Picked up a Demon King to be a Maid

uld be able to find a way really easily.

But now…

“Hmph, I just don’t believe that I can even deal with unorthodox black magic without that little girl!?” For some reason, Lin Xiao was angered by someone that wasn’t even there.

Wasn’t Snow just a little brat, what’s so great about her? Lin Xiao didn’t believe it, when Snow first left him behind and called him trash, that he really became trash and wasn’t able to do anything!

Today, he was going to prove himself for Snow to see!

Snow couldn’t see though… in various senses of the word.

“Elena, I have a plan!”

“What is it?”

“I need you to listen to all of my directions, it might be a little troublesome… but, I hope that you can cooperate with me.”

“No problem!”

In order to save her thirteenth aunt, a little trouble was nothing to her.

“Good… if I’m not wrong, she’s probably affected by the branch of black magic that affects the mind.
It’ll affect their mental state and recognition, so that’s why she kept on attacking us like crazy.”

“Un.” Elena nodded and remembered everything Lin Xiao was saying.

“I don’t know how it’s cast, but I vaguely remember that people who are affected by mental magic have a specific magic circle left on them that can continue to mess with their mental state and suck their magic power to maintain it… since your aunt doesn’t have magic power, then it’ll take her vitality.
So those wounds she has been probably left behind from having her vitality drained.”

“What a vicious magic…” Elena clenched her fist and cursed the one who made her aunt like this, “So Lin Xiao, are you saying that we just have to find the circle and destroy it?”

“That’s the idea… but the key lies in how to destroy it.”

“How else, can’t we just break it?” Elena naively asked, “Since you have so much magic power, can’t you just directly use it to get rid of it?”

“Cough… that’s easy to say.” Lin Xiao almost choked on her ignorance.

Even if he didn’t know how to get rid of it, there were two basic principles that he knew…

First, that crucial circle is definitely hidden in a concealed place so that it isn’t easily destroyed.

Second, if someone who doesn’t know black magic rashly destroyed the circle with external forces, then the victim would definitely receive severe mental trauma.
They would go crazy in less severe cases, and in more severe cases they would lose their memory and become the living dead with no soul.

“Anyways, we have to find the circle first and then find a way to break it.”

“Okay, I’ll listen to you… so, how do we find it?”

“With your perception skill.”

It would be too difficult for Lin Xiao to find it, especially since Adele couldn’t hold on for much longer, so he had to use Elena’s power.

He quickly told Elena about the plan, even if he got a strange look, Lin Xiao had no choice but to use the dumbest and most brute force method.

Elena silently nodded after she heard the plan, and thus the ‘dumb’ plan started!

First, he had to make Adele settle down.

“Judgment light… change!”

A large amount of magic power was channeled into the barrier, all the chains shook and let out a sharp buzzing and dispersed the corrosion leaving clouds of black mist in the air.

The thirteen humanoid shadows pulled the chains they were holding tight, not giving the enemy a single inch!

“Elena!”

“Yep!”

With just a single glance and a call out, Elena immediately understood as she ran towards Adele.

When Lin Xiao saw her get into position, he took a deep breath and concentrated.
He bit open his finger and smeared his blood over the back of his right hand.

The invisible and large amount of magic power quickly flowed and filled the entire cave.

Lin Xiao didn’t hide it anymore and brought out his skills.

“Multicast… chain lightning arrows!”

Multiple milky white circles appeared in midair and folded on top of one another like the vast milky way.

“Fifth-level magic chain lightning? It’s not too strong but has a paralysis effect, along with multicast… that’s probably the best way to deal with the current situation!”

Elena understood that the lightning arrows will fall in a moment and with Lin Xiao’s precise control, it will nail her down to the floor so that she couldn’t move.

It was up to her now…

Elena took two steps forward and stood next to Adele.
She ignored the lightning arrows above her and slowly closed her eyes.

They will soon get the answer to whether Lin Xiao’s dumb idea works or not.
