Harry Potter’s Book of Sin

Chapter 1369: The silence after the joy

Views:

This carnival, which could be regarded as an impromptu carnival, lasted until the early morning. After everyone vented their anger by dancing around the campfire, the dinner was already digested, so everyone went to the dining table to fill their stomachs again.

Now, most people have gone back to their tents to rest.

Maka was sitting quietly in a corner of the open space, looking at the bonfire, which had become much smaller, in a daze. Beside the bonfire, Hermione and others took the initiative to clean up the mess, waving their wands to clean up the messy ground.

"Oh, is Ginny still sleeping?" Ron ran to the back of the dining table, looked at his sister lying on the crate containing ingredients, and couldn't help but shook his head, "I told her several times, Tell her not to drink so much sweet fruit wine... Although the alcohol content of that thing is not high, it is still wine after all!"

"It's useless to persuade anyone this time!" Harry, who was guarding Ginny, spread his hands. "And to be honest, she may be under too much pressure - it's my fault. If I could stay with her every day By her side, then she doesn’t need to worry so much all the time!”

"Hey, it's not your fault!" Upon hearing this, Ron immediately patted Harry on the shoulder and comforted him, "In a big way, you are protecting the people of London; in a small way, then At least it’s for our safety!”

"Oh, Ron—your hat is too big. I dare not wear it alone!" Harry smiled bitterly and said, "It is Maka's credit that we are safe, and it is Maka's credit that London is safe. I just I just did some trivial things."

"Well," Ron immediately shrugged, "It's whatever you say!"

At the same time, Maka, who was concentrating on something, vaguely heard someone mention her name, and subconsciously came back to look at Harry.

Of course, even if Harry didn't mention his name, it was time for him to snap back from his thoughts that were flying far away. Because soon he saw a familiar figure slowly walking over from another corner.

"Delphi," Maka smiled at the visitor, "How are you, did you have a good time tonight? Did you jump with those guys a few times?"

"I'm not very good at dealing with such lively scenes..."

Delphi came to Maka's side holding an already empty wine glass, and then while talking, they sat down together very naturally.

"But... well, actually I'm quite happy just looking at it."

"Well," Maka nodded, "get used to it slowly! The days to come are still long!"

After saying this, Makafu raised his head again and looked at the sky full of stars... You can see that there is a star with a small tail, which does not look very conspicuous at the moment.

"But that big rock in the sky only has a few days left."

After hearing this, Delphi couldn't help but follow his gaze and look up.

Yes, it is the stone that is destined to fall towards Hogwarts - even though it is so small now, it can only be seen clearly when the sky is darkest, but as long as it touches the earth's atmosphere, it will It will become the brightest "star" in the sky.

"It's best to resolve Haierbo's matter before it falls."

Delphi's words gained Maka's approval. But while the latter nodded slightly, there wasn't much confidence in the expression on his face.

Nowadays, it is too difficult to deal with Haierbo. In fact, if it weren't for the fact that the demon couldn't seem to leave the foggy confines of London, Britain would have become a mess by now.

At least until Maka finds a way to effectively hurt the devil, trying to figure out a way while dragging her away - this is the safest way to deal with it.

"Maka, and Miss Fisher...are you looking at the stars?"

And just when Maka and Delphi both fell into silence because they encountered a problem, another vague voice suddenly sounded from behind them.

"Luna—"

Maka immediately retracted his distant gaze and looked at the giant prairie dog that was approaching behind him.

"Yes! Look at the stars, enjoy the humid night breeze, and then discuss the ownership of the chiffon cake in my hand." He shook his right hand jokingly, and a piece of cake suddenly appeared out of nowhere. , "Oh, I have to remind you, this is the last dessert tonight!"

"Oh, it sounds like you... No, I mean, 'we' seem to need a wizard war chess to prove our luck and strength! The chess pieces can win me trophies!"

"Wizard's Chess? Oh, that's a good idea!"

When Maka heard this, she immediately stood up, then flicked her index finger to create a chessboard and a large number of neatly arranged chess pieces on the ground.

"Of course, I won't participate... You and Delphi can have a duel. Whoever wins will be eligible to enjoy the last piece of soft and delicious chiffon cake."

Originally, Maka wanted to ask Delphi if she knew how to play wizard war chess, but who knew, she actually seemed to be very familiar with it. And as Luna sat down where Maka was sitting, and started fighting back and forth with Delphi on the chessboard, all the friends who were doing their own things just now were attracted over.

Unknowingly, Maka, who was holding the "trophy" in one hand, was gradually pushed to the outside by the spectators, and in the end he couldn't even see the entire chessboard.

"Oh... So anyway, come on!"

He chuckled and lifted the cake up, and the cake floated slowly but steadily in mid-air as if being lifted by an invisible force.

As for Maka, she walked out of the open space with a satisfied smile as if she had accomplished something. It was already getting late, and she had already had enough rest. She should do what she needed to do next. Something happened.

"Maka!"

But before he could take more than two steps, he heard Hermione calling softly from behind, which forced him to pause slightly.

"What's wrong?" Maka said with a smile, "There is really only one piece of cake. If you want to compete for it, why not fight the winner among them again?"

"Oh no," Hermione pursed her lips, rolled her eyes and said, "I'm not greedy! Well, I just want to talk to you again... you know, about London and that Haierbo of… "

Upon hearing this, Maka scratched her head hesitantly, and then raised her hands to signal.

"If it's just a brief discussion..." he said, "then come along!"
