Merlin glanced at Alice next to him, shaking his wine glass and teasing with his mouth crooked
"No one is fighting, why are you in a hurry for a drink? You don't have any ladylike demeanor, you won't find a boyfriend like this..."
Alice got angry when she heard this, and felt insulted, "Whether I can find a boyfriend or not has nothing to do with you, don't tell me what to do, and I have a boyfriend, you definitely won't know."
"Ha ha……"
Merlin smiled, thinking that you have a fart boyfriend, and if you have a boyfriend, you still need to stuff breast pads into your washboard?It's because I don't have a boyfriend that I try to increase my feminine charm, right?
"By the way, you don't know how to drink, but you still drink milk at such an age?"
"Tsk!" Alice gasped, blushing and said, "I can't do my personal hobbies?!"
A drop of cold sweat dripped down on Merlin's forehead, he took a sip of wine calmly and thought, why does this guy look like a powder keg?What kind of grudge against me?Could it be that stealing her equipment and looking at her body is going to kill me?The revenge of killing my father is nothing more than that...
Martha wiped her wine glass and looked at Alice and Merlin from time to time. After all, they both had a very intriguing relationship.
Although it looks like arguing on the surface, it feels like a flash bomb.
Martha was a little surprised that Merlin was able to find a golden adventurer. Although he usually wore a dagger on his waist and looked like a martial artist, he didn't feel very strong.
She didn't expect that Merlin's charm was so great that even a high-ranking powerhouse could create ambiguities.
Martha thought about Merlin's usual state, and she was relieved, after all, he was usually very attractive to girls.
"Merlin, I'll go upstairs to see Henry, clean up after you finish drinking."
Martha felt that Merlin and Alice hadn't seen each other for a long time and had a lot to say, so she deliberately made room.
"Oh, good Miss Martha." Merlin nodded with a smile.
The oil lamp on the counter flickered dimly, countless brown bottles of foreign wine were lined up neatly, and it seemed that there was a wind hanging outside, whining and blowing.
After Martha left, Alice finally couldn't sit still, and asked, "Give me back the things, and we will cancel all grievances."
"What?" Merlin raised his eyebrows, thinking that the things outside the armor would not be able to catch up to now.
"Mithril armor." Alice gritted her teeth angrily.
"Pfft!" Merlin spouted champagne, his heart skipped a beat, "I'm sorry, I can't pay it back, it's already sold, tens of millions of gold coins."
"Ah?" Alice's expression became astonished, and she slapped the table and said, "I want it back! Return the money, and I'll make up for it for you if the difference is not much. Anyway, the mithril armor must be returned to me. very important!"
"This...I'm afraid it won't work..." Merlin felt ashamed, thinking that it wasn't a matter of short money, but a matter of a lot of money!
"What do you mean? Speak straight, don't beat around the bush." Alice said angrily, her brows furrowed together.
"The money for selling the mithril armor..." Merlin hesitated to speak, the black line on his forehead couldn't stop, and continued awkwardly
"I threw it all at the Royal Casino and lost it all."
"In other words, if you want to redeem that mithril armor, you will need tens of millions of gold coins."
"If you can redeem you, I have no money anyway..."
(??ω???)
Chapter 56:
Alice's eyes widened, her expression became unbelievable, and she fell into a state of sluggishness for three seconds.
Originally, she still had some hope in her heart, as long as she could get back the mithril armor, her life would be much easier.
But I didn't expect Merlin to do everything right, not only bought the Mithril armor, but also used the money to gamble, and then lost everything! ?
It was all thrown at the Royal Racecourse, how can I get the money back?
There is no way to ask for it!The mithril armor was also ruined directly.
Tens of millions of gold coins, I can't make so much money in my life, should I pay it back with my life?
It's over, it's over, my whole life will be ruined by that bastard Merlin, and I will be carrying huge debts every day, and I will be forced to work hard to pay off the debts.
Alice's face was as pale as paper, and she had already begun to doubt her own life...
Merlin took a sip of champagne calmly, feeling that this guy Alice really made a fuss.
"A piece of armor, don't be so stingy~"
Merlin waved his hand pretending to be relaxed, thinking that the armor was very valuable, if not for his bad luck, tens of millions of gold coins would be enough for him to squander for decades.
"It's easy for you to say!" Alice was already confused by Merlin. She grabbed his collar and shook it violently. It was the first time in her life that she saw such a hateful person. "I don't care! Return the mithril armor to me!" Me! Otherwise, I will never end with you! Do you hear that!? Give it back to me!"
Merlin was swayed by Alice like a weed on the wall. Hearing her slightly crying excited tone, he couldn't help but feel emotional.
Are creatures like women really troublesome?Why do you want to pester me?
Sure enough, it's because of my noble temperament and pretty face, right?
Alas, I've always assumed handsomeness and beauty that belied my age.
Merlin directly misinterpreted Alice's meaning, she just came to ask for her own things.
In fact, Merlin also knew it, but he just didn't want to admit it, because he couldn't afford it, so he might as well choose to ignore it indirectly.
"I'm sorry Miss Alice, I can't afford it, so my current attitude is, if you want money, you will die, and you love whoever you want..."
Merlin said something very rascal, although he felt a little bit sorry, after all, it was embarrassing for an arrogant monarch to steal money from a little girl.
But the astronomical figure can not be paid by ordinary people, so it is better to be a rascal.
