Chapter 331: Weak Women Can Do Big Things
Us again, is it
Although ShenDai Ying couldnt exactly understand what Elena was saying, but she could read the stinging arrogance from her tone.
ShenDai Ying felt like she was a weak and incompetent woman in Elenas eyes. No matter how good she was with swords, how prestigious her status was, but she still needed someone to rely on, yearning for a dependable man to protect her, take care of her, and become her support.
So, was she a weak woman that had a desire to rely on men?
Really
If it wasnt for Elena mentioning it, ShenDai Ying had never even thought about it.
She was the imperial princess, a coldblooded killer, there were countless men chasing her and there were countless more souls departed by her sword, so how could she be weak?
Im tired, good night.
Elena ignored ShenDai Ying and immediately turned to leave and went back to sleep.
ShenDai Ying laughed at herself as she watched Elena leaving.
Indeed, compared to Elena, she was indeed a bit weak, since Elena wasnt human after all
Pride, solitude, a disdain of everything, even though Elena was wearing a lowly maids outfit, she was insufferably arrogant. In comparison, her actions were indeed weaker, and were naturally detested by Elena.
But whats wrong with being a weak girl?
Whats wrong with desiring for a reliable man?
I only want to pass the rest of my life with someone I like, each to their own, I just want to live a peaceful life, why should I be insulted for that?
Elena was too arrogant, she just came earlier than her by a bit, whats the big deal? As a woman, Elena wasnt even good enough!
She was insensitive, didnt understand men, and always spoke coldly. No matter how big her chest was, or how beautiful she was, whats the use?
Just look at how long Lin Xiao and Elena have been together, wasnt their relationship still that ambiguous? If it were ShenDai Ying, she would have already eaten a pure little boy like Lin Xiao. How could she leave any room for any slut to come in?
Tsk, self-important maid, one day Ill show you that even weak women can do big things!
ShenDai Ying clenched her fists and competed with her.
It was just because of the engagement, thats why she couldnt go all out and take the official step with Lin Xiao. Otherwise, a mere virgin like Lin Xiao would be collapsed by her feet with just a bit of temptation and become her obedient ***.
If that was the case, how would Elena still be able to act all haughty like that, she would probably be off crying somewhere!
Of course, there was no way for Elena to know about ShenDai Yings complicated thoughts, and if Lin Xiao was actually taken away, it was still unknown whether Elena would be off crying somewhere
And so, a not so quiet night passed liked that and they continued on their way the next day.
After that, every time ShenDai Ying and Elena looked at each other, their gazes were different. There was still some jealousy but they appeared to be more harmonious and the five people steadily moved to the next stop.
Finally, they arrived at the last stop before leaving Lombard Kingdom, and at the same time, the first stop towards Gotham Kingdom.
Nightown
When their carriage entered the town, it was just past lunch, the sultry heat made one drowsy. The only sounds were the gentle hooves of the horse on the sparsely populated street. To the distance was the wailing canyon, the towering valley was enveloped by a thin fog and it could even be seen from far away.
Today, the five were going to rest here for a couple of days and then pass through the canyon in one go.
The journey only truly started once they left Nighttown, before that, Lin Xiao planned to stay a couple of days to take a good rest and buy some supplies in case anything happens midway.
Of course, unlike his laziness, Xiao Tian strongly requested that they immediately left after one day of rest. They were already going at a slow pace and was long behind the other investigators.
Lin Xiao sternly refused that.
Actually, Xiao Tian wasnt wrong. As a spot that one had to pass to leave the kingdom, all the investigators from Lombard kingdom would have to pass by. Several days ago on the road, Lin Xiao already noticed several carriages like theirs and ended up being passed by them, until they were left far behind.
Left late and moving slowly, Lin Xiaos group was already the last team.
Lets talk about Caesar. Caesar and Rosie left a whole week before them and moved quickly, not dragging it on like Lin Xiao. He had so many problems, like being hungry and wanting to eat, or being afraid of meeting bandits and wanting to take the long way, and he kept infuriating Elena and Xiao Tian.
Xiao Tian was afraid of calling him out, but Elena didnt care, and Lin Xiao had his ample share of mental attacks!
Though it had very little success
Elena, Xiao Tian, I can understand your feelings for wanting to fight for all of humanity but dont forget, your body is your capital, if you dont take good care of yourself, how can you go and take care of others?
The carriage was speechless.
Elena almost forgot what this guy was good at. When they were in a team with Caesar, he could always come up with some sophistry to lead the entire team his way. Now that Caesar wasnt here, ShenDai Ying was all docile and obedient, and Yao Zi also trusted him, so the only ones left were Elena and Xiao Tian, so they could only obediently follow him.
And so, they got ready to find a place to stay at.
I heard that the alliance office provides accommodations, lets go take a look!
Peh, what a stingy guy, not even willing to pay for an inn and you even want to go leech off the alliance office The maid quietly grumbled.
As the person most familiar with him, Elena quickly saw through him.
Hm? Elena, what did you just say? I didnt hear you did you just say that you didnt want to sleep in a room tonight, and you want to sleep by yourself on the streets?
N-no you misheard.
Elena didnt want to sleep on the streets so she could only take a step back.
Hm? What? Elena, I still couldnt hear you, did you say that you want to sleep with me on the same bed? Hehe, okay then, what a good maid, since you like your master so much, then Ill agree to it. I order you to sleep naked with me tonight!
Hah? I-is there something wrong with your ears? I never said that!
No, you clearly did, I heard it!
Pervert, I didnt!
Dont be shy Elena you said it!
Did not!
Did too! Im your master, so my word counts for more, anyways I heard it.
Hehe, is that so? How come I never heard it? At that time, a gentle voice could be heard.
Sister Ying?
While they were arguing, a sword came slicing down right between the two that were blushing.
ShenDai Ying used her beautiful sword to stop Lin Xiaos harassment while moving towards Elena and pulling her arm to protect her.
Lin Xiao, you, stop always bullying your maid. She wont sleep with you tonight, shell sleep with me!
Hah?
Ha?
Lin Xiao and Elena both stared at ShenDai Ying.
Why are you looking at me like that? Were all women, sleeping together should be fine, right?
Uh, I guess, but
But what? Seeing as to how Lin Xiao still wanted to talk, ShenDai Ying took out her dignity as the older sister and rebuked him, Lin Xiao, were on a mission right now, not playing house. I dont care if you want to tease your maid at home, but now that were outside, you better watch yourself! Otherwise, Im going to be angry!
Sister Ying? Uh
Since she said that Lin Xiao could only drop it.
Obviously, he was never actually going to force Elena to room with him, he was just teasing her. But when he saw that Elena got a helper and was protected by ShenDai Ying, he felt wronged.
Didnt those two not see eye to eye? When did they suddenly get so close?
On one side, the three were in a heated talk, on the other, Yao Zi and Xiao Tian helplessly looked at each other and pretended that they didnt hear anything.
Soon, the carriage arrived at the center of the city and stopped near the alliance office. Lin Xiao called everyone off and prepared to find a free room.
After he got off the carriage, he noticed something wasnt right.
Lin Xiao
Un.
Not just him, Elenas magic radar also noticed something strange. The two exchanged glances and raised their vigilance as they slowly stepped into the office.
Enemies? No, there werent many strong enemies, on the contrary, there were a lot of Companions.
There were a lot of carriages stopped near the office, the inside was also packed full of people. Lin Xiao couldnt even find the manager after entering and the room was filled with people that looked ready to fight.
That didnt feel right, according to ShenDai Ying, Nighttown wasnt a flourishing place, even if it was a necessary stop, there shouldnt be this many people.
Could it be that something happened?
