[One Piece]Nix likes idiots

The red-haired girl named Nix had similar facial features to the photos he had seen in Red-haired shop. Except that her age didn't seem to match, she should be the long-lost sister that Red-haired mentioned.

And this time I came here specifically to look for him, probably because I wanted to find the red-haired guy.

Mihawk brought two portions of prepared spaghetti to the restaurant.

"Eat dinner first, and talk about it later."

Nix: "...Okay, thank you."

Before the noodles entered her mouth, Nyx was still thinking about how to compliment Hawkeye's cooking skills without leaving any trace.

But after she took the first bite, she just remembered to silently speed up her eating.

I really want to stay here and ask Hawkeye how to cook, so that her cooking magic can become more refined.

No, no, let’s find Shanks first.

"thanks for treatment."

After finishing dinner, Nix planned to take over the cleaning work, but...

"Just sit here."

There was neither a request nor an order in Mihawk's tone, just a statement. But coupled with his casual glance...

Ni·is addicted to sucking hawks and can't extricate herself·Kesi: "...Okay."

To be honest, Nyx had almost no experience getting along with an older male with Mihawk's personality.

In general, the older men that Nicks has come into contact with so far can be roughly divided into three categories.

The first category is men, headed by her biological father, who have malicious intentions towards her. To deal with this type of man, all Nyx needs to do is knock him down, use him, or ignore him.

The second category, represented by Roger, is a group of impulsive, stupid adults who go their own way. He treats her as a junior, but he doesn't have the maturity and majesty of an elder, so he likes to tease her every day. The fools took it upon themselves to show kindness to her, and accepted her care without any courtesy. In the process of getting along with them, Nyx just needs to learn to ignore their cries and howls.

The third category is the elders who have an interest-exchange relationship with her, like the three teachers who taught her magic. Nyx learned magic from her teachers. After learning the housework magic, she was responsible for taking care of all the chores of life - including washing, cooking, cleaning the house, and organizing books and various materials. She paid for her labor as tuition and received knowledge in return.

Both Rayleigh and Garp can be classified into the second category, while Kurokas belongs to the third category.

Nyx's original positioning of Mihawk was also in the third category. For this reason, she inquired about Mihawk's preferences and prepared corresponding rewards.

But ever since she started talking to Mihawk, she seems to have been unilaterally taken care of by Mihawk?

Does Mihawk belong to the second category? But he doesn't seem like the kind of idiot who would be nice to others for no reason.

Nix's impression of older men was distorted by Roger and others. Although books had told her that there were "serious, mature, stable and reliable" older men, the young Nyx once thought they were imaginary creatures.

After getting to know the teachers, although Nyx's understanding of the elders became slightly normal, her way of thinking began to follow the principle of equivalent exchange, and she still felt that adults who were nice to her for no reason were fools.

But since Mihawk is Shanks's peer, maybe he should be classified as her peer?

Nix felt the confusion and inconvenience caused by the chaotic timeline.

Forget it, although the starting direction is a bit strange, let's try to get back on track.

Nix took out the red wine she had prepared and trotted to the kitchen. There, Mihawk had just finished cleaning up after the meal.

"Mr. Joracol." Nyx stood at the door of the kitchen.

"What's wrong?" Mihawk was wiping his hands. He turned his head and unexpectedly saw Nyx holding a bottle of red wine in her hand.

Isn't that the wine hidden in his wine cellar, brought here by the red-haired girl herself?

Then I heard Nicks say: "I have prepared red wine. If you don't mind, I would like to treat you to a taste."

"...I'll get the wine glass."

There is no need to refuse the wine delivered to your door.

Mihawk took out two goblets from the glass cabinet and returned to the restaurant with Nyx.

Nyx poured a third of the wine into Mihawk's glass: "I hope you like the taste."

"Aren't you going to drink?"

Mihawk watched Nyx put the red wine bottle down gently, obviously not planning to pour wine into her own glass.

"Sorry, I don't drink." Nyx took out another glass bottle filled with dark red liquid, "Can I use this instead?"

She added: "It looks similar, but it's juice."

Mihawk didn't like to force others to drink, so he naturally wouldn't have any objections. He just asked casually.

With permission, Nyx poured juice disguised as red wine into her glass.

She took the lead in raising her glass: "Thank you for the hospitality just now."

Mihawk took a sip of the red wine in the glass and said, "Your red wine is not bad either."

