Chapter 44: Campus Legend: The Silver-Haired Demon (1)

Coco quickly shook her head and said anxiously, “Master, no, that’s not it.

Coco wasn’t bullied!”

“It’s just that after school, a lot of classmates followed me back to the dormitory.

They looked very aggressive and said they wanted to find Miss Yiluo.

No matter what I did, I couldn’t stop them.”

Coco looked like she was about to cry.

It was obvious how worried she was.

Yiluo carefully looked Coco up and down again from left to right.

After confirming there was indeed nothing wrong, she clenched her little fist and ran back into the room, grabbing the great sword that was even taller than herself.

She shouted as she did so, “Did those little brats set their sights on you, Coco?

As long as I’m here, no one is taking Coco away from me!”

“They even dared to come to the dormitory to look for me.

I’ll beat them half to death!”

Just how beautiful Coco was, Yiluo knew better than anyone.

If she herself didn’t already have a wife and child and were still in the prime of her youth, she would probably have fallen for her too.

Those people must be coveting my Coco’s beauty and came to beg me, her master, to give them a chance!

But that will absolutely not happen!

Absolutely not!

Even if she could understand it, how could she possibly hand over Coco—whom she treated like a daughter—to someone else, to be taken just like that?

However, thinking of this, Yiluo suddenly stopped.

She turned her head and questioned Coco suspiciously, “Coco, did you feel that any boy looked especially handsome today?

Like, someone you felt closer to, wanted to talk to more, maybe had a bit of a good impression…”

Hearing Yiluo’s words, Coco pursed her lips.

She got a little angry and lightly pounded Yiluo’s shoulders with both fists, saying, “Miss Yiluo!

What kind of nonsense are you thinking about?!”

“My master is Miss Yiluo.

I only like Miss Yiluo.

How could I possibly develop feelings for anyone else?”

Hearing this, Yiluo felt her heart relax.

If Coco really had taken a liking to some punk, she honestly wouldn’t know what to do.

“Hehe…”

Yiluo chuckled, rolled up her sleeves—only to realize she was wearing a camisole nightdress with no sleeves—and gave up.

She hoisted the great sword onto her slender shoulder, ready to give the people outside a proper lesson.

“Don’t worry, Coco.

Those people outside still want to seek my approval to get close to you?

No chance!”

“Wait here.

I’ll be back in no time.”

When Coco heard this, her little face instantly turned red.

Domineering Miss Yiluo, still being domineering for her sake—

She was really cute.

Really cool.

Only…

“Miss Yiluo, it seems like those people outside are here to fight you…”

Coco, realizing Miss Yiluo might have misunderstood something, just raised her head to explain—

Only to find that Miss Yiluo had already gone out…

.

.

“Coco’s bastard master!

Come out here!”

“You actually defiled our pure Coco!”

“We, the Demi-Human Beast-Ear Girls Fan Club, solemnly protest and strongly condemn this!!!”

“Demi-humans will never be slaves!!!”

“If you don’t give everyone an explanation today, don’t even think about studying peacefully at Calde Academy!”

“Give Coco her freedom, and bring peace to the world!”

Led by Chen Yu, Roz, Ruixin, and others, more than three hundred students flooded into the Whispering Dormitory area.

The small courtyard was almost completely filled.

If not for the green-haired dorm supervisor stopping them, it wouldn’t just be shouting and protesting downstairs—they would have already rushed into Dorm 310 to smash Coco’s master’s head in.

The moment Yiluo came out carrying her great sword, she was startled by the crowd outside.

Huh?

Is being a parent really this hard nowadays?

Are pursuers really this arrogant now?

But who was Yiluo?

What kind of big scenes hadn’t she seen before?

With an especially domineering air, she slammed the great sword she was carrying onto the railing.

With a loud bang, a section of the railing in front of Dorm 310 was smashed inward, making the dorm supervisor feel heartbroken just looking at it.

“Which little bastard has designs on my Coco?

Step out!”

At this moment, Yiluo looked like a girl pretending to be a delinquent.

No matter how hard she tried to act tough, because of her appearance and age, she didn’t look intimidating at all—

Instead, she looked even cuter.

