Picked Up A Demon King To Be A Maid - Chapter 602: Miracles With A Broadsword

Yes, they were right. They may have a chance of surviving, but Shelley’s survival chance was near zero.

Once she was caught and they find there was nothing in her bag, that would surely enrage them! There was no escaping death, the only question was, in what cruel manner would they use to execute this crafty bitch.

“Second lieutenant Shelley! We! We…”

“Shut up! Listen up! I’m the leader and the highest ranking here, so you all have to listen to my orders! I don’t need you to worry about me! I just need you to follow my orders!”

“…”

“Answer me! Are you just going to wait here to die!? … You cowards!”

“Please wait a moment!”

“What staff sergeant, are you still not going to listen to my orders?”

“No, I agree with your plan…”

“Are you insane? How can you let her die like that?”

“Shut up sergeant! Let him speak!”

“Staff sergeant, please continue.”

“Okay… I admit, your plan is one of the ways of surviving, but it’s not perfect and can be improved.”

“Oh? Then do you have a better idea?”

“We shouldn’t just rush out, but set a trap here and wait for them to come!”

“A trap?”

“We have to admit that they’re stronger than us, but if we set a trap here and then strike them when they let their guards down, we have a much higher chance of surviving!”

“Right! That’s a good idea, let’s do just that!”

The other members also agreed and went to gather material from around the cave and made modifications. With their limited supply, they made a hidden arrow trap and an explosion trap. They also left small prints outside the cave to attract them.

“Hurry up, I think they’re nearby.”

“Yes!”

Yes this idea will surely work! The enemies may be stronger, but there wasn’t that big of a difference in strength, so if they could use the traps to get an advantage, they can surely escape!

“Shh… quiet, there’s someone coming! Is it them? It’s them… hurry! Hide inside, don’t let them see us and follow the plan!”

“Yes, ma’am!”

As expected when they saw the traces purposely left behind, the enemies followed it and quickly found the cave they hid in.

“They actually hid in an enclosed cave, isn’t that just asking to die?”

“Right? It seems that bitch Claire’s subordinates are just as stupid as she is, hiding in a cave like some rats!”

“Hahaha, let’s go and catch these stinking rats!”

They quickly rushed into the cave and saw the five rats hiding inside and began laughing out loud!

“Hahaha, Miss Shelley, why are you hiding in such a gloomy place?”

The five became vigilant when they saw them come in and Shelley stood at the front and drew her sword while coldly staring at them.

“Oh? Quite brave drawing your sword, I thought you would be so scared and beg for your life.”

“How do you know who I am?”

“Hehe, of course I do, Shelley, a flower in the army, and second lieutenant at such a young age, truly outstanding… but I never expected to send you to deliver the letter, are you able to shoulder such an important mission?”

“Letter? … H-how do you know my mission?”

“Haha, of course I know! Because I’ve been waiting here for you for over half a month!”

“… That means, you’re the rebels? You want the letter!”

“That’s right! Shelley, as long as you hand it over, I’ll spare your life!”

“Heh, you think I’ll believe you?”

“Hehe, I definitely won’t leave the others alive, but as for you…” The rebel squad leader licked his lips and admired her figure as he smiled, “Trust me, I’m quite merciful to beautiful women, I definitely won’t kill you.., but, I’ll need you to satisfy me and my brothers, hehe…”

“What? … Y-you shameless! Shut up! … I definitely won’t hand it over!”

“Sigh, you know you can’t beat us, your thin sword is like a toy in front of my large broadsword, why do you have to pointlessly resist.”

“Hmph, I admit I can’t beat you, but you’re too careless! … Sergeant, now!”

“Yes! … You bastards, die!”

“What!?”

“Explosion!!”

Along with his cry, he used all of his magic power to create the explosion!

The surrounding walls became dynamites and exploded, coupled with multiple hidden arrows that shot ruthlessly at them until the cave was filled with smoke.

“Did it work?”

Shelley was delighted that the traps worked and immediately led the others to charge through the entrapment.

But before they could get out of the smoke, a lightning fast blade shot forth.

“Shelley! Watch out… ah!!”

“Staff Sergeant?”

Shelley realized she was pushed and then turned to look and was shocked.

The blade that was originally directed at her, but the sergeant pushed her aside and instead he was hit and cut in two.

“Staff Sergeant!!!!”

Shelley cried out then noticed the blade came again and cut down the others and sent the other four flying into the cave walls.
