Picked up a Demon King to be a Maid

Chapter 242: Déjà vu

Chapter 242: Déjà vu

A few hours ago.

Lakeside camp

No one knew about the battle that occurred within the remains.

Intense? Breathtaking? Or nothing out of the ordinary.

Rather than those unknown details, the people at the camp cared more about the results.

Today was the last day of the competition, and it was completely over at dusk. At that time, the judges will total the points from all the teams and select the first, second, and third place and prepare for the awards ceremony. When the competition officially ends, Heino Kingdoms people will take everyone towards the island to welcome the victors.

Who will win, Loran Academy?

Probably, there were no other teams that could compete with them after all. All the original favorites all got eliminated and Loran Academy had a large amount of points, so victory was already within their grasp.

Up until today morning, Woos was sure that their teams secured the first place, even though Bamboo Academy was able to finish off Heino Academy for some reason and got a lot of points, but they were still far from first.

As long as they were able to pass today without incident, they would win for sure.

But the closer they got to victory, the more uneasy Woos became, like something big was about to happen

Ever since Jennifer secretly headed towards the island, there was a constant sense of unease surrounding the camp. After Heino Academy lost, they were never brought back and Prince Charless whereabouts were unknown. The camp was also filled with a large number of soldiers that were completely geared up and arranged into rows like they were waiting for some signal.

Did Prince Charles encounter danger? Momm lazily yawned outside the tent.

It should be, Devoru the Golden Lion is there, it would be difficult even for Caesar. Woos stared at the crystal at the center of the camp and fell into thought.

After inquiring about it, Woos finally made out Bamboo Academys team, two fifth-level magicians and two fourth-level warriors, a team that could barely get by. Among them, the girl called Yao Zi couldnt even complete a basic magic circle and was completely useless, so the entire team depended on her brother to enter the competition.

Based on their strength, finishing off Heino Academy was just a pipe dream, Woos conjectured that they were probably finished off by someone else and Bamboo Academy just got lucky and picked up the scraps.

But the important point was, who finished off Heino Academy could it be an assassin?

That was probably the only reasonable judgment.

Prince Charles had a high position and great authority, there was strong opposition when he decided to participate in the first place, as many were afraid he would meet an assassin, so it wouldnt be strange, but

Damn!

Woos suddenly thought of something and turned to stare at Momm.

Momm was stunned but notice the anxiousness in his eyes and understood.

Old man Woos, you dont think hey, d-dont scare me!

If Prince Charles met an assassin, then Loran Academy might also meet a terrible fate.

Even if Caesar wasnt favored among royalty, he was still a genuine prince! Along with his fiance, the Great Qin Empire princess, Shen DaiYing, were both hard to approach big shots, so if they wanted to assassinate them, what would be a better time then now?

Thinking about that, Momm wanted to quickly go to the island to check it out!

If something happened to Caesar, then Woos and him would be too ashamed to go back

At that time, a thunderous roar came from a distance.

Whats that sound?

Woos was startled and fixed his eyes into a distance and noticed that sound came from the island.

Although the camp was far from the center of the island, but that sound still came all this way, and it rumbled like an earthquake and made everyone shiver.

Hey, Woos, whats that sound? That cant be eighth-level magic, right? Momm nervously swallowed.

With all that commotion, it was either the army, or demons invaded, otherwise, only eighth-level and above forbidden magic could make the ground tremble like that!

But this was the academy tournament, the island was full of youth around fifth-level, how could anyone cast such terrifying forbidden fifth-level magic?

No, it wasnt eighth-level magic. Unlike Momms panic, Woos carefully listen to the trembling and was also fixated on the rising faint red mist and realized it, Its seventh-level magic someone cast several seventh-level magic, and it resonated so thats why it was so loud.

Multiple seventh-level magic? Isnt that pretty amazing!

As expected of the knowledgeable magic teacher Woos, he was able to tell just by listening to the sound and seeing the lights from a distance.

But that was the limit to what he could achieve.

