15: Consultation
"Hahaha, Xue'er, you didn't see Bai Ling's flustered expression at that time, ahahaha..." Leticia, who had changed back into her home clothes, was rolling around on the bed clutching her stomach, making the bed that Xue'er had just smoothed out wrinkled again.
Xue'er looked helplessly at Leticia rolling around like a child, constantly chanting in her heart "this is Her Majesty the Demon King, this is Her Majesty the Demon King."
She didn't know if it was her imagination, but Xue'er always felt that ever since arriving in the human world, Leticia had become completely ungrounded.
The former Leticia would occasionally show her unreliable side, like hanging her misbehaving sister from a tree for an entire day.
But that was only occasional. Most of the time, Leticia was still quite a qualified ruler of the Demon Realm.
But now, the regal aura of a Demon King had almost completely dissipated from Leticia. If the previous Leticia could make people immediately recognize her as the Demon King at first glance, the current Leticia couldn't make people associate her with such a terrifying existence at all.
Look at this girl—petite and delicate figure, snow-white thighs completely exposed to the air. Upon closer inspection, Xue'er could even see the pure white fabric underneath.
Could this be the Demon King?
"Your Majesty, Princess Qila seems to have left the Demon Realm." Xue'er sighed helplessly and then informed Leticia of the news she had just received.
"Oh... what?!" Leticia immediately stopped her wild laughter. She flipped over and sat up on the bed, her expression completely devoid of the joy from moments before. "Qila left the Demon Realm? Do you know where she went?"
Only now did Leticia look somewhat like a Demon King. Regarding Leticia's seamless mode switching, Xue'er could only sigh inwardly: truly worthy of Her Majesty the Demon King.
"Currently unknown." Xue'er shook her head.
Her sources of intelligence were actually quite limited. Knowing that Qila had left the Demon Realm was already quite good.
"She couldn't have found out I'm hiding here, could she?" Leticia began to panic.
If Qila found out she was hiding here, it would be like Mars colliding with Earth.
The good sister she had personally trained would definitely not let her down. When it came to scheming and plotting, Leticia really couldn't compare to her sister Qila.
That damn girl would definitely do things like cutting the internet cable and pulling the electrical breaker while she was gaming.
"According to current intelligence analysis, the possibility is low." Xue'er shook her head. After all, Leticia had barely left the house these past few years, and even when she did go out, she would wear a mask and wrap herself up tightly.
If she could still be recognized like this, Xue'er thought Leticia's downfall wouldn't be unjust.
"However, Princess Qila should know that you're currently in the human realm."
"That's fine. The human realm is so vast—she can't possibly find her way directly to Central City, can she?" Leticia expressed that she wasn't panicking.
"Compared to this, aren't you worried about Princess Qila's safety, Your Majesty?"
"Aside from that guy currently living above my head, there's no existence in the human world that could threaten Qila's life." Leticia was quite confident in her sister's abilities.
As long as she didn't get reckless, Qila wouldn't die. Although she would be at a disadvantage when facing the highest-level human ability users, escaping would generally not be a problem.
"There's nothing else of particular note... Do you have any ideas about the recent insect plague the elves encountered?"
"Flame moths?" Leticia chuckled. "Do you even need to ask? Someone's definitely pulling strings behind the scenes. We just don't know who's doing the scheming."
"You mean this is an attack targeting the Elven Empire?" Xue'er nodded.
"Exactly. Why are you asking about this?"
"An elven friend asked me to inquire. The consultation fee is quite substantial." Xue'er smiled and mentioned a number that left Leticia dumbstruck.
This consultation fee would be enough for her to max out her games ten times over!
Leticia cleared her throat and beckoned to Xue'er with her finger. "Good Xue'er, help me scan this QR code."
This fawning appearance made Xue'er instinctively cover her nose. She was somewhat afraid her loyal heart might uncontrollably leak out.
Such an appearance of Her Majesty had quite a significant impact on her.
The loose T-shirt half-draped over her shoulder allowed a clear view of the girl's slightly raised chest through the drooping neckline. Although Leticia had properly worn bottoms, she seemed to dislike wearing anything on top.
Messy black hair scattered across her delicate face, giving off a unique seductive charm.
Xue'er somewhat guiltily averted her gaze. "Your Majesty, please pay attention to your posture."
"Hmm?" Leticia couldn't understand the destructive power of her current appearance. For someone who could see such a cute girl in the mirror every day, she could no longer make her own heart flutter.
"I'll leave first. Your Majesty, just order takeout today." Xue'er fled in panic.
If she stayed any longer, she was afraid she might not be able to resist doing something insubordinate.
