Merlin spent three days in the mysterious house, he has been concerned about the transformation of Elsa.
However, due to the complexity of Elsa’s physical condition, this girl’s transformation and mutation process will take longer than other demon hunters. From the current progress, her transformation speed is tenths of that of Coulson and Gattler. Not at all.
At this rate, Elsa may take a month or more to complete the conversion.
But the good news is that Mrs. Bloodstone’s guess is correct. The cold power in Elsa’s body did not prevent the mutation and catalysis of the body of Miss Bloodstone. On the contrary, in this painful transformation process, that A cold force has been protecting Elsa.
This is a good thing. The consciousness is frozen in the spirit, and the terrible pain associated with the physical change cannot be felt, which can make Elsa's mind hardly transformed by the horrible pain.
Mrs. Bloodstone also lives in a mysterious house. Her arrival is not a bad thing. At least she will help Merlin take care of the two little girls. Ruiwen and Lorna also like Mrs. Bloodstone very much. They call her Aunt Vanessa. Often, after dinner, she will be with Mrs. Bloodstone and listen to her stories.
She is a true demon hunter and has been living for nearly 200 years. The adventure stories she has experienced are all true personal experiences, especially the story of her adventure with Master Ulysses when she was young is also wonderful enough.
Of course, Merlin is not the only one who needs to pay attention in the mysterious house.
Two days ago, Xuan Lan told him another thing. Merlin only knew that there was another guest asleep in the second floor guest room of the Mysterious House.
"Magician" Miss Zatanna Zatara, she used the pages of the Dark Divine Book to trace the traces of her father, but it is likely that she asked what should not be asked, causing her to be stunned by strong willpower.
She didn't wake up until a day ago, but she hasn't been able to recover her mobility and can only be taken care of by others.
"Snapped"
Merlin pushed the door open and walked into the guest room with this lunch. In front of him, Miss Zatana, who was pale to almost bloodless, was leaning on the bedside, holding a magic book in her hand. Look.
This made Merlin feel a little ashamed.
Compared with diligent and talented Zatanna, he has indeed been lax in his attitude towards learning magic this time, of course, this is also because there are too many things happening in this period.
"Mrs. Vanessa made fish soup, and she told me to give you a copy."
Merlin placed the scented lunch on the table at Zatana's hand. He said:
"How are you feeling today? Are you better?"
"I'm recovering, don't worry, Mr. Merlin."
Zatana was nervous when she saw Merlin. She still remembered the request from the Dark God Book. Although it was not a necessary option, the young Miss Magician still had some subconscious resistance when she was in contact with Merlin.
She tried to cover up her inner situation and said to Merlin in a very calm tone:
"I might be able to recover my strength at midnight today, and I will leave by then, you don't need to worry about me."
"Ok."
Merlin nodded, but he didn't feel anything unusual, he said:
"Xuan Lan will send you wherever you want to go, but my advice is, don't act first."
"Ok?"
Picking up the lunch, Zatana, who picked up the spoon, looked at Merlin in confusion. The latter sat in a chair by the bed and said to Miss Magician:
"You must have got some information from the Dark God Book..."
"Well, yes, I got..."
Zatana wanted to tell Merlin about the spirit, but Merlin stopped by waving:
"No, don't tell me, this is your family affair, I have no intention to intervene."
He says:
"I mean, no matter what information you get from that book, about your father, about your bloodline curse, that information must be important to you, but important does not mean you have to act immediately. ."
"Just from your coma, you can see how tricky the opponent you are facing. Under such circumstances, reckless actions are not a good thing."
Merlin says:
"You should wait again, you are still young, there is still a lot of time, and there is still greater potential that has not been discovered. It is not too late to wait until you are as strong as your father, even after surpassing him."
"Of course, if you have any need for help, I will try my best to help."
Merlin joked:
"Just don't let me face the horrible spirit."
After hearing Merlin's persuasion, Zatana was a little indifferent for a while. After a while, this pretty girl who had a kind of pleasant feeling when she was ill responded softly:
"You really are a careful and warm person, Mr. Merlin."
