The Unemployed Demon Lord

And this bastard always hoped that one day he would win by betting on horses.

How could a guy with this kind of obsession not use the free money?

Alice felt "thumping" in her heart, put down her casual clothes, bent down and pulled out her small coffers.

After quickly opening it, I found that there were no bright gold coins inside, and instead there was a box full of white paper slips.

"Um!!"

Alice stared wide-eyed, looking at the step in front of her, wishing she was dreaming, those gold coins were all her property, why did they turn into white paper now.

Although there are only more than [-] gold coins, most of them are the rewards for helping Cecilia last time, but it is already a lot for Alice step by step.

Alice picked up a piece of paper and looked at it carefully. It had the logo of the Royal Casino on it, and it also said how many bets to buy, which horse, and the number of the game.

The three big characters "Richard" were deeply imprinted in Alice's mind. Although she didn't like horse betting, she was quite familiar with this name.

Alice's tender body shook, feeling a little dizzy, as if it was difficult to accept the reality in front of her...

◇

Merlin's omelet was anxious, and there was already a smell of paste in the air, which showed how flustered he was.

I……

Why can't you control your own hand? !

Every time I pass by a horse betting station, I want to buy a few bets by myself. If others can win the jackpot, so can I!

Merlin muttered in his heart from time to time, but at this moment there was an extremely piercing scream

"Yaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

Merlin was so frightened that he almost dropped the shovel in his hand to the ground. Looking at the tragic sound, he must have been discovered.

Sure enough, Alice pushed away from the room, ran straight to Merlin with bare feet, held a handful of horse racing tickets in both hands, and questioned him loudly.

"Merlin! What are these!?"

"This is..." Merlin looked away and said awkwardly, "This is the ticket to a brilliant life~"

"Come on!" Alice gritted her teeth angrily, and put a bunch of betting tickets on Merlin's head, and they fell like snowflakes.

"Tsk!" Merlin was speechless, feeling that Alice was a little irritable, "Miss, can you calm down?"

"How do you tell me to calm down?!" Alice pointed to a lot of betting tickets and said angrily, "You bought more than [-] gold coins and turned them into waste paper!"

"Alice, pay attention to your wording, this is called a ticket to a brilliant life~" Merlin said in a very elegant tone, repeatedly emphasizing that Alice should not use such a low word as a horse betting ticket.

"Okay, okay, the ticket to a brilliant life, right?" Alice nodded, not bothering to argue with Merlin, and continued, "Can you tell me what you think? Why do you buy such useless things?! What on earth do you want?" Do you know what you did?"

"You know, I'm working hard for the huge debts of the two of us. Even if the chances are slim, we still have to work hard. I believe that the goddess of luck will smile at me sooner or later, instead of always wearing a bad card. Fart face." Merlin became more and more energetic, showing a resolute look like a hero, "I want to prove with facts that even if I am at the bottom of the non-chieftain, I will never give in! Fight! It's the demons! Fate!"

"Get out! Don't paint yourself as a vigorous rebellious hero, is it disgusting?!" Alice stretched out her finger and poked Merlin's chest angrily. If she was strong enough, she would have beaten this bastard out of her life long ago. .

"Don't!" Merlin rubbed his chest and said seriously, "Don't do it, I'm warning you, otherwise I will resist."

"Hmm..." Alice puffed up her cheeks angrily, and she controlled her anger a little, "My little treasury was saved for living, and now you've bought it into a box of waste paper, what will happen to our life this month? ? Are you going to eat dirt on the street!?”

"It's okay, isn't it just eating dirt? I've long been used to that kind of life! And..." Merlin reached behind him and took out a piece of letter paper, "Here you wrote very clearly that you gave me all your small coffers Yes, it’s written in black and white, it’s useless if you want to quibble, how I use the money is my freedom~”

"Yeah!!" Alice went crazy, grabbed the letter paper and tore it to pieces, then grabbed Merlin's collar, "I said why you are so diligent in the morning, it's all because of a guilty conscience! I really want to fight you hard now!" "Calm down~" Merlin spread his hands, feeling that Alice has no foresight, "Horse betting is inherently luck, but it can make more money, with revolving profits, as long as we persevere, we will reap the benefits Rolling interest, rolling interest, endless..."

"Bah!" Alice spat, staring at Merlin and said angrily

"Shut up, you shameless old thief!"

Chapter 5: Monthly Ticket Addition

"Repay the money! I want you to pay back the money immediately!" Alice grinned angrily, as if she wanted to bite off a piece of Merlin's flesh.

"Please, do you have any credit, say that all the good money will go to me~" Merlin thickened his skin, and bullied Alice and had nothing to do with him.

"Who said it's all yours?! What I mean is that I have an accident, and the money belongs to you. I'm fine now, what are you doing with my savings!?" Alice held on to Merlin's collar, and today It looks like he's going to fight him to the end.

It can't be blamed for Alice being so angry, grabbing at Merlin's braid.

After all, it was the savings that Alice had saved for more than a year, and it turned into a box of waste paper in the end, how could she not be angry?

"Tsk! If I had known this, I wouldn't have rescued you. It's so troublesome..." Merlin showed a careless expression, feeling very helpless.

"What did you say?!" Alice didn't hear clearly, but she always felt that it wasn't some reflective words.

"Okay, okay, I'll pay you back. How about paying you back double when I make a lot of money?" Merlin drew a big cake to confuse Alice.

"I don't believe it! You have been in a state of unlucky losses all the time. Do you believe that you can make a lot of money? I'm afraid my own head is broken!" Alice pointed to her own brain, feeling that Merlin was simply insulting herself. IQ.

"Uh..." Merlin felt very heartbroken, as if he had been despised, and felt that he still had a chance to become a serf and sing, "With so many betting tickets, I don't believe I can't even win a copper! A little bit of luck Be better, make a comeback immediately!"

