The Unemployed Demon Lord

Merlin could no longer understand what Alice was thinking, and asked, "Then what exactly do you want?

"Alice sighed, showing a somewhat upset look, "I'm not very clear either? "

Merlin narrowed his eyes, looked at Alice who was uncertain and hesitant, and speculated, "You don't want to adopt this little kid?"

"Ah!? What did you say!?" Alice was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and her whole body became startled, "How could I adopt a child for no reason? Why do you say that about me?" ?”

"I think you are obsessed with being a mother. How well you interact with that child. It seems like you really want to be your own." Merlin showed a smile that was not a smile, as if he was mocking Alice.

"How is it possible!? With which eye do you see that I am obsessed with being a mother? Don't talk nonsense, okay?" Alice rolled her eyes at Merlin, seemingly still very sensitive, "If I don't say I am her mother, this child will cry , am I helpless?

"Really?" Merlin pursed his lips, not really believing what Alice said, it was obviously a cover-up, "The motherly radiance that you radiated from holding the child just now, isn't it fake?

"I didn't think about adopting her, and our situation is not suitable for adopting a child." Alice frowned, and explained in a very serious tone: "It's just that this child has lost his memory and can't remember his biological parents. Can't just watch her wandering outside.

"I plan to take care of this child for the time being, and send her back when she remembers who her real parents are.

"Besides, I've never been married. I'm helpless to be called mother for no reason!"

"It's just like: it's like being played by unscrupulous men and then abandoned, becoming a single mother, it's too embarrassing (. δ6)

Chapter 9: Dinner Invitation

"What if the child can't recover his memory?" Merlin asked blankly.

"Then...then...Alice hesitated, obviously unable to say why.

"Then take care of it all the time." Merlin helped Alice say the answer.

"..." Alice looked at Merlin in surprise, wondering if Merlin also wanted to adopt this child, then...wouldn't it be a family of three?

"Do you think I'm a fool?" Merlin narrowed his eyes and said seriously, "Is this different from adoption? Are you bullying me for not reading enough?"

A drop of cold sweat dripped down Alice's forehead, and she said awkwardly, "Then what do you want to do? Do you want to leave it alone, are you a devil?

"I was originally." Merlin spread his hands and said.

"Uh, I don't care. Anyway, I won't just leave this child behind. My conscience won't let me do that." Alice said in an unquestionable tone, seemingly ready to adopt.

"Alice, please be realistic, okay?" Merlin was speechless at Alice's tough attitude, completely disregarding the situation. We are not in Britain now, but in France. What is our mission?Have you not forgotten? "

"Find Dracula, and then kill it to lift the short-lived curse of Arnold's family." Alice remembered quite clearly, and did not forget what she was here for.

"That's right, that's our original mission. Now it's inconvenient for you to take this child with you. We will experience all kinds of dangers. Do you think we will have extra energy to take care of this child? If No, aren't you harming her in disguise? Merlin tried to persuade Alice that she should not be so kind, and it was really troublesome to bring a child around in a foreign country.

It wasn't that Merlin was too cold-blooded, but that after weighing the pros and cons, Merlin felt that it would be better to leave this little girl alone for the time being.

If you really want to bring such a small child, who will take care of her?Alice?Then it is only left to complete the task by yourself.

"...Alice hesitated, and after thinking about it, she could only choose a compromise, "Or help this girl find her parents after completing the task?"Anyway, I can't let her go.

Merlin had given up on persuading Alice. It is estimated that this stinky bitch has already been conquered by the little girl's cuteness.

However, it is not impossible to complete the task first, and then help find the parents. It is better than carrying it with you on the way to perform the task.

"Then... where do you plan to board this child temporarily? Orphanage?

"The orphanage is definitely not good. The child has been abandoned before. If he is sent to the orphanage, he will definitely think too much." Alice rejected this suggestion.

"Then I have to find someone to take her first..." Merlin rubbed his forehead, but he couldn't think of a good way in a short time, and he didn't have any acquaintances in France except old Acaron.

Just when the two were uncertain about paying attention, dense footsteps sounded from the fighting in the tavern and hotel, and there seemed to be many people listening to the frequency.

Camilla's subordinates came here with a team of private soldiers from the Earl's Palace. They wanted to find out which room Merlin and Alice lived in, but when they went upstairs, they were standing in the corridor talking about things. .

Both Merlin and Alice wore adventurer certificates around their necks, which already fully demonstrated their identities.

