Chapter 153 – Descent Into Madness From Sadness Contract

The reason for the troubles was precisely because of Elena’s identity as a maid.

Although she already had Lin Xiao’s magic crystal, and didn’t need to follow Lin Xiao around 24/7, she still couldn’t go too far and once the magic was used up, she had to go back and refill it.

So this time she wasn’t just an accompanying maid, she had to follow Lin Xiao to Despair Island and participate, otherwise if she was left alone, she would suffer once the magic crystal depleted.

The problem was, could a maid participate

Although the rules didn’t prohibit anyone from bringing a servant, who would do something like that

If the servant was an ordinary person that didn’t know magic or battle skills, then they would just be a burden.

With the existence of a hindrance, one would undoubtedly not perform as well in the competition.

Conversely, if the servant was strong, then it wouldn’t be even allowed.

This was an Academy tournament, if anyone could bring strong servants, then rich people could just hire a strong mercenary, and then the competition would be meaningless.

“Teacher Woos said that if I had to bring you along, then after arriving at Despair Island Lake you would have to take a magic test.” Lin Xiao asked worriedly, “You’ll be fine, right”

“With… what”

“I’m asking whether you can pass the test and prove you’re an ordinary person.”

Lin Xiao lowered his head and stroked his chin while he thought.

“The competition will go on for a week, and Despair Island was in the center of Despair Island Lake, it’s too far from the lakeside.

Although I brought an extra-large magic crystal, enough for 48 hours, you still have to stay with me… the problem is how can you pass the test”

Lin Xiao had to find a way so that the Demon King could prove she was just a powerless maid, only then could she follow Lin Xiao and participate.

What should he do, does he have to cheat the test

Lin Xiao thought about it from multiple angles, seeing his anxious expression, Elena was stunned.

She, of course, knew that he was worried about her.

From Lin Xiao’s standpoint, as someone who hates troublesome things, he should just leave her behind and participate by himself.

The person who should be worried and thinking should be Elena.

But he didn’t leave her behind.

That was what she hated about Lin Xiao, they’ve clearly been fighting for this long, she already decided to maintain a distance from him, but these little things swayed her resolve.

She could never truly hate him.

They were always fighting and lived like mortal enemies, but every time something like this happened, Lin Xiao never held back and treated her as someone precious.

That should be feelings for someone he loved, right

No, Elena would never misunderstand his attitude for love, to her, it was just because he truly treated her as his maid, the person he loved was that princess.

“Lin Xiao, you want your maid to participate” Shen DaiYing walked over and smoothly joined into their conversation, “But she doesn’t know anything, not even how to cook, wouldn’t it be dangerous”

“Uh… how to cook”

Suddenly mentioning another topic, Lin Xiao was slightly derailed.

He turned to look at Elena with an inquiring gaze, yet got an annoyed gaze back, so he tactfully skipped it over.

“Um… sister Ying, in short, I have to bring her, otherwise she’ll go crazy from sadness.” Lin Xiao helplessly spread his hands and explained, “Just treat it like a contract.”

“Oh, is that so A contract where you’ll go crazy from sadness… As expected, you don’t have a normal master-servant relationship.” Shen DaiYing mumbled.

Lin Xiao couldn’t hear what she said clearly, but Shen DaiYing already once again wore her charming smile and continued talking about something else.

There was still a while before their destination, so they could still take their time to think about the matters with the test.

And so, a group of people each with their own problems and misgivings set off once more.

Rather than whether Elena could participate or not, Woos and Momm were more interested in how far these four could get in the competition.

On the road, Woos repeated reminded the four about the rules and what they had to watch out for so that they could be prepared.

the competition rules were simple, the entirety of Despair Island was the competition grounds.

Each academy sent out a team of four, fighting over one another’s ‘Resonance Crystal’, whoever has the most points in the end, is the winner.

The specifics could only be explained once they reached Despair Island Lake so Woos was explaining about the opponents they’ll meet.

