The Hero Reborn as a Demon King Loli

"Huh? Ilesia, why are you crying?"

"sorry Sorry sorry……"

Chloe asked with some confusion, while Ilesia just lay on top of her, apologizing repeatedly.

This brought back bad memories for Chloe… The last time someone cried to her like that, she was a tough guy, and now she’s three… she’s turned into a little girl.

"Shut up! I'm not dead, why are you making such a fuss?! Talk to me properly, stop crying!"

Chloe sat up abruptly, grabbed Ilesia, and began to stroke her fur.

Although his tone was a bit harsh, he was indeed trying to comfort Alesia.

After being soothed by Chloe, Ilesia stopped apologizing, but her crying didn't stop anytime soon.

So she snuggled into Chloe's arms and began to sob.

"Let me make this clear, don't get your snot on... never mind, can you tell me why you're crying now?"

So, with sobs, Ilesia told Chloe about her emotional journey.

"Alright, alright, it's not your fault this time. I did it because I wanted to wake you up... Just remember to send the money."

Seeing Chloe's nonchalant attitude, Ilesia finally felt relieved.

"By the way, do you remember what happened yesterday?"

Seeing that Irelia had finally quieted down, Chloe asked.

"Yesterday? We took the placement test, and then we met the teacher... I don't remember anything after that. By the way, where are we? How did I fall asleep?"

Alesia looked around blankly, frowning as she gazed at the unfamiliar surroundings.

Her answer was exactly what Chloe expected, so Chloe said to her:

"If you don't remember, that's fine. Where we are doesn't matter anymore. Just take me back. My legs are weak..."

"Speaking of which, why do your legs go weak when I suck your blood?" Irecia looked at Chloe with innocent eyes.

“Shut up!” Chloe’s face turned red again.

Chapter Fifty-Five: Invitation to the Abyss

Chloe was thus taken back by Ilesia using spatial magic.

However, after Ilesia arrived at her lodgings, she seemed to fall asleep again as if the effects of the drug had not completely worn off. Chloe looked at Ilesia sleeping soundly and did not disturb her. She simply covered her with a blanket and left the room.

As soon as Chloe stepped out of the room, she saw Linfair sitting quietly on the sofa in the classroom with her back to her, looking very serious.

This surprised Chloe. She hadn't seen her since Linfiel took her to the Demon King's Castle yesterday, and she thought she had gone off to eat, drink, and have fun again...

Chloe was surprised that Linfair would wait for her to return so obediently, and even sit up straight like that. Could it be that she went to take care of important business last night?

Speaking of which, Lin Fei'er seemed to have left with the torturers who were escorting Angeloth yesterday. Could it be that she has some important information to report to me?

However, compared to that possibility, Chloe felt that another possibility was more likely for Linfair...

Thinking this, Chloe walked up to Linfair and looked at her sitting on the sofa, revealing an expression of unsurprised surprise.

Lin Fei'er's eyes were closed, and she still smelled strongly of alcohol; she looked as if she were asleep.

Why was Linfei sitting so upright while she was asleep? It was because there were two dark elf girls lying on her lap, one on each side, on this large sofa.

Chloe recognized the two dark elf girls; weren't they the same dark elves who came to clean the house a couple of days ago?

So they're still in this house?

It's no wonder Chloe didn't notice, after all, the house is quite big, with more than a dozen rooms, and there's even a second floor she hasn't been to before... Chloe has only been living in the house for two days, and she's been quite busy these past two days.

Looking at the three people who reeked of alcohol and whose clothes were disheveled on the sofa, and then at the bottles and jars on the living room floor, Chloe knew without a second thought what had happened.

So what if I gave you a bonus last night because Lulum was quick to report you? Is it really necessary to throw a private party and party all night?

This bonus isn't even as much as her allowance.

Chloe looked at the messy living room with a disgusted expression, and then ignored the dogs running rampant in the living room.

Since there were people in the living room, Chloe simply found an empty room and locked the door.

Her purpose in doing this was to ensure that no one could see her drawing cards.

