Picked up a Demon King to be a Maid

Chapter 400: Please, Die

Chapter 400: Please, Die

Claire didnt know what basis Lin Xiao had, but she understood one thing.

Lin Xiao wasnt a human, but a monster!

In the beginning, she shut her eyes and leaned against him not knowing what was happening around them, but now she could see it all!

Were the living dead very scary? No, it was the opposite, the scary one was this monster she was hugging!

Lin Xiao was casually tossing various magic like it didnt cost anything, exploding the living dead left and right. If the living dead army was like the sea and struck wave after wave, then Lin Xiao was like a solid dam, unmoving even against the most vicious tides.

While Lin Xiao was doing that, Claire couldnt suppress her curiosity and quietly questioned him.

Why are you so strong.

Geniuses are made up of one percent talent and ninety-nine percent sweat.

Claire continued to ask. Then how strong are you.

I dont know.

You dont know?

Ive never met someone strong enough where I had to use all my strength.

Uh Claire didnt know how to respond. Okay then, since youre so strong, why does no one know how strong you are?

Because with great power comes great responsibility, and I dont want any responsibility, so I purposely acted weak.

Really? Is there something wrong with you Claire felt her head hurt as she continued to ask.

But why are you still E rank? Even if you wanted to hide your strength, theres no reason to stay that low of a rank, right?

If it wasnt for Lin Xiaos low rank, Claire wouldnt have looked down on him so much and if she knew his real identity sooner, then they wouldnt have become so sharply opposed to one another

Because I didnt have time.

He did want to raise his rank, but he came right after getting qualified, so when would he have the time to rank up?

Since you dont want responsibility and youre lazy, why did you come with me? No you didnt come with me, you just wanted to save your friend, Caesar, right?

Uh, well actually its not just because of Caesar. Your enemy is also my enemy, so from a certain perspective were comrades.

Hm? Your enemy? My enemy?

Wasnt their enemy the living dead? And at most one person was behind the scenes controlling them, but Lin Xiaos words made it seem like there was the existence of some other enemy hiding in the dark.

Do you not know about the enlightened?

The enlightened whats that?

I dont really know how to explain either anyway, youll see for yourself later.

As he said that, he smiled and pulled her from behind him to the front.

Just as she was wondering why he was pulling her instead of killing the monsters, she realized that all the surrounding living dead gave up attacking just as Lin Xiao said. They stood in place as if they were waiting for someone.

Could it be

Claire suddenly realized Lin Xiaos plans after seeing this.

The living dead were clearly being controlled but were getting destroyed by Lin Xiao, so continuing was useless and the person behind the scenes wouldnt just let that happen.

Forcing the person behind the scenes to reveal themselves was that his plan?

Claire suddenly felt a chill. If she continued down that thought, if that was his plan from the beginning, then didnt he purposely put on a show when he was fighting with Andrew? With how strong he is, he could easily scare Andrew away or even instakill him, but rather he chose to anger him and the two had a fight where it ended with Andrews angry roar that echoed throughout the entire forest, so was that all part of his plan?

He purposely caused a loud commotion when fighting with Andrew to attract all the living dead, then he would bombard them to make the person behind the scenes show themselves!

No, perhaps his plan started even before that The more Claire thought about it, the more startled she became.

Lin Xiao hated her so why did he save her at the most critical time? That was strange from the beginning.

Lin Xiao said it was because his maid told him she was in danger so he came but the question was how much did the maid see?

If the maid already noticed Andrew and the others betraying her, why didnt she say so earlier and had to wait until Andrew caught her before appearing?

There was only one answer, Lin Xiao was using her!

If Andrew didnt catch her, then there would be no one to help Lin Xiao with his performance. It had to be said, when lost his arm, along with his roar, provided the absolute best bloody scent and noise, it was hard for those living dead to not notice!

As for Claire she was also a crucial person since she was the highest-ranking commander and had a noble status, no matter who was working behind the scenes, eliminating her would only be a beneficial thing, and Lin Xiao saw that so he ignored their history and saved her.

To put it simply, Lin Xiao saw her as bait and Andrew as the fishhook, and he was using the two of them to catch something big!

Lin Xiao, the reason you saved me and purposely said youre going to violate me to scare me to listen was that all within your plans?

Oh? I didnt think you would see through it, although it took a bit longer, not bad. Thats right, Im using you. Lin Xiao chuckled and honestly responded, What else do you think the reason was? Because I like you, I wanted to violate you? Dont be dumb, for a tomboy like you with a bad temper, and your chest is like a file, what kind of man would be interested in your body?

B-bullshit! Clearly Andrew

No, no, a muscle man like Andrew has a warped sense of beauty, so thats why he was captivated by you, but that doesnt prove you have any feminine charm.

You!!

Even though she knew it wasnt the time to fight, after hearing his ridiculing laugh, all the good feelings she had towards him was all gone!

Okay, okay, being used by me is better than being violated, right? Or do you think the latter is better? If thats the case I can still satisfy you after this is over. Suspension, bondage, or whipping and wax dripping, and even nyotaimori or role playing, I can satisfy you however you like!

None of them! Bastard! Just watch how Ill take care of you when we get back eh? Shh l-look over there!

She suddenly saw a mysterious man wearing a white robe walk out of the darkness and immediately went silent and pulled on Lin Xiaos hand to get him to look.

The mans clothing looked like that of the holy light church at first look, but upon closer inspection, there was a big difference. Not only did it have a hood to hide their appearance, but there was also a strange depiction of the moon and sun embroidered on the clothes.

Princess Claire, hello, if I havent seen you before, I never would have believed that you would be the shouting shrew.

As he spoke, the living dead around him obediently made a path for him, which further confirmed Lin Xiaos judgment that he was the one behind the scenes!

W-who are you!?

Princess, Im the third apostles servant, darkness.

Third apostle, whats that?

Hm? So you havent heard of the enlightenment society yet?

Enlightenment society, whats that? Are all these living dead because of you guys?

Yes.

Why?

I also didnt want to make it such a big deal, but there was just a little mistake.

A little mistake??? His indifferent tone enraged her.

Did all these people die from just a little mistake? All those innocent people around them that he was beckoning around as mere monsters! Were there lives only worth that much?

Okay, stop

Noticing that Claire was going out of control, Lin Xiao patted her shoulder and pulled her behind him again.

Perhaps these things were still too cruel for her, since she was a princess who was determined to save her kingdom. It might be a bit much for her to face these inhumane bastard cultists.

Darkness, right?

Hm? Youre Lin Xiao?

Thats right, I am. Sigh, its really hard to meet someone from the enlightenment society.

You wanted to meet me? Oh, I see, you purposely caused this commotion to force me to show myself.

Since you know and you still dare to show up, it seems youre quite confident.

So, what do you want?

You said you were the third apostles servant?

Thats right.

Then can you please call him over?

Lin Xiao clapped his hands together and smiled.

That apostle you speak of I want to kill him. Thanks.
