The Unemployed Demon Lord

Merlin raised his head and regained his usual composure. For the first time, he felt that it was good to pretend to be famous in silence, at least there would be no trouble.

"This Elgin great swordsman... is really good... so awesome..."

"Yeah, the most enviable thing is the female fans. It is estimated that they can pull out the fighting power of a division. If we change the grass fans one night at a time, it will take several days to finish the grass, and there will be no repeats." Hobbs laughed straight, his whole body became aroused, and his eyes were full of envy.

"Uh..." Merlin's expression suddenly became unnatural, he was in a bad mood, thinking of Hobbs, you shameless old thief!What's on your mind! ?Who am I!I have no bottom line in the dark! ?Who would do such a boring thing?Even if I want to do that, my sister will probably kill all the women in Great Britain before I do!

"Oh?" Hobbs' eyes lit up, and he said wretchedly, "Merlin, aren't you envious too? After all, who doesn't want to have female fans, even though I'm an uncle's grade, I'm still young at heart Yes, full of passion~"

"No, no, no, I'm not envious, thank you." Merlin waved his hands again and again, thinking that I'm the great swordsman Elgin, I'm envious!I just hope that there will be less trouble around me!

"Stop pretending, we are all men~" Hobbs hammered Merlin's chest and winked at him.

"Okay, as long as you're happy, ha..." Merlin laughed dryly, thinking that if Hobbs, a wretched guy, hadn't been a strict wife, he might have already embarked on the path of a strong female criminal.

Hobbs took a sip of beer happily, glanced at Lucia in front of the counter, and pulled Merlin secretly.

"What are you doing again?" Merlin frowned, with a tired expression on his face.

"Look at Rukia's current appearance..." Hobbs deliberately lowered his voice, like a thief.

Merlin followed Hobbs' gaze. Rukia leaned on her face with her left hand, and turned the quill with her right hand. Her eyes were dull, and she didn't know where she was looking.Like daydreaming.

The satin-like hair is scattered down, covering half of the face. As the guild's face-worthy kanban lady, Rukia is naturally a cute representative, with an angel face and a devil figure.

However, she who has always been energetic and capable in the past seems to be absent-minded at this moment, as if she has something on her mind.

"What's wrong? Isn't it normal?"

"Normal ghost, can't you see that Rukia's behavior is the same as that of a pregnant girl?" Hobbs frowned, thinking that Merlin shouldn't have noticed.

"Isn't it normal for Miss Lucia to be pregnant at this age? What's the fuss about?" Merlin cocked his mouth and smiled, thinking that Hobbs was like a stalker uncle, staring at other high school girls every day, in the real world , I should call the police on the spot!

"It's nothing to make a fuss about, but do you know who Rukia likes?" Hobbs narrowed his eyes, trying to inspire Merlin's gossip.

"Who... who is it?" Merlin sweated profusely and black lines appeared on his forehead, giving him an ominous premonition.

"It's not obvious, of course it's the popular fried chicken..." Hobbs said seriously, patting Merlin on the shoulder with a solemn expression

"Lucia, a scheming bitch, fell in love with Elgin's legendary swordsman."

(???)?

Chapter 7: The Hero

Hobbs said beamingly, as if mentioning gossip, this uncle would become Kogoro Mori in minutes.

For this kind of old man, gossip is simply the secret magic weapon for his second youth.

Merlin narrowed his eyes, looked at Lucia who was dazed over there, and asked with a surprised expression, "Really? I think Miss Lucia is usually quite rational, and most people don't pay attention to her. They will fall in love with her." A three-no man like Erjin Great Swordsman?"

"You don't understand..." Hobbs tapped his fingers on the table with an old-fashioned expression, "It's called beautiful women loving heroes. There's no reason for that. That girl doesn't want her partner to be an all-powerful man? It just so happens that El Jin Daejian perfectly fits the girls' fantasies, that's why there are so many fans~"

"emmmmmm..." Merlin looked at Rukia in the distance with a complicated expression, "Most of the situations you mentioned happen to girls who have no emotional experience, but Miss Lucia can't do that, right? No matter how you look at her I think she is a mature woman..."

