Back to Grande.
As Zach expected, Benjamin returned the baby Adam to his arms, "I need to rest..." and went back to the room to sleep alone.
Being alone meant that Benjamin had to have the bed to himself, and his wife, Mokavi, was not allowed to accompany him. Got it.
Mokavi was in good spirits. When Zach got home, he didn't know what he was talking to Nick. Nick looked like he wanted to hide but couldn't. When he saw Zach coming back, he quickly came over and said to Zach Wink and ask for assistance.
Zach was not prepared to care, "Where is Roy Zmich?" Roy seemed to be no longer in Grande.
"Corden's place!" Nick was unhappy.
"Call back, I have a meeting." Zach said and went directly into the Grand. "Serys, inform Allen Funeral Home that I have a Sabbat meeting."
Sabbat, this is a proper term, at least to Nick Giovanni. Specifically refers to the weekly Sabbat-related affairs reporting meeting in the west. The second-generation vampires reported the matter to Lutresembra, who then made a decision and handed it over to the person doing the work.
The current Sabbat Conference in the West, haha, is definitely not like this, but Nick has never participated in it, and he doesn’t know what it is like.
Therefore, after Zach said these four words, Nick's face was filled with joy. Remember, Zach once said bluntly to Nick that Nick was used to handing over his problems to superiors for decision-making. So the joy was that Nick thought Zach was finally getting a bit of a Sabbat vampire look.
But after the joy, his face turned gloomy and he chased Zach into Grande and up to the second floor, "Why did you call the people at Allen's funeral? Why do those three generations of vampires attend the Sabbat meeting!"
Zach glanced back at Nick, who was looking down from the stairs at the right time, "I asked them to come."
Nick pursed his lips. But he was not prepared to bear the pain. He turned around and looked down, "Why are you following me! Sabbat meeting, you are not a Sabbat vampire! Stay away from me!"
Yes, that's what I said to Mokawi.
Mokawei was also very wonderful. He really stopped in front of the stairs and leaned against the handrail with a sly look on his face, as if... coquettishly
Nick was confused if he didn't care, but he finally succeeded in getting rid of Mokawi with a sigh of relief, and entered the office with Zach.
Zach had just sat down and picked up the phone before Nick could sit down, "Go and use the phone in the living area." Because Cyrus was using the phone in the showroom downstairs, he called Allen, "By the way, bring Han Get it here."
Nick glanced at Zach and finally left the office without saying anything.
Zach glanced at Nick's leaving figure, dialed the number, and waited for a response.
This call was a cross-border call, to Louise.
Zach's state of mind has fallen into place, and he should inform the person closest to him in the world~
It was getting late now, and Zach had been outside all day long. Counting it, it was also the time when day and night changed over in the Republic. Louise, who had been cooperating with Eli's schedule, should be able to receive the call.
The phone was answered, and it was Eli's voice, "Toledo's home." This was the self-proclaimed voice, "Who are you calling?"
"Louise." Zach wasn't bothered by Eli's fake name.
"Yo~Zach~" Eli's tone was excited, he must be really happy. Understandable, this guy is probably the first person in this world to have an obsession with Zach!
Zach didn't reply and waited quietly for Louise.
Zach didn't hear a response from the receiver, and he didn't want to ask for trouble. Soon, it was Louise who answered the phone, "What's wrong?"
Zach had a smile on his face, "Listen~" and then turned the microphone to the baby Adam in his arms.
"Yeah... Yeah..."
Louise listened for a while and said without any tone, "What the hell."
"Benjamin and Mokawi's son~our godson~"
"Uh." Louise's reaction was real enough, "I don't want to know and I don't need to know. Just make it happy."
Don't be surprised, Zach became Adam's godfather, and there was almost no involvement from Louise in this matter (the reason for saying almost was that Zach didn't tell Louise personally, and he was counting on Alice who went to the Republic to tell him and Benjamin. A small conflict. So Louise probably knew the beginning of the matter, and now she knows the ending). Now Louise's attitude is completely normal. Do not believe? You can accompany your boyfriend/girlfriend to go out to adopt an adopted son and see how your boyfriend/girlfriend reacts.
