Picked up a Demon King to be a Maid

Once again, Lin Xiao deceived everyone with his story.

His trick was to not straight out confess everything, but also not completely fabricate everything either.
He didn’t cover up the truth with falsehoods, instead, he put a certain spin onto what had actually happened.

Did he lie? No, Yao Zi did indeed have the Wizard’s bloodline.
This came from Elena so it was a sure thing, even the Demon King herself ascertained it so how could it be false?

Not just that, but Woos was a knowledgeable grand magician, so he obviously made his own judgment as well.
The fact that the magic power was completely drained and the strong monsters were blown to bits provided sufficient proof of the existence of the Wizard’s bloodline, so Woos finally believed Lin Xiao.

But was everything Lin Xiao said the truth? Not really.

It’s true that Yao Zi possessed the Wizard’s bloodline, but defeating the Lesser Devils was false.

Yao Zi only finished off the three Lesser Devils that fell behind, but the magic explosions outside the remains wasn’t her work, it was the traces left behind by Lin Xiao.

So, Lin Xiao used a half true story to successfully lower his presence and pushed the useless deed of ‘being the hero that defeated the Lesser Devils’ onto Yao Zi to avoid needless inconvenience.

The only thing was that all their points was taken by that stinking brat, and Loran Academy’s crystal already shattered.

But speaking of that, can they really choose a winner this time around?

Not necessarily, in his opinion.

Prince Charles encountering an assassin, the Silver Vault becoming Anderson’s experimentation grounds with terrifying monsters suddenly interrupting the competition.
This might even lead to a strife between Heino Kingdom and the Holy Light Church, if this fuse was lit between these two sides, then who knows what will happen.

Of course, Lin Xiao cared about none of that.
For him, he would want to avoid wars as much as possible, especially power struggles.
He just wanted an ordinary life.

He didn’t want to become famous, he didn’t want to go on adventures and take risks, he just wanted to peacefully live his life.

“Phew, I can’t believe that I would have the fortune to see someone with the Wizard’s bloodline before I died.
Bamboo Academy huh….
I really underestimated them.”

Woos sighed, either lamenting the excellence of the youth or depressed at his deteriorating age.

After clarifying everything, Woos didn’t bother Lin Xiao anymore and ordered someone to take them out of the cave and head back for treatment.

Before they left, Lin Xiao suddenly strongly resisted.

“You brat, what are you trying to do? Do you think you’re made of steel? Look at how weak you look! You’re still young, so you can’t wreck your body, if you’re already wasted now, how are you going to satisfy your maid? She’ll dislike you when you’re older!” Woos stroked his beard and seriously lectured him.

Lin Xiao never would have imagined those words coming out of someone as stiff as Woos.
Hearing it made Lin Xiao’s scalp tingle, Elena was in an even worse state and shrank behind Lin Xiao, clenching her teeth.

It wasn’t really Woos’s fault for thinking like that, since this master-servant pair’s appearance caused too many misunderstandings.

The usual impression Elena gave off was elegant, like an ice-cold goddess, but now, she was actually shrinking behind Lin Xiao all cute and helpless.
Even though her expression was still cold, her evasive gaze and flushed cheeks turned her into a clingy maid.

Not only that, what really gave Woos the wrong idea was what they were wearing.

Now, Lin Xiao only had a thin shirt on and Elena wasn’t wearing her original beautiful maid outfit and was covered with Lin Xiao’s jacket.

Furthermore, Elena’s thin bra was also very low, it was clear she was trying to seduce Lin Xiao.

So, whether they were doing something or not before everyone came, it was too embarrassing for Woos to say, so he just touched on it and left it, as long as everyone knew.

“Uh… y-you’re mistaken.” Lin Xiao quickly saw through what Woos was thinking, but it wasn’t easy to refute so he quickly got back to topic, “Teacher Woos, before going back, I still have to go back to find someone.”

“Find someone? Who?”

“Shen DaiYing.”

After saying that, Lin Xiao’s voice quivered slightly.
His heart ached, but he didn’t show it and continued to pretend to be relaxed.

But Elena who was holding his arm could feel his inner struggle.

“Oh! Right, now that you mention it, why isn’t she with you guys?”

“Because…”

Faced with that question, Lin Xiao scratched his head, and said that they were attacked by another team when they left and accidentally got separated so they had to find her.

Searching for Shen DaiYing was important, so Woos immediately formed a search and rescue team.
But Lin Xiao and Elena acted independently and sneaked away while everyone was getting prepared.

