"In this case, if it were me...if it were me...could I be able to do something? Yes, that's right...those things that only I can do!"
The moment Ron subconsciously started running, his mind was almost blank except for these few words. And this may be because... In fact, Ron himself knew very well that if he thought about some things too clearly, then he would probably lose even the courage inspired by this impulse.
After all, what he is about to do at this moment can be said to be "dancing with death". With only a half-baked self-healing ability, he is really qualified to gamble in front of an extremely powerful demon. Life
Therefore, don’t overthink it!
"Ron! You don't want to die—"
Hannah's screams were mixed in the wind in her ears, and came faintly behind her. Ron probably heard it, but his brain was almost under the Imperius Curse at the moment, and he couldn't think about what the other party was saying.
By the time the others in the team...especially Ginny would react in astonishment, Ron had already run a long way away.
I don't know where his burst of running speed came from. He didn't even ride on the broom, but he ran so fast, which really caught people off guard.
"Harry!"
Hermione finally came to her senses and saw Ron rushing into the dusty area at an alarming speed because of its wide range. Knowing that she might not be able to make it in time, she immediately headed towards the halo in mid-air. Leigh shouted. At the same time, another rune card in her hand was quickly thrown out, trying to use the rules of gravity to stop Ron.
To be honest, Hermione actually regrets it now, because in fact, Ron's sudden choice to rush out just now had a lot to do with her.
…
"Ron, this plan to kill demons... do you want to go too?"
Before setting off today, Hermione asked Ron such a question - of course she could tell that since Harry, with the help of Delphi, was completely out of the delicate situation of needing help to exert his full power, Although Ron no longer showed the disappointment on his face as before, he was still obviously quite lonely.
I thought that despite my lack of strength, I could still serve as a crucial auxiliary to help Harry and Hermione, two former close friends. This was obviously what Maca had done for them before leaving. A few less talented companions found their special place in the team.
However, when Harry finally no longer needed the support of others and was able to exert the true power of Gryffindor's sword to some extent by himself, Ron, who should have been happy for his good friend, found in embarrassment that he What's more in my heart is the frustration of losing the value of existence.
Therefore, before setting off, when Ron, who was not originally included in the team, heard Hermione's question, all he could do was be stunned.
"I just... don't have to, right?"
After being stunned for a moment, he hesitated and showed a weak smile.
yes! Even among the four companions who initially assisted Harry, he seemed to be the most useless one. After losing that position, Hannah and Ginny were still able to assist Luna in setting up the formation with their knowledge of ancient magic texts, and Neville was even able to use the Patronus Charm with outstanding skill.
Only he, Ron Weasley, even now no longer suffers from low self-esteem as he often did in the past, and he can even try to face up to his own shortcomings.
But obviously, "insufficient" is relative. And in the process of comparison, the more you look directly at the "gap", the more you will realize that there may really be an insurmountable gap between ordinary people and geniuses!
We have obviously worked hard enough and achieved corresponding gains, but why does the gap not only not narrow, but continue to widen
With such a question that seemed to never be answered, Ron finally heard Hermione's next words:
"If you still want to participate in this operation, I have a task for you - maybe this task will not be executed until the end of the plan, or simply, we don't actually want you to have it. opportunity to perform this mission. This is just an insurance against the possibility of failure... If such a mission is possible, are you willing to accept it?"
…
"Even if you say it is just an 'insurance', this task sounds very important. Or it can even be said that when it really needs someone to perform it, its importance will be infinitely magnified depending on the situation at that time... Is it appropriate to leave such a critical task to me?"
Ron still remembered that before setting off, he asked Hermione this question when he still didn't know what the specific content of the mission was.
And after asking, he did not wait for Hermione to answer, and then nodded vigorously without knowing the content of the task:
"... No matter whether it's suitable or not, since you have asked, you can't go back on your word! I promise! Just leave this task to me!"
But neither Hermione nor Ron expected that the actual development of the situation was not only beyond Ron's expectation, but even Hermione, who habitually imitated Maka in preparing for the worst beforehand, had already Realize that the reason why "accidents" are called "accidents" is because no matter how perfect your plan is, there will always be unpredictable omissions.
The original task she prepared for Ron was that when Neville's Patronus failed to successfully activate the rune array, Ron would activate it on his behalf - and that must be under the condition that Harry could arrive in time for rescue. of.
But now, when "Wrath" fell to the ground and stirred up dust in the sky, it was a great blessing that Harry could escape from that area without being injured. If Ron rushed in at this moment, would Harry be able to accurately follow him and protect him
Killing a demon is naturally a very important thing. To a certain extent, as long as it can be done, the sacrifice can be regarded as "worth it".
However, who can be calm just watching their companions take the initiative to step on the edge of life and death? And... is it really worth it
"Harry!"
"I know-"
Hearing Hermione shouting from below, Harry, who had already noticed the situation and began to swoop down, only took the time to respond and had no time to think about anything else.
Because at that moment, he had already seen Ron rushing in from the edge of the dust.
And in the smoke and dust, accompanied by a thunderous rumble, "Angry" was getting up.
