Picked up a Demon King to be a Maid Chapter 198

“Impossible, impossible! What kind of joke is that! How was a trap that the five of us set not able to render her unconscious?”

The shocked Victor turned to look at the other two teachers and saw the same reaction.

That woman ate it head-on and was still standing, she could even endure the pain and control her breathing. Even a seventh level warrior wouldn't have such frightening fortitude, and her strength wasn't even at a seventh level, so how could she withstand it?

Are you saying that she was able to endure the bone eroding pain simply with sheer willpower? Unless you went through special training, it wouldn't make a difference no matter how strong your mental fortitude was!

That woman, who in the world is she?

“Devoru!”

“Your highness!” Devoru and the other two teammates responded to his call and quickly ran next to him, nervously asking, “Do you need us help?”

“No, you're responsible for protecting me, leave the apprehension to the teachers. But…”

It was so unexpected that everyone, including Charles, fell into a state of shock, everyone expected the assassin to already be unconscious, but she was still holding on, so they didn't know how to handle it.

“Puh…”

She spat out another mouthful of blood as her pain gradually subsided, and she finally relaxed a bit.

Because of the intense electric current, her skin was raw and bloody, the good news was that since she practiced Moonlight soul flower, the energy in her body was extremely pure, she might be slightly weaker against physical damages, but stronger against electric current and magic damage, so she could still just barely hold on.

That way, as long as she regulated her breathing, and could freely move her limbs, then she could continue fighting no matter how serious her injuries were!

“Huu… huu…”

When she was in the Flower Burial state, her body was like a precise machine, as long as her core was working smoothly, it wasn't a big deal if the other parts were slightly damaged.

As for the pain…

What a joke, they don't even know what kind of cruel training she's received since a young age. They wanted to render her unconscious with pain? They would have to do a lot more than a mere electric current.

“Can you hear me? What's your name?” Charles began his questioning after seeing her move.

“…”

Shen DaiYing didn't respond and instead tidied her dishevelled long hair.

Because of the electric current, her dishevelled hair was like that from an angry kitten. Not only did it look ugly, it also hindered movement, so she could only tie it up.

“You've already failed, and there's no way you can escape, the only thing waiting for you is death… if you're willing to cooperate with us, I can let you live.”

Charles tried to induce her surrender while looking at the five teachers. They understood and began surrounding her and prepared for the next magic attack.

But Shen DaiYing still remained silent.

“Are you still not willing to give up?” Charles frowned.

If possible, he really didn't want to kill her, he was affected by her indomitable spirit. As long as she was willing to cooperate and tell him who's behind it, he could spare her.

Of course, that was if he already completely controlled the situation.

“Give up?” Shen DaiYing stared at Charles with her empty eyes.

“I know that you people from Shen Yue Ge always commit suicide and destroy the corpses to not leave any evidence… but, why?” Charles patiently tried to reassure her, “You must be worried that you'll be eliminated after selling out your organization, right… don't worry, I already have arrangements.”

“Arrangements?”

“That's right, a perfect arrangement.” Seeing her interest, he thought that she had taken the bait and explained, “As long as you're willing to cooperate with me, not only will I let you go, I'll also arrange the rest of your life… I'll give you a large amount of money, enough to live in comfort for the rest of your life. You can choose to stay in Heino Kingdom and serve me, or you could choose to go somewhere else, I wont stop you. As for Shen Yue Ge…. the assassin failed and was killed there and then taken by Charles's subordinates. The reason was because the plan was leaked, so perhaps Shen Yue Ge has other moles… how about it, does that sound appropriate?”

“A good plan…” An unexpected sarcastic smile appeared on her indifferent face.

Charles, this guy, he even included her in her schemes! These pacifying words were indeed tempting, it promised her a beautiful future, money and freedom. It also helped her take care of the organization and sowed discord among them, so that she could wash herself and start her life afresh.

He even mentioned to let her serve him as a peace offering, if it was a regular assassin, they would have already given up, right?

“Hehe, how about it? I will definitely deliver on my promise, we're in a collaborative relationship, you can trust me. It's a win-win situation, and you can live, who wants to die, am I right? So cooperate with me. You still look young and beautiful, don't you have a man that you want to entrust the rest of your life to?”

