Decisively using her status as a younger sister to forcefully drive away Melanie, who still wanted to linger here, Kira turned off the lights, locked the door, and turned to look at her sister.
"Hmm? Why are you looking at me?" Leticia scratched her head in confusion. "Is there something wrong with my face?"
Kira shook her head.
"Is my hair messy?"
She shook her head again.
"Do you want to give your sister a goodnight kiss?"
A soft, pink little fist slammed onto Leticia's head.
"Kira, why did you hit me?" Leticia asked, clutching her head, looking quite aggrieved.
What did she do? Why was she getting hit?
Kira sighed and burrowed into the quilt, which had been warmed by her sister's body heat. "I just feel like you're different from before, Sister."
"Ah, different? How am I different?" Leticia asked curiously.
"Nothing, it's just an illusion." Kira hugged Leticia's arm and yawned. "Let's sleep, Sister."
"Are you very tired?" Leticia glanced at the clock; it was clearly only 9:30, which, for a seasoned night owl like Leticia, was no different from broad daylight.
Kira's usual bedtime was after ten, around eleven o'clock. A situation like today only happened when Kira was very tired.
"Yeah, there have been a lot of things lately." Kira nudged a few times in Leticia's arms and said in a slurred voice.
Handling these matters consumed a great deal of her energy, which was the reason she was so exhausted.
"Is that so? How about I handle those matters tomorrow, and you just take a good rest for the day, Kira?"
"Those matters were supposed to be handled by you, Sister." Kira's hand reached into Leticia's clothes and gave her waist a light pinch.
Leticia let out a soft cry, not because of pain—Kira had used very little force; rather than a pinch, it was more like a tickle.
But Leticia's waist was absolutely off-limits; it could almost be said to be one of the most sensitive parts of her entire body.
Being tickled like that by Kira, Leticia's face turned red all of a sudden.
With a touch of feigned anger, she punched her sister lightly and whispered, "Hurry up and rest, stop fidgeting."
"Hehehe."
Holding her sweet, soft sister, Leticia didn't feel sleepy at all; her bedtime hadn't arrived yet.
Kira in her arms was already fast asleep. Leticia carefully pushed aside the strands of hair on her sister's face, examining her face in the darkness.
Kira had grown into a very beautiful young woman. In a few more years, she was afraid that she wouldn't be as attractive as Kira, right?
Unlike Leticia, although Kira's development progress was a bit slow, she was still growing. In the foreseeable future, Kira would likely blossom into a very beautiful young girl. If they walked together, Leticia estimated that she would be mistaken for the younger sister.
Of course, no matter how well Kira developed, she couldn't catch up to the level of Candice. Leticia estimated that her sister would at most develop to the level of Melanie.
It was a genetic issue; the girls of the Demon King family were all like this.
Leticia could be considered to have a medium build in this Demon King family; in the past, there were quite a few Demon Kings who were even less developed than Leticia.
She could probably be considered a slightly expired loli. If you called her a loli, she was a bit of one, but she was a size larger than the average loli.
And some Demon Kings, according to the portraits passed down, were truly lolis; some even leaned towards the 'toddler' stage.
Who knows why the dignified Demon King bloodline would end up like this? There was absolutely no sense of oppression.
Leticia simply couldn't imagine that those monarchs in the history books of the Demon Race, who were brilliant and talented and led the Demon Race to expand the Demon World, were actually one petite, cute, black-haired loli after another.
It was strange, really strange.
"Haa, I'll accompany you to rest early today." Leticia closed her eyes; sleeping early could never be a bad thing.
That was what she thought, but when she opened her eyes at five o'clock and found that she couldn't fall back asleep no matter what, Leticia was stunned.
So, did her sleeping early lead to waking up so early the next day?
Looking at the gray sky outside the window, Leticia didn't quite know what she should do now.
Releasing Kira from her arms, Leticia tiptoed out of bed, opened the bedroom door, and walked out.
"Your Majesty?" Luna, who was already cleaning in the living room, raised her head in confusion. Waking up so early didn't seem like Her Majesty's style. "Do you need to use the restroom?"
"I went to sleep too early last night, and now I've woken up and can't fall back asleep." Leticia didn't deny Luna's guess; after all, she did need to go to the restroom to take care of her physiological needs.
"Alright, what would Your Majesty like for breakfast today?"