"Tsk! Come on, come on, I'll continue to break the news with you..." Hobbs got excited, he had to get Merlin's approval, "Not long ago, Lucia came to me and secretly asked about Elgin Great Swordsman's information , I made it clear that I have a lot of interest, and it feels like I'm checking my account~"

"You know Elgin the Great Swordsman very well?" Merlin asked anxiously.

"I don't really know much, I still know some basic information, but these are not important." Hobbs waved his hand and continued, "You just need to know that Rukia is interested in the mysterious man Elgin the Great Swordsman. Just fall in love with him."

"This..." Merlin frowned, and asked suspiciously, "Then what is Miss Lucia trying to do? I think it's abnormal for a girl to casually like a man who doesn't even know his name..."

"Let me analyze it for you..." Hobbs took a sip of beer, then put down his glass, and said seriously, "First of all, Elgin's great swordsman is powerful, there is no doubt about it, and it will bring a sense of security to girls. Ergin Great Swordsman is very famous, which will bring a lot of wealth and status. The most important point is that Ergin Great Swordsman is now a popular figure. If anyone becomes his wife, he will naturally become a celebrity! Rukia's concept of choosing a mate is to hope that the other half is Long Aotian, tall, handsome and rich, and attracts everyone's attention, it's that simple and rude."

"Hiss~" Merlin gasped, and said awkwardly, "Why do I feel that what you describe is a scheming whore?"

"Lukia is always a scheming whore, and it's not the first day you know her..." Hobbs glanced at Lucia, and said in a low voice, "I'm telling you, there are many rich kids who are chasing Lukia. Chia, but she doesn't reply to people, and she doesn't completely cut off people's thoughts, just hang around like this, because she will make herself more and more valuable~"

"I'll go..." Merlin narrowed his eyes, thinking that this is too scheming! ?I usually see Rukia as a gentle Kanban girl, but I didn't expect her heart to be deeper than the sea.

"Hmph~" Hobbs shook his wine glass, and said in a tone with a touch of passion, "If you are the great swordsman Elgin, you can go to sleep now, Rukia~"

"Pfft!" Merlin spat out a mouthful of old blood, his whole body was not calm, and he wanted to get out!I am not a new century sowing warrior!

"Why are you excited? I'm joking..." Hobbs looked at Merlin suspiciously, and said lightly, "You are not the real Elgin swordsman, so don't get excited, you can't sleep with Lucia, give up , if Alice finds out, you will be hacked to death by her."

"Yes."

Merlin nodded, thinking what a coincidence, I am Elgin the Great Swordsman...

As for being hacked to death by Alice?Heh~, what a joke.

Merlin did not continue to discuss this issue with Hobbs, but continued to read the newspaper to recover his mood.

A piece of news caught Merlin's attention, and he subconsciously read it out.

"Today, Knight Commander Franklin of the Purple Gold Flower Knights publicly released the news that the Dark Adventurer's Guild, Praise of the Ghost, has entered the empire. Residents are requested to be vigilant and protect their own safety. If you encounter suspicious persons, please notify the local garrison regiment in time... ..."

Merlin couldn't help touching his chin, wondering if this Dark Adventurer's Guild would be so dangerous?It will actually put the entire empire on alert, but it seems that Alice has said something before.

"Oh~, praise to the ghost, there's been a lot of news about this guild recently, and it made many people a little nervous." Hobbs nodded and said something abruptly beside him.

"You seem to know the Dark Guild very well?" Merlin looked at Hobbs on the opposite side.

"It's not very familiar, but I know quite a lot. After all, this giant ghost was called the strongest dark adventurer's guild 30 years ago. To this extent, their methods are extremely cruel, and wherever they go, there will be corpses everywhere, and even the royal families of various countries will not easily provoke them, it is extremely terrifying..." Hobbs said seriously, holding the wine glass in his hand Shaking, it seems that there is no exaggeration.

"Huh?" Merlin became more interested, and continued to ask, "Listen to what you said... This rich ghost looks so strong."

