The Unemployed Demon Lord

"Alice was speechless, looked down at the little black-haired girl in her arms, and retorted, "You can't even talk about children!"She is so young, what if you hurt her with your words? "

"We didn't slander this little child either! Old Akalon pretended to be innocent and didn't mention what he and Merlin talked about at all. After all, the little girl couldn't say something like she was delaying someone else when she was present.

"No need to explain, she likes to bite people like crazy, and she never makes sense." Merlin glanced at Alice with a provocative look, "You!" Alice frowned, wanting to strangle Merlin, "Then What were you talking about just now?

"Our old Akalon hesitated for a moment, and said awkwardly, "We are talking about what happened last night, I just asked what happened to you last night? "

"What else can we encounter? We fought several times, and finally let the leader of the mercenary group run away, but we have already destroyed the trafficker's den." Alice sighed, showing a disturbed look, feeling that After arriving in France, everything was not going my way.

"What!? I escaped, so what should we do? Where else can we find clues about the blood race?" Old Akalon frowned, feeling that the clues of the matter were broken again, how can we continue now?

"It can't be said that there is no gain at all, right? There are still some things that make us doubt." Alice raised her head, showing a thoughtful expression.

"Suspicion? What suspicion? Is there a clue?!" Old Akaron said excitedly, more excited than anyone else.

"It can't be said to be a clue, right? It's just that there are many doubts about the mysterious disappearance of some Avignon population." Merlin leaned against the wall and explained casually: "The leader of the mercenary group has close contacts with the lord of Avignon in private.

"I'm afraid there is an ulterior secret in it.

Chapter 7: Merlin is a little flustered

"What!?" Old Akaron's eyes widened, thinking he had heard it wrong, "That wise Countess Camilla has close contacts with traffickers in private!?"

"That's right." Merlin nodded. It was a little hard to believe at first, but so many mercenaries said that this is not a lie. It is very likely that the female lord of Avignon really has some kind of connection with the mercenary leader. It's a protective umbrella, otherwise the mercenary group blatantly kidnapped women in the main city, why wasn't it sanctioned?The guards look like they're dead

"Is this impossible?" Old Akalon couldn't believe it, because it didn't match the rumored glorious image at all, "That female lord is full of wisdom and kindness, how could she be with those filthy The mercenaries come and go closely? This is not in line with reality at all?

"It's true, those mercenaries themselves said that there was a letter exchange, is this still false?" Alice interrupted suddenly.

"

Old Akalon is still a little hard to believe. He always feels that things are a little subtle. The lord who maintains order is in collusion with the traffickers. Why?

It is obviously a hostile relationship, is there any cooperation in terms of interests?He is not a person from the same world at all, and if he fails, he will get angry. Old Akalon feels that a wise lord would never make such a low-level mistake. There may be some misunderstanding in it.

"Is the lord warning the mercenary group? That's why he wrote the letter. It's all for the stability of Avignon?"

"It's possible that Merlin nodded, and added, "But if I were the lord, I would definitely not be so troublesome. It is the most correct choice to launch an army to exterminate them. It is always a hidden danger to keep a misbehaving mercenary group in the main city. It will explode sooner or later, don't they all say that the countess is a wise person?It is impossible not to even realize this. "

Old Akalon frowned slightly, and couldn't help but think about it. What Merlin said was not unreasonable. Generally, the lord has zero tolerance for unstable factors in the territory, and will never let him do anything wrong to destroy stability, like Camilla It is impossible for someone as smart as the countess to make such a low-level mistake, maybe there is something wrong.

"Anyway, the countess is very suspicious, but the dignified lord has a close relationship with the leader of the mercenary group. How do you think there is a big secret in it? Alice paused, and continued to speculate, "The old customer of the mercenary group may be this As for the countess, where were the kidnapped girls sent?If it wasn't for the convenience given by the Countess, even leaving the main city would have been difficult, right?The lord of Avignon may not be a good person, so he must be on guard. K should find a way to investigate her details next. "

"Do you want to use violence directly? Kill the Earl's Mansion?" Old Acaron was a little scared, and his heart was pounding. He was an ordinary adventurer, and if he was an enemy of the lord, he would be an enemy of the French Empire. I can't get along.

