Chapter 154 The Demon King Who Goes Hungry

"Hey! What's going on? This appearance... could it be..."

Yes, it was only now that I finally realized that the young girl who was claiming to be the Demon Emperor Cocosiri Chisilica was indeed the real person.

Putting aside her terrifying appearance, this magic power, even if she is not a demon king, is definitely second only to the "Seven Great Powers".

Guh~

At that moment, I seemed to hear some very strange sound. With this sound, Cocosiri Chisilica's magic dissipated instantly, and her face returned to normal, as if everything I had just seen was just an illusion.

"Hehe... I haven't had a proper meal since I was resurrected, so... my transformation ability can only be maintained for a few seconds..."

She looked quite embarrassed as she scratched her head.

"Huh... I didn't hear that wrong, did I...?"

This is a genuine Demon Lord, how could he be hungry?

Guh~

As the sound ended, Cocosiri Kisilica's knees buckled and she collapsed to the ground, seemingly having wasted a lot of energy during her transformation.

"Um... could you please tell me when the Demon Lord was resurrected?"

"Uh...it seems like...it was about a month ago!"

"Ah... a month ago! You mean you haven't eaten anything since you were resurrected?"

Scientific studies suggest that a person would starve to death if they didn't eat or drink for three days, yet she went a month without food or water. Is it because she's an immortal demon king? What an incredibly powerful physique...

"Hehehe...I've eaten things from Kraru and Qisla before...but they didn't taste good...they were hard to swallow..."

"...? Clalu? Qisla? What's that?"

"Grass...and tree bark..."

"ha……"

This is explosive news! The once supreme Demon King, who instigated the war between humans and demons, can barely survive on grass and tree bark!

As she said this, she turned her face away with an embarrassed expression, as if she herself felt that it was a very shameful thing for a demon king to live on grass and tree bark.

"Waaaaah... Waaaah... I've been resurrected... and yet I've fallen in a place like this... I... I... I absolutely cannot let Urakimi know..."

For some reason, this legendary Demon King started to put on an act, but no matter what he did, he couldn't make the tears fall.

"Ah... alright, in that case... I'll take you to get something to eat!"

I never imagined that the once supreme Demon King would be such a delicate girl, and someone who would go hungry.

Seriously, are all demon kings like this...?

No, no, no... If that were the case, the world would have been conquered long ago. After all, who would have the heart to lay a hand on a little girl like that?

"Really? You're willing to take me out for a meal!"

"Um...you wait here, I'll be right back..."

In short, taking her to a tavern or similar place for a meal seems inconvenient, and if she were to casually shout something like "The Demon Lord has been resurrected," she would probably be seen as a problem child.

Thinking this, I walked out of the alley and arrived at the stall.

~~~

"Wow~ What is this! It's so delicious!"

Yes, as expected of the Demon King who has been starving for a month, even when faced with skewers, he'll devour three at once.

Although I had promised to treat her to something to eat, when I arrived at the stall, I realized that besides skewers and bread, there didn't seem to be any other convenient items to carry.

Considering that the Demon King hadn't eaten for a month, I resolutely refused to eat bread, which is hard and easy to get stuck in the throat. If I were to choke halfway through and lose my life, I would truly be a sinner.

Was it considered manslaughter to kill the Demon King?

No, no, no... In other people's eyes, she was just an ordinary family's child dressed attractively.

By the way, will the Demon Lord really die because of this? Isn't she immortal? Even though she was defeated by the Angel God and the Dragon God working together, she has been resurrected now, hasn't she?

In short, I still chose to buy some skewers, such as scallop skewers that look like dried scallops, whole grilled fish skewers that look like saury, spherical skewers that look like meatballs, and many other seafood skewers that I can't name...

In the end, I didn't even know what the Demon King liked to eat, so I ended up ordering a dozen or so of each kind of skewer, which made it impossible to hold them all in my hands. In the end, I had to fill a big box to the brim.

Chew, chew, chew~

So, even the Demon Lord makes those smacking noises when eating skewers?

When the skewers went into her mouth, Cocosiri Chisilica would widen her eyes and look on with obvious enjoyment, then maintain that expression until she ate every last bit of the whole box of skewers, even licking the oil off the packaging.

The figure before my eyes isn't the Demon King, but rather resembles the reincarnation of some starving ghost.

"Ah... The great Demon Emperor Cocosiri Kishirika has been resurrected once more! Hahaha... cough cough... hahaha! Mortals! Tremble!"

Just as I expected, this Demon Lord does indeed make astonishing remarks after eating and drinking her fill. Luckily, I didn't take her to the tavern, or it would have been really troublesome.

"Hehehe! My loyal Demon Realm general! I am extremely grateful for your life-saving grace!"

He's the kind of strange demon king who, after eating his fill, claims to have changed again, and now he's turned me into him.

To be honest, I only treated her to a meal of skewers, it's hardly a matter of saving her life... A demon king with an immortal body like her would be resurrected even if she starved to death.

"Since that's the case! I must repay you properly! I've decided! I will bestow the Magic Eye upon you!"

No sooner had she finished speaking than Cocosiri Chisilica suddenly stuck her fingers into my eyes.

A sharp pain shot through my brain, and the bright world suddenly turned pitch black.

"Ughhhhhhh~"

I instinctively tried to back away, but my hair was firmly held down by a large hand, preventing me from escaping.

It hurts so much!

He tried to swing his hands, but found that he was tightly bound by something like iron chains and could not move at all.

"Waaaaaaahh ...

"What's all the noise about? Are you a man? You yell and scream at the slightest pain. How can you be my demon general!"

I could feel her fingers rummaging around in my eyes for a while before she pulled them out. Then she had two eyeball-like objects in her hand...
