"... It seems that you are still an idiot!"
Martin was quite annoyed by these words, but because Maka claimed to be Haierbo's apprentice, and seemed to be much better than him in terms of magic power, he was really embarrassed for a while.
And just when Martin was gritting his teeth secretly, Maka casually lifted the hood on her head back, naturally revealing a face that had already changed.
"I won't say much else, just work hard! Really, with your performance today, I don't even have the intention to compare with you... Don't worry, I won't say bad things about you in front of the teacher. Yes, hahaha..."
While Maka was mocking Martin's incompetence, she ignored him and dragged the girl floating in mid-air in front of her with a wave of her hand.
After casually glancing at the girl's face, he put his hand on her shoulder and was about to undo the control magic on the girl.
But at this moment, Martin, who was standing behind him, frowned and said coldly:
"You won't say bad things about me? Huh, if you don't say it, I will say it - the teacher has already ordered that all apprentices are prohibited from interacting with each other. I'm afraid there is something wrong with you appearing in the place where I am 'preaching' this time. ?”
Maka didn't know that Halbo actually made such a rule. When he heard Martin say this, he couldn't help but raised his eyebrows slightly as his back was turned to him.
However, this unexpected loophole is actually not difficult to make up for.
Soon, Maka was heard saying without looking back:
"Originally, I didn't want to meet you like this, because I came here just to see the abilities of the other apprentices that the teacher has accepted. But now, since I will appear in front of you, it means that I have already I am sure you will keep this shared secret for 'us'."
"We?" Martin couldn't help but repeat it with some confusion when he heard this word.
"Yes! You and I - 'us'!" Maka suddenly turned around, pointed at herself and the other party, and then said in a rather deliberate tone, "Look, this little girl belongs to us now. That's right, isn't it? If you have any plans, you can ask her to do certain things, and naturally I am the same."
As Maka said, she suddenly reached out and patted Martin on the shoulder, showing a sinister smile.
"Think about it! Having an internal agent who can do some small things at Hogwarts at any time, how much convenience she can bring to our future actions... Don't you want it?"
To be honest, this is the first time Maka has "created trouble for herself". Although it feels a bit funny, it is still a quite effective way of persuasion.
"So, although this idea came from me, for the sake of the believers you recruited, this little girl should stay with you!" Maka said, "However, if I need to help you with anything, If she does it... Well, you see, I will come to see you often in the future."
Maka's words really moved Martin.
Because he knew that his teacher Haierbo had always been at odds with Maca McClain of Hogwarts. If he could figure out that guy, the teacher would definitely give him a generous reward.
After thinking about it for a moment, Martin finally nodded, but still said angrily:
"You'd better come less often!"
He would say this, and naturally he had already considered the pros and cons and chose to agree to the matter.
In Martin's view, another apprentice of his teacher has appeared in front of him, and there is no telling how many more there are in the whole of Britain and even the whole of Europe! If you want to get more benefits from Haierbo, competition with each other is undoubtedly very important.
Up to now, although he had almost no favorable impression of this "competitor" who suddenly appeared, he had to secretly agree with the other party's good idea.
Not only that, he couldn't help but wonder whether he should look for other Haierbo apprentices in the future. Even if you don't do anything, it would be good to just take a look at the progress of other competitors in recruiting followers, right
Hearing Martin's words was regarded as acquiescence to his suggestion, and a rather special "cooperation agreement" was established.
It's just interesting to say that the basis for the cooperation between the two is based on the girl floating aside.
Finally, Maka released the girl's control again and let her fall gently to the ground.
All of a sudden, the girl from Slytherin lowered her head and trembled slightly - you know, she had just walked around on the edge of death, could this not make her feel scared
"You heard it too, so... do you know what to do?"
Maka just glanced at her briefly before, and then never paid more attention to her. Even though he was asking her questions now, he never stopped looking at her, but just looked in other directions casually.
