"Why don't you let your son Jonathan recognize me as his godfather?"
Fang Mo smiled and said: "I have wanted a son for a long time. When he grows up, I can teach him magic."
"...Is this so?"
Hearing Fang Mo's statement, Joestar was stunned for a moment, and then he came to his senses.
Unlike Fang Mo's country, the term godfather is quite rare in Europe. After all, his biological father is not dead. It is indeed strange to suddenly have an adoptive father. However, Joestar is a noble after all, and he is very quick.
Then I understood what Fang Mo meant.
Obviously, the things mentioned by the other party have nothing to do with 'adopted children'.
In comparison, this is more like a concept of accepting a disciple, or recognizing the other person as a godfather.
After all, Joestar is a European, and he still knows a lot about godfathers. Fang Mo saved his life, and because he couldn't give birth to an heir, he wanted to be the godfather of his child Jonathan. As a
Of course it is impossible for a gentleman to refuse.
"I understand, Mr. Steve."
Joestar nodded: "Then...Jonathan's baptism will be left to you."
"rest assured."
Fang Mo stretched out his hand and made an ojβk gesture, and then patted his chest confidently: "I clearly assigned you the arrangements."
"..."
Joestar looked at Mo's actions in front of him, and for some reason a bad feeling suddenly arose in his heart.
But before he could say anything, Fang Mo spoke. Fang Mo touched his chin thoughtfully and looked him up and down: "By the way, Mr. Joestar, I have something to think about."
Please give me some advice."
"Um?"
Joestar asked strangely: "What?"
"you……"
Fang Mo looked at Joestar and asked curiously: "Do you believe in fate?"
"destiny?"
Hearing these two words, Joestar was suddenly stunned.
He originally thought that Fang Mo would ask him something else, about the noble's business, his own experience, or his son Jonathan, but the other party asked him such a strange question.
There was a long silence.
Only then did Joestar slowly speak.
"Mr. Steve, I think fate does exist. Although we can't see it, it affects us all the time. Each of us is a slave to fate."
"If my wife Mary hadn't bought that strange ancient mask, then she and I wouldn't have wasted time because of it. We happened to encounter that heavy rain on the way back... It can be said that it was precisely because of that antique mask that indirectly caused the
caused her death."
"This is fate."
"From the moment she saw the mask in the antique store, everything that followed was a foregone conclusion, including my encounter with you and Mr. Dario. Everything was destined by fate."
Having said this, Joestar closed his eyes silently, sighed and said: "We think we have resisted fate, but we don't know that this is also part of fate."
"Um……"
After hearing what Joestar said, Fang Mo also nodded: "I see, is that what you think?"
"This is just my humble opinion."
Joestar said.
"What if fate forces you to die?"
Fang Mo asked again: "Will you reject this arrangement of fate? Or... accept it happily?"
"I don't think I'm afraid of death." Joestar pondered for a moment, and then said seriously: "Death is not scary, what is really scary is meaningless death. As a gentleman of the Joestar family
, I hope that I can die worthy, and if this is the case, then I will happily accept the arrangement of fate."
"Your answer is really admirable."
Fang Mo glanced at George Joestar in surprise. He had to say that the consciousness of the Jojo family was so high that Fang Mo didn't even know how to continue the conversation.
In the near future, Dario Brando's child, a villain named Dio, will seek the property of the Joestar family, and just when the other party wants to kill Jonathan, George Joestar
Suddenly he blocked the sword with his body, risked his life to save his child, and then died in his son's arms.
Fang Mo wanted to save this kind gentleman.
But after hearing what the other party said, Fang Mo didn't know how to speak.
When the day comes when Dio takes action, will you take action to save him? Or will you just quietly watch the other person sacrifice himself and pass on his golden spirit to his son Jonathan?
"Mr. Steve, do you see my fate?"
Joestar is just kind-hearted and not stupid. He has already reacted after previous exchanges. After all, Fang Modu calls himself a mage. It seems quite normal to use astrology to predict the future.
"Roughly the same."
Fang Mo nodded. He didn't mind the spoilers very much and asked directly: "Do you want to know?"
"No need to say anything else." Joestar thought for a while and finally couldn't help but said: "But can you please tell me when I will die?"
"Probably...after your son becomes an adult."
Fang Mo touched his chin. He couldn't remember the specific time, but when Dio and Jonathan fought, it was obvious that both of them were adults: "You will die in the arms of your son."
"Is that so?"
When Joestar heard this, he felt relieved: "That's enough... as long as Jonathan grows up, I won't have anything to worry about."
After saying this, Joestar stood up directly from the sofa.
"It's getting late, Mr. Steve."
Joestar saluted Fang Mo, and then said: "It's time to say goodbye. I have benefited a lot from my communication with you today, and I will cherish every day that follows."
After saying that, Joestar turned around and walked outside.
Fang Mo looked at Joestar's back, thought for a moment, and then said to him: "Actually, I can save you."
"No need, Mr. Steve."
When Joestar heard this, he paused slightly, but soon continued to walk towards the door: "The Joestar family has been gentlemen for generations, and so am I, and a true gentleman will not be afraid of death.
…”
After saying that, Joestar opened the door and left.
"..."
Fang Mo didn't speak, just looked quietly at the direction Joestar left.
To be honest, he feels a little complicated right now.
In fact, as early as in the Marvel world, he forcibly rescued Thor's mother, the Asgardian Goddess Frigga. The other party also expressed that she was willing to obey fate and choose to die, but
Still, he was saved by Fang Mo without any explanation.
Because Frigga's death was a pity in Fang Mo's opinion.
After watching the entire movie, he was filled with a strong impulse and felt that the other party should not die like this.
But George Joestar is different.
His death is not a regret, but more like a sublimation.
It was precisely because he chose to die happily that the first generation of Jojo was created...that is, the golden spirit of his son Jonathan Joestar, which gave him the courage to move forward and a heart full of perseverance and compassion.
Fang Mo was a little conflicted.
The other party used his own death to achieve Da Qiao.
Fang Mo didn't think this was a regret, but rather admired him a little.
Theoretically speaking, it was precisely because I admired him that I should let him die, but for some reason I always felt that something was wrong. Also because of his charming personality, I didn't want him to die.
"This is really confusing... huh?"
Fang Mo rubbed his temples, but then he was suddenly stunned, and then he laughed: "Fuck, is this the charm of JoJo?"
Shaking his head, Fang Mo stopped thinking about Joestar.
The other party can live for at least twenty more years. It is really too early to worry about it now. Instead of sitting here and worrying about this, it is better to study your own MC items first.
After all, he brought a lot of fun things this time.
