"Luna, can you tell me the reason why you decided to agree to cooperate with the other party?"
After the initial consultations had a general direction and the Lord of the Living Corpses returned to England with the twins, Hermione finally couldn't help but look at Luna's back as she stood up and asked.
Of course, she was definitely not the only one who was curious... or confused, so when she asked this question, other friends around her also cast inquiring glances at Luna.
"Reason?" Luna left her seat, turned around, looked at Hermione and said, "I thought you and Delphi had already guessed the reason? Isn't that why you asked me to conduct this negotiation? Really? Speaking of which... I have to thank you for giving me this opportunity."
When Luna said this, a strong wind suddenly blew from the sea, ruffling her long, light golden hair. The slightly curled hair was flying in front of her face, forcing her to gently push it back.
So she stood in the wind, showing the same dazed but light smile as before.
"It seems... I haven't talked to Maka for a long time," she said. "He still likes to preach to people as before."
Before he finished speaking, the rain that had been suffocating in the clouds above for a whole night finally fell down in a fluttering manner.
"It's raining."
Luna pursed her lips.
The raindrops were obviously not heavy, but there were wet marks rolling across my cheeks, which made me feel itchy.
…
In northern England, deep in the mountains, there is a castle once named Hogwarts.
There is a deep mountain forest on one side of the castle, and a large lake behind it. The lake flows from underground to the direction of the front cliff, and is connected to the road down the mountain by a straight bridge in front of the castle.
At the other end of the bridge is the main entrance of this ancient castle, which was also the former gate of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
But now, the exquisite iron gate with a powerful protective charm has been removed.
No one would dare to break in without the owner's consent, so the door would have no meaning and value, and would only add to the inconvenience. As a result, dismantling it became a matter of course.
As for why no one dares to go in now... You can probably understand it just by looking at the current appearance of the castle from a distance!
Perhaps because the altitude here is higher and there are no strange clouds, the weather here is still beautiful and the vegetation is green and green, and even the flowers in the flower beds are in full bloom.
However, there was something in this vestibule that was particularly unpleasant.
It was a piece of black smoke that seemed to be particularly heavy. It poured out like a waterfall from every wide open window and every open doorway of that ancient castle, but it was restrained around the castle by some invisible force. on the ground within dozens of feet.
It was as if someone didn't want the thick black mist to completely cover up the greenery on the ground, and deliberately left most of the vestibule alive. It's just that the contrast between the two colors is too sharp, which makes the castle even more eerie and terrifying today.
The entire castle seems to have been moved directly from the hell that may not exist in Muggle legends. It is a place where demons only live.
It's no wonder that under the clear sky thousands of miles away, even if there is no door, this castle full of black air will make people reluctant to approach it at all.
As for breaking in... Even if you want to die, there's no need to go to this trouble, right
However, in fact, the person who lived in the former Hogwarts Castle was not a demon - at least it didn't look like it. The person living here now is a woman, a cold woman.
Her name may have been Kern, because a long time ago people called her "Ms. Kern."
"Ta...ta...ta...ta."
Suddenly, a series of unhurried footsteps sounded in the castle foyer, which was immersed in deathly silence. They came from far to near, perhaps because the environment was too empty and seemed a bit distant.
Not long after, in the black mist that seemed to swallow up the entire castle, a tall and tall figure rolled out of the black mist.
It was a woman wearing a white linen dress. Her long curly black hair was simply tied with a copper hairband and hung diagonally on one shoulder. She also wore several slender golden arm rings on her left hand.
This is a typical ancient Greek style, simple but graceful. It seems direct but actually implicitly shows her origin that ordinary people cannot imagine.
Ms. Kern is an extremely beautiful woman, she has always been, but no one would judge her based on her appearance. And she herself was not interested in this appearance. Just like when she returned not long ago, this was not what she showed to Maka and Haierbo.
"Sunlight, it's supposed to be warm... That's a problem."
After stepping out of the darkness inside the castle, Kern walked into the warm breeze and sunshine outside. But she was bathed in this harmonious radiance, and when she raised her hand and watched the light falling on her white palms, she seemed a little regretful.
Fortunately, for her, regret is always short-lived and can be ignored. Even though I can no longer feel the warmth and coldness now, what is a little regret compared to my grand long-cherished wish that will come true
She shook her head slightly, brushing away the insignificant sigh in her heart, and continued to raise her legs step by step down the steps hidden by the flowing black mist. Then she walked out of the dozens of feet and stepped gently on the green lawn. .
Then she suddenly stopped and looked down at the grass blades she stepped on. There seemed to be a trace of disgust in her eyebrows, but she soon relaxed again.
Kern no longer lowered his head and just continued to walk forward on the lawn. There were no footprints wherever she passed, and not even a blade of grass was broken. It was as if her entire body was as light as if it didn't exist.
In fact, when she came out this time, she really just wanted to take a walk...or maybe she wanted to confirm something secretly.
Along the non-existent path, Kern walked in the sunshine, but it was so cold that he seemed to be cut off from everything.
Before she knew it, she had strolled near the Forbidden Forest.
Not long ago, she walked out of the dragon's cave deep in the forest. Today, she didn't actually want to go back, she just came here subconsciously.
So after looking at the deep forest one more time, she turned around again and planned to go to the lake to relax.
But at this moment, a somewhat strange tree came into her eyes silently.
