Chapter 181 – Characteristic Maid

Xiao Hua understood the gist of what was going on by listening to their conversation.

She noticed that the woman called Jennifer looked like she ate something bad, and mumbled to her self with a dark expression. She then ran over to the teachers from Water Academy, got on a boat together and headed towards the island.

On the other hand, Woos and Momm were giddy with happiness, but they had to endure from laughing to maintain etiquette.

It seemed like Loran Academy unexpectedly defeated another strong team and obtained an impressive score.

Their victory must be because of miss… Xiao Hua naturally thought.

Usually, Shen DaiYing greatly suppressed her true strength, just by using her lowest level skill, she could easily defeat opponents of the same level.

If she used her true strength, then she’ll even instakill the arrogant prince Caesar, so Xiao Hua had no need to worry about Shen DaiYing.

What she was worried about was Shen DaiYing’s mission… there shouldn’t be any traps, right?

After a while, Jennifer and them finally came back along with four other people.

No, rather, four ice sculptures.

For some reason, the four Water Academy students became human popsicles. Their skin was suffered severe frostbite and their lives weren’t in danger, but they could only go home to recuperate.

Based on their injuries, there was a high possibility they met with the seventh-level magic ‘Snow storm’, but from what Xiao Hua gathered, the strongest in Loran Academy, Caesar was only a fifth-level magician. Rosie and Lin Xiao were incompetent, so who could cast seventh-level magic?

She continued to listen in but couldn’t understand what happened so she could only leave unwillingly.

The competition had nothing to do with her, she just had to ensure the miss’s safety. After that, she had to investigate the Holy Light Church!

Actually, they already talked it over with Anderson before coming here, this time’s assassination mission was supported by Anderson.

But a variable occurred, Saintess Snow.

Xiao Hua didn’t understand why that brat came.

Was their plan exposed?

Impossible. That blind Saintess was harboring suspicious but didn’t have any definitive evidence, and it seems like the reason she wanted to come with Anderson was to see Lin Xiao.

See Lin Xiao?

Xiao Hua didn’t understand how Lin Xiao was related to Saintess Snow… he already confessed to Shen DaiYing, yet he had an improper relationship with another woman behind her back, and it was even a young girl, how disgusting!

Hmph, there are no good men, thank goodness the miss rejected him! He doesn’t know his place, the miss is already too benevolent for willing to be his friend!

Xiao Hua unconsciously walked out of the camp and near where the Holy Light Church was stationed.

Although they were working together with Anderson, but they couldn’t trust him a hundred percent. Plus, Saintess Snow was also there, so Xiao Hua snuck in to gather information.

She hid outside the tent in the center of the camp, used the small knife she used to gather wild vegetables to make a small opening and then silently listened to the conversation inside.

“Archbishop!”

A sister walked in and reported to the fatty.

“Selina, how’s it coming?” Anderson asked.

“It’s done, all the ‘materials’ have been prepared, we are already starting to make it.” The sister called Selina respectfully replied.

She was around 25 years old, judging from her clothes, she was probably a higher level than a normal sister. She didn’t look special, perhaps only her deathly pale complexion was eye-catching.

A deathly pale complexion, like one who was about to die.

As for this woman, Xiao Hua was familiar with her.

From what she remembers, she was a sister from Heino Kingdom and was once under Devoru’s command, and was faithful to the Goddess just like him. Even though Devoru eventually left, she still remained and became the local bishop.

As a bishop, she was only half a rank lower than an Archbishop, she had no need to be so respectful towards Anderson, but her submissive posture showed that she was under his control.

Why?

“Hm, very good.” Anderson nodded his head in satisfaction at her report, then asked, “I already told you in detail what to do next… so, how long until its complete?”

“Yes, archbishop, this batch of ‘Lesser Devils’ will be done in three days, rest assured!” Her tone sounded natural, but her complexion made one feel like she could breathe her last breath at any time.

As for the lesser devils she mentioned, Xiao Hua merely blinked and listened on.

“In three days… that’s the day before the competition ends, there’s still time.” Anderson rubbed his fat stomach and fell into thought, “How’s the competition coming along?”

“Water Academy was just eliminated, Loran Academy, who defeated them is temporarily first, Heino Academy second.”

