Picked up a Demon King to be a Maid

Chapter 136: Demonic Sister

Chapter 136: Demonic Sister

Lin Xiao didnt know whether Elena actually like him or not, neither did he know what kind of feelings Elena actually possessed.

As the master, was he reluctant to let go of this beautiful maid? Or was it as a man, he was seduced by Elenas alluring body?

He didnt know the answer, but he did know that at this very moment, he just wished that she would treat him a bit better and not always carry that stiff face around. He would be very satisfied if she could be occasionally more gentle like Shen DaiYing, or more proactive like Snow.

Of course, those were all Lin Xiaos delusions, perhaps the only gentleness Elena has for him is sparing his life.

As of now, even without the slave contract, Elena couldnt kill him. Every time she swung the cleaver, she missed for some reason, every chop carried her humiliation and was quite scary, but it had no killing intent.

A blade without killing intent cannot kill anyone.

She, a cruel kitty, who once massacred a village because of what someone said, now couldnt even hack someone to death. Perhaps Snow could see it the most clearly as an outsider, but that guy was special.

Their tomfoolery with the cleaver didnt last long, after Snow left, the two quickly returned to their daily lives.

Yet, Lin Xiao couldnt relax.

After getting runner-up, that meant he had to represent Loran Academy in the Academy Tournament.

For him, this competition was significant.

The Academy Tournament bore the hopes of all the youths across the Eileen continent. The famous academies from the four great kingdoms will send out their own teams, shouldering their own reputation and honor, and defeating one another until the strongest is determined.

This was a key step in becoming a hero, and for Lin Xiao, this was also the best opportunity to become a reserve hero.

Thats because the winning team will receive an award personally promulgated by the current hero, the Alliance Investigator exclusive badge!

Dont think that an investigator is just a detective thats responsible for catching thieves. In Eileen, the alliance investigator is an extremely high position, they did not belong to any single country and they were under the Four Kingdoms Assembly. In emergency situations, they had the power to override anyone else, as long as they made a reasonable report later on.

What? Do you think theyre lawless bigwigs and dogs of aristocrats? No.

They are humanitys hope!

Previously, the current hero represented Loran Academy and obtained the identity of an alliance investigator. After graduation, he joined the four kingdom alliance, went through hell and back, completing one arduous mission after another, before eventually becoming the strongest, acknowledged by the alliance and voted into the number one spot on the hero candidacy list.

Afterwards, he pulled out the holy sword that was the symbol of justice and hope and finally became a hero.

He, is humanitys beacon.

Though Lin Xiao doesnt have a favorable impression of him, he only treated him as an extreme idealistic fool. But as for the identity of the alliance investigator, he thirsted for it.

What was the name of the current reserve hero again?

Although he specifically looked it up before, he forgot by accident. But anyways, to become a reserve hero, the alliance investigator position was equally important.

Not only for his dream, but for a better life. If he becomes an alliance investigator he will also receive a regular wage, and will be well received all over the continent. He could instantly go from a good-for-nothing to a well-respected good-for-nothing.

Lin Xiao began daydreaming, perhaps the alliance can even solve his life problems, and give him a beautiful girlfriend no, no, no, Lin Xiao quickly stopped his delusions. He already had someone he liked, how could he hope for another girlfriend. Even though the princess he likes already rejected him twice, and is also a coldblooded killer

Well, he will take it one step at a time, these kinds of things cant be rushed.

Recently, Shen DaiYing has been quite low-key, other than occasionally going with Caesar to Rosies house for meals, and fully experiencing the awkward love-triangle relationship, she pretty much stayed home all day, or went shopping with her subordinates.

Correspondingly, no other assassinations happened in Winterless City. In everyones mind, the series of homicide cases remain a mystery and the culprit is still at large. But it has slowly begun to fade from the peoples minds and become a topic for idle gossip.

Only Lin Xiao knew the truth.

Although she stopped her assassinations for the time being, it didnt mean that she wont act again. From what it looks like right now, it doesnt seemlike Lin Xiao can become Shen DaiYings hero.

