Chapter 157: Can't I Like You? You, Demon King, Think You're So Great!
Rin was shocked on the spot.
Not because the fox threatened me, but because I wondered, how did the fox know about this.
She left at that time, did she come back later? In that case... the following actions seemed quite similar.
Wait a minute! Does this mean that, I looked silly and embarrassed when I was kissed, acting all dumb, and this stupid fox saw it?!
The black fox listening to his thoughts, just imagining that scene made her heart feel sour and bitter, the fingers that were drawing on his face, gripped his chin.
"I saw everything clearly... your junior's physique really... could use some restraint."
After saying that, Lord Demon King got jealous and ruthlessly bit Rin's lip corner, not only that, but also made a small cut, and used a little trick on it.
It's just a small curse, making this wound unable to be healed with low-level treatment, it will need more than three days to recover.
"Stupid fox! What are you doing?!"
Rin was somewhat reluctant, if you want to kiss, then kiss properly, he endured it, and had to make it painful for no reason... okay he endured it.
"Hey, junior brother."
Suyu still looked dangerous, with a bit of malice in her smile, "What were you thinking? Sword Saint, isn't she your sister? Does it really not matter to you? That is..."
Before she could finish those two words, Rin quickly interrupted her.
"Yuki was adopted!"
Suyu first breathed a sigh of relief, thankful it wasn't a very serious issue, then felt something was not right.
Without any blood relation, but having this complicated sibling relationship... isn't that even more dangerous!
Lord Demon King became more alert, his sharp teeth almost grinding, he spoke in a harsh tone like Rin, "Does it all not matter? Anyway, I've recorded what I needed to. Aren't you worried about it being made public, junior brother?"
"You..."
Rin was somewhat embarrassed and angry, "Stupid fox, what are you planning? Just say it directly! I, for one, hate threats the most!"
As he spoke, he freed himself from the dazed fox he had shouted at, who sat up and turned her head to the side.
After a while, seeing no reaction from the fox, he sneakily glanced at Suyu and noticed her pale face and hints of sadness.
Feeling uneasy, he gently tapped her and asked, "Hey...Fox...senior, are you okay?"
"What...could be wrong?"
Suyu also sat up, her hand on her chest where it was throbbing painfully, the sadness spreading and making her eyes slightly red.
Although he knew he didn't really mean it, hearing those two words was still upsetting.
The fox took a deep breath, stood up, and sadly said to Rin, "Since you dislike me so much as a junior...I won't bother you anymore."
Rin suddenly felt panicked and grabbed her hand, asking, "Hey fox, where are you going?"
With a hint of magic, Suyu pushed Rin's hand away, trying to uphold her dignity as the Demon King, "This is your room, right? I shouldn't have come anyway, since I'm just annoying."
Rin suddenly felt hurt inside, tried to reach out to her again, but got pushed away by magic, and could only grab her sleeve.
"Don't talk nonsense... I... I didn't say that! I clearly said I dislike threats... It's not you I dislike!"
As he spoke, he tugged at Suyu's sleeve again, his ears turning slightly red as he stumbled over his words, "I... If I dislike foxes, then why... why would I kiss you... and also..."
He suddenly looked up, a little angry, "Don't think I don't know you secretly kissed me last time while I was still half asleep!"
Suyu's hand trembled slightly, her once cold and sorrowful heart now starting to warm up.
"But, the junior brother clearly said he dislikes..."
"You smelly fox! Do you have a problem with reading comprehension?! Or is your ears faulty and only hear the word dislike? What if I said, I like the voice and knowledge of a black fox, could you only hear..."
"Junior brother, what did you just say... like?"
Suyu's face lit up with joy, as if spring had returned, but in an instant, it all melted away.
She turned around and bent down close to Rin, looking as if she wanted to eat him up.
Rin's mouth twitched, feeling a bit scared as he scooted back a little, "See...I told you there's something wrong with your fox ears, only hearing 'like'... like two words."
"Does the junior student like me?"
Lord Demon King remained unfazed, getting closer to her again, making Rin feel embarrassed as he continued to move back.
"N-no... what nonsense, I just meant, I like your voice..."
"Like?"
"For heaven's sake..."
At that moment, Rin suddenly felt a bit weary.
Is this fox having some major mental issue, why is she so difficult to communicate with?
It's clear that Fate is determined to be Waste Hero's lifelong nemesis, his thought process is so difficult to understand... or maybe he's just not a normal person! Whether human or demon!
Feeling pressured, Rin finally lost his temper and gave Suyu a fierce pat on the hand, "So what if I like her! What's wrong... you think you're so great as the Demon King? Can't others like her? It's not that kind of like... I just find the smelly fox cute when she's not being crazy."
Moreover, the fox is very talented, the most knowledgeable person he has ever met, always patiently teaching him, going out of his way to help him, having a unique charm when quiet, so attractive that he can't look away.
Actually, she has a very good temper... despite being the lofty Demon King, there is no barrier between them, and he is not constantly tormented by inner turmoil because of her.
A black fox like this is very hard not to like, of course, in a normal way!
"Just... just don't threaten me like that, it makes me feel... uncomfortable," Rin added quietly.
"I was just kidding around with my little junior, how could it be seen as a threat... the junior really doesn't understand humor."
Suyu felt slightly annoyed at herself, just because of the word "annoying," she lost her sense of proportion, didn't care about mind-reading, just knew how to make a mountain out of a molehill, acting like a petulant little girl, it was simply beyond comprehension.
Now, just because of the word "like," she was overjoyed, too... too embarrassing, but... can't control it!
The evil Lord Demon King smiled slyly, like a fox about to trick a chicken, getting closer to Rin and whispering in his ear.
"Will you, my junior, obediently do as your senior says, and do the same thing Sword Saint did?"