"Thirty years ago, it was definitely a frightening organization, and its attitude was extremely arrogant. Other dark adventurer guilds lived in the dark in a low-key manner, but this ghostly praise just stayed in the sun and swaggered through the human kingdom. , knowing that they are a very dangerous evil organization, but few people dare to provoke them, it can be said that they are very powerful..." Hobbs said seriously, his eyebrows furrowed.

Upon first hearing Merlin, did he feel that this organization was already so powerful?It is impossible for the demons like my own to rampage in the human country.

"If I remember correctly, these desperadoes can do anything. As long as you pay enough money, even the king can be killed for you." Hobbs recalled.

"Really?!" Merlin was a little surprised, the king can be regarded as the supreme ruler, if this can be killed, it would be too crazy to praise the ghost.

"Really, I'm not telling lies. This incident actually happened, and it caused a lot of trouble. Almost everyone knows that the former emperor of Germany, Kaiser Wilhelm II, was murdered by the ghost." Hobbs said with a smile on his face. Seriously, no kidding at all.

"Eh? This is all right!" Merlin raised his eyebrows, feeling incredible.

"Back then, before the killing of William II, the ghost gave out the death notice in advance, which caused panic among the people in Germany, and increased the defense of the palace. Almost all the strong men of the royal family were there, and there were many powerful knights of the holy order. There are still many court magicians, but they still can't stop the people who are praised by the big ghosts from committing crimes. So many guards are hanged up and beaten by the people who are praised by the big ghosts, and their president is even more invincible. In the end, in front of everyone, the head of William II was chopped off..." Hobbs expressed deep fear, and briefly recounted the events that shocked the entire human kingdom 30 years ago.

Merlin's expression changed continuously when he heard it, and he couldn't help thinking about it in his heart.

How crazy is this rich ghost to praise?

He actually has the strength to compete with the royal family of a country...

(??)

Chapter 8: Monthly Ticket Addition

"After that incident, the royal families in the entire human kingdom began to feel insecure and did not dare to easily provoke the giant ghost. Even the whole of Germany chose to swallow their anger at that time, because the strength of the giant ghost praise was too strong to go easily. Resistance, at least relying solely on the strength of the German country alone will not work."

Hobbs said while drinking, he seemed to be familiar with the events of the year, it was simply a living history library

"However, the brilliance of Praise of the Goblins didn't last long. After the death of their president, they became more low-key and no longer as arrogant as before. They wandered around the dark side of various countries. I heard that they have been reduced to a second-rate darkness. The Adventurer's Guild, but I think a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, so there should be some foundation."

"What's interesting is that once the president praised by the ghosts died, the aura of the royal families of the human kingdom returned. They organized a joint army and wiped out the strongholds of the Dark Adventurers' Guild everywhere. Even suspected personnel were killed. The most active ones are The Kingdom of Germany probably wanted to avenge the former king. The iron hooves of the cavalry chased after the Ptolemaic dynasty. In the end, all countries signed a treaty to jointly resist the Dark Adventurers Guild. As long as there are large-scale members of the Dark Guild in a country, all The country must send troops to assist in the crusade, so that things can be stabilized."

"Although the dark adventurer guilds that were hit by the thunder did not all perish, they have all started to behave in a low-key manner and will not act on the bright side. The praise of the ghost is full of legends, representing the strongest force of the entire dark adventurer. And the trend of pouting in the sun, but with the death of the powerful president, everything has come to an end."

After listening to this, Merlin felt sobbing, silently drank a sip of beer, his eyes flickering.

Regarding the praise of the hero, Merlin's evaluation was too crazy, to the point of being defiant.

How dare you kill the supreme ruler of a country? !Who would dare to do this if there is no solid background behind it! ?

However, Haogui Lizan dared to do this, and he did it by relying on his own brute force alone, without any pretense.

Merlin felt that if it were placed in the real world, the group of people praised by the rich ghost would be reckless and iron-headed children, and they would not play their cards according to routine.

Moreover, when killing the German emperor, Qian also issued a notice in advance, "I'm going to kill you soon, just wash your neck and wait for me."

How arrogant is this **** to do such a thing?He is not afraid to increase the difficulty of the task, but he is confident in killing the royal family of Germany.

