The Unemployed Demon Lord

This made Alice very upset, and her whole mood was a little depressed.

Although being molested by an idol in her heart doesn't seem to be a bad thing, Alice doesn't like Elgin, and being molested makes her feel hard to calm down, and she feels a little disgusted.

Alice was making breakfast, which was simple thick soup and bread. She stared at the boiling water in front of her for a long time, then subconsciously looked back at Merlin's kennel, which is the sofa Merlin used to sleep on, thinking

Are you not coming back today?

Really, don't tell me where you went?

It stands to reason that Merlin can't leave me behind, after all, there is still a joint debt, and she doesn't seem to want to go back to the hometown of the demons.

It can't be the occupational disease of being a cowherd, acting like a cow or a horse for a rich woman, exchanging your body for money, right?

hateful!What's so good about a rich woman?

Sooner or later, I want to become a rich woman, so that this bastard can't afford it, and I hit him with a gold coin and knelt and licked my shoes with my tongue, hehe!

Merlin didn't know about Alice's "big ambitions"

At this time, he had already arrived at the door of the house, and was hesitating whether to go in or not.

Merlin stood at the door, rubbing his chin in a thoughtful state.

He didn't care much about being slapped by Alice before, after all, he didn't know who he was, and anyone would be angry if he was molested by a stranger.

Merlin thought that since Alice would go to the capital to look for him, it might be because she was too worried, and it was easy to see that she had lost a lot of weight, so he was indeed a little too much.

Merlin regretted only leaving Alice a letter, and left without saying goodbye. Some things really need to be made clear in person.

Now Merlin has a strange feeling in his heart, like a child who has made a mistake and is afraid to enter the house.

Merlin felt that this was not a good omen, why was he afraid of Alice?A mere defeated general, does he still want to turn the world upside down?

But Merlin thinks about it and thinks that he is at fault first, being too arrogant may make Alice even more dissatisfied, so let's worry about her feelings a little bit.

Merlin took a deep breath, showing an application to fight to the end with Alice, the little guard of justice, opened the door and walked in

"Chuck! There was a loud noise in the sky, and Lao Tzu made his debut!"

Merlin's idea was very simple, as long as he was thick-skinned, he wanted to use his enthusiasm to cover up his embarrassment, and finally smiled to wipe out his grudges or something.

However, the truth is not that simple, Alice's reaction seemed extremely cold...

The thick soup on the stove was gurgling. Alice was wearing an apron, holding a spoon in her hand, and looked at Merlin with a blank face. The atmosphere fell into a deathly silence.

God!Actually came back?It's not a dream, is it?

Alice withdrew her gaze. She didn't expect Merlin to come back so suddenly. Although she was excited inside, she didn't know what to say.

"What are you choking on? You're so grown up and still cute, be more mature."

"Uh..." Merlin was stunned as soon as he came up, feeling a little unbalanced in his heart, and said in a reminding tone, "Hey, Alice, I'm back, don't you even have a word of welcome?"

Alice glanced at Merlin, with no expression on her face, showing a cold expression, "Oh."

Merlin wiped off the cold sweat on his forehead with his hands, he was tangled up in his heart, frustrated by Alice's cold reaction, wondering if everyone was in a hurry to find me in the imperial capital?Why is my reaction like this when I come back now, shouldn’t I be crying with joy...

Alice concentrated on making her own thick soup, pouted her mouth coldly on the surface, and put on an appearance of not getting close to strangers, but in fact, she had already laughed like a flower in her heart

This guy is back.

It's a bit of a conscience...

so happy~

(...???...)

Chapter 2: Old Karma

Merlin's expression became complicated, and Alice's reaction was completely different from what he had imagined.

In Merlin's impression, Alice should be a very persistent person, and it is estimated that there is little room for sand in her eyes.

This time I suddenly left without saying goodbye, no matter how you think about it, it is quite an exaggerated matter, and I should be asked to get to the bottom of it.

However, Alice's reaction surprised Merlin, which was a little hard to accept.

To be honest, Merlin was already prepared to be interrogated by Alice, but it didn't seem to work, and Alice didn't seem to care about it.

"Alice, I left without saying goodbye for more than a month, please give me some feedback, please?"

"How do you want to see my reaction?" Alice turned her head and looked over.

"Any reaction is fine. Don't be too calm like you are now?" Merlin put down the salute on his body, spread his hands and said, "Your appearance makes me very uncertain. Really, I feel very uneasy. , It's like... just like facing a poisonous snake, it seems to be very quiet, but in fact there is a danger of being bitten at any time."

After hearing Merlin's analogy, Alice immediately rolled her eyes, put down the spoon in her hand, and responded angrily.

"So that's it. In your eyes, you treat me like a poisonous snake and avoid it? Which eye do you think I look like a poisonous snake? I have never been evaluated like this before!"

"Don't lose your temper suddenly, okay? I'm just making an analogy." Merlin responded awkwardly.

"I think you are clearly insulting me. Everyone calls me a little angel, but you treat me like a viper." Alice glared at Merlin with sharp eyes, "Tch! Heartless scum..."

"Uh..." Merlin was speechless, with a drop of cold sweat streaming down his forehead, thinking that he was just making an analogy, why is this guy Alice so serious?

"Okay, since I'm a poisonous snake, isn't it dangerous for you to be with me? Then pack up your things and leave as soon as possible. I rented this house in the first place, huh!" Alice looked proud and confident.

