Volume 1 Chapter 6

Starved, injured, and also hit with the demon sealing boundary. If it was anyone else, I’m afraid they would have been long dead, the only reason Elena could survive until now was due to her relying on her powerful physique as a red-eyed black cat.

“That, actually, I haven’t eaten anything…” Elena swallowed and attempted to get a chicken leg for herself. But that Lin Xiao didn’t feel an ounce of conscientious and only took care of himself.

Out of self-respect, Elena swallowed her words. How could she, as a demon king, deign and ask the lowly humans for food?

Elena clenched her teeth and simply turned her head and looked away. She wouldn’t be bothered as long as she couldn’t see. She continued to answer the other person’s questions: “I haven’t partic.i.p.ated in the war with mankind. I am not interested in killing mankind to conquer the world nor do I hate mankind.”

“A moderate faction demon king?” Lin Xiao was still chewing meat while talking.

The other person’s skeptical tone made Elena very uncomfortable. She asked: “Do you humans have hatred for ants?”

“Of course not… Oh, I understand.” Lin Xiao immediately comprehended.

From Elena’s perspective, mankind, including Lin Xiao, is a group of lowly and arrogant ants. Elena naturally has no hatred for ants.

As expected of a demon king, the level is really high.

Lin Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and then immediately asked, “Then, demon king, do you hate me?”

“If all of this is your plot, I will definitely kill you. If not, then no.” Elena answered calmly.

As of now, she had a good impression of Lin Xiao. He didn’t shout about chopping off her head, he didn’t do anything strange to her, and he even kindly proposed to send her back to the Forest of the End. This even moved her, though just by a tiny sliver.

Why is Lin Xiao so nice to her? Elena didn’t understand. Is Lin Xiao afraid of her? But that made no sense, she clearly already has no power.

In fact, Elena had guessed correctly, Lin Xiao did indeed feel a little bit scared of her. Yesterday’s terrible destructive power of that giant black cat was still hovering in Lin Xiao’s mind. With his current strength, it is absolutely impossible to confront it.

Even if the slave contract was signed and she was. .h.i.t by the demon sealing boundary, Lin Xiao still dared not relax his vigilance.

The demon sealing boundary wasn’t an omnipotent spirit ball, it is impossible to perfectly seal the power of the demon king. Who knows what kind of tricks Elena is still hiding up her sleeves. Taking her in was tantamount to strapping on a ticking time bomb. Even the double insurance of the demon sealing boundary and the slave contract cannot ensure his safety.

In front of the demon king, Lin Xiao was just a weak human being. He only had one life so he couldn’t afford any mishaps.

“Oh… but I have a feeling that you still doubt me?” Lin Xiao continued to cautiously seek proof.

“Yes, I do doubt you.”

“But before finding out the truth, Demon King, you won’t act recklessly, right? You won’t try and get rid of me while I’m asleep, right?”

“If I killed you, I’ll also suffer from soul rebound and die. Currently, I have no reason to take myself down with you.” Elena gave her own answer.

As for her answer, Lin Xiao didn’t know whether he should be happy or not.

In other words, Elena is currently unwilling to die with him, but if Elena someday finds a reason to, will she not hesitate to die with him?

It’s a bit scary to think about… But who can predict the future? Maybe in the future, Elena would willingly become his maid.

“Yeah, it seems that we have reached a consensus.” Lin Xiao finished all the porridge in the bowl, his face br.i.m.m.i.n.g with a satisfied smile. He was no longer worried about groundless fears and switched to a more relaxed topic, “That being said, you demons are quite reasonable and easy to communicate with.”

“…” Elena was surprised and didn’t know what to say. She faintly felt that the other party was implying that they were unreasonable stupid people.

“And the human common language, it’s very fluent and the sound of it is also very nice!” Lin Xiao sincerely exclaimed in admiration.

Elena’s clear voice was intoxicating, that cold, prideful, but sweet and exquisite feeling left people unable to forget it.

My ears are pregnant — this is what it’ll probably feel like.

“My voice sounds good?” Elena had a feeling of being looked down on. She couldn’t help but frown and scowl. “Many demons can speak the human common language. It’s you humans, who know nothing about the demon language.”

“He he, that’s unavoidable.” Lin Xiao continued to ask nonchalantly. “Demon King, what do you usually eat? Do you eat live humans? Or do you eat other wild beasts or magic bests? If you eat living people, that’ll be a bit difficult to do.”

“…” Elena slanted her eyes and looked at him as if she was looking at someone mentally impaired. “The habits of high-level demons are similar to those of humans, they just have a larger appet.i.te. We can eat whatever you can eat.”

“Oh, okay……”

Lin Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and then immediately asked.

“So, can you read? Can you count? Can you draw? Can…”

“Hey, enough!” Elena’s head started to hurt from all the consecutive stupid questions he was asking!

Just now she had thought that Lin Xiao was a good person, but now, any favorable impression she had for Lin Xiao has all but disappeared.

"Human, you seem to have misunderstood demons!" she retorted, remarking, "Us high-level demons have higher levels of intelligence than you humans, we’re not as uncivilized as you think. And to think that you’re a student at Loran Academy. Haven’t you read the book ‘The Study of the Demon King’s Personality and Power Level’?

