The Unemployed Demon Lord

"Uh..." A drop of cold sweat dripped down Hobbs' forehead, thinking that Karl is enough, because of a strong father like you, Rukia dare not casually fall in love with others.

"However, this girl seems to be infatuated with Elgin the Great Swordsman recently. She is always talking about marrying this mysterious man..." Uncle Carl rubbed the stubble on his chin and muttered thoughtfully.

"Pfft!" Merlin was frightened immediately, and sprayed beer all over the table, thinking in surprise

What the hell!what's going on?

Why is everyone trying to take the opportunity to murder me now...

Chapter 6: True and False

Merlin felt that things were getting a little tricky. Is his back so handsome?Can even a scheming bitch like Rukia be captured?

Uncle Carl and Hobbs looked at Merlin in surprise, feeling that his reaction was a little strange.

Didn't we just talk about Rukia?How can you spit out suddenly? It's a bit too rude.

Uncle Carl asked curiously, "Brother Merlin, what's wrong with you?"

"Cough cough...cough..." Merlin coughed for a while, waved his hands again and again to show that he was fine, and couldn't help but cast a few glances at the busy Lucia over there.

Uncle Carl didn't take it seriously, but took a sip of beer calmly and continued, "My girl doesn't know why? She suddenly became interested in Elgin the Great Swordsman, just like other young girls nowadays. Without knowing the real identity and appearance of the other party, blindly following the trend and falling in love with this mysterious guy, people really can't figure it out..."

Merlin's expression became complicated, and he shouted in his heart, I can't fucking understand it?This group of people's heads are so funny!

"Tsk tsk tsk, Karl, you are too old. Although I am about the same age as you, I still understand the current situation..." Hobbs said with a smile, feeling that he was not as good as Karl in every aspect, but The brain is still bright.

"Oh? You know the reason..." Uncle Karl asked in surprise, thinking that Hobbs has always seen things more thoroughly.

"Men with a sense of mystery are very attractive to women, especially younger girls. They always fantasize about this man, and in the end they will infinitely approach their ideal object in their minds. Do you think this is attractive? Human?" Hobbs said clearly.

Merlin drank calmly beside him, wondering if it was a mistake for him to wear a mask?It's not that I will cause a series of troubles if I don't wear a mask...

"It makes sense, the sense of mystery~" Uncle Carl folded his hands and continued to ask, "Then I put on the mask now, can our family Rukia like me more, I feel that my status as a father is not as good as this mystery Elgin is a great swordsman..."

"Carl, forget it. It's hard to attract little girls at your age, and Rukia probably has seen enough of you as a father. Even if you turn into ashes, you can recognize him. What's the use of wearing a mask? Mystery doesn't exist. ..." Hobbs couldn't help saying a few truths.

"Uh!" Uncle Carl was deeply frustrated, feeling that he had failed as a father, and it was difficult to attract his daughter's attention? !

"And Elgin the Great Swordsman is very popular in the empire now, right? He's so popular, a fugitive can be regarded as him, envious of a dead man, how can this be a fugitive? He is clearly the savior of the whole people..." Hobbs Depressedly took a sip of the wine, seemingly envious, "So Karl, give up, you are not as good as Elgin, the great swordsman, and Lucia's grade is the period when the heart is sprouting, it's normal, look at it... ..."

"Damn it!" Uncle Carl slapped the table angrily, startling both Merlin and Hobbs, "Aren't you just a mysterious ranger!? How am I worse than him?! Why does my precious daughter worship others? , but don’t worship me? Could it be that I’m not tall and mighty enough to be a father!?”

"emmmmmm..." Merlin looked embarrassed, thinking that this is what Carl cares about, because he cares about his daughter so much.

"Carl, Lucia is no longer the cute little loli she used to be. How could she still be obsessed with your father? Even if you are the world's strongest fighter, in his eyes, you are just a sloppy uncle..." Hobb Si twitched the corner of his mouth, always feeling that Karl couldn't see reality clearly.

