A new day, a new beginning.
Zach is waiting for Louise's call in the office. The Republic is concerned about the results of Eli's blood transfusion, and Zach intends to discuss with Louise the current unified world view of vampires and witchcraft beliefs. After all, this time' The battlefield to protect the world is no longer the federal continent where the witchcraft belief resisted the invasion of the Holy Lord belief brought by vampires four centuries ago, but the republican government to clear out all republican aliens who have no sense of belonging to the republic.
Everyone else in Grandry also has their own goals for the day. Let’s not talk about Roy and Nick’s mission of just continuing to make the Sabbat stronger. Let’s focus on Lily and Logan.
Yesterday, the quarrel between the interracial couple did not end well. The tit-for-tat confrontation between the two was forcibly interrupted when Nana returned from the nursery. Two adults at least know how to maintain appearances in front of a child.
Nana was sent back by Mu En. Although Nana was young, she was not mentally retarded. She could feel the tension between the two adults, so she acted as a very competent isolation zone for one night, occupying Lily and asking various girls about their growth. The 'little troubles' you will encounter in the process, such as the little boy who is too clingy to you... Everyone knows who it is, Andrew.
While Lily switches gears and takes on the role of mother, giving advice to Nana, Logan, on Zach's part, is depressed.
Then Zach wouldn't hold back his curiosity and asked Logan about him being predicted to become a werewolf.
The entire conversation process did not go smoothly due to Logan's personal emotions. I will not repeat it completely here. I will describe it narratively.
The black witch's habit is not to directly predict someone's death scene, but to watch with a so-called evil heart to see how things get to that point. Everyone knows this, and Zach also understands it quite well, so the first thing Zach is curious about is why the Black Witch directly told Logan the direction of his life
Logan's answer was that the Black Witch felt that there was no need to watch the direction of his life. Things happened quickly and naturally.
It should be noted that the things described next are all future processes.
Ravenqi, who succeeded Sheila, had resources. He needed someone familiar with the Sabbat society in the western part of the Federation to send out the news that Barton had an Alpha who could provide a stable life for the werewolves.
The reason why we chose to start this news from the western part of the Federation is that some time ago, the Sabbat captured a group of werewolves trying to create Alpha (led by Nick and Cappadocia's ancestor Xiao Ka, who also took the opportunity to come to Grande to meet (Zach), remember.
Rather than finding the right audience to send the message in the chaotic middle, in the Western Sabbat, there are a group of poor werewolves who need to be rescued from the Sabbat vampires, waiting to make a name for Ravenci, the Alpha, in the Federation.
As mentioned before, of course, Revanch came to Grande to find Zach to find someone, and what he wanted was Logan who could perform this job perfectly.
The second curious thing Zach wanted to ask had already been answered as to which Alpha descendant Logan would be.
The answer was already there, and the reason was sufficient, so Zach continued to ask Logan. Although Logan knew in advance that he would become a descendant of Ravenci, if this matter had not been predicted, why did Logan do it now? I will agree to Rui Wenqi's invitation.
Logan had obviously thought about this question when Zach asked. His answer was very straightforward. If he wanted to get rid of all the troubles he saw around Zach regarding the fate of vampires, werewolf was the best route. Otherwise, The werewolf also has Papa Midnight as his backing, while the vampire can only rely on himself.
This answer was heartbreaking, and Zach could only add a few words of humility, saying that the West End was a good location, and that Logan could provide Lily and Nana with a stable life in the future. It also comforts Logan, who cannot reach an agreement with Lily, that he can use the present world to refute Lily's view that only vampires are a 'good' race in the future.
So, today, Logan and Lily had no intention of making peace after one night. Lily stayed in Grande. The job she was assigned by Pochquin today was to convince Zach to betray the promise she had made to Sissi. The promise of letting the black witch hold the soul dagger...
Lily stayed in Grande, and Annabel also showed no intention of returning to Logan's position (showroom counter), and insisted on holding on to Zach's 'secretary' identity. Logan had no place to stay in Grandry, so he decided to go to the Ancestors Office to speed up the process and rely on the Ancestors Office to connect with Rui Wenqi in advance.
Alas, because of Logan's proactive action to welcome the progress of life, Lily, who stayed in Grande, became very irritable.
"I want you to capture Logan right now and forcibly turn him into a vampire!" Lily slapped the table and ordered Zach with a coercive attitude and attitude.
Zach would be surprised if he heard, "No."
"Then forget the promise Sissi forced you to make! Let the Black Witch keep the soul dagger obtained from the Newton Demon War!"