“Oh… I’m asking because I’ve read that book. The book says you are a murderous monster.” Lin Xiao said innocently.

"What!?" Elena's eyes widened in disbelief, and her big b.r.e.a.s.t.s trembled. "I hate being called a monster by other people! You lowly human, how dare you humiliate me?"

“Heh heh, don’t be offended. The book is filled with brainwas.h.i.+ng lies. I was just kidding, I don’t actually believe it.” Lin Xiao waved his and picked up a chicken leg from the plate and handed it over. “Come on, you’re hungry, right? Come eat some.”

“I’m not eating!” Elena glared and protested against Lin Xiao’s humiliation.

Of course, there was nothing scary about the cuteness of her glare.

“You’re really not eating?”

Elena still had a fierce face, suppressed her hunger and said. “You, are you really treating me like a slave? Don’t forget your place. I am the king of the demons! I don’t need your charity!”

“Un, that’s good, you have backbone!” Lin Xiao nodded and said, “But are you going to eat or not?”

“…” Elena coldly snorted, “I’ll eat!”

“Hey, it’s not good if you don’t eat. If you starve to death, I also… eh? What did you just say?”

Not waiting for Lin Xiao to respond, the Elena who earlier still had a stubborn face suddenly reached out and s.n.a.t.c.hed the chicken legs from Lin Xiao’s hands with lightning speed, and then started to gorge.

The wise demon king knows better than to fight when the odds are against her. Elena silently made up her mind that one day she would find her place and let this lowly human know how powerful she was!

“…” Lin Xiao was speechless.

Unexpectedly, the n.o.ble and elegant demon king was actually hypocritical, and s.n.a.t.c.hed something to eat from "lowly humans". Lin Xiao didn’t know where to start. Anyways, it’s better to eat chicken legs than live humans.

Lin Xiao bitterly laughed and continued his “interrogation.”

“Let’s get down to business demon king, you really don’t know anything about being stuffed into a box, delivering it to my house and signing a slave contract?”

“I don’t.”

Nomu Nomu… the chewing sounds were a little loud.

"What about any other clues? For example, where were you before being put into the box? What did you do and who did you meet?" Lin Xiao asked.

“I…” it seemed like Elena was about to say something, but she suddenly stopped.

It was like she wanted to swallow those words along with the chicken meat down into the stomach, she swallowed the food in her mouth and tossed away the bone. Then three words came out of her mouth: “I don’t know.”

“You really don’t know?” it’s like Lin Xiao met a child who didn’t know how to lie.

“I really don’t know.”

“That’s strange, how could you not know? Did you lose your memory?”

“Amnesia? Well, it’s possible.”

Elena didn’t want to proceed on this topic. While Xiao Lin wasn’t paying attention she grabbed another chicken leg from the plate and started forcefully gnawing on it.

“Hey! That was the last one. I, I’m not full yet!”

Nom Nom, only the sound of a chicken leg being chewed responded.

Lin Xiao couldn’t believe that the woman eating before him without any table manners had earlier been a.s.sessed by him as elegant and refined… isn’t this contrast too great?

He was slightly agitated.

He picked up a demon king that s.n.a.t.c.hes his food and hangs onto him refusing to leave. Her food intake is also pretty big and she has a stomach full of secrets. Her danger index is 10 stars, what should he do?

“I skipped cla.s.s today so I have to go to school tomorrow.”

What should I do tomorrow? Don’t tell me I have to leave Elena at home by herself? Although she lost her strength, it was still too dangerous, what if she…

“~Burp, human, are you going to school tomorrow?” after eating, Elena belched, and she was still licking her fingers as if she hadn’t had enough.

“Well, at that time just obediently stay at home. I’m thinking about whether I should tie you up!”

Yes, I’ll tie her up! “The demon king’s rope bondage sacrifice”.avi… Lin Xiao thought that this method wasn’t bad.

“No, I’ll go together with you to school.” Elena shattered Lin Xiao’s vulgar fantasies.

“What did you say? Are you sick?”

“Did you forget? I am your slave so I must be with my master, otherwise, I will…”

Otherwise, slaves will suffer rebound on their souls and die because they are too far away from their masters.

“Tsk, I know, I know… I almost forgot again. Sigh… I’ll take you along.” Lin Xiao suspected that he was dreaming.

He actually had to go to school together with the demon king. Isn’t this h.e.l.l? Is his happy life of eating and waiting for death going to end like this?

At that moment, Lin Xiao thought of running under the sunset one day. It was his pa.s.sing youth…

If he wanted to bring Elena to school together, she definitely can’t be set up as a transfer student. After all, it’s impossible for Elena to pa.s.s the exam. Lin Xiao as a young traveler, didn’t have enough connections and resources so that the demon king can become a transfer student.

Unless —

“I have an idea!”

“What idea?”

“Demon King, are you willing to be my maid?”

“What…did you just say?”

Elena held her chest in her arms and looked vigilantly at the lecherous lowly human.