"I don't accept it! Don't let me catch Elgin the Great Swordsman, or I will punch him to prove to my girl that Dad is the most reliable person, and he is definitely not a guy who dare not even show his face!" Uncle Karl clenched his fists and said angrily, "How dare you seduce my daughter, hit me first!"

Merlin covered his darkened face, wondering who ever seduced your daughter?It has nothing to do with me at all...

"However, the strength of the great swordsman Elgin seems to be said by many people to be unsurpassable, so don't be like this." Hobbs felt that Carl was a little irrational. If I remember correctly, he seemed to be against the great swordsman Elgin. , basically have no good fruit to eat.

"So what? It's about my status in my daughter's heart. I must let her know that only dad can be trusted in this world..." Uncle Karl clenched his fists, full of fighting spirit.

Hobbs stopped talking, feeling that Carl's character was like this, and ten bulls couldn't pull back the decision.

Merlin showed a bit of impatience, thinking that when people are unlucky, the blame comes from the sky.

At this time, Alice came to the guild, seemingly intending to ask about yesterday's drinking madness.

When Alice saw Merlin, she immediately let out a "hum".

Merlin shot back with blank eyes, not to be outdone.

Alice ignored Merlin, but walked over directly and asked

"Hobbs, did I get drunk yesterday? Did I do anything outrageous?"

"It's too much..." Hobbs touched his aching face, and he didn't have the nerve to say, "No~"

Alice looked at Hobbs as if it was not normal, so she had to ask others, "Mr. Carl, what did I do yesterday?"

Uncle Carl looked at Merlin and said with an embarrassed expression, "You don't know what you did yesterday?"

"No... I don't know..." Alice replied honestly.

Uncle Carl looked at Hobbs and said mysteriously, "Then we must not tell her."

Hobbs nodded frequently, "Yes, I can't tell her."

"???" Alice was full of question marks, seeing everyone's mysterious

What did I do yesterday? !

◇

Alice couldn't ask, so she had to go to Rukia.

"Rukia, what did I do yesterday?"

"You don't know!?" Rukia was stunned, and then showed a mysterious smile, "Then I will never tell you~"

"Oh..." Alice sighed, wondering why no one would say anything?What embarrassing thing did I do yesterday?

"What's the matter? Are you in a bad mood because you went drunk yesterday?" Rukia put down the quill and asked.

"It's not all about yesterday, that bastard Merlin bought all my savings for betting tickets, which made me very angry..." Alice said angrily, and secretly glanced at Merlin.

"Eh!? So capricious!?" Rukia showed a surprised expression.

"Isn't it? I don't care about my feelings at all!" Alice became angrier as she thought about it, and felt that letting Merlin go was too easy.

"You should learn to be stronger, otherwise you won't be able to hold down these bastards..." Rukia tossed her hair and said triumphantly, "It's like those male dogs who always pursue me, thinking about it every day. How to please me? But I won't dump them, haha~"

Alice's expression became complicated, thinking she was showing off to me on purpose, right?You must be right, why do you want to hurt me, idiot Baitian?

While everyone was busy, a live news broadcast was suddenly interrupted on the big screen in the guild.

Bella stood in front of the camera with a microphone in her hand, dressed dignifiedly and elegantly, and said slowly

"Hi everyone, viewers, now we are interrupting an urgent news."

"Just now, the Empire officially released the news that the rumored Great Swordsman Elgin himself..."

"It has been found."

Chapter 7: Monthly Ticket Addition

As soon as this news was released, the entire guild exploded, and it felt as shocking as sparks hitting the earth.

After all, Elgin the Great Swordsman is a hot topic now, and the news about him is very eye-catching.

And what the reporter Bella said just now turned out to be Elgin the Great Swordsman himself! ?

This news surprised everyone. For a long time, many people thought that the great swordsman Elgin was hiding his identity and would never let others know, but now he suddenly appeared as himself!

