The Demon King Who Lost His Job

Merlin stared at Alice's slender figure blankly, and was touched in her heart.

Maybe it's not too bad to marry a woman like Alice.

Isn't it exactly what you expect to live quietly in a small town like your heart here?

But Alice, this guy can't want to be with me, right?I am full of my mind to accomplish a great cause.

Moreover, his curse has not been lifted, and this silence is only temporary.

Merlin calmed down for a while and saw that Alice had to stand on tiptoe to hang her clothes because of her height problem.

So Merlin stepped forward and took the wet clothes in her hand from behind Alice.

"Give me, you just happened to be hurt. Let's take a rest."

"Huh!?" Alice was startled, she raised her head and saw Merlin's chin standing behind her, helping with seriousness

Did this guy take the wrong medicine?

I don’t usually work for myself...

How come you suddenly become so enthusiastic?

(?-_?)??

Chapter 9: Monthly Ticket Plus

Merlin took the hanger, put the clothes on, and hung them on a high place.

This sudden approach, a masculine breath rushing towards her face, immediately made Alice feel a little at a loss.

Alice bit her lip, her face flushed like boiling water, her heartbeat speeded up inexplicably for several beats.

Merlin's too enthusiastic behavior immediately made Alice feel a little at a loss, and panicked.

What's up?This guy is suddenly so concerned about himself, will he have a plan?

Alice coughed slightly, trying to calm herself down, pretending to ask without paying attention.

"What...what? I can do it myself, without your help."

"I don't think you are too short to be strenuous? Just leave this to me."

Merlin ignored Alice's awkward remarks, thinking that if this guy didn't say anything, he might be happy in his heart!

"Who is short! Bastard!" Alice puffed up her gills angrily, like a stimulated pufferfish, "Give me the clothes, I am not a disabled person, and I don't need your help."

Merlin looked down at the angry Alice, and said lightly, "Can you stop being awkward, this uncle rarely helps people, you should be grateful to me."

"No, need, need!" Alice pursed her small mouth and pinched her waist, putting on a look of impassion.

"It's rare for me to care about you once. Don't be so stiff, okay?" Merlin frowned, feeling that he was also kind.

"Um..." Alice stopped talking, narrowed her eyes and said suspiciously, "You suddenly care about me so much, isn't it an unruly attempt?"

"Tsk!" Merlin was embarrassed, wondering if he is a rare good person, why should he be suspicious of himself?

Seeing that Merlin didn't answer, Alice suddenly showed an expression of enlightenment, "Sure enough, I guessed it right? Give me clothes and get enough food and clothing. I don't need your help!"

Merlin avoided the paw stretched by Alice, and asked helplessly, "Guess the right fart, what can I do with you?"

"Ask... for my private clothes or something..." Alice answered very seriously.

"No, who would ask for your private clothes. There is no temptation at all. I don't want to give it away for nothing!" Merlin murmured.

"Ah?! You guy who robbed women's stockings, saying this is not convincing at all!" Alice also replied with complaints.

Merlin couldn't help but shed a drop of cold sweat on his forehead, thinking that his black history is not so much, it is really uncomfortable to be grasped by Alice.

"Alice, don't get me wrong, you just happened to be hurt. I'm just afraid that you will have a problem, so it's better for you to pay more attention to rest."

"Of course I don't have any intentions against you, I'm just worried that your old injury will relapse and it will trouble me again, that's all~"

After listening to Alice, she felt relieved, but she was still a bit disappointed. She still expected Merlin to take the initiative to care about herself instead of having various purposes.

"Just... whatever you want, I won't appreciate you anyway, huh!"

"Ah..." Merlin sighed, and hung the clothes on the clothes rail one by one, "You stinky lady's mouth is really unforgiving."

Alice took a peek at Merlin, then blushed and lowered her head, thinking that Merlin had taken care of herself for so many days, should she treat him better?At least you have to thank you very much, right?

So Alice became entangled, and the two fingers went around like fighting a sword, and organized a set of more polite words in her heart, but her mouth suddenly became

"You worked so hard to take care of me before, and I thank you reluctantly. Just accept my gratitude and accept my gratitude, huh!"

"..." Merlin didn't speak, but the motion on his hand became stiff, and several black lines passed over his forehead, wondering if this guy could speak well?Why are thank you so proud?!Sure enough, you hate me from the bottom of your heart, right?