When the girl heard this, she couldn't help but tremble, and she could only nod with her pale and bloodless lips.
"I, I understand... If the two gentlemen need me to do something, I will try my best to complete it."
Before Martin could speak, Maka said coldly:
"It's not 'as much as possible', but 'must' be completed! If it can't be completed... think about the consequences yourself!"
"Yes! Yes!" The girl was immediately frightened by his sinister tone, and her head almost dropped to her chest, "It's a 'must'... I will definitely complete it, definitely!"
"Hmph," Maka nodded with satisfaction, "If you understand, go back quickly - today is just the weekend, right? If you come here in the middle of the night and the professor finds out... Hey, then you are really useless. oh?"
"Ah! I, I'm leaving right now! I'm leaving right now!"
Watching the girl hurried through the church and left here in a hurry, Maka turned around again and looked at Martin behind her.
"Although I just said that, it was just a warning to her," Maka said. "When you make plans for her actions, remember to be cautious - now, you should be able to arrange it within Hogwarts." It's not that easy! Don't let that little girl do something too dangerous."
"I know how to measure myself, you don't need to tell me!" Martin replied impatiently, and then said, "So, can you leave now?"
"Oh, of course! Of course..."
Maka put on an indifferent expression, spread her arms and nodded:
"I hope you can stop acting so stupid next time we meet!"
Before he finished speaking, he saw his figure disappear in Martin's eyes in a flash. His speed was so fast that it would be difficult to even catch the distortion of space if you didn't look carefully.
Only Martin's wand, which had been in his hand since he appeared, was seen spinning and flying towards its owner at the last moment.
Seeing this, Martin quickly stretched out his hand and grabbed it in his hand again.
To be honest, he was very annoyed by Maka's repeated teasing, but he had to admit that he really didn't dare to attack that hateful guy casually.
"Tsk!"
Martin clicked his tongue suddenly, and then apparated away in a burst of twisting in space.
…
When Maka appeared again, he found that he was on the roof of a tall building, and the windbreaker wizard was still following him.
After he left the underground church just now, he first found her waiting in the stairway outside the church, and then activated the door key with her.
When the two of them appeared, they saw Lupine, Sirius and a series of other members of the Order of the Phoenix forming a circle around the point where he appeared, eating and chatting.
Originally, he planned to use the portkey to pull them all over when he needed manpower, but now he just used it in reverse.
What he didn't expect was that these guys would actually choose to wait on the roof. Although it was already spring, it was still quite cold at night. Did they come up here to drink from the northwest wind
"No need to hold on to the door key, just spread out."
After appearing, Maka first drove away everyone sitting in the group, and then said:
"There was a little accident just now, so it was delayed for a while... Those who attended the rally tonight, you should go directly to track and monitor the recipients you checked before!"
"Didn't Haierbo show up at the assembly?" Sirius asked immediately.
"Yes!" Maka nodded, "I gained a lot today. I learned a lot at once... Not only that, I even 'helped' him arrange a 'spy' in Hogwarts."
After he briefly explained the situation to everyone, Sirius obviously felt a little unhappy. He couldn't help but curl his lips and said:
"Is it Slytherin again..."
But after mentioning this, he thought of Maka and said that Martin seemed to be a Hufflepuff too. Regarding this point, everyone has different feelings.
It seems to be a normal thing for Slytherin students to attend this secret meeting. But it would be surprising to say that Martin, who carried out evil magic rituals and collected followers for Herbo, was a Hufflepuff.
After all, the little badgers of Hogwarts have always been low-key and stable, and there are very few people who take such risks to work for dark wizards.
But after all, Hufflepuff is the house with the largest number of students in Hogwarts. If one or two special guys occasionally appear, it doesn't seem to be a big deal.
"By the way," Tonks who was not far away suddenly asked curiously, "Who is that female Slytherin student? Do you recognize her?"
"Um."
Maka saw her asking and immediately nodded in response.
"I recognize it."
