Picked up a Demon King to be a Maid

Chapter 137: Respective Goddesses

The award ceremony ended the day before yesterday, along with the trophies, the intramural selection competition was officially over.

The champion was obviously Caesar. This handsome magic swordsman wielding the magic sword Dragon Slayer cut his way through his opponents, and lived up to expectations and became the champion and finally helped the magic department win one back.

But as for Caesars victory, the warrior department students werent that affected. After all, although Caesar was nominally a magic department student, half of him was a warrior.

Dont forget, hes a magic swordsman! Not only did he have magic power, but he also had battle aura, a mix between a magician and a warrior, even if he won the champion for the magic department, the warrior department students wont feel like they lost face, but rather they acknowledge Caesars strength!

Thats right, Caesar was the destined champion, the natural-born hero, no one would be against him winning the champion, but the runner-up was a bit strange, it was actually the eastern tribe from the magic department, Lin Xiao!?

After this competition, Lin Xiao was no longer the S-class muddler, he obtained a new nickname, Selected by the Gods.

He was no longer an unremarkable small fry, he officially walked into everyones radar, in a strange way.

So why that nickname?

First was, of course, his unbelievable luck!

Lin Xiao won the first and second round without fighting, other than the one with Shen DaiYing he never officially won.

Second was of course his innate gift with magic.

Just because he won without fighting, it didnot mean that he had no skill.

In the match with Shen DaiYing, he demonstrated extraordinary talent and skill, using both magic chaining and chantless instant cast to successfully defeat the princess.

Although he had no backbone and forfeited the finals, to see the new Saintess or whatever, no one ridiculed him, rather they believed that he knew his own limits well.

Since no matter how talented he was, he could never compete with Caesar, so it wasnt bad winning runner-up.

After the competition, the students were discussing a new idea, if Caesar was a natural-born hero, and was destined to become the hero, then Lin Xiao might be the best choice to become the reserve hero. Although hes not as outstanding, he would be the most suitable to become Caesars right-hand man.

Coincidentally, Lin Xiao also thought so.

What? You ask how could this happen?

Thats because he was the one who secretly spread this idea.

In order to achieve his dream of lazing off, he hasnt slacked at all.

One day, Loran Academy

The break was finally over, and Lin Xiao received a notice to go to school to discuss about the Academy Tournament.

That day, Lin Xiao unexpectedly didnt sleep in. He got up early and came to school with Elena, but he saw someone he rather didnt see.

Hey, Lin Xiao! Standing outside Teacher Wooss office, Caesar was unable to restrain his anger and bellowed at him.

Since they were the top two, they were both qualified to participate in the academy tournament, and thats why they met outside of Wooss office.

They were about to be comrades that are going to struggle together, but as soon as he saw that black-haired youth with his decadent expression, Caesar couldnt help but get angry.

From what he can remember, this was the first time they met after the competition.

Uh prince, why are you yelling? Did I do something wrong?

Lin Xiao didnt believe he did anything to Caesar.

Although he carried his fiancee away in front of the audience, Shen DaiYing already covered it up so it should be fine.

You, you! Lin Xiao, why did you forfeit? Caesar sternly asked.

As expected, it was because of that. Lin Xiao instantly put on an innocent expression, and used his prepared excuses.

Oh, it was because I went to see Saintess Snow do you not know? Shes a beautiful loli with a lot of fans, a lot of people want to bring her home as a wife.

Although he was saying that, he was thinking Hmph, theres no way I would hand over my sister to any of you!

Saintess? Caesar hesitated, but didnt drop the topic, Lin Xiao, Ive already waited half a year to fight with you! Yet you copped out at the last minute, do you still have any dignity?

Uh, waiting for me for half a year oh you so gay. Lin Xiao purposely put on an act.

He understood why Caesar was angry.

Around half a year ago, Caesar challenged Lin Xiao to a duel in front of their classmates, he thought it would be a large duel, but ended up falling for Lin Xiaos trap and was forced to give up the duel.