"You bastard! Return the armor to me quickly! Don't be a rascal! I don't care what you do, you must return it to me!" Alice's little nose was crooked by Merlin's anger, and the corners of her eyes glistened with tears. He stood up suddenly, drew out the rapier and placed it directly on Merlin's neck, "The armor you stole has already had a bad impact on my life, if you don't return it to me, I will do what you want now, I want your life..."
The flame of the oil lamp is ethereal, and the dim light appears hazy.
Alice's face was full of anger, and flames danced in her eyes. She held a thin sword and put it on Merlin's neck. The anger overcame the fear, and the shadows of the two intertwined.
Merlin's expression was very calm, and he didn't feel any threat at all, but he was in a bad mood.
Because he didn't like being threatened with a sword around his neck, it always reminded him that when he was a child, he and his sister were threatened by the demon nobles, and they lived a miserable life with their tails between their legs every day.
Merlin raised his eyelids and glanced at Alice. His eyes were extremely cold, and they were clearly ruthless eyes towards the enemy.
"It's okay to kill me."
"The premise is that you have the strength to take it."
"I used to be able to rub you against the ground, and I can still do it now."
"The ugliness comes first, if you dare to attack me, we will be enemies..."
Chapter 57: Monthly Ticket Addition
What Merlin said was serious and there was no element of joking.
After I was no longer the Demon King, I had no reason to fight with Alice, so I couldn't talk about being an enemy. Although there were some grievances in the past, it was not a big problem.
But now, if Alice dared to attack Merlin without a reason to fight, she would be considered an enemy by him.
Merlin's attitude towards the enemy has always been simple and rude, that is: kill!
No matter what the opponent's status is, whether the opponent is old, weak, women or children, or a beautiful woman who is overwhelmed by the country, as long as he attacks Merlin with murderous intentions, he will be regarded as an enemy, and after meeting, he will kill him with a knife, without mercy .
After coming to another world, Merlin received the education of the demon race, and he emphasized the principle of fairness in everything. The demon creed of an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth has long been deeply rooted in his bone marrow and implemented in himself.
People are going to kill him, and he still wants to use his mouth to influence the enemy like the Holy Mother?
If it doesn't exist, if you can kill the enemy with one blow, you definitely don't want to say more.
Maybe Merlin can't be called pure justice, but he can't be called pure evil either. It can only be said that he is self-centered and only does what he thinks is right.
Alice was shocked by Merlin's cold gaze, and felt a little uncomfortable all over. The ruby-like eyes seemed to pour cold water on her head, and her anger was instantly extinguished.
She recalled that Merlin's strength was not something she could compete with at her level, and her aggressive aura suddenly weakened, and she even felt a little scared.
Merlin smiled, defusing the tense atmosphere. It was rare to meet an acquaintance, and it would not be beautiful to fight.
"So you should calm down a bit, we are drinking, don't use a sharp sword to spoil the atmosphere, it is much smarter to resolve disputes through negotiations than to use force..."
Merlin slowly moved the rapier around his neck with his fingers, dissolving the tense situation.
Alice seemed to have lost her dreams, and sat on a chair in despair, feeling that her life must be like this, and she was breathless under the pressure of huge debts.
I thought seeing Merlin would solve my troubles, but in the end, I found nothing.
Alice has nothing to do with Merlin. If she asks for money, she can't get it back. What can she do?She is also very desperate...
Now Alice has a very uncomfortable feeling that she has been prostituted, but Merlin didn't pay her, which is very embarrassing.
"Aren't you very powerful? Why don't you go and grab the mithril armor back?"
Alice doesn't give up. Although she doesn't like to do bad things, Merlin is a bad guy, so it doesn't matter.
"Miss, we demons are a nation that values fairness and truth, not you human beings who advocate hypocrisy. Trading is a very sacred thing for us. If you like me, the transaction will be established." Merlin took a sip of wine, Said leisurely.
"Didn't you say that you are no longer the devil? Why are you so particular?" Alice frowned, feeling weird.
"Even if I'm not the devil king now, I can still be regarded as the former arrogant monarch. I can't afford to lose that person after selling something to someone else." Merlin showed a bit of displeasure, feeling that he was underestimated by Alice. Are you not a brave man? Is it really okay to encourage me to grab something?"
"It was you who robbed it, not me, you villain should do more bad things to be normal!" Alice gritted her teeth, and then her expression became depressed again, "Besides, I... I am no longer a brave man... ..."
"Eh!? No more?"
Merlin was surprised, thinking that Alice was still a brave man of the Holy See, so he quit.
Now that I think about it, I am not the devil, and Alice is not a hero, so it would be a bit inexplicable if they still fight.
Although there are still some historical issues, but the problem is not very big.
Merlin stretched out his hand with a playful smile, expressing his kindness.
"Since I'm not the devil king, and you're not a brave man, there's absolutely no need to be cold-faced with each other. Leaving aside the previous faction hostility, aren't we ordinary people now? So let's shake hands and make peace because we are not enemies."
"Do not touch me!"
Alice opened Merlin's hand angrily, and choked up directly on the wine table.
She felt that she was particularly wronged, and she was full of fear about her future life, afraid that she would become a slave to debt, but there was nothing she could do, who let her meet Merlin, the evil star in her life.
"You bastard, sooner or later I will kill you and go to the Holy See to receive a bounty, hey..."
