I'm a monster in Demon King's Castle
#31 - I am a book, not a door.
“Well… Lord Scourgerick… this is the library…” Li Yue searched through his memories, the only place he knew where he could find a bed and a sofa, but it didn’t seem to meet the skeleton’s requirements…
There was a bed in the Sixth Library, a bunk bed, and also a large sofa that could fit three or five corpses.
“So?” Scourgerick didn’t understand what Li Yue meant.
“There… there wouldn’t be any musical instruments in the library…” Li Yue glanced at the Demon Illustrated Handbook, and then remembered that skeleton soldiers were all music lovers, and apparently Scourgerick was the same.
Willing to point a sword at people, likes to dance and play musical instruments… skeletons are really simple.
[Malice +467]
[Determine if it is lying...]
“You’re not going?” Scourgerick’s bony hand gripped the bone sword again.
“No, no, my beloved Lord Scourgerick, I can find a bed and a sofa, but a lute… I don’t even know what it looks like…” Li Yue was walking on thin ice, trying to persuade the skeleton prince.
But Li Yue forgot that skeleton soldiers are very persistent, and so is the prince.
“A lute… looks like this…” Scourgerick drew his bone sword and drew a simple sketch on the wall—the lute in the drawing was very abstract, basically equal to a circle plus a vertical equal sign.
Li Yue racked his brains for a long time, guessing that this thing was like a pipa and a guitar, and seemed to have seen it in some movies in his previous life.
[Malice +1491]
[If you ask one more question, use the holy sword of the Skeleton King to stab it to death...]
Scourgerick stood tall and mighty, holding the bone sword, waiting for Li Yue’s response, and the malice of 1400 was the Skeleton Prince’s murder warning.
“Okay, I’ll go right now!” The 99.84% success rate of predicting his actions made Li Yue yield—Li Yue retreated in a puff of smoke, and flew back to the library lobby, preparing to directly throw the problem to the Book Demon.
“Reporting, Lord Book Demon—” Li Yue rushed into the library lobby and telepathically communicated with the Book Demon, “Lord Scourgerick wants a very soft bed that feels like floating in the air when sleeping, a huge sofa that can separate his bones, and a two-stringed lute with a pear-shaped sound box and sheep gut strings!”
“You get it for him.” The Book Demon replied.
[Malice +72]
Li Yue didn’t expect to gain so much just by running an errand. Does he get annoyed by just asking a question?
“From… where do I get it?” Li Yue only wanted to get to the Sixth Library.
“They are all in the entertainment room and rest room of the war training.” The Book Demon’s answer was cold.
“But the Gate of Chaos… hasn’t been opened yet.”
“Then why are you asking me? I am a book, not a door.”
[Malice +344]
“Then can I ask… MinnieMinie for help?” Li Yue seemed to hear Scourgerick sharpening his sword against the wall, in symphony with the Book Demon’s hardening pages.
“Go ahead, don’t bother me.”
[Malice +72]
The growth curve of malice is like Li Yue’s mood today—Li Yue had to re-evaluate the feasibility of disguising himself as MinnieMinie to join the closed war training, but of course not now…
Now there is still a bed, a sofa, and a lute to find…
“Do you know where there is…” Li Yue floated to MinnieMinie’s side and repeated Scourgerick’s request—this was Li Yue’s last hope. If MinnieMinie didn’t know where to find these things, then the remaining options would be very limited…
Either escape from the library, or stand Scourgerick up—but in that case, it was uncertain whether Scourgerick would go berserk and slaughter the sixty brain spirits in the library…
The turmoil caused by Oogie Boogie yesterday was still vivid in his mind, and Li Yue didn’t want to bet his life on Budibooger’s protective desire for the brain spirits.
Moreover, Li Yue didn’t want to give up the stable situation he had finally achieved in the library, so he could only try his best to make a final attempt.
“Ah? Do you want it now?” MinnieMinie’s service awareness was much stronger than Li Yue’s, and she immediately found the focus of the problem, “These things are all in the war training entertainment room, can’t you wait?”
“No.” Li Yue shook his head.
“The bed and sofa can be taken from the Sixth Library. Four slave scholars died yesterday, so take one of their beds, they shouldn’t mind…” MinnieMinie immediately started discussing, “But the lute… does the skeleton want to dance again? But how could there be a lute in the library?”