Zach smiled and said, "I'm not too happy, but what if? Alpha and the Mokavi clan gave birth to a human son~"
Louise was quiet for a while, "Well..." After that, there was nothing.
Zach knows that Louise is thinking, and that’s enough. Whether the news from Barton’s side will have any impact on the Republic, what’s all about now is Louise’s operation. Zach doesn’t need to ask, Louise is worthy of Zach’s trust. .
"About the content of our last phone call." Zach spoke again, "I said that I also hate myself serving a certain group." Remember, Zach walked towards the door of selfish behavior.
"I thought about this again." Louise suddenly became worried, "You didn't..."
"Relax, now I have figured it out." Zach said with a smile, "I know what I should do. Louise, now I have decided to live for myself, Zachary."
"It doesn't sound like there's anything wrong with it." Louise answered quickly. Maybe it was because of the lover's filter. Louise might not have heard the 'malice' in it... She might have heard it, but she thought it should be~
It doesn't matter what the situation is, Zach will tell the whole story: "To live for myself, first I need to know who I am. Now, I am Zachary Grande, and I have Benjamin and Han by my side. Gram, Alice, these relationships that are inseparable from me already exist. Whatever I do in the future, I will never abandon them." Zach smiled, "Even if they want to abandon me~"
"Hehehe~" Louise smiled happily over there, "Yeah, naturally~"
"I am also Zachary Toledo." Zach shrugged into the air, "Toledo and vampire are labels that cannot be shaken off from this identity. So." Zach said, facing forward, "Instead of letting the world Put such labels on me, why not define these labels myself."
Louise stopped laughing and seemed to think for a while, "If you feel the weight of life, instead of treating it as a bondage of eternal life, it is better to use this weight to oppress the world."
Zach raised his eyebrows, "Where does this term come from? It's so appropriate~"
"It's appropriate~" Louise's tone was relaxed, "It's a literal translation of a certain 'warning' from the Republic~"
"It can't be the godhead of some Republic God." Based on Zach's understanding of the Republic God, he frowned slightly, "If you become a god based on this principle, you should be careful in the Republic. It sounds like you are not easy to mess with. guy."
"Don't worry~" Zach heard the sound of Louise waving her hands on the other side of the receiver. Louise was really relaxed, "He is indeed a god, but he is very Buddhist. He has already reached a certain level. Things in this world He won’t care~”
"What is 'Buddhism'?"
"It's just..." Louise paused for a while, "Buddhist style."
"Forget it." Zach shook his head in the air, a little envious of Louise. Obviously in the Republic, Louise's knowledge has exceeded Zach's life history, "I'm relieved that you are safe. But there are Something I might need you to do.”
"Tell me~" Louise said with a smile.
"I want you to change Eli Toledo's blood and make him a real Toledo."
There is no sound from the receiver.
After a while, someone else answered the phone, "Oh, my dear Zach~are you dreaming~" Eli's voice said.
"In this dream, you and I both have the blood of the real Toledo nobles. You and I have been together since four centuries ago (Eli sold Zack to the Toledo ancestors of the nobles at that time in exchange for A job that can survive in the famine era. Zach became Toledo, and Eli was scared away by Zach) and they have never been separated, isn't that good?" Zach responded to Eli's 'taunting' .
Oh, there is no sound on the other side of the receiver again. The microphone was switched back to Louise, "Well... he will agree."
Zach said with a smile, "How do you know?"
"If he refuses, he won't be abusing his poor food now." Louise laughed, "It just won't happen soon. But, can I ask why?"
"Because I think Eli's bloodline may become a tool for the Holy Lord Faith to cleanse vampires again." Zach answered, "I do not allow such bloodline to exist and threaten my identity as a vampire."
Louise was trying to follow Zach's train of thought, "Is it the inexplicable defense mechanism of Holy Lord faith that John mentioned in Grand last year?"
