real child.

"I never agreed to let you nibble, maybe bite instead..."

Lynn watched the small figure of the big loli disappear, thinking she must be called Betty. True to her name, she’s like a little treasure. Of course, only superficially. Whatever is hidden beneath her loli exterior, he had no way of knowing.

Anyone who rises to the rank of Demon King and isn’t overthrown by other demons certainly has some skills. Whether it’s Ilya’s serenity or Betty’s charming naivety, both have a high likelihood of being a façade. As a partner, he should try to trust them, but not completely rely on them.

Luckily, he possesses absolute power. Any schemes are just clouds before true strength. A straw might break a camel’s back, but it can’t crush Ultraman.

Not long after Betty ran off, Ilya, who had previously left, returned to inform him it was time to move to the Demon Emperor Palace. That is his designated area, while this is her bedroom, not suitable for prolonged male guests.

Lynn had no objections, as he had seen all her bedroom had to offer, which wasn’t much, and lacked the feminine charm of Human Race girls’ rooms — it was just novel to him.

After "kicking" Lynn out of the bedroom, Ilya silently changed clothes and came out again, leading Lynn to the Demon Emperor Palace.

Along the way, showing the mysterious elegance granted by the Demon King’s Armor, Ilya, on her way to the Demon Emperor Palace, encountered the Gluttonous Demon King Betty, who had also changed her outfit.

Earlier, she had approached Lynn in a cute princess dress. Now, that dress had transformed into battle attire — a Demon King’s Armor similar to Ilya’s style but different in design. This dignified regal gear seemed a bit odd on the big loli, not as naturally fitting as it appeared on Ilya.

Both Demon Kings now reverted to their Abyssal Demon forms. As the leading Demon King, Ilya naturally possessed a dignified aura, whilst Betty seemed slightly pathetic, with her true form failing even to reach one meter ninety — almost the same height as Lynn’s. It’s hard to imagine she is royalty among the Abyssal Demons.

It’s no wonder she looks like a loli in human form; it’s not that she’s pretending to be a little potato but that she truly suffers one of the cruelest height discrepancies with other demons...

"We’re here!"

At this time, Ilya, leading them, stopped. Just beyond the Proud Palace, they had arrived near the Demon Emperor Palace.

Because the Proud Demon Kingdom is the head of the Demon Realm nations, located at the Heart of the Demon Vein, the Demon Emperor Palace is set in the Proud Royal City, separated by a mountain, yet sitting upon the mountain’s peak, while the Proud Palace is only built halfway up.

Traditionally, no Proud Demon King has objected to this. The height difference between the two palaces does not affect the Proud Demon King’s status as the peerless being under one demon, above thousands of demons; they even complement each other.

Only after Ilya succeeded to the throne did she have different views, believing the Proud Palace should be on par with the Demon Emperor Palace, at most the latter serving as the main palace and the former as a secondary one. The relationship between Proud Demon King and Demon Emperor should be one of emperor and king, not ruler and servant.

However, Ilya, who had just assumed the role of Demon King, could not command respect, and it’s impossible to change the hierarchical relationship with the Demon Emperor. Moreover, what Demon Emperor would let a subordinate rise to stand alongside him?

Only the Empress can stand beside the Demon Emperor, not any Demon King.
