The Unemployed Demon Lord

Chapter 27: The Dilemma of Wangcheng

Joan of Arc has been wandering alone in the ruined royal city since she was defeated in the battle, and never returned to O'Brien Cathedral.

Originally, Archbishop Scott had great expectations for Joan of Arc, but Joan of Arc did not succeed.

Although Joan didn't know what the bishop was thinking now, she didn't have the courage to go back.

Joan of Arc did not expect that Beelzebub still had hidden power in the end, and could destroy the royal city directly and instantly, but this demon was in a playful mood, playing around with everyone.

She now feels the huge gap in strength between humans and demons, and it may be a very difficult and arduous task to exterminate demons.

Joan of Arc felt sorry for herself, lost her fighting spirit, and felt that she was too weak to fight against the demon kings, let alone dream of becoming a brave man.

In the end, Joan was still frustrated in her heart. Not only did she lose to Alice at the beginning, but now she was completely defeated by Beelzebub. She was really a complete loser.

Just when Joan was hiding alone in a corner doubting her life, she heard Alice's voice, which made her feel a little bit shocked.

Standing in front of Joan of Arc, Alice saw that she was covered in injuries and her clothes were torn, as if she had suffered a lot of setbacks, so she asked suspiciously, "...what's wrong with you?"

"Uh!" Joan of Arc came back to her senses, her gaze changed one after another, and finally she lowered her head and remained silent, as if she didn't really want to talk to Alice.

As a brave candidate who had trained together, Alice was much more successful than Joan, and she was always better than her.

This made Joan subtly feel jealous in her heart, and it was a shame for Alice to see her downcast side.

But now that Joan of Arc was bumped into by Alice just after she was defeated, not to mention how uncomfortable she is now, she can't wait to find a crack in the ground to hide.

Seeing Joan's strange reaction, Alice asked, "Why didn't you speak? What happened?"

"It has nothing to do with you, right? Don't block me from the sun, it's an eyesore!" Joan of Arc was completely blunt when she spoke, and she slapped her.

"You?!" Alice frowned and said angrily, "What's your attitude? I'm just asking what's wrong with you!

"What's the matter?" Merlin walked over leading the carriage, seeing that the atmosphere was not very harmonious?

"Hmph!" Alice puffed out her gills angrily, and glared at Merlin to vent her anger. For her, when she was in a bad mood, she could just use Merlin as a punching bag.

"Tsk!

Merlin was speechless.I thought about this stinky woman, and I didn't provoke her, why are you staring at me?

So Merlin looked down at Joan of Arc who was sitting on the ground, seeing her so downcast, couldn't help but want to tease her.

However, when he saw Joan holding the Holy Spear in his arms, his eyes suddenly changed. He recalled the nightmare that the Spear Hero had caused him when he was a child. Come over and observe carefully in your hands.

"Merlin, what are you doing?" Alice Xia Ran was taken aback, wondering why Merlin suddenly robbed someone's property?

Merlin didn't speak at all, and after a few careful glances, he recognized that it was the gun, the weapon of the brave. He once pointed at himself when he was a child, and almost killed Zi 2 directly.

Even now, Merlin can recall the scene at that time, the market woke up in a dream, and was pointed at by the gun hero with a weapon. That was the moment in his life closest to death.

The hero of the gun is a heart disease of Merlin, an existence that must be overcome, just like a child who was bitten by a snake when he was young, and may still be afraid of ropes when he grows up.

The same is true for Merlin, even though the hero of the gun has disappeared for a long time and he has grown up, he still has fear of the hero of the gun deep in his heart.

"Give it back to me!" Joan of Arc suddenly stood up from the ground, snatched back the Holy Spear angrily, and stared at Merlin with disgust and wariness.

Merlin glanced at Joan of Arc, doubts arose in his heart, where did this tomboy get this weapon?Doesn't it belong to the gun hero?strangeness……

"Merlin, why are you robbing others?" Alice whispered dissatisfied.

"It's nothing, I just... care about it." Merlin explained vaguely, he didn't want to talk about his past, but looked at Joan, "Where did you get this weapon?

"Is there any problem?" Joan of Arc responded full of hostility, holding the Holy Spear tightly as if she was afraid that Merlin would snatch it.

In fact, Merlin is not interested in this scarlet demon, but only obsessed with the hero of the gun. "This spear should belong to the hero of the gun, O'Brien, right? It is his most beloved weapon. How could it fall into yours?" In your hand?" son b: "Eh?! Really?" Alice became interested when she heard about O'Brien, the hero of the gun, and carefully looked at the holy storehouse in Joan's arms.