Although the duel was canceled, his goal remained the same. He wanted to compare himself to Lin Xiao, and this competition was the perfect opportunity.

But this damn Lin Xiao forfeited! Again!

The competitive Caesar couldnt understand Lin Xiao at all, he can only think that Lin Xiao is looking down on him, humiliating him!

Lin Xiao, do you think you can beat me with just magic chaining and chantless instant cast? Dont get carried away! Although you can defeat Shen DaiYing, you wont be able to defeat me!

Uh indeed I cant. Actually, I also wanted to fight you, but Saintess Snow was really beautiful, Im also her fan! So I could only forfeit to go see her!

Is she that beautiful? Also whats a fan?

Like idols, fan! Anyways, if you see her, youll also be captivated by her pure and holy appearance!

Hmph, if you dare, Ill poke your eyes out and give you a taste of eternal darkness.

Hmph, is that so

Lin Xiao kept using the Saintess as his excuse, so he couldnt find a reason to retort.

We live for the loli Saintess!

Whats wrong with liking lolis?

Considering the academy tournament thats soon to come, Caesar knew that he couldnt mess up their relationship too much since they are about to become teammates. If they cant work as one, how could they win?

Eileens 18th Annual Academy Tournament.

Winning was important to Caesar, that was a crucial step to becoming a hero. But it was not just for himself, it was more for Loran Academy, for the entire Lombard Kingdom!

The academy that wins will undoubtedly become the focus of many to nurture heros, a place young people longed for.

Last year, Loran Academy didnt even make it to the top three, if they couldnt make any distinguishable achievements, even if they are the oldest academy in Lombard Kingdom, even if the current hero is an alumni, they might still gradually fall behind.

Winning would not only help Loran Academy regain their former glory, but also more importantly bring a lot of benefits to Lombard Kingdom.

Because of the Four Kingdoms Alliance, there have not been any more large-scale conflicts between countries in Eileen, and so, it has gradually changed from comparing weapons and military to soft power and talents.

If Loran Academy won, Lombard Kingdoms position would also rise within the Four Kingdoms Assembly, and with that, it would bring resources and benefits that cant be explained in one or two sentences.

He had to work hard to make the country ric and powerful, although Caesar did intend for that, he wont use a noble reason as a pretense to hide his true purpose.

He wanted to use this competition as means to win over more speaking rights.

He needed power, an opportunity, a pair of wings that would give him freedom and allow him to soar through the skies.

Thus hes willing to risk his life to win, if he fails here, his hard work before would become a joke.

He has had enough of being ridiculed.

Lin Xiao, what are you doing?

Ah?

Lin Xiao thought that he had been convinced, but he once again bellowed, like he was going to eat someone.

Were going to compete, not play, why did you bring a maid? He pointed to that indifferent maid behind him and asked.

Caesar, when did you become a mom? Why are you so strict?

What?

Anyways, dont worry about it, I wont drag you down. I have a reason why I have to bring her along.

He had to bring Elena, how could he not?

Although theyve been having a cold war since Snow left, and havent spoken more than three words at a time. Lin Xiao feels uncomfortable to the point of losing sleep for several days, when he dreamed of Elena finally saying four words to him, he almost flipped out of bed due to joy.

Strange thing.

Lin Xiao shouldnt be a masochist, but he feels much more at ease when Elena scolds him and argues with him. Now that Elena listens to every word he says, obediently does the chores and is just not talking to him, he feels more agitated.

Teacher Woos, were here.

Lin Xiao shook his head to drive away his thoughts and then took the lead to push open the office door.

The sunlight shone in through the window, spilling through the door and blinding Lin Xiao.

He raised his hand to block the dazzling sunlight, squinted his eyes and saw two beautiful female figures inside the room.

With the sunlight as their backdrop, they looked as if they were Goddesses descending into the mortal realm, their graceful figures and beautiful complexions rocked ones minds.

Rosie?

Sister Ying?

Caesar and Lin Xiao each called out to their respective Goddesses.
