The Hero Reborn as a Demon King Loli

Even if Tiffany didn't finish her work and wanted to leave, Lulum wouldn't stop her. After all, Lulum isn't some kind of demon... who would force someone to do their work for her?

Lulum asked Tiffany to help with the work, but it was only to observe her physical and mental condition.

After observing her all night, Lulum was certain that Tiffany was alright, so she let her go without worry.

Furthermore, Lulum actually knew where Tiffany was going and what she was going to do...

"Lulu, it's still early for class, I think..."

After finishing her meal, Chloe told Lulum about her desire to test her strength. However, just as Chloe was about to ask Lulum to bring Linfil over, Lulum nodded and smiled at Chloe, saying:

"Testing your strength? Sure! I'll test you..."

"If you could help me with the test, that would be great... but where is Linfair? Actually, I wanted you to help me find Linfair..."

If Lulum can help her test her strength, that would be the best thing... In fact, she had originally planned to bring this up with Lulum anyway.

Speaking of which, Lulum hasn't seen her "larger" form yet... This is a good opportunity for Chloe to show Lulum her what she's made of.

However, Chloe realized she was missing a punching bag... well, that punching bag should ideally be a master-level assassin, preferably a dark elf, and the kind that looks like it deserves a beating.

She needs to train after the test, and training definitely requires a punching bag, right?

This is why Chloe still wants to find Linfair.

After hearing Chloe's words, Lulum pondered for a moment, then, as if she had thought of something, said to Chloe:

"Linfei'er... ah, let's talk about it another day, she's on vacation today..."

"A vacation? ...Then let's skip it today..."

Seriously? She still gets holidays even though she's slacking off like this?

Chloe thought to herself.

However, judging from Lulu's reaction, it seems that Linfiel has some hidden story, which is why Chloe didn't actually complain.

……

Outside the laboratory, in a deserted open space, Chloe stretched for a moment, then looked at Lulum, who was five meters away, with a serious expression and said:

"Lulum, let me make this clear first, I'm very~ strong~! You might not know, but I can unleash Saint-level power... You'd better watch out!"

"Saint-level strength? Little Chloe, you've been hiding it well! But I'm really happy that you told me on your own initiative!"

After hearing Chloe's words, Lulum... or rather, Black Lulum, also smiled and joked, which could be seen as her confidence in her "god-level" strength.

"However... you're only at the Saint level, Chloe, you can't be arrogant."

After saying that, Helm's expression also turned serious.

Chapter 169 So your name is Chloe, right?

Halum's expression suddenly turned serious, primarily to signal to Chloe that she was "ready."

Secondly... she was planning to give Chloe a good "lesson".

Although Helm didn't know where Chloe got her power from, she and Lulum had actually suspected it for a long time, but they hadn't confirmed it with Chloe... or rather, they were just waiting for Chloe to confess herself.

Chloe's ability to demonstrate this power to them was indeed very gratifying, but...

It wasn't that she wanted to hurt the child, but rather that she feared Chloe would lose herself if she possessed this power.

Her next "education" was to make Chloe understand that Saint-level power was nothing special.

Only when you reach a certain level of mastery can you truly possess strength...

As for why it was Helm who "educated" Chloe?

If we're talking about combat rather than pure spellcasting instruction, then Blacklum is far more skilled than Lulum... After all, when Lulum created Blacklum, she entrusted her with this aspect of the task.

That's why Lulum sent Black Lulum out to test Chloe.

"Alright, enough with the chit-chat, Chloe, just go all out and attack!"

Helm said with his hands behind his back and a serious expression.

As soon as she finished speaking, Chloe nodded at her... Chloe's subsequent actions were somewhat unexpected by Blacklum.

"So fast……"

After seeing Chloe nod, Helm instantly appeared in front of her, even leaving a nodding afterimage where Chloe had originally stood.

It's easy to imagine just how fast this speed is.

This speed... it is indeed at the Saint level, and it is definitely a relatively high level speed among Saint-level speeds, Lulum thought with some surprise.

The speed is pretty good, but... the attacks are too straightforward.

When Halum saw Chloe rushing towards her, she threw a straight punch, trying to use her speed to strike Chloe's chest.

Hilum simply raised her hand and effortlessly caught Chloe's straight punch.

Although the action was understated, Helm was still quite pleased with the result... This speed alone would be difficult for even ordinary Saint-level beings to react to; it was indeed impressive.

But Chloe's strength is clearly more than that, isn't it? The power in that punch is so great that even an ordinary high-level warrior wouldn't be injured, right?

Are you worried that she might be a mage and wouldn't be able to react at such close range?

Such a lovely child...

So Helum smiled and shook his head, saying:

"Your speed is not bad, but Chloe, didn't you say you wanted to test your full strength? Don't hold back, use your full power... Don't underestimate our strength just because Lulum is a mage~"

That's right, Lulum is a mage, but no matter what, she's still a god-level being... Once you become a god-level powerhouse, even if you're a magic-based class, your physical attributes and reaction speed are unmatched by a saint-level being.

Becoming a god is essentially an evolution of a life form... This is something Lulum only understood after becoming a god.

After seeing Hilum effortlessly parry her attack, Chloe went all out, even using her domain abilities.

After using the domain, two mismatched gauntlets appeared on Chloe's hands; one was relatively intact, while the other was covered in cracks.

As the gauntlets appeared, a broken sword also appeared in her hand... Although these things looked like "junk," judging from the aura of these "junk" items, they were all genuine divine artifacts.

