Picked Up A Demon King To Be A Maid Vol 1 Chapter 17

“What? Did you just say that Lin Xiao has pa.s.sed the fourth level?”

“And, Lin Xiao’s maid can swat people to death?”

“Please tell me, how exactly do you swat one to death?”

“Afu, don’t tell me, you’re trying to make me laugh, aren’t you?”

Rosie was extremely dissatisfied with Afu’s report.

Rosie could ignore the fact that Afu said that Lin Xiao was a fourth-level magician. She was also willing to show surprise as a sign of respect, but Afu’s report on Elena was just too unbelievable.

The maid called Elena was only slightly good looking and had slightly big b.r.e.a.s.t.s. What’s so great about her? In Rosie’s opinion, Elena is just a hick who overestimates her own abilities. She doesn’t know of etiquette, speaks rudely and arrogantly,  and does not know her own place.

She’s a mere servant, what right does she have to be arrogant?

Rosie had just observed her —— Elena does not even have a tiny bit of magic power in her body. It seemed like Elena was also very interested in the process of using magic. She kept asking Lin Xiao about it, so it is obvious that Elena is a hick that knows nothing about magic!

“Afu, look at her.” Rosie pointed at Elena who was standing outside of the crowd. Rosie squinted and chided, “What does it mean to swat someone to death? Will she use her tiny little hand to slap you, then you’ll die? I think you’ll probably die from happiness!”

“Miss, please pay attention to your words…” Afu replied awkwardly.

“Hmph, you’re still talking back to me! Don’t tell me she’s a demon? Can she transform into a demon? That disrespectful maid is clearly an ordinary person!”Rosie grinned. “Afu, you’re getting old, your ears aren’t what it used to be. You must have misheard!”

“What? I…, I’m old?” Afu’s eyes were sluggish and it took him a while to respond. “Well, okay Miss…”

Although Afu knew that he did not mishear, but since the miss insists, he could only agree.

“But, about Lin Xiao’s power…” Rosie was fascinated while staring at Lin Xiao who was on the test grounds.

At the beginning of the test, Lin

Xiao had finished chanting and completed the magic circuit.

The surrounding students all held their breaths, staring at the dark-haired boy with sparkling eyes.

What does a fourth-level magician look like? If Lin Xiao really pa.s.sed the fourth level, he should be able to use the intermediate magic —— “Flame Eruption”, which is several times more powerful than fireball, and more importantly, Flame Eruption can attack multiple targets simultaneously.

That means that Lin Xiao will not only be able to destroy a single wooden puppet, but he can reduce every puppet on the field to ashes!

“Hey… Is that guy that strong? I don’t believe it.” Rosie s.h.i.+fted her line of sight and was searching for another familiar figure from within the crowd.

Sure enough, Caesar, who had already pa.s.sed the test, did not leave the test grounds. He stood in an inconspicuous corner and silently observed Lin Xiao’s test performance.

Caesar was also curious about Lin Xiao’s true strength.

“Caesar”…

At this time, Lin Xiao finally threw out his magic —— a magician’s basic attack magic, the plain fireball!

A blazing six-pointed star formed in front of his palm. Rosie had an illusion that the one who was currently taking the test was not Lin Xiao, but Caesar! Their movements were so similar that Rosie even suspected that Lin Xiao was deliberately imitating Caesar’s posture.

“Explode!”

BANG.

With practically the same amount of power, the same precision, the puppet was instantly reduced to ashes.

The result was exactly the same as Caesar’s, the two are equally matched!

“Lin Xiao, pa.s.s!”

Along with the teacher’s broadcast, the dark-haired boy looked happy. He respectfully bowed to teacher Woos and then left the test site away from the envious and surprised gaze of the students. On the other hand, Caesar shook his head. He sighed disappointedly and silently left.

“Miss…”

“Ah, I know.” Rosie grinned.

Based on Lin Xiao’s performance it did not seem like he was a fourth-level magician. And he had the audacity to brag about having pa.s.sed fourth-level? How shameless!

Rosie was not willing to take it, she wanted to teach Lin Xiao a lesson!

“I got it!” After thinking for a bit, Rosie thought of a trick, “Afu, look forward to my performance later!”

“Hey… what

what are you going to do?” Afu had a bad premonition. “Miss, forgive me for being nosy, but I don’t recommend getting involved with that boy.”

“Why do you have to say it like that? I never said I was going to do anything to him…” Rosie stopped and was not angry at Afu, but instead patiently listened to him. “Well, what did you mean?

Afu is not just an ordinary male servant. He had ability and a plethora of experience. He is also loyal to the Childe family. Rosie understands that he works hard for her family and has tons of merit.

She should respect Afu’s suggestion.

“Miss, that boy’s strength is as plain as day, what’s more, he may even be concealing his strength… We shouldn’t make him our enemy, we should try to win him over!” Afu said seriously, “Although the Childe family has a strong influence in Eileen, we still know nothing about the Eastern Qin Empire.”

“You mean…the east?” Rosie seems to have understood.

She was not an idiot with no brains. After Afu’s explanation, she began to hesitate.