He wished that he could stop Shen DaiYings next assassination. In order to do that, he needed a lot of information.

Before the academy tournament, Lin Xiao took advantage of the vacation and often met with Rosie to discuss, after all, they were still allies.

He made up random reasons, arose Rosies interest then got her to investigate. But no matter how she got her brothers to investigate, they still had no way of finding even a single clue linking Shen DaiYing with the assassinations.

But who does Shen DaiYing still need to kill? Or is she not planning to kill anymore and has another mission?

Without knowing the answers, Lin Xiao had to bury this matter deep in his heart and keep an eye out waiting for the right opportunity. He couldnt be overhasty and alert anyone.

This was a prolonged fight of patience and resilience.

Like Shen DaiYing once said, weaklings couldnt provide her affection.

If a weakling is no good, is it okay as long as hes strong?

His mind was buzzing with ideas, perhaps this was a test for her future husband, shell marry whoever can save her. If no one can, then she can only marry Caesar.

Of course, he only dared say something like this to Elena, and the result was being ignored again.

Ever since Snow left, Elena became very strange.

Elena, go buy some bread, theres still some jam left dont forget to prepare tomorrows breakfast.

Okay.

Hey, you have to dry the washed clothes, or else how can you wear it?

Okay.

Elena, are you sick? You dont look too well.

Im not.

Ok, yes, no

All her responses were similar as of late.

A couple of days later, after Lin Xiao carefully thought it over, he finally realized that lately, none of her responses have surpassed three words!

This was even more scary than being cold.

At least before, he could bicker with her, and they would have some good times, but now, the atmosphere was always lifeless.

Elena became more obedient, but also indifferent.

Why?

Did Snow give her that large of a psychological shock? Lin Xiao couldnt understand.

Elena had no reason to be hurt, she should be happy

Snow already promised her that as long as she lasts until the academy tournament is over, shell tell her how to get rid of the slave contract, and she even took the initiative to suggest an alliance.

Elena was driven out by the rebels, although it was peaceful now, one day she would have to kill her way through the Forest of the End and claim whats rightfully hers, to do that, she would need power.

Forming an alliance with Snow and obtaining the support of the Holy Light Church this was the best chance for her to reverse the situation, although he doesnt know what Snow is planning, as long as hes there, Snow shouldnt do anything that would harm Elena, he could trust her.

As long as she endured past the academy tournament, she could regain her freedom, hope was right in front of her.

Leaving the perverted Lin Xiao and returning back to her home in the south, wasnt that what she wanted all along? What else is she still unsatisfied with.

Elena had no idea why Elena became so depressed all of a sudden, he should be the one thats depressed.

He picked up a beautiful maid, and he didnt even have the chance to do anything with her before finding out that his sister sent her over, and after the academy tournament shes going to take her away again, isnt that just playing with him?

Lin Xiao didnt want Elena to leave him that early.

He likes Shen DaiYing and has no feelings towards Elena, but who wouldnt want a beautiful maid that works for him for free?

If you call him lecherous, hell admit it, if you call him perverted, he wont retort, anyways he wont let his maid go that easily.

Lin Xiao was already planning how to escape Snow after the Academy Tournament.

First, he definitely wont let Snow remove the slave contact, there was only one way, to run away. To elope with Elena!

Secondly, to avoid Snows enormous influence, and to avoid the Holy Light Churchs chase, he might as well escape into the Forest of the End and join the demons!

Lastly, he still had to conquer Elena, and make Elena willingly become his maid for the rest of her life.

Lin Xiao carefully thought about the probability of success or the three steps.

Not even mentioning the other two, theres no way he can even accomplish the first step.

Brother, if I chop off your four limbs and put you inside a jar, then you wont leave me, right?

Lin Xiao faintly remembers teaching those words to Snow. At that time, he wanted Snow to learn how to be strong, how to be brave and not be bullied by bad guys.

But now

Forgive me for I have sinned
