The maid squad is too strong, what use is there for me, the Demon King?

Chapter 311 From the bottom of the valley to the peak, until... falling into the abyss.

Stepping onto the stage, her eyes met those of the aristocratic playboy. The young woman instinctively lowered her head, only to be met with Franz Stanton's wrath.

"Keep your head up!"

It was a furious, fierce voice. The girl dared not disobey, but when she looked up and saw Franz Stanton staring at her unabashedly, she felt a wave of discomfort, but she had no choice but to suppress her nausea.

The priest stood before the altar, which was decorated with flowers and white fabrics, his hands clasped together, and a kind smile on his face.

Kindness? No, it was an extremely hypocritical smile.

The priest began to recite the blessing.

"We gather here today, under the witness of the goddess, to witness the union of this couple, Franz Stanton and Afong. Before we begin this sacred wedding ceremony, let us bow our heads and pray for a moment."

Franz Stanton was very displeased when he heard that the priest had to go through so many procedures. He glared at the priest, which frightened the priest into speeding up the process.

"Franz Stanton and Avon, you stand here today, promising to be partners to one another. Franz Stanton, do you take Avon to be your lawful wife... concubine, to love her, respect her, comfort her, and protect her, in good times and in bad, in wealth and in poverty, in sickness and in health, and to stay with her for the rest of your lives?"

"I am willing."

Those were three words of extreme impatience, completely devoid of sincerity. Franz Stanton was quite annoyed; even taking a concubine was this troublesome. He decided to tell his father that they shouldn't have a wedding in the future.

The priest turned to the girl and continued to ask:

"Fang, are you willing to accept Franz Stanton as your husband, to love him, respect him, comfort him, and protect him, in good times and bad, in wealth and poverty, in sickness and in health, and to stay with him for the rest of your lives?"

Tears welled up in her eyes.

How could she possibly say those three words? They were words she could only say to someone other than her beloved.

The falling tears only fueled Franz Stanton's agitation: "Hurry up, don't waste time!"

The girl choked up, unable to speak even under Franz Stanton's pressure.

Alo...

Right now, she can only think about him.

Franz Stanton couldn't wait any longer. He grabbed the girl's wrist and was about to slap her.

At that moment, a deep and powerful roar suddenly exploded in the air, followed by a cacophony of roars.

Howls of wolves, roars of lions... the roars of monsters set off a symphony of slaughter.

"What... happened..." Franz Stanton was so frightened that he sat down on the ground.

The priest and the servants were also unaware of what had happened.

Suddenly, a dark shadow leaped from the treetops, bursting into the wedding venue. It was a massive monster, its roar deafening like thunder, its claws slicing through the air with chilling light. The moment it landed, it instantly destroyed the surrounding tables, chairs, and flowers.

Following closely behind, even more monsters surged in like a tide.

They charged in with incredible speed, like streaks of black lightning. Before the guests could even react, the monsters had already surged into the crowd. Each step a monster took was accompanied by the ground trembling and the screams of the guests. Their eyes gleamed with bloodlust, drool dripped from their mouths, and they opened their gaping maws, launching a frenzied attack on the terrified people. The wedding had instantly transformed into a living hell.

"Quick...quick...run!" The priest was the first to react and started running.

Although it's unclear why monsters have appeared here, the situation is urgent enough that there's no time for further thought.

Franz Stanton yelled, "Guards! Guards! Get to me and protect me! If anything happens to me, you're all finished!"

But instead of summoning guards for protection, Franz Stanton was attacked by several monsters.

Franz Stanton's pupils suddenly shrank, and before he could even scream, he was torn to shreds by the monster, his flesh and blood flying everywhere.

Faced with this scene, the girl was so frightened that she sat frozen on the ground, her mind blank.

I knew I should run, but my body wouldn't obey me.

Why... are there monsters here?

Am I... going to die here?

No, that's good. There's nothing to be afraid of.

Franz Stanton is dead. I don't have to marry him. I didn't betray him. No one could have predicted this accident. In any case, my parents won't be held responsible, right?

Yes, that's better.

Facing impending death, the girl closed her eyes.

That's good, but I want to see him one more time before I die...

"Ah Fang..."

She was hallucinating; she could actually hear a boy's voice in her ears.

How could he possibly be here? Even if it's just a hallucination, at least I can hear his voice again before I die, even if... it's just my imagination.

"Afang...Afang!" The boy's voice became urgent: "Are you alright? Are you hurt anywhere?"

The girl was a little confused. Was this auditory hallucination really that powerful?

Can the tone of voice also change?

She opened her eyes in confusion, and what came into view was the face of the person she had been thinking about day and night.

“Alo!” she exclaimed in surprise, but her expression quickly dimmed again.

"Only if you die can I see you in hell?"

"Huh?" The boy didn't quite understand what the girl was saying. "What nonsense are you talking about? I'm alive and well, and you're alive and well too. I've come to save you!"

The girl then realized that she was still in the same place, and had not died or fallen into hell or anything.

After understanding the situation, the girl panicked: "Alo, run! Don't worry about me!"

As she spoke, she pushed the boy away.

"Huh?" The boy was somewhat amused and exasperated. "Calm down, these monsters won't attack us, you see."

Immediately, the boy commanded the wolf-shaped monster beside him.

"sit down.

stand up."

The girl was greatly shocked to see the boy commanding the monsters.

Boy: "The dog barks."

Wolf-shaped monster: "Awooo~~~~~~"

The young man was stunned.

The wolf couldn't bark after all.

The girl finally understood what had happened. Her sweetheart had come to save her, although she didn't know why he could control monsters!

The girl was overjoyed and was about to hug the boy tightly and rush into her beloved's arms to feel his warm embrace.

But in an instant, her high spirits plummeted to rock bottom.

The scenery before her eyes changed; the boy was no longer the bright image in her heart, but a sinister smile on his lips, covered in blood.

Countless corpses lay around her, and the stench of decay made the girl hold her breath.

Her gaze trembled.

She saw three unusual corpses around her.

Those were her parents, and...

The boy's father!

What she heard was not the boy's concern, but a whisper like that of a demon.

"Traitor! You deserve to die! You all deserve to die!"

They stopped me from coming to save you, and even you betrayed me!

That madness, that hysteria, was completely foreign to her.

He killed everyone...

Now, they want to kill me too?

The girl couldn't accept the contrast; she knelt on the ground, her eyes filled with endless fear.

She pushed him away.

"Don't touch me, you monster!"
