"Where have you been all these years?
Are your kids okay?
”Merlin sat by the fireplace of the mystery house, the warm flame burning beside him, and in the light of the fire, Merlin sat on the sofa, and the big orange cat Coo, which had disappeared for several years, lay on his lap.This cat was no different from before, it was still harmless to humans and animals, probably because of the temperature brought by the flames, which made Coo a little drowsy, its tail wagged around, and its head hung down to Merlin's hand, allowing Merlin to gently stroke its neck.Coo enjoyed the action, and narrowed its eyes in pleasure.In the face of Merlin's question, Goo replied with some uninterested: "Meow...
Meow meow...
Meow meow. ”"You sent your children to another planet 3 years ago?
And then you're wandering among the stars?
”Merlin probably understood Gollum's answer, and he grabbed Gollum's front paws with some dissatisfaction, lifted it into the air, and looked at it, saying, "Then why don't you go home?"
”"Meow!"
Coo stuck out its tongue and licked its lips, and it let out a slightly shrill chirp."
Oh, you want to find where you were born?
Is there anything you need?
”Merlin looked at his cat and asked, "Did you find it?"
”The big orange cat shook its head, it broke free from Merlin's restraints, flicked its tail, and landed lightly on the sofa on the other side, lying there, squinting leisurely.The bastard cat didn't seem to have been able to find the place where he was born, but it didn't seem lost."
After you left, something happened at home."
Merlin spoke to Goo as if he were talking to a family member far away from home about the changes over the years, saying, "Eric graduated from college and stayed there for graduate school, Charlie got into the same university 2 years ago, and they were really together, and those two kids were so busy with their studies that they rarely came home. ”"Oh, I forgot, you don't know Charlie yet.You don't know Raven either, and Lorna, Daisy, Matt...
When you think about it, so much has happened in the time you've been away. ”Merlin looked at the flames burning in front of him and said, "Those people you know, Harry and Ginny were married the year before last and had children, and Ron and little Hermione were always noisy.Carol went to the stars and never even sent a letter back, and Fury is still the same, living every day in the intrigues and plans of himself and others, and fighting wits and courage with everyone around him. ”"Meow," he cried out in dissatisfaction.Merlin glanced at it, and said, "You bastard, don't you care about them at all?"
”Coo ignored Merlin, probably because Merlin was too noisy, so he simply clumped himself up and covered his ears with his tail.Seeing this scene, Merlin couldn't help but smile.After all, Coo Coo is just a wild and untamable bastard cat, and it is a little too hard for a cat to understand human emotions."
Master Merlin."
Xuanlan appeared beside Merlin like a ghost, and she reminded, "In the outside world, it should be your time to get off work, your sister is knocking on your door, and she seems to have something to talk to you about. ”"Huh?"
Merlin glanced at the mahogany clock placed next to the wall of the mysterious house, the time had pointed to 6:40 p.m., he stood up and held the sleeping Goo Goo in his arms, Goo Goo did not resist, but moved his body, changed into a more comfortable position in Merlin's arms, and continued to sleep while patting Merlin's arm with his tail."
Then I'll leave first."
Merlin said to Xuanlan, "Take care of Coulson for me, and, is the Red Devil awake?"
”"He woke up 12 hours ago."
Xuanlan said with a calm face: "He has tried to escape from the Mystery House 159 times, and now he is making the 160th attempt, but his understanding of space is too shallow, and he can't break the dimensional anchor fixed at the dimensional level of the Mystery House just by relying on the instinct of jumping space." ”"Good."
Merlin nodded, and he said, "Just let him keep trying, let him keep hope."
I'll come back to see him when he's hopeless. ”With that, he hugged his cat and walked to the door of the hall.The next moment, Merlin opened the door and saw Raven standing in front of his bedroom door, reaching out and trying to knock on the door.Merlin pushed his glasses and said to his sister with great relief, "Is there something wrong?"
”"Where were you before?"
Raven looked at Merlin suspiciously, she was a magical girl, she could easily feel that Merlin did not appear from the bedroom, he was not in the bedroom at all.This guy is hiding some secrets that Raven doesn't know.The girl's eyes fell on the cat in Merlin's arms the next moment, and she stared at the fat orange cat in front of her, and she took a cautious step back.Apparently, she recognized Goo-Goo's true identity."
