Picked up a Demon King to be a Maid

Something wasn’t right, how could there be a red-eyes black cat in the forest? Even if there were any, Elena can distinguish the identity of the other party through their aura, but she couldn’t distinguish that aura.

It was probably a mistake.

The strange feeling flashed by. She shook her head and drove away the irrelevant ideas and continued on the road.

On the evening of the same day, they finally arrived at Black Lake. As the rumor said, the lake was really pitch-black, the lake was oozing blackness and very horrifying, it was like a bottomless black hole at night.

“According to the map, we’re on the north side of the lake, and the leader is hiding in a camp on the south side…” Lin Xiao’s pretended to point to the map but secretly glanced at Elena. She helplessly nodded to express her approval, only then did Lin Xiao have the confidence. “Night is disadvantageous for us. We should wait until tomorrow morning to do it. So, let’s rest here tonight.”

“Yes sir, Captain Lin Xiao!” Rosie happily saluted, turned to Caesar and said, “Adjutant Caesar, help me find some hay, I want to sleep comfortably!”

“…okay.” Caesar could not refuse the cute girl Rosie’s request and went to find hay.

The Lin hunting team enters the preparation time. Tomorrow, they will launch the attack on the leader of the Jackalweres!

According to the map, most of the Jackalweres were sent to other camps by the leader, in addition to the heavy casualties a couple of days ago, If there wasn’t anything unexpected, there shouldn’t many lackeys around the leader. As long as they waited until tomorrow, and the three of them works together. If they took the initiative to strike first, regardless of how strong the leader was, they would have high chances of success!

Teacher Momm’s team was still in the forest, yet they have already found the hiding place of the leader. The S-level evaluation was close at hand!

So long as they passed tonight, as long as nothing happened tonight!

Caesar finally found enough hay to make a “small bed” for Miss Rosie. Rosie just plopped down and fell asleep.

After learning a lesson from the previous attack, captain Lin Xiao decided for them to take turns to keep watch throughout the night, in case of a demonic beast attack.

Caesar was the first one, Lin Xiao second, and although Elena did not know magic, she still had eyes and a mouth, so she could be useful and was third. Rosie, who was already asleep was last.

Nothing happened when Caesar was keeping watch, after he was done, he woke up Lin Xiao and went to sleep with a peace of mind.

After Lin Xiao was woken up, the first thing he did was to wake up Elena.

“Hey, Elena, stop pretending, hurry up and get up.”

“Tsk… annoying.” Elena opened her eyes reluctantly.

“Elena… No, Demon King, please! I’ll buy you roast chicken legs after we return!” Lin Xiao begged.

“…Don’t make me out to be some greedy carnivore.”

“How can you be an animal? You are a goddess! You’re my goddess, Goddess Elena!”

“If your goddess of light hears what you just said, the believers will probably kill you.”

“I don’t believe in the goddess… Elena, just follow the plan and act natural!” Lin Xiao unexpectedly put on a serious expression, “If you mess up my plan like last time.”

“I hate being threatened.” Elena glared at Lin Xiao coldly, although her tone was tough, her arms were involuntarily guarding her chest, seemingly remembering the scene of being violated by a bad guy.

“Hehe, don’t be angry… I look forward to your performance, Demon King!”

“Sigh…” Although Elena was unwilling, since things have already reached this stage, she could only obediently cooperate.

She flicked the dust on her body and left a bone-chilling sentence, ready to leave.

“…you better not die.”

“Oh, you’re actually worried about me? How rare.” Lin Xiao was quite moved and was about to be affectionate with Elena, but her following words fiercely smacked him across the face.

“Remember, you can only die by my hands.” After that, Elena wore her burqa and walked into the forest without looking back.

“… Why do you gotta make such an enemy like speech? Really, it’s not like I OOXX you, as for using my life…” Looking at her back disappearing into the darkness, Lin Xiao had complex feelings.

Plan A, officially started!

…

…

Caesar, you are still young, there are some things you are better off not knowing!

But father, don’t you even have a shred of feeling left for mother? Was she just a dispensable woman to you?

Caesar, how dare you say that to me? Get out of here!

Father!

Someone come, take Caesar back, don’t let him go out for the next few days. Get him a couple of teachers, let him read more, and get him to stop thinking of something ridiculous like becoming the hero.

Rather! No, you can’t do this to me, father!

…

“Hey, Caesar? Hey, stop sleeping, wake up!”