Anyway, Alice was also a brave man in the past, and she has heard a little about the legends about the spear hero of her predecessors.

In the history of the Holy See, the hero of the gun can be regarded as a great man full of legends, especially the story of killing the devil Lucifer II was widely sung.

Alice can see the weapon of this legendary brave with her own eyes, so she will naturally be curious, but Lucifer II is Merlin's mother, what is it inconvenient for her to talk about?

After all, Alice is not a fool, she is always living with Merlin now, and it is too sensitive to mention the past, Joan of Arc looked into Merlin's eyes, and said lightly, "I didn't expect you to be just a black iron adventurer. , I know a lot? This is a weapon given to me by Bishop Scott, which is specially used to slaughter demons.

Embarrassed, Merlin didn't say anything, but continued to ask, "How can a bishop have the weapon of the spear hero?"

"How do I know? The O'Brien Cathedral was once the place where the Gun Warrior grew up. This weapon may have been left by him himself. Joan of Arc said concisely, and it seemed that she didn't really want to talk to Merlin.

Merlin was stunned, thinking about O'Brien Cathedral?Named after the gun hero, or where this guy grew up?Looks like it's worth checking out.

r pee play

After all, because he was once threatened by the hero of the gun when he was a child, Merlin really wanted to fight this man, but it was a pity that the giant monster of the North Sea disappeared mysteriously after it appeared 30 years ago.

"Joan of Arc, what happened? How did you make it look like this?" Alice didn't care about the holy gun, but cared about what happened to Joan of Arc?

Joan frowned, and began to lower her head again and said nothing, feeling ashamed to be seen by Alice in distress.

"Is it so hard to say? We just want to know what happened in Wangcheng." Alice asked urgently.

"...Joan of Arc hesitated for a moment, unable to stand up to Alice's entanglement, so she had to avoid the seriousness and said, "A few days ago, Beelzebub attacked the capital in order to find his sister. Everyone was fighting hard, but the result was very bad. , Her Royal Highness Margaret was kidnapped by Beelzebub as a hostage. If Beelzebub's sister can't be found, she will definitely die. "

"Huh?!... Beelzebub!" Merlin was taken aback when she heard Joan of Arc tell the general situation of the king's city. Beelzebub really left the Demon King's Palace in order to find Miranda. up! ?

That being said, we could run into each other at any moment...

Casually destroying the appearance of the royal city of the human empire, this guy is really foolish.

(:"one)

Chapter 28: The Knight Calls for Help

Merlin recalled what Asmodeus had said to him when he was in Wrexham, combined with the situation in front of him, he immediately understood the general situation.

It seems that after Miranda was taken away, she should be in the royal city of France, otherwise Beelzebub should not have attacked here.

Didn't expect Miranda to be in France, in the same place as himself?

If I had known this, I should have promised Beelzebub to help Miranda and send her back.

But it turned out like this, and there was no way to end it easily.

Really, which idiot provoked this dead girl?Miranda is Beelzebub's lifeblood...

Merlin suddenly felt a lot of pressure, and felt that he was also a little responsible. If he had agreed to help at the beginning, it would not have turned into the situation it is today.

What is it for Beelzebub to slaughter a royal city for his sister?Even if a demon of the same race dared to touch his sister, this lunatic would not miss it!

Merlin, who is also the Demon King, was a little embarrassed. He and Beelzebub were both considered Demon Kings. He also felt a sense of guilt for this lunatic doing bad things.

"Beelzebub attacked the royal city?!"

Alice's eyes widened. She never thought that apart from the fired Merlin, there were other demon kings who could roam around outside.

It was the first time she heard that the demon kings took the initiative to attack the human territory, which was really rare.

Alice thought of Merlin beside her, so she narrowed her eyes and looked at Merlin meaningfully. bt! O Merlin's eyebrows twitched, and he panicked after being stared at.

Alice's eyes were blaming Merlin, as if she was saying, "Look! Demons are indeed villains, stone hammers! They are actually wreaking havoc everywhere without scruple!"

"Cough!" Merlin coughed lightly, and said in a low voice, "What do you think I did? I didn't do it, and I won't take the blame for it.

Alice also lowered her voice, and said secretly, "Aren't you also the devil? What do you think about what your companion has done?"

