The Unemployed Demon Lord

Michelle told her story and expressed her doubts about Queen Elizabeth.

Although Merlin had no interest in what happened to Michelle, he was still secretly surprised.

The ruler of the entire empire is not orthodox?But someone pretending to be?

No matter how he thought about it, Merlin felt that this was a very serious matter, threatening the foundation of the empire.

In fact, after the mother was defeated by the hero of the gun, there was also a big demon who wanted to take the position of the demon king.

However, she was hacked to death by Merlin himself. Thinking about Michelle's eagerness for someone to help her, it is not incomprehensible.

After all, when competing at the negotiating table, it is definitely not with the mouth, but with a harder fist.

After listening to Michelle's words, Alice's eyes widened in shock, feeling incredible.

"Queen Elizabeth is not real? It's your aunt Isabella?!"

Michelle nodded and replied seriously, "Although I'm not sure yet, I think the queen mother is very abnormal."

Cecilia and Kyle next to each other didn't speak. They had obviously heard about it, so they weren't too shocked.

"No...it's unlikely, right? Queen Elizabeth is a fake...this kind of thing..."

Alice couldn't believe it, and felt that this incident was too weird, and it was related to the fate of the entire empire. It was really unconvincing just by Michelle's mouth.

"Master Alice, I know that my words are groundless, but I still want you to believe me. No one knows my queen mother better than me. If I hadn't been sure that something was wrong, I would never have escaped from the palace to seek foreign aid. " Michelle said seriously.

"This..." Alice hesitated, unable to agree for a while.

Seeing this, Merlin lowered his voice and said to Alice, "Look, this is definitely a big muddy water, and if you don't do it, it will affect you, so I suggest tactfully refuse, and then we can think of other ways."

Alice didn't speak, but fell silent. She felt that what Merlin said was also reasonable. As an adventurer, she most tabooed getting involved in political disputes.

Moreover, any fool can see that the empire is now in chaos, and the flames of war may ignite at any time. It must not be so easy to help prepare Michelle with this kind of sensitivity.

Alice was deliberating. She took a peek at Merlin and saw the guy's indifferent appearance. Obviously, she didn't want to meddle in other people's business.

"Master Alice, if you are willing to help me, I will give you the greatest reward within my ability." Michelle said in a very sincere tone.

"Miss Alice, you mainly need to protect the safety of Her Highness Michelle. My father will be responsible for revealing the queen's true face." Cecilia helped Michelle speak beside her.

"Yes, the Duke has already started to intervene in this matter, and he will take the elite troops of the Qiangwei family to the capital in a few days. With the intervention of the Duke, you will definitely not be easily involved in trouble." Kyle Seriously.

The doubts in Alice's heart dissipated a lot, but seeing Merlin still unmoved, it seemed that she really didn't want to be entangled in trouble.

However, this task does not seem to be very difficult. It is enough to protect Princess Michelle. Coupled with the pressure of poverty, there is really no choice.

"What do you need us to do?"

When Michelle saw Alice let go, she was overjoyed. It was obviously a big help to win over the powerhouse of the holy rank!

So Michelle cheered herself up and felt that Alice was more reliable than Duke Rose who was vacillating.

"You just need to protect my safety and help me at critical moments, that's all."

"Hmm..." Alice felt that this personal mission was acceptable, and secretly poked Merlin, "How is it? I think it's okay."

"Don't be driven by the immediate interests. I won't wipe your ass for you when the time comes." Merlin said in a low voice, feeling that this was a troublesome matter, which was different from Cecilia's private mission a while ago.

"Do you treat me like a child? Hmph~!" Alice retorted angrily.

Cecilia and Kyle couldn't help whispering secretly

"Kyle, do you feel that Alice has become much more docile and a little clingy to Lord Merlin?"

"Miss, to be honest, I have already felt that Miss Alice cares more about Lord Merlin than before after she became a powerhouse of the holy rank, and she has completely developed in the direction of an old couple."

Michelle was a little strange in her heart. She felt that Alice, as a strong man of the holy rank, had no opinion at all?

It's so strange to always look at the face of the black iron adventurer next to him.

Could it be that this Merlin not only eats soft meals, but is also the head of the family? !

Michelle felt like she was going blind, and wanted to exclude Merlin.

"Merlin, this matter is very important? I hope you will seriously consider it." Alice lowered her voice and said quietly, "And the other party promised not to cause trouble, but they just need us to serve as guards for a while."

"Tsk, I don't want to accept the task of getting involved with the royal family." Merlin said stubbornly.

Alice's expression froze immediately, she stretched out her little hand silently, and said with a dark face, "Repay the money, return the money you squandered in the small treasury to me immediately."

"Uh……

Merlin couldn't help sliding countless black lines across his forehead, feeling awkward about the game.

This stinky bitch is always urging herself to pay back the money like a charter woman. It's really dishonest.

Merlin withdrew his gaze, looked at Michelle, and asked seriously.

"His Royal Highness Michelle, although there is a smell of copper, I still want to inquire about the remuneration. After all, it is related to my life. How much does His Royal Highness Michelle plan to pay us?"

"After the matter is over, I am willing to pay 70 yuan as a reward, and I can pay half of the deposit in advance." Michelle's expression was a little painful, and this was already her limit.

Alice frantically pulled Merlin's sleeve, insinuating nonstop. "70, 70, 70~"

"Uh..." Merlin looked at Alice, and saw with his own eyes that the love and justice in Alice's eyes disappeared, completely turning into a golden $ sign

Alice, this troublesome woman...

