Home/ The Demon King Took Off His Little Horns/ Chapter 30

At the critical moment, Saros still chose to “wake up”. He stood up and crossed over Ansel, and the Demon King’s dark blue vertical pupils narrowed slightly. When he opened them again, Old Lynn’s eyes suddenly froze, he struggled for a few seconds before slowly falling down.

Ansel gave him a hand. Of course he could see that Saros didn’t kill him, it was just spiritual magic. This old man probably wouldn’t remember seeing the two of them after waking up.

Besides, this old man still has some magical aura on him.

“I actually finished it for you.”

Saros hummed and pretended as if he had just woken up. He still remembered the fright just now, and tried to grasp the flaws revealed by this angel who is disguised as a demon.

“The one who is best at spiritual magic should be the succubus. I heard that you have succubus blood?”

Under Saros’ meaningful gaze, Ansel didn’t even panic. He thought calmly for a moment and snorted.

“Don’t you know how messy a demon’s bloodline is? Who can tell what blood they have? You really believe those rumors in the newspapers.”

Saros: “…”

He is really quick-witted! Just like a demon! As expected of an angel who has been disguising himself for over three hundred years!

“However, under the spiritual magic of the Demon King, he was still able to struggle for a few seconds.” Saros recalled the performance of the old human just now, and said cautiously, “It seems that human beings are not so weak after all.”

Due to the physical limitations of the body, human beings cannot grasp the realm of the five light wheels that the creator has taken away due to their lack of connection with the supreme magic. Therefore, in many works of the demon realm, human beings are often associated with the word weakness, and this impression is quite difficult to shake off. But Saros is undoubtedly a cautious Demon King, who only believes in his own feelings and judgments.

Ansel tilted his head, not that he thought this was the average level of human beings.

“Judging by his age and the reserves of magic power in his body, he must be one of the strongest among human beings.”

Saros’ eyes flickered.

“How did you know?”

Ansel had already gotten up and walked away from the flowers. His white hair was swaying behind him, and his tone was slightly complicated.

“It’s half speculation, and half because I have been to the human world before.”

He turned his head sideways, as if there was really a sunset in his sunset-coloured vertical pupils, and added the time in the previous sentence.

“Before I became the Demon King.”

Saros’s heart moved. According to his understanding, Ansel, who was once still an angel, must have come to the human world a long time ago?

However, Ansel didn’t dwell too much on this topic. He looked around and saw the winding paths, shaded by flowers and trees, resembling a private garden of a human aristocrat. However, there were human groups of two and three playing and taking pictures here, wearing comfortable and simple clothes. They don’t seem to have an extraordinary status, and just seem like ordinary people.

This made Ansel feel a bit uncertain.

“It seems like a private garden of a human aristocrat, but…”

Let’s go out and see what’s really going on.

The amount of magic power in the air was extremely low, even lower than the supposedly barren Seventh Abyss, but this would hardly affect the two Demon Kings. Saros belatedly noticed that Ansel’s head seemed a little bald, and it turned out that he had no horns. He thought, rather sadly, that he had actually grown accustomed to Ansel not wearing the horn headband.

“Your……”

“Horns? Of course I used my secret magic to conceal them!”

How could Ansel reveal such a big flaw? Just as he explained proudly, he saw Saros showing a somewhat painful expression.

“You, what’s wrong with you? Is it because of the injury just now…”

“It’s nothing.” Saros managed to sort out his thoughts. Then he not only concealed the horns on his head with magic, but also reduced his sense of existence with Ansel. The human world is completely unfamiliar, so it is necessary to be a bit cautious.

His Majesty Saros can always remain calm, rational and impeccable, only Ansel can cause tons of damage to him!

Secret magic? Ah! Then I will also believe in ghosts!

Don’t you mean you【took them off】, right? !

Along the path, the two walked out of the park together, revealing a whole new world.

Along the long street, on the left hand side was a string of small shops, twinkling with neon lights even in the daytime; On the right hand side, there were numerous small stalls, with people stopping in front of the stalls from time to time. This seemed to be a commercial area attached to this park, yet it still looked quite simple. However, across this street, there were rows of high-rise buildings, with aircrafts leaving a white trail cloud occasionally. The Demon King’s ears can even capture roaring sounds in the distance.

This is——

Human world?

Ansel was also stunned because of the view around him. He had indeed been to the human world before, but it was just a brief stay in the depths of a certain organisation, looking at some pictures and records at that time. Moreover, hundreds of years have already passed, and the vigorous development of human beings greatly shocked him.

At this time, he heard Saros slowly speaking beside him.

“It’s interesting, I had no idea that the human world had developed to this extent.”

Even more prosperous than the Demon Realm under their rule.

This certainly makes His Majesty the Demon King a bit frustrated, but he is not an incompetent monarch. Since he has already seen the gap, it is necessary to gain a deeper understanding. He could even turn his head and make a joke to Ansel.

“We two, doesn’t it look like as if we are…..”

“Going to town for the first time?”

Of course, the two bumpkins need to find a place to settle down first, and then contact the demon realm. No matter how advanced, there must be a place similar to the function of a hotel here. 

Saros took the initiative to take over this task. He stood still at the same spot, but his mental power had already fully spread over the area, with bizarre scenes flashing in his mind. About a minute later, His Majesty the Demon King finally found a “hotel” that he could barely accept.

Then he went to call Ansel, who was squatting beside him studying a red stake.

“Let’s go, I’ve found a place.”

However, Ansel refused to get up, and he kept poking the red stake with his fingertips as he said.

“Water element.”

Then, his fingertips moved horizontally, and he pointed to the bottom of the red stake as he continued to speak.

“Water element.”

Finally, he pointed his fingertips to the other end, where there was an identical red stake.

“Water element.”

He made the conclusion.