"Your suggestion is very persuasive and I will take it. Actually, I did not plan to rescue my poor father immediately. On the one hand, because I couldn't do it, on the other hand, the paper gave me a warning. "
She took a sip of soup, put down the bowl, and then took the parchment from the book at hand and handed it to Merlin. She said:
"I have got the information I need, and I should give it back to you, Mr. Merlin, this piece of paper is valuable in the magic world. If you can, don’t tell others that you hold it. This will bring you unnecessary trouble."
"Do not."
Merlin shook his head and he said to Zatana:
"At the beginning we said that you held the pages of this book for a month. This is as a reward for taking away the ancestral mystery house. Based on my understanding of this paper, as long as you use it properly, it will give You bring a lot of benefits, about magic, about knowledge, etc."
"Agreement is an agreement, to be carried out according to the agreement."
He says:
"A month later, you will return it to me again."
"Ok."
Seeing Merlin's indifferent refusal, Zatana no longer begged, she put the parchment back in the magic book, and then began to enjoy her lunch quietly.
Merlin took the golden pocket watch from his pocket and looked down at the time. He said to Zatana:
"I'm going to see Elsa's situation so I won't disturb you."
Having finished speaking, he stood up and left.
"Mr. Merlin."
Zatana's voice rang behind Merlin, who turned around and looked at Zatana in doubt:
"Is there anything else?"
"Tonight... Could you please come here tonight?"
Zatana felt her ears were hot, she quickly found a reason, and then stuttered and said:
"About magic, those obscure occult knowledge, I would like to take this opportunity to ask you some questions I encountered."
"At night?"
Merlin frowned.
At night, Ruiwen should have fallen asleep. Without Ruiwen's help, his "Master of Mysticism" is estimated to be dismantled by Zatana after opening. But after thinking about it for a moment, Merlin nodded. He said to Zatana:
"Then at nine o'clock tonight, after dinner, I will come over."
"Ok."
Zatana, who bowed her head to drink soup to cover up her flushed cheeks, responded. After a moment, she heard Merlin push the door away, she sighed, put down the bowl in her hand, and took out the parchment.
Looking at the parchment, she said:
"Are you satisfied now?"
There was no response from the parchment.
This is normal, it is just a piece of paper, and when there is no problem, it is no different from other papers.
Merlin went down the stairs and into the room on the first floor. Mrs. Bloodstone was standing in front of the silver bio-cabin. She looked at her daughter in the bio-cabin. Her face was worried.
"Elsa will be fine, ma'am."
Merlin whispered:
"She is an optimistic and strong person, she will survive it."
"Tapping others' shoulders and telling others everything will be fine is indeed much easier than facing the brutal reality, Mr. Merlin."
Mrs. Bloodstone said coldly:
"But we can't always escape reality, my daughter is undergoing some kind of change, and we don't know whether it is good or bad. For me, it was a blow. After my husband disappeared, I faced it again. The risk of losing my daughter...Maybe I should have taken my heart and taken her back from New York to France."
"She will lose her freedom, but it's better than it is now."
Facing Mrs. Bloodstone's claims, Merlin couldn't refute. He could only stay quietly beside Mrs. Bloodstone, looking at the friends lying in the bio-cabin.
When Elsa walked around her alive, Merlin did not worry about her. This is probably because when Elsa appeared in Merlin’s life a few years ago, she has maintained a stronger position than ordinary people. Image.
She and Merlin have fought vampires together. She has been serving as a mystery advisor to SHIELD and has been performing her duties.
In Merlin's mind, Elsa is a trusted subordinate, a very independent and enough friend to protect herself, and a very optimistic girl who wants to be close.
She will also help Merlin take care of Ruiwen and Lorna, even help Merlin clean up the room, and occasionally start cooking a few odd-tasting meals.
All this seems ordinary, but it wasn't until Elsa suddenly fell down that Merlin realized that she had occupied a very important position in her life.
Apart from Carol, no woman could bring him this familiar feeling.
As for Carol’s memory, it’s more of a man’s persistent impression of the first woman in his life. Compared to the fleeting feelings of Carol, Elsa is more like a moisturizer. Silently, in the passage of time, she has left a special impression that belongs only to her in Merlin's heart.
"I will take care of Elsa."
After a long silence, Merlin suddenly said:
"No matter what kind of person she becomes after she wakes up, I will take care of her."
