"Lyle went to open the door. He came to look for you." Asa skillfully supported Gal's buttocks, "What's wrong with you? Huh? He called you a little bat?" Asa looked back at Lyle in surprise.
The place where Lyle was originally standing was empty, and a fat red-skinned bat was about to fly with its wings shaking.
"Little bat, do you want to fly down the window?" The voice outside paused, and Asa saw the metal doorknob turn red quickly, until...
— Click!
The door without a lock was slowly opened, and a tall man stood against the light, holding something in his hand.
Asa guessed the identity of the person coming from Lyle's reaction, raised his eyebrows and did not stand up.
Tap, tap, tap.
The sound of leather shoes stepping on the floor was very abrupt at this moment.
"Ah, I found you, little bat. Are you going to jump out of the window and escape? Or are you welcoming me?" The tall man stopped by the window, squatted down and grabbed Lyle's wings.
The red-skinned bat let out bursts of low-frequency calls, struggling non-stop in the opponent's hand.
"You are still so cute." The tall man held Lyle's wings tightly, and took a deep sniff in front of him, "However, you seem to be contaminated with the smell of many people. You said, the skinned bat is still Is there someone else's smell?" The voice was still elegant, but the other party deliberately lowered the speed and voice, appearing a bit cold.
The low-frequency cry of the red-haired bat became more urgent. Although the wings were tightly bound, his body struggled even harder.
Asa and Gal, who were sitting on the bed watching the show, raised their eyebrows at the same time. Asa felt that if he didn't intervene, he might be killed, or a bat
-Snapped.
"Sir, who are you?" Asa turned on the light in the room and asked directly to the man by the window.
The man squatting on the ground grabbed the bat's wings and slowly got up, and then Asa focused on the other's facial features.
It was a face that matched the tone of his voice, with classical and deep features paired with light brown hair, and a decent and elegant suit, giving off a gentle and refined look on the whole.
It's just that it doesn't match what he said.
The man didn't speak after he stood up, and looked at the man on the bed and the baby sitting in his arms looking at him coldly with the corners of his eyes slightly raised.
If he guessed right, this is the goal of his trip, the pure blood generation, but why didn't he smell the dark aura unique to pure blood from him.
Instead, clean
"Hi, my name is Seaman. Raphamon. Toledo, I'm Lyle's father." The man who called himself Seaman bowed to Asa and introduced himself politely.
It's not as deep as it was when he spoke to the red-haired bat just now.
Asa frowned, "Father? Claire said you were his cousin."
Seaman raised his eyebrows noncommittally, and sat on the sofa with a smile, "Strigoi generally have two fathers. I was his cousin when he was born, but I was the one who gave him eternal life."
"It was you who gave him his first hug?" Asa was taken aback, then chuckled, "So you are indeed his father, and Lyle is a troublesome bat."
Heman hooked the corners of his lips, pointed to the silent baby sitting in Asa's arms with his chin, and said pointedly, "Your son is also very cute."
"No, I'm not actually his father..." Asa explained.
"Father." The baby, who was looking at Seaman coldly, suddenly turned around and asked with an innocent face, "Father? What is father?" Although the words were spoken intermittently, Asa somehow understood what he meant.
Asa was startled, lowered his head expressionlessly, and said calmly, "Father is the one who raised you, do you understand what I said?"
After getting the answer, Gal turned his head and sat down contentedly.
Seaman smiled gently, "Your son looks to be one and a half years old. In fact, a one and a half-year-old child can understand a lot of words."
Asa frowned, and said with some hesitation, "Actually, before I went out at noon, he only had one." Asa stretched out his hand and gestured for a length, "It's so big."
Seaman smiled gently, and gave Gal a meaningful look, "His hair color is so weird, maybe the growth cycle is also weird?"
Asa frowned, and looked down at Cal, who was sitting obediently between his legs, "Yes, is that so?" Is that why he was abandoned by his parents
Seaman raised the red-skinned bat that was still struggling in his hand, "By the way, I just heard that the little bat said that he wanted a son? If I cut this thing off, what do you think is the chance of having a son? "
After speaking, he pinched Xiaodoudou between the bat's legs.
The red-haired bat shook its body in his hand, and shrugged its head limply, like a defeated rooster.
"Mr. Seaman, can you explain why you came here this time? In fact, I don't believe that you will come here specially for Lyle." Asa casually stroked the soft hair on the top of Gal's head, seemingly unintentionally asking.
Seaman tapped the sofa quilt with his fingers, "Actually, the past few years since Lyle ran out, I want to catch him back every minute, personally."
Asa looked at the wilting red-haired bat with a half-smile, "How many years? I heard from Lyle that it was decades."
