31. The day of the end of the salted fish
In the study of the castle
Alice looked at Merlin who was sitting on the sofa without saying a word, although the little girl couldn't understand the conversation between Merlin and Cynthia just now, and she didn't understand what the gods meant, she just used her ability to sense the good and evil of others and felt that she seemed to have become a big trouble for Mr. Merlin all of a sudden.
The little girl was a little uneasy about this.
Why? Why is this happening? It should have been such a happy thing to meet a good person like Mr. Merlin for the first time, and to have a future to look forward to for the first time, but why did it suddenly become like this?
Alice's mood was very low.
But after all, she had suffered a lot before, and the little girl's ability to regulate her mood was very strong, and she quickly cheered up again.
"Mr. Merlin, am I causing you trouble, and if so, then please allow me to break the contract."
Alice took a few deep breaths, and then finally made up her mind and said seriously.
What she thought in her heart was that she couldn't cause trouble for Mr. Merlin, who was so kind to take care of her.
...........
On the couch in the study, Merlin sat as if he had lost his soul, his eyes like a dead fish, and his mouth kept muttering something like "I'm so stupid, really" and other incomprehensible words.
"Tut-tut, who would have thought of this, the great Lord of the Torch, the supreme human Lord God, one person singled out the peerless brave man of the entire dark world, selflessly incarnated as the supreme savior of the sun to bring light to the world, the god of such a big man would be a little match girl who almost froze to death on the side of the road, what kind of international joke is this."
"But ah, the Lord of the Flame and the match, isn't this Nima the difference between a big torch and a small torch? Alas, I should have thought of it a long time ago. ”
Merlin sighed inwardly.
He really should have realized how extraordinary Alice was earlier.
Obviously, it is said that the demon king's personality in the abyss is extremely high, and he is second only to the demon god in the abyss, as long as the demon kings of the past generations are not unlucky enough to be stabbed to death by the brave, then after the term of office is up, he can properly rank among the dark ministers and become the demon god.
So, apart from the involvement of the power of the gods, Merlin's shadow body should be invulnerable.
He had said it himself before, and it was only the Holy Fire lit by the Pope of the Templar Headquarters or the Holy Maiden that could break through his shadow body.
But why, why did he know this, but he still ignored the fact that Alice just lit an ordinary match, and with the help of that small and faint fire, he saw the fact that he was the sneaking demon king?
Alas, it was Alice's appearance as a little girl, and the pitiful situation at that time, that it was so deceptive that he didn't think about it at all.
In the end, it's still unfortunate.,This unlucky urging.,Crow's mouth.,It's not good to say anything when you're sneaking.,I have to say that the holy flame of the saint can force him to do something.,It's okay.,I really met the holy flame lit by the future saint herself.。
Thanks to the fact that he didn't swear anything before, "You can still kill me with a match, and if you can beat me, I, Merlin, will eat this holy fire on the spot." ”
Otherwise, such a big flag would have been erected there, and the grass on his grave would have begun to sprout by now.
Alas, the Lord of the Torch, you are a big pit, you are such a great god, why are your own daughters and gods so miserable, are you such a father?
Merlin, who was miserable and pitted, complained in his heart.
However, he only complained twice, after all, he knew very well that ordinariness was the best protection that the Lord of the Torch gave Alice.
Shoot the first bird, if this is high-profile to the whole world before it grows up, then you really think that the abyss demons eat white rice.
Or do you think that the Demon King is really the kind of fool in the game who will only watch the growth of the brave, that is, if he doesn't shoot in person and shoot to death early, he will only make his subordinates keep queuing up to send it.
Don't be stupid, it's just a game plot that needs to be good.
In reality, as soon as the news of the birth of a new god of the Lord of the Flame comes out, believe it or not, the dark ministers of the abyss will take their little brothers and kill directly to the Sanctuary, ready to directly strangle the threat in the cradle.
There is no doubt about this, the reaction of the abyss will definitely only be more intense than the whole.
