Chapter 231 – Reversal

Lin Xiao felt like he sinned in his past life and owed Elena.

He didn’t understand why he left Shen DaiYing behind and came to her.

Shen DaiYing is gentle and caring, and was even willing to give him her body, but Elena? She had a bad temper and had evil intentions, yet he was still possessed to leave Shen DaiYing behind and come to Elena…

For what?

What was more infuriating, is that he saved her, then finished off the enemies and then risked his life to save her again… and after all that, she didn’t even say thanks, she wasn’t even guilty and instead forced him to apologize to her?

Fuck, you’re not the Demon King, you’re the Devil, right?

Okay, since that’s the case, he might as entertain her.

There’s no better chance than now to reveal her true colors!

“Apologize? Peh! I, I refuse!”

He wouldn’t apologize even if he died! And he wouldn’t, that was just Elena’s one-sided misunderstanding. He was just in severe pain, to the extent of almost passing out.

“Oh, you have that much backbone?” Elena had a wicked smile and shook the bone.

The sharp bone slightly dug around within his body with a squelching sound that gave one the shivers.

“Ahhhhhhh!!!”

It hurts too fucking much!

Lin Xiao forehead was covered in cold sweat and his veins bulging as he screamed, it was like he could collapse at any time.

“How about now?” Elena stopped and smiled.

“I-I’m still not apologizing!” Lin Xiao stood his ground.

“Fine, then…”

“Wait… j-just wait a second!” Lin Xiao quickly stopped her as he watched her about to go in again.

“Oh? What, changed your mind? Okay, I’ll forgive you as long as you apologize!”

“Hehe, Elena, I’m curious… since you’re threatening me now, are you not afraid I’ll get back at you? At that time, I won’t let you off easily!”

“Oh? You’re right.” It seems she was persuaded by him as she nodded and she actually let her hand go.

Lin Xiao thought that she had changed her mind, and as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, his heart sped up again!

Did Elena give up?

Rather, she became more intense.

“Hey, hey! W-what are you doing?”

Lin Xiao suddenly realized that after she let go of her hand she placed both hands back on the bone like she was going to pull it out.

“Lin Xiao, that’s why as long as I kill you here, you won’t be able to get back at me, right?”

“W-what did you say!? Motherfucker…”

“Swearing won’t help you, apologize if you want to live! Otherwise, you’ll die!”

Elena brought out her most sinister and vicious expression, even more so than a certain Evil Queen from a fairy tale.

Lin Xiao was really going to die from anger!

When has he ever been treated like this?

What should he do? Beg for forgiveness?

If he didn’t, would she actually pull it out?

Probably, since he bullied her every day, and it’s a surprise that she could endure until now. They had no trust between them, and it was even less likely for her to spare him out of pity.

“I, I…”

Fatigue overwhelmed him and he felt like he couldn’t hold on much longer.

He just wanted to save her and fell into this sorry state, fate really likes to play with people… he couldn’t help but laugh at himself.

He left behind Shen DaiYing who entrusted her body and heart to him in exchange for a ruthless ending.

But… did he regret it?

No, Lin Xiao didn’t regret it.

Although he was just faking a serious injury right now, but even if Elena really killed him, he wouldn’t regret it.

He didn’t choose between the two of them on an impulse. Since he decided to leave Shen DaiYing behind, then that meant he already prepared himself.

This was his choice and he was willing to pay the price.

So he has no regrets!

“You’ve gotta be kidding me Elena, don’t get too cocky! Do you think you’re already in control of the situation? No!”

At this point, he relaxed and started unscrupulously mocking her.

“Let me tell you Elena, the person I like will always be Shen DaiYing, I hate conceited fools like you the most! But do you know why I saved you? … That’s because I like bullying you! I like seeing your shameful expressions, I just want you to be my maid!”

“Hah?”

Elena tilted her head and was angered by his confession in another sense.

“That’s right Elena, a maid as cute as you is too hard to come by, your sole existence is to be bullied by me! I left Sister Ying behind because I still want to bully you!”

Lin Xiao laughed like a mad man, his arrogant expression completely didn’t match his usual low profile. Just by the fact that he wasn’t yelling in pain from his bleeding wound, it was like he was someone else.

“Pervert, what did you say!?” Elena’s faced paled and clenched her teeth as she glared at Lin Xiao.

This bastard was still thinking about something this disgusting as he’s about to die? What a lost cause.

“Elena, pull it if you dare! But remember, as long as I’m still breathing, I’ll make you my maid! Then even if Snow removes the slave contract, I won’t let her take you from me!”

“You! You! You!” Elena was furious and her eyes were full of killing intent.

But Lin Xiao didn’t stop and continued on his road to death…

“Elena, you’re beautiful, arrogant, have a good figure, and stubborn… training a woman like you feels like such an accomplishment! Elena, I’ll be honest with you, regardless if Shen DaiYing is still willing to be my wife or not, you’ll be my maid for the rest of my life! … Remember that one day I’ll turn you into an obedient maid and willingly call me master!”

“Y-you!!!” Elena trembled with rage, and her low voice became colder and colder, “You incorrigible pervert! … Lin Xiao, since you saved me, I didn’t want to kill you and just wanted to scare you, but now… sorry, you brought this on yourself!”

“Hmph! You live as my maid, you die as my dead maid! … Elena, you’ll never escape!”

“Hehe, okay!”

Elena sneered then lowered her body and tightly gripped the bone and concentrated all her power on her arms.

“Be your maid for your entire life? Perhaps… but I’m afraid you’re going to have to wait for your next life.”

Elena clenched her teeth, shut her eyes, raised her chest and pulled out that bone with a shriek.

“As for this life… just die!”

Because she used too much strength, that thick bone slipped out of her hands and was flung into the distance behind her as she fell back.

“Ahhhhh!!!”

His miserable howl echoed through the forest.

Was it over?

Elena looked up at the sky while silently listening to the screams until it faded away to nothing before she came to her senses.

Was it over?

She laid on the soft grass and reached her arms out towards the sky and stared at her hands that were dyed red in a daze.

It seems Lin Xiao was all out.

Since it was such a thick bone that was suddenly ripped out, blood spurting was inevitable, and other things such as his intestines or excrement and other disgusting stuff could of came out as well. But Elena didn’t bother looking and didn’t want to confirm it, Lin Xiao was already dead to her.

What she hoped for was happening in front of her, yet it felt unreal and like a dream.

Drip, drip.

The limited light shone through the layers of leaves, through Elena’s fingers, and onto her expressionless face along with that viscous red fluid…

Drip, drip.

The red blood dyed her cheeks and slid down her eyes, along with her blood-red eyes, it painted her exquisitely beautiful face with apprehension.

It was over, everything was over.

Her laughable master servant relationship with Lin Xiao was finally over.

Now, there was no one who can claim to be her master, and jokingly tease her. She didn’t need to suffer and be bullied, and was finally free to do what she wanted.

“Phew…”

Elena remained still for a bit to recover some energy, then she staggered up.

Who knows if it was intentional or not, but when she stood up, she didn’t face Lin Xiao, like she was afraid of his existence appearing in her line of sight.

She adjusted her breath and pulled the jacket that couldn’t contain her breasts tighter, Lin Xiao’s jacket, and tried taking a step.

Yes, she was already fee, she wasn’t restrained by the contract to follow Lin Xiao all day.

But, where should she go from now on?

She stared into the silent forest and the craters made by the meteors and stopped.

The slight breeze blew a couple strands of her hair into her face and made her itch.

Elena took a deep breath and gently brushed away the annoying hair then silently stood there.

A maid that lost her master, a loser who was pulled off her throne.

Where should she go?
