The Unemployed Demon Lord

"What kind of dreams does an adult have in such childish clothes?" Merlin spread his hands.

"Why are the dreams in your mouth so superficial?" Alice revealed a face full of disgust, and then said in a proud tone, "I dream of doing a big career by myself, reaching the pinnacle of life with my own efforts, and getting everything. Respect for people, carry out love and justice to the end, and finally trample you, the big devil, under your feet and humiliate, hum~!"

"Thank you for being able to speak out without shame..."

Merlin twitched the corner of his mouth, thinking that Alice still wanted to step on him, it was just a daydream, probably impossible in this life.

And those embarrassing love and justice, he felt dizzy several times when he heard it, making him speechless.

Merlin felt that Alice had missed a few words, so he cocked the corners of his mouth and asked teasingly.

"Isn't your dream still to marry Elgin the Great Swordsman? Why don't you mention this?"

"I..." Alice's eyes flickered, and she responded awkwardly, "I don't think about it now."

"Why?" Merlin asked curiously.

"You... want you to take care of it? This is my own business." Alice blushed, turned aside and refused to answer.

Merlin smiled helplessly, thinking that this guy Alice, could it be that he was embarrassed by what he said?

"Don't just say I'm good? What about you, do you have any dreams for a lazy guy?" Alice asked with interest.

"I……"

Merlin was at a loss for words, thinking that the biggest goal was to solve the curse in his heart.

As long as the factor that threatens his life is resolved, he can rest assured to eat and wait for death.

But if I insist, this is not a dream, it can only be said to be something I worry about.

Merlin thought about it, and suddenly realized that he didn't seem to have thought about this question, what would happen to him in the future, and so on.

"No... I didn't think about it..."

"Hehe, I knew it. You still have the nerve to mock me. You are obviously a salted fish without dreams. You just know how to do nothing every day. You have never thought about what you are looking for and what you will do in the future..."

Alice felt that she had won, so she hummed a ditty and continued to hang the clothes happily, leaving Merlin speechless with ridicule, and Alice's heart began to float, for the first time ever.

Merlin remained silent, his expression showing a bit of confusion, and his heart was tangled towards the future.

Dream, in fact, I have thought about this kind of thing too?

In the future, I will find an ordinary woman to marry, earn a lot of money, and have no worries about food and clothing.

Then have a baby, preferably a girl, and that would be great.

In the end, choose a paradise where the seasons are like spring, and live a life without any disturbances...

Perfect, so perfect, this is the life I want!

The disturbance has nothing to do with me, I just want to turn into free dust and live in peace.

But this is not such an ambitious dream, is it?It's kind of embarrassing to say it.

Maybe only a bad old man would have this idea of ​​mine, but it is precisely because he has lived for too long that he understands the preciousness of the ordinary.

Merlin sighed, thinking that if he didn't have this damn heart curse, he might have lived this life long ago.

Fate is always playing contradictory jokes, the more Merlin has such negative thoughts, the more difficult it will be for him to relax.

The autumn sun was shining beautifully, and the yard was covered with fallen leaves, crunchy and crisp from the sun.

The warm wind blew across the sky, lifting the wet clothes that were hung high, and the white sheets fluttered like flags.

Alice tucked her messy hair behind her ears, and took care of it seriously. The skirt behind her was raised slightly, revealing her white and round calves like autumn lotus root.

The loose silver hair behind him is intertwined and staggered, making it hard to look away.

Merlin was a little dazed by the aroma coming from the shop. He couldn't tell whether it was from Alice or not.

In all fairness, Merlin felt that Alice was very beautiful now, and all the beauty within reach hit his heart directly.

She is beautiful, gentle, and kind, and can make everyone feel her close attitude.

Although he has a bit of a temper, and from time to time he will be stupid and pretend to be a little guard of justice, but these seem to be harmless.

If Merlin's dream just now was not fake, then Alice was exactly the same as his wife in his heart, and all the conditions were met.

After all, although Merlin is a devil, his essence is still a human heart, and he also likes girls like Alice.

Merlin stared blankly at Alice's slender figure, feeling something touched in his heart

Maybe marrying a woman like Alice wasn't such a bad idea.

Isn't Xiang Xin living a quiet life here in the small town exactly what he was looking forward to?

But it's impossible for Alice to want to be with me, right?The mind is full of great achievements.

Besides, his curse has not been lifted yet, so this quietness is only temporary.

Merlin calmed down a little, and saw that Alice had to stand on tiptoe to hang her clothes due to her height.

So Merlin stepped forward and took the wet clothes from Alice's hand from behind.

"Give it to me, your injury is just right, take a little rest."

"Eh!?" Alice was taken aback, looked up and saw Merlin's chin standing behind him, seriously helping

Did this guy take the wrong medicine?

I don't usually work for myself...

Why did you suddenly become so warm-hearted?

(?-?)? ?

Chapter 9: Monthly Ticket Addition

Merlin took the clothes hanger, put the clothes on, and hung them on a high place.

