9 pm
Anyway, the whole morning was wasted, and Zach was not in a hurry, anyway, Louise came back, and Madison hadn't left yet, so he contacted Ford, transferred customers, and in the afternoon, as the owner of Grande, arranged the joint business of the first mill and Grande headquarters.
"I insisted on cremation because my father said that if you want to leave this world, you don't want to leave any residue here. "This is the customer, a very young guy named Eric. And this is quite confusing, what is 'any residue'.
"Insist on going to the Church of the Holy Son. The other party paused, "I just want to persevere." ”
Zach has been watching Grande since he entered him, not because he was bored, but because Eric seemed to be more inclined to look at Grande than planning his father's funeral. And his gaze is always focused on where he shouldn't-
For example, the clearing in the backyard, where there is nothing but Ryan, the Bound Spirit. Like the ceiling of the showroom, again, there is nothing there, except for the newly arrived angel Jimmy.
Also, most of the conversations after entering the office, he avoided eye contact between Zach and Louise, and there was no part worth discussing about cremation at all, focusing on the pre-cremation ritual, didn't he, but he seemed to consciously only communicate with Madison.
Zach listened to the discussion for a while and spoke, "So Madison, the mill needs to be handed over, and the cremation part after the farewell ceremony will be handed over to you." Then he clearly signaled to Madison with his eyes, you can go.
"Louise, you should go and rest too, it's been a hard morning. ”
Louise shrugged and left, leaving a note of the client's request, barely remembering anything, and Eric didn't answer her questions at all.
There were only Eric and Zach in the office, and Zach took his notebook, "Although you insist on having a farewell ceremony in the Church of the Holy Son, whether it is the information Ford gave me or what you just answered, it seems that you have no guests to invite to attend. ”
"I don't have any relatives or friends in my family. Eric didn't look at Zach and replied calmly, "My father came to Barton to recuperate after retirement, and our life is simple and peaceful. ”
"I can imagine that. Zach waved his hand, "There's a lot going on at Barton, and we, who only now know each other, you must be living a very simple and peaceful, perhaps, I should say, low-key life." "What do you mean by Zach?
Eric's head bowed, his voice still calm, "So, vampire, are you willing to hold my father's funeral?" ”
"Aren't we talking about the funeral? Zach shrugged, "At least for mutual respect, you're going to tell me what you are." ”
"I am human. Eric replied quickly.
"I know, but you're not exactly human, are you, a third alien. "Includes wizards, witchers, banshees, Walters, ...... All of these human beings have special powers," to be specific. ”
"My father and I insisted on using the Church of the Holy Son, didn't we, what do you think we are?" asked rhetorically.
"The Witcher. Zach replied.
Eric glanced at Zach and was sure. Continue to keep your head down and avoid your gaze.
Remember the description of the witchers, they thought it was for the sake of the Holy Lord's faith. And crossed the line. As a human being, to carry out the judgment of the devil. He lived for the sake of the faith of the Holy Lord and expelled demons to maintain the stability of the world, but after death, he fell into hell because of the exercise of inhuman powers. The fate of the witcher.
Dissatisfied with this idea, Konstantin researched the method of re-descending the judgment of faith (unsuccessfully, but he developed a method of transcending the soul in the faith of the Holy Lord), left the west, and lived in seclusion in Barton.
The witchers had a special affection for the crucified Son, probably because they thought they were the same as the Son.
"Father Constantine of the Church of the Holy Son, he ......" Zach wanted to ask.
Interrupted, "He didn't know, he heard his father say that Konstantin was forced to leave the west because of a principled feud with all his colleagues. My father is retired and just looking for a quiet place to recuperate. We don't need to intersect. ”
Zach nodded, and then smiled, as a temptation, "Barton is not quiet now. ”
"It doesn't matter, my father is very lucky, he has been very quiet for more than ten years in Barton, he is very old, and in the last year, he is not sober, so it doesn't matter. ”
Although he didn't find anything tentative, Zach was still quite relieved, the other party's intention died naturally, and it was no wonder that he had been calm except for some problems with his attitude.
Can you understand Zack's thoughts, the current Barton can't afford the accidental death of a witcher. Eric's family managed to keep a low profile at Barton for so long, and it was best to keep it that low-key.
