Picked up a Demon King to be a Maid

Chapter 413: The Opposite, Not the Other Side

Chapter 413: The Opposite, Not the Other Side

If Elena had to answer this question while she was still the demon king, she wouldnt be able to answer, because at that time she didnt know what she could be scared of.

If it was just a simple personality flip, then she would probably change from being cold to someone more like ShenDai Ying thats gentle and charming.

But now

Now she had fears hidden deep inside her. If she were affected by the black magic, not only would she turn gentle and lovely, there was a possibility that she would turn into something even more humiliating.

That terrifying scene would often plague her nightmares.

In it, her counterattack completely fail and her people were completely slaughtered by the leader of the nightwolves. Her missing father was also decapitated by the villains from the enlightenment society and his corpse was hung outside the gates of the Holy City for three months, signaling the complete downfall of the black-eyed red cat rule.

And she would be the sole survivor, completely losing all hope and could only resort to being Lin Xiaos maid for the rest of her life.

The reason Lin Xiao never had any perverted thoughts towards her and treated her with respect was because of her ace and she could take Lin Xiao with her? What if one day she completely lost all power and became a normal girl, what will happen then?

Lin Xiao definitely wouldnt hold back against her who is powerless!

In her nightmare, Lin Xiao takes off his kind mask and reveals his perverted true colors and keeps her imprisoned and would use cruel methods to torture her and wipe her of her arrogance until she became an obedient maid!

On that day, she would surely wear a sexy outfit and respectfully kneel in front of Lin Xiao with a blush and speak unbearably vulgar words while completely devoting herself to her master.

Thats right, thats what she feared the most.

From a monarch that wanted revenge to being completely reduced to Lin Xiaos plaything!

N-no! I-I will never be like that! I wont give in even if I die, I wont!

While Elena was thinking about it, she suddenly painfully clutched her head with a hideous expression like she was having a nightmare, the scenes in her head were becoming more vivid and it was like she could even hear Lin Xiaos laughter. She scared herself witless as her teeth chattered and even startled ShenDai Ying.

ShenDai Ying realized she must have thought about what she feared the most so she stopped asking and held Elenas arm and tried to use her own warmth to help dispel her fears.

Elena was too cute when she was trembling like that, you couldnt help but comfort this startled little kitty cat, even ShenDai Ying was no exception.

Hmph, you want me to become a maid like that? Impossible!

Elena finally awakened as she clenched her fist and glared at that black-haired youth who was walking ahead of them with Claire.

Hehe, okay, okay, being Lin Xiaos maid is a happy thing, the terrifying things youre imagining wont happen.

And what about you? ShenDai Ying, what do you fear most, what do you not want to become?

Me? Thats simple, thats to become a heartless killer~!

ShenDai Ying already anticipated it as she drew her short sword and jumped in front of her to make a chuuni pose, with one hand covering her face and the other holding her sword, she even purposely used a cold tone and spoke like a heartless killer

Your life is mine! I guess something like that?

Previously the sword-wielding beauty looked indifferent like a corpse, then she smiled and stuck out her tongue in embarrassment and was like a completely different person.

Elena wasnt like Lin Xiao and wouldnt just accept something like that.

You said that it wasnt simply a change in personality, but fear. ShenDai Ying, youre already a killer, thats the other side of you, not the opposite of your personality, and not your inner fears.

Im already a killer is it

Yes, youre the princess that smiles as you seduce men, and also the vicious killer that kills innocents. So ShenDai Ying, what is your inner fear?

Like she wanted to get back at her for earlier, Elena also asked the same question to try and draw out ShenDai Yings fears.

My inner fears I ShenDai Ying muttered, but she couldnt find an answer.

Elena could see her own fears, but she couldnt tell what she feared the most, what was it that she most didnt want to become?

Getting married to Caesar and becoming a political sacrifice?

Receiving a mission and killing Lin Xiaos friend?

Or betraying Shen Yue Ge and being chased and finally dying in the wilderness and get eaten clean by wild dogs?

Those were all quite scary to her, but also not that scary at the same time.

She already made preparations for the worst, she could accept no matter which one of the above happened, she would just be sad, so it couldnt be called fear.

Everyone all had their own fears, she just hadnt realized hers yet.

I-I dont know I dont know I really dont know.

ShenDai Ying lowered her head and her arm slightly trembled. The more she thought, the more chaotic her thoughts became, she unconsciously clenched her short sword and let out a sharp killing intent.

Hey! Whats wrong?

Elena noticed she was acting strange so she went over to pat her shoulder.

All she felt was an instantaneous electric shock.

Elena felt her fingertip go numb and ShenDai Ying came out of it after that. She raised her head and her killing intent completely vanished.

What did you just think of? Elena asked as she rubbed her numb finger.

Nothing! N-nothing!

She didnt lie, she did indeed forget what she was thinking about and couldnt replay the scenes in her head and felt a bit annoyed. She also felt like her neck was itchy so she scratched it, but she still wasnt getting any relief.

ShenDai Ying, could it be

Elena tilted her head sensing something, but she wasnt sure, since ShenDai Ying trained in assassination techniques for a long time her aura was almost nonexistent, and it was difficult for her perception to clearly focus on ShenDai Ying, it was annoying.

Hehe, its nothing Im fine, you dont need to worry.

But you

I already said I was fine! You usually ignore people so why are you so talkative today? Didnt you hate me!?

Eh?

Elena didnt understand why ShenDai Ying suddenly got angry but looking at her surprised expression, she was probably also surprised by her own words.

S-sorry, I might be too tired and need some rest Ill go sleep first!

Hey! Hey!

Elena watched ShenDai Ying slip away in her high heels and could only helplessly sigh when she couldnt be stopped.

Did I say something to make her angry?

Elena couldnt think of why she would be angry and thought it was because she thought of something scary and she scared herself and thats why she became like that.

Wait why am I worried about her?

Elena suddenly remembered that woman kept pestering Lin Xiao which was already unpleasant enough, so there was no need for her to keep worrying.

Sigh, I better just go to sleep.

It was already bright out and everyone stayed up overnight so it was when they were most tired. That Lin Xiao already ran into an empty room and was comfortably sleeping and Elena followed Yao Zi to find a room and went to sleep.

Darkness was killed, Caesar was saved, so this mission could be called a success and they believed that they would soon be able to solve this plague.

In a nutshell, the road ahead was bright.

Just as everyone was immersed in their dreams, a bunch of unexpected guests arrived in Yellowstone.

A large number of people wearing white robes suddenly rushed into Yellowstone and blocked all the main roads.

Keep an eye on them, dont let a single person go!

Yes, Saintess!