"He probably wants to lie to himself that he has been running for a long time, or." Ximan paused, looking at the animal in his hand with gentle eyes, "Leaving me makes him feel like a year? Every day is a year, isn't it mine? Little cousin?"
The red-haired bat glanced back at him weakly, its small black eyes looked extremely sad, "..."
"Hundreds of years ago, the church signed an agreement with the vampires, which granted the vampires below the third generation the right to walk in the human world, but the condition is that vampires above the second generation can never enter the human world." Seaman picked up from the ground. Picked up the gold wire cage that came with it, and threw the red-haired bat into it.
Asa frowned watching his skillful actions, "Then you..."
"Because of you, a fourth generation of Bruhe sent back news that he saw a pure blood who had just passed his infancy in the human world. You must know that the creation of new vampires requires the consent of the elders, and one more pure blood The blood means that Lord Cain has come to the human world, and his teeth are itching to bite people."
While speaking, Seaman pulled out a slender metal anklet from the cage, and with a soft "snap", the metal anklet on the chain locked the red-haired bat's wings.
Asa raised his brows with interest, and saw Heman pull a delicate silver iron ring from his pocket, pull it over the other leg of the red-haired bat and snap it on.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I haven't finished talking just now, so the Thirteen Clans sent someone out to look at that pureblood, and by the way look for Lord Cain who has been missing for hundreds of years." Seaman looked at the bat cage and the bat cage with satisfaction. The red-haired bat.
"I thought Mr. Seaman was mainly looking for Lyle, and secondly looking for Cain. You don't seem to care about my existence." Asa chuckled lightly. Dai is afraid that he is going crazy, otherwise he will not break the treaty with the church and let the second generation come out.
"You guessed it, I'm really not in a hurry to find Cain, maybe he can't help biting because you're a little too attractive, but after all, there are not many people like this. I'm not worried about your existence either. It will break the balance of the blood clan world, that's not my concern." In just a few words, Seaman explained his attitude towards this matter.
Asa stared closely at Heman's light brown pupils, and chuckled after a while, "If that's the case, when is Duke Heman going to go back?"
"I haven't been here for hundreds of years, and I don't plan to go back so soon. As for business or something—" Smiling, he looked down at the bat huddled in the corner of the cage, "At least let me find out where the little bat smells from. here."
Asa looked at the clock on the wall, "It's nine o'clock, and Cal is going to bed. I believe you brothers must have a lot to say. Lyle's room is next door. You can ask him which one it is."
As soon as Asa's words came out, the bat shrunk in the cage tossed harder, flapping its wings and pulling on the cage gate to try to get out.
Seaman smiled and stood up, turned around and lifted the cage, "The baby really needs enough sleep, and I really need to have a good talk with my cousin, so I'll take my leave first." After speaking, he looked at the silver-haired baby with no deep meaning. , owed and walked out.
Asa watched the door slowly close, his eyes dimmed slightly.
Four generations of Bruch? Dean should be the only one who has seen him.
"Dad? Sleep." Gal turned around and grabbed Asa's waist, looking at him from the bottom up, his big emerald green eyes staring straight at him.
"..." Asa and Gal stared at each other for a while, then turned their heads away with flickering eyes.
Anyway, since I can't give birth to myself, it doesn't seem like a problem to raise a son... right
"Well, sleep."
Asa said awkwardly, the lake-blue pupils slowly turned red, and the loose and damaged doorknob returned to its original shape little by little, "Ka".
The corners of Gal's mouth curled up slightly, and he looked at Asa innocently (yi) really (du) innocently (huai shui), "I want to take a bath."
Asa was taken aback, "Okay, then go to bed first." Just as he was about to put Cal down, he was gripped even tighter by the other party, "Huh? What's the matter?"
Cal's eyes were wet, and he pursed his mouth in an aggrieved look, "Dad, Uncle Lyle is dirty."
Asa frowned, "You want to wash too? Huh? How can you speak such a long sentence?" He narrowed his eyes and stared at Cal.
The other party looked directly at Asa without evading, "Dad doesn't like me?" The child's milk voice had a sticky nasal sound, and the words were stuck intermittently.
"..."
Asa silently turned his face away and stared at the newly repaired door. Could it be that the way to open the door was wrong tonight? How did Gal become different
Asa stared at Cal blankly, did Lyle give Cal a ripening agent while he was away
"Taking a bath?" Cal looked at Asa who fell into silence, his pupils flashed a glint of success, and he squeezed Asa's arm with his hands, burying his whole face in the other's stomach.
Asa hugged him and got off the bed, and said lightly, "Okay."
