Zach was helping Nuo brush the sand off his body, "How did you bury yourself in it?" He was really curious.
"Detective James Lance helped~" No replied with a smile.
Zach smiled and tilted his head.
"Are you surprised?" Nuo Ye patted his sandy body and asked.
"Not at all." Zach glanced at the sea, "Go and take a shower."
Nuo smiled and walked into the sea.
James is here. No one would be surprised. James who left the 'General's bar could not ignore the reason why he met with the 'General'.
When Nuo came back wet, "It's still a little cold at night~~" Nuo rubbed his body to create heat, "Let's go into my house."
Zach followed, "Didn't James stop 'General' from dispelling my enchanted pupil?" Still curious.
"No." Nuo opened the door for Zach and motioned for Zach to go to the living room and wait. He entered the bathroom and when the sound of water sounded, "Do you remember when Murphy Assamat was still in Barton, she and I Have you ever had a heart-to-heart talk together?"
"Brother Quest was entrusted with a scam." Zach remembered the reason why he was reminded of it recently. But a heart-to-heart talk? What can Murphy talk about...
"About balancing the life of aliens and humans." Nuo's voice was not loud, and he was completely sure that Zach could hear his own voice through the sound of water. "Murphy compared James and me, very objectively, Logical and rational comparison~”
Zach may not know the details, but we know, uh... If you don’t remember, there’s no need to read it. The general idea is that No’s life is completely out of balance. Just like Murphy, who was once a human (who couldn’t accept that her husband Zach is a vampire), he has become a vampire. The tragedy of life. On the contrary, although James is on the verge of losing control of his emotions at any time, he still maintains a balance and at least maintains his own attitude when facing this complex world.
"I told James that I wanted to find my balance." Nuo continued, "He didn't stop him." Nuo's laughter came from the sound of water, "He even had some doubts about the 'General's' ability. , said that he would come to you directly to remove the enchanting pupil."
Zach smiled and sat down on the sofa. There were scattered documents on the coffee table, which should be the commission that Nuo was handling recently. Zach glanced at it without looking through it, "Are you still paying attention to Quest's brother's case?"
"Yeah." He sighed, but he wasn't really annoyed. "It's not like you don't know what Quest is like. I shouldn't have owed him any favors before~"
Remember this, the several times Nuo got involved in foreign affairs were all because of Quest’s commission. Just because Quest owed him a favor based on Nuo, when no one was willing to help him, a control freak, he only turned to Nuo!
Zach kept his smile and said seriously, "Under my charming eyes, you tried your best to avoid contact with foreign races, but life is forcing you to keep in contact with such things. You need balance."
"Yeah~" Nuo came out of the bathroom, wrapped in a comfortable bath towel, went to the wine cabinet, took two cups and two bottles of wine, walked over to Zach, and gave Zach a cup and a bottle of wine, with a smile on his face.
Zach took the bottle and looked at Nuo with some surprise, "This is blood." He opened the bottle and smelled it, "Human blood. Why do you put this at home?"
"It's not just Quest's commission that forced the appearance of aliens in my life~" Nuo poured himself a normal wine and also poured Zach's food for Zach, "You remember, I met you one time, Did you complain about being harassed by sea monsters on my beach?"
Zach smiled helplessly, "Are you using this blood to protect yourself from the sea monster?"
"Yeah~" Nuo smiled, "The effect is pretty good. I made those sirens think that I, who always prepares vampire food, are related to vampire Barton. Sure enough, the sirens won't harass me~ at least in my home The neighborhood is now clean~"
Zach raised the cup, looked at the red color in the cup, and said thoughtfully, "When you are still under the influence of my Charming Eyes, it is very painful to do this kind of thing in order to avoid being harassed by the sea monster. Bar."
"Yeah, it's very painful." Nuo nodded and stood next to Zach. "I used to be a pretty confident man. I thought that no matter what situation I got into, I had the ability to test myself out of it." Remember? Nuo is the man who was once ambushed by a hunter and escaped unscathed! "At that time, my life was full of cliffs that I could not cross, and the only way I could escape was to pretend to be a friend of a vampire in the most annoying way I could." Pay attention to the context, this is under the Eyes of Charm Nuo's journey.
