Consciousness gradually awakened, and Silas slowly opened his eyes.

The first thing he saw was a table with a clutter of books across from him, and a ray of sunlight shining through the window onto the table, giving Silas the most striking thing: the clock!

April 25, 7:12 a.m......

After staring at the clock's beating stopwatch for a while, Silas came to his senses and felt the restraint on his body for the first time, so he struggled desperately.

With his strength, it should have been easy to break free from the rope on his body, but what he didn't expect was that the rope was strange, and the more he struggled, the tighter it became.

"Don't waste your efforts, there's a spell on it that is designed to imprison demons!"

A voice rang out from the garage, and Nicole yawned and walked in, putting on her glasses, combing her messy hair, and ignoring Silas' gaze, walked to the garage door and pulled the roller shutter door up.

The sun shone in, and Silas couldn't help but twist his head, and Nicole stretched in the sunlight and said, "Ah, the weather is so good! ”

"Who are you? Why am I here? Silas glared at the strange woman and asked, "What about the red-clothed villain?" Did he tie me up? ”

Nicole walked back, pulled a chair in front of Silas and sat back, leaned on the back with her hands on her back and looked at Silas and said, "Little friend, you have a lot of questions, but it's understandable, when I'm your age, I'm also full of curiosity about the world. ”

As she spoke, Nicole pulled out her cigarette, flicked one to her mouth, lit it with her lighter, took a sharp puff, and then exhaled a puff of smoke comfortably.

Silas was attracted by her movements, and his eyes looked at it without blinking, but when Nicole spat out the smoke, he only felt so choked, so he couldn't help but ask, "What are you doing?" ”

"Smoking, don't you know?" Nicole took another sip and said, "Or have you never seen anyone else smoke?" ”

Silas shook his head, he hadn't seen it.

Although during the discussion last night, everyone thought that Silas might be from a world they didn't know, but now Silas didn't even understand such a thing as smoking, which made Nicole feel more and more that her judgment was right, she rolled her eyes and asked Silas, "Do you want to try?" ”

Although Silas was wary of Nicole, children are children after all, and their curiosity is really heavy, and after hearing Nicole's words, the ghost nodded in disgust.

So Nicole didn't talk nonsense, and after pulling out a cigarette again, she lit it, and wanted to stuff it into Silas's mouth.

However, at this moment, a hand suddenly reached out from the side, grabbed the cigarette in Nicole's hand, crumpled it vigorously, and threw it on the ground.

"Teaching a child to smoke? Nicole are you serious!? The person who appeared was Nero, who looked at Nicole with a headache on his face, and always felt that this eldest sister was really difficult to serve.

Nicole shrugged and didn't answer.

And Silas, who was tied to sit in a chair, suddenly shrank his pupils after seeing Nero appear, and struggled again while shouting: "Bastard, it's really you!" What are you tying me up for!? Let go of me! ”

Nero stood in front of Silas, looked at him condescendingly, and said, "It's not impossible to let you go, but this is only on the premise that you promise not to mess around, agree?" ”

Silas hesitated, but finally nodded.

So Nero walked up behind him and untied his hands behind his back, but after untying them, Nero still looked at Silas with a wary expression, for fear that he would suddenly run away.

This is also something that can't be helped, although Silas's origin is unknown, and he seems to have some ulterior motives, but after all, he is just an eight or nine-year-old child, and Dante and Nero and a bunch of adults are not really good at what to do with him, it is impossible to just keep tying him up, right? That's child abuse.

Fortunately, Silas also spoke, and after being let go, he did not resist, he just rubbed his sore wrist, turned his head to look around, and asked Nero, "What about the man in red clothes and white hair?" ”

"Yo, little ghost, the first thing you did when you woke up was to look for me? Then I'm so honored! Dante's voice was heard, and soon appeared in front of Silas, holding a plate with fried eggs and ham, and the food smelled tantalizing.

While talking teasingly, Dante put the plate on the table in front of Silas and said, "Hungry, aren't you?" It's your breakfast ......"