In addition, everyone is very curious about this mysterious ranger and wants to know who she is?Who can take it calmly when such a shocking event suddenly occurs?

And recently, due to the inaction of the Bauhinia Knights under the royal family, the public has become more and more dissatisfied. Elgin's great swordsman beheaded the giant ghost and saluted the empire, which made many people think that this mysterious man It is the savior of the empire, and the attention is unprecedented!

"Eh!?" Merlin put down his wine glass and looked at the big screen with an expression of indescribable astonishment, wondering what's going on?Elgin the Great Swordsman himself found it?I'm obviously still here!Who did you find? !

The adventurers in the guild put down their work one after another, and quickly gathered under the magic screen, hoping to clear it up

"Really? Is it Elgin the Great Swordsman himself!?"

"It seems to be, and it is the official news from the empire."

"Could it be that Elgin's build is still caught? It's too strong!"

"It shouldn't be possible. The great swordsman Elgin is so powerful, how could he be easily caught?"

"That's right, maybe this mysterious strong man has reached a certain consensus with the royal family, so he appeared calmly?"

Everyone is talking about it below, and they are a little confused about the situation. They hope to get more information, and they always feel that something big is about to happen?

"No way? This mysterious guy actually appeared? It's really surprising..." Uncle Carl took a sip of beer calmly, frowned and said, "Alright, as long as I know the specific appearance, I will go meet this person if I have the chance." Man, I want to see, what is my daughter looking for?"

A black line appeared on Merlin's forehead, and he said in his heart, don't look at it, it's me...

"That's weird..." Hobbs stroked his beard, feeling something was wrong.

"What's the matter Hobbs?" Merlin asked in surprise.

"Isn't this Elgin great swordsman always wanted? It's really strange and unreasonable to appear now?" Hobbs paused, and continued to speak slowly, "Queen Elizabeth is famous for her iron fist." The ruler will never compromise easily with others, so it is impossible to revoke the arrest warrant, and the great swordsman Elgin is so powerful, it is obviously even more impossible to compromise, don't you think it is strange to appear in the capital at such a time?"

"Strange, so strange!" Merlin nodded frequently, thinking that Lao Tzu is here!He doesn't know how to clone himself, so how could the empire find himself?This is so abnormal!

"So, it's not normal for the empire to find Elgin the Great Swordsman himself. Unless some kind of reconciliation is reached in private, it is basically impossible to meet in such a peaceful way. The queen will definitely arrest Elgin the Great Swordsman at any cost Sanctions." Hobbs uttered his speculation, which sounded quite reasonable.

"It makes sense..."

Merlin thinks it is very possible, but this so-called "Elgin Great Swordsman himself" is obviously someone pretending to be himself!

Obviously I am the real thing, why is this happening! ?

Which bastard dared to pretend to be himself after eating the bear's heart and leopard's guts! ?

Is it me, Merlin, who can't hold the knife anymore, or is the other party too drifting?

Merlin didn't expect such an unbelievable thing to happen, but he wanted to see who was so awesome? !It was the first time I saw someone dare to fake their own existence.

"Now that the relationship between Elgin Great Swordsman and Queen is so tense and delicate, they dare to broadcast live? There must be something strange about this matter..." Hobbs said in a concluding tone, looking at the trend in front of him, he found Elgin Great Swordsman himself Afterwards, it seems that they plan to hold a press conference or something.

Sure enough, Bella on the screen went on to say

"According to the official news from the empire, Elgin Great Swordsman will appear in a short while, standing on the highest platform at the top of the palace."

"At that time, everyone will be able to admire this mysterious hero for the first time. I heard that Elgin Great Swordsman will take off his mask this time, so that everyone can see his true face!"

"Please don't go away, and wait and see this historic moment!"

The adventurers in the guild immediately whispered to each other in private, feeling that it was not normal.

Because meeting in public is against Elgin's great swordsman's style of doing things, many people are surprised that he is not low-key.

"Public meeting?! And take off the mask? Is this Elgin the Great Swordsman?"