“They already fought this early? It’s definitely because of that Charles… as expected of the ‘Scarlet Fairy’.” Anderson smiled insincerely.

“Scarlet Fairy?”

Hearing that name, Xiao Hua unconsciously lifted the corner of her mouth.

By now, not many even know of that nickname, it has been long forgotten, who knew that Anderson still remembers… no, it was more like the people who remembered are all dead, when it’s mentioned again, who knows what kind of bloody scene will play out.

“Miss…”

Shen DaiYing’s smiling appearance appeared before her, the conversation in the tent still continued.

“Right Selina, you mentioned a maid that Loran Academy’s Lin Xiao brought… what’s with that?”

“She’s called Elena, his maid, her background is unclear, her strength… unknown.” Selina awkwardly responded.

Before waiting for Anderson to ask again, she quickly explained.

Selina told him about what happened when she took the magic test, about the crystal exploding and the color black appearing.

Hearing that, Anderson opened his eyes in disbelief.

“What does she look like?”

“She’s very beautiful, with a good figure… is that important?” Selina asked not understanding.

She didn’t think the Archbishop was a lecherous person, why did she care about a maid’s appearance?

“It’s important! Sigh, I’m not asking if she’s beautiful… I’m asking whether she has any special characteristics?” Anderson waved his hands around not knowing how to express himself.

“Characteristics?” Selina paused then replied in all seriousness, “Large breasts.”

“Hah? Large breasts?”

“Yes, she has an extremely good figure.” Selina noticed that the Archbishop still wasn’t pleased so she added on, “In the beginning, I suspected that she used something to pad herself, but then I noticed that she maintained perfect balance while walking, this meant that her figure was the result of natural development.”

“W-what are you talking about… cough, cough.” Anderson almost choked on his saliva, “Who asked you about that? I’m asking about her appearance, characteristics of her appearance!”

“Appearance?” Selina thought about it, her complexion getting even worse, “She’s a temperamental beauty, doesn’t like talking or smiling and… she has medium hair.”

“Right, right, hair, characteristics, like, color?” Finally getting to the point, Anderson continued to ask.

“Short, silver, pale skin, eyes, blood red…”

“Silver hair and red eyes!?”

Anderson almost leaped out of his chair.

“What’s wrong Archbishop? She is indeed silver-haired and red-eyed, probably some rare bloodline from the north.” Selina continued to explain not understanding the situation, “I heard that her entire family was killed and that Lin Xiao saved her so that’s why she follows him.”

“Hmph, really.” Anderson glanced at her then continued nervously pacing about within the tent, “No wonder the crystal exploded and black appeared…”

“Archbishop, I don’t understand.” Selina weakly asked.

“Hehe, you don’t know yet, right…” Anderson forced a smile and said like he was joking, “That Elena isn’t a human, she’s a high-level demon!”

“What?”

Selina widened her eyes in astonishment.

Maybe others didn’t know, but Anderson knew well. That strange silver hair and red eyes, the crystal absorbing energy outside of magic power and exploding, as well as the color black, with these couple of things, it proved that Elena wasn’t a human, but a high-level demon!

From what he knew, with the high-level demons, only the red-eyed black cats have that appearance after turning into human forms.

“Archbishop, what should we do?”

“Don’t worry, she’s not the biggest problem right now.” Anderson thought about it then calmed down.

Although it was unexpected for a high-level demon to become a maid for someone, as of now, she wasn’t a threat to their plans. On the contrary, Anderson felt like he could use Elena’s identity to set a trap.

What Anderson really had to be worried about, was someone else.

“Snow said that she wanted to visit your church in the afternoon?” Anderson asked.

“Yes, the church is in a village next to Despair Island Lake, she strongly insisted, I can’t stop her.”

“That witch, why can’t she just stop for a second?” Anderson angrily cursed out.

Ever since Snow came along with him, he could never let his guard down, even his originally flawless plan has become in peril. If she found anything, then everything would go down the drain!

“Wait… I have an idea!” Anderson clapped his stomach and laughed, “Take her to visit, let her visit to her desire! Then we’ll…”

“Yes, archbishop.”

Selina received her order then was preparing to turn and leave, but stopped.

The tent, someone cut an opening in it.