Saros: “…”

Damn it! He is so cute!

At first it sounded a little strange, but Saros could understand Ansel’s meaning. He also crouched down beside Ansel, staring at the ground together, and Ansel’s fingertips moved to another direction.

“Gas, combustible gas.”

“Sewage.”

Saros also fell into deep thought.

“Well-developed underground pipelines.”

“Mmm!”

Ansel was glad that someone could understand his meaning, and he poked the red stake again.

“If these things can be installed in the streets where the flame demons live, the fire situation there will be relatively contained.”

“There are also these pipe channels, which have many uses and are very neat. If the Demon Realm had these channels, the daily life of the people there would be more convenient.”

His sunset-coloured eyes seem to penetrate through the layers of ground, seeing the massive pipeline system that could make life more convenient. If this can be built in the demon realm….

Saros’ eyes softened slightly, Ansel was really thinking about the people of the Demon Realm.

Ansel is very concerned about the livelihood issues of the Demon Realm. After all, he holds an angelic philosophy and is committed to making every citizen of the Demon Realm live a happy life. He never has the airs of a demon king, and sometimes he even disguises himself and takes his close ministers to some places in the Eastern Region on his days off.

His feet would measure the land suitable for cultivation, and his hand would touch the tip of the demon realm’s rye(grain). With his disguised white hair, he would casually chat with the farming demons in the fields, asking about harvests, rain, and government orders. After he leaves, the farming demons will often find out that the dusty traveler they had a conversation with, was His Majesty the Demon King, who had come in person.

And His Majesty the Demon King is constantly adjusting his way of ruling.

Ansel was so engrossed in his thoughts that he suddenly ended up poking the ground a bit hard.

“Boom!!!”

Suddenly, various panicked human voices came from all around.

“The fire hydrant exploded!”

All of a sudden, water splashed everywhere, and a rainbow hung in the air, above the heads of the two Demon Kings. The surrounding humans couldn’t see the Demon King who was using magic to reduce his sense of presence, and they kept shouting and making phone calls. Saros instinctively covered Ansel just now, and his sleeves were wet. He looked at Ansel who was also looking at him with big round eyes, trying to appear innocent, and sighed.

“Let’s go, find a place to stay first.”

“Sorry……”

“It’s okay.”

“But that thing is called a fire hydrant!”

“…”

* * *

After experiencing some twists and turns, the two Demon Kings finally arrived at the hotel where they were going to stay. This can no longer be called a hotel, but a magnificent building with luxurious paint sprayed on it, with a long red carpet on the square leading to the hall. In the centre of the square was a huge fountain, and in the middle there was a sculpture of an angel playing the flute, with his flapping wings. It looks very exquisite.

Saros silently glanced at Ansel, whose expression was still impeccable.

As immovable as a mountain, indeed worthy of you!

Ansel actually took a serious look at this angel sculpture, and found that the angel’s halo was erected on top of his head with the help of iron wire, making him feel very cordial.

Comfortable! Isn’t this the same as him when he wears horns!

When they climbed up the stairs, Saros had already made all the arrangements, and the hotel staff who were influenced by the spiritual magic stood on both sides, greeting them grandly. They are thinking that these two are distinguished guests, so naturally they will do their best. However, as the sky was getting dark, there was only one large suite left on the top floor, and Saros didn’t care much about it, he just needed a place to stay.

But Saros regretted it the moment the leading hotel staff opened the door for them!

The floor was covered with roses, the room was full of flowers, while the air was filled with a rich fragrance, and the only big crimson bed looked soft and elastic. The service staff respectfully invited them in, and Ansel didn’t think there was anything wrong, but Saros, who has been a Demon King for a thousand years, understood better than him!

This room is clearly that kind of…!

The hotel staff, whose mind has been influenced, still introduced them with a smile on their faces.

“This is the most popular water bed in our hotel, it’s very soft.”

“There are some items on the nightstand with an additional fee, you can use them at any time. I won’t bother you now, I wish you a good night.”

Water bed! !

Additional fee items!

The words of the staff were clearly normal, but due to the nature of his race, these words almost sounded like the train whistle in the mind of His Majesty the Demon King!

Not to mention……

Ansel sat down on this highly rated bed, and his body suddenly bounced. He let out a fresh “huh”, thinking that he missed Bululu a bit.

But Bululu is far away, and this is too expensive!

His Majesty the Demon King often catches his Minister of finance between meetings and squeezes him when he has no money.

Bululu: Ugh! Ugh! Ugh!

So at this moment, Ansel particularly misses his finance minister very much. He was happily bouncing on bed, only to find that Saros hadn’t come in for a long time. He tilted his head and looked at Saros who was standing motionless at the door.

“Aren’t you coming?”

The angel is issuing such an invitation to him.

His beautiful white hair was in sharp contrast with the crimson bedding, which immediately reminded Saros of the sea of flowers that night.

——Floating above the red flowers, the angel spreads its bright wings.

A sense of thirst came from the depths of his throat, even though he knew that Ansel’s words didn’t have that kind of meaning, he still couldn’t help but fantasize. Countless times, he thought, if he had pressed down Ansel in the sea of flowers that night, then in order to keep his secrets, would Ansel have chosen not to resist? But he would always force himself to throw this idea out of his mind, so right now, he restrained himself and sat down on the other side of the bed.

What he wants are not forced feelings, but a more sincere and pure…

Ansel: “Hey!”

Saros: “!!!”

Caught off guard, he was suddenly bounced off the bed.

Saros: “…”

So this is why Ansel was inviting him!

Ansel was still happily provoking him, he really knew how to provoke Saros.

“Are you coming or not? Don’t be such a coward! The one who loses will sleep on the floor!”

Saros: “…”

With his dignity on the line, he will definitely throw Ansel down tonight!
