The Demon King Who Lost His Job

"Wow! How did you make it like this? Didn't you sleep last night?! What are you doing?" Alice was frightened by Merlin's decadent appearance.

"You're so noisy, Ellie... Merlin complained listlessly, "You can't let me rest?

"But we still have things to do today? I didn't stop you from sleeping, what were you doing last night? How did you get so tired?" Alice asked suspiciously.

"Do you really want to know? I don't think it's good for you to know this kind of thing..." Merlin hesitated, not willing to tell Alice the secret.

"What is it?" Alice frowned beautifully, feeling a bit bad.

"I was last night..."...

"Well, don't talk about it anymore, I already understand.'

Before Merlin finished speaking, he was interrupted by Alice, which made him a little puzzled.

"What do you unserstand?

"What can a man do in the middle of the night?" Alice flushed, she began to twist her face, and said embarrassingly, "You must have been suppressed for too long, so you secretly do something nasty by yourself, I still It’s understandable, but you have to have a degree of that kind of thing, it will hurt your body more often, so pay attention to yourself.'

"...Merlin sat up slowly, pointing to Alice, trembling with anger, and looking awkward as if he had eaten a fly. What is this stinky lady's nasty mind thinking?!

Why did I become Huang Meng

Chapter 4: Monthly ticket plus more (difficult to distinguish)

Although the two had an oolong when they got up early in the morning, it was still more serious.

So Merlin and Alice did not quarrel surprisingly, but got busy, ready to go to Leonardo to talk about the diary.

Merlin didn’t care much about his image in Alice’s eyes, anyway, he was too familiar with him and he had no image at all. It’s better to hear the door knocked suddenly when the two of them were busy taking care of their appearance. , Dong Dong Dong: "Huh?" Merlin frowned in the bathroom, wondering who came early in the morning?

"Merlin, open the door." Alice's voice came from the room.

"Tsk!" Merlin got upset and hated being called upon, "Can you go by yourself!? Why do you bother me every time this trivial matter!

"Aren't you close!? You won't die when you open the door!" Alice responded angrily.

"Who said I won't die? I can be exhausted! No! Go open the door yourself! Maybe it's here to find you!" Merlin continued to brush her teeth in the mirror, not wanting to bother Alice.

"I...I'm changing my clothes! I haven't finished it yet, how can I get out!?" Alice's voice softened slightly.

call!"Merlin threw the toothbrush into the quilt, gargle and spit out, "The troublesome woman, sooner or later she will be alive and angry. Merlin walked over and opened the door with a face full of anger. When she saw the person coming, she changed into a gentle pair at the speed of light. Smiley face.

Apart from the word professional, there is no other word to describe the speed of this face change.

"One... Isn't this the landlord's wife? Is there anything going on this early morning?" It turned out to be Mr. Merlin. I heard that you came back last night, so I hurried over to talk about this month's rent.The landlady’s old face is amiable and very polite in her words.

"Uh, one room rent!?"

Merlin's breathing was stagnant, and he had seen all kinds of winds and waves calm and calm, and he actually took a step back on the issue of renting.

Ma, urge rent!So the rent has already reached the month?

It used to be that Alice gave it to the landlord’s wife early, so why would someone come here today?!

Merlin was very resistant to being urged, and when he was urged, he felt a myocardial infarction.

"Yes, Mr. Merlin, the rent has expired, and it has been a week, I think no matter how sweet the two are, it is impossible to forget my old lady's rent?" The landlord said with a smile.

"I haven't forgotten." As the family's money is managed by Alice, Merlin had to call Alice out loudly, "Alice! Come out! Don't pretend to be dead."

"You're going to die! What do you shout? What attitude! I said I was changing clothes. Alice came out of the room angrily. The clothes on her body were not very neat. She was obviously annoyed by Merlin and rushed out. The theory was originally Alice At first, she was aggressive, her face looked like Merlin's life and death, but when she saw the landlord's wife standing outside the door, her voice suddenly stopped, and her face was full of consternation.

Alice was absent for a short time for 3 seconds, immediately put on a smile, and quickly greeted her.

"Yo~, the landlord's wife? What brought you here, come and come, sit in the house." "No need, Miss Alice, I came to collect the rent today. You have been overdue for a week and will not pay the rent." It will give me a headache." The landlady looked embarrassed.

"Huh!?" Alice suddenly seemed to be petrified, and froze on the spot, apparently catching her by renting her off guard.

In fact, as the manager of the family's economy, Alice already understands the current situation very well. The funds are almost unable to be turned around. Excluding the daily expenses and the expenses of going out to perform tasks, there is not much left.

Now if the rent is paid, Merlin and Alice are likely to face the dilemma of frugality, so it doesn't seem strange that Alice will show this look when facing rent urges.

"Eh what? Give the money quickly... Merlin doesn't understand the situation at home, but feels that Alice's reaction is weird.

"Go, go aside! It's nothing to do with you!" Alice pulled Merlin aside, but in fact asked him to say a few words, "Landlord, I'm really sorry, our economy is in a little situation now, this rent... we temporarily It's difficult to get it out. Can you give us a period of grace? After that, we will definitely make up all the rent owed!

"Huh!?" Merlin widened her eyes next to him, looking at Alice looking very serious and thinking, damn it!The family is already poor and can't open the pot!?Do you want to be so severe!?It has reached the point where even the rent is required on credit!By the way, didn’t I get 1000 gold coins from the Dark Guild duo in Ireland before?It's okay to take it out now!

"This... the landlady obviously hesitated, but after looking at Alice's serious eyes, she felt that this young man would not cheat casually, so she nodded, "Well, Miss Alice, I trust you very much. Normally I will never allow rent in arrears, but you are an exception. I can stay in arrears for two months at most. If you still cannot make up the rent after two months, it is a pity that you must leave Here."I see, don't worry, I will pay it back.""Alice responded very seriously.

