Chapter 286 – Lost it? Just Get a New One!

In the blink of an eye, the banquet was almost ending.

Elena walked out of the noisy banquet hall and stood in the long corridor. She leaned against the railing and looked at the setting sun in a daze.

There was no one around, Elena enjoyed the cool night wind. She didn’t mind the wind blowing her bangs and skirt around.

After leaving the noisy banquet and was finally alone, it felt much more relaxing.

Elena held the railing and leaned over it, relieving herself of the burden from her chest, and looked out.

There were several unique-looking trees planted in the garden, with a flowerbed with various colored flowers around it. Under the golden evening sunlight, it was peculiarly stunning. The lush green grass was sectioned off into squared by the paved road and made it appear to be tidy and elegant. There was also several beautiful fish swimming leisurely in the rectangular pond in the center.

The garden was extremely spacious, the milky white palace gates were engraved with an exquisite design. The stone pillars were designed with the utmost care, and it showed the majesty and authority of royalty.

Although this place wasn’t as overbearing as the demon palace, but within human society this was one of the top gardens, hundreds of times better than Lin Xiao’s place.

Speaking of it, fate really works in strange ways…

Who could have thought, that she, the Demon King’s daughter would become a human’s maid and follow her master to a banquet at the royal palace and was leaning against the railings and looking around by herself?

No one would believe it even if she said it.

“Sigh, what am I doing?”

Elena laughed at herself and helplessly shook her head.

She didn’t understand why she had to fight with Lin Xiao earlier, why did she say those things and force Lin Xiao to give her an answer?

Was it because she couldn’t bear to be humiliated?

That was the reason she gave, but after calming down, it didn’t feel right.

How many times has that pervert humiliated her? First, let’s not mention the physical humiliation, since that pervert loves her breasts and is always taking advantage of her so she’s gradually gotten used to it… so talking about mental humiliation.

Ever since meeting him, he’s never had a good attitude towards her, although there are times he’s gentle, but it’s mostly ridicule and verbal abuse, they’ve been in too many arguments too count. Vulgar words, teasing, threatening, Lin Xiao’s said much worse!

But this time… why did she get angry just this time?

“Am I being a little greedy…”

The reason she got angry was probably because she cared.

That was how she should act as the Demon King, but now… now, she was acting like a girl in puberty, feeling angry because of his irresponsible confession, what was that?

Even if it was a casually spoken shameless statement, why did she get angry?

If she really didn’t care, why did she force Lin Xiao to answer her?

Whether Lin Xiao was serious or not, what difference did it make to her?

Lin Xiao already said that he liked ShenDai Ying, yet she foolishly forced him to give a completely opposing answer, to get him to give him a lifetime promise, requesting him to not make her waste her feelings.

What was the point of doing that?

Didn’t that mean that she was already staring to care?

She didn’t want to be squeezed out by ShenDai Ying, she didn’t want to be just an accompaniment, and she didn’t want to be treated as just a beautiful maid by Lin Xiao. She cared about how he treated her, she cared about her position in Lin Xiao’s heart.

Does her caring mean that she already developed a certain indispensable affection for Lin Xiao…

“Heh, I really am an idiot, if it continues like this, I’m going to become a docile and obedient maid sooner or later.”

Elena snorted and chased away those unanswerable feelings. She cleared her mind and quietly enjoyed this beautiful scenery that belonged to her.

“Ohhhh!!!”

“Princess ShenDai Ying!!!”

Noisy voices erupted from the banquet hall, Elena was attracted to those sounds and curiously looked back, but just saw a crowd of people, and couldn’t see the shocking kiss in the center of the dance floor.

“No matter what happens, he must be happy as long as he can dance while embracing ShenDai Ying. Heh, men are truly simple.”

Even if she couldn’t see, Elena knew that those two were probably flirting and something enviable that caused the disturbance. But it had nothing to do with her, she was just a maid, no matter how big her chest was and how beautiful she was, she couldn’t compare to the flirty princess.

“Blarghhh!”

Just as Elena was letting her imagination run wild, she suddenly noticed two strange people in the garden, a man and woman. The man was prostrating on the ground and dry heaving, making an unpleasant noise. The woman was patting his back and chiding him.

What was strange was that according to Elena’s magic radar, that man had a strong aura, and seemed to be a ninth-level warrior!

What?

Ninth-level!?

“Enough! You like to smoke and I’ve never stopped you, since you’re addicted and it can’t be helped that you can’t use aura without smoking. But why can’t you quit drinking? Smoking and drinking, do you think your life is too long or something!?”

The woman pounded the man’s back, rather than helping him vomit, it was more like a punishment. Every fist carried a great amount of force, and the thuds would make one’s skin crawl.

It was getting dark, so Elena couldn’t see their appearance, but was shocked at their strength so she didn’t dare to make a sound and listening to their conversation.

“Greenton, you really are one of the most lamest hero! Getting dead drunk and vomiting in the royal palace, you’re hopeless!”

“Evelyn… Evelyn-chan, uh… you’re right, I really am useless… sigh…”

The man sighed and continued periodically dry heaving. That infuriated the woman and felt like she wanted to pound him to death.

“What are you sighing for? Didn’t you just lose a weapon? Just get a new one!”

“But that wasn’t a normal weapon, and there’s no other one to use… bleghh!”

“Peh! Isn’t it just a holy sword? Didn’t you fight just as well even before you had it? Pull yourself together!”

“Uh, but Evelyn, that’s a holy sword, a holy sword… blegghhhhh”

Seeing that he still wasn’t done retching, Evelyn didn’t bother with pounding him anymore and pointed at his nose while tearing into him.

“Greenton, teacher Woos was right back then, even if you got the title of the hero, you’ll still be a useless hoodlum, and would never become a true hero!”

“Evelyn…”

After listing to their quarrel, Elena finally figured out his identity and got chills.

Did she hear correctly?

That drunkard on the floor was the hero Greenton!?