"Think of it as my personal curiosity, your father ...... now" This is an automatic pause, anyway, the other party knows what is behind.
"Cerberus had appeared, but it was not needed, the judgment of faith came quickly, and the father left cremation and the request of the Church of the Son, on. Pause, "went down." Shaking his head, "Then the fallen angel Jessica came once, after all, only a demon hunter who is so fanatical in his faith that he crosses the line can have such a quick and clear judgment." But we didn't communicate anything, but she seems. Frowning, "I don't know." It should be respectful of my father's and my position, and I didn't say much. ”
Zach nodded, and suddenly raised an eyebrow, "How old are you?"
Probably thinking that Zach was inexplicable, he frowned and glanced at it, "24, what are you doing." ”
"So when your father came to Barton to recuperate, you were still a child. Zach had a smile on his face.
"So what. ”
"This shows that you are not a witcher, you are just a demon hunter with knowledge and ability, well, ordinary people. ”
Eric was silent for a moment, "I was born very late, and my father became a father when others had already become grandfathers. I guess he loved me too much and he didn't want me to follow the same path as him, so he took me to the farthest east. ”
Zach gave time for the other party to adjust his emotions before smiling again, "Then let's make good arrangements for your father's funeral." Well, the process, you should already know a lot when you were at Ford, let's talk about the next coffin. ”
Eric pursed his lips, probably changing his mood, and finally met Zack's eyes, nodding, "Yes." ”
"Good. Ford mentioned that because it was not a burial after all, the coffin he used for the farewell was ordinary, but Grande was different......"
After Eric really started to communicate, this progress went smoothly. After discussing what Grande could do, they also discussed the arrangements for the Church of the Child, because to be honest, no one attended the funeral, and even if Eric and his neighbors were added to the guest list, there were less than ten people. I am afraid that this will be another deserted funeral held in the Church of the Holy Child after Pierce's funeral.
Zach asked Konstantin a question, as it was unclear if Eric would be willing for another witcher to conduct the ceremony. But Eric didn't seem to have a problem - "It doesn't matter, it's not good to avoid it." I also want to live in peace, and I don't want to offend anyone. ”
When the work was done, Eric asked, "Is that thing in the showroom?" ”
"Yes, his name is Jimmy. "I don't need to explain the past to this Eric in detail.
"I also feel the breath of a fallen angel, in the direction of your warehouse. ”
"The wings of the fallen angels are there. ”
"That groundbinder in your backyard, I feel witchcraft. ”
"That's the son of the wizard Sbella, not very honest, so he was bound by witchcraft to the Soul Grass seed and placed in Grande. ”
"Young men and women chatting over there. "Eric is talking about Matthew and Maya, Maya is fine, Matthew is a little, well, anxious look.
"Oh, that's Maya, the Black Witch who came to Grande to play. Matthew, it's normal to be a little emotionally unstable, you know, the full moon cycle. ”
Even when leaving, "she ......"
"Ink, republican ghost. Just came back from a walk with the shapeshifter. ”
And just like any guest who comes to the funeral home, Eric left with mixed emotions.
Leaving the work to Louise, Zach is ready to leave for the North End to finish what Louise left unfinished in the morning.
Before leaving, "Benjamin. Helplessly, "I know that recently, you found it fun to use the wolf body, but, after all, it is the full moon cycle, how about understanding my nervous mood a little." ”
This is what Eric mentioned earlier, where Maya and Matthew were chatting.
Benjamin is already probably the first alpha ever to break through the limits of the full moon cycle and use the wolf's body at will at other times. It didn't matter before, but the closer he got to the full moon cycle, the more strange Matthew felt next to the alpha wolf, according to his original words, "It's not yet the full moon cycle, and my senses seem to have begun to explode in advance." ”
Maya was helping to pacify, "It is recorded in Salem's books that alpha, which automatically incarnates as a wolf in advance during the full moon cycle, has the effect of improving the ability of the tribe as a whole. Probably because Benjamin can now transform into a wolf body at will, the impact of this ability enhancement has also been extended beyond the full moon cycle. ”
Tonight, when the moon crosses its highest point, the cycle will officially begin, and now Matthew has entered this state in advance, and Zach's so-called 'nervousness' is actually for Matthew.