"I'm sorry." Zach looked at Nuo seriously, "I used the Charming Eye on you to keep you safe."
"You don't have to apologize." Nuo waved his hand and clinked glasses with Zach, "I volunteered. After all, it was me who realized what you were and then understood the world too fast. I did a bad thing Decision." Drinking wine together, "Now I have corrected this bad decision." A very positive summary.
"What about you now?" Zach asked anyway. From a practical point of view, the cliff in Nuo's life has not disappeared.
Nuo smiled at Zach, "At least now when I need help, I won't feel like I'm doing something I hate." Nuo clinked glasses with Zach again, "I only know that it's time to invite my friends Help me~"
Nuo has probably found out the truth. People probably don't cherish their lives as much as they imagined. The most important thing in life is peace of mind.
Zach's Charming Eyes may provide safety for Nuo's life, but psychologically... it is unsatisfactory for this gray professional. This is the balance that Nuo needs to rediscover.
Zach took another sip of his wine, "Do you want me to check it?" he asked with a smile.
No looked Zach in the eyes and said, "Please."
Zach's eyes turned red, and Nuo looked at Zach cooperatively without any grudge.
He looked at Nuo with red eyes, "'General' is good, a little sloppy in some places, but..."
Nuo frowned, "Reckless is not the evaluation I expected."
His red eyes were bent, "Do you mind if I adjust it?"
Nuo was still sure, "Don't let me suddenly go crazy one day."
"No." Zach explained while adjusting the effect of the Charming Eyes. "'General' overwrites the false memory I put in your memory. The principle of 'avoiding foreign races' will theoretically no longer affect your actions. But..." There was an obvious light flashing slightly in Zach's eyes, "If you encounter some unexpected situation, there is no guarantee that your instinct will not re-awaken this principle... "
"It sounds dangerous to me." Nuo curled his lips.
"What I'm doing now is..." Zach smiled and explained what he was doing while operating, "You don't need principles to connect what you just said in your heart to this..." Zach was quiet for a while, "Even if it is awakened, You can also tell immediately that this is not what you really think... Done."
Zach's eyes returned to normal, "How do you feel?"
"I feel like my brain has undergone an operation." Nuo rubbed his eyes, "Are you sure my brain is still mine~" It was a joke, you could tell.
Zach smiled and nodded, "It's all yours, including the logic every time you voluntarily fall under the Charm Eyes. It's all yours. I didn't add anything, and I didn't take anything away. I just let it remain in your memory." Smoother.”
Nuo closed his eyes and felt it, then sighed with a smile, "Vampires are really magical things."
"Thank you~"
Clink glasses again, as if this chance meeting has a lot to celebrate~
"Enough talking about me~" Nuo looked at Zach, "Let's talk about you and Benjamin~"
Zach curled his lips without concealing it, "James and the 'General' should have told you about the matter."
"Uh-huh." Nuo said with a gossipy look, "Child? Really? No offense intended, do you have this function?"
"No." Zach didn't mind, but he finally had a normal person to talk to about this matter. Zach felt very relaxed, "At least it's not in my common sense." Looking at Nuo, "Werewolves and vampires create descendants. The method has always been the inheritance of blood, and we do not have the reproduction method of ordinary creatures."
"What about Benjamin and Mokawi?"
Zach's face was helpless, "Benjamin is no longer a normal werewolf. The wizard's spice. You know, Benjamin has been evolving. Mokawi is not a vampire in my common sense. I won't talk about Mokawi's attributes. She is still A complete vampire." Zach shook his head, "These two guys who are not common sense in the world together?" He continued to shake his head.
I promised Zach that I understand your expression even though I don't understand, "That means that it can't be understood with common sense anyway, so just think of it as, well, 'that's it anyway'. Like me at the beginning, when I realized that you were a vampire ." These words are a bit warm, "You are the same Benjamin and Mokawe that I know you, and you are still the Benjamin and Mokawe that you know."