"Don't worry too much, Miss Alice, relax, I will allow you to owe rent, it is all because of your good character. I have heard many people praise you, and you will probably be like Mr. Carl in the future. , Loved by many people.” The landlord’s wife said with a smile, seeming to have heard a lot of Alice’s rumors.

"Hey, where is 5MV" i Alice unconsciously gave a smirk, wondering if her reputation is getting bigger and bigger?I think it’s not far from reaching the pinnacle of life, I’m still a little excited when I think about it~

"Mr. Merlin, you are Miss Alice's husband, and even the backbone of the family. It is too unreasonable to entrust this kind of burden to Miss Alice. You have to work harder." The landlord's wife told Merlin. One sentence.

"Ah...oh

Merlin responded blankly, thinking to wait!Something is wrong!Alice is the kind of speculator who reaps the profit of the fisherman!I promised it accidentally!

After the landlord's wife left, Merlin finally couldn't help but looked at Alice, then asked.

"Miss, how do you manage the money? If it doesn't work, just change me. I seriously suspect that you, a bitch, took advantage of my carelessness and secretly embezzled the common property to fill his own pockets and seek benefits for himself!

"What nonsense are you talking about!? I would do that kind of despicable thing!?" Alice stared angrily.

"Then why do I even owe the rent now? Isn't it your responsibility?" Merlin put a pot of dirty water on Alice's head o) CEz Xiaohui f

"My small vault was originally used for paying rent, but a prodigal bastard squandered the money to the gambling ground. Who is to blame? Who is to blame!?" Alice said frankly, her hands on hips being domineering.

"Which...who is it to blame?" Merlin suddenly wilted. Alice's body was so complete that he couldn't refute it, so he had to change the subject, "Alice, there will be bread and milk, so we don't just stare narrowly. Looking at the small vault, I want to look to the future. Didn’t I get 1000 gold coins in Ireland? Although it is not enough, it can also solve the urgent need. Why not give the landlord’s wife "... Alice's tough momentum is sluggish, and she muttered , "I paid John and his family for repairing the house. Didn't the house break down because of my relationship?"

"Doesn't people need you to pay for it?" Merlin looked surprised, thinking that Alice's brain is not a problem~

"I feel I have my own responsibilities, and I need to take it on." Alice pouted in response, as if she didn't want to admit her mistake.

"Hiss~" Merlin took a breath, and his face turned black after brushing. He patted Alice's scented shoulder, and said solemnly: "Alice, I won't refute others who say I am a prodigal.

"But you say I'm a prodigal, I will definitely not accept it.'

"Because in the realm of prodigal, both of us are authorities, it's hard to tell the difference..."

(o _)”_<)

Chapter 5: Parsing the Diary

Alice didn't quite agree with Merlin's "difficulties", and she was different from this bastard.

Forcibly, it's hard to distinguish, and it simply lowered Alice's level.

In fact, Merlin is a self-interested prodigal, Alice is a mentally retarded prodigal, there are indeed some differences.

Alice didn't want to have the same knowledge as Merlin, so she didn't bother to mention his "honorable" history of scoring millions of dollars.

So Alice snorted and went back to the room to start changing clothes. It was more important to be serious.

After busying for a while, both of them were ready, and went straight out to find Leonardo, hoping she could help translate this ancient diary.

Merlin and Alice first went to the guild to find them, but they did not see Da Vinci.

By asking Rukia, I learned that Da Vinci had returned a few days ago. According to her habit, they must have not stayed too much in the laboratory of the library, but immediately went to Wrexham. library.

This made Hobbs, who was full of precautions against Merlin's coming over, wondered in his heart. Why is Merlin so serious?Furious...

On the way to the library, Merlin asked Alice curiously

"Alice, did Miss Da Vinci never go home? Why do you always go to the library?'

"The library is her home. It is sponsored by the Earl of Austin. On the surface, it is a library, but it is actually a laboratory. Da Vinci has food and accommodation in it." Alice responded in an angry manner, wondering how long Merlin had been here. I don't even know this kind of thing.

In fact, Merlin and Da Vinci spoke very few times, and he was more familiar with Hobbes than Da Vinci.

"Spell like that? What is she researching?"

"Of course it's alchemy. Da Vinci was obsessed with this. Almost all his energy was devoted to this...

The library, Leonardo’s laboratory.

The tabletop is almost full of bottles and cans, and the colorful liquids make people dazzling.

Da Vinci's daily routine is to experiment every day, constantly eliminating some mistakes, and making his skills more refined.

She has a dream, that is to create a sage stone of alchemy.

The Sage’s Stone is a treasure that countless alchemists have been pursuing throughout their lives. I heard that it has the power to transform decay into magic, create something out of thin air, and so on. The reason why many wealthy royal merchants are willing to sponsor alchemists.

Hope to get the sage's stone, satisfy one's own desires, etc. Although they know that the chance of getting the sage's stone is small and pitiful, many people still flock to it.

Creating the Sage's Stone is Leonardo's long-term pursuit, and it is also something that can prove her strength.

Da Vinci started to learn alchemy at the age of 7, and it has been + years, but he has never seen the dregs of the Sage's Stone.

This also made Da Vinci very confused, suspecting that the sage's stone was an imaginary thing and completely non-existent.

But Da Vinci didn't want to give up. After all, he put in so much energy, it would be too bad to give up.

At this time Leonardo was at the experiment table, busy doing the experiment, Rossetti sat on the sofa, looking bored and doing nothing to do: "Da Vinci, isn't it okay? Let's end it today?"
