Chapter 248: Chapter 248: The Great Demon King with Multicolored Feathers and the Brave Shirakawa
That night, the plea for mercy from the Shirakawa family’s girl continued until the wee hours...
...
Waking up early the next morning, Shirakawa Sawahei rubbed his temples, feeling a bit regretful for playing so late with Ise Yu Yuzhijin last night—his biological clock was always good, and he could wake up on time even after staying up late, but waking up and not feeling miserable afterwards were two different things.
Last night, under half-hearted interrogation, the lazy girl couldn’t hold it any longer and confessed to all the bad things she had done and planned to do, including but not limited to choosing smaller eggs when making omelets for Shirakawa Sawahei, sneakily trying out the shampoo he bought, deceiving him that the "Animal World" program didn’t require payment on TV and that only variety and idol shows were available, and secretly dissing him a few times in her diary...
Such misdeeds were truly numerous and hard to summarize.
Although Shirakawa Sawahei doubted whether these deeds were just fabricated excuses by the lazy girl to avoid punishment, he thought that with her temperament, it wasn’t impossible for her to do such childish bad things. So, he could only sternly warn her not to do it again, planning to let the poor lazy girl off the hook.
It was unclear whether she was truly scared this time or if Ise Yu simply wanted someone to play games with, but when Shirakawa Sawahei was about to leave the girl’s room to sleep, she cautiously grabbed him and said she had decided to offer him something good to make up for her mistakes.
"Shirakawa! This is a masterpiece I carefully picked up at Summer Comic - an RPG adventure game! It supports two players, and it’s very famous online!"
"To express my remorse, I’ve decided to let Shirakawa experience the thrill of this game’s first playthrough together."
"..."
Hinata Rion and other Minotaur Artists thought it was great.
"Shirakawa... just play for a while... just a little while."
He’s not much of a gaming enthusiast, but couldn’t resist Ise Yu’s enthusiastic recommendation, so he sat down and entered the game world with her.
Hmm? For some reason, Shirakawa Sawahei felt that the lazy girl’s phrase "just for a while" had an uncanny resemblance to "just the tip, not going in"...
Wait, isn’t "just the tip" something boys usually say? Am I being reverse-tricked by the lazy girl?
Before he could think further, Ise Yu Yuzhijin excitedly handed him a controller, starting the adventure in the game world.
"First, the name... Let me think..."
The lazy girl pondered for a while and typed in the title "Demon King Ise Yu."
"You, a demon king?" Shirakawa Sawahei glanced at her, giving a silent mockery.
"Ah, Shirakawa, you’re so annoying... the gaming world is different from reality! What’s wrong with fulfilling my real-world unattainable wishes in a game?! Quickly, enter your name!"
"I’ll just use the default name."
"That’s not allowed! If the Demon King Ise Yu is accompanied by someone using a default name, what would others think?!"
"Think before you speak."
"I... I mean the game character, not you, Shirakawa... Ah, I’ve got it, how about ’Hero Shirakawa’? As the saying goes, a good demon king must have a hero they can’t conquer. Having a hero around would definitely make me appear very strong."
As she rambled, Ise Yu Yuzhijin gleefully helped Shirakawa Sawahei type in the name and pressed the confirm button, then they entered a backstory introduction.
"Finding the Demon King’s treasure... Oh, oh~ this setting is quite captivating, and it coincidentally matches our names - maybe it’s fate... Shirakawa, let’s set off!"
During the beginner phase, the lazy girl, using her gaming experience, successfully got ahead of Shirakawa Sawahei, but sadly, once he became familiar with the game’s mechanics and controls, "Hero Shirakawa" overtook "Demon King Ise Yu," becoming the backbone of the team.
The most common phrase from Ise Yu Yuzhijin changed from: "Leave that monster to me," to: "Save a monster for me to kill!" The bittersweet feeling, surely only the lazy girl herself could understand.
The unique worldview of RPG games easily makes people immersed. After playing for a while, Shirakawa Sawahei began leading the lazy girl to challenge more powerful levels.
"Shirakawa! Leave that monster for me..."
"Oh, the AOE wiped them out... Sorry."
"..."
The lazy girl could only hold her sugar-free soda and sulk quietly on the side.
As they progressed, the role of Ise Yu Yuzhijin evolved from a companion fighting monsters with Shirakawa Sawahei to a diligent helper collecting items, which seemed to ignite a certain instinct in the lazy girl. She started setting up a small warehouse in a certain spot, storing all kinds of valuable items there. When Shirakawa Sawahei wanted to sell idle items for gold coins, she argued with him for a long time.
At that time, Shirakawa Sawahei felt that Hinata Rion’s suggestion was spot on. Ise Yu Yuzhijin was just like a hamster, hoarding figures and doujins in real life, and even in the game, she liked to hoard equipment, making people both amused and annoyed.
With Shirakawa Sawahei’s efficient clearing and planning, within one night, "Demon King Ise Yu" and "Hero Shirakawa" almost completed what would take Ise Yu Yuzhijin one or two weeks of normal gameplay.
By this time, the lazy girl was already too exhausted and had collapsed, and when Shirakawa Sawahei checked the time, it was already 3 a.m., which shocked him.
RPG games are indeed time killers! However, this didn’t stop him from clearing the current level before sleeping—now on the 19th level, as a Virgo, how could he allow a whole number level in front of him without clearing it?
After finishing the game, he stretched, picked up the girl next to him, and placed her on the bed, then...
Turned on the air conditioner timer to prevent her from catching a cold.
After taking care of everything, he closed "Ise Yu’s Magic Cabin," went to the bathroom to wash his face, and went to bed.
After sleeping for only a few hours, Shirakawa Sawahei felt a bit uncomfortable upon waking up, so he went back to the bathroom to freshen up. The cold water seemed to awaken him, and he made himself a fried egg in the kitchen. After spotting Ise Yu Yuzhijin coming downstairs, he had to turn on the stove again to prepare another one.
"Why are you up so early?"
The lazy girl yawned drowsily, "Isn’t it because of you, Shirakawa? You forgot to pull the curtains last night, and the light from outside woke me up... I’m very sensitive... remember that, Shirakawa..."
Shirakawa Sawahei acknowledged with a nod, placed the fried egg on the table, and the breakfast effectively silenced the girl’s complaints, boosting her spirits a bit.
"Shirakawa?" After eating her fill, Ise Yu Yuzhijin tentatively asked, "Since there’s nothing much to do today... how about we continue?"
Continue?
Shirakawa Sawahei was momentarily stunned, contemplating that he indeed had nothing pressing to do recently...
It’s summer vacation, so spending a bit of time relaxing doesn’t seem unreasonable...
Yes, it’s decided. Things shouldn’t be left incomplete; we must see them to the end. This applies to everything, including games!
"Sure, let’s clear it today."
With his gentle nod, the lazy girl’s excitement surged. After the two of them worked together to wash the dishes and tidy up the kitchen, the girl impatiently ran upstairs, urging him at the doorway.
"Hurry up... Hurry up, Shirakawa!"
"..."
Suppressing the urge to comment, Shirakawa Sawahei went upstairs into "Ise Yu’s Magic Cabin." As he stepped in, he was taken aback by the lazy girl’s adept curtain-drawing move.
