301. Friends

Merlin sat in the living room of the treehouse in a daze, a little at a loss.

It can be seen that the owner of this tree house is a person who enjoys life very much, and the layout of the house is very exquisite, not to say how gorgeous, but at a glance all the furnishings are very neat, with a faint style, but there is no lack of warmth at home.

Merlin originally thought that the succubus girl said that she would go to a random restaurant or something to deal with it, but what he never expected was that the girl took him home directly.

The two have only known each other for a few minutes, so they took it home, is this progress a little too fast, Merlin He felt that he was not mentally prepared.

Speaking of which, it seems that this is the second time he has visited a young girl's home, but the teacher's dormitory provided by Aldrich College was the foodie Sister Lin before, and Miss Sister had just moved there when the school started, so there was not much life in that villa.

So, last time Merlin felt quite natural, there was no nervous expectation or curiosity about going to a girl's house for the first time, and it felt like that time was just a very simple dinner.

But this time it's different.....

It can be seen that this tree house is the usual residence of the succubus girl, especially some of the small ornaments in the house, small objects or something, with a strong personal style, full of the breath of daily life, and even the air in the house takes a deep breath, as if you can smell the faint fragrance that is absent.

Everything in the room seemed to remind Merlin of the fact that he had now intruded into a young girl's private space.

This makes Merlin, an innocent little otaku, a little unnatural, he sits on the soft sofa, his sitting posture is extraordinarily upright, and he is embarrassed to touch anything around him, for fear that he will accidentally offend the privacy of the owner of the house.

Even the thought that the couch under his ass might normally be where the beautiful succubus lady sat or lay down, Merlin felt the urge to stand up directly.

Hawkers, in short, he is not very comfortable, if he can, he is now eager to leave immediately.

In fact, he was ready to slip away before he entered the door, but was forced in by the succubus girl, and the reason Lilith gave at that time made him unable to refute.

"This is not my home, but Young Master Merlin's home, Young Master Merlin, you have the habit of going home on time to eat, if it is not for work, you generally will not go out to eat, please cooperate with the young master, don't show the stuffing."

Well, this treehouse is indeed Lilith's home, but it is more accurate to say that Lilith plays the home of "Merlin", and to outsiders, the owner of this treehouse is Merlin, not Lilith.

And the living habits that the succubus girl said are naturally the living habits when she played "Merlin", since Merlin has officially taken over this vest identity, then some obvious living habits should not change much for the time being, so as not to be seen by others as flaws.

Lilith's reasons were reasonable, and Merlin couldn't find anything to refute, so he had to follow him into the house.

I won't tell the truth, if I ignore the fact that this house was originally inhabited by a beautiful girl, after overcoming some embarrassment of intruding into other people's private space, Merlin looked at the layout of this not very big tree house, and found that these arrangements seemed to be quite in line with his aesthetics and even living habits.

He sat on the sofa and casually stretched out his hand to the side, just enough to reach the row of small bookcases next to him, and the books on this small bookcase even happened to be the ones he had been reading recently.

And these details seemed to be reflected throughout the room, as if the room had been specially built for him, which made him feel more comfortable living here than he did in a castle.

Well, in fact, Merlin in the castle has not fully lived in it to this day, after all, a month ago he was just an ordinary otaku, and suddenly changed from the original small house of eighty square meters to the luxurious castle, this kind of gap is too big, not so easy to adapt.

Every day he gets up and looks at the old castle, he has the illusion that he is not living at home, but in a historical museum.

Sure enough, Merlin actually prefers a small house like the current treehouse to the gorgeous and solemn castle, which is comfortable and warm, and feels more like home.

However, this treehouse is so in line with his living habits, this is obviously not a coincidence, probably this is really tailored for him, and who customizes it, this answer is self-evident.

Merlin looked in the direction of the kitchen in the house, at this time the succubus girl had changed into a casual dress at home, and was wearing an apron, busy in the kitchen, the rich aroma wafted from the kitchen, so that Merlin's already hungry stomach began to protest constantly, and his mouth was constantly secreting saliva under the temptation of this delicacy.

That's Merlin's favorite grilled lamb chops.

"Tsk, do you know all about my favorite food?"

Merlin admires the professionalism of his stand-in girl, which he really understands thoroughly enough, this stand-in is simply a complete imitation of food, clothing, housing and transportation, but this approach does make it easier for him to take over this identity now, and it is not so easy to show flaws.