Merlin felt a bit dumbfounded, and thought that if it was in the real world, Haogui praised this group of people as game lunatics, and they didn't play games that were not the highest difficulty, and their operations were against the sky!

"Hearing what you said inside and out, the president praised by the big ghost is amazing in strength?"

"It's not only amazing?! Palmer, the tycoon of the flames, was able to dominate one side 30 years ago, making countless people dare not speak out. Even now, he is still a first-class powerhouse. Take our British Empire alone. Let’s just say, the only one who can fight against him is the number one knight of thorns, not counting the legendary old monsters who can’t see the end of the dragon…” Hobbs said seriously, and then felt something was wrong, “ Ah, no, we also need to add Elgin the Great Swordsman, two people."

Merlin smiled and said nothing. He felt that what Hobbs said was wrong. There should be almost no one who could fight against him. Is there such a thing as Palmer, a mere flame ghost?I have never heard of it myself.

"Palmer's strength is unquestionable. It can be called the overlord level 30 years ago. At that time, he was able to defeat Germany's holy rank powerhouses one by one. He knew that his strength was probably close to the peak of the holy rank. Those who The knights who protected William II were not vegetarians, and they were all strong now, but they were defeated by Palmer alone, and even beheaded the old king in front of his face, severely humiliating the royal family of Germany What kind of concept is this? It proves that Youyan Haogui didn't use all his strength to achieve this level..." Hobbs gasped and said, although it was only his own speculation, it was still true.

Youyanhao Palmer's ghost is at the peak of the holy rank, unique in the Dark Adventurers Guild, so powerful that he will not easily fear any force.

Cutting off the head of William II was only a task. Even if so many powerful members of the royal family rushed forward, Palmer could not use his full strength.

Otherwise, Palmer would not have released the assassination notice with confidence, because from the very beginning, he had treated the powerful German royal family with contempt.

Among the powerhouses of the German royal family 30 years ago, for Palmer, none of them could fight.

If Palmer attacked with all his strength, he would be able to face Malygos, the holy dragon of frost, without losing the upper hand.

Merlin curled his lips in disdain, and said with a meticulous expression on the walk, "Since you said that such a powerful ghost is so powerful? How did you die in the end?"

"This is bad luck. A big event happened 30 years ago. The legendary North Sea monster appeared in the Norwegian Sea and began to crazily erode the land and passing merchant ships." Hobbs raised his eyelids, as if he was recalling carefully "Think about what kind of monster the North Sea giant monster is. It is a legendary sea monster that has existed since the age of the gods. I am afraid it is not an existence that humans can contend with. The giant monster taught how to be a man with its tentacles, and was directly beaten to death on the spot..."

"Huh?!" Merlin frowned. What he was concerned about was not Palmer, the ghost of Youyan, but the crusade against the giant monster of the North Sea. "Why did so many people go to conquer the giant monster of the North Sea 30 years ago?"

"On the surface, it is said to guard the sea routes of human beings, but there is a saying among many people that... the giant monster of the North Sea guards the cemetery of the gods, or the treasures left by the gods. Anyway, it may be the gatekeeper of some kind of secret realm. Yes, I'm too weak, so I don't know about the specific things, but only the super bosses can participate in the crusade, and we can only hear hearsay as an after-dinner conversation for small salted fish like us." Hobbs Drank the beer in the glass.

Merlin thought of the brave man with the spear. He heard from Alice that this guy also participated in the crusade against the North Sea giant monster, and then disappeared mysteriously. Could it be that there really is some kind of secret realm?

"Hobbs, I heard that the Holy See's spear hero is also in the crusade lineup. How much do you know about him?"

"Oh~, the hero of the gun, I know it, one of the top ten legendary heroes, he killed the man of the great devil Lucifer II with only one person." Hobbs put on a clear expression.

"Tell me if you know..." Merlin suddenly became interested. Maybe Hobbs knew some secrets.

"At that time, the lineup of the crusade team was very luxurious. Powerful people from all walks of life came out, and some old monsters that had disappeared in the world also appeared at that time." Hobs paused, and continued to recall.

"The hero of the spear is one of the most dazzling powerhouses..."