Zach raised his eyebrows, "Are you treating me like a child and giving me two options that both suck?"
"Is there a problem?!" Lily almost shouted in Zach's face.
"No problem." Zach shrugged, quite innocently. The man and woman who were 'written' as a couple by the former West quarreled, and he was completely innocent involved! But Zach wouldn't say anything unnecessary, "It's just that I don't expect you to support me, so I can say no to both options."
Lily crossed her arms and sat opposite Zach, looking frustrated and not wanting to talk anymore.
Zach shook his head, "Well, at least Pochquin sent you to persuade me to give up my commitment to the saints. You must have prepared some reasons. Tell me."
Lily's face was very gloomy. She didn't look at Zach and stared at the table. "His reason is that he imagined that due to work pressure, I had to resist you, a guy with flowers on his tongue, to make him happy!"
Uh, what a naughty excuse this is.
Zach shook his head again, and after being quiet for a while, he raised his eyebrows, "So, Pochquin doesn't expect you to convince me. He let you here just to..." Zach grasped what Lily just said. The key point is, "Resist me." Zach tilted his head and smiled, "Hold me and prevent me from going to Newton to find the black witch and get the soul dagger~"
Lily glanced at Zach, and then naturally turned into a white eye. This is the attitude of being too lazy to deny.
"Haha." Zach smiled again, "Then your work will be very easy today. I have no plans to go to Newton today. I will wait here for Louise's call."
After hearing what Zach said, Lily wanted to stand up, but she immediately sat down again and said, "To be on the safe side, I'd better watch you here!"
"It's up to you." Zach didn't care. Lily just didn't want Pochquin to catch him slacking off at work.
But one thing Zach had to ask, "You will be here with me anyway, why not explain to me, if I give up on recovering the soul dagger, what can the black witch do with the soul dagger?" There is another question to this question. Another way of putting it is how Pochquin convinced the Black Witch not to give the dagger to Toledo.
Lily glanced at Zach again, not to hesitate, but to prepare Zach with her eyes
"The soul dagger can destroy the legacy of the black witch." Lily looked at Zach, "The soul harmed by the soul dagger will not be able to give birth to the Banshee."
Remember, the banshee has nothing to do with bloodline inheritance. It is a curse randomly born among the wizard families who prayed to Papa Midnight and were paid by Papa Midnight.
Now we know that this curse that can see death is attached to the soul ~ and the way to break this curse is to use the soul dagger to attack the soul.
A little extension, Zach continued to ask Lily, "Did the black witch leave the soul dagger to stop the birth of the banshee? Or to ensure that the banshee will continue to be born?"
"How do I know, the two friends Pochquin told you, Yuehua and Baiying, whether the future banshees will continue to be born or become extinct, anyway, the choice should be in the hands of the black witch herself, not Give it to Toledo for nothing, and then give it to the saints of the Holy Lord, the greatest enemy of the witchcraft faith.”
"Yeah, that makes sense."
Zach was inspired.
The black witch's ability to control the continuation of her 'race' is lacking to a certain extent. Haha, it's the same as the enchantress and siren who just lost the last matrilineal race, isn't it~
Please connect to the werewolf prediction given to Logan by the Black Witch above. In it, Sheila is replaced by Ravenchi.
Putting the pieces back together, Zack has figured out why it took Porky so long to convince the Dark Witch in Newton
In fact, Pochi did not convince the Black Witch. It was the Black Witch herself who saw the death of Sheila the Winged Man in the death scene of Logan. It was the black witch herself who realized the similarity between them and those alien orphans from the old era. It's the Black Witch herself, who wants to change.
Once such an analogy was matched, Zach sincerely hoped that the black witches who had gained some control over their own 'race' inheritance could find their own place like the enchantress Riley. Don't be like the siren, going crazy in despair...
Zach decided not to go to Newton to ask the black witch for the soul dagger, which would not be considered a betrayal of his promise to Sissi. Because Zach knows that this time, the friendly relationship between Toledo and the Black Witch will no longer work, and the Black Witch will not give Zach the soul dagger. Zach didn't betray, he knew he couldn't do it.
As for Sissi... Well, regardless of whether she can accept it or not, Zach is in no mood to be led by Sissi, especially after being told by the white cat that Sissi's true purpose is to manipulate the behavior of vampires and complete the new alien Bible!
Does Sissi want to use this incident to reshape the vampire into a lackey of the Holy Lord's faith, trying to steal the black witch's things? Dream on!