If he was more closer, he could probably also tell it was the seventh-level magic, Flaming Meteor, if he analyzed it even more, he might even notice that it was a twenty times multi-cast of course, no matter what, he would never be able to connect this with a certain black-haired youth.

Who knows what kind of expression he would make if he knew that this commotion was all caused by Lin Xiao alone

Woos and Momm were sure that sound definitely wasnt caused by a student, but a certain unknown powerful person.

This undoubtedly proved that something was going on!

Momm! Momm!

What, dont pull on me, Im still troubled although were in first, but something happened on the island, shouldnt we quickly check it out with the people from Heino Kingdom?

Thats right! We have to go find them!

Haha? What are you so emotional for? Hey! Woos, whats with you?

Momm continuously complained and when he turned around, he saw Wooss sorrowful face, and it looked like he was about to cry.

Momm! Look! The crystal pillar Woos pointed at the thick pillar and quivered, Our points, it was just plundered by Bamboo Academy!

Hah? What did you say!??

He nearly jumped out of his skin at the news!

Why is it Bamboo Academy again?

They just picked up the scraps from Heino Academy, so why is them again? Doesnt Lin Xiao always boast about how smart he is, did he get taken advantage of?

Or were they also done in?

Realizing the danger, Woos couldnt be bothered with much more, even if the soldiers already locked it down, he was still going to get on the island with Woos.

In the beginning, the captain tried to stop them, and said that the head judge Jennifer already gave orders that no one was to leave the camp. But Woos said that someone multi-cast seventh-level magic and caused an earthquake, so he couldnt obstruct him anymore and sent a small team to go along with them.

After they left, the remaining people became even more alarmed, but what was more scary happened next

Who knows where they came from, but a large group of people wearing white robe suddenly appeared at the camp! They all had overwhelming presences and none of them seemed like an ordinary person!

They barged into the camp, ignored the passerbys and directly revealed their identity they were the strongest force from the Holy Light Church, the Crucifix Guards!

Why did they appear here? Was there going to be a war?

They didnt say much, like soldiers on a mission. They split into two, one group heading towards the lakeside church, and the others climbing into boats, following Woos onto the island.

Reinforcements?

Woos ignored the boats behind him. According to the signal from the crystal, they should be in the center of the island, so as soon as they landed they rushed towards where it happened and finally arrived in the afternoon.

When Woos stood at the entrance of the remains, he was flabbergasted.

There were the corpses of multiple hideous monsters, the ground was also covered in huge craters, and the ancient remains was on the brink of collapse.

Not just Woos, but the soldiers from Heino Kingdom were also dumbstruck.

No one knew what these monsters were, and also who used such a terrifying magic to crush all these monsters, but what happened here definitely wasnt just as simple as an assassination

They investigated further and followed Woos into the remains and finally found Loran Academys students in a hidden cave in the deepest part of the remains.

The originally dim cave was now exceptionally bright because of the hole someone opened overhead them. The light shone in through the hole and illuminated the interiors, forming a solemn and dignified light pillar and made them feel veneration like it was a shrine. Surrounding the shrine there were multiple people lying around it, unconscious, there were also three hideous monsters like the ones outside, like offerings for the Gods.

A sacred pillar of light, abundant offerings, the only thing out of place was the master servant pair crying in the center of the shrine

Master! Are you okay!?

Elena! I-Im fine

But master, youre injured!

No, its okay, these injuries are nothing rather than me, theyre the real heroes, they saved us!

Wuuu, master! Its all my fault, in order to protect me

Dont cry, silly. Youre my maid, how could I leave you behind?

Within the pillar of light, Lin Xiao and Elena embraced each other without any shame in front of Woos and the others.

Lin Xiao? Elena? You guys

Other than the two of them, they were surrounded by people with familiar faces lying on the floor.

Woos should have been happy to see those two safe, but he stopped smiling.

For some reason, Woos had an uncomfortable sense of dj vu.

Didnt Lin Xiao put on a similar act before?