Just as Chloe had just thought, she had successfully asked Lulum for pocket money yesterday.

She remembered when she asked Lulum for pocket money, Lulum just said to her in a slightly sad tone, "I may not be able to give you anything, but I have plenty of money. Sigh... The Demon King's Castle is so poor now that all it has left is money."

Then he gave Chloe a bag of magic crystals.

Although Chloe really wanted to criticize Lulum's Versailles, considering that she was a god-level demon lord and the absolute ruler of the demon world, it didn't seem inappropriate for her to say such things.

So Chloe felt perfectly justified in depositing the money into the system.

This bag contains over 100 magic crystals, which is equivalent to over 1000 gold coins, or 1000 mainland common coins.

So, in general, Chloe's allowance is only enough for one ten-pull, and then she still has enough for a year's worth of food... That's right, the system's ten-pull is that expensive. You should know that ten gold coins are enough for an average family of three to eat for a year.

Therefore, Lulum giving Chloe this bag of magic crystals as pocket money is already incredibly generous.

After entering the room and locking the door behind her, Chloe quickly calculated that it was an auspicious day, so without further ado, she immediately began drawing cards.

[Do you want to do a 10-pull for items? It will cost 1000 points.]

【Yes】

As usual, the card-drawing interface displayed a white light, which almost made Chloe think she had failed to draw any more cards.

But when she saw the items that had been shipped, she practically took off on the spot and shouted, "Yay!"

[Disguise Card (Half-Elf): After use, completely disguises the user's appearance, body structure, aura, identity ID, etc., as that of a half-elf hybrid with human blood. Duration: 12 hours, Cooldown: 24 hours.]

This is her pass to return to the human race! Although she is not a fully human, half-elves are not uncommon among humans, and there is no difference between disguising herself as a half-elf and disguising herself as a human for Chloe.

I can't believe this card arrived so early! I'm so lucky today!

Chloe hugged the [Disguise Card], grinning like a silly spore.

She then carefully placed the "disguise card" in the VIP spot under her skirt, turned her head and saw other things on the ground.

That's right, Chloe's luck was off the charts this time. In addition to the [Disguise Card] she had been dreaming of and the guaranteed [Upgrade Card], she actually got two usable items in this ten-pull.

Both items are card-shaped. While card-shaped items have a somewhat awkward place in the system's prize pool, there are definitely no useless ones.

[Disposable Curry Stick: Upon use, unleashes a powerful light-based attack; the power depends on the user's level.]

The first card is a one-time attack card. Its effect seems average. Light cannon attacks are meant to clear out weak enemies, and since the attack power depends on the user, it's not very useful.

However, the advantage is that attack cards have no cost, so for Chloe, this card is currently incredibly powerful.

Don't forget, Chloe now has a Saint-level account, which means she can launch a Saint-level light cannon attack without consuming any resources.

Both cards were incredibly profitable, but the third card made Chloe look nostalgic.

This card was her favorite when she was a hero, because it could quickly level her up and also give her a powerful artifact.

After using this card, she will be teleported to a trial ground, or as she puts it, a dungeon.

In this dungeon, defeating three waves of monsters will reward you with a large amount of experience, and you also have a chance to obtain various artifacts.

Even if you fail, it's just a waste of a card.

Half of the legendary artifacts she acquired back then were obtained by farming dungeons using this card; it was a card that would drive any gambler wild with joy.

This card is called—[Abyss Party Invitation Ticket]

Chapter 56 You Can't Make a Living Based on Your Looks

Why does Chloe feel nostalgic for cards like the "Abyss Party Invitation Ticket"?

When the system was still working properly, these cards would frequently appear not only when drawing cards, but also sometimes when defeating powerful enemies and monsters.

It can be considered a very common type of card.

Even during the time when she was frantically grinding through dungeons, this card became an everyday item.

After the system crashed, not only did I not get the card from monster drops, but I also never saw it in gacha pulls.

Now that this card can be drawn from the gacha system, will it also drop as a reward for defeating monsters?

Chloe had reason to suspect that.