After all, over the years, the Lord of the Flame had cultivated only one deity, and the statue of Alice's predecessor was now in the second seat of the Pantheon, the headquarters of the Templar Church.
The sworn enemy of the abyss, the nightmare of the demons, and the inheritor of the will of fire, he is the forger of steel and iron, the god of forging, and the creator of the art of battle and war, the god of war.
If it is the great pioneer of the Lord of the Flame who dispelled the darkness of the world, so that the originally lowly and weak races could only prostrate at the feet of other races, and the human beings who survived by luck had the courage and capital to stand up, then this god of iron and war is the pioneer who led mankind to stand up in the true sense of the word, knocking down all those who are not convinced, and is the pioneer of human domination of the continent.
The fierce man who held a flaming sledgehammer in one hand and a giant axe that was also flaming in the other was a fierce man who slashed from one end of the abyss to the other without blinking his eyes.
A big guy like this has already made the dark people lose their hair with sorrow, if there is another one, who can withstand this.
So, don't doubt the abyssal forces' homicidal intent on the Lord of the Flame.
So Alice must be ordinary, and she can only be ordinary, at least she must grow up to adulthood ordinarily, and when her divine soul and physical mortal body are completely integrated, then she will be a real divine person who can call for divine power to come, and there will be no risk of being strangled by the abyss in advance.
However, even the great Lord of the Flame would not have expected that his precious god would be picked up from the street by a false demon king of the abyss force, and then attacked by Asassia, and the two hit it off and quickly signed a contract that must not be violated.
Obviously, Alice, who is a god, is born with the ability to perceive good and evil, so how can she not be deceived by an evil demon, unless there is really that kind of good demon in this world.
Well, it's unfortunate that I really met Merlin, a demon who crossed over, or was cursed by his sister to become a fake demon king.
Who can I find to reason with this kind of thing?
Therefore, Merlin has been completely burned out, and on the second day of the crossing, he abducted the baby daughter of the savior of mankind, the baby sister of the first thug of mankind, what the hell is the difficulty of the game, this group is still running a fart, tear the card home early.
Although it is said that he, the fake demon king, also has the abyss mother as the backstage, so he should not have to worry about the lord of the fire who has become the sun, but that muscle can stand on the fist, can run a horse on the arm, and a head is as bright as the sun.
The old man can't do it easily, but the eldest brother's side still descends miracles from time to time.
Phew, what an old man, uncle, Alice is still a child, what do you want.
Merlin, frightened, had begun to speak incoherently.
"Please allow me to break the contract."
However, when he heard Alice's voice on the side, he was still shocked and came back to his senses.
Looking at the little girl with a guilty and uneasy face, who didn't want to bother herself, Merlin struggled to squeeze out a smile.
"No, it's not Alice's fault, and the demon contract, if you can cancel it casually, it's not the demon contract."
"You don't need to worry about this Alice, although it sounds very serious, but the problem is actually not big, I can withstand it, if you really want to help me, then eat well, study hard, work hard to grow up, and when you grow up, you can help me."
"Well, I really don't lie to you, it's just a little trouble, okay, go check out your new room, that's where you're going to live forever."
Gently soothing the restless little girl, Merlin's smile faded when the little girl followed the head maid suspiciously to see her new room in the castle.
He turned his head to look at the desk in the study, where there was a gift from Cynthia earlier, an invitation from Aldrich College to be a professor of occultism, and another long strip of gifts that had not yet had time to open.
"Ah, it smells so good."
Merlin laughed to himself.
He got up and walked to his desk and picked up the invitation.
Okay, the leisurely days of salted fish are over, and now it's time for the dead fat house to burst the liver.
After all, the contract you signed, no matter how hard and tired you are, you have to be responsible.
Fortunately, Alice is so young, there is still some time before she becomes an adult, and she can develop in a low-key manner for a few years.
Merlin was glad to be so.