Zach wanted to agree to such comfort, but there was still a hurdle in his heart that he couldn't get over. "Benjamin is no longer the Benjamin I knew. He set a trap for me. Can you believe it? I have fallen into the trap he set for me today." .As for Mokavi, I really don’t want to know her if I can.”
That's just for friends, Zach wouldn't be so straightforward with others.
"Haha, do you think Benjamin is a bad student~"
"Yes." Zach nodded with a frown.
"Can you blame him~" Nuo raised his hand and clinked his cup with Zach's cup.
Zach got it
We know Zach has been blaming Mokawe for Benjamin's changes because of convenience. But to be honest, isn’t the real reason for Benjamin’s change because of Zach
Zach raised his glass and said, "Yes, I deserve it." He admitted with self-abandonment.
"Okay. I think you've missed the point a little bit. The point of this matter is not Benjamin and Mokawi, but the child~" Nuo Ye is indeed a sensible person, "Can you really ignore the birth of this child? ?”
"No." Zach answered simply, "The child who gained life in Barton." He continued to give up on himself, "will definitely appear in front of me in some way."
"That's it. Is it so difficult for you to accept being the 'godfather' of this child?"
Zach looked at Nuo, "Have you already chosen your side? Do you want to convince me to become the godfather of a child who doesn't know anything?"
Nuo smiled and shook his head, "I'm not going to choose sides. I'm just asking you this question~" The smart guy said, "There must be a reason why you are in such a bad mood. Tell me."
"I'm not a good guardian." Zach said bluntly, "The relationship between 'General' and me." Put your hands, no need to explain, "The relationship between Charlie and me." No need to explain, "The relationship between Ian and me." No explanation …
"Why didn't you say Louise?" Nuo Wuhai asked.
"Louis is different." Zach was speechless. "The ethics of vampire descendants are fundamentally different from the ethics of the next generation of humans."
"Oh." Nuo didn't seem to be prepared to try to understand the ethics of vampires. "That child is not your descendant. Strictly speaking, you don't need to treat him as his guardian. Benjamin and Mokawi are."
Nuo hit the important point. It was Zach who confused ethics.
Zach blinked, "Then why do you want me to be the godfather? If Benjamin and Mokawi don't want to teach their children, wouldn't it be better to hire a tutor."
"The ever-evolving Alpha and the complete vampire Mokavi, their children, need tutors, in this reality, probably..." Nuo swung his wine glass and silenced himself.
Zach frowned, "You said you didn't choose a side, stop trying to convince me." He complained.
Nuo still insisted on what he said, "I didn't choose a side~ I said it~" with a smile, "I just asked a question~" Nuo is really smart.
Zach frowned, "Besides me, there are many powerful and capable beings in this world. For example, God, there are a lot of them in the Republic." Zach was already talking nonsense, which only proves that Zach is true Seriously consider the reasonableness of Benjamin's request.
"But no matter what, it must be a god that both Benjamin and Mokawi recognize and trust." Nuo Ji swung his wine glass, "Even if it is a god." Nuo raised his eyebrows, "I heard that the god that the Holy Lord believes in, Holy Lord, did you send that West away?"
Zach was very alert and looked at Nuo, "This does not mean that I have reached the level of a god. The technology used to send away the Holy Lord is the technology of Zmich and the wizard!"
"Oh~" Nuo smiled and gave up on this direction, "Then if I remember correctly, the only gods I know now are the gods of witchcraft, Papa Midnight, and Gonghe... By the way, your original Grande That republican woman, Mo, right?"
Zach completely understood what Nuo wanted to say. In this world, the only person in the world who is worthy of educating Benjamin and Mokawi's children is really Zach.
OK! Zach admitted this temporarily, "You seem to have thought a lot about this matter. Why?"
"James was whispering in my ear when I was buried in the beach." Nuo shrugged, then became serious, "He is really afraid of something." Looking at Zach, "Andrew said to him The blow seemed to be huge. He said that this was the first time that you didn't really rationalize the incident in alien and human society. Now, such uncontrolled children are coming again. James Lance, is really worried .”
