“What else would I order?”
This sentence has been swirling in Ron's head since just now. But no matter what he thought, he couldn't think of what else he could do when faced with the situation in front of him.
At this moment, he couldn't help but realize again how mediocre and powerless he was as one of Hermione, Harry, Neville and even Maka's friends.
Not to mention Maka and Harry who holds the Sword of Gryffindor, even if it is replaced by Hermione who seems to be closer, in this case, she will definitely be able to come up with various means to adequately resist the powerful enemy. Preparation.
Oh no, rather, this is actually Hermione's strength, right
"call-"
Suddenly, Ron shook his head and gently exhaled the turbid air in his chest.
To be honest, although Ron still can't get rid of the negative emotions of depression and loss, he has learned to adjust after all.
He knew that if he allowed the depression in his heart to grow like crazy, it would be good if he didn't cause more trouble, let alone find a way to do something!
However, if you force yourself to calm down first and don't let those messy thoughts affect your judgment, you can at least prevent yourself from making some stupid mistakes that you should never make.
After he emptied his head for a while, he began to search again, thinking about the question that might never be answered - what else could he do in the face of the predicament that the dark wizard might come back at any time
After a long while, he finally prayed secretly:
"Bless me Merlin, let Maka come here quickly! It's not that I have no spine, the point is... I really can't do it! There are so many lives here! I can't afford it!"
And at the next moment, it seemed that the prayer in his heart was really heard... However, the person who heard it was not Merlin, or even Maka.
Suddenly, a rush of footsteps came from the stairs at the back, and not long after, he saw a figure running three steps at a time downstairs.
"There is something going on in the cornfield outside! Strengthen alerts at all locations immediately and check all protective spells!"
Just as he was speaking, the diminutive Auror suddenly turned around and looked quickly towards Ron.
"Mr. Weasley?"
Looking at the gaze that looked towards him, and the more gazes that followed, Ron didn't even have the time to hesitate.
Everyone knows now that this is not the time to hesitate!
"Just do that," he said immediately. "In addition, the injured will be moved to the second floor immediately. Once the defense cannot be defended, they will apparate away immediately!"
Are you planning to withdraw when the situation turns bad
But it must be said that "run if you can't fight" is indeed a reasonable choice under any circumstances, and it can be said to be the first choice in terms of stop loss.
Although then, morale is likely to plummet, and if the enemy catches up again, the possibility of being defeated will be greatly increased.
Especially an unprepared temporary retreat like Ron's is actually more like a gamble of life and fate.
"Mr. Weasley, I think I have to remind you—"
Suddenly, Mr. Derwent, the therapist next to Ron, pointed out in a low voice:
"Leaving aside other injuries, at least this Mr. Tucker... I'm afraid he won't be able to withstand the crushing and shock during the appearance of the follower!"
But when Ron heard this, he gritted his teeth and said:
"I'll stay."
There is no doubt that even if he stays, he still seems to be unable to do anything. But obviously, this decision can also be said to be a decision of Ron Weasley.
Mr. Tucker, who was lying on the floor, was actually on the verge of death. It was only because of Neville's white essence that he was still breathing.
In order to ensure the safety of more people, Ron felt that it was better to just give up on him!
But, does one person really have the right to make decisions for another person? Especially the most important, precious and priceless thing for that person - life!
Ron felt that he probably didn't have that right, so he could only pay the other party with his life - maybe, this could be considered a small amount of compensation
He didn't know whether he was right or wrong in thinking this way, but he didn't want to weigh the importance of it. His brain was not very good to begin with, and it would be impossible to get too entangled in this kind of thing.
However, for those Aurors and Derwent who did not understand Ron's true strength, Ron's decision seemed to have no problem.
Not only that, they even thought it was a good idea.
Ron had said before that he was not as good at actual combat as Neville. But saying "not good at" doesn't mean that he is really bad.
Think of Longbottom, think of McClane!
If we use their level of strength as a benchmark, the combined strength of everyone here might only be described as "not good at".
Therefore, when Ron proposed that he stay, everyone seemed very excited.
"Yes, Mr. Weasley's strength may not be enough to estimate the number of us, but if it is just Tucker, it will be no problem, right? Not to mention, Mr. Weasley is equivalent to having to do it alone. Everyone retreats to the rear to avoid being detected by the other party where they are going."
Although when facing that group of dark wizards, it seems that Aurors and strikers will have to be reduced to "fleeing in panic", which is indeed very frustrating. However, when necessary, appropriate avoidance to preserve the vitality is obviously also a reliable strategy and tactic.
"Understood!"
The thin Auror who came down to report the enemy's situation nodded immediately, then turned around and returned upstairs. At the same time, the team members who were waiting at their respective positions also nodded towards Ron.
Ron could only nod slightly reluctantly... Although he seemed to be quite calm at the moment, only he knew that this was just the calmness he was trying to pretend.
However, now that the order has been issued, there is no possibility of changing it.
He did not continue to struggle with whether his decision was appropriate. He immediately called on several slightly injured team members to join him and helped other injured people who had difficulty moving up to the second floor.
After a moment, one of the Aurors who was watching the situation outside let out a low voice, and everyone including Ron tensed up.
Those abominable... no, they are "terrible" dark wizards, they are coming!
"You guys go on, I'll... go down there and have a look!" Ron couldn't help but say this.