This sudden approach, a masculine breath rushing towards her face, immediately made Alice a little at a loss.

Alice bit her lip, her face turned red like boiling water, and her heart beat inexplicably accelerated a few beats.

Merlin's overly enthusiastic actions immediately made Alice feel a little overwhelmed, and became flustered in panic.

What are you doing?This guy suddenly cares about him so much, he won't have any plans, right?

Alice coughed twice, tried to calm herself down, and asked as if she didn't care.

"What...what are you doing? I can do it myself, I don't need your help."

"I don't think it's a lot of effort for you to be short? Just leave this kind of thing to me."

Merlin ignored Alice's awkward remarks, thinking that this guy might be happy if he didn't say anything!

"Who is short! Bastard!" Alice bulged her gills angrily, like a puffer fish being stimulated, "Give me the clothes, I'm not disabled, and I don't need your help."

Merlin looked down at the angry Alice, and said lightly, "Can you stop being awkward, my uncle seldom does things for others, you should be very grateful to me."

"No, need, need!" Alice pursed her mouth and pinched her waist, showing an ungrateful look.

"It's rare for me to care about you. Don't be so rigid, okay?" Merlin frowned, feeling that he was kind.

"Hmm..." Alice hesitated to speak, narrowing her eyes and said suspiciously, "You suddenly care about me so much, so there must be some evil intentions?"

"Tsk!" Merlin became embarrassed, thinking that it was rare for him to be a good person, why should he doubt himself?

Seeing that Merlin didn't answer, Alice suddenly showed an expression of enlightenment, "Sure enough, I guessed it right? Give me the clothes, and I can do it myself, so I don't need your help!"

Merlin avoided Alice's outstretched claws, and asked helplessly, "Guess that's right, what can I plan for you?"

"Ask...Ask for my private clothes..." Alice replied seriously.

"No, who would ask for your private clothes, there is no temptation at all, I don't even want to give them for free!" Merlin complained.

"Ah?! You guy who robs women's stockings, you don't have any convincing words!" Alice also replied with a rant.

Merlin couldn't help shedding a drop of cold sweat on his forehead, thinking that his dark history was not ordinary, and it was a bit uncomfortable to be caught by Alice.

"Alice, don't get me wrong, your injury is just right, I'm just afraid that something will happen to you, so it's better for you to pay attention to rest."

"Of course I don't have any plans for you, I'm just worried that your relapse of old injuries will trouble me again, that's all~"

After listening to it, Alice felt relieved, but she was still a little disappointed. She still expected Merlin to take the initiative to care about her instead of having various purposes.

"It's up to you, I won't be grateful to you anyway, hum!"

"Alas..." Merlin sighed, and hung the clothes one by one on the clothes rail, "You stinky bitch, you really have an unforgiving mouth."

Alice secretly glanced at Merlin, then blushed and lowered her head, wondering if Merlin had taken care of her for so many days, should she treat him better?At least thank you very much, right?

So Alice got entangled, two fingers twirling around like fighting swords, and organized a set of more polite words in her heart, but it suddenly turned into a smile on her lips.

"Before you worked so hard to take care of me, I reluctantly thank you, you can accept my thanks with gratitude, hum!"

"..." Merlin didn't speak, but the movements of his hands froze, and a few black lines passed across his forehead, wondering if this guy could speak well?Why are you so proud of your thanks? !Sure enough, you hate me from the bottom of your heart, right?

Alice lowered her head in embarrassment, her expression suddenly became pretentious, and she thought to herself, what are you doing! ?He obviously didn't intend to speak like this, but why did he think so well in his heart, but the taste changed immediately when he said it out of his mouth! ?This is great, Merlin will think I'm a white-eyed wolf who won't be grateful, right?

"Don't worry, I have nothing else to do anyway, just take care of you as my own pleasure." Merlin responded indifferently.

"Well... I... I guessed it a long time ago, huh!" Alice turned her head away angrily, feeling depressed in her heart. Look, she really hates me even more. How can I get closer to this guy? relationship? QAQ...

Both of them were trying to figure out what the other was thinking, and felt that the other was hating themselves for a moment.

However, at this moment, two scavengers suddenly appeared outside the door.

One is an old man with a tall and stooped figure, carrying a walking stick.

The other was a little boy, who looked about five or six years old at most, with thin skin and tender flesh, and a doughy face.

The clothes of the two were a little tattered, and the application was haggard. They looked like they had experienced a disaster and looked very tired.

Although the old and young beggars are very dirty, their behavior is quite polite.

"Your Excellencies, we are refugees from the imperial capital. We have been walking for half a month. Can you give us some food?" The old man stood outside the door, begging with frowning eyes.

The two looked out of the door, showing puzzled expressions. Although they knew that many people had migrated from the imperial capital recently, it was the first time they saw those who couldn't eat.

"Is the situation in the imperial capital getting worse again?" Merlin asked in a low voice.

"Maybe, not everyone left home smoothly, and most ordinary people were embarrassed." Alice responded in a low voice.
