She Chooses To Destroy the World

Chapter 12: Displaced.

This startling expansion made everyone stunned, even Hewlett, who had never known what he was thinking, raised his head and looked at them at this time.

Everyone in the tavern had long known that Alice had no father. At this time, they all focused on Alice and Roma, as if they wanted to find the similarities between the two eyebrows.

Rom was very calm, but couldn’t conceal his anxiety and couldn’t help muttering to himself:

“This is really bad. Have I ever slept with a red-haired woman in this area? Damn it, I can’t remember it at all.”

He completely ignored everyone’s reactions, but moved his lips to himself, as if counting the names of women who had slept with him.

These actions were really inconsistent with his status as a legendary mercenary. If he was seen by his admirers, he would be disappointed. Lena and the other waitress both showed quite subtle expressions, somewhat embarrassed.

Seeing this mercenary panic at this moment without authorization, Alice was so embarrassed that she wanted to get into the crack in the floor, desperately trying to say:

“I think you are not my father.”

Rom has fallen into his own world, turning a deaf ear to Alice’s words:

“…If you do, you should take responsibility. Don’t look at me like this, I’m also a very responsible man. It’s okay, don’t be afraid. Tell me, who is your mother. As long as you are really my daughter, I am absolutely I will be responsible.”

Alice was embarrassed, but she had to explain the matter clearly:

“My father believes in Ludenier, so he should be a magician. And my mother has brown hair, so…”

“I don’t believe in gods, nor red hair, so you are not my daughter.” Rom finished speaking for her, and finally heaved a sigh of relief. “If I really have such a big daughter, I really don’t know what to do. . But after all… what are you looking for me?”

Roma’s words are here. If Alice doesn’t make up a suitable reason, the matter seems to be difficult to end. Alice’s brain is running fast, trying to find a reason that has nothing to do with the gods. Perhaps the sword that Roma was carrying inspired her, she blurted out:

“I have heard of your name a long time ago, and I admire you very much. I was thinking, maybe you can teach me how to use a sword.”

Alice’s words were just to confuse the matter. As expected, Roma was dumbfounded and laughed out:

“My swordsmanship is to save my life on the battlefield, not to teach women to show off. Besides, I have no fixed place, even if I am willing to teach you, there is not so much idle time.”

Alice had long known that he would refuse, but she still made a regretful look, bowed her head and said nothing. Roma seemed a little guilty about it, and before leaving, he gave her twice the tip.

The tavern was closed. Alice took the tip she received today and went home. She saw Grizzly, the maid of the landlord’s wife, standing at the door of her house waiting for her:

“You finally came back,” Grizzy yawned, showing a look of weary and exhaustion, “Madam asked me to wait for you here and tell you to come by tomorrow morning.”

Grizzly left after passing the message, without even allowing Alice to ask her what was the matter, leaving Alice alone in a daze.

This was really unexpected. Alice had already paid the rent on time before, and it was said that the landlord’s wife shouldn’t have looked for her. Suddenly wanting to meet her, it always makes people feel that it is probably not a good thing.

Alice was a little nervous, but the child’s sleep would not be affected by anything. She lay on the bed and fell asleep quickly. By the next day, she finished her clothes and prepared to see the landlord’s wife. Before leaving, she thought and thought, and still took a gold coin that Etienne gave her.

If she really has any trouble, then use this gold coin to solve it.

She came to the house where the landlord’s wife was staying. Grizzie opened the door for her and asked her to sit in the landlord’s wife’s reception room. The attitude of the landlord’s wife is particularly cold, which is completely different from the impression Alice left when she was an alternate maid here:

“I’ve heard about your work in a tavern. Although it’s not a serious job, considering your hard work, I didn’t say anything. But recently I heard some rumors saying that you are a little My age is very irregular. I have told you a long time ago that my house is not rented to prostitutes, you can move out.”

Alice didn’t know where the words came from, her eyes widened in shock. Then she realized that it was probably because of her meeting with Etienne that night that she had been shaken out.

Of course she didn’t do anything bad and wanted to argue, but she thought that if she told her Master Etienne went to her, Alice would not be able to hide what happened in the temple to the landlady. From the attitude of Lord Etienne, Alice knew vaguely that if the world knew that she had talked with the **** of doomsday, it was feared that she would suffer bad luck worse than displacement, so she had to look at the landlord’s wife and say a word. can not say.

Seeing that she was silent, the landlord’s conjecture became more certain. She pushed the money she had prepared to Alice:

“Here is the rent for the remaining half a month. Take it back. I limit you to move out from here within a week.”

