“Kill me? Heh.”
Lin Xiao wasn’t scared at all from hearing that familiar threat.
“Demon King, you’ve already said that so many times, but I’m still fine and alive… please, it’s not threatening at all.”
“Hmph, that’s just my benevolence, I purposely left you alive! Yet you’re still unrepentant, so this time, I definitely wont let you off!”
Elena made a mean face and raised her paws.
“Elena, just forget it… when you try to act mean like that, I find you even cuter, if I can’t hold back and do something perverted to you, then what should you do?”
“Pervert! You dare?”
“It’s not like you’ll do anything to me, so can’t I do as I please with you?”
“Shameless! Who would just let you! Also this time… I really will kill you!”
“Yes, yes, the demon king is mighty, I’m so scared… is that okay?”
“You!?”
If it was when they first met, he would be worried that Elena would do something, but now… although they haven’t confirmed a certain relationship, but he was sure that Elena wouldn’t kill him.
“Elena, I treat you so well and you like me so much, how could you kill me? Rather, if I were hurt, you would surely come to save me!”
“Is that so Lin Xiao, don’t be overconfident! You seem to have forgotten something, I’m not under your control anymore!”
“Oh?”
“Before I was sealed by your magic and couldn’t use my true strength, but now… hehe, you and Snow gave me this collar and you even told me the incantation to remove… so now you can’t control me!”
“But I don’t want to control you… you’re my maid, not my puppet.”
“… T-that’s not what I mean!”
When she heard what he said, for some reason she went soft and was slightly happy and all her anger dissipated. But she couldn’t just stop, otherwise, she would be admitting that she was in love with him. So Elena could only continue.
“Anyways… pervert, just remember, don’t give me a chance! Once you make a mistake and I find an opening, I’ll ruthlessly kill you!”
“Sigh, okay, I’ll remember… but the problem is that there won’t be an opening.”
“Lin Xiao, you’ll pay the price for your conceit sooner or later! Do you think you’re invincible? No! Even if Nick isn’t your opponent, there’s something that can defeat you!”
“What? That monster called Titan?”
“Of course not! … Hmph, it seems like you’ve completely forgotten! The soul-devouring bug can control people’s hearts and you’re no exception! If I don’t remind you, then you would surely fall to it!”
“Hm… but you just reminded me. Elena, thanks for your warning, I’ll be careful and won’t fall for it.”
“Eh? I, I…”
Elena stopped and recalled what she said and almost cried!
What was she doing?
She said that she wouldn’t remind him and ended up reminding him! Elena could only continue clenching her fist and threatening him, “Hmph, even if I remind you, you won’t be able to escape it… Lin Xiao, don’t forget, that thing only affects you humans, but it’s ineffective against me!”
“Oh, because you’re a red-eyed black cat.”
“That’s right! When Nick takes you down with him and the black core to infect you, then you’ll realize! Lin Xiao, I’ll tell you this! When you’re infected and go insane, I’ll be fine! At that time, I definitely won’t save you!”
“Hm… but would you really do that?”
“Of course! I’m the vicious demon king, at that time I would take off the collar and use my feet… no my paws to send you flying!”
“No, Elena, you won’t.”
“Hah? What are you saying?”
“I’m saying… that you won’t leave me to die, if something like that happened, you would save me.”
“Hmph, then we’ll see what I do when the time comes!”
“Heh, oh you… Anyways, Elena, I still need to count on your help… we’ve come to Gotham Kingdom for too long, and now it’s time to end it.”
“Hmph, whatever, you’re the master, so as the maid, I’ll follow you wherever you go.”
“That means, you’re still willing to help me?”
“What else can I do? I’m already on the pirate ship with you, so I can only continue on, it’s not like I can sink the ship with me on it?”
“Puh… what kind of analogy is that?”
Lin Xiao was amused by her comparison and laughed which also made Elena laugh. Just like that, the atmosphere changed between the two, and if anyone else saw them they would tell them to stop their flirting.
“So… Elena, you’re in love with me, right?”
“Hmph, just wait when I personally kill you, then you’ll know how I feel towards you.”
“Hehe, okay, but I’m just afraid you won’t get the chance to!”
“Don’t underestimate Nick, he’ll surely create a chance for me?”
“Oh? So that means you two are actually on one side and will team up against me?”
“Tsk, you found out… then let me just tell you… that’s right! I’m actually the final boss of the enlightenment society! They’re all my subordinates and this was all planned and directed by me!”