Benjamin's response to Zach was to give Matthew spice, "I think Matthew can use this." ”
The results are immediate. Same as Benjamin for the first time.
But Zach really didn't know that this was not a good thing, and Benjamin's two personalities were already a little troubled by Grande, taking random commissions and having special thoughts about Fizz's group of otaku. If Matthew comes over again, uh.
But everything is unknown, and Zach doesn't know how to anticipate the future. Forget it, and leave Grande with the information that Louise didn't submit in the morning. Halfway through, I met Alice, who came back from school, and Lola, who came to Grande for the reason of 'coming to learn to drive with Alice'.
Our focus remains on Grandli.
Because Alice is back, and Lola doesn't really teach Alice to drive at all, she drives Little Pink and walks around accompanied by Kyle. It just so happened that Maya had the opportunity to ask the question she had always had.
"That spice, I heard Yuehua talk about it, it was John's doing, right? It's amazing, you can actually transform Alpha at any time, can you tell me about it? "Remember this Maya touching Benjamin for some reason?
Alice didn't know what to say to Maya, "Say it's to inspire the soul to be reborn......"
As for Matthew, who used the spice for the first time, Benjamin was also observing Matthew's changes, starting with a lighter, alpha skin.
Benjamin, under the escort of Maya and Alice, and the phantom people scattered around to observe the path of Lola's car, pecked Matthew on the shoulder in the form of an alpha skin.
Louise wanted to avoid Grande at this time, and when Matthew's body began to be covered with fluff, she went to the church of the Holy Son to discuss the funeral work with the priest.
That's at this time.
A little north of the Grande, a point in the straight line connecting the Grande and Hermann's warehouses. Still a little distance from Grande, two figures disappeared in the shadow of a farmer.
"Are you sure it's Grande?!" Dora frowned in a terrible tone. When she first arrived, she was still in a good mood, because Mokawi was unexpectedly very cooperative with their transfer operation, and it was expected to be busy with the transfer in the afternoon, and it would be completed in two hours, and Mokawi is now honestly staying in the temporarily abandoned Hermann factory.
"I'm sure. Bumi frowned, too, "That's what the female Toredo said, Grande's accounting!"
"There are two alphas in Grande now!you tell me where Toredo is?!" Dora gritted her teeth.
Wait, two Alphas, did Dora count Matthew as well? Oh, don't blame her, only Alpha can use Alpha skins, unless in battle, Alpha passes his own blood.
"Don't you always emphasize not to speculate!" Bumi's face was no better than Dora's, "Maybe Grandry, it's the werewolves fighting!"
"Isn't that good news for us in the fight?!" Dora's face turned grim, "Grandri has Alpha! Now we can see why Alpha's hair is ...... in the woods to the south."
It was quiet.
At the same time, Bumi and Dora have their faces blackened together. The two guys glanced at each other, "Two, wolves!" The breath coming from Grande's side is no longer as simple as an alpha skin, it is two formed wolves! Again, the full moon cycle has not yet begun!
Dora suddenly grabbed Bumi's arm, "Vampire, vampire breath! I feel, faint vampire breath!"
Two Nophies, anthropomorphic breathless.
Be quiet. Short.
"Gone. Vampire's breath, gone!"
"Was, killed??"
"I, I don't know......," Dora shook her head vigorously, "you, what clan do you sense that vampire's breath?!Is it the female Toredo?!" asked very eagerly.
"No, ......no," Bumi replied tremblingly, "the time is too short, and the disappearance is too sudden......"
"We should get out of here!"
Gone.
Back to Grande, Georgina stared gloomily at the two wolves in front of her, "Don't ask me to do this kind of experiment in the future!"
The brown and black wolf spoke in human words, Benjamin's voice, "I can only look for you, your clan talent, you can't feel the suppression of blood, so you won't have a special reaction to werewolves." Do you think Zach and Louise would be willing to help me test this? ”
Georgina tugged at the corners of her mouth, "So, what about the result?"
The yellow-haired wolf blinked, jumped a few times, and wow-woo-woo-woo.
"He said well, even if you are full of vampires, he still doesn't want to attack you. ”
Georgina rolled her eyes and closed the door to the warehouse, "Okay pay!Blood!a bucket!I'm hungry every day!" (To be continued.) )