Of course, this so-called favorite food is actually for the previous Merlin, that is, the original owner, and now Merlin, the delicious food he likes is undoubtedly the food of his hometown, but unfortunately those dishes that do not belong to this world are probably only made by himself.

However, Merlin, who has fused the memories of the original owner, has indeed inherited some of the original owner's preferences to a certain extent, which is why he also feels very comfortable in this treehouse designed specifically for the original owner's preferences.

"Just wait, Master Merlin, lunch is ready."

In the kitchen, Lilith brought the prepared meal to the table, and then greeted Merlin.

At this time, there were some beads of sweat on the white skin of the succubus girl, which seemed to be heated by the temperature of the kitchen, which made the strands of hair scattered on the girl's forehead also become a little wet, and Lilith, who was wearing a crisp ponytail, reached out to pick up the strands of hair, and then wiped the sweat on her forehead, with a confident smile on her face.

She has already taken out her best cooking skills for this meal, she feels that she is in a great state today, and she has played a little beyond her level, so it is not a problem to win the young master's stomach in one fell swoop with this skill.

Merlin also sat down at the table with some expectation, although he still couldn't completely relax now, and there were still some guests who were restrained, but the food in front of him undoubtedly made him a little more relaxed, and he was also a food lover.

Just like what he had smelled before, the dish on the table was indeed the original owner's favorite grilled lamb chops, along with a vegetable soup and a healthy vegetable salad.

From the outside, Lilith's craftsmanship seems to be very good, especially the fast lamb chops are golden in color, the heat is just right, the surface is shiny, and the oil flowers that have not yet completely cooled are still bubbling, making a sizzling sound, accompanied by steaming heat, the rich aroma of meat comes to the nose.

"Time is a little tight, the dishes are a little simple, please don't be simple, I'll make up for it later."

The succubus girl set the dishes, and then said apologetically to Merlin.

She knows the identity of her new master, Her Royal Highness the Prince of the Empire, although the girl is still a little confident in her cooking skills, but she is not a palace chef after all, she can't make so many tricks as a palace chef, her cooking skills are all figured out by herself in her usual spare time, and it is more of some home-cooked food.

But Merlin didn't care too much, after all, it was just a light meal, and naturally it wouldn't be like he usually did in the castle, with a whole kitchen serving him, and every meal was a big meal with one table.

And to be honest, although the food culture of this world is not as dark as a certain country in his previous life, but it is not much better, just a few tricks, when I first ate it, it was delicious, but I was a little tired of eating too much, and it was only a month later, Merlin felt a little tired of eating, and he slipped into the kitchen in the middle of the night every day to open a small stove.

The only trouble is that the kitchen in the castle is actually a kitchen demon turned into by the cook lady after Cynthia's curse and Merlin's demonization, in order not to hurt the poor cook's self-esteem by secretly opening a small stove, Merlin has to have a collective sleep spell every time he enters the kitchen to make the whole kitchen fall into a coma, so that he can do it himself with peace of mind, which is a bit strange and troublesome.

And Lilith's cooking skills are somewhat beyond Merlin's expectations, this roasted lamb chop seems to be better than the chef of the castle, you must know that those who can be royal chefs are already well-known chefs, so this succubus girl's skills are already excellent among chefs.

It's no wonder that the succubus girl looks very confident at this time.

"It's a delicious food, and I'm looking forward to it."

He smiled and complimented the succubus girl.

"Lilith, sit down and eat together."

Seeing the girl standing aside, serving him as if she were a servant, Merlin was a little unnatural, he waved his hand and pulled away the chair opposite with his magic power, and said.

"I don't really like to be served, I prefer to be more equal."

When Lilith heard this, she looked at Merlin with some surprise.

She suddenly felt that she might not know her new master as well as she imagined, and the reason why she chose to stand aside and serve Merlin like a servant was because she knew that Merlin was a prince, and nobles generally paid attention to dignity and orderliness, so she positioned herself as a servant from the beginning, thinking not to offend this new master.

But now Merlin's approach was somewhat unexpected, and it touched her knowledge blind spot.

A prince prefers to be with people as equals? This is too strange, isn't it, and the materials sent by the teacher don't write this? Obviously, Young Master Merlin didn't seem to have expressed this idea before?

Fortunately, this is not a big problem, Lilith quickly adjusted her mentality, she obediently sat down opposite Merlin, and also brought herself the same lunch, but the girl faintly felt that something was not good, this real Master Merlin seemed to be different from the young Master Merlin she had written from the teacher's letter in the past.

Merlin was relieved to see Lilith also seated.