"I don't think it's a problem." Merlin said casually, no matter how much he messed up, he wouldn't take it to heart.

"No, there is no evidence now. We just suspect Countess Camilla, and we have not confirmed that she is the mastermind behind the scenes. We need to continue to investigate." Alice said very cautiously. It is not safe to confront the local lord. Grasp it, don't make a move.

"I also think we should be more cautious. That's the lord, the feudal official. Offending the lord is equivalent to offending the whole of France. We can't afford this responsibility. It's very difficult for the Adventurer's Guild to intervene to save us." Old Akaron Looking at Merlin next to him, he asked tentatively, "Are you Merlin? Don't be impulsive. Since the Lord is involved, you should be more careful."

"Whatever, I'm a bit lazy to take care of this troublesome matter. To be honest, I'm so tired and want to go to sleep." Merlin yawned again and again, as if he was really sleepy.

The little girl raised her head, blinked her big eyes and asked, "Mom, is that female lord a bad person?

"Ah?" Alice remembered that there was a child beside her, so she bent down consciously and picked up the little girl, "It might be a bad person, what's wrong?"

"Then mother is going to knock her down?" The little girl asked suspiciously, seeming to have something on her mind

"If it's a bad person, of course mother will get rid of her." Alice responded with a smile, thinking in shame, what is this child thinking in his heart?

"Keep it so?" The little girl frowned faintly, as if she didn't like it very much.

"Eh?! Why?" Alice was taken aback suddenly, thinking what's wrong with beating bad people?Is there something wrong with this child's three views?

"Mom will be in danger if she goes to fight monsters, and then I will lose my mother again. The little girl lowered her head and said in a very sad tone. She looks like she lacks the love of others, especially the care of her mother.

Alice was stunned, looking at the little girl in her arms, feeling mixed feelings in her heart for a moment.

How pitiful is this child, who can't find his biological mother, as if he was abandoned.

Don't want me to fight, just afraid to lose again

After all, he is a clingy baby, so worried about me at such a young age, so cute!

Alice's eyes changed from sympathy to doting,/feeling that this little baby needs others to take care of her. Although she is very clingy, she is cute and just!

"You child, really, why do you think so much?"

Alice held the little girl in her arms, with a loving expression on her face, as if she had forgotten that she was not her real mother!It's like a graduate of a drama master, and I can't find much sense of disobedience at all.

Apparently, Alice had no experience with children, so she held the baby a little tight, which made the little girl look uncomfortable, but she still endured it, as if she cherished the opportunity of being held by her mother.

"Well

Merlin looked at Alice and the little girl, thinking that the atmosphere is getting worse and worse?Did this stinky bitch get into the drama too much, she has already forgotten the fact that she is not her real mother!

o, d mouth r Mu Xiaowan

However, the appearance of Alice holding the child seems to be more attractive than usual, oh my god!What am I thinking! ?Could it be that I also lack love and have no power to resist the brilliance of motherhood! ?

Do not!I am not such a person!How could I appreciate the maternal radiance that emanated from Alice! ?

This is not true!Is it because my ideal is to find an ordinary woman to live in seclusion with, preferably with another child?

And in front of me, it seems that all the ideal conditions have been met, so am I starting to get excited?illusion!It must be an illusion!

Merlin had a strange expression, and turned his face away. Since the ideal deep in his heart was touched, he couldn't help but think wildly.

Old Akalon noticed Merlin's strangeness, and asked in surprise, "Merlin, what's wrong with you?"

"No no no nothing, I may be a little tired Merlin can only use being tired as an excuse, but in fact he is a little flustered.

Seeing that Merlin, who has always been calm and composed, was so weird, old Acaron couldn't figure it out, and scratched Merlin's head with few hairs in doubt.

What's going on here?

Why did you suddenly become so nervous?

Chapter 8: Respite care

Forgive Merlin for seeing the intimate appearance of Alice and the baby, and he will be touched in his heart.

He is not a person with great ambitions, he just wants to lift the curse of his heart, and then live in seclusion.

The picture in front of him is what Merlin is after, so naturally there will be a feeling of longing in his heart.

Fortunately, Alice was busy caressing the little girl, so she didn't notice that Merlin's expression was abnormal.