“What did you say?”

A man to entrust the rest of her life to?

Did she have one?

Maybe, but she had already rejected that kind of opportunity, twice…

“For a woman, rather than risking your life as an assassin, wouldn't you much rather spend your life peacefully with your lover… get married, have kids, and live out the rest of your lives together. Wouldn't that be bliss?” Charles slightly smiled and extended his hand towards Shen DaiYing, “I can give you that chance, as long as you agree to cooperate with me.”

“…”

Shen DaiYing didn't move, like she was contemplating his suggestion.

“Don't worry, I will definitely keep my promise, I'm not going to lie to a woman that's about to die.” Charles looked at the teachers again, signalling them to not act rashly, “As long as you let go of that sword, then I'll take it you're in agreement.”

“Sword…”

After regulating her breath, she could finally stand up. She lowered her head and gazed longingly at the sword she was holding on to.

Living her life peacefully with her lover… she's had that dream countless times before.

Finding a man that would cherish her, a man worthy of entrusting the rest of her life to, then giving her everything to him and becoming his wife, spending the rest of their lives together… how nice would that be.

Even if that man would one day get sick of her, it didn't matter, she was willing to change, to become whatever he liked and regain his love.

Even if he cheats one day, it didn't matter, she was willing to continue to be a competent wife, taking care of her husband and kids, making the meals, she was willing to do anything… but, the only thing she was lacking was a man like that.

Who would it be? Caesar, or Lin Xiao?

With Caesar's temper, if he knew of her past, he would righteously take her to the gallows himself. And he didn't even like her, even if she married him, she was convinced that he wouldn't even touch her.

Then, Lin Xiao?

No, that womanizer was unworthy!

Not only does he have a loving maid by his side, it seems he also has some unspeakable secrets with that loli Saintess… In his eyes, she was probably just another outlet for his desires.

“Huuu…”

Thinking of Lin Xiao, Shen DaiYing took a deep breath and closed her eyes.

How laughable, she didn't even do anything, just talked with him a bit and used her fake smile to deal with him and he just fell in love with her. What a cheap man.

Wasn't he just interested because of his lower half?

Didn't he just obtain some comfort for his empty soul from her?

Doesn't he just like her slender legs and her flirty charming appearance?

How dare he say love at first sight…

What face did he have to say that he wanted to be her companion and get her to ask him for help…

In actuality, didn't he just want to fuck her, and bed her?

Did he think she couldn't tell?

Ridiculous, how laughable!

“Huu… huu…” Her breathing was becoming chaotic again.

She grasped Snow with both hands and pulled it out from the ground.

Everyone braced themselves and thought she wanted to fight to the death,. Devoru stood in front of Charles to use his body to shield him.

But what they were expecting didn't happen.

Charles curiously grabbed onto Devoru's shoulder and tiptoed looking over. What he saw next made him unconsciously smile.

Clang…

Shen DaiYing threw her sword behind her!

“I take it you're are willing to cooperate, very good.” Charles nodded with satisfaction.

“Cooperate? Hmph.”

Shen DaiYing coldly snorted.

If she still had any feelings, it would be of rage.

Lin Xiao was just like the rest of those stinking men, all liars!

She regretted the expectations she may have had, even just a tiny wave was wrong, her state of mind should never be disturbed by someone like that!

“Perhaps I may have misjudged you, if that's really the case, then show me.”

Shen DaiYing grabbed her jacket and threw it aside.

The light clothes gently floated down, landing next to the beautiful sword.

Without that, all that was left was a flimsy white shirt, that was also tattered because of the fight. The rips revealed her delicate skin, the blood stains made her appear even more poignant.

“If I can survive to see you again…”

She didn't stop after taking off her jacket.

Next was her silk stockings.

The already ripped silken stocking was easily torn off with one hand, exposing her sexy long legs. The mud and blood on her legs added a hint of sadness to her beauty.

Afterwards, she finally pulled out the short sword she kept hidden behind her.

The one she's never revealed publicly.

Soul Slayer.