With Yiluo’s appearance, the students who had been furious—thinking Coco had suffered inhumane treatment—began to split into two camps.

One group was instantly captured by Yiluo’s cuteness and started persuading others, saying, “This is Coco’s master?!”

“That silver long hair, that slightly full chest—love it, love it.”

“Still youthful, right between a girl and a loli—that’s the true path!

I’m founding a fan club for Coco’s beautiful master.

I despise you people who spread rumors without knowing the truth!”

“Yeah, yeah.

Such a cute lady—how could she possibly bully Coco?

She must treat Coco really well for Coco to support her like this!”

The other group firmly defended Coco and immediately fired back, “Look at that flashy golden great sword in her hand.

At a glance, she’s a spoiled, arrogant rich girl who loves showing off.”

“Exactly.

People like this always have nasty habits.

She probably enjoys abusing servants!”

“Ah!

Our poor Coco, full of resentment but afraid to speak.

We’ll stand up for you!”

“Give justice back to the heavens!”

“I recognize that sword.

It’s the latest campus legend—the Light of Brutality.

They say anyone within ten meters will be brutally knocked down by its owner.

The wielder is the silver-haired demon among the new students!”

Hearing this, the Coco faction was greatly shocked.

Their hostility increased even more.

It seemed the enemy was not only a nouveau-riche noble lady, but even more brutal than imagined—

So brutal she was called a demon.

Yiluo stuck her little head out, completely baffled by the crowd below that was on the verge of fighting itself.

She hadn’t even done anything yet.

Why were they about to start fighting among themselves?

And what was this silver-haired demon nonsense?

After the Witch of Calamity, she’d picked up yet another weird nickname…

“Hey.

Are you fighting or not?

If not, I’m going home.”

Yiluo glared at the students below and said arrogantly.

At this moment, the lion-man Ruixin stepped forward first.

With fury, he shouted up at Yiluo, “I am Ruixin of the Lion Empire!

Such a beautiful cat-folk demi-human must never be enslaved by the human race!”

“Today, I will take Yi Coco away from your side, restore her freedom, and make her the most noble woman of the Lion Empire in the future!”

As he spoke, Ruixin let out a roar like thunder.

The people around him instinctively covered their ears and looked over.

They saw his muscles swell rapidly, his body growing from over two meters tall to more than three meters.

His clothes were completely torn apart.

The martial energy on his body had almost become tangible, faint golden light flowing around him, and his pure golden fur stood on end.

The onlookers were shocked.

“T-this!

Is this the legendary second stage that only the Lion Empire’s royal family can activate?”

“Damn, this is clearly already beyond the Earth Rank.

Even a mid-tier Earth Rank might not be able to beat him.

What a sight today.”

“Sigh, Prince Ruixin is serious today.

Even the silver-haired demon is probably no match for him…”

Ruixin wouldn’t casually activate his strongest second stage against just anyone.

The demi-human race had sharp senses.

He had felt the faint but powerful aura emanating from the girl, which was why he decided to stand up for Coco in his strongest state.

But now that he had activated the second stage—

Hahaha.

No matter how strong the girl was, she would only end up knocked flat!

“Human girl, do you dare to fight—”

Before the words “fight me” could even leave his mouth, he saw the girl expressionlessly leap down from the third floor.

One hand held her nightdress to prevent exposure.

The other slender arm raised that dazzling golden great sword as she descended.

Before he could react, she slammed the great sword directly onto his forehead.

Boom——————

The enormous sound echoed throughout the entire Whispering Dormitory.

Everyone who heard it turned their heads in shock.

“Hahaha…

In my second stage, my body can withstand attacks from Earth Rank warriors…

Just a single sword strike and you think—”

Clang————

Before the laughing Lion Empire royal could finish speaking, his pupils suddenly contracted.

That three-meter-tall body toppled backward and smashed heavily into the ground.

“……”

The onlookers stared at the silver-haired girl.

Her white nightdress fluttered slightly.

She held the sword that was bigger than herself.

Her usually expressionless face slowly curved into a sickly, bewitching smile as she spoke to them.

“So.

Who else just said they wanted to take away our Coco?”
