Picked up a Demon King to be a Maid

Chapter 389: Humans Aren’t Content Creatures

What? What did you find out? Tell me!

Elena was getting impatient when Lin Xiao purposely kept hesitating.

Its just a guess but could Adele be the source of infection? You could say that your aunt is the mother? Lin Xiao scratched his head and was evidently embarrassed.

His guess was that the enlightened society invented a new poison that could be the plague and Adele was the first sacrifice. After all, no one knows what happened to her during the time she was caught, so she could be the mother of the virus and as a high-level demon she spread it to demonic beasts and the demonic beasts did evil all over Gotham Kingdom and spread it to the humans which caused such a formation of a widespread plague area.

Hows that for reasoning?

Elena didnt say anything and looked at him like he was an idiot.

Elena knew he was joking, with how smart he is, he wouldnt say those bullshit theories, but Elena also knew that he wasnt just blurting out nonsense.

Lin Xiao was using a casual way to hint to her the bad news that this plague might not be just a simple disease, but it more likely has something to do with black magic!

The symptoms were madness and festering wounds just like when Adele was affected by black magic, there was no way they were unrelated!

If it was just simply a strong enemy they wouldnt have to worry but they knew nothing about black magic, if something happened they could only use Elenas demon king power to forcibly get rid of it, it might work well, but they didnt know the side effects and there was a risk. Adele was a good example, although the black magic was removed but she was still unconscious and didnt know when she would wake up and they could only wait for Snows treatment.

Having said that, they werent unbeatable. The enlightened would never expect the demon king to be lurking in the shadows. They thought their plan was seamless, but they never considered Elena as a variable.

Oh no, not just Elena, but another youth that no one had any expectations for but was repeatedly causing miracles. With the two of them, they can turn any seemingly perfect plan into a joke.

The sun was gradually setting and it was already evening and the closer they got to Yellowstone the more energetic they became. They were all ready for the upcoming battle, if anyone was halfhearted it would be ShenDai Ying.

She has been extremely satisfied with the trip so far and was happy she could openly travel with him. Also, the mission she got this time was just simple surveillance, there were no risks and she didnt have to kill anyone, just occasional exchange of information with Xiao Hua speaking of which, Xiao Hua has been acting strange lately, and she suspected that Xiao Hua was communicating with someone else. Aside from that everything else has been peaceful and ShenDai Ying was satisfied.

But humans arent animals that know how to be content.

Being together with Lin Xiao every day, ShenDai Ying has gotten a deeper understanding of him and become more and more attracted to his personality and attitude that were different than others. At the same time, it was clear that Lin Xiao didnt just belong to her and she may never completely possess him.

Not just that, it might be the complete opposite and she may even be completely pushed away from him.

What kind of secret do they have between them?

During the trip, she always saw Lin Xiao and Elena secretly chatting. It didnt seem like they were flirting, rather more like comrades in arms that trusted one another and discussed their battles.

Was it fine because they werent flirting?

No, ShenDai Ying would rather them flirt, that way, she could at least gather the courage to destroy that sweet atmosphere and then seduce Lin Xiao and replace Elenas existence!

But she didnt dare do that now.

Lin Xiao and Elena had some secret between them that they couldnt tell anyone, not even ShenDai Ying. She was like an excluded outsider, perhaps to Lin Xiao she was always considered an outsider, and only Elena was considered as someone on his side.

As an outsider, how could she interrupt their secret conversation? She couldnt even go and ask what they were talking about because she was afraid of being coldly rejected by Lin Xiao, and if that happened, she might not even be able to be an intimate outsider.

Sigh, what am I thinking about

ShenDai Ying didnt want to be an annoying woman, even if she wanted more but she shouldnt take it out on others, that will only push Lin Xiao further away from herself.

So she chose to take the initiative.

When they finally arrived at the outskirts of Yellowstone, they prepared to rest for a while and reorganize themselves before entering the town and searching for people.

They didnt have much more time they could waste, they originally planned to begin the search the next morning after the sun came out but after Lin Xiao and Elena discussed they agreed that they couldnt wait any longer and had to begin searching immediately!

No one disobeyed Lin Xiaos orders, but Tom felt strange towards Elena.

From the day he joined the team he noticed that Elena didnt act like a maid at all. Other than clumsily doing some odd work she didnt do much, even all the meals were made by ShenDai Ying and all she did was eat and put on a cold expression.

Elena was just like the second-in-command. He felt like Lin Xiao respected his maid, even though they were always bickering but Tom was a thirty-something adult that could tell their relationship wasnt normal!

If they werent in a master-servant relationship, but a couple, that would explain it!

Tom found the answer, but after thinking about it, it didnt feel right.

If they were a couple, then what about her?

The her Tom was referring to was naturally that gentle and charming older sister, ShenDai Ying.

ShenDai Ying was resolved to take the initiative!

When she saw Lin Xiao and Elena whispering to each other again to the side, ShenDai Ying walked towards them.

Hey, what are you guys talking about?