Anger, remorse, humiliation, and a painful past are often the driving force for people to push forward, but this driving force was too sad and too painful… When Caesar was awakened from his dreams, he felt that his eyes were a little damp.

“What’s wrong, Lin Xiao?” He pretended that he was still sleepy and took the opportunity to wipe his eyes.

Lin Xiao lowered his volume and whispered, “Listen! There seems to be movement in the surroundings…”

Seeing Lin Xiao’s serious expression, Caesar also realized the danger. He laid on the ground and listened carefully to the wind around him. Sure enough, there were many low and heavy footsteps to the south. The sound did not seem to be human, but some kind of demonic beast.

Was it a surprise attack? Caesar quickly picked up his broadsword and raised his awareness.

“Shh, wait a minute… It doesn’t seem to be coming towards us. I feel that the footsteps are getting farther and farther.”

“Farther and farther?” Caesar was stunned.

It was definitely the footsteps of the Jackalweres, but the other party did not seem to notice them. In other words, as long as they quietly hid here, there was no danger.

Just in case, Caesar believed that it would be better to prepare for the battle.

“Rosie, wake up…”

“Ah? What? I still haven’t slept enough yet, it’s not my turn to keep watch… What? Wuuu!!!” Before the drowsy Rosie made more noise, Caesar reached out first and covered Rosie’s mouth.

Rosie, who was just awakened from her sleep, thought that she had been taken away by some Jackalwere, and was scared to death. She mistook Caesar’s hand as a Jackalwere’s tongue, thinking that she was being licked again, she resisted out of fear and bit it!

“Ffffu…” A few drops of blood in his palms oozed out, but Caesar clenched his teeth, resisted the pain and did not say anything!

“Eh? Caesar, it was you? S-sorry, but why are you… What? Wuuu!!!” Just as Rosie wanted to talk, she was again stopped by Caesar.

Lin Xiao broke a cold sweat watching him from the side.

As expected of Caesar, can he treat girls any more roughly?

“Shh, there are Jackalweres nearby, be quiet… nod if you understand.” Caesar said.

“Wu wu wu!” Rosie nodded like a chicken pecking corn.

“Lin Xiao, what should we do next, do you want to move?” Caesar asked, while letting go of Rosie, he found a small piece of cloth and wrapped it around where he was bitten.

“Wuu…” Lin Xiao looked at Rosie with a distressed look but didn’t say anything.

This missy, how did you come to like this idiot, Caesar?

Finally liberated, Rosie took a deep breath, for fear of being smelled by the Jackalweres, she quickly wiped off the blood on her lips. Her expression was a little coy, she didn’t know whether she should apologize for biting Caesar, or she should blame Caesar’s rudeness.

She also quickly noticed the sound in the forest, but she looked around at the surroundings like she was looking for something.

“Rosie, what are you looking at? The Jackalweres are to the south.” Caesar asked strangely.

“No, I feel like something missing…” Rosie yawned and thought that she was just sleepy. “We had four people, right? But now there are only three people… Where’s Elena? Why don’t I see her?”

Mindless words can have a huge effect.

“What? Elena!?” Lin Xiao was shocked, nervous and looking around, but found nothing.

If it wasn’t for Rosie’s reminder, he and Caesar didn’t even notice that Elena was gone!

“Lin Xiao, it should be Elena’s turn to keep watch right now…” Caesar suddenly had a bad feeling. “You woke me up, I woke Rosie up, and Elena is not here… If it was not Elena, who woke you up?”

Yeah, who woke up Lin Xiao?

“This…” Lin Xiao’s expression was grave and whispered, “I, I was awakened by a cry for help.”

“Cry for help?”

“Cry for help?”

Caesar and Rosie asked together.

“Ah, not long after I went to sleep, I faintly heard someone shouting for help. I thought it was just a nightmare. Could it be… damn it!” After finishing speaking, Lin Xiao suddenly stood up and walked around the surroundings, seemingly wanting to find the strange cry for help again.

Caesar and Rosie looked at each other and their hearts sank.

That might have not been a nightmare, but a real cry for help! Elena’s cry for help!

“Save me! Save me…”

Suddenly, a sharp female voice came from the silent forest. Although the voice was weak and inaudible, the three people could just hear it.

“Listen! That was the voice!” Lin Xiao was getting emotional.

“… Don’t tell me, was Elena taken away by that group of Jackalweres??” Rosie gulped nervously.

It’s over, something big happened.
