Yes.
The bigger the waves, the more expensive the fish!
Risk and reward are always proportional to each other.
There are two paths laid before Hawk.
The first path.
Find the Heaven Dimension, they say it's a misunderstanding, and then he lets it go and becomes a bystander.
But obviously, that's impossible.
As the saying goes.
He was never a saint, and he doesn't allow anyone to probe him and then just say it's a misunderstanding, shake hands, and everyone's all good.
Such a thing will never happen.
Just like how Hawk dealt with Hydra before.
Testing?
If you dare to test, then don't think about using your claws again. If you dare to test today, tomorrow you'll dare to step over boundaries, and the day after, you'll dare to urinate over his head.
Whether it's a misunderstanding or a test from the Heaven Dimension, ultimately, since this war was started by the Heaven Dimension, he decides how it ends.
So...
Hawk leans towards working with Mephisto.
Even though Mephisto's credibility is poor and he's already on his blacklist, he still prefers to team up with Mephisto against the Heaven Dimension.
The reason is simple.
He doesn't understand the Heaven Dimension, but he knows Mephisto well.
Since it's a collaboration, naturally he would choose to work with someone familiar, even if this partner is a demon full of lies, it's better than a stranger who might stab him from behind without saying a word.
Speaking of familiarity.
Hawk recalled when he was a guest at the Hell Tavern, asking about how a dimensional space could support him in expanding his own cosmos, and the mysterious words and expressions Mephisto had at that time.
In the deepest part of the soul, there is the answer I want?
What answer?
With Gwen using his left arm as a pillow, leaning on the bed, Hawk's mind recalled Mephisto's assured expression when he left, confident that once seeing the answer, he would choose to collaborate with him.
At this moment.
Hawk snapped back to reality, lowered his eyes, and smiled softly at Gwen, who slowly opened her eyes after her lashes flickered.
"Awake?"
"Mm."
A gentle smile appeared on Gwen's pretty face, her voice soft.
"How long did I sleep?"
"Three hours, you can sleep a bit more, anyway breakfast time is over."
"No more sleep."
Gwen shook her head, got up from the bed, and wrapped a towel from bed around herself, heading to the bathroom: "Sleeping more will make it hard to sleep at night."
Hawk shrugged: "No worries, at night, we just do it a few more times, and you'll sleep from exhaustion."
Gwen, hearing this, turned back with a charming glance at Hawk, didn't say anything, and walked into the bathroom.
The next second.
Hawk also got up and rushed into the bathroom.
Gwen was slightly startled.
"Why are you coming in?"
"Wash together."
"I… mm!"
An hour later.
Having taken a shower, changed into clean clothes, and looking refreshed, Gwen opened the door and walked out of the room first.
"I'll go down first, you change and come down."
"Okay."
Once again in sage mode, Hawk's calm voice echoed from the room.
Gwen then closed the door and walked towards the staircase.
But when she got to the first floor, she didn't see her grandfather William in the living room.
But the living room had no grandfather, only her cousin, and two other people.
Gwen looked at Caroline, who was sitting on the sofa and hadn't chosen to go home, seemingly waiting for her: "Don't you need to go catch up on sleep?"
Caroline, hearing this, smiled and said: "Cousin, I'm a vampire, vampires don't need to sleep."
Gwen then looked at Elena and Little Black Bonnie, who stood up from the sofa after Caroline did, looking visibly weary.
"Are they the same?"
"They aren't, Bonnie is a witch, Elena..."
"Witch."
Hearing this, Gwen sat on the sofa, looking at Bonnie a few more times.
She wasn't alarmed by Bonnie's skin color.
After all, in the entire family, whether it's the Fox Clan, the Stacy Clan, or even the Phoenix Clan, she is the least discriminatory.
At least on the surface.
My goodness.
I seem to be bearing the non-discriminatory banner for three clans alone.
Gwen's thoughts raced, then she smiled at Bonnie: "I know a witch too, she's a Salem Witch, are you also from Salem?"
Black Witch Bonnie was slightly surprised.
"I'm not."
"Alright."
Gwen smiled again, then looked at Caroline: "Where's grandfather?"
Caroline said: "Mom came over to take grandpa to town for a haircut."
This rhythm suggests that there is something to discuss.
Hearing this, Gwen thought to herself and looked at Caroline.
"What's up?"
"It's about that Klaus."
Caroline, seeing this, grabbed Elena's hand and then explained to Gwen about Elena's situation, including the deal with Ancestor Elijah to find the Moonstone so Ancestor Claus would leave them alone.
Gwen listened intently, occasionally glancing at Elena, and only after Caroline finished did she curiously ask: "What about the vampire?"
Caroline was slightly taken aback.
Elena spoke up: "Stefan was afraid of upsetting you, so he didn't come along."
Gwen smiled and shook her head, then said to Caroline: "Got it, I'll talk to Hawk about it."