Where did the Elemental Devourer come from this time?
Why did you hold it in your arms?
”Raven said a little nervously, "Throw it away!"
It's going to swallow you and this house in one gulp, and now I can't deal with a Primal Devourer!
”"Oh, don't be nervous, girl."
Merlin stroked Coo's smooth fur as he said to Raven, "It's Coo, Cool Cat Coo."
It's been here for a lot longer than you, it's home, it's home, it's home, and no one can drive it away. ”"You keep a Primal Devourer as a pet?"
Raven looked at Merlin with a lunatic-like gaze, and she said, "Did you know that when the Elemental Devourer is ferocious, it can easily eat a city?"
The guns and bombs of your world can't deal with it. ”"That's not something Gollum would do, trust me."
Merlin hugged the cat and walked to the end of the stairs on the second floor, then squatted down and took out the luxurious cat nest that Eric had cleaned and made for Gollum from the locker, and then put the sleeping Gollum in the nest.He stood up, turned back to Raven who was crossed, and said, "You also have to have a good relationship with Gugu, it's family."
Well, don't bother Gollum, the poor guy has just finished an interstellar trip, it's tired right now, and it needs a break. ”Merlin reached out and patted Raven on the shoulder, and he said, "Let's go downstairs and talk." ”Raven looked at the coo lying in the cat nest again, and when she turned around, she saw that the big orange cat, which had been sleeping in Merlin's arms with a lazy face just a moment, was awake at this time, and it was squatting in its nest, looking at Raven with a scrutinizing gaze.It's like looking at a creature that has trespassed into its territory.That gaze is anything but friendly...
Raven, who has lived in the world of Azax, knows that creatures like the Primal Eaters will wander among the stars all their lives, they have unpredictable personalities, they maintain a wild nature and a certain amount of wisdom, and occasionally devour the planet to satisfy their appetite, and it is said that the Elemental Eaters are the pets of the terrifying gods of the stars, and they have an insatiable stomach like their owners.For any planet and civilization, a fully grown Elemental Eater is a natural disaster, and although the Goo in front of him is still in its infancy, it is just as dangerous to the earth."
I don't know how Merlin tamed it."
Raven walked down the stairs step by step under the watchful eye of Coo, and she whispered, "I wonder why it didn't eat Merlin when they first met...""
Lorna, turn down the cartoon's voice."
Merlin sat on a chair at the dining table and shouted to Lorna, who was lying on the couch watching cartoons, "Stop snacking, we're going to have dinner later." ”"Oh" Lorna replied, the well-behaved girl picked up the remote control and turned down the sound of the TV, Raven also sat down in the chair next to Merlin, she took out a letter, and said to Merlin, "The 'magician' has come to New York." ”"So fast?"
Merlin was stunned for a moment, and he said to Raven, "Didn't you ask her to meet after a few days?"

”She said her stage magic troupe decided to come to New York to perform on the fly.Ruiwen also said helplessly: "This is completely an emergency. ”"You mean, let me go to her in your place now?"
Merlin frowned and said, "But we're not ready yet, if she asks about mystical magic, I can't answer, it will be revealing."
Moreover, I didn't ask you before, if you are really afraid of affecting your image, then you can refuse to meet her, why are you so persistent?
”"Because she's so generous, Merlin."
Raven pointed to the three packages on the table, and she said to Merlin, "There are 7 magical artifacts in them, as well as materials that can help you purify your demonic aura, so she sent them directly."
Do you know how much these things are worth?
Do you know how difficult it is to find another trader who is as big and silly as 'magician' in my current situation?
”"Hmm...," Merlin looked at his sister and said, "You used her for an ATM?"
”"Don't say it so ugly."
Raven said dissatisfiedly: "I also gave her the knowledge she needs, this is an equivalent exchange!"
What's more, you've also benefited, the materials needed to purify the aura are complete, and now I can purify the demonic aura on your body...
So, will you help me or not?
”"Help."
Merlin nodded, and he said, "But how are you going to solve the problem of occult knowledge?"
