Picked up a Demon King to be a Maid

The chosen one to stop the calamity…

If it wasn’t Greenton that said it, Woos might even think that this came from a preacher of an evil cult.

Weren’t the demons the enemy of mankind? Other than the Demon King, who else would want to exterminate the humans?

Taking a step back, even if there was a powerful enemy other than the Demon King, could the so-called chosen one stop the calamity by themselves?

This prophecy may be a bit too melodramatic… regardless whether it was Yao Zi, Lin Xiao, Caesar or whomever else, what can they do?

Greenton said that it wasn’t him, doesn’t that mean the chosen one is even stronger? But the problem is, no matter how strong those brats are, even if they had the Wizard’s bloodline, they may not be as strong as Greenton.

“The calamity, huh… cough, cough.” Woos stroked his gray beard and helplessly sighed.

The prophecy that Pope St.
George gave wasn’t complete, and it still needed more time to refine.
If could be a few days, or a few months, but the information now was still extremely limited and could only be used as reference.

Regardless, Eileen wasn’t something that could be destroyed just because you wanted to.
The calamity wouldn’t just come, and even if they looked for the chosen one, they won’t necessarily find them.

“Cough… Greenton, let’s talk about the prophecy later.
Were you late today?” Woos coughed and changed the subject.

“Oh, are you talking about the awards ceremony? I-I got held up with something, hehe.” Greenton scratched his head embarrassed.

“With what?” Woos asked curosily.

“Nothing.
Saintess Snow is going back to Winterless city, I met her before she left and asked her about the Lesser Devils.”

“What about it?”

“Venus Scoiety… you probably never heard of it before right, it’s also my first time hearing of it, is a secret society.
Snow will report it all to the pope when she gets back and investigate.” After he briefly talked about what happened, Greenton laughed and talked about a lighthearted topic, “Oh right, that Saintess is really beautiful! Have you seen her?”

“I have.
An outstanding child, but…”

“A bit dark.”

Woos bitterly smiled and nodded, silently agreeing.

Snow was indeed outstanding and appeared pure and innocent a natural Saintess, but even if she could hide it from others, she couldn’t from Greenton, or the almost dead old man.

“I really don’t know what she experienced.
Old man, I specially looked into her before, what do you think? She actually wasn’t born blind!”

“So what?”

“Don’t rush, I even found out that before joining the church, she was caught to be a slave and her parents suddenly died then, the culprit is still unknown.
I’m not clear on what happened next, I just know that she stayed with her brother… oh right, her eyes were injured at that time and she went blind.”

“Injured?”

Hearing that, Woos sighed and glanced at Greenton, sentimentally muttered.

“That child is just like you.”

“What are you talking about? I’m no match for her.
When I was her age, I was still stealing alcohol at bars and almost got my legs broken and probably would’ve died if it wasn’t for you.”

“Hmph, that’s old news, what are you still mentioning that for?” Woos snorted and pretended that he didn’t hear anything.

“Haha… but seriously speaking, I’m quite interested in Snow’s brother.
Brother Lin Xiao, brother Lin Xiao… heh, she kept repeating those words nonstop next to me.
Old man, that kid is your student, right? Is he strong? What kind of person can make Snow care so much about? Could he be even stronger than Caesar?”

Since Snow is so outstanding, her brother that she admires so much should be as well, Greenton didn’t believe that someone as clever as Snow would have a good for nothing brother.

“Cough… then I’m afraid you might be disappointed.”

Above average strength and mediocre aptitude, though Lin Xiao puts on a good act, has a good head, more calm than people his age, but he’s lazy to the bone.
A lack of ambition and was seen as useless by Caesar before.

“Hah? You’re not lying, right? I don’t believe you… call him over, I’ll interrogate him in person!”

“You’re out of luck, he just left.”

“Where?”

“He went to find Snow with his maid… you didn’t see him when you came?”

“No, we probably just missed each other… sigh, did he say what did he go to Snow for?”

“I think to say goodbye with his maid.”

“Maid? Goodbye?”

Greenton didn’t understand.
He had another mission so he couldn’t stay for long, so he had to leave interrogating Lin Xiao for another time.

He bid farewell to Woos and got up to leave.

When he left, he lifted a large blackish stone that was even bigger than himself… no, that wasn’t a stone, it was a wide and thick sword.

No matter how large Greenton was, the huge sword far surpassed him and was incongruous.

For whatever reason, the sword didn’t have a scabbard, and was wrapped in a thick black cloth and looked liked like a stone on the side of the road.
It was nothing like the hero’s dedicated weapon, or the legendary holy sword blessed by the goddess.

“Old man, I’m heading off, take care of your back when you get back! Don’t die too early, I’m too lazy to clean your grave!”

“Bastard… I’ll definitely live longer than you! Cough…”

Woos saw that man off while setting a serious flag until his huge sword disappeared below the horizon and the tobacco smell disappeared and then he slowly stood up.

Everyone had their own ways of saying goodbye, and each way was different to one another.

Perhaps this was Greenton’s way of saying goodbye to his former teacher.

What will Lin Xiao and his maid’s goodbye look like?

…

…

“Honorary Champions?”

Three youths were packing their stuff while chatting about the academy tournament that just concluded.

The teams heading back were either happy and making jokes, like Bamboo Academy, or depressed, like Water and Cato Academy.

Loran Academy was neither happy or sad, they were angry!

“Why are they the Champions and we’re just the honorary champions?”

Rosie was complaining nonstop inside the tent.

“On what grounds? Ah? Because of those idiot siblings? How are they stronger than us? Caesar alone can beat the four of them! I wont accept it, I’m going to ask them to a duel! If we win, they should hand over the champion title!”

“Ah, Rosie, calm down first.” Shen DaiYing grabbed her arm as she looked like she was about to rush out looking for a fight, “Even if they’re not as strong, but didn’t they save us? Even if we lost the points because we met those monsters, but everything ended well and we survived and didn’t lose much in the end!”

“Shen DaiYing, all you know how to do is pretend to be nice!”

When Rosie heard her, she became even more angry and attacked Shen DaiYing instead.

“I still haven’t asked… why did you leave with Lin Xiao? What did you two go do? Don’t try to bullshit me with some lousy excuse like you were ambushed!”

“Um… that…”

Shen DaiYing awkwardly pursed her lips and hesitated to answer.

“Since you don’t believe me… why don’t you ask Lin Xiao?”

“Hah? Don’t give me that crap! Don’t forget, you’re still Caesar’s fiancée, so stop messing around with that pervert all the time! You bitch, you…”

“Enough Rosie! Pack your things, we should get going!”

Caesar who was silent finally spoke.

“But! Hm…”

After being yelled out, Rosie didn’t dare make a fuss.
She glared at Shen DaiYing and then went back to her own stuff.

“Did anyone see Lin Xiao? Call him back, we’re going to be late if we don’t leave!” Caesar furrowed his brows at Shen DaiYing like he wanted to show his status as the fiancé.

“Him?” Shen DaiYing just realized Lin Xiao wasn’t there and looked towards Rosie for help.

“Hmph, don’t worry about him, he already left with his maid, saying he went to do… oh right, for a goodbye!”

“Goodbye? What goodbye?”

Was someone leaving?
