11 The vampires of the Eren family
Zach was in the office of Allen's funeral home and watched as Mr. Allen put down the phone with a blank face. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
It was his son Chris's phone call, who specially called back to inform him that he was out with his friends today, and let him not worry if he came back late.
The phone wasn't long, and Alan didn't say anything more than three words - "Yes." Oh. Got it. ā
At the end of the call, Zach kept looking at Allen like this, quiet.
Tell me about the situation in this office. It's about the size of Grande's office, with a desk, and a bookshelf that I don't know if it's a window front, or if it's really okay like Zack, and there are bottles on the shelves that are just as convenient as Grande's for indulging in alcoholism...... Ignore this and continue with the state of the office.
There is the same long table as Grandrie, on the opposite side of the desk.
Allen, of course, sat behind his desk. So, is Zach sitting across from him? Host, guest, yes, this should be the structure.
But no. Zach was sitting at that table, not alone, but also the group of eight. Alan, here, the owner of Allen's funeral home, is alone and excluded, completely unable to join the deliberations of the 9 vampires of the Demon Feast (including Zack), and can only be the guy behind the desk.
If it weren't for the ringing of the phone that interrupted the 'friendly' exchange between the nine people, Zach wouldn't have looked in his direction right now.
Can you make up this subtle scene?
It was so quiet that Allen's gaze began to drift unconsciously......
Zach spoke, "You don't need to stay here, Alan. ā
Zach is really okay to say this kind of thing in someone's house. Mr. Allen, let's at least have a little idea of this guy's personality. Is Alan a good stubble? Not at all, he's a murderer, a vicious competitor to business, a despicable mercenary, and a jealous villain. In the end, he walked step by step towards the end of his life in Grande holding a gun at Zach.
Therefore, it should probably be predicted that he will immediately respond fiercely to Zach's rude words.
But. It is a must. The Mr. Allen we know is still a human being, and the current Mr. Allen is not. It's something that goes after the end of life. Remember, Eli said that he turned Zack's killer into a vampire and was going to put him through hell. Of course, we know that this hell is a metaphor, but we may not be able to imagine the hell that Eli can create. So much so, despite knowing Allen as a person, we probably don't know this allen vampire who has gone through hell in the metaphor.
So, don't be surprised by what you see below.
Alan's wandering gaze froze, and the corner of the ceiling was flat, "Where am I going?" I can't get out, and if I do, I'll be burned to death. "The sun hasn't turned into moonlight yet, it's only afternoon," is it meaningful to stay in a different room, I can still hear what you say." ā
Zach nodded, "True, but aren't you bored, just listen here and we might as well find something to do." ā
Alan continued to look at the ceiling for a while before standing up and walking out silently.
Zach pursed the corners of his lips and withdrew his gaze, glancing at the group of eight, "I don't think I need to remind you, you all know to watch him, don't let him kill himself." ā
Did Alan just say that he could hear it no matter where he went? But Zach doesn't seem to remember, which of you is going to remind him.
No one answered, only Lou Tsmich Lesenbra nodded earnestly.
The inexplicable silence only lasted for a moment, and it was Nainard who spoke, "We understand the reason, but ......"
But none of them came out, and Zach waved his hand, "Do you really understand? Just now, Hamilton." Glancing at Hamilton, he didn't bother to stop and retract, "Still protesting my decision to put you here." ā
"I'm not protesting!" Hamilton was slightly gloomy and lasted for a while, "I'm expressing my feelings! This is not what you advocate the most, everyone should have their own feelings!" Mockery and retort said together, "Patton's atmosphere! The core of maintaining peace between the forces of Patton today! Everyone, everyone, all, should, have, self, feel!"
This matter is a bit 'wide', and in terms of coverage, it is not easy to describe. But you can understand why there are so many twists and turns in Barton, and the city is still developing steadily, or in a good direction. It's that every guy in this city whose name we know has his own ideas. And these guys with names don't think, 'I'm going to live in a bad city,' so everybody wants 'good,' so the city is 'good.'"
Zach smiled at the corners of his mouth, he told Hamilton to have his own feelings, it wasn't that Zack was nervous about wanting this Lesenbra to be good, but it was simply reminding him what was good for Barton for the Magic Feast.
