Angel on earth

There is no other vampire in the world as noble as my first ancestor.Arnold smiled unconsciously, even if it is a cursed creature, I have also drank the blood of an angel.Lieyang City is the most holy, well, even the second most holy saint can't do this!

But Mikhail's pure and beautiful face is too confusing, especially when looking through brand-new and clear lenses, it often makes Arnold selectively forget the many achievements of the Sun Knight, making him look like a 16-year-old ignorant Leaning on the young man.

Almost the moment he laughed, Mikhail woke up.

The moonlight casts mottled and flowing tree shadows in the car.Arnold couldn't distinguish between his fine eyelashes and the beating moonlight for a while, and blurted out in shock:

"It turns out that your eyes really shine."

Mikhail blinked in confusion, Arnold had already adjusted his state and said:

"It's still a while before dawn."

Mikhail was surprised and a little offended when he found out that he was lying, and said: "I'm hungry."

"Okay." Arnold spread his hands, "I'm hungry too. But you won't give me blood, and the soldiers don't want to stop early to treat you to dinner."

Mikhail hesitated to speak, opened the curtains and looked out.There were already farmers in the fields and young men playing didgeridoos on the roofs.The residents of Lava Island have dark skin, but they are not as dark as the people of the Red Moon Empire. They seem to be the color of labor and health that has been exposed to the sun all year round.Mikhail turned back to look at the pale and sickly vampire opposite, and lowered the curtain.

"You said you were the only vampire in the Edwards family." Mikhail raised his knuckles on the table and asked absently, "If you are not lying, then who transformed you?"

Arnold raised his eyelids, looked at the wandering nebula in his eyes with two green eyes, one bright and one dark, and said hoarsely: "Don't miss the most important sentence: I said, I am the world's first vampire. "

"But I don't think you are Cain, much less Arnold Calvin Edwards."

Arnold said angrily, "Don't you know it's a fake name?"

"I'm sorry, Mr. Edwards, but you didn't tell me your real name. You—"

"Three hundred is less." Arnold raised his index finger and said seriously, "I'm not yet three hundred. As for the first Edwards vampire you mentioned, Arnold, he helped the church fight the second jihad. The title of our family was obtained from Noren by the church."

Mikhail stared at him for a long time, wondering: "Are you really a vampire?"

"I drank your blood."

Mikhail muttered in a low voice: "Perhaps many people will like the taste of my blood."

Arnold laughed: "That's true. Your blood doesn't smell like blood, it's more like—well, it's hard to say. I haven't read for a long time. Poetry and scriptures are not something common people can afford."

...it doesn't look like it.Mikhail wisely didn't say it, and didn't know where his dissatisfaction came from.But he still felt proud of Arnold's praise for a long time, he couldn't help puffing out his chest, and continued:

"Except for the brief mention of Cain's history in the "Sun God Code", since the time of the Son of God, the earliest records about vampires appeared six years ago in 310. In Wakefield, the domain of the Edwards family, a farmer was killed in the Emerald City. After a few days, he walked out of the castle in the clothes of a lowly knight—"

"Shit!" Arnold immediately yelled, "Because that man didn't die at all! It was my father's most successful treatment case, and I've heard it all since I was a child. The farmer's name was Peter, and he was almost beaten to death because the housekeeper misjudged him for stealing. Ruptured spleen, broken ribs, broken tibia, hemorrhaging liver, broken left eyeball, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah; my father Roberto Edwards and grandpa James Edwards with the purest Edwards in the family I personally rescued him and gave him compensation. Later, Peter became my family's coachman. Besides, the church does more things like resurrecting the dead, right? Every few weeks there are priests here and pastors resurrecting children According to rumors, your Peter will crawl out of the grave by himself!"

"Let me not make judgments on this for now." Mikhail turned his eyes to look at him, "I mean, not only have I received a detailed education about vampires, but I have also faced many vampires in person. It stands to reason , They are bloodthirsty, although they also prefer the blood of girls, but they are not picky eaters; vampires have a low body temperature, like cold and humid environments, and can hardly bear a little sunlight. And you not only like to bask in the sun, but most of the time you will not be attracted by the shining girls Recognition, like now."