"These words..."
Mrs. Bloodstone, who was here, sighed with regret:
"You should have said to her earlier. Merlin, I am not angry because my daughter is exposed to these dangers. There is always danger in the life of the demon hunter. What I really feel dissatisfied is that you treat my daughter to you The effort is taken for granted..."
She looked back at Merlin with a stern look in her eyes:
"I heard Ruiwen say that you have a past that you can't escape...I can understand that for someone like you, your past will never be simple, and I don't force you to be with my daughter. This kind of thing is not a necessity for a demon hunter who can live for hundreds of years, but I hope... no matter what you think, no matter what you plan to do, you should give Elsa an explanation."
"Ok."
Merlin nodded.
"She hasn't had many friends since she was a child."
Mrs. Bloodstone looked back at her daughter. She said:
"After hearing your stories from the two girls, I was a little surprised. In my memory, my daughter has never been so intimate with another man... Alas, as a result, one of you did not say, the other also Don't ask, just keep dragging, you young people, really..."
Merlin is a little embarrassed. He is not a person who likes to discuss his private life with others.
He could only keep silent, listening to Mrs. Bloodstone's nagging.
After a few minutes, Mrs. Bloodstone moved her shoulders and arms. She said to Merlin:
"I'm going back to the manor, my precious flowers will wither without care, my friends are waiting for me to watch the opera together... I have the life, this stupid girl will leave it to you."
Pointing to the two swords beside her, she said to Merlin:
"I will take away the steel sword. After all, I am a demon hunter. I have a sword at hand. I leave the silver sword to my daughter. After she wakes up, you give her the sword for me."
"That sword was handed over to me by her grandfather on the wedding day of Ulysses and me. That sword is an ancient sword that has been inherited for nearly a thousand years. It is called'Aijiweier' and is said to have some relationship with Master White Wolf. , Is a symbolic weapon, let Elsa use it."
"Well, I will do well."
Merlin made a promise to Mrs. Bloodstone, who looked at Meilin with the same gaze as her mother-in-law, which put Merlin under great pressure.
After sending away Mrs. Bloodstone, Merlin was truly relieved.
When he turned around, he saw an indifferent Ruiwen sitting on the sofa in the mysterious room, holding a handkerchief and wiping a war knife that was taller than her own. Bloody smell.
"What is this? Where did you find it?"
Merlin walked over to his sister. He asked curiously, Rui Wen didn't look at him, wiping his weapon again, and said:
"This was given to me by Vanessa, and she likes me, just like Elsa."
"Why would she give you a knife?"
Merlin says:
"It's not like a gift for a child."
"It's called Alice."
Ruiwen flicked the sword blade with her finger. She said:
"Once held by a powerful half-demon, this knife has its own consciousness, it will help its master in battle. It suits me...it will follow me into hell! Vanessa told me , I need such a weapon to win my freedom."
"Ok."
Merlin glanced at the blood beating on the blade, he said:
"One more thing, Zatana invited me to her tonight, she asked me some occult knowledge..."
Before Merlin's words were finished, the sharp blade rested on his neck, and Rui Wen stared blankly at him, saying:
"I don't like Zatana, I prefer Elsa..."
"Hey, be careful."
Merlin pointed his finger at Alice's strangely buzzing blade and pushed the bloodthirsty blade away from his neck. He said:
"Don't think about it, it's just a discussion of pure magical knowledge. I need your help, Ruiwen, you don't want me to show it, right?"
"Okay, I will help you."
Ruiwen had some difficulty withdrawing the sword with one hand. She said:
"But I will stare at you, Merlin! You have made a promise to Elsa..."
"I don't want my brother to be a merciless scumbag!"
"The world of adults is complicated, Ruiwen."
Merlin sighed. He reached out and touched Ruiwen's head. He said:
"Especially things like feelings can't be forced... Your intervention will make things very troublesome. In short, everything will wait until Elsa wakes up, okay?"
Ruiwen stared at Merlin. After a while, her eyes turned down, she said:
"Your woman relationship is really good and abnormal, but Elsa is a good person."
"You better converge a little bit. If you dare to hurt her, I will cut it myself...you know."