So Camilla's subordinates stepped forward, forced a smile on their pale faces, saluted the two, and said very politely, "The two are adventurers from Britain, right?

"Is there something wrong?" Merlin looked at the man in front of him, he looked very thin, the kind who could turn three times when the wind blew.

Camilla's subordinates raised their heads, knowing Merlin's true identity, especially when they were stared at by those ruby-like eyes, they couldn't help feeling a wave of fear in their hearts.

Is this really the fearsome Great Demon King?Doesn't seem to have an extremely vicious aura?It's almost like an ordinary human being, but these eyes are full of deterrence, and you can't see any emotion. How many people have you hacked before you have such cold eyes?

Camilla's subordinates lowered their heads, subconsciously avoiding eye contact with Merlin, and even had the urge to stay away from danger.

"Hey, what can I ask you? What are you thinking?" Merlin frowned, not feeling very fond of this group of uninvited guys.

"Ah, I'm sorry sir, I was distracted." Camilla's subordinate quickly apologized, suppressing his nervousness and said, "The lord of Avignon would like to invite the two of you to dinner. Tell me about the Earl's Palace?"

"Looking for us? Why?" Alice pointed to herself in amazement. Now she was suspecting that Countess Camilla had something wrong, but she came here uninvited and wanted to have dinner with her?Do you know what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd?

"Yes, it's the two Your Excellencies, why are you together? You will find out as soon as you go." Camilla's subordinates responded politely.

Merlin and Alice looked at each other, feeling very puzzled. They were about to trouble the lord, but the lord came to him himself.

The two came to one side and whispered in a low voice, deciding whether to go or not. It always felt like a grand banquet, and there was no return. "Merlin, why did the lord of Avignon invite us to dinner?" Alice quietly said ask.

"I don't know, but isn't it very likely that the leader of the mercenary group went to the Earl's Mansion to take refuge? It might be about this matter." Merlin looked at the group of people, all of whom had weapons in their hands. It's not like having a pleasant dinner together. If you refuse, you will probably use force. In fact, Merlin is thinking too much. There are so many people here just to support the scene. The other party knows his identity as the devil and has long since given up on him The plan of force will not work. F Mu Xiaowan, "What the hell is this countess thinking? Why did she come to her door at such a time? Could it be because we moved her cake?" Alice frowned.

"It's possible. This group of people came with bad intentions. It's better to be careful. The place where we are staying can be easily found. It is obvious that we have investigated secretly." Merlin speculated, and could see that this group of people went straight to himself and Alice. come.

"What should I do? To go or not to go?" Alice was asking for Merlin's opinion.

"Go, you can finish the meal for nothing, why not go?" Merlin said as it should.

"Hey! Are you serious?" Alice stomped her feet angrily, and frantically gave Merlin angry eyes in protest.

"Cough! This opportunity is rare, don't you wonder what kind of person this female lord is?" Merlin asked back.

Alice thought for a while, then nodded and said, "Okay, let's go to the banquet, do you want to bring the baby, she doesn't look like she's full for dinner!" Merlin rolled his eyes and said in a tone of hatred : "You really think of yourself as your own mother N"

Chapter 10: Hongmen Banquet?

"...That's not it!" Alice blushed and stared at Merlin angrily, "I'm just worried about the child waking up hungry at night, and the child doesn't know why, he eats very little, and he doesn't seem to like eating very much. "

"No, wouldn't it be fine for the two of us to come back earlier? Wouldn't it be good to let old Mr. Akalon take care of the little girl for a while?" Merlin felt that it had nothing to do with old Akalon taking care of the little girl. Ruth went to meet the countess.

Alice hesitated for a moment, and felt that it was not impossible, as long as she came back earlier, otherwise she was a little worried about the child.

If the little girl wakes up suddenly and cannot find her mother, she will definitely cry and make trouble.

"…All right.

Although the voices of Alice and Merlin's conversation were very low, they were still faintly heard by Camilla's subordinates. Although the information they heard intermittently was not complete, they still had children?This news should be reported to Camilla-sama.

This human woman is a mithril adventurer, not so easy to deal with.

But a weak child is very easy, maybe kidnapping a child can control the two of them...

At night, Merlin and Alice had arrived at the Earl's Mansion.

When the two were about to leave, they had asked old Akaron to help take care of the little girl.

