p1
>...Mm...

>What...time is it...?

>9am...
>A pretty good time for a day off...

>Ah.
>Good morning, Demon King.

p2
>The Demon King
>sleeps in the same bed as me, but...
>~~~
>Huh... Demon King?
>Wait, she's just sleeping normally...
>Did you go back to sleep?
>Hello~?
>I can't get used to this hugging pillow style.

p3
>I'm guessing she's mumbling like this cos she's bad with mornings...
>It's kinda cute, though.
>Please wake up~

>We're going on a date today, remember?

>That's right!!

>Well then, let's go!
>You sure can change moods at the flip of a switch!!
>Can't we at least have breakfast first!?

p4
>Actually, this date, so to speak,
>>Take care~
>was supposed to just be me buying a birthday present for my friend (Shiba-chan)
>but Mom told me to bring the Demon King along.
>The day before.
>Oh, then it should be fun if the two of you went on a date.
>>Once in a while.

>Well... we're just going on an outing...

>How are we travelling? By train?
>Or maybe by air?
>>In human disguise

>So you really can fly, Demon King?
>I suppose.
>Demon King looks like she's having fun.
>It's something like this.
>Shall we fly?
>Let's not. We'll stand out...

p5
>Please mind the closing doors.

>...This feels
>kinda strange.
>Nio.
>Nio.

>Yes?

>Ooh! You really fell for it!
>What an amazing trap!
>I saw it on TV but I didn't think it would actually work!
>What a kid.

>Still, you've got some soft cheeks, Nio.
>I almost poked right through them.
>Yeah, it would've hurt if I had turned my head too quickly.

p6
>Hey, Demon King... What do you do while I'm in school?
>Hm? Let's see...

>I clean up around the house and fold up laundry.

>Wow... Sorry, I just assumed... you'd be goofing off all the time.
>I did make a promise to Tsugumi when we first met.

p7
>Now then.
>What should we do after our date?
>Eh?
>Erm... There should be a two-storey arcade around here.
>Ooh.

>But first, I need to go to the bathroom real quick.
>Alright.

>Just now, there was someone who looked like a foreign model by the general store.
>I saw her~
>Don't tell me.

>She had that white hair and looks that set her apart from regular humans.
>She was a real beauty~
>Well, she's not actually human, after all...

>Was the girl next to her her little sister?
>They didn't look similar, though.

p8
>A little sister... huh... That's wrong too, but...
>It's not really something I can confirm or deny.

>Huh? Where did the Demon King go?

>Woah.
>I thought I'd be able to find her quickly since she stands out, but...

>This is a problem...

>She doesn't have a smartphone... does she~...
>Hrmm...

>D-...
>Demon King~...

p9
>You called, Nio?
>Woah!

>Y-Y-Y-You scared me!
>How come? You called for me, didn't you?
>Well I did, but still...

>I was looking around a (human-style) pet shop.
>I-Is that so....

>I wanted to determine if they had great authority...
>but they got all quiet when they gazed upon me.

>Ah! I see! So you were able to hear me after they had quieted down, huh?
>Just kidding...

p10
>What are you saying?
>Regardless of the situation, what king would I be
>if I couldn't answer the call of my pet?

>Now then, where shall we go next?

p11
>What... was that?
>For just a moment,
>I felt

>kinda happy.
>Two-stories, was it?
>This center of games...

>...Demon King.

>Yes?

p12
>Next time, let's go somewhere more appropriate for a date.

>Like the zoo
>or the aquarium...okay?

>W-We have Golden Week coming up, right?
>mumble mumble...

>Sure.
>That sounds fun!

p13
>I'm home~

>Welcome back~
>Huh? Where's Shiba-chan's birthday present?
>Your hands are empty.
>I forgot!

>Oh crap... I just...
>Did you have fun on your date, Miss Demon King?
>Indeed.
>That glacial confection was quite delightful.
>You mean ice-cream?

>It seems she'll be taking me on another date next time.
>To these "zuu" and "ackwerium" places.
>Heh~

>That's rare.
>To think that Nio would propose such a thing herself.

p14
>?

>You certainly like to spoil people,
>Miss Demon King.
>You've given Nio plenty of fuss.

>But of course. Nio is my beloved pet, after all.

>I wanted...
>to go on...
>an outing too...
>Don't cry, Chidori. Be strong.