Is this Chloe's true strength? It seems I underestimated this child's power.

Seeing the aura of a domain emanating from Chloe, Helm sighed silently.

Since that's the case, then let's increase the intensity on her... Helm thought to himself.

Then, without bothering to defend, Hilum directly took Chloe's slash head-on.

Chloe was somewhat surprised to see that Helm showed no intention of defending or attacking... but it was too late for her to back down.

Although this strike was still a tiny bit short of her peak level of full power, full artifact, and full buffs, it was indeed her all-out attack so far... In her current state, she couldn't withstand the backlash from forcibly interrupting this attack.

But judging from how easily Blackie handled it, it should be fine, right?

That's the truth; Helm took the hit and was completely unharmed...

Is this the power of a god-level... Demon King? Chloe thought to herself as she looked at Lulum, who was completely unharmed... and whose clothes were not even slightly disheveled.

……

"Lulum, it hurts... I need a hug..."

After testing her strength, Chloe, feeling her muscles protesting and her magic depleted, immediately collapsed to the ground, her eyes brimming with tears, and said to Lulum.

Seeing Chloe lying on the ground crying in pain, Lulum immediately ran to her side, gently held her in her arms, and checked on her condition.

"Your magic, life force, and energy are all completely depleted... Chloe, you silly child, I told you to use your full strength, not like this!"

After checking on Chloe's condition in her arms, Lulum cast healing magic on her while saying with heartache.

"I was just trying to test my limits... but I didn't expect that my strength wouldn't even be enough to make you, Lulum, use magic..."

Feeling that most of the pain in her body had been relieved instantly, Chloe hugged Lulum and said in a coquettish tone.

Although she had even exhausted the magic power of her clone and sacrificed all her energy, it was already a testament to her extraordinary talent that she didn't faint on the spot...

But that doesn't stop her from acting cute with Lulu.

Seeing Chloe still having the energy to snuggle against her, Lulum wore a helpless expression and said:

"Alright, alright... Your body should be fine now, but I didn't expect you to be so mentally active even though you were so exhausted from your magic and energy... Here, let's replenish your energy first."

"Isn't this outdoors? Is this really okay...?" Upon hearing Lulum's words, Chloe stopped what she was doing, looked up, and said to Lulum in a somewhat embarrassed tone.

"Don't worry, I've already set up a barrier around here. Nobody knows what happened here..." Lulum said with a smile, and then tugged at the corner of her clothes.

"But... Stella is still watching over there... Waaah..."

Before Chloe could finish speaking, Lulum covered her mouth with a kiss.

Not long after her mouth was gagged, Chloe felt like she was stuffed full.

What plugged Chloe's mouth was, of course, Lulum's tail... As for what filled Chloe's mouth, it was definitely her vital essence.

Don't forget, as a plant-type succubus, Lulum's tail secreted sap that fed Chloe.

……

"Lulum is worrying too much... I've already recovered."

Chloe murmured softly as she walked with Stella toward the classroom.

As a result, this morning, Chloe did nothing but test her strength and be pampered and fed by Lulum.

Otherwise, why would she go for a walk to school with Stella? Was she just bored?

No, it's more like I'm just too full to eat properly! I need to take a walk to help digest.

But at the very least, Chloe knows what her current limit is.

An ordinary Saint-level being probably couldn't withstand her sneak attack... but against a higher-level one, especially a Saint-level being who was prepared...

To use Lulum's assessment of her, she would say she was—a noob.

Although Chloe knew she was nothing like her prime, she never imagined she'd be this bad...

Please, in her prime, she could fight the previous Demon King to a standstill... but when it came to Lulum, she couldn't even shake Lulum's automatic protective magic power, which is ridiculously weak.

However, Chloe did witness Lulum's strength... The old demon king she replaced back then, who was level 99, was nothing special after all.

Is it that Lulum, at level 91, is too strong, or that old demon king is too weak?

Or rather… Chloe even began to have a guess.

That is to say, she finally began to doubt the strength of the old demon king she had encountered... there was a tiny bit of a problem.

"Never mind, I'll have a proper discussion about strength with Lulum when I get back to the lab at noon..."

Although Chloe knew she was weak, with her current abilities, if she encountered a Saint-level enemy she couldn't defeat, she could simply run away...

Now that she possesses domain abilities, she is completely different from the person she was before, who was suppressed by the domain and unable to break free.

If she can't win, can't she just run? Even if there's a chase, she still has her magical armor...

Once she gets to Lulum's side, what is a Saint-level trash?

Unless it's like a few days ago, where I was inexplicably summoned away... ugh—

Thinking of this, Chloe couldn't help but gasp again... How could she have forgotten about this? If they could summon her once, they might be able to summon her a second time...

If the place where she is summoned next is a hundred and eight thousand miles away from the Demon King's castle... Sigh!

Therefore, we should mention this to Lulum as soon as possible... It's always good to be prepared.

Chloe thought to herself.

Stella, holding Chloe's left arm, looked at Chloe, whose gaze was unfocused and whose expression seemed startled, her own eyes filled with great confusion...

However, being a well-behaved child, she didn't ask Chloe what she was thinking. Instead, she tugged at Chloe's arm and said to her:

"Dad, we've taken the wrong road. This is the way to the library..."

……

Chloe was brought to the classroom by Stella.

However, Chloe didn't feel ashamed at all... Compared to letting Stella see Lulum feeding her, what was this?

Besides, what's wrong with her having her obedient daughter lead the way?

It's not like she doesn't know the way... she was just thinking about something and wasn't looking where she was going!