"I'm a fired little piece of trash and I'm not qualified to comment. Besides, didn't someone provoke Beelzebub? If his sister hadn't disappeared, would he have nothing to do to attack Wangcheng?" Merlin dismissed the blame completely.

"That's okay, right? No matter how many people are killed, it won't solve the fundamental problem, right?" Alice felt that Beelzebub was simply a saboteur, and it even made her doubt Merlin.

"Not all demons are like me. Do you think that if I can talk to you in a pleasant manner every day, other demons can be reasonable?" Merlin asked back, raising his fist to show Alice, "In the demon clan, Fist is the last word, without fist, no one will recognize you."

Chapter 05: SE Xiaozhi

"What are you two talking about secretly?" Joan interrupted dissatisfiedly, thinking that Alice and Merlin were making fun of herself.

"It's nothing." Merlin asked vaguely, "Haven't Beelzebub's sister been found yet?

"If you can find it, will the royal city be destroyed like this? Will Her Royal Highness be forced to become a hostage to buy time?" Joan looked down and lowered her head, "Everything is over, this empire has been destroyed by Beelzebub But I can't do anything, I can only watch...

"Then who is in charge of the royal city now, is it Prime Minister Meadows?" Merlin asked. He had obtained information from the coachman before that the old king was in a serious state of illness, and Meadows was in charge of the empire, but now the identity of the prime minister is very suspicious. .

"For the time being, it is under the management of Lord Blaise. As for Meadows? Heh, I was frightened by the gluttonous demon king and fled away overnight. Now the rest of the king's city are old, weak, sick and disabled, and they were all abandoned by Meadows. " Joan of Arc said in a self-deprecating tone, she ran faster than anyone else despite the hype she was talking about in the parliament.

Hearing what Joan of Arc said, Merlin couldn't help but feel dizzy. Even Miranda couldn't be found, and Beelzebub would definitely not stop unless he punished this dead girl himself and told him to be more honest.

But Merlin didn't really want to meet Beelzebub. Although he was also the Demon King, he wasn't very familiar with him.

But if he continues to indulge Beelzebub's mischief in France, it may interfere with Merlin's own interests.

Merlin wanted to investigate the matter of the blood clan, but the current chaos is so chaotic, what a waste of investigation, everyone in the royal city has run away.

Even the key item that was finally found, Midas, disappeared. Isn't this a waste of time?

Alice also felt a lot of disappointment, but right now she was more concerned about the kidnapped princess, who knew what kind of inhuman treatment she would suffer after being kidnapped by the devil.

"Where is the kidnapped princess?"

"I don't know. I'm afraid only Blaise and the archbishop know about the whereabouts of the princess. I haven't been to church for several days." Joan of Arc replied feeling ashamed.

"Eh?!" Alice was startled, and asked curiously, "Why don't you go back?

"You don't even need to ask why 2 I was defeated and X failed to live up to the bishop's expectations of me, and even... even shamed the owner of this holy spear." Joan of Arc fell into deep self-blame, and did not look up at Alice at all.

"Is the hero of the gun such a great guy?" Merlin frowned, speaking frivolously.

"What do you know?" Joan raised her head and glared at Merlin, "A black iron adventurer also criticizes a brave man?"

Merlin pulled the corner of his mouth, smiled without saying a word, thinking that the number of brave men he hacked to death would be 100 instead of 99. Alice, the daughter of the god of luck, can't be counted. Only this stinky bitch can survive so many brave men. , of course, thanks to the inheritance of the hero's Mithril Armor.

"What is this? I dare not go back because I was defeated? Didn't I go back cheekily when I was defeated?" Alice thought it was no big deal, and it was also a fact that she couldn't beat Merlin. Sr Mu Xiaowan "I'm different from you, I'm a devout believer, you are a hypocrite chasing fame and fortune!" Joan of Arc differentiated herself from Alice very seriously.

"It has nothing to do with this. The existence of crusade against the devil is not what you should do, but the work of the brave, and I am the brave!" Alice pointed to herself, and then smiled awkwardly, "Of course I used to be, And he is also the most inconspicuous among the heroes of all ages, who has no achievements at all, hehe."

"Are you unexpectedly self-conscious?" Merlin muttered untimely.

"G, U, N!" Alice gave Merlin a look that could kill someone.

"What do you mean? Are you mocking me when I lost to you?" Joan's face turned black, and Alice said that she was rubbish. Wouldn't it mean even more rubbish to take herself?
