Picked up a Demon King to be a Maid

Chapter 503: A National Effort To Be A Matchmaker

That person was moving too fast so everyone could only see who it was after he landed on the floor.

It was actually Bacon!

With what Mina knew about Deborah, she was extremely protective of her subordinates even if they made a mistake she would be on her subordinates side.

But this time she was completely different, not only did she not protect him, she picked him up like a sack and tossed him to Lin Xiaos feet and ordered him to apologize!

Even Lin Xiao didnt have time to react and had originally thought that Deborah was mad at him, but she was mad at Bacon.

Deborah was indeed angry with Bacon who offended Lin Xiao, but that wasnt the real reason she was so angry. If it was just offending someone important, she wouldnt be this angry and wouldnt just throw Bacon like that, there was another reason. As for the reason, Gerrard and Mina didnt hear about it until a while later.

Do you remember what Deborah left to do earlier?

She went to meet the Grand Marshals messenger. So why did he send a messenger? If they knew the answer Gerrard and Minas attitude would immediately change, although they were already respectful enough now, with the information, they would treat him closer to a king

Barretts message was simple, there were two things

One, Lin Xiao was strong and smart and can take over his position as the Grand Marshall.

Two, Claire gave Lin Xiao Gothams dragons badge and fell in love with him.

So because of those two reasons, there was one thing Barrett wanted her to do. That was to do everything in her power to satisfy any of Lin Xiaos requests and keep him in Gotham Kingdom and marry the princess!

So in other words, he wanted Deborah to be a matchmaker!

Barrett believed that even if Lin Xiao already had two women with him, no one said he can only have one wife, so he can still keep them after marrying into the royal family.

Also, Barrett felt that Lin Xiao definitely had feelings for Claire! Although he says he only sees her as a friend, the princess has her own charms and once Lin Xiao sees it hell surely fall for her!

So Barrett decided to play matchmaker and get the two of them together, he originally wanted to do it himself but because of urgent matters at the front lines, it was hard for him to leave so he could only leave it to his good friend Deborah.

Deborah also didnt work far from the city and she also knew Claire and was in control of the supply station so she was the most suitable person to rope Lin Xiao in.

Deborah left the messenger while burdened with such heavy responsibility as she pondered on how to get information on Lin Xiao and how to get him to stay.

But it was difficult. Deborah has worked as a supply station overseer, in logistics, and even as a chef, shes done various jobs, but never been a matchmaker! Shes been trusted by Barrett to handle this, it was an enormous responsibility to shoulder, if she messed up, Gotham Kingdom would lose an outstanding grand marshall and princess Claire would lose her lover, so wouldnt she end up becoming a sinner

You can easily imagine how much stress Deborah was under. With those feelings in mind, Deborah returned and was planning on discussing with Gerrard regarding how to win Lin Xiao over, but realized he was standing right there when she entered! Also, he had a conflict with her own subordinate and was insulted!

My god, wasnt she just too unlucky?

How was she going to be a matchmaker now? Barrett trusted her so much and she immediately offends him!

Its over, its all over, Deborah was soon to become a national criminal!

When Deborah found out what Bacon did, she was as angry as how nervous she was earlier. But she couldnt change what has already happened, so she could only endure it if Lin Xiao bore a grudge, thats why she had to do whatever she could to redeem herself!

So there was only one thing she could do

She grabbed Bacons head and tossed him to Lin Xiao to deal with!

Lin Xiao, Im leaving this foul-mouthed bastard to you!

As expected of a friend of Barrett, she did things in the same direct way and wasted no time to get to work!

When she threw Bacon, that was no different than signing his death certificate, it meant that she didnt care what Lin Xiao did to him!

But Lin Xiaos response shocked her.

Uh, forget it.

Forget it?

Deborah noticed him approaching and thought he was saying the opposite of what he meant and blamed her so she respectfully bowed and admitted to her wrongdoings.

Lin Xiao, sorry, its all my fault! Even though I wasnt here earlier, my subordinate insulted you, so its my responsibility, its my incompetent discipline so hit and punish me as you like!

Deborah was earnest as she even took out her personal dagger and presented it to him.

Everyone fell silent when they saw what was happening. They knew about Lin Xiaos status, but they never thought it would be this much!

But that wasnt what Lin Xiao wanted.

Hey, why do you all act so emotionally, cant you be more normal? Lin Xiao pushed her hands to get her to take her dagger back.

Normal? Arent you planning on punishing me?

Of course not you didnt do anything wrong and Im not a tyrant, why would I use that dagger?

But Bacon

Sigh, I was just playing with him, dont take it seriously, we dont actually mind.

After hearing that, Deborah realized she made a fuss over a minor issue and laughed.

I never expected you would be this generous haha, okay! As expected of the man deeply loved by the princess, its my fault for underestimating you.

Wait what did you just say? Whos deeply loved by the princess?

Uh you misheard! I didnt say that.

Deborah jumped and realized she accidentally let it slip. Barretts mission for her was top secret, so she couldnt let Lin Xiao know in case he builds up a guard, otherwise whatever she did would be pointless.

So she could only act stupid.

Okay, lets say that I misheard and get back to business. Deborah, I need the sacred crystal fruit, I hope you can give me some.

Why do you need that? Uh, sorry, I shouldnt ask. We do have some, but I dont have any.

Then where is it?

With Bacon.

Hah?

Everyone turned in unison to look over at that man who just barely stood up.

When Bacon saw their gazes he thought he did something wrong again!

What? What do you want? I know I was wrong please stop messing with me!