Knowing that Alice, you and Merlin were invited to dinner by Countess Camilla, old Acaron was very surprised, but he still told you to be careful.

a little play

If Merlin and Alice didn't come back for a long time, old Acaron said that he would go to the Earl's Mansion to look for them.

The dim candlelight emitted a dim light, and there were only three people in front of the long dining table, Merlin, Alice, and Countess Camilla.

The table was full of sumptuous dinners, and Merlin stared straight into his eyes, thinking about what to do with the grilled chicken later, or whether the big steak next to him was ornately decorated around, making the fortified castle very solemn, so In a private environment, it seems to be talking about some secrets.

Camilla laughed a lot at Merlin and Alice, and didn't speak first, but was thinking about how to speak, and invite the two plague gods away without revealing that she was a vampire.

This is the two of them?Doesn't look like a good match?How did this human woman seduce the demon monarch?Just relying on the pair of fake breasts, just kidding: If I deal with this woman alone, I can probably be evenly divided, or even have the upper hand, but the...

Camilla looked at Merlin seriously, and couldn't help becoming a little more serious. Is this the number one devil king?Why is there no breath of demons at all, but looks like an ordinary human being.

If I hadn't already obtained the exact information, I wouldn't even take a second look at such an ordinary guy.

However, being able to remain so calm here is worthy of being one of the seven monarchs of the Demon Race, who can maintain reason in any situation.

Unlike the human woman next to me, who looked at me with hostile eyes as soon as I came up. Isn't such an obvious hostile look revealing my inner thoughts?

It seems that I have been found to be very suspicious. Even if I don't invite them to dinner today, they have already planned to deal with me, right?

Here, Camilla speculates about various situations in her heart, thinking that Merlin and Alice are very hostile, but the real situation is Merlin: should I eat the chicken leg first or the steak first?I want both, the chicken leg looks delicious, but there is only one steak, I should eat the steak first, otherwise Alice will snatch it and I won’t have it, this bitch will never let me.

Alice: Did I make a mistake! ?Why is this female lord's tits so hot! ?Are you tearing up your underwear?I hate women with bigger tits than me!Luckily, Merlin is working hard on the drumstick, so I'm relieved.

"Cough!" Camilla coughed lightly, and said with a polite smile, "Welcome to my castle, I don't know if you are satisfied." Satisfied and satisfied. Merlin nodded frequently, no matter what, the table full of dishes satisfied him.

"Tsk!" Alice touched Merlin with her elbow, signaling him not to forget what he did here.

"Ah..." Merlin raised his head, thought for a while and said, "Satisfaction is satisfaction, but I don't know why the lord is looking for us.bookSF

Small story of CE

"This... of course is to thank you for your outstanding contribution to Avignon? Otherwise, why do you think I invited the two of you to dinner?" Camilla said with a smile.

"Have we made an outstanding contribution to Avignon?" Merlin's mind was full of question marks, and he didn't remember what good things he had done?

"Is there some misunderstanding, my lord? We have never done this kind of thing before?" Alice responded seriously.

"Aren't you the two adventurers who wiped out Dick Turpin's mercenary group?" Camilla said meaningfully, carefully observing the reactions of Merlin and Alice.

Merlin and Alice looked at each other and didn't say a word. Originally, they suspected that Camilla had colluded with the mercenary group because of this matter, but now the other party took the initiative to mention it and was given credit. This made the two of them wonder. I don't understand. Could it be that Camilla and the mercenary group are not in collusion, but simply have some kind of connection?

"This credit is not small. Dick Turpin's mercenary group has always been a factor of instability in Avignon. They often engage in kidnapping and human trafficking. I have long wanted to get rid of them, but I haven't found a better opportunity. "Camila poured dirty water on the mercenary group, and put aside all her own affairs, "You have unintentionally done me a big favor, and I invite you to dinner, which is my thanks to the two of you.

Merlin frowned, wondering if Countess Camilla had nothing to do with those mercenaries?Impossible?So many people said that she and the mercenary leader often exchanged letters. Is this what they should do if they want to get rid of the other party? , h "The credit is not considered. We are running to Avignon and people often disappear mysteriously. It is easy to wipe out the mercenary group. You don't need to mind." Alice responded coldly, feeling that the other party was really enthusiastic.

"You two don't need to be modest. Although it was a mistake, you have helped me a lot and relieved me of a serious problem. I should thank you very much.

After Camilla finished speaking, she clapped her hands, and the subordinate outside the door came in, took out a crystal card from her pocket, and put it directly in front of Alice and Merlin.
