Chapter 31 What if your grandson wants to be a priest?
Li Zhen looked at Dracula's father and daughter speechlessly, and Dracula's father and daughter also looked at Li Zhen with worried eyes.
"Explain. I remember you only had one son! Li Zhen thought about it and decided to give Dracula a chance to explain.
"I have a son, but that's when I was a piercing man. At that time, in order to protect my subjects, I chose to accept my father's first favor and became a vampire earl. Defeated a strong enemy! But those who were under my protection betrayed me and wanted to attack my son! I can give them hope for life, but I can also give them the despair of death! Dracula thought back to that time, and still gritted his teeth a little.
"My son later succeeded me to the throne, but he is still a mortal. When I came back to life, he was already old. Then I met Mephis's mother, a princess of the Bloodline. We fell in love, and Mephis is the crystallization of our love. We hide our identities and live the lives of ordinary people. Thinking back on the good times of those years, Dracula's eyes were full of softness.
"Unfortunately, good things don't last long! The exorcists somehow learned of our identity and brutally murdered my beloved wife, who had just given birth to Mephis, while I was away! I was so disheartened that I wanted to rush into the Holy See to take revenge on them! But Mephis was young at the time, and I couldn't abandon her. So I started the Elf Hostel, away from humans! ”
Li Zhen asked curiously, "Then why did you leave your castle this time?" Even come to me this angel? ”
"Because of my grandson, Dennis. By chance, Dennis's father, Jonathan, accidentally broke into my castle. Because it was Mephis's birthday, I didn't kill him, I just wanted to send him away. But who knows that this bastard boy has a lot of means! I actually stole my baby's heart! She gave birth to my lovely grandson without telling me! I had no choice but to accept him. Speaking of which, Dracula looked a little indignant.
"This is not the same as the story in the movie~" Li Zhen's eyes flashed with gossip. In the plot of the movie, Jonathan and Mephis are genuinely in love, but Dracula sends Jonathan away. In the end, I compromised for the sake of my daughter's happiness. But think about it, with Dracula's character, if Jonathan hadn't killed someone, he would have lost a life.
"My grandson, who is half a vampire, has yet to awaken. Originally, I didn't care, but the father who gave me my first hug is about to wake up, and if he finds out that his offspring is a human, he will definitely kill my grandson! In order for Dennis to awaken, I thought of the Holy Grail of my clan. Legend has it that the Holy Grail has the ability to purify blood, and I want to use it to awaken Dennis. Dracula explained.
"But the broken cup is now in my hand, and you can only come to my angel for the sake of your grandson's safety, right?" Li Zhen asked rhetorically, but his tone was full of affirmation.
"That's right. I don't want to be your enemy! But I'm not going to lose my grandson! Dracula replied categorically.
Li Zhen thought for a moment and raised the scepter in his hand again. Dracula and his daughter Mephis looked nervously at Li Zhen.
"Don't worry, I just want to test something. It doesn't hurt you guys, just a little bit of pain. Li Zhen gave a reassuring sigh and then pointed his scepter at Mephis. The gem on the scepter suddenly shimmered with pure white.
"Well, you're not lying, Mephis really didn't hurt a single human. Your turn. Li Zhen nodded after receiving the information from the scepter. He aimed his scepter at Dracula. This time, the red, white, and yellow lights on the scepter changed continuously, and finally in Mephis's worried gaze, the white light and the yellow light each accounted for half of it, and the red light only occupied a small part.
Li Zhen saw Mephis's worry and explained, "Don't worry, the red light is formed by the blood of the innocent people your father hurt; The yellow glow represents the enemy that your father killed with revenge; The white glow indicates the good deeds he has done. What a surprise, Dracula, you have done so many good deeds! It's not in your vampire nature. ”
Dracula explains, "When I first became a vampire, I only killed enemies, and then I fell into a deep sleep; When I woke up again, it was already 60 years ago. In addition, when I was in love with Mephis's mother, I never hurt innocent people in order to hide my identity. And now there are a lot of blood bags in the hospital, all these years to raise Mephis, I bought blood bags from the hospital, and occasionally some mortals broke into my castle, and I avoided leaking my news before killing them. ”
Li Zhen waved his hand: "I don't need to explain it so clearly, I'm not one of those old-fashioned people in heaven." As long as you don't touch my bottom line, I don't care if you're an evil creature or not. After speaking, he waved his hand and put away the realm of light. Dracula and Mephis instantly returned to the tavern.
"Sit down first, I'll go get some wine." Li Zhen commanded and walked to the bar.
"Well, the Holy Grail thing?" Dracula rubbed his hands together.
Li Zhen handed him a bottle of beer, opened one himself, took a sip and said, "I can give you the Holy Grail, but I want to meet your grandson and talk to him." Maybe your grandson doesn't want to be a vampire, but rather a priest? ”
"He dares!" Dracula's eyes widened and he swung his fist viciously: "I'll let him know that his ass can be a three-break!" ”
"Daddy!" Mephis glared at Dracula angrily: "This is the time of freedom, and Dennis has the right to decide his own future!" ”
"But, I'm ......" Dracula was about to say something, but Li Zhen waved his hand and interrupted him: "Dracula, your daughter is right. You can't be full of old ideas like those old antiques! Think about it. ”
Dracula took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down: "I need to think about it. Mr. Kyle, we'll take our leave. Sorry to bother you! ”
"Go ahead." Li Zhenmei took a sip of beer and waved goodbye to Dracula's father and daughter casually.