”"It's simple."
Raven waved her hand, and she said, "Leave your pesky bird at home, so that no matter what question she asks, I can answer it as soon as possible, and you just need to read it according to the answer in your heart." ”"Victor?"
Merlin suddenly realized, he waved his hand, and with a terrible chirp, the dark red raven spirit Victor appeared at the table.The bird folded its wings and stood on the table, and it glanced at Raven, who was sitting next to Merlin, with a little fear, and it seemed that it remembered the last time it had died.And the way Victor shrunk his head and brain, it's really cowardly."
Alright, now everything is ready!"
Raven reached out and took a package, she took out a few seeds with a magical aura from it, and she said to Merlin: "Come to the alchemy room to help me, the purification potion is very easy to make, and after about 1 hour, no one will be able to detect that you are a demon disguised as a human." ”"I've always been human, Raven."
Merlin said seriously, "I've never pretended. ”Raven glanced at her brother, and she snorted: "Forget it, I don't want to quarrel with you, just say whatever you say." ”——————————————————————Two hours later, at 8:30 p.m., Merlin, dressed in a more formal black suit and tie, drove to the Chinese Grand Theatre in New York.The mysterious "magician" lady gave the address to meet here.Merlin pushed his glasses in confusion, and in front of his theater, some of the audience members who had come out of the theater were discussing the magic they had just seen.Merlin stood by and listened, and realized that they were not only talking about the magic itself, but also about the magician who was performing the magic show.Well, from the slightly vulgar words of these men, Merlin could probably imagine that it was a very amazing female magician that men could not forget.That's probably Miss Magician herself."
What an unexpectedly simple codename."
Merlin whispered, "I thought it was just a disguise, but I didn't expect her to be a magician." ”He straightened his clothes and quietly disappeared when no one was looking, and a few minutes later he was backstage in the theater, where the magicians were preparing for their second show of the night, and judging by the expressions on their faces they were, their first performance was clearly a success.However, most of the clothes worn by these magicians are very similar, they are all black tuxedos, black top hats, holding canes with hidden secrets, and those beautiful, slightly revealing magician's assistant girls, who are also touching up their makeup backstage.Merlin under the shadow cloak pushed his glasses, and in his psychic state, he caught the breath of magic, and he followed it all the way to a closed box."
The appearance is more mysterious."
Raven's voice rang in Merlin's head, and she advised, "Show your temperament as a master of the occult, and make the 'magician' think you're a powerful spellcaster at first sight, so that she no longer doubts your identity." ”"I'm already a powerful spellcaster, okay?"
Merlin replied, "There is no need for disguise at all. ”"Hehe, it's good if you're happy...
Now, go meet her. ”At Raven's urging, Merlin dissipated into a mist and silently infiltrated the closed box.In the box, there is also a dressing table, and a young lady is sitting in front of the makeup mirror, carefully touching up her makeup.She wore a magician's black and white tuxedo on her upper body, apparently carefully tailored, and the dress was tight and not cramped, showing off the woman's proud figure.In particular, the towering chest can indeed attract the attention of men for the first time.She had long, waist-length black hair that flowed like a waterfall in the light.And the lower half of her body, wearing this pair of black hot pants, black fishnet stockings collapsed on two dizzying, perfect legs, and black high-heeled leather boots on her feet.Very bold, very seductive outfit, perfectly shows her proud charm, and it is indeed pleasing to the eye.Merlin noticed that the young lady had blue eyes that resembled Raven's, and they were very beautiful."
Very nice clothes."
A moment later, a deep voice rang out in the dressing room."
But for wizards, it's a little too frivolous."
The startled Miss Magician turned her head sharply, and she already had an extra black wand in her hand, which was hidden in the magic staff she used for the show.Behind her, in the darkness that should have been empty, a figure was sitting.The magic of darkness condensed into smoke, forming a strange chair for the man sitting in the shadows, his legs crossed, his elbows resting on the armrests of the Smoke Chair, his fingers interlaced on his chest, as if admiring the beauty of the lady in front of him."
Hello, magician."
Merlin whispered, "You want to see me...""
So, here I am..." ()