"Hey, you bastard, did you make a mistake, and you yelled at me as soon as you came back, isn't that unethical?" Merlin frowned.

"I never reason with demons, hum!" Alice snorted coldly, her little nose turned up to the sky.

"Don't get me wrong, I didn't mean to insult you, it's just that you are abnormal now." Merlin responded solemnly.

"What's wrong with me? It's obvious that you have a problem with your eyes."

It is inevitable that Alice still has resentment in her heart for Merlin not making it clear to herself and leaving for so long on her own.

So even though Alice didn't say anything, she would subtly mock Merlin, so that she would be more balanced in her heart.

"I've been away for more than a month, and now I finally come back, can't you give me some feedback?" Merlin narrowed his eyes.

"How can I react? Don't you want me to wave the flag and welcome you back?" Alice pouted, with disgust written all over her face.

"It's not like that, according to your personality, you should get to the bottom of my whereabouts. It's better to write a self-criticism and give you something?" Merlin shrugged his shoulders.

"Why do you think I'm such a strict person?" Alice said dissatisfied.

"Because you are this kind of person, Miss, please be a little self-aware. I usually get asked all kinds of questions when I drink with Hobbs. Is it okay to leave without saying goodbye for more than a month?" Merlin paused and asked tentatively. "Are you trying to tie me to a chair and torture me to extract a confession, and let me tell the truth about the past month and a half..."

"Well……"

Alice obviously hesitated, and she seemed a little moved by this appearance.

It's not like Alice didn't think about asking the bottom line with a tough attitude. She wanted to crush Merlin hard in her dreams.

However, this kind of thing is not realistic at all. To extract a confession by torture, you need to crush Merlin with your own strength, otherwise there is no deterrent effect at all.

Alice knew that there was a huge gap in strength between herself and Merlin, and there was nothing she could do about this guy, so she should go to bed and sleep, because there was everything in her dreams.

"I... I don't want to know where you've been fooling around! What does it have to do with me? I'm not interested in your private life!"

Alice said a lie without blushing or panting. She said she was not interested, but she really cared about it in her heart. She was looking forward to Merlin honestly confessing to herself.

If Merlin wanted to deliberately conceal it, Alice had no choice but to give up.

"Huh?!" Merlin's eyes widened slightly, feeling a little bit of astonishment, feeling that this is not Alice's usual style, "You really don't want to know what I have been doing for more than a month? Don't you have any interest?"

"This one……"

Alice was shaken, seeing Merlin's playful smile, she felt resentment in her heart.

She felt that she was always being led by the nose by Merlin, and the thoughts in her heart would always be penetrated by this guy.

How could Alice not care what Merlin did?It's just that I'm too embarrassed to stalk and ask, it seems that I am a little narrow-minded, and I will be disgusted if I am too nosy.

I and Merlin are just living together, not husband and wife in the true sense, and it's not good to take care of some things too much.

In fact, during this period of time, Alice has reflected on herself, wondering if she is asking too much of Merlin, always wanting to enter his world and let him become what she wants to be.

Perhaps it was because of his too radical thoughts that Merlin felt a little disgusted, which caused him to leave without saying goodbye.

This makes you more worried, Alice. Recalling what Merlin said, I feel that although the two are living together now, private space is still necessary.

After all, everyone has secrets that they don't want to tell others. Merlin has them, and Alice has them too. Being too aggressive will definitely cause dissatisfaction.

That's why Alice's attitude has changed a lot now. Instead of pressing Merlin to get to the bottom of it, she treats it with a more gentle attitude.

"I'm not interested, I don't want to know. If you wanted to tell me, you might have said it already?"

Merlin frowned, wondering what happened to Alice?Wouldn't you usually point at my nose and yell that you will be lenient when you confess and be strict when you resist?How did she evolve towards a Buddhist girl now...

"But..." Alice's eyes drifted away, and she changed the subject of her muttering, "If you have to say something, I can barely listen to it. Of course, I didn't just say that because I wanted to know!"

"Ha..." Merlin laughed dryly, relieved a little, and went around in a big circle, but still wanted to know. Sure enough, Alice was still the same. "Actually... I... do have something to ask you..." Alice looked Get tangled up.

"Ask, it's okay." Merlin nodded, as if he had been prepared.

"Aren't you..." Alice hesitated for a moment, with two blushes on her face, she asked in a low voice, "Going back to your old business? And... started to sell flesh and blood again..."

"Uh..." Merlin's face was expressionless, and he felt a little hopeless.

"Shut up Alice."

"You don't want to defile people's innocence."

"Quickly stop the dirty delusion in your head."

(??)

Chapter 3: Monthly Ticket Addition

"Didn't you go back to your old job?" Alice was surprised, thinking that the previous letter said that she would go to the imperial capital to find a rich woman, so she just picked up her old job?Sure enough, rather than being an adventurer, does Merlin prefer to eat soft food and be taken care of?

"Go back to your old job, sister? Don't think of me as a guy with no limits, okay? In your eyes, am I such a man without pursuit?" Merlin frowned, emphasizing that he was a man with ideals, Those who have pursuit don't bother to return to their old career.

Alice thought about it carefully, and recalled Merlin's lazy appearance in the late stage of cancer, and immediately nodded very seriously, "Well, based on your past performance, I think it is very likely that you will return to your old business secretly, after all, that kind of business Making money is much easier than being an adventurer."

"Go away, talk to me well..."
