Chapter 245 – Foolish Maid, Bad Woman (1/2)
Once again, Lin Xiao deceived everyone with his story.
His trick was to not straight out confess everything, but also not completely fabricate everything either. He didn’t cover up the truth with falsehoods, instead, he put a certain spin onto what had actually happened.
Did he lie? No, Yao Zi did indeed have the Wizard’s bloodline. This came from Elena so it was a sure thing, even the Demon King herself ascertained it so how could it be false?
Not just that, but Woos was a knowledgeable grand magician, so he obviously made his own judgment as well. The fact that the magic power was completely drained and the strong monsters were blown to bits provided sufficient proof of the existence of the Wizard’s bloodline, so Woos finally believed Lin Xiao.
But was everything Lin Xiao said the truth? Not really.
It’s true that Yao Zi possessed the Wizard’s bloodline, but defeating the Lesser Devils was false.
Yao Zi only finished off the three Lesser Devils that fell behind, but the magic explosions outside the remains wasn’t her work, it was the traces left behind by Lin Xiao.
So, Lin Xiao used a half true story to successfully lower his presence and pushed the useless deed of ‘being the hero that defeated the Lesser Devils’ onto Yao Zi to avoid needless inconvenience.
The only thing was that all their points was taken by that stinking brat, and Loran Academy’s crystal already shattered.
But speaking of that, can they really choose a winner this time around?
Not necessarily, in his opinion.
Prince Charles encountering an assassin, the Silver Vault becoming Anderson’s experimentation grounds with terrifying monsters suddenly interrupting the competition. This might even lead to a strife between Heino Kingdom and the Holy Light Church, if this fuse was lit between these two sides, then who knows what will happen.
Of course, Lin Xiao cared about none of that. For him, he would want to avoid wars as much as possible, especially power struggles. He just wanted an ordinary life.
He didn’t want to become famous, he didn’t want to go on adventures and take risks, he just wanted to peacefully live his life.
“Phew, I can’t believe that I would have the fortune to see someone with the Wizard’s bloodline before I died. Bamboo Academy huh…. I really underestimated them.”
Woos sighed, either lamenting the excellence of the youth or depressed at his deteriorating age.
After clarifying everything, Woos didn’t bother Lin Xiao anymore and ordered someone to take them out of the cave and head back for treatment.
Before they left, Lin Xiao suddenly strongly resisted.
Lin Xiao never would have imagined those words coming out of someone as stiff as Woos. Hearing it made Lin Xiao’s scalp tingle, Elena was in an even worse state and shrank behind Lin Xiao, clenching her teeth.
It wasn’t really Woos’s fault for thinking like that, since this master-servant pair’s appearance caused too many misunderstandings.
The usual impression Elena gave off was elegant, like an ice-cold goddess, but now, she was actually shrinking behind Lin Xiao all cute and helpless. Even though her expression was still cold, her evasive gaze and flushed cheeks turned her into a clingy maid.
Not only that, what really gave Woos the wrong idea was what they were wearing.
Now, Lin Xiao only had a thin shirt on and Elena wasn’t wearing her original beautiful maid outfit and was covered with Lin Xiao’s jacket.
Furthermore, Elena’s thin bra was also very low, it was clear she was trying to seduce Lin Xiao.
So, whether they were doing something or not before everyone came, it was too embarrassing for Woos to say, so he just touched on it and left it, as long as everyone knew.
“Uh… y-you’re mistaken.” Lin Xiao quickly saw through what Woos was thinking, but it wasn’t easy to refute so he quickly got back to topic, “Teacher Woos, before going back, I still have to go back to find someone.”
“Find someone? Who?”
“Shen DaiYing.”
After saying that, Lin Xiao’s voice quivered slightly. His heart ached, but he didn’t show it and continued to pretend to be relaxed.
But Elena who was holding his arm could feel his inner struggle.
“Oh! Right, now that you mention it, why isn’t she with you guys?”
“Because…”
Faced with that question, Lin Xiao scratched his head, and said that they were attacked by another team when they left and accidentally got separated so they had to find her.
Searching for Shen DaiYing was important, so Woos immediately formed a search and rescue team. But Lin Xiao and Elena acted independently and sneaked away while everyone was getting prepared.
Although it took a while, but Lin Xiao believed that Shen DaiYing was still waiting for him there!
So he had to quickly get back!
