Picked Up A Demon King To Be A Maid Vol 1 Chapter 9

Today, Lin Xiao brought Elena to school and had already expected to encounter various troubles. However, he had already been fully prepared.

First of all, Elena’s beauty will certainly cause a commotion, but Lin Xiao doesn’t care about the pestering of ordinary students. He only needed to concentrate on one person —— Rosie.

Lin Xiao knew that Rosie would definitely come to bother him because of her jealousy. The school rules stipulates that no outsiders can be brought onto the campus. He already knew about this rule. Of course, he also knew that students can bring their servants. What he did earlier was nothing but a performance for Rosie.

Don’t forget, he succeeded in deceiving the interviewer at Loran Academy. This kind of acting was a piece of cake for him.

Before he came, he reached an agreement with Elena for the time being. Starting today, he’ll take in Elena, take her to school, and help her hide her ident.i.ty. In contrast, Elena only had to pretend to be Lin Xiao’s maid.

At that time, Elena didn’t say anything, she finally nodded and agreed after a long time and looked very reluctant.

Lin Xiao knew that the n.o.ble demon king was definitely not willing to concede to be a maid and may even be scheming something to cause him trouble. But he was tight on time, he has no time to think about Elena, and even less time to train her to become a competent maid. Now, he can only hope that Elena can recognize the circ.u.mstances, obediently listen to him and not cause him any trouble.

As long as Elena doesn’t cause any trouble, his plan was impeccable!

“My name is Elena, I am master’s slave.”

This sentence was taught to her by Lin Xiao, when she finally said it with her clear voice, Lin Xiao finally breathed a sigh of relief.

As someone of the demonic race, Elena is fluent in the common language. But since she’s not human, if she was subjected to Rosie’s interrogation, she might accidentally reveal something. That’s why Lin Xiao chose to let Elena speak bluntly. A straight punch will be a one hit kill, so that Rosie can no longer continue to interrogate him.

Therefore, after successfully clearing Miss Rosie’s level, it’s now the turn of the beloved Prince Caesar.

He already had no way of recovering the results of the magic test the day before yesterday, “tying for first place” had already become an established fact. The

excuse that “the crystal ball was damaged” was already impossible to use.

Caesar was very prideful, since Lin Xiao took his first place, he is bound to be dissatisfied. In order to restore his reputation, his most likely action was to challenge Lin Xiao to a duel. And as expected, he really did.

Everything was within his grasp! When Caesar put his badge on the table, Lin Xiao even wanted to laugh.

Duel? Don’t be stupid, he won’t fight with Caesar. Although he can easily forcibly rub Caesar on the ground with his deep magic power and make it so that Caesar wasn’t able to do anything back, then become the unparalleled genius magician of Loran Academy, but that was meaningless.

If he beat Caesar, Caesar will be discredited and lose his qualification to become a hero. As a result, the future hero position is likely to fall onto Lin Xiao. Lin Xiao can not agree to something like that, he definitely does not want to be a cannon-fodder hero and throw his life away!

In contrast, if Lin Xiao loses, his reputation will plummet and his dream to become a reserve hero will be shattered.

All in all, no matter who wins this duel, Lin Xiao’s dream would be shattered! There were no advantages, so he has only one choice —— to reject the duel. However, it wont be easy to make the self-respecting Caesar give up the duel.

Can Lin Xiao really do it?

It’s show time! It’s time to start the performance!

“I refuse!” Lin Xiao said those words with full force.

The audience was in an uproar.

Elena tilted her head and was somewhat inexplicably affected by everyone’s overreaction. She is a demon, so she does not understand how disgraceful it is for a magician to refuse a duel. It was akin to streaking naked on the streets.

“What did you say?” The angry Caesar leaned on the table with both hands and loudly shouted, “Don’t make me look down on you! Lin Xiao, fight with me, I believe that you’re an opponent worthy of my full strength!”

“Caesar, let me ask you, why do you want to fight with me?”

“Only a battle can determine who’s stronger and who’s weaker! There can only be one strongest student in the magic department!”

“But why must you be the strongest?”

“Don’t be stupid!” Caesar threw out his right arm. “Because only the first place, only the strongest person is qualified to be a hero!”

“So you challenged me to a duel in

in order to become a hero?” Lin Xiao squinted his eyes and faintly laughed, “That’s funny.”

“What’s so funny? Lin Xiao, are you humiliating me!”

“Prince Caesar, you should understand something.” Lin Xiao tapped the table with his fingers, a tone of a teacher that was disciplining a student. “Magic power is only one of the criteria for evaluating strength. In addition, the control of magic, the degree of how well you can complete magic circuits, as well as the understanding of magical knowledge, magic counters, and pre-casting spells, these are all important foundations for evaluating the strength of magicians.”

Caesar was stunned and then asked: “What about it?”

“Although both our magic power levels are at the first stage of the third-level, I admit that I am not as good as you are in actual combat ability and theoretical knowledge.”

“What did you say?” Caesar could not believe his own ears.

Lin Xiao overtly admitted defeat?

“You didn’t hear wrong. If the duel was just to determine who was stronger, then I would have to pay tribute to you.” Lin Xiao shrugged indifferently. “Prince Caesar, do you have any other reason to duel me anymore? I have clearly conceded to your strength.”

“No, no! This is just an excuse for you to run away.” Caesar shook his brilliant golden hair was glistening.

Hearing his unconfident yell, Lin Xiao understood that he had begun to waver.