Although it took a while, but Lin Xiao believed that Shen DaiYing was still waiting for him there!

So he had to quickly get back!

The sky was turning dark, and after a while, Woos noticed that it wasn’t just Shen DaiYing, but Lin Xiao also went missing, So he could only get some soldiers to take the injured back and then continue searching for the others within the forest.

On the other side, Lin Xiao was quickly stumbling along in the forest.

Following the way he came from, Lin Xiao dragged his feet along.

In the beginning, he didn’t want Elena to support him and wanted to rely on his own two legs, but he was too weak.
If he wanted to reach Shen DaiYing, he would have to walk… no, crawl until morning before he arrived.
And Elena couldn’t leave him because of the contract, so she could only reluctantly act as his crutches.

It was getting darker and darker, the towering trees made it difficult to determine one’s direction, but Lin Xiao still persistently followed the path based on his memory and pushed through.

His eyelids were drooping and his pace was slowing, he almost reached his limits.

Even if Lin Xiao was talented in magic, but he was still a human and didn’t have Elena’s strong recovery capabilities.
He was already exhausted after the multiple fights, the only thing keeping him going was his strong will and perseverance.

He could hear the distant noises of shouts and could tell it was probably the Crucifix Guards that Snow invited assembling.

With their strength they should have no problems purging the remaining Lesser Devils and protecting the students.
So the only thing Lin Xiao had to worry about was his beloved, his future wife and the woman he abandoned.

Shen DaiYing.

Then, thud.

As Lin Xiao walked, he stumbled over a thick tree root and Elena didn’t react in time and catch him, so he fell flat on his face.

“Hey! You…”

Elena wanted to apologize, but Lin Xiao’s reaction completely erased that thought.

“Elena, you bastard! What kind of maid are you? Can’t you even support me properly?”

Lin Xiao spat out some mud while complaining, as he comically squirmed around like a turtle that couldn’t flip over and couldn’t stand up no matter how it tried.

“Idiot.”

Elena cussed with dissatisfaction as she looked down on him with crossed arms.
She didn’t extend a helping hand, but rather ridiculed him.

“So Lin Xiao, you shouldn’t have come to me in the first place, now serves you right that you look like a turtle! … I have no sympathy for you!”

“Hmph, who needs your sympathy? Don’t flatter yourself!”

Seeing Elena just stand by idly and not help, a fire swelled within him and all the atmosphere they had vanished into thin air.

This was their normal state.

“Hurry up and help me up! If anything happens to her, then I’ll, I’ll…”

Thud.

Lin Xiao cursed and struggled, just as he got his upper body up and wanted to sit up, his arms weakened and he ate another mouthful of mud.

“Pervert, a toad trying to eat the flesh of a swan.” Seeing Lin Xiao’s pathetic struggling, she wanted to give him a hand, but she had second thoughts and continued ridiculing him, “Lin Xiao, do you think she actually cares about you? What a joke, do you think she’ll give herself to you just because you saved her? Don’t be foolish, she’s a princess, and you’re a useless commoner.
Think about it, if you didn’t attend Loran Academy, you wouldn’t even have gotten the chance to speak with her!”

“S-so what?”

“So what? Heh, Lin Xiao, do you think you’ve already won over her heart? Even if you find her, what will that change? When you abandoned her for me, you already became the number one scumbag to her!”

Elena’s long list rendered Lin Xiao speechless, but even Elena herself didn’t notice that when she said ‘when you abandoned her for me’ she flinched like she had a guilty conscience.

If Lin Xiao was a scumbag, who was it because of?

“No! Elena, I-I’m not!”

It’s one of the rare times that his sore spot was touched on and he didn’t know how to respond.
He stopped struggling and just laid there silently becoming a turtle that couldn’t turn over.

“Sigh, it’s already so late, she probably already left.” Elena sighed and couldn’t continue hitting him while he’s down, so she earnestly tried to persuade him, “Lin Xiao, that woman’s just like you, adept at pretense.
She’s a noble princess on the outside but a killer underneath.
That kind of crafty and capricious woman would never wait for you, I’d advise you to give up.”

“Hehe, who says that I wouldn’t wait for him?”

As she was speaking, Elena suddenly heard a familiar voice from behind.
When she turned to look, she saw a slender legged beauty.

“I may be fickle, but I’m not an ungrateful bad woman.
I’m extremely thankful for him.”
