Yū's Love
"If you want to be a servant, I'll go with you, but giving you a ring is also my choice."
Although I don't understand what you're afraid of, this ring is my promise; I will protect you until my last breath.
Xi was silent for a moment, then tugged at Kino's hand.
"Young Master, squat down for a moment."
Kino knelt down as instructed, and before he could react, a small pair of lips pressed against his. The kiss was gentle and brief, yet full of deep affection.
"I love you, Young Master, but I only wish to be your servant."
Xi's voice was as gentle as a spring breeze, her cheeks were flushed, and her eyes were full of love.
"I love you too, Xi."
Kino responded, reaching out to pull Xi into a tight embrace, as if he wanted to meld her into his own life.
The passersby were all shocked by this scene. Although this country claims to be very free, Xi still looked like a minor!
Some people stopped in their tracks, stunned, before realizing what was happening and preparing to call the police.
Several burly men walked over angrily, rubbing their fists together, ready to deal with Kino.
"What are you standing there for! Run!" Gwen rushed over, grabbed Xi and Kino, and ran.
Pamela and Venom followed closely behind, holding Damian tightly.
"Haha, isn't that interesting, Damian?"
"Um."
"Sister Venom, stop laughing, you're about to be surrounded."
Thus, Kino's sight of running wildly through the streets with beauties of various styles was seen by everyone without any concealment.
Gwen ran ahead, holding tightly to Xi and Kino's hands, while Pamela and Venom hugged Damian and tried to keep up.
Their hair flew wildly in the wind, their faces showing either tension or excitement.
Passersby turned to look, some with their mouths agape in surprise, some taking out their phones to take pictures, and others pointing and whispering behind them.
At that moment, they became the most eye-catching presence on the street.
Inside the Demon King's palace, a portal quietly opened.
Xi slowly emerged from within, strolling through the dimly lit passage. The eerie blue firelight danced on the stone walls, illuminating her delicate face.
Her lips would occasionally curve upwards into a gentle, happy smile.
Although she longed to stay by the Young Master's side, there were many matters to attend to in Hell, and she couldn't leave for too long.
Upon arriving at her usual office area, I heard a volatile voice coming from inside.
"Why would demons need to build toilets? Why don't they just let them relieve themselves in the wild?"
"No, Xi said that those lands will be used to build cities in the future, and people can't just urinate and defecate anywhere."
"I used to be just a regular soldier, I don't know how to handle clerical work, and why can't Hulk come?"
"Hulk, he can't even read, what's he doing here?"
"Damn it! When is that guy coming back?"
"I don't know, but I estimate it will take two or three days! Also, I advise you to be more respectful to Xi Zun; she might be the new Princess Consort when she returns next time."
"Her? Turned into a tiny little Radish Ding? How could that be..."
Just then, the door creaked open.
The room fell completely silent.
Blonsky and Basa silently lowered their heads, pretending to be seriously dealing with their business.
Mora placed her pair of murder weapons on the table, her eyes lighting up with surprise the moment she saw Xi.
"Xi, you're back so soon."
"Okay, leave the rest of the work to me!"
Mora quickly made way, saying as if she had been granted a pardon, "That's great! These words were driving me crazy!"
"Thank you for your hard work during this time."
Xi handled the matter skillfully, speaking without looking up.
"It's not that it's hard work, I just really hate these words. By the way, how's your business? Have you won over His Majesty yet? Will I have to call you Princess Consort from now on?"
Mora leaned closer with a gossipy look on her face and asked.
Blonsky and Basa also perked up their ears; they knew what Xi, the Grand Master of Hell, had gone off to do this time.
"Young Master is still my Young Master."
A gentle smile appeared on Xi's face.
The desk on the other side.
Basa straightened their backs, their lips curled into a wide grin, and their faces were full of arrogance.
"I knew it, how could His Majesty possibly like someone as weak as you?"
His gaze seemed to burn with a tangible flame, a deep loathing for Xi.
Even after being defeated by Kino, he wouldn't retaliate against Yu. In his eyes, Yu was just a guy who won by luck using the Hell Permission and didn't deserve any respect.
Blonsky sat quietly processing documents, seemingly oblivious to the surrounding turmoil. After all, his position as the head butler of Hell seemed unlikely to change.
Xi acted as if she hadn't heard Basa's taunts, continuing her work methodically and unaffected by Basa words.
Mora suddenly turned his head, his eyes flashing with a fierce, demonic light, and glared at Basa with a look that seemed to want to devour Basa alive.
Then, she quickly walked behind Xi, stretched out her arms and hugged Xi tightly, her full breasts resting on Xi's head like a soft cushion.
"It's alright, Xi, come again next time."
Mora's voice was gentle.
"How about I show you my body for reference? Humans seem to really like me this way. Even His Majesty was staring at me intently at first."
She gently nuzzled Xi, trying to comfort her friend in this way.
The two of them had been together since they were as weak as ants, struggling in hell.
Back then, in order to protect the two of them, Xi was willing to pave the way for those powerful demons, and was bullied from time to time in exchange for meager protection and pitiful food.
Mora, as Healing Demon, always heals Xi when she is covered in wounds, pulling her back from the brink of death time and time again.
Once, when she was chosen by the former Demon King to meet the new Demon King, Mora did not intend to go, as she was afraid of the unknown dangers.
But Xi clung to a sliver of hope, wanting to take a gamble. On that crowded road, countless powerful demons squeezed them in the middle, but Xi never gave up, constantly changing her appearance, trying to attract the attention of the new demon king.
Even at the very last moment, when she had already given up, Yu was summoned by Kino and luckily granted permission to enter Hell.
Upon returning to Hell, the first thing Xi did was to use her powerful authority to subdue all the demons who had bullied her and Mora, like Nemesis, and mercilessly whip those demons, venting her years of resentment.
Therefore, Yui always felt a deep sense of gratitude towards Kino for giving Kino all of this; it was a feeling as devout as a believer's towards a god.
Yu's feelings for Kino were so complex, like a tangled mess in her heart.
Love, like a magnificent flower blooming in her heart, each petal filled with admiration for Kino —a seed planted by Kino in the darkest hell, illuminating her world like a dazzling star.
However, fear also clung to her like a shadow, like cold thorns entwining that flower of love.
She feared that this love would be as fragile as a bubble, that her affections would be insignificant in Kino's eyes, and that she would lose this hard-won warmth. Caught in this vortex of complex emotions, Xi felt somewhat lost.
So she chose to become a servant, because as long as one is a servant, one will not be abandoned.