That’s right, one more spurt will make him give up!

“Caesar, don’t you think this duel is too immature?”

“Immature? What do you mean?”

“Sigh, I originally didn’t want to say it…” Lin Xiao sincerely and eloquently persuaded, “Your dream is to be a hero, right? But now, you’re challenging me to a duel in the heat of the moment. Don’t tell me this is something that a qualified hero should do?”

“Ah?” Caesar was dumbfounded.

Yes, a hero is humanity’s role model. Would the hero do something so immature? Would he challenge someone to a duel in the heat of the moment?

“Caesar, your enemy should be the evil demons. It should be that monstrous demon king who eats people along with their bones! What are you doing now? You’re turning your anger towards me, aiming at your fellow comrade-in-arms! I feel really ashamed for you!” Lin Xiao seized the moral high point, and ran his mouth continuously until Caesar felt ashamed and unable to show his face.

But he didn’t realize that when he said “the monstrous demon king who eats people along with their bones,” the mouth

the mouth of the beautiful girl standing next to him twitched slightly.

Yesterday, Elena said that she hates being called a monster. G.o.d knows how the demon king will wash off this humiliation…

“Caesar, do you really want to be a hero? Or do you just want to satisfy your lamentable vanity under the n.o.ble pretext of becoming a hero!” In the end, Lin Xiao pointed at Caesar’s nose. “The you right now, are you qualified to be a hero?”

“What!!??” Caesar finally collapsed.

Lin Xiao’s last sentence was like the sharpest sword, piercing his last attachment without mercy.

That’s right, do I really want to be a hero? Is someone as impulsive as me really qualified to be the greatest hero of mankind? Lin Xiao is right, I can’t do this. This immature duel never should have been brought up…

Caesar said to himself in his heart.

He wants to give up the duel.

“Lin Xiao, I…” Caesar took a deep breath and endured the unwillingness of his heart, preparing to say the lines he never would have been able to say.

Its done! Lin Xiao was so happy flowers were blooming within him.

In the end, Caesar is still a brat, he’s not the same as someone like him who’s lived for two lives. As for the level of doing ideological work, he can even be the next successor to socialism! The political cla.s.ses he took at university weren’t useless!

Lin Xiao was very satisfied with this result.

This way, the meaningless duel was revoked, the storm of the magic test was completely suppressed, and Elena’s appearance did not cause a commotion. Lin Xiao could continue to live his peaceful life where he eats and waits for death!

Long live peace! Long live peace!

Lin Xiao almost laughed.

No! I still can’t laugh, I have to hold it in, but the hindrances have disappeared…

Lin Xiao covered his mouth and did not let himself laugh.

“Lin Xiao, you’re right, I…”

Yes, hurry up and say it Prince Caesar, say that sentence and end it all! Lin Xiao was awaiting expectantly.

Just as Caesar was ready to reach out and retrieve the badge on the table, when he was about to say the words “give up the duel”, a clear voice suddenly sounded next to him.

“Tsk, weakling.”

Although Elena’s voice was small, at this moment it was clearly branded in the everyone’s ears.

“You, what did you just say?” Caesar’s voice trembled and looked at the silver-haired girl in disbelief.

Elena was expressionless, as if saying something that was taken for was taken for granted: “I really don’t understand, you are so weak, why do you have the courage to challenge my master to a duel?”

After listening to this, Lin Xiao’s neck felt cold and his jaw almost dropped to the ground.

Intuition told him that Elena was going to do something!

“Hey, hey, stop! What are you trying to do? Don’t! Don’t mess up my plan!”

“Master, am I not right?” Elena ignored Lin Xiao’s pleading and continued to speak in a clear and indifferent voice. “Even if it was a duel, he has no chance of winning. You two are completely different levels of magicians after all.”

This statement surprised everyone there!

Even Rosie, after hearing Elena’s domineering speech, there was no anger, only fear!

With the holy G.o.ddess as witness, how is a mere maid brave enough to say that? Is she crazy?

“No chance of winning? Hey, it looks like I’m being underestimated.” Caesar coldly laughed.

Elena’s words touched his most sensitive nerves, which was his bottom line as a man.

“Lin Xiao, you’re right, I’m not worthy of being a hero because of a moment of anger.” Caesar squinted and spoke word by word, “But today I must defend my honor!”

He picked up his badge and then fiercely threw it on Lin Xiao’s face.

“This is not a magician’s duel, but a contest between men! Lin Xiao, you can’t refuse, you must fight!”

“I, I, I, I…”

“Hmph, you’re bringing humiliation upon yourself. Master will definitely win.” Elena helped Lin Xiao pick up the badge and faintly said.

Lin Xiao felt that he was about to suffocate.

“Elena, why are you, you, why are you…”

“Why?” Elena said expressionlessly, bending over Lin Xiao’s ear and said coldly, “Because I am a monster demon king who eats people along with their bones.”

“Eh?”

Lin Xiao remembered what happened yesterday, he joked that Elena was a monster that ate people, causing her to become very angry. Earlier he again mentioned “man eating” and trampled on the dignity and reputation of Elena as the demon king. She was already unwilling to act as a maid and unwilling to cooperate. Now she was once again humiliated, naturally she was unable to bear it, so…

No matter how much I plan, it’s nothing held up to G.o.d! Lin Xiao never would have expected that his impeccable plan would be destroyed like this by Elena!

The laugh he was holding in earlier, perhaps would never be able to come out anymore.

“Since my plan failed today, it must be fate!”