Sometimes it's pretty superficial, right?

((???|))

Chapter 18: Contradictions

Although the communication was a bit bumpy, Merlin and Alice reluctantly agreed to Michelle.

If it wasn't for Alice's use of paying back the money as an excuse, she frequently put pressure on Merlin.

It is estimated that Merlin would not agree to such a thing because of his character of being afraid of trouble.

But since Michelle has already promised, she is mainly responsible for her safety and will not let Merlin and Alice get involved in trouble.

With this promise, Merlin felt that it was not unacceptable, it was just a short-term guard, as long as he was not involved in the chaos of the empire, he could reluctantly accept it.

In addition, the family is in poverty now, and the salary of 70W is already a lot, which can solve the urgent need.

So Merlin has very little choice. Although it doesn't matter to eat dirt, he still hopes to live more comfortably.

Moreover, Alice has been conquered by money, and the unscrupulous Lamelin boarded the thief's ship, which made Merlin a little bit embarrassed...

At this moment, Merlin and Alice are going to the mansion of Duke Rose with Cecilia.

Although Michelle has Merlin and Alice as guards, whether she can investigate the truth of the matter depends mainly on the Duke of Rose.

In the carriage, Cecilia and Kyle frequently expressed affection to Merlin, asking for their health

"Master Merlin, do you want to eat fruit?"

"Master Merlin, are you thirsty? Do you want some water?"

"Master Merlin, do you need me to beat your back?"

The two circled around Meilin, this is not the treatment of hired workers at all, it is clearly the uncle!

Kyle was helping to hammer his shoulders behind Merlin, and Cecilia was cutting fruit with her own hands.

Merlin's face was full of laziness, and the sofa mountain slumped on the carriage, probably because it was too comfortable, he hummed from time to time.

Alice next to her looked at Merlin with a cold face, her eyes were not quite right, as if she was very dissatisfied with Merlin's current state.

"Kyle, it's too light, a little strong." Merlin said lightly, feeling that Kyle rubbing his shoulders was too amateurish.

"Good Mr. Merlin, this must be a kind of training in life, right? If you can do small things well, you will stand out in the future." Kyle put in more effort, rubbing Merlin's shoulders, "As expected of Mr. Merlin, every action It’s all full of meaning.”

"emmmmmm..." Merlin kept silent with a dark face, as if he didn't want to destroy his tall image in Kyle's heart.

Alice rolled her eyes, wondering why Kyle thought so much?Merlin is just a villain!It's just that I don't want to give up the free massage worker!Not a noble guy at all!

Cecilia cut the fruit, inserted a piece into Merlin's mouth, and said, "Master Merlin eats fruit, ah~"

Merlin was also not polite, and said critically after eating, "It's not fresh at all."

Alice didn't want to see Merlin's ugly face, covered her eyes, and thought about Merlin...why is he so swollen? !

"What... what!? It's not fresh?" Cecilia put down the fruit plate, showing annoyed expression, "Damn it! I told the servants to buy the fruit that was just picked early in the morning, how dare you deceive me? It seems that It's time to fire up the squid, how can something that is not fresh be worthy of the noble Lord Merlin?"

"emmmmmm..." Merlin was embarrassed to speak again, thinking that he had eaten even the most rotten food, and he was just talking, so he didn't need to be so serious.

Michelle's expression became more and more strange, and she couldn't figure out why her classmate Cecilia was so flattering to a black iron adventurer? !

After all, Cecilia is considered an aristocratic class, so it's hard to understand why she is so humble?

Michelle was a little upset when he saw Merlin's appearance of being a villain, why should he be so crazy when he eats soft food?

Before Michelle could say anything, Alice couldn't sit still, "Hey, you two are in moderation, can you have some dignity? Always please this guy so much, he will swell to explode sooner or later."

"It's okay. It's my honor to serve Lord Merlin. Even small things like pinching my shoulders can make me experience new growth." Kyle said seriously. evil!

"Yes, Lord Merlin's willingness to spare time to help us is already the greatest favor to us. I feel guilty for repaying this level." Cecilia showed a very serious expression.

"You..." Alice was a little speechless, suspecting that they were all blind, why couldn't she see that Merlin was so good?

"Hey, Alice, do you really envy me?" Merlin showed a playful smile.

"Who...who envies you? Evil pessimism!" Alice gave Merlin a white look angrily.

"Tch!" Merlin moved his leg towards Alice, "Here, my uncle allows you to beat my leg, cherish the opportunity."

"Tsk! Go to hell!" Alice gritted her teeth angrily, raised her small fist, and slammed Merlin's thigh hard.

Merlin retracted his legs, and said embarrassingly, "I have a temper, no matter how many people want to hug my thighs, there is no chance."

"I don't care about it." Alice snorted coldly, feeling uncomfortable seeing Merlin surrounded by everyone.

Merlin narrowed his eyes, thinking that it is really not rare, or is it not rare?Don't you just run to clean up the mess every time?

He was too lazy to argue with Alice, and suddenly remembered this mission, and couldn't help but turn to Michelle who had been silent on the opposite side.

"His Royal Highness Michelle, what if Queen Elizabeth is the real thing and everything is your illusion?"

"No, I trust my intuition." Michelle replied in a firm tone, recalling the sapphire pendant, and felt that the probability of it being an illusion was very low.

"I mean, if Queen Elizabeth is a guy, you can't provide any evidence at all, right?" Merlin looked at the imperial princess carefully, feeling that the innocence on her face hadn't completely receded.