Although the succubus girl said that this treehouse belonged to him, in Merlin's opinion, he was still a guest, and Lilith was the owner of this place.

Merlin picked up the knife and fork on the table, ready to enjoy Lilith's elaborate meal.

He had noticed before that Lilith didn't actually cook in the traditional way of ordinary people, but used the power of witchcraft, but it was not a process that was omitted like a gourmet tablecloth, and a direct alchemy method of turning ingredients into dishes in seconds, but simply using witchcraft to assist in cooking, such as using fire control to master the heat or something.

This is the first wizard Merlin has seen besides himself who uses witchcraft in his life, which makes him feel a little more fond of Lilith and has a feeling of meeting a confidant. After all, in this era when the vast majority of wizards are pursuing the ultimate destructive power of witchcraft, there are really not many wizards who can stop and use the power of witchcraft in the field of convenient life.

The lamb chops grilled by fire control are naturally superb, the soft mutton has been rotten to the point of detachment of flesh and bones, Merlin can easily pull the bones of the lamb chops out of the meat, and cut off a piece of mutton and send it to the mouth, chew it gently, the full of meat juice bursts in the mouth, and the rich aroma of meat continues to impact the taste buds, making Merlin squint his eyes comfortably.

Well, if Merlin's own cooking skills are full marks, then he can give Lilith an eighty points, which can already kill many so-called chefs in seconds.

And just like scratching his own itch, Merlin always feels almost funny when he eats his own dishes, he prefers to eat other people's dishes, so even if Lilith's cooking skills seem to him to be almost meaningful, it doesn't stop him from eating happily.

Lilith on the other side was also relieved to see Merlin eating happily, she just watched her new master eat, and she was inexplicably a little happy in her heart.

In the past, she enjoyed the delicious food by herself, but now she has an extra person to share, which is unexpectedly good.

"Great cooking, Lilith, but even better if you put a little more effort into the seasoning, did you know that there is a spice called ...... That barbecue is more suitable. “

Merlin was a little overjoyed to see the hunt, and he opened his mouth as he nibbled on the lamb chops.

Lilith was stunned for a moment when she heard his words, and then her eyes lit up.

"Uh-huh, I know, it wasn't like this yet, thank you, young master, I'll try it when I go back, it turns out that young master, do you also know how to cook?"

"Of course, I'll ask you to try my craft when I have time, and I'll tell you, the trick of this barbecue ......."

"Wow, young master, wait, I'll go find a note and write it down."

........

It seems that they have a common hobby, and the relationship between the two at the table began to get close quickly, and while the two were eating, I was talking word by word.....

It took a long time for Lilith to come back to her senses.

Oops, she seems to have forgotten her identity after chatting, it's over, she just seemed to keep pestering the young master to ask questions, will the young master think she is very annoying......

The succubus girl who calmed down was a little afraid, she patted her face that was a little excited and reddened, and peeked at the young master opposite, but saw that the young master waved his hand, and the dinner plate in front of the two automatically flew to the side of the pool, and a ball of water wrapped these dinner plates and cleaned them automatically.

"Ah, young master, just leave this to me."

How dare Lilith let her new master do these groceries, she quickly got up and wanted to step forward.

But Merlin shook his head.

"I said that you don't have to care about this, we just get along as friends, you invite me to dinner, and it's normal for me to wash the dishes, and what do you think of my running water cleaning technique? It's not worse than your fire control skills, is it? ”

Merlin proudly showed off his little witchcraft of life.

Seeing Merlin's face and wanting to ask for praise, Lilith was stunned.

The succubus girl is now confirmed, but the real Young Master Merlin seems to be different from the one she imagined in the past, but it doesn't seem to be bad, or it should be said that such a young master seems to be a little better than she imagined.

Perhaps, it's time for her to get along with the young master in a different way, or is it really like what the young master said, to be more equal?

Lilith struggled slightly, then plucked up her courage and said.

"I think there are still some problems with your witchcraft, young master, maybe you can ..... like this, young master."

She waved her hand as well, and a larger ball of water swallowed the small ball of water summoned by Merlin, and then the balloon automatically generated some decontamination foam, making the cleaning effect a little stronger.

"It's better to mix in some soap soap juice like this, it's a cleansing witchcraft I've figured out myself."

Lilith said with some trepidation.

The succubus girl was a little worried about whether she had broken the young master's face like this, and whether she would be punished.

But then she heard a voice that was a little excited.

"How's that, teach me, Lilith."