One of them is definitely not to make trouble for the saint Sissi. That's why the group of eight is here. It seemed that only Nainard understood, and Zach motioned to Nainad, "You can explain." ā
A hint of irritation flashed in Nainard's eyes, he didn't finish his words, he had real concerns to discuss with Zack, and now he had to explain to Hamilton, uh, "Hamilton, you can feel free to express your feelings, but don't forget that you're our captain, and you're Lesenbra." "Nainard is a good talker, "We've missed an opportunity to change the Saints' view of the Feast......"
Wait a minute, do you want to explain this? Previously, we described it from Sissi's point of view.
When Zach came up with the idea of using 'Colt' to make Pappa play a political game between Midnight and the Feast to delay the two sides from making a move on Eli Torredo, didn't Sissi come to Grande and complain. Her plan to steal Eren back from Eli was disrupted by this delay, and she didn't want to go to the Demon Banquet and ask for something because of a personal matter that was clearly a weakness for herself (she was telling all the aliens, including the Demon Banquet, Chris and Allen's funeral home, that is, the weakness of her saints, for the sake of her boyfriend instead of trying to save a funeral owner).
If you look at this matter from the perspective of the Demon Feast, how will you look at it? It's simple, Sissi hurriedly didn't want to find the Demon Banquet Gang. Whatever the reason was, Sissi just didn't look for it. Just as this young saint once would rather take Gangaro around the world, start a violent social group, wage war against the demons of the world, and wander all the way to the small underworld of Barton, rather than run to the Demon Banquet, which still maintains the goal of the Holy Lord four centuries ago, to ask for help.
Do you understand?
Nainard continued, "We can't afford to miss the opportunity again to let the Saints, uh, ignore us. ā
"So we're here looking at a suicidal outcast vampire?!" Hamilton glared at Nainard.
Zach raised an eyebrow, "Abandonment?
Nainard was self-conscious and gave way to this opportunity to speak.
Hamilton didn't know if he was grateful or not, and explained irritably, "The descendants of Eli, we used to use 'Toredo' to refer to them, and in order to brainwash the outside world, we also passed on the title of 'Demon Banquet Toredo'. ā
Zach nodded, understandably, replacing himself. The real surname of the Eli clan never mattered.
"Now that we have a real Torrey, apparently his original name is already a burden, so change it. ā
How could Zach have an opinion, nodding, "It's convenient, abandoned, catchy." ā
"You don't have to be proud of anything here...... Hamilton probably didn't hold back for a while, but he didn't regret it much, his face flashed irritability, and then he just pinched off the words behind him, and returned to the topic, "We don't need to stammer saints about this meaningless thing, hmph, how long can the love between boys and girls last." If I had to decide, I wouldn't care if Eren lived or died. The last time she arranged a republican passage for Taylor (who had long since left Patton), she was a saint who came to her. "Hamilton really has her own ideas-" It has been proven that as long as it is something that the saints really care about, she will take the initiative to come to our side! So our focus should be on the West End! Yuri! Fisher! and even ......" flipped through the documents in front of him, hey, as I said before, these nine people are on the agenda, turn over the information or something, don't make a fuss, I still remember that in the morning Oz on the phone in the morning, it was said that Hamilton had something to report, "Quest came out recently." Republican trade is what we should focus on!"
Zach gave a bored look after listening, "You think we should focus on trade with the Republic, okay." So what are we going to do? To control the Fisher's ship to run more towards the Republic, to control the Liszt business circle, which is now under Yuri's name, to develop the high-end market of the Republic, and to replace all the purchase orders of the Quest supermarket with the high-quality and low-cost goods of the Republic?" Zach was already expressing his opinion, so his expression should be as deliberate as he was, and mockery was the main idea, "Well, then let's do it...... Wait a minute, Hamilton, aren't these families doing these things? What are we, well, going to do?"
Hamilton's face froze. Looking at the information in front of me, I feel like an idiot.
Zach shook his head, too lazy to pay attention, "If you can understand, you can understand, if you can't understand, forget it." Either way, don't forget, this is your punishment for not stopping Eli...... Oh no, hehe, the punishment of the outcasts threatening my life. Bear. ā
Except for Nainard and Lu, everyone turned their heads away, lest Zack's malicious expressions be seen. Can you find a more typical one than this?
Lou didn't say anything, his eyes were always on Zack, blind.
Nainard was down to business, and he hadn't finished talking about it before, "I'm still a little worried about Alan, what if Papa was going to do something to Eren at Midnight? What can we do?" The Holy Lord is gone, all the angels are trapped in the Republic, no one knows why, is Papa Midnight the reason? We don't know! Papa Midnight is Barton's biggest uncertainty, and now Alan is an outcast, we can stop him from committing suicide, but we can't stop Papa Midnight. ā
"I'm glad you asked. Zach laughed, "Actually, I've figured out how to fix it. ā
"What is it?"