Alice panicked, she pushed the money back, took out the gold coins from her pocket, and put them in front of the landlord’s wife:

“The landlady, this is always my home, please don’t drive me away. I have money and can afford the rent.”

The landlord’s wife raised her eyebrows and looked at her. The gold coin Alice took out further confirmed her thoughts. Her voice was cold and stern:

“It’s not about money, you have to go.”

The landlord’s wife said categorically, and Alice looked confused:

“But…where can I go?”

“Where you live.” The landlord’s wife showed a business face, “Even though Anhe Street is poor, the women here are innocent. Since you have money, you can rent a higher-priced house. , Or simply live to Fireworks Street, where people will not look down on you.”

She didn’t say anything more, stood up and walked away, with her head raised high, as if saying a word to Alice was an insult to herself. Alice stood there for a while, only to see Grizzly come in and asked her unceremoniously:

“Why are you still not leaving?”

Alice had to leave the landlady’s house and returned slowly. Before she had walked a few steps, she ran into Burke head-on.

This is not the place where Burke went to the union. Obviously, he came to her specially. When he saw her coming, he whispered to her:

“Alice, you…”

Seeing Burke’s expression, Alice understood everything at once.

Only Burke knew about her meeting with Etienne, and only Burke saw them pushing the two gold coins. Obviously Burke did not keep his promise and told others about it.

An anger of betrayal surged in her heart, and the blood rushed into her mind. She wanted to say something very rude, but couldn’t think of anything for a while, so she just said coldly:

“The landlady asked me to move.”

This short sentence was more uncomfortable than any insult and curse. Burke’s face was pale and he was almost crying:

“Sorry, I didn’t mean it. I was stunned that day, and they saw that something was wrong with me… I didn’t want to say… but the master forced me…”

Needless to say, Burke, Alice can imagine the scene herself. After all, he still didn’t believe her. Burke is not a man who is good at disguising himself, she has known it a long time ago. The matter is now, there is no point in blaming him, she just finds it funny.

It’s hard to say what kind of expression Alice had on her face at this time. Anger, disappointment, and sadness were mixed, showing a powerful aura. Burke looked at her without daring to say anything, even some daring not to look into her eyes.

Alice had never seen Burke like this. He was so tall, but now he looked smaller than Alice. Seeing him like this, Alice faintly felt a sense of disgust in her heart, and her previous goodwill for him seemed to have disappeared.

She ignored him, walked around him, and walked away without looking back.

Burke didn’t catch up, she thought, he probably didn’t have the courage. In any case, she has to move now, and probably will never see him again. Alice went back to the house, looked at her few pieces of luggage, thinking that she probably didn’t have to pack it in a hurry now.

How to find a house on earth? Alice didn’t understand at all. She has been living here with her mother since she has the memory. But she knew that the reason why her mother chose to settle down in Dark River Street was because the rent here was the cheapest in the city. After leaving this street, it was difficult for her to find an affordable place to live.

What if you go to find someone to help first?

Master Etienne once said that if she encounters any difficulties, she can go to the temple to find him. Lovely Lisi refused to trouble him easily. He has helped her too much. He helped her conceal things about the future god, gave her cakes, visited her in the tavern, and gave her gold coins. In Alice’s world, Master Etienne himself is like a god. He gave her sunshine, rain and dew, and gave her a concern that she had never felt before. And how can she take this kindness for granted, and then ask him for more things?

Alice directly rejected the idea of asking Etienne-sama for help, and decided to ask her friends in the tavern first to find a way.

The waitresses, cooks, and Mr. Hewlett in the pub are all older than her, and they always have more experience in this area. Besides, after working in the tavern for so long, she has long regarded this place as her other home. If she can’t find a suitable place to live within a week, maybe she can live in the kitchen of the tavern temporarily. Hewlett doesn’t usually talk much, but he is a good boss and would not disagree.

She made up her mind and packed up to go to the tavern. Because of the delay in the landlord’s house during the day, she arrived a little later than usual. As soon as she walked in, she felt that the air in the tavern seemed a bit wrong.

The expressions of everyone seemed unhappy.

This atmosphere made her nervous, she vaguely sensed that bad luck might not let her go easily, but she didn’t know where its fingers would stick out, or whether it would give her a fatal blow. She looked around at a loss, not knowing who to ask. At this time Lena walked over to her and told her that Hewlett wanted to talk to her.
