demon godfather

"Louisa took the child back to the Spiral Tower. She was already very weak at the time, and the shock wave when the magic mirror split nearly killed her. She must have sustained it for so long because of her love for the child. She finally failed Survive. As for the child she brought back," Paul stared at Dominic, "he has been in a deep sleep. It may not be appropriate to say 'sleep', because he is not 'asleep' in the ordinary sense, his body There is no soul at all. When the mirror split the baby's body, it didn't split the soul with it, and Dominique Montale's soul still resides in another body, your father's and the baby's body that the demon possessed. "

Paul paused, and said, "That's who you used to be."

Dominic was dumbfounded and didn't know what to say for a while.

"Although the baby Luisa brought back has no soul, it is in good health. The doctor uses various medical devices to maintain his life, injects him with nutrients or feeds him food. The baby's body grows gradually and slowly becomes Adults. So the reason why you appeared in the Spiral Tower is also obvious. When one of your bodies dies, your soul will naturally return to the other body."

Dominic felt dizzy as he held on to the banister. "It's impossible," he said, "Even if you provide life-support equipment, this body can't...grow into this shape. Ordinary people's muscles will atrophy if they lie in bed for too long, let alone..."

"That's right, that's right," Paul said repeatedly, "Your body originally had atrophied muscles and fragile bones, perhaps even worse than an old man. So Sister Rebecca retrieved your ashes from the funeral home—according to the witch hunt Human habit, your previous body has been cremated. She repaired your current body with the ashes, making it strong and healthy, otherwise even if your soul enters this body, you will not be able to move freely, even the bed Can't come down."

"Wait... wait a minute, Sister!" Dominique cried. "Sister Rebecca! She also knows the mirror image magic! She used that magic to destroy the black ship..."

"That magic was learned by Louisa from her husband, and later taught to Rebecca."

Yes, the nun once said that she learned the magic of mirror images from a sister in the order, and that sister has long since passed away.It was then that Dominique realized that the person she was talking about was Louisa, his mother.

"So the nun knew my mother, and she knew me," Dominique recalled when he and the nun first met. "She recognized me, and she asked me if my surname was Montale." He grabbed Paul's sleeve, "Could it be that your Demon Hunter Association planned all of this? Was my death deliberately arranged by you, with the purpose of letting my soul enter the body you controlled?"

"That's not the case, Dominique Montale." Paul brushed his hand away lightly, "Even if we have supernatural abilities, we can't control the Apocalypse Knight. We really wanted to control you, because you are One of the keys to summoning the coming of Armageddon, but murder was never on our to-do list. When you died 'accidentally', I made the impromptu decision to have Sister Rebecca retrieve your ashes and restore that body .If you can die and come back to life, that would be the best result."

They went down the spiral staircase, and the lower floor was the hospital, but it didn't look like there were too many patients, and the whole floor was quiet, with nurses pushing trolleys passing the corridor from time to time.In the nurse's station, a middle-aged woman dressed as a head nurse was reading a newspaper. When she saw Paul, she quickly closed the newspaper.

"Nurse, can you find a suitable dress for our guest?" Paul patted Dominic on the shoulder.

The head nurse looked the young man up and down, "Yes, there should be something suitable for him."

Dominique found that there was a telephone in the nurse's station. Although he didn't know if it could make outside calls, he still asked with a glimmer of hope, "Can I make a call?"

"Who do you want to call?" Paul asked gently.

"My family, my godfather and..."

"They're not your family," Paul said. "That demon adopted you just to use you."

"Abadon said the same thing, but I don't believe it, you all don't understand, the godfather is very good to me, I don't believe he is that kind of person!"

"He's not a 'human' at all, Dominic." Paul said earnestly, "If the devil wants to deceive you, you can't find his flaws at all. They are all experts at lying, no matter how clever a fraudster is among human beings. It's not as good as a hair of theirs. Even if you are sold by him, I'm afraid you will happily count the money for him."

"But……"

"If he was serious about you, why did he hide about your parents?" Paul asked. "Did he ever tell you about the black baptism? He said you were the key to summon Armageddon. The sacrificial lamb? How many years has he been with you? 11 years? But do you know how long he has been in the world? Do you know how long he has planned all this? Why do you wishful thinking that the devil hides you and raises you , for your own good?"

Paul took a step forward, and Dominic backed away in horror, hitting the wooden platform of the nurses' station with his back.

"I'm stupid, I can't tell if others are lying to me." Dominic lowered his head, not daring to look into Paul's piercing eyes. "Of course I can't tell whether you are lying to me."

"Why would you rather trust a lying demon than trust your fellow man against an evil witcher? Am I going to kill you?"

"Then why don't you let me get in touch with the outside world? At least let me get in touch with Chris! He's one of you, isn't he? He's not in danger, just let me call him!"

Paul pondered, "Christian Morrison is missing."

"What?" Dominic panicked, "Didn't he be with me when the shelter caught fire? He should be alive!"

"He was alive, the firefighters got him out, he suffered minor injuries, nothing serious. But after your body was taken away, he left, he was seen at the station, but disappeared later. None. I'm not sure whether he took the initiative to hide his tracks, or was kidnapped by others. Maybe the former is more likely. He is an excellent demon hunter with a strong anti-tracking awareness. Now we can't contact him .”

"This, this is impossible," Dominic's voice changed in surprise. "It doesn't make sense at all! It's impossible for Chris to leave without saying goodbye. Why does he have to hide his whereabouts?"

"I don't know. Maybe he's running away from something. Maybe he's hung out with the demons for too long and has fallen over to their side."

Dominique grabs Paul by the collar.The president of the Demon Hunters Association did not expect his reaction to be so violent, and he was not prepared at all.

"I don't like to hear that!" Dominic growled in a low voice, "You can say something wrong about me, but you can't say that about Chris! You don't know anything, you don't know what kind of person Chris is. !Even if your entire association becomes an evil minion, Chris won't!"

He pushed Paul away angrily: "I want to get out of this ghost place!"

"You're not allowed to go anywhere," said Paul coldly.

"I'm a normal adult, I can go wherever I want, do you still want to imprison me?"

Paul stared at him annoyedly: "I originally wanted to treat each other with courtesy and enjoy the guests and hosts, but you forced me to do so."

He grabs Dominique's left hand and the head nurse approaches from the other side and grabs his right hand.The two of them pushed him to the ground together.Dominique's face was pressed against the hard marble floor, his hands were cut behind his back.Forget it Paul, he didn't expect the head nurse to look short and fat, but she has so much strength.

The head nurse called several names and summoned several other nurses.They fetched a needle and medicine, and gave Dominic an injection in the neck.As the cold medicine was injected into the blood vessels, Dominic no longer struggled, he was still breathing, his eyes were rounded, but he quickly calmed down, like a restless little animal being soothed.

"You... what did you inject me with?"

The head nurse glanced at the syringe: "It's just an ordinary sedative, what, are you allergic to it?"

"... a little bit." Dominic said seriously.

In the next second, he disappeared in full view.