Old Akalon looked at Alice, then at Merlin, and after thinking for a while, he asked tentatively in a low voice, "Merlin, do you really want a child?"

"No, don't get me wrong, I hate brats the most, how could I like them?" Merlin explained embarrassingly, not wanting to hear old Acaron talking nonsense.

"Is that so?" Old Akalon frowned, and couldn't help wondering suspiciously in his heart that the longing in Merlin's eyes just now was an illusion? < one

Nothing unexpected happened throughout the day, and it seemed peaceful.

Old Akaron's waist injury hadn't healed yet, so he went back to his room to rest early when he learned that he wouldn't do anything today.

Merlin also seemed very tired, and he left Alice's room with old Acaron, and also went to sleep for a while.

However, Alice couldn't rest. She had been taking care of the clingy little guy, and it was difficult to break her heart. She had no rest at all.

I spent the whole day chatting with the baby, trying to find some useful information so that I could find her biological parents.

Lovely Lisa has worked very hard, but the result is not ideal. The little girl has lost her memory completely, and she can't remember anything at all, even her own name?

Alice couldn't help but feel a little overwhelmed. She didn't know that this child was treated like this and sent to an orphanage?

This idea is very unrealistic, the baby is very attached to Alice, and has completely regarded her as a mother.

Now sent to the orphanage, the little girl might think she was abandoned and cry blind.

Alice had no doubt that if she left this little girl now, she would be so sad that she would lose all hope.

So Alice has nothing to do, even if it is only for one day, she must try her best to play the role of mother. In case the little girl loses her memory temporarily, if she can recover her memory one day, then all problems will be solved.

The little girl likes to say some childish things, and her mother always yells, which makes Alice really funny and helpless.

Alice felt that this little baby was very sensible and well-behaved. Which cold-blooded parent would abandon such a cute baby?It's completely incomprehensible.

In the evening, Alice took a hot bath for the little girl and put her to sleep, and finally she was free and finally able to rest.

Although it was only one day, Alice still realized that being a mother is not easy, and it really takes a lot of energy to take care of a baby.

Alice covered the sleeping little girl with a quilt, and touched her chubby little face with her hand.

"mom"

The little girl's guard grabbed Alice's fingers and babbled in her sleep, as if feeling uneasy and worried about being abandoned again.

Alice was stunned, lowered her head, and said in the little girl's ear, "Mom is here, and I won't leave you."

The little girl in her sleep was comforted and gradually became quiet. She no longer felt restless and slept soundly.

Alice looked at the little girl and breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the child might have been abandoned, so cherishing a mother's love always makes people feel pity.

After taking care of the little girl, Alice quietly retreated from the room, ready to go for a walk, dizzy after a busy day.

However, just as Alice went out, she saw Merlin standing outside and did not leave.

"Why are you here? Didn't you go to rest?" Alice was taken aback when she saw Merlin, thinking that this guy had already fallen asleep and didn't care about anything.

"Cough!" Merlin coughed lightly, and said lightly, "I just slept for a while, and I'm not tired anymore. Haven't you rested yet? Let me see what's going on here?" "Oh?Care about me? "Alice frowned. She felt that it was impossible for Merlin to care about her, and it couldn't be said to be caring. I just wanted to ask this child what you plan to do?" Merlin turned around and asked, wondering what Alice thought?Ever wonder what to do with this kid.worker "redundant"

"Alice lowered her head, frowning as if she didn't know what to do, "I don't know now, but this child is so pitiful, abandoned by his parents, I feel a little distressed seeing it. "

A few black lines slid down Merlin's forehead, and then he said, "Then you don't want to leave it behind so easily, you just want to take good care of it first, and help find your biological parents?"

"Yes, that's what I think. You can't leave it alone, right? Even the mother can't recognize such a small child." Alice sighed, her sympathy overflowing.

Merlin looked strange, and continued to ask, "And then? If you can't find your biological parents, do you plan to send them to an orphanage?

"How can this be done! Isn't it too much? If this child is sent to an orphanage, he will definitely starve to death." Alice paused, and said in an awkward tone, "I'm being called mother by her now." , What's the matter with sending her to the orphanage? She will definitely think that she was abandoned by her parents again."