However, she doesn't plan to use the card just like that.

Because the [Abyss Party Invitation Tickets] can be stacked, up to a maximum of 9 tickets, the enemy level and the drop rate of artifacts inside also increase with each stack.

Right now, it's just a single card. If you use it directly, you can only fight low-level enemies. You don't gain much experience, and the items you get are all low-level junk. The system can't even recycle them for more than a few points. Even if you get a legendary item, the drop rate is only 0.01%. It's better not to farm it at all.

At Chloe's current level, she needs to save up at least three cards to farm dungeons and reap the rewards.

I'll try playing World of Warcraft in a few days and see if I can get the [Abyss Party Invitation Scroll] then.

Even so, Chloe was satisfied.

Today, please call her the Queen of Luck!

Chloe put away her day's harvest, glanced at the darkening sky outside the window, and decided to go to the cafeteria for a good meal to reward herself for her fingers that had such accurate timing.

……

"Auntie, why is this food so expensive?"

Chloe stood on tiptoe by the window of the academy cafeteria, looking at the demon older sister serving food with innocent eyes.

"This is the noble window. These foods imported from humans are very cheap at 10 magic crystals... Little sister, if you don't have any money, you can go to the commoner window next door, it's free there. Also, I'm a student working part-time, call me sister or classmate."

Looking at Chloe's innocent face, the demon sister in charge of serving food patiently explained.

If Chloe weren't so cute, she wouldn't have given a friendly look to someone who called her "auntie."

"But Auntie, why is it so expensive?"

Chloe felt that the demon sister hadn't understood her meaning. It wasn't that she didn't have money; she just wanted to know why this so-called "aristocratic meal," which only included a slice of bread, a small vegetable salad, and a thin slice of meat, was so ridiculously expensive compared to the commoner's meal next door.

That's ten magic crystals! Ten magic crystals are enough for an average human family to live a life of comfort and ease for several years.

In the Demon Realm, this can only be exchanged for such a small amount of food?

Chloe suddenly understood what Lulum meant when she said, "So poor that all she has left is money."

"Don't call me auntie, call me sister... Fine, since you're so cute, here's the bread for you, go on your way..."

The older woman serving the food couldn't bring herself to get angry at Chloe's innocent and adorable appearance, so she handed Chloe a piece of bread from her staff meal.

Chloe looked at the demon older sister who handed her bread, her expression somewhat awkward.

Do I look like the kind of person who makes a living off my looks? It's not like I'm really broke, so who are you looking down on?

Could it be that I called her "Auntie" and made her angry?

Chloe rummaged through her pockets, feeling a little depressed. Then she paused, realizing that all the pocket money Lulum had given her had been spent on in-game purchases, and she only seemed to have one, two... seven magic crystals left in her pocket.

"What? There's not enough money at all..." Chloe gave an awkward but polite smile, refused the demon lady's bread, and ran to the commoner's window.

It's better not to make a living based on your looks, because that's just the beginning of making a living based on your body... It's more suitable for me to be an ordinary person.

However, when Chloe looked at the piece of meat of unknown origin on her plate, she couldn't help but ask the uncle serving the food, "Uncle, what kind of meat is this?"

"Huh? Little sister, I don't know that either. The delivery guy just delivers the meat of whatever monster he killed..."

Although monster meat isn't necessarily inedible, Chloe felt something was off about this piece of meat, so she immediately sent it for an appraisal.

[Minotaur's thigh meat]

You call this monster meat?

Chloe expressed her physical aversion and returned the meal.

……

As a demon lord who was forced into the role, Lulum is not entirely just a tool for sealing the abyss.

At least the Four Heavenly Kings have gradually handed over the management of the Demon Realm to her, so Lulu has to deal with a large number of documents every day in the Demon King's Castle.

At the same time, he also took on the responsibility of negotiating with various noble forces of the demon race.

Moreover, in the past two days, not only has the situation at the Abyss Seal been quite tense, but most of the nobles have also begun to petition Lulum to allow her to lead troops to attack the human race.