"Do you want a descendant?
Hamilton, "No!" and then Tsmich and Refrau, who joined in one after another - I know, a couple of guys who didn't have a sense of existence, "No!"
"You guys......" Zack's face was surprised, really, I don't know, "What is the situation, do you need to reflect so much?"
Or Hamiltonian, "We're here on a mission! Not to make descendants! That's a question of principle......
"Your mission has failed. Now under punishment. Zach interrupted quickly, probably understanding what Hamilton meant, "But I really miss this, well, how do you say it, the rules?
Based on the fact that everyone except Lu bowed his head, Zach himself replied, "This rule was established during the colonial period, when the thirteen clans were in order to defend each other, and some clans took advantage of the invasion of new territories to inherit new forces and break the balance of power of the thirteen clans themselves. ā
History, it's always like this...... Simply.
Zach smiled, "I can't believe the Demon Banquet has kept this old rule...... Oh, no, it should be specially re-established for Barton, hehe, after all, Barton is a new territory for the Demon Banquet, right, the new descendants can establish everything new in the new territory (emphasis point, will be used later)~ No matter what the original vampire forces here are, the balance within the Demon Banquet must at least be maintained. So, hehe, you, the eight of you, can't make descendants here, am I right?"
"That's right. "Do you dare to believe it, it was Lu who answered, and he was stunned and answered.
Zach was a little speechless, looked at Lu and nodded, if only he could force Hamilton or Nainard to admit it, forget it, "But as I said, your mission is over, and I have the right to dispose of you and make you cease to exist~" smiled, "But how can I bear it, I'm so familiar~"
"Do we want to thank you!" vicious, from Hamilton.
"Not really, but to make you useful is the right way. Zach looked sideways and was blocked by the wall, but Zach just knew, and Alan was listening silently in that direction, "I can do it myself, but." Zach looked so helpless, "I can't be distracted in the matter of descendants now." You all know my situation, Charlie, right, the situation was already troublesome, and now, there is more ...... "Zach stopped talking and stopped here.
At the table, eyes quickly exchanged in front of Zack. I couldn't help but be, uh, Lu, "Zachary Toledo, do you have any troubles? What can I do!"
Zach began to think that this Lou was a burden, but there was nothing he could do now, "I made a new offspring, Cyrus, yes, the husband of the Morkawi descendant, Brill. Don't put on the act of me dying, I know, it's not an accident, and I don't want to. It's happened, and I have no choice but to face it. Looking at Hamilton, who had already begun to avoid Zack's gaze, "Do you have any suggestions, do I need to kill this new descendant, make Brill a widow, and then find a way to appease Mokawi?"
Hamilton was already pointing the back of his head at Zach.
Zach shook his head in annoyance and began to turn to another person, Nainad.
As soon as his eyes met, "Then I'll come!" Nainard looked resolute, as if he had thought about countless things in an instant, and his gaze briefly forced back Hamilton, "Unless you have a better way! This is the only way! And only I can! Whether it is to help Toledo or to help the saints, only the blood of Cappadocia can!"
"You're going against the principles we came here on!" Hamilton said.
Zach had leaned back to hand the stage to the two men. Luckily, things went as expected.
"And I'm following the attributes of the Cappadocia clan at the Feast!" The insulted low, Nainard stared at Hamilton, "Nobody cares about Cappadocia!Cappadocia is a collection of abandoned vampires!Don't care, don't bother!Hamilton, are you willing to take this job, you know that this is the only way to keep Papa from touching the father of the saint's little boyfriend at midnight, and you also know that this is also the only way to stabilize Mokawi!
In these words, Nainard made a small move, that is, he glanced at the two Tsmishi, who were really about to replace Cappadocia, the most unbearable in the Demon Feast, as the people of the lowest clan.
Realize what Zach is doing? Yes, he used the simplicity of history to remind Nainard, if you want Cappadocia's future to rise, okay, then take the initiative to move forward, gag other people's mouths, and then seize the opportunity.
Ha, as for how to gag other people's mouths, do you think that the current Hamilton can debunk Nainard in front of the two Tsmitch, Cappadocia will no longer be so unbearable, and the new unbearable will be Tsmish?
He couldn't. How many times have I stressed it, Hamiltonian, just maintain the status quo.
