Picked up a Demon King to be a Maid

Chapter 585: Deciding For You

Damn brat, die!

After breaking through the wall, the seventh-level warrior, the head of the royal guards, raised his axe and jumped towards the kid to complete the kings orders!

But in that instant, he heard the king yell,

Stop! It was a mistake! A mistake!!!

What? A mistake!?

How would he dare continue his attack after the kings order? So he wanted to stop, but he already leaped up, so how could he stop in midair?

But there was no choice, if the king wanted him to stop, then he had to stop! He could only shift the axe that was aiming at Lin Xiaos head to the side.

Because it was too sudden, it was difficult to move too much, even if Lin Xiaos head wouldnt be split open, he would lose an arm!

Ah, what should he do!?

Kid! What are you standing there for!? Defend or avoid it, hurry up and do something!

He saw that Lin Xiao still wasnt doing anything and was just standing there watching him. It was over!

Please move!

The captain was praying while Lin Xiao shut his eyes.

Did he shut his eyes to die?

No, he just didnt want to see the captains distorted expression.

It was an instant, but the maid behind Lin Xiao gently pulled him back. She didnt use much strength and it just shifted Lin Xiaos body by a small distance to avoid the fatal strike.

He avoided it? How???

The captain stared at Lin Xiao in shock like he was looking at a monster. He never would have thought that with Elenas radar, Lin Xiao has already stepped into the realm of a grand magician and these normal attacks were nothing to him.

Although Lin Xiao wasnt hurt, but the captain himself suffered. Due to his large size and the heavy armor he was wearing, he created a large hole in the ground as he crashed down.

It wasnt just him that fell, the rest of them werent in any better shape.

Everyone rushed in ready to fight, but the people in the front who heard the king stopped immediately, while the people behind who couldnt hear clearly still continued to rush in and they all collided into each other.

Move forward idiot, why did you stop?

Move my ass, the king told us to stop!

But Im already moving, if you dont move ah!

W-what are you doing? Ah! M-my ass!

The room turned into a mess as they all crashed against each other. The sixteen royal guards turned into clowns as they slipped and slid around each other without any enemies. Then they all groaned while lying embarrassingly on the ground.

Puh is this some kind of comedy show? Well I admit it was pretty amusing.

Lin Xiao felt the axe that barely skimmed him and the defeated group of royal guards and held his mouth while snickering.

They were able to knock themselves out without even fighting, wasnt that hilarious?

Though that may not have been a bad thing, if they forced Lin Xiao to act, then they might not just be simply laying down on the ground while groaning

Sigh, you useless

George didnt know whether to laugh or cry and didnt know whatever he should rebuke or praise them.

The good news was that they were able to stop in time and didnt hurt Lin Xiao, but the bad news was that

Because they appeared Georges plan was exposed! He had thought that he could just vehemently deny it, but now, he couldnt explain his way out of it!

So father, is there anything else youd like to say? Oh, I know, you must want to explain that they arent your people, and theyre assassins that are unrelated to you, right?

Well uh, I

Not answering? Then Ill take that as a yes

Claire smiled and picked up the large axe and had killing intent.

George suddenly had a bad feeling.

W-what are you doing?

Dont worry father, since theyre assassins, then Ill help you kill them.

Ah? Y-you

How dare they barge into the kings private quarters unforgivable!

Claire raised the axe high above the captain and stepped on his chest while preparing to swing.

Claire, no!!!

King George couldnt help but cry out to stop her.

Okay, it was me I set up the ambush! Theyre innocent! Let them go!

Oh? Is that so

Swoosh!

The axe swung down and stopped just before the captains neck, and he almost passed out from the intense pressure.

Since the king pleaded for you, then forget it so, scram!

Thank you princess, thank you! Well scram right away!

The captain almost cried out as he endured the pain and wobbled up. He bowed in apology and beckoned his comrades to retreat. He brushed by Lin Xiao as he left and Lin Xiao patted his shoulder while comforting him, Sorry, you sure dont have it easy.

He was supposed to kill Lin Xiao and it ended up turning around on him, and in the end it was Lin Xiao who comforted him!

So Lin Xiao was a good person and the king was a bad person!

Sigh since its come to this, let me just speak honestly.

After everyone else left, the atmosphere in the room became more and more heavy. Seeing as he couldnt avoid it, George could only sigh and then spoke the truth.

Thats right, I wanted to kill Lin Xiao! I cant trust a kid that came out of nowhere, and you like him so much so it would be easy for him to trick you, so I wanted to deal with him for you!

But how do you know hell trick me? Even if he will eventually, then it wont be too late for you to kill him then! You cant punish someone before theyre guilty, thats not what a king should do!

Good! Very good! Youve grown a lot.

George laughed out loud, but he quickly shook his head and responded, But I didnt do this as a king, but as a father.

W-what do you mean?

I didnt want to tell you but I only have a month left.

What? A month?

Yes, they said I can live for at most a month more, so I wont last to the day when he tricks you, so I could only get rid of him in advance to reduce the risk so, can you understand me?

Father you!?

Hehe, dont feel bad that may be the case, but I realize that my concerns were necessary!

George didnt want to see Claire sad, so he laughed and spoke of happy things.

Today, let your father decide something for you!
