Picked up a Demon King to be a Maid

Chapter 486: Reverse Roles



Chapter 486: Reverse Roles

Lin Xiao never expected everything to go smoothly and that he would get what he needed just by asking for it.

Then where should I find Deborah?

On the west side of the city, theres a small village near the plague zone, theres a large supply stop there and shes the manager and wont leave anytime soon, so you can find her there.

I see! Lin Xiao nodded and realized that he thankfully asked Claire beforehand, otherwise, if he foolishly went to the frontlines, he would have been pissed!

But, Deborah was Barretts friend? Lin Xiao shivered as he recalled that grand marshall that was annoying to deal with.

One Barrett was already enough to deal with, his friend Deborah probably wouldnt be much easier to deal with.

But no matter how hard she is to deal with, she wouldnt be able to beat Lin Xiao. Lin Xiao wasnt scared of anything but troublesome things. Anyways, since Lin Xiao already got what he wanted, he turned to leave after thanking Claire.

But when he was leaving, Claire suddenly stopped him!

W-wait!

Tsk do you still need something? He thought that Claire was trying to retain him or wanted to go as well, so he was a bit impatient and wanted to reject her, but this time he underestimated Claire. She wasnt the type to pester, plus she still had business to deal with and couldnt be like ShenDai Ying and act like a maid, so she chose to give up and use another method.

Lin Xiao here, take this!

This is?

Lin Xiao turned and handed him a small and strange plate. It was an intricately crafted round plate made of gold and it felt quite heavy in his hands. Other than the beautiful engravings, there was even a lifelike dragon carved on it! Even though the plate was small and there was limited space, that dragon aura was still impressive and it was like it was coming to life, it was obviously made by an experienced craftsman.

With Lin Xiaos knowledge, it was already impressive he could notice so much.

If he had better judgment, he would realize it wasnt just made from gold, but it was another type of special gold ore that was extremely rare and limited in quantity. Although it had the same physical properties as gold, it had the effect of warming the body and nourishing the mind. This place may be small, but it was priceless and wasnt something that you just gave away.

Additionally if Lin Xiao was paying enough attention, there were actually a lot of dragons like the one on the plate all around them, because it wasnt just a normal dragon, it was the George familys crest!

This plate also had a cool name, Gothams dragon! It represented the absolute authority of the royal family. Anyone possessing such a plate can enjoy all the authority of royalty, other than politics, they will be treated like they were the king themselves.

But how would Lin Xiao know anything about it? He played around with the small plate and didnt notice anything special. The plate just felt warm and comfortable to the touch but he didnt know it was because of its warming properties.

This thing is beautiful is it some gold status plate?

Claire realized he didnt recognize the plate so she didnt say much and briefly explained it, Lin Xiao, as long as you take this to Deborah, shell help you.

Oh? Does she recognize this?

Yeah, not just her, all the other officials will recognize it as well. If you ever get into trouble in Gotham Kingdom, as long as you show this, theyll help you. But hehe, never mind. Claire suddenly thought of something but didnt continue speaking.

What she wanted to say was, If you actually showed this plate, those people would probably be shocked!

After all, no one would expect a normal-looking boy like Lin Xiao to be labeled as Gothams dragon.

Tsk, tsk, the other officials too? Is this plate that impressive?

Even though Claire never explained it, Lin Xiao could now tell how precious this plate was.

Hehe, its okay, anyways take good care of it and definitely dont lose it.

Uh, although I dont know what this is, it feels like something amazing are you sure you want to give something this important to me?

According to their familys ancestral teachings, only a hero that saves their family from extinction and alike could receive this plate! So in the past hundred of years, the number they have given out was countable in one hand, and now Lin Xiao was one of them!

If Claire was a man, then there would be no woman she couldnt get. Others confess with flowers, gifts, and jewelry, but her? She gave the person she likes a gold plate worth an entire city!

Who knows how Lin Xiao would react if he knew the truth. But.. he didnt plan on accepting this plate anyways. It may be convenient, but it was too precious and if he owed them this much then he may just have to give himself to them and he didnt want to marry into the George family.

Forget it, I dont want this, take it back.

Lin Xiao shook his head and tried to give it back, but Claire was determined to give it to him, no matter what excuses Lin Xiao tried to make. She even used the words Lin Xiao had once said against him.

Lin Xiao, you said that you were just helping me in passing, and told me not to mind okay then, Im also just helping you in passing! Its just a plate, whats the big deal, why are you so concerned?

Uh you sure learn fast.

Thats right, Lin Xiao rejected Claires confession like this a couple of days ago.

Hehe, do I?? But a student learns fast because they have a good teacher! Isnt that right, teacher Lin?

Lin Xiao sighed and couldnt convince Claire, so he reluctantly accepted the plate.

Then Im going?

Hm, okay but Lin Xiao, remember, come to me whenever you need, as long as Im alive, youll always be Gotham Kingdoms friend, and my doors will always be open to you!

Uh, thank you

Faced with Claires passionate promise, Lin Xiao felt like she was the male lead and he was the female lead that was being conquered

Anyway, Lin Xiao was in a good mood. He could effortlessly complete his mission and find the Sacred Crystal Fruit, so being the female lead was fine. And being chased by Claire was a happy thing, because being the queens pretty boy allowed him to live the life he always wanted! But even though it was right there in front of him and he could become Claires husband with a nod, he couldnt.

It was just that contradictory. The youth that once always kept to himself actually rejected the lifestyle of just eating and lazing around, and his reason was probably because of those two. Although they were troublesome, but he enjoyed it, right?

Sigh, they always say dont forget your beginning but what was my beginning?

Lin Xiao bid farewell to Claire and took the golden plate to prepare to take the other two toward their next stop. The large supply stop to the west the sacred crystal fruit that symbolizes the end and victory was waiting there for him!
