Picked up a Demon King to be a Maid

Chapter 339: In a New Light

In the evening

When Abra announced the delay to their departure, everyone expressed their intense dissatisfaction.

Abra was worried about this happening and thats why he specifically asked Lin Xiao for a reasonable excuse and Lin Xiao did just that.

Yao Zi needed two days to rest and she also promised everyone that she would definitely do her best to help everyone clear the path.

No one had any more complaints after hearing that.

After seeing Yao Zis performance, no one had any doubts regarding her skills. They were sure that they would succeed with her help.

Who wouldnt like someone strong helping? Even if they werent afraid of dying, no one likes sacrificing themselves for no reason either. With Yao Zi, their chances of winning would greatly improve and it was worth waiting two more days!

Since they have already stayed in Nightown for a while, what are a few more days?

So everyone left Abra alone and after confirming their details, they each went their own separate ways.

The only person left no, strictly speaking, it was two people. The handsome prince and his follower.

Abra, are you serious?

Un, of course, Im serious Caesar, its been tiring for you these days too, so go and get some rest.

The only people left at the office were Abra and those two.

There was no one else and Abra relaxed a lot. He yawned while tidying up the office and prepared to close down and go back home to sleep.

However, Caesar wouldnt let him go

But Abra, I dont understand.

Hm what dont you understand? Yao Zis wizards bloodline is in a restless period and she needs to rest, thats what she said personally, its not like Im making it up why dont you ask her yourself?

Well even if Caesar does ask, she already received Lin Xiaos instructions and will tell the same story to whoever asks.

Phew ah, finally done. Caesar Im going to close up, why arent you guys going?

After finally finishing up, Abra noticed that Caesar and Rosie were still standing there to the side and staring at him which made him frown slightly.

Abra, it feels like youre acting strange. Caesar blocked the door so that Abra couldnt leave.

Strange? How am I strange?

You were still very anxious just today morning, now youre very relaxed.

Relaxed?

Yes, you havent cleaned up the office for a long time. Youve never cared about all that garbage. Caesar pointed to the clean room after he just finished tidying up.

Uh is that so? Haha. Abra awkwardly laughed and scratched his head, Ah, that cant be helped, because of the demonic beasts and us failing twice, how would I be in the mood to clean up?

But you were in the mood today.

Uh yes, since Yao Zi is joining our team and since shes so strong, its only a matter of time, so of course Im relaxed!

Yao Zi may be strong, but do you really trust her? Abra, you dont naively believe that with just one more strong magician, we can easily chase away the demonic beasts, right?

Caesar, you

Abra put away his fake smile when he looked at Caesars eyes. He thought about how impressive this kid was, even if Caesar was young, he couldnt keep anything from him.

Caesar was right, Abra didnt really trust that pair of siblings.

I really cant you seem so dense usually, so why are you so sensitive at times like these?

Abra helplessly sighed and found a place to sit down before calling them over to have a talk.

So Abra, what are you hiding from everyone? Are those siblings really reliable?

Heh, how would I know if theyre reliable or not but I dont think so.

As the manager, he wasnt an idiot. Although he accepted the siblings, as an ally fighting on the same lines, he still had to observe them more carefully.

So what if you have the wizards bloodline? Abra wanted a reliable ally, not a scaredy-cat or a backstabber. On the battlefield, everyone were comrade-in-arms that entrusted their lives to one another. So other than their strength he also needed to verify their true nature.

After what happened during the day, he arranged the best rooms for Lin Xiao and them. He even sent some attendants to serve their every need and gave them the best food and things, all with the offices money and everyone treated them respectfully.

For the siblings that havent had many experiences, they were delighted at this luxurious treatment.

When have they ever been treated like this? In the past, they had to be on someone elses good side just to be able to eat. Now they were treated completely differently and werent very used to it.

But Yao Zi was still good, even though she was complimented and respected, she was still the same and didnt let it go to her head. She still obediently listened to Lin Xiao and is resting for two days before preparing to head out.

Actually, the wizards bloodline didnt really matter to her and it wasnt something that valuable. Even if she could freely control it one day, she wouldnt use it for any personal gains or anything, since she had no desire of becoming a hero, so no matter how strong the power was, it was just a shield to protect herself.

Yao Zi still remained ascetic, but her brother not so much.

Lin Tian never knew what it felt like to be praised, let alone people arranging a comfortable room and providing luxurious food for free and even attendants serving them left and right it was comparable to how nobles were treated!

Pigging out doesnt even need to be mentioned, bossing the attendants around was also worth experiencing. Xiao Tian really enjoyed experiencing life as a noble, thankfully he didnt have too much power, or who knows what he would have done.

Yao Zi could only warn him about his indulgence from the side and told him not to go overboard. It was hard to say as for if he listened or not since his brother, Lin Xiao, that could control him was out shopping.

According to the servants reports, I have a general understanding of them sigh, how should I put it? I guess theyre just still too young. Thinking about their behavior, Abra nodded and looked helpless.

Yao Zi was kind, pure, and innocent, but she was careless and often made a lot of small mistakes, so no one could rely on someone like her even if she was strong.

As for Lin Tian, he was impatient and full of energy. Unlike his sister, he didnt make a lot of mistakes and would do his best in everything and seems reliable. However, he lacked a practical way of communicating with others and easily started conflicts, which was also unreliable.

They each had their own strong points and weak points, so Abra couldnt relax with them in the team and even had to find a way to help them quickly incorporate themselves, otherwise, they might even become a burden!

So, since you already know theyre not that reliable, yet youre still so relaxed like you already found a way to chase away those demonic beasts That means youre not just simply relying on the siblings, you must be hiding something else from us!

Heh, I really cant with you guys

Abra was amused by their serious demeanor and didnt continue hiding it.

Its your good friend, Lin Xiao.

Him? What does it have to do with him?

Caesar and Rosie looked at each other and was stupefied.

Abra was the one who looked down on him in the beginning so why was he mentioning Lin Xiaos name now?

That kid isnt normal. Abra lowered his voice and began explaining.

Abra didnt reveal the promise he made with Lin Xiao, but he was willing to share the details about the other things.

Actually, Abra sent people to observe the siblings and similarly sent people to observe Lin Xiao and got unexpected information!

I really cant read him

He was an experienced manager yet right now he couldnt even see through a brat. It was embarrassing just saying it.

During the day he also arranged a comfortable room, sumptuous food, and obedient attendants for the noble treatment. But strangely enough, all three of them were calm and indifferent, which Abra couldnt understand.

ShenDai Ying was a princess so she would be used to it and was understandable, but Lin Xiao and Elena were commoners not too different from the siblings, so how were they so calm?

Could it be that they had no desires?

Stop joking, it wasnt like they were eighty-years-old, they were just two kids, how could they not react at all?

Of course, Abra just couldnt guess that as for these two children, one was an advanced seventh-level magician, the other was a demon king. They just didnt really care about the noble treatment.

They went shopping in the afternoon and I sent people to follow them Caesar, guess what I found out?