Silas glanced at the food on the plate, which he had never seen before, and although it smelled good, Silas controlled his urge to eat, stared at Dante and said, "You...... I saw you transformed, are you also a half-demon? ”

"Yes, just like you, they're half-demons!" Dante was also very honest, sat down opposite and put his feet on the table, and then pointed to Nero who was holding his hands next to him and said, "And it's not just me, he's also a half-demon!" ”

Nero rolled his eyes, hesitated, and showed Silas his demonic right arm.

"So you don't have to worry too much, Silas!" Dante spread his hands and said in a relaxed tone as much as possible: "We are actually the same kind. ”

Silas finally understood what the familiar feeling he had when he first met Dante, and he couldn't help but say, "You are also the children of the Forbidden Ones, and the demons and humans have ...... Have you been hunted down? ”

As for the identity of this so-called forbidden child, Silas remembered it vividly when he was choked by the superior demon at that time, and he knew that many demons hated him like a forbidden child, so he was very curious if the two people in front of him had suffered the same thing as him.

However, the words spoken by Silas made Dante and Nero look at each other in disdain: "Forbidden son? ”

Dante was indeed hunted by demons when he was a child, but it was a tragedy caused by demons to take revenge on his father, and after that, Dante was often attacked by demons, but he always felt that it was all related to his father.

But now after hearing the words Silas said, Dante realized that maybe his understanding was wrong, so he couldn't help but ask, "Forbidden son?" What does that mean? ”

Silas was stunned: "Don't you know? ”

Both Dante and Nero shook their heads in unison.

Silas looked down at the food on the table, couldn't help but grab it with his hand and eat it, and found that it was quite delicious, so he couldn't care about it so much, and sent it to his mouth left and right, while eating, he also explained: "My father-in-law once told me that demons are very different creatures from humans, so it is difficult to have offspring, but by chance, there is a small chance that offspring will appear, but such a half-demon descendant is not allowed by demons, and demons will covet the talent of half-demons on the one hand, On the one hand, he wants to kill the half-demon and maintain the purity of the demonic bloodline, so he calls the half-demon the forbidden child......"

Dante and Nero looked at each other, to be honest, they had been fighting demons for all these years, although every time they met demons, they were very angry with them, but Dante had long been accustomed to them, and felt that the demon's anger might be related to the fact that they had been hunting demons, but they never thought that there was such a deep reason for this.

"Silas, according to you, you're also hunted by demons?" Dante asked.

"I don't know......" Silas raised his head a little blankly and thought about it, as if except for the time when he met the superior demon and was recognized, the rest of the time, his stepfather protected him very well, so he couldn't say that he had been hunted down by the demon......

Looking at Silas's dazed appearance, Dante also had a little headache, to be honest, although Silas is the same kind as them, it is still a little difficult for children of this age to communicate, because adults may not be able to keep up with his thinking.

At this time, Nicole next to her suddenly asked Silas, "Is it delicious?" Would you like to come a little more? Kyliet's cooking skills are still very good! ”

Silas nodded quickly, it was the first time he had eaten cooked human food, and of course he thought it was delicious.

Nicole smiled and took Silas's plate, turned back to the kitchen, and gave Nero a look as she passed by.

This is the decision made by their group after discussing it last night, because Dante and they attacked Silas, so Silas is hostile to them, but for a child like Silas, blindly being tough can easily arouse his rebellious psychology, and it will outweigh the losses, so Nicole thinks that taking some gentle means and trying to get along with Silas as a friend may be able to have unexpected gains, at least this child looks like he is not deeply involved in the world, and it should be easier to get out of his mouth......

That's why early in the morning, it was Nicole who first came forward, and then Dante and Nero appeared as the same kind, and now combined with Gillieth's superb cooking, it was easy to lower many of Silas's psychological defenses.

Receiving Nicole's eyes, Nero scratched his head and said to Silas, "After eating, go take a shower, you have a smell of gunpowder and blood." ”

Dante also nodded, "That's right, little ghost, since you don't have a place to go now, let's stay here first." ”

As soon as he heard Dante's name, Silas couldn't help but be a little annoyed: "How many times have you said it, don't call me a little ghost!" ”

"Hahaha!" Dante laughed, reached out and rubbed Silas's hair, and walked out of the garage without looking back.
