Picked up a Demon King to be a Maid Chapter 316

Published at 13th of October 2021 01:26:59 PM

Elena felt she was the most odd demon king ever, she was actually buried alive. Thankfully she was the only one who knew about this embarrassing matter, if it got out, she would be a laughingstock with those old families from the tribes.

Of course, she didn't have the luxury of worrying about face and dignity, she was already content that she was alive.

“Peh, peh, peh.”

The good thing was that the only thing that fell on her was dirt and not rocks, so she was only buried under a thin layer of dirt. She succeeded in climbing out after struggling around and spat the bitter dirt out as she looked around her.

When she took a look, it was like another lifetime.

Just by being buried for a while, the surrounding scenery had already completely changed, to the point where Elena could believe that she came to an entirely different world.

How was this the forest in the outskirts of Winterless City? It was even more terrifying than the sulfur dead lands in the Forest of the End.

The green trees, the blue sky, bother had vanished. What had replaced them was a sky filled with grey smoke and charred and fragile trees that would crumble to ash just with a slight breeze. It was a scene of ruin for as far as the eye could see, all living things burnt to ash, the ground pitch-black, it was day yet the sunlight didn't shine inside, the deadly stillness spread silently.

Was this the power of eighth-level magic?

Elena raised her head and finally saw that weak youth gasping for air and the expressionless girl next to him.

She never expected that Lin Xiao was able to use a never seen before method to complete the complex magic circle and regain control over the rampaging element and magic power when he was already about to die.

He is always full of surprises… when others think he's at his limit, that's precisely when he starts to put in effort and easily break through that so-called limit.

You could call Lin Xiao lazy, but calling him a good-for-nothing was inappropriate. Rather, he should be called a lazy super genius…

Well, all's well that ends well.

Lin Xiao overcame the difficulties and avoided his tragic fate. Elena didn't need to worry about him and risk her own life to save him from danger, but…

Its reasonable to say that Lin Xiao accomplished a miracle that was unachievable for normal people, even Elena had to acknowledge his strength and should be happy that he survived and feel happy for his improvements, but now, Elena couldn't feel happy at all.

ELena felt unexpectedly dejected as she watched his figure and a bitterness leaked through her slight smile.

“Lin Xiao, have you already come so far…” She quietly muttered.

Elena suddenly recalled when she first met Lin Xiao…

At that time, even if Elena didn't fully transform, just a light swipe from her was enough to scare him shitless, powerless to fight back.

At that time, she was proud and arrogant, the invincible demon king who relied on her absolute power to deliberately harm Lin Xiao. She wouldn't yield and bow down even with the slave contract, but now…

But now, not only did she become an obedient maid, her mindset also completely changed like she was another person. More importantly, not just her mindset, but her prided arrogance and absolute strength didn't exist anymore…

Lin Xiao who once could only rely on the slave contract to restrain her could now cast eighth-level magic unassisted! Even if Elena changed back to her true form and regained her power as the demon king, she wouldn't be able to simply kill him with one swipe of her paws.

She didn't know from when it happened, but that youth already possess enough power to stand shoulder to shoulder with her, perhaps he would even surpass her one day.

If she had to make a comparison, Lin Xiao was like a vine that wrapped tightly around her body, immobilizing her and couldn't be ripped off. But now, Lin Xiao already grew to a large tree, no longer immobilizing her, giving her enough freedom, but instead she couldn't leave, she couldn't leave from the tree's shade and could only look up and admire him.

Now, she wasn't a monarch that struck fear into him anymore, but an equal, or even a maid that he could look down on. When she thought about that, Elena couldn't help but feel dejected.

Previously, she had held only disdain for Lin Xiao, but now she realized that he has the power to help her complete her mission, he had the qualifications to be her master, that he could actually protect her forever and it was hard for her to adapt to that fact.

Elena was at a loss and made her unsure of her standing, she didn't even know whether she should be happy or sad.

…

Lin Xiao was very strong, so she could rely on him from now on, to get him to fight with her enemies. She just had to silently stay close to him, take care of him, serve him, and then watch him effortlessly finish off the enemies one after another.

That was something ELena should be happy about.

But at the same time…

Lin Xiao was very strong, so it was hard for her to resist him already, from accepting his protection, she would become more and more powerless, more timid, until finally becoming his favorite maid, and handing her body and soul over for the rest of her life.

That was something Elena should be sad about.

…

However, there was a better way of putting it… why did being a maid for Lin Xiao have to be sad? If Elena wanted that from the bottom of her heart, a dream come true, wouldn't that be happiness?

Happiness?

Hmph, if she actually thought like that one day, then I'm afraid she really would have fallen to become a genuine maid and Lin Xiao can finally be happy for the results of his training.

Elena would never allow something like that to happen!

“Elena… cough… are you okay?”

While she was thinking, she suddenly heard someone calling her, it was that youth using his weak voice to call her name.

“I won't die, I'm tougher than you.”

Elena coldly snorted and put a front on, but still struggled to move her feet and slowly walked towards him.

“Hehe, Elena, can't you just be a tad more polite when speaking?”

Although Lin Xiao complained, he was pleased and silently waited for Elena to walk next to him and help him up before foolishly laughing.

“What the hell are you laughing at? You're still laughing when you almost died?”

“Hehe, but I succeeded, I actually understood deconstruction… have you heard of it?”

“No, is it something you invented while sleeping?”

“Uh, although I'm a genius, but I still can't do something like study while asleep, unless someone invents some super amazing VR equipment that can read brain waves.”

“VR? … Brain waves?” Elena stopped then had a serious expression as she held out two fingers in front of this while nervously asking, “Lin Xiao, how much is this?”

“Two.”

“What's my name?”

“Elena.”

“Then, who am I?”

“Uh… you're the best maid in the world, my favorite ***!”

“Peh!”

“Am I wrong?”

“Hmph, I thought you went crazy, speaking words that I couldn't understand. Seems like you're not, and still the usual pervert.” Elena shook her head and sighed.

“Ohh, it looked like you're worried about me.”

“No, I don't care whether you live or die, I'm just worried that if you go insane and I have to take care of you for the rest of your life. I don't want to be a maid for a crazy person for the rest of my life.”

“Hm?” Lin Xiao carefully thought over what she said, “So you're saying that if I wasn't crazy, then you're willing to be my maid for the rest of your life?”

“…”

Elena blinked and realized her slip of the tongue. Her face flushed red but she couldn't find any words to retort, so she could only resort to violence to hide her embarrassment!

“Pervert! I…”

“Hey! W-what are you doing? Don't, I'm still weak, I can't take… ahh!”

Lin Xiao felt a sharp pain from his waist as his sensitive soft flabby fat was grabbed onto with Elena's nails, the pain was almost enough to make him cry.

He looked down at that annoying, violent and cold maid and laughed, although his body hurt, he felt strangely comfortable.

Earlier, he saw everything Elena did for him, her arm being shredded by the magic power over and over. That brutal process was burned into his mind and it was also the first time he personally saw Elena go crazy over worry for him. The impactful scene made him unable to rebuke her.

Compared to that, this much pain was nothing.

When Lin Xiao thought about that, the way he looked at Elena changed, she instantly become the most beautiful goddess in the world!