Li Yue’s heart turned cold—if Li Yue had a heart.
But next, Li Yue still had to admit that MinnieMinie was his hero.
The two little sweet potatoes rubbed their little heads against each other, and suddenly two pairs of little eyes looked at each other affectionately: “But… can we make one?”
“Yes, yes! I remember what a lute looks like!” MinnieMinie stomped her little feet and grabbed the other’s shoulders, screaming.
Can they make it directly? Li Yue had a new understanding of the little sweet potatoes’ hands-on ability—as expected of a mysterious creature favored by the Demon King’s City, they were simply service-oriented talents, the demon’s intimate little cotton-padded jackets!
“I’ll make the sheep gut strings!”
“I’ll make the pear-shaped sound box…”
The two little guys divided the work and ran wildly to the corner of the hall, took out some files, bone spurs, wooden boards and other tools; but just as they were about to start, they seemed to remember something and ran back to Li Yue.
“Do you want us to help you carry the bed and sofa first?” MinnieMinie looked up and asked Li Yue.
Li Yue was moved for a while: “No need, I’ll find other MinnieMinies to help me carry…”
After saying that, Li Yue called another pair of absent-minded MinnieMinies who were poking their heads and looking around, and followed him to the Sixth Library.
On the way, these MinnieMinies were also very excited—they had been flipping through books for several years, and they were already a little tired of it, and didn’t want to miss any opportunity to do other things.
As soon as they heard that they were going to dismantle the bed and sofa from the Sixth Library, the MinnieMinies stretched out their arms and ran over quickly, like naughty children who were called out by the teacher to carry books during math class.
“A very soft bed that feels like floating in the air when sleeping, a huge sofa that can separate his bones…” After learning about Li Yue’s needs, the MinnieMinies even dismantled two more sets of bedding and wrapped the bed softly, which was very considerate.
As for the strange smell on the bed… Li Yue didn’t think Scourgerick could smell it, and besides, he didn’t mention any other requirements for the bed, so the bunk bed and sofa should meet his needs.
When Li Yue was carrying the bed and sofa upstairs with MinnieMinie, he was also amazed at the little guys’ strength—they stretched out their arms and carried the two big things in the air, as if they were weightless…
They are really good workers… It’s a bit of a waste to use them to take books and flip through them… If they can really make a qin in a short time, does it mean that MinnieMinie has greater potential?
Li Yue was thinking about these things, leading the MinnieMinies carrying the bed and sofa to the entrance of the Thirteenth Library.
The MinnieMinies hid behind the bed and stretched their necks, seemingly wanting to see where the Gate of Chaos was.
“Hmm…” Scourgerick was a little surprised to see the bunk bed.
“Very soft, it feels like floating in the sky when you sleep, please try it, sir…” Li Yue patted the upper bunk with his mind.
Scourgerick deftly climbed up, lay down, and let out a comfortable groan: “Hmm… that’s it…”
[Scatter… want to sleep… ]
Pop! Scourgerick, who had fallen apart, dropped a section of his calf on the ground, and then all the skeletons fell to the ground with a puff, and then floated and landed on the huge sofa, scattered and arranged, forming an elongated “sitting” posture.
[Didn’t touch… not bad]
Scourgerick reorganized on the sofa and stood back into human form.
“Move the sofa next to this wall…” Scourgerick pointed to the opposite of the Gate of Chaos, and then pointed to the entrance of the Thirteenth Library, “Put the bed here.”
MinnieMinie did as he said.
[Malice +444]
“What about the qin? Why is it so slow? Made to order?”
The Skeleton Prince is hard to please, or rather, forgets things in the blink of an eye.
“You’re right, made to order…” Li Yue was also a little uneasy, fearing that the thing MinnieMinie made wouldn’t even make a sound.
[Malice +1444]
[No qin, stab directly, kill them… ]
Scourgerick drew his bone sword, and Li Yue also focused his mind on the “Summon” button of the Demon Illustrated Handbook, like two swordsmen about to duel.
“Danglanglang…” The ethereal sound of the qin rang out at the end of the corridor, like the music of salvation.