"Because I'm the first one, it's always special! The rest of the births and living environments are different, and after the characteristics are stabilized, they will definitely be different from me. The materials that Lieyang City will show you are either new experiments or oral narratives." Arnold lost control of his emotions again, "How many times do you want me to say that?! I am the first, the first vampire, so I am by no means innocent. Others have committed crimes because I saved them, right? But one At first I didn’t know it would become like this, I didn’t even know what I had become, I just wanted to save my friends who were also ruined by the church and fled everywhere, I thought I could hold back!”

Mikhail pursed his lips tightly, and there was a frightening indifference on his face.Arnold said anxiously: "It's always been like this! The church used the excuse of vampires to deal with Edwards, and had to make it real according to folklore; for the same purpose, they hunted down Hardy and Dubois, and they blamed me for revenge. Is it? You turned us into such monsters!"

"You have killed many innocent people."

"Ha! Wasn't we innocent at the beginning? Who pointed the knife at the innocent first? Your Excellency the High Priest, if you look closer, aren't the civilians in the Siegfried Federation innocent? The slaves of the Moon Empire raised their knives at the church garrison, are you on their side or Isabella and Matthew's side, and Jonathan Bianchi?"

"This has nothing to do with Isabella and the others..."

"Okay! You learned this in the church! No matter what, the saints can escape unharmed, leaving the people to kill each other, and in the end you have to stand up and uphold justice—"

"Mr. Edwards!" Mikhail couldn't bear it anymore and said sternly, "Please don't just say slanderous words!"

"Let me tell you the truth, don't you just like me? You feel bad for telling the truth about you?" Arnold let out a "ha", leaned back with his arms folded, and adjusted his new glasses by the way. "You killed James Fox, this is just the beginning, I just ask you, do you have the courage to swing the sword at Bianchi?"

"Jonathan has long since left the Bianchi family." Mikhail sighed, "Arnold, a saint is a child of God the Father and has no earthly family."

"The crate of the Golden Fox is stamped with the seal of the church. Don't tell me that even the church is so purer than Angels that they want to give their family a pardon. That's really fucking unfair. The Edwards family did that. There are so many, only Queen Michelia knows how to be grateful."

"Regarding this matter, I will personally go to see Archbishop Laswaite of Aydin Diocese and ask him to give an explanation." Mikhail insisted.

"... Forget it, forget it, I should have known earlier." Arnold sighed wearily, "You have believed them for so long, what else can you not believe except that you really can't get over it?"

"I believe in the truth."

"Truth is what hurts, and you know that, but you can't bear the real pain, and you have to accept what's acceptable, to show that you're not naive."

"Are you miserable for what Hardy and Dubois did?"

"I can't have a worse day anyway."

"I think the suffering of vampires lies in transformation. As long as they survive, they will have a lifespan as long as the doomsday and superhuman abilities."

"What's the use of living so long? You can't even taste butter, and the world has become a garbage dump! If you really think so, then I will say, you few bishops deserve to die. If you didn't torment us so much , how come there are so many vampires committing crimes and murders today?"

"Difficulties, difficulties, you always have difficulties, but I know that they are all true, I can tell them apart, and I also know that you have never told me a few lies." Mikhail said sadly, "Why do good people How blurred is the boundary with bad guys? Truth and lies can be reversed, and I can't even hate you."

At this moment, Arnold's teeth were sharp and sharp, his clear vision turned on the harsh switch, and his thinking became clear: "You can't hate me because saints are forbidden to have such 'negative' feelings, and I what is the relationship?"

Mikhail looked even more distressed.

"It's not all bad." Seeing his expression, Arnold softened his voice, "After becoming a vampire, I am more sensitive to herbs and other medicines, and blood vessels and organs have clear characteristics in my eyes. Sutures made of my blood don't give people a fever, and it's all..."

As he spoke, he reacted: "Fuck!"

Mikhail wanted to say something, but he shouted: "Shut up!"

Mikhail didn't care about him: "Because you are a righteous man. I thought so on the first day, and it hasn't changed until now. We just have some differences—"

"Many afflictions are for the righteous."[4]

"Arnold—!" Mikhail stared at him helplessly and somewhat angrily, "Are you trying to anger me, or have you really thought I was cursing you for so long?"

"How can you curse people!" Arnold sighed, "Tell me to drink the blood of a stinky man, you can't even learn this."

"Then you are angry with me," concluded Mikhail. "Why?"

Arnold blinked at him.A few seconds later, behind the clear crystal lens, he rolled his eyes clearly.