If you forget John's theory, let me mention the population of vampires here. The theoretical upper limit is the upper limit of human population. Vampires are the greatest threat to the souls needed for the faith of the Holy Lord. Of course, the fundamental reason for John's theory is that John is a wizard. His perspective on the Holy Lord's faith is always that the Holy Lord's faith is a thief who steals souls from this world. John's theory would not do any good to vampires and the Holy Lord faith. So if there was a theory that these two parties hated each other, John wished it were true.
It was a good thing that Louise didn't mention this. When she mentioned it, Zach blinked and finally understood why the relationship between Bumi and John was unreachable. The feeling is that John sincerely hopes that the vampire will have sex with the Holy Lord!
You can understand that the reason why Bumi's Nophele and the wizards are allied and bound is to follow the vampire-wizard pattern constructed by Zach and Sam, cut off the threat of vampires to the soul, and thus solve the hostility of the Holy Lord faith to vampires.
Zach shook his head and put this discovery aside, "No, it's Sissi's current state. I'm very worried about it." Zach tilted his head because Nick was back. Zach ignored Nick and continued to talk to the receiver, "A lot of things have happened in the past few days. Now Sissi is in a state where angels, demons and humans coexist. The blood of vampires cannot restrain her soul." Nick looked shocked and was about to speak. He raised his hand to shut up Nick, "But at the same time, all the historical issues between the vampires and the Holy Lord's faith have ended. The vampires have nothing to ask for from the Holy Lord's faith, and the Holy Lord has faith in the vampires, and they can't manipulate them. It should be. Now is the time for everyone to seek a future for their own race."
Louise interrupted, "You made it clear, but there is still a contradictory relationship between the Holy Lord faith and vampires as human souls. We can never be completely separated from the soul alien race."
"Of course it's impossible to divide it completely. The world is only so big." Zach said calmly, "The survival of any species is to usurp the living environment of other species. Did Alice talk to you about the paper she wrote for Kyle? Huh? There is no difference between alien races and animals in this world. Even high school students understand this."
Louise said "Hey."
"Don't think too much, everyone is just taking it one step at a time." Zach brought the rising topic back, "Sissi wants to collect the weapons used by the Holy Lord Faith to cleanse vampires last time, those soul daggers. Louise, Thousands of years ago, it was those daggers that forcibly elevated ascended vampires to a soulless state, causing the vampires to lose their restraint on alien souls and then be slaughtered by angels. Now Sissi hopes that I will help her recover these souls that are wandering in the world. Dagger. I don’t know what Sissi wants to do..."
Nick finally intervened, "You refuse!"
Zach glanced at Nick and said, "Okay, I refuse." He said, "Please inform Sissi on my behalf that I will not help her. I will copy Sissi's home address to you..."
Nick had already retreated far away, "You go alone! If I go, won't it make Sissy think this is the Sabbat?"
Zach didn't smile. "Am I not the Sabbat Toledo? What do you want to express by saying this? If what I say, the position I express is not the Sabbat's."
"I..." Nick didn't even realize what mistake he had made.
Zach realized for him: "Are you too naive? When I work for the Sabbat, I am Sabbat Toledo. When I have personal problems to solve, am I just the boss of the Grand Funeral Home? ."
Yes, what’s confusing about Zach turning people into vampires and turning vampires into adults is not just Zach himself. Everyone thinks that Zach can easily switch his identity... The fact is, Zach can’t. , already confusing myself to the point of almost having a mental breakdown.
Now that Zach has reorganized his broken identity and decided to return to himself and live a good life, none of the people around him can even think of escaping! You let Zach live like this! You guys are the weight providers for all the labels on Zach! Zach's life has already weighed ten thousand pounds. Seeing that this weight makes Zach unable to breathe, do you want to run? No way! Now, just hang on to Zach!
If you don’t help Zach, who weighs ten thousand pounds, to crush the world, then you will wait in the world to be crushed by Zach who weighs one less than ten thousand pounds!
Buddhist? do you mean this
Zach faced the receiver again, "I don't know what Sissi wants to do, so I need to take precautions from all angles. No matter how slim or distant the republic is on the other side of the world. Louise, I want to let Eli The bloodline of Toledo disappeared from this world!"
"Okay~"
