Chapter 437 (1/2)

Alice rolled her eyes, thinking that the little things were still worrying, telling herself what happened?Won't die!Maybe I can help.

”Just... don't you plan to tell me?”

Seeing what Alice was expecting, Merlin felt annoyed.

Even if he told the story, he was the great swordsman of Elgin, and his true identity was discovered.

Alice will definitely say: Please be normal, don't play the top you really think you are Elgin's great swordsman, OK?They are much better than you, right, right...

Merlin didn't need to try, and he would definitely get this kind of answer, so he didn't bother to explain.

And this matter has little to do with Alice, it is entirely a game between Merlin and Queen Elizabeth, there is no need to involve Alice.

”It's not a very important thing, so don't worry about it.”

”What do you mean by worrying about me? I...I'm not looking at you as if you are depressed, and want to see if you can help?” Alice's eyes dodged, expressing her concern very tactfully.

”Why are you so enthusiastic all of a sudden? You should be happy when I am troubled~” Merlin said in a mocking tone.

”Why am I happy?! Am I the kind of gloater!?” Alice retorted unconvincingly.

”Yes~” Merlin grinned and asked vigilantly, ”If something goes wrong, there must be a monster. Say, are you plotting something?”

”Enough of you!” Alice rose up angrily, her face a little gloomy, thinking that she was also kind, why Merlin always rejected herself?What else are you plotting?Is there any profit for a poor guy like Merlin??

”What...what's wrong?” Merlin frowned, wondering what Alice was excited about?

”Merlin, we...” Alice hesitated and said, ”We are... companions?”

Merlin thought for a while and nodded, ”I think so.”

”So...” Alice paused and said seriously, ”I hope you don't hide anything from me. If you have any troubles, you can tell me. If you can, I hope you can trust me more.”

After speaking, Alice left without looking back, expecting Merlin to tell her her troubles tomorrow.

However, Merlin was a little embarrassed looking at Alice's back, and thought helplessly

It sounds nice, but what's the point of speaking it out?

Alice can't help in any way, she might add to the chaos.

If you want a simple and clear showdown with the human queen, you still have to go alone...

Early the next morning.

Merlin woke up early, but it was still dark.

He simply packed up the things he must use on the road, and still planned to set off on his own to go to the Imperial City Hall Elizabeth.

Now Merlin is facing a dilemma that has attracted much attention, and Elizabeth is threatening him with this.

Although it didn't say anything in the letter, the breath of beating Merlin came over.

Merlin didn't want to face the situation after his identity was exposed, it would be good like now.

If her identity is exposed, Merlin's peaceful life will no longer exist, and she needs to deal with a large number of people who come here, or jump out of an enemy from time to time. The most terrible thing is that there is no good life to tear her face with the empire.

Although Merlin was not afraid of any enemies or hostility to the empire, at this time he wanted to protect things.

Recalling the warm figure of Alice hanging clothes not long ago, he felt a little nostalgic for this picture in his heart.

So Merlin wanted to protect the hard-won peace now, and didn't want to see Alice worried.

Merlin put on a black robe, pinned Taito to his waist, and wiped the silver mask in his hand.

”Almost ready, let's go...”

Merlin put on the mask and left home quietly. He left a letter to Alice on the table, telling him what to do.

”Alice, don't panic if you don't find me, I don't mean to leave you alone.”

”Actually, there is no big secret in the letter yesterday. It's just that a rich lady in the imperial capital wants to see me.”

”So I need to go out, and I will be back soon, don't read it.”

Not much time has passed.

Alice woke up and felt a little flustered when she saw that Merlin was not here.

Intuition tells her that Merlin should not be someone who has no sense of responsibility. After all, the two people still have joint debts.

If this suddenly fell on Alice alone, then she would have all the heart to die.

If you leave without saying goodbye, Merlin shouldn't do it.