Alice lowered her head in embarrassment, her expression suddenly became pretentious, and she thought to herself, what am I doing!?Obviously it's not meant to talk like that, so how come you think it right in your heart, and you just change the taste when you say it out of your mouth!?It's good this time, Merlin would think I'm a grateful white-eyed wolf, right?

"Don't worry, I don't have anything else to do anyway. Take care of you as if I make myself fun." Merlin responded indifferently.

"Um...I...I guessed it a long time ago, huh!" Alice turned her head away angrily, and her heart became depressed. Look, she really hates me even more. How can I get close to this guy? Relationship?QAQ...

Both of them were trying to figure out each other's thoughts, and felt that the other party hated themselves for a while.

But at this moment, two scavengers suddenly appeared outside the door

One was an old man with a rickety tall figure and carrying a walking stick.

The other was a little boy, who looked at most five or six years old, with a delicate skin and a soft and doughy face.

Their clothes were a bit tattered, and their applications were haggard. They looked like they had experienced a disaster and looked very tired.

Although the old and the young beggars are very sloppy, they behave politely.

"You two, we are refugees from the imperial capital. We have been on the road for half a month. Can you give us some food?" The old man stood outside the door, begging frowningly.

The two looked out of the door, and they all showed doubts. Although they knew that a lot of migrants had recently arrived in the imperial capital, it was the first time they saw one who could not eat.

"Is the situation in the imperial capital bad again?" Mei Lin asked in a low voice.

"Maybe, not everyone left their homes smoothly, most ordinary people are embarrassed." Alice responded in a low voice.

Merlin looked at the beggars outside, recalling the imperial capital that was flooded, and couldn't help but understand a little bit. Many people are important to save their lives. They care about money, but they can only rely on relief on the road.

"We haven't eaten for two days. If possible, just give me some food to my grandson. Please help us for the sake of the Goddess of Light. I will remember the kindness of the two lords throughout my life."

The old man was angry with a cross on his chest, the little boy just hid behind his grandfather and did not speak.

"You wait here, I'll go back and find some food for you."

Alice saw that the grandson and grandson were very pitiful, and her heart softened, she couldn't bear to see them suffer.

If possible, Alice wants to help these people if she can.

Although she has no strength to quell the current rebellion, she can still do it by giving some food.

So Alice did not discuss with Merlin, and turned around and went upstairs to the house.

Merlin shifted his gaze to the scavengers, young and old outside, and looked a little unhappy at the miserable appearance of their ragged clothes.

Gee, are things getting worse?

Nowadays, the situation of constant disputes seems to be inseparable from me...

(??Ω????)

Chapter 10: Black Wolf

Merlin stared at the old and the young, feeling that it had something to do with him.

When the little boy saw Merlin, he seemed to feel a little scared and hid quietly behind his grandfather.

The old man smiled at Merlin, feeling that he didn't look like a suspicious person either. I wonder why the other person kept staring at him.

Merlin noticed that he was gaffe, and smiled a little, "How is the Imperial Capital recently? It seems that you have experienced a lot of trouble."

"Chaos, I heard that the queen has always been Queen Isabella. She pretends to be Elizabeth to rule the empire, but the real queen Elizabeth has been found and is dealing with the troubles in the north." The old man sighed helplessly and continued. "But Offrey's army is now invincible, and the Queen is 80% unable to resist it. Many people have to leave their homes to take refuge."

"That's it..." Merlin nodded, touching his chin and thinking, as expected, things became more and more chaotic. The water monster he defeated seemed to be the last trump card of the empire.

Alice came out of the house with a lot of things in her hand, bread, fruit, and a bag of goat's milk.

"Eat quickly."

Alice handed the bread and goat's milk to the elderly and let them distribute it by themselves. After all, the little boy looked young and needed some goat's milk to supplement it.

"Thank you, thank you for your kindness and charity, and may the goddess' light always envelop you and give you the best blessings." The old man expressed his gratitude with tears in his eyes and took the food with both hands.

"It's not a valuable thing, don't be so polite." Alice responded awkwardly.

"No, no, no, food is a gift from the goddess of light. You can share it with me, which proves that you are a kind person." The old man's mouth was full of praise, expressing emotional excitement.

Alice smiled politely, thinking that this old man should be a believer in the goddess of light, otherwise it would be impossible to always talk about the goddess.

She took out an apple, rubbed it on her clothes, and handed it to the little boy who was afraid of life.

"Eat, don't be polite with sister."

The little boy hesitated and looked at his grandfather, as if asking.
