"Hermione... are we really leaving like this? To be honest, I didn't even understand what happened just now. Why did we leave in such a confused way?"
There were almost no people on the streets at the moment, because under Lupin's arrangement, the personnel responsible for defending the interior of the town had been deployed to the outer areas and near the central square.
At this moment, Ron was carrying a stretcher using a levitating spell, taking Hermione, who still had mobility issues, towards the previous temporary residence.
Although he is still in a state of confusion, but since Hermione agrees with the suggestions brought by Delphi, it seems that there is no need for him to object.
Ron has always trusted Hermione's judgment.
But, believe it or not, he will naturally remain confused where he should be confused. While taking Hermione back to his residence, he couldn't help but ask a question along the way.
But what he didn't expect was that Hermione, who was lying on the stretcher, shook her head after hearing his doubts.
"Actually, I don't know much better than you about this matter," she lay on her back and thought for a while, "but at least I can be sure that this is indeed Maka's intention. As for what exactly Maka is planning What, I dare not make a conclusion easily yet... Maybe we won’t know until we return to our residence according to what Delphi said!”
There were still some ambiguities in Hermione's words, but Ron could hear it at least. Obviously, Hermione probably already had a certain guess in her mind, but she just didn't have enough confidence, so she said it. I "don't dare to draw conclusions easily yet."
At this point, Ron was quite relieved. Because what Hermione was guessing was obviously Maka's plan, and how could Maka's plan be so easy to guess? Ron was used to it being that he couldn't figure it out until the last minute.
So this time, he didn't ask anything, but subconsciously quickened his pace.
Not long after, when the main road was no longer empty, but gradually began to have scattered patrols coming and going in a hurry, he turned a corner at an intersection, took a short detour in an alley, and finally arrived at his destination. land.
To be honest, Ron felt a little pity looking at such a big house, because after they were assigned to this temporary residence, it seemed that they basically didn't make good use of it.
"Squeak-"
After Ron casually pushed open the unprotected door and took a look inside, he couldn't help but mutter:
"Hermione, didn't she say that Maka has set up protective magic here? It looks like... nothing is different from before we left?"
"Who knows? Don't stand here talking at the door, just go in!" Hermione said, "I guess no one is in the room, it's just us who are back."
Ron nodded slightly after hearing this, then waved his wand and took Hermione on the stretcher to the living room downstairs.
But at this moment, with another "crunch" sound, the seemingly innocent door behind the two people closed automatically with a "bang".
"Okay! It seems that even if it's not Maka, there is a wizard who is far more powerful than me and has come over to make some arrangements... Hermione, didn't you find anything?"
Hermione didn't reply because there was no need for an answer.
Before he finished speaking, a breeze suddenly blew up in the living room, and a cloud of dust that came from nowhere transformed into Maka's human form, and he reached out and handed over a piece of tissue paper.
When Ron subconsciously raised his hand to take it, he saw the figure made of dust immediately returned to dust, fell back to the ground silently and disappeared.
"What does it say?"
Seeing this, Hermione, who was struggling to hold up her upper body on the stretcher, couldn't help but ask.
…
Just when Ron and Hermione were called to their temporary residence by Delphi and received the news that Maca had stayed there earlier, the main force of the zombie army finally arrived as scheduled.
Maka and Harry stood in the open space outside and in the church ruins respectively, and easily felt the vibrations coming from the ground that they had experienced earlier on the front line.
After a while, the source of the earthquake was obviously getting closer and closer, so close that if there was no fog in the sky, it would probably be visible from a distance even under the cover of night.
But at this moment, the earthquake on the ground suddenly disappeared.
"Harry, focus, don't be distracted next time."
As soon as Maka finished speaking, Harry behind him didn't even have time to respond when he saw a tall black figure suddenly appear on the edge of the open space not far from here.
The other party was standing in the large area of ice cones that Maka had created before, looking left and right with interest, seeming to be very interested in Maka's "artwork" of "icicles skewering living corpses".
"Don't be so nervous... the night is still very long."
"Really?" Maka said calmly, "But why do I feel that you can't wait any longer?"
While speaking, Maka moved his fingers slightly. Although nothing could be seen from his expression, he was almost completely on guard.
Haierbo is very strong, so strong that he can no longer completely contain him alone - this was verified by him at Hogwarts not long ago.
To be honest, no matter what Maka was planning, it can be said that he was always serious when fighting Haierbo.
Such a desperate situation such as being seriously injured and comatose at that time is not something that can be faked!
At the same time, after hearing Maka's words, Haierbo on the other side couldn't help but raise his hand and touch his dark bald head.
"'Can't wait'?" He murmured, and then smiled softly, "Yes, after all, I am really happy now - all the methods Rowena has left have failed so far. Because even if she No matter how smart I am, I never expected that I would find this shortcut! This alone is enough to keep me happy for a long time."
Yes, as Herbo said, Rowena Ravenclaw did leave a lot of tricks against him.
For example, he made his husband survive into this era with great difficulty, trying to use the power of meteorites to destroy the Devouring Mirror; for example, he teamed up with Salazar Slytherin to prepare a special basilisk specifically targeted at Halbo; and For example, giving the bronze eagle the power of a space rule is so effective that it can even cut off the devil's arm at the shoulder level.
Even... maybe including Maka, the so-called "candidate", is unknown.
However, all of this caused a lot of trouble for Haierbo who was resurrected in this era - especially Maka. He possessed the Scroll of Truth and studied ancient rules of magic, and even suppressed Haierbo to run around the world.
However, all obstacles were overcome step by step by Haierbo.
"That's okay, you can just be 'pleased'!" At this time, Maka looked at the other party and said slowly, "But before that, I would like to ask you a question while I still have a chance to have a normal conversation with you. —”