“Since Lin Xiao is the only member of the Eastern Tribe at Loran Academy. If we befriend him, it will actually be pretty beneficial for us! Miss, you must not make an enemy for the family due to a moment of stubbornness.” Afu saw that Rosie was hesitating so he quickly added, “Also, the master has been pretty interested in the Eastern Tribe for the past couple years and wanted to try expanding his business in Qin Empire, so …”

Afu mentioned the master out of good intentions, but he forgot one important point —— Rosie still hates him!

“Ah, so annoying, again about that stinky old man!” Rosie exploded after mentioning her father. “How come you keep bringing him up? d.a.m.n it Afu, who’s side are you on?”

“Oh…” Afu was stunned.

He realized that he had made a fatal mistake, but it was too late and Rosie’s hesitation had completely disappeared.

“Hmph, I don’t care about the family business! Anyway, even if I don’t win over Lin Xiao, that old man’s treasury will only be missing a small number of gold coins.”

“But Miss…”

“I don’t

Miss…”

“I don’t care!” Rosie bit her lips. “I’ll find out today exactly how much strength he’s hidden!”

She made up her mind and walked to the testing grounds without turning around.

“Miss, please listen to me…”

“Fourth-level magician my a.s.s… Lin Xiao sure can talk big! Hmph, if he’s fourth-level then I’m a grand magician!”

“Miss! Miss!”

No matter how much Afu called her, Rosie did not look back. It’s over, it’s all over!

“Rosie! Where’s Rosie? Ah…, my throat… cough…cough” On the other side, Woos’s throat was becoming hoa.r.s.e from all the yelling.

“Teacher Woos, sorry, I’m here!” Rosie ran in front of teacher Woos and bowed her head in apology.

“It’s okay, I can still carry on… cough.”

They were only halfway through the examinations, but Woos had stood under the sun for a long time and was constantly shouting, so he would definitely be tired. Fortunately, there were other teachers around to help organize the students, otherwise, his body would not be able to withstand it.

“Okay Rosie, I know that you have great magic control and you won’t lose control, but you can’t be too careless!”

“Understood, teacher!”

Rosie walked up to the ten-meter testing line without speaking a single word. She looked at the nearby puppet and pressed her palms together.

Strips of pale green light like willow leaves rotated quickly in front of Rosie.

Magic circuit, completed.

“Whirlwind!”

Magic chant, completed.

Rosie extended her right arm and released the magic like she was throwing something outwards.

A fierce whirlwind whizzed past! The puppet was violently shaken by the wind and released squeaking sounds, the wooden poles that fixed the puppets to the ground seemed like it was going to snap. Originally, not far behind the puppet stood a few curious students, but they could not open their eyes under the violent winds and could only quickly escape.

After a while, the wind disappeared but the puppet was not damaged. There were only a few shallow cuts that remained.

“Well, Rosie, you pa.s.sed too. Next…” Woos nodded and was about to call the next student, but he was interrupted by Rosie.

“Wait!”

“What happened Rosie, are you feeling unwell?”

“Thank you for your concern, but no.” Rosie smiled and shook her head. “I want to try again, to try again, is that okay?”

“Try again? Why?”

It was not only teacher Woos, but the surrounding students were also curious and huddled closer.

As a G.o.ddess in the minds of the students, Rosie has never lacked a pa.s.sionate audience, but now she has no time to mind those flies.

“Just now, Caesar and Lin Xiao were incredible!” Rosie said sincerely, “I want to be like them and blow up the puppet with a fireball!”

“Oh?” Woos had an expression like he did not really believe her.

“Is it not possible?” Rosie fluttered her eyes and pouted, “If they can do it, I can do it! Teacher, please let me try!”

“But they’ve both pa.s.sed the third-level, that’s why their fireb.a.l.l.s are so strong. But you’re only a second-level, don’t force it.”

“No, no, my magic control is better than theirs! Although I have insufficient magic, I can certainly do it!”

“…is that right.” Woos laughed bitterly. “Hmm, it’s fine to try again, but I’m afraid you’ll lose control and hurt someone!”

“Haha, there won’t be any accidents, trust me!”

“Okay then……”

After receiving permission, Rosie grinned from ear to ear. She turned and walked a few steps forward, standing at the same ten-meter mark line and took a deep breath.

The plan is starting!

The reason why she asked for another chance was not due to a pa.s.sing whim. Choosing to attack the puppet with a weaker spell like whirlwind was also not arbitrary.

Although the power of whirlwind was small, it can pa.s.s through the puppets and disturb the students behind it. Rosie’s goal was not to attack the puppet, but to drive away the students behind the puppets to clear a road!

And the end of the road, stood a black-haired youth ——

Lin Xiao!

Rosie, the puppet, and Lin Xiao —— the three points connected in a line, a perfect angle! Supposing that Rosie misses her next spell and the fireball grazes the puppet, then Lin Xiao who is standing behind the puppet will be hit!

“Teacher Woos was just worrying that I would lose control and cause an accident.”

Rosie raised the corners of her mouth into a smile.

“Hehe… since Teacher Woos said that this is an accident, then don’t blame me Lin Xiao!”