"GUN!" Alice frowned, and couldn't help hitting Merlin, "With your virtue, plus your LOW luck, if you win the lottery once, the whole world will usher in the end!"

"I..." Merlin showed a complicated expression, and suddenly felt a trace of deep malice

It seems that it is stable now, and Merlin is blessed (cursed) by his wife again...

◇

In the guild.

Merlin and Hobbs chatted over drinks.

"Merlin, you're rubbing my wine again today, may I see you invite me once in my lifetime?" Hobbs showed a look of despair.

"This...haha..." Merlin laughed dryly, and patted Hobbs on the shoulder, "Yes, yes, yes, I will, look at my confident eyes."

"Emmmmmm..." Hobbs felt that his money was wasted, no matter how he looked at Merlin, he looked like a prostitute addict.

"Ah..." Merlin sighed, looking away and drinking the wine.

"What's wrong with Merlin? Are you unhappy today?" Hobbs asked curiously, and one could see that Merlin's eyebrows were a little annoyed.

Merlin pursed his lips, thinking how could he be in a good mood after being blessed (cursed) by Alice so early in the morning?

The aftermath seems to be a lot easier. Alice probably knows that Merlin, a bastard, can't pay back her money, and it's not an option for her to continue messing around like this. It's better to squeeze Merlin, a big fat sheep.

So Alice asked Merlin to do housework, and the pocket money for the next task would also be withheld by Alice until it was paid off!

The unlucky Merlin was instantly turned into a prostitute by Alice, a wealthy landowner. From now on, he could only drink with Hobbs, and his pockets were cleaner than his face.

The wool came from the sheep, and Merlin couldn't run away even if he wanted to. In the past, he would get some profit, but now it's probably all handed over to Alice.

Although Merlin would throw some money at the racetrack, it's better than not having a single coin in his pocket, right?

Now Merlin can only count on that big box of betting tickets, which can give him some energy and allow him to make a gorgeous turn!

Merlin looked at Hobbs and smiled forcedly, pretending to be calm

"Ha, no, am I fine?"

"Really..." Hobbs narrowed his eyes, not quite believing it at all, "Oh~, I see, Alice is now a saint-level powerhouse, are you getting angry at home?"

"???" Merlin was full of question marks, how could it be possible?It was always Alice who got angry at home.

"I understand. After all, the gap between you and Alice has widened again. I told you to play more romantic moves, otherwise your wife will dislike you even more. You must know that women are very jealous creatures. Comparing each other to your husband is also very important, so you have to do your best to make Alice completely devoted to you~" Hobbs, acting like someone who has experienced it, is instilling new marriage experience in Merlin.

Merlin rolled his eyes, thinking that he is so easy to be looked down upon by others?

Isn't it Mithril Adventurer?What's the big deal?

Merlin didn't want to talk about this kind of family topic, so he asked about the horse betting

"How's the market for horse betting recently? Is Richard aggressive?"

"Fighting~, I won several games in a row." Hobbs said happily, seeming to be concerned about the recent market.

"I can rest assured that……"

Merlin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that the current momentum is good, as long as he maintains it, he will definitely turn around.

snort!But stinky bitch, if you ignore me today, tomorrow I will make you unable to climb up~!

Merlin thought proudly in his heart, imagining the scene of slapping Alice hard in the face, so cool!

"Did you buy Richard?" Hobbs asked curiously.

"Yeah, I bought almost [-] gold coins, all of which were on Richard's body." Merlin showed a half-smile expression.

Hobbs was taken aback when he heard that, thinking that Merlin is so rich?Then why are you still drinking?

"Talent, didn't you say that you have no money? Where did you get the fifty thousand gold coins?"

"It's Alice's money..." Merlin said awkwardly, with a bit of embarrassment on his face.

"Pfft!" Hobbs sprayed beer all over the table and said with wide eyes, "Alice will let you use fifty thousand gold coins to buy horse racing tickets? My God! Why don't I have such a good wife?"

"She didn't let me, I bought it secretly." Merlin replied in a low voice.

"Damn it! You dare to steal your wife's small coffers, you don't want to live!? Such a prodigal, you will really be hacked to death by Alice!" Hobbs showed a terrified expression, looking at Merlin in the wrong way .

Merlin raised his forehead immediately, and didn't want to talk to Hobbs anymore. He thought to himself that Hobbs had such a rich imagination. He was one of the noble Seven Lords of the Demon Race, so he actually thought he would "steal" Alice's little girl. treasury? !This is too condescending.

Seeing that Merlin remained silent, Hobbs thought he had acquiesced, and couldn't help feeling a little respect in his heart.

Dare to steal his wife's private money, dare to do such a dangerous thing, it is admirable.

Although I also thought about stealing, but I have always had a wicked heart but no guts, and I was too cowardly.

Unexpectedly, Meilin, with his ugly appearance, would do something that he dared not do at all.

Hobbs was a little convinced. He had already seen that Alice would hold a rapier sooner or later, chop Merlin and run around.

"Hobbs, where are the Merlin brothers?"

Uncle Carl came over and joined their chat with a glass of wine.

"Oh? Karl, why didn't you go to work?" Hobbs asked in surprise, thinking that Karl is usually a workaholic, and it's abnormal to be still in the guild now.

"Let's rest for a few more days and spend more time with my girl, otherwise I will say that I am irresponsible again, alas..." Uncle Carl sighed and sat down silently.

"Really?" Hobbs looked at Rukia who was busy at the counter, "You don't look easy, Rukia is not too young, I think she should find a boyfriend, no I will always pester you, a father..."

"No way! If you want my girl, step over my dead body first!" Uncle Karl said angrily, as if he still didn't want his daughter to marry.