There were about 100 teams participating, although they were the elite from various academies, honestly speaking, most of them were just stepping stones for Caesar.

Caesar was a genuine genius, not just in Loran Academy, even within the entire Eileen continent.

Out of the near 500 participating people, Caesar was the only magic swordsman, a unique and unrivaled innate gift.

He didn’t just possess the innate gift and strength to become a hero, but also the temperament.

With Caesar as their vanguard, Loran Academy had high chances of winning this year, however, it wasn’t like they had no worthy opponents.

There were five teams that they had to pay attention to.

“The first is LinHeyan Kingdom’s Water Academy.” The four surrounded Woos, carefully listening to him talking.

On Eileen, other than Lombard Kingdom that was situated in the center, there was LinHeyan Kingdom to the North, Gotham Kingdom to the West, and Heino Kingdom to the East, where they currently were.

As for the South, that was Elena’s home, the Forest of the End.

“The academy is one of the oldest in Kingdom, I heard that this year’s team is composed of three warriors and one magician, a King’s team composition, they cant be taken lightly.”

The aforementioned King’s team, is a team where the main attackers are three warriors and the magician provides support and long-range attacks.

It was a convenient and logical team composition, the tactics were simple and crude, they didn’t need much practice before being able to execute it well.

Most teams in the competiton used the composition, but Loran Academy was an exception…

“We have a magic swordsman, two magicians, and a… cough.” When he got there, Woos glanced at Shen DaiYing.

“Teacher, are you asking about me I guess I’m considered a half warrior, although I’ve never learned that bushido spirit, hehe.”

Bushido Don’t they wield a katana and charge with a mighty yell You’re more like an assassin!

Though he really liked assassins.

Even on earth, he would always pick classes similar to ‘thief’, stabbing someone in the back always felt very cool.

Actually, right when he transmigrated, he dint want to be a magician, but a nimble assassin like Shen DaiYing.

But he gave up later on because of two reasons.

One, he never had the talent to become an assassin, but a talent for a magician, so it would have been a waste not to learn magic.

Two, he was afraid of dying, and was lazy…

Learning magic was easy, he could just stay home all day to train.

If he wanted to become an assassin, he would have to train his body and learn stealth and assassination skills.

Personally taking lives with the knife in his hand, risking his life, an arduous and unrewarding task, an extremely dangerous profession.

It felt cool within a game, but actually doing it was another matter.

People who killed had to prepare to get killed, no one would become an assassin without a reason that was worth sacrificing their life for.

He wondered what Shen DaiYing’s reason was.

“Uh, bushido… sigh, anyways it’s too chaotic.

You guys aren’t good with team fights and cant cooperate so there’s no way to help set up battle tactics since it would be too difficult to implement.”

“What do you mean” Lin Xiao objected, “Caesar would be the main attacker, then Rosie and I will yell 666… oh no, support him from behind, then sister Ying… no, the princess, will flank and use her speed to clean up the remnants.

Isn’t that a good cooperation tactic”

“Cough… what 666 I don’t understand.” Woos coughed, didn’t bother with this brats nonsense and continued introducing the other two strong teams.

Other than Water Academy, Cato Academy from Gotham Kingdom was also very strong.

Gotham Kingdom had a much shorter history compared to the three other Kingdoms on Eileen, and Cato Academy was also a relatively new academy.

New Kingdom, new academy, but that didn’t mean they were weak.

Perhaps it was precisely because they had a short history, so they thirsted to become stronger faster, they longed to obtain glory.

“Cato Academy’s doctrine is to do anything in order to win.

As long as the rules allow it, they’ll especially take advantage of gray areas, and do anything in order to win!” Woos sternly said, “There’s a lot of freedom in this time’s competition, there aren’t even any judges, so once you enter Despair Island, only you can protect your own lives.”

Cato Academy didn’t use the King’s team, but four warriors… no more like, one archer, and three assassins using daggers and short swords.

Rather than saying they were competing, it would be better to say they came to assassinate someone.
