Reincarnated in the Alternate World, I'm A Demonic Lord as Well as a Villager-Chapter 658 - 332: If Shami Were a Birthday Present, I’d Remember It Forever

Chapter 658: Chapter 332: If Shami Were a Birthday Present, I’d Remember It Forever

"Oh..."

The conversation between the men fell silent once again.

Oh, seriously! Ron, what are you even talking about? Don’t be nervous! Just because you’re facing the Demon King doesn’t mean you can’t speak! You’ve lived for over two hundred years as an elf!

Ron looked grim, his hands gradually clenching as he racked his brains for a new topic.

Seeing Ron’s serious expression, Shami also grew tense.

Could it be that something about him displeased this bearded elf? But he’s the founder of such a large demon enterprise, a wealthy man with gold and land, definitely the top choice in the matchmaking market!

Suddenly, Ron seemed to think of something and looked at Shami tentatively.

Since the Demon King is my daughter’s boyfriend, arranging a simple job for him should be easy, right?

"By the way, Shami, I’m a department manager in one of the top five elf race enterprises, and the record of our department staying on the job for three consecutive months is my achievement. See if the demon race needs any personnel."

Shami looked at Ron with a heavy heart, as if he saw himself in Ron’s situation. Just as he was about to speak, Vini walked back with a sinister smile and grabbed the flesh on the back of Ron’s neck.

"Don’t embarrass yourself among the demon race, Ron! Come here, I need to talk to you. – By the way, Lureya, since it’s so late, you must be tired. Hurry up and rest in the room with Shami~"

"Not very tired. I still need to pack up the whole house and take it with me."

The elf maiden said, noticing her mother’s squinting eyes – a prelude to Vini’s upcoming wrath – and quickly pulled Shami back to the room.

Inside the room.

Shami and Lureya finally had time alone.

The elf maiden sat by the bed, swinging her little legs.

Shami’s anger had mostly dissipated by now, and upon learning the purpose of the flat-haired golden retriever’s return to the Elf Forest, his anger turned into reproach.

"Next time you return to the Elf Forest, at least let me know in advance."

The elf maiden looked up at Shami curiously.

"You’re worried about me, aren’t you, Shami."

"Of course. If something happens to you, whether the demon race loses a Demon Envoy or I get hurt due to the Demon Envoy Contract being terminated, it’s not a good situation either."

Shami glanced at the elf maiden.

The elf maiden pouted slightly, dissatisfied.

Couldn’t he just say that it’s because he cares about her that he worries so much...

"By the way."

Shami sat down next to the flat-haired golden retriever, slowly took out a delicately wrapped gift box from the Demon King Ring, and handed it gently to the elf maiden.

"Happy birthday."

The elf maiden stared at the gift box, momentarily stunned.

"Whose birthday is it today?"

"Of course, it’s yours! Are you such a fool that you don’t even know your own birthday?"

The elf maiden suddenly realized.

"Oh, oh, oh! So, today’s the day!"

Shami looked at the elf maiden with an exasperated expression.

"Because the elf race lives so long, birthdays aren’t such a rare occasion. If you have to remember and celebrate each year’s birthday, it’ll become a troublesome affair. Plus, constantly reminding yourself that you’re one year closer to death isn’t great either. Generally, elves celebrate their birthdays once every thirty years." 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

The elf maiden explained, swiftly grabbing the gift box from Shami’s hand.

Celebrating a birthday every thirty years—looking at it from a human perspective is indeed exceedingly long. Hardly anyone can endure until the third celebration.

"Congratulations on being 80 years old this year."

"Let’s not bring up the exact age!"

Seeing Shami trying to tease her with human age concepts again, the elf maiden glared at him.

"An 80-year-old elf is akin to a human high school girl! By the way, how did you know today is my birthday?"

"Bone Frame told me. As the Maid Chief of Demon King Castle, she remembers each Demon Envoy’s birthday."

The elf maiden quickly unwrapped the gift box in her hands.

"Is it still just a book?"

Wondering, the elf maiden had already obtained her birthday gift.

[Outerworld Travel Guide]

"Eh, what’s this?"

"That’s right. This is the Outerworld traversal method I compiled personally for you! It contains over twenty methods I recognize as possibly leading to outerworld travel. If the demon race gets defeated in the future and you’re hunted worldwide, you can try these methods one by one—maybe one of them will let you tear through space-time and take refuge in another world."

The elf maiden frowned tightly.

"Clearly, there are so many ways to avoid the adventure parties, Shami, and you choose the least reliable thing for me!"

Though her expression showed disdain, this handmade gift touched the elf maiden’s heart. She stored the small manual into her ring.

"But Shami, you’re lacking ambition, aren’t you? Already envisioning such a grim future?"

The elf maiden looked at Shami with a hint of discontent.

Shami didn’t respond to the elf maiden’s remark, but after a pause, he changed the subject.

"Lureya, report on the Underground City progress."

The elf maiden reacted with shock.

"Playing dumb won’t work!"

After Shami and Lureya entered the room, Vini and Ron started their private conversation.

Ron was utterly delighted, already lost in his fantasy.

"Vini~ I never imagined I’d have a day where I could be connected to the Demon King. Soon enough, Shami and I will be the two most influential people on the entire continent."

"Don’t get too complacent, Ron," Vini frowned, roughly relaying her chat with Lureya earlier: "Lureya and Shami are still maintaining a pure relationship."
