"You were so insistent on establishing this contract because you wanted me to stay with you forever, right?"
Lucarin nodded sullenly. "Human lifespan is so short. You guys can only live for a few decades. I want you to be my demon queen. Decades are definitely not enough!"
"Yeah, right, just a few decades... Wait a minute!" Xia Lin's expression froze. He asked Lucarin word by word, "Did I hear you right just now? Demon queen? Is it the demon queen I'm thinking of?"
Lucarin picked Xia Lin up and sat him on his lap. "Is there any other kind of demon queen?"
Xia Lin was in a daze for a while, but then he quickly calmed down and accepted it. He had been a queen in the first world, so it wasn't a big deal to be a demon queen now.
Xia Lin turned around, pressed his face close to Lucarin's, and rubbed it against his. It was a rather cheesy move, and Xia Lin rarely did such things. But now he was so full of emotions that he couldn't wait to express them. "I'm so happy, Lucarin. It's my honor to be your demon queen."
Lucarin's eyes darkened. He picked Xia Lin up and walked towards the office upstairs, where there was a bed.
"Hey, we haven't finished our meal yet. Isn't this a bit too much?" Although they had been together for a long time, leaving the meal unfinished to do that in Lucarin's office was still a bit embarrassing.
Lucarin gently patted Xia Lin's buttocks. "In our Demon Realm, we believe in doing as we please. It doesn't matter what time it is. When the mood strikes, we just do it! Don't be restricted by so many rules!"
Then... they had a great time. Xia Lin felt like his butt wasn't his own anymore. He pushed Lucarin. "I want to take a bath. I want to soak in the hot spring!"
Lucarin mumbled, "Humans are so delicate," but still carried Xia Lin to the bathroom obediently. First, he helped Xia Lin rinse off, then took him to the hot spring outside the palace. When Xia Lin fell asleep in the hot spring, he carried him back to bed. He was really willing to take on all the chores.
The next day, Lucarin summoned all the demon generals and announced his decision to make Xia Lin the demon queen.
The demon generals exchanged glances and were about to say something when Lucarin, looking like a "tyrant," said, "I won't accept any objections. This is final. I've already established a life - sharing contract with Lin, and he's the only one I'll recognize!"
Seeing the way the Demon King was so afraid of their objections, several demon generals sighed. They were really exhausted. So the Demon King just came to inform them? Yes, he just came to tell them. The Demon King did things on his own will. Once he made up his mind, he wouldn't accept any objections. Now, no one but Xia Lin could make the Demon King change his mind.
However... several rational demon generals looked at Xia Lin. It was obvious that this human was willing to be the demon queen.
Since the matter was already a foregone conclusion, the demon generals stopped their futile objections and went to inform the other demons below. The other demons didn't have high enough status or strength, so they were even less qualified to object to the choice of the demon queen. Surprisingly, there weren't many objectors because most demons thought that although humans were weak, they were more worried that the Demon King would be single for the rest of his life. Now that there was a demon queen, and although the demon queen was human, he had a high magical talent. Now that he shared the Demon King's lifespan, he would surely become a powerful being in the future. Maybe they could even watch the demon queen fight one day!
The wedding ceremony with Lucarin was quite simple. Xia Lin gave a public speech, there was a banquet with some qualified demons invited. They danced at the banquet and received blessings from the priests. Then he officially became the real demon queen.