Nix placed another unopened bottle of red wine on the dining table: "That's great, please accept this bottle as well. Just consider it my apology for visiting in such a hurry."

"Red-haired girl," Mihawk put the goblet back on the table slowly and decided to make his words clear, "you don't have to be so reserved and polite."

"What does Mr. Jolacol mean...?"

Nyx blinked blankly.

"Just call me Mihawk." Mihawk pondered for a while, "I will accept the wine. I will take you to find Hong tomorrow..." He glanced at the girl in front of him who also had red hair, "Yes. I'll take you to find Shanks."

"Hey...?" Nyx was really surprised, "Will you take me to Shanks?"

What's going on? She hasn't said anything yet?

Does Mihawk also have skills like mind reading? Not surprising? After all, it’s the eyes of an eagle?

Mihawk couldn't read minds, but the expression on Nyx's face was easy to guess, so he explained a little more: "I once saw a photo at Shanks' place. It is said that it was of him and his sister. Take a group photo...You must be his sister, aren't you here just to find him?"

Who's pictured with whom? Who is whose sister?

"Did you just say that I am Shanks' sister?" Nyx confirmed carefully.

Now it was Mihawk's turn to begin to doubt his proud judgment: "It seems that I recognized the wrong person?"

"Is this how Shanks introduced you to me...the girl in the photo?"

If it was a group photo, Nix would certainly know which photo it was.

The only photo of her and Shanks together.

Nyx's mood improved a little, and she quickly hardened her fist because of Mihawk's nod.

Calm down, Nyx.

She couldn't miss this opportunity. It's rare that Mihawk recognized her and was willing to take her to Shanks...

Nyx kept comforting herself in her heart. After all, the way she looks now, it's not convincing to others that she is Shanks' sister.

"I am indeed Shanks's..." Nyx gritted her teeth for a long time and changed to a word that made her feel better, "His brother."

Wait for her! Dirty brother! Didn't we all agree back then that she was my sister?

But the corners of Nyx's mouth kept rising with joy and anticipation.

"Mihawk, please." Nyx requested seriously, "I want to see him."

"When you get in front of Shanks, you will know whether what I just said is the truth." Nyx knew that what she had just done would more or less arouse Mihawk's suspicion and vigilance. "If I lied to you, then If you want to kill or cut into pieces, I will not resist."

"Okay." Mihawk agreed.

Although she didn't look like she was lying, she probably wouldn't be relieved if she didn't agree like this.

"There are many empty rooms in the castle. You can find one to live in." Mihawk reminded, "There are very dangerous creatures outside the castle. If nothing happens, try not to go out."

"Okay." Nyx agreed.

Although she took a quick look at them on the way here, she felt that the baboons were still within the range that she could handle. But she was leaving to meet Shanks tomorrow, and she wanted to conserve her energy.

Save it for tomorrow to beat up the rebellious younger brother who wants to become an older brother.

-

Nyx didn't have much requirements for where to live. Mihawk asked her to find a room at random, so she directly found an empty room closest to the restaurant.

Although it was an empty room that no one was occupying, it could be seen that it had been cleaned well.

Mihawk is the only one who lives in this castle...Did he do all this?

He doesn't have convenient cleaning magic like himself.

Nyx couldn't help but be in awe of Mihawk.

Anyway, it was just a temporary stay for one night, so Nyx just took out the quilt and simply made a bed, even if it was tidied up.

Lying on the bed, Nix still had an unreal feeling.

It went so smoothly... Mihawk is such a good person, he agreed to him so easily.

Will we finally see him tomorrow?

Nyx put her arms over her eyes.

For her, nearly ten years have passed. For Shanks, this time is even longer.

But they haven't forgotten each other yet.

So happy.

Black mist mixed with silvery white emerged from Nyx's body, condensed into the entity of Nia, and then gently rubbed her face.

"Nia, you are already a mature Nia." Nyx hugged Nia sideways, "Don't hurt Shanks like before."

Nia bit her finger.

Nyx only felt a sharper wind blowing across her fingertips.

"You're not a real cat nugget." Nyx poked its forehead, "It would be great if you were real, then I could bury my face in your fur instead of just being confused. wind of."

Nia rolled her eyes and fell back into her body.

"I don't want anyone to hurt you anymore. Not even me."

Nyx touched her heart, as if speaking softly to someone.

"Because I am a sister and I have to protect my brother."
