If given a choice, then probably even Harry would not be willing to reveal his hostility to the other party at this time.
This was not in line with the plan that Hermione had made beforehand, and it would not be of any benefit to him and Maka at the moment.
However, the reality is that there is no choice!
Although the "beautiful lady" in front of them almost didn't say a word about whether they could leave - although the magical reaction of the black mist in the corridor had silently explained her attitude, if Maka and Harry could still leave safely After breaking out of the castle, she probably wouldn't hold on to the two of them with her current attitude.
However, will the black fog in the castle now just be used to block the eyes and perceptions of intruders as before
After actually seeing "this one" in front of her, at least Maka didn't dare to gamble easily. Because he couldn't guarantee that after he and Harry returned to the darkness together, both of them would be fine.
There was actually only one choice from the beginning, so at least at this moment, Harry's sudden toughness... was undoubtedly correct.
"You did a very good job, very well!" Maka said secretly in her heart, looking at Harry's back holding the sword and moving forward, "Even if the person holding it at this time is Godric Gryffindor, I’m afraid it’s impossible for him to do better than you are now, after all, the challenges you are facing now are ones that even he has never faced before!”
Maka believed that if Harry could survive today's crisis, he would be completely recognized by the Sword of Gryffindor and replace Godric Gryffindor as its new generation master.
And looking at this, not to mention whether Harry can do it, at least he is obviously fully prepared.
"... Kern, we will not allow you to continue to implement your evil plan! We will not allow it, and no one else in this world will allow it! No one is willing to turn themselves into the so-called 'new' you call them. Human beings'... Do you know? Even the living corpses born from this disaster are also opposing these terrible 'atrocities' of yours! Huh, maybe you know all this, you just pretend not to see it. !”
Maybe it was because he had been holding his breath for so long in the past few days that Harry spoke a series of words without even taking a breath. Apparently it was because of this that Witch Kern waited until he finally finished saying all this, then paused and said:
"There is a lot of resentment in your heart, I can feel it, and... maybe you don't believe it, but I can actually understand your resentment and rejection of me... "
As she said this, she nodded slightly, her blue eyes full of tenderness at this moment.
"Yes," she continued, "You are right. I know all the things you just mentioned, and I am... indeed just pretending not to see it."
"What?"
Harry's steps towards that direction finally stopped, and he was very close to the witch Kern, probably only three or five feet away.
He seemed a little surprised that the other party admitted this matter frankly - this woman acted too naturally, as if she had expected everything from the beginning, including the fact that he, Harry Potter, would appear in front of her today. He said this to his face.
"Don't you understand?" At this moment when Harry was stunned, Kern continued, "Look, 'he'... you understand, when I said this, 'he' had already realized that I There are actually difficulties behind making such a decision.”
When he said the word "him", Kern turned his head slightly and cast his gaze at the incomplete figure nailed to the wall high up behind him.
This should be the first time since Maka and Harry saw her paying attention to that body—it was obviously the one with the strongest presence in the auditorium. Maka and Harry didn't even glance at her, and she didn't even say a word, which seemed a little unusual.
After all, from the moment Ms. Kern appeared in front of the two of them, everything she said and behaved was quite normal. Under such circumstances, anything unusual would appear particularly suspicious—if the person here was Haierbo, there would be nothing surprising.
And now...
"'He'..." Harry finally glanced at the top of the podium, then forcibly restrained the thought of looking back at Maka, shook his head severely and said, "No, what do you want to say? Or should I say , do you really think that the things you and Haierbo have done so far are for the benefit of everyone?"
"It seems you already understand."
Kern turned around again, looked at Harry and said:
"Then why don't you understand
Courageous young wizard, since you can stand in front of so many people and come to me step by step, I believe you are also the kind of person who is not afraid of sacrifice and has a broad mind. Please think about it carefully. In the future, human society will not only There will no longer be a distinction between wizards and 'Muggles'. Everyone can have physical strength and magical abilities powerful enough to withstand all natural disasters, and everyone can gain eternal life beyond the limits of alchemy!
Death will no longer be the end for most people, but another starting point in everyone's life!
Also, since you just mentioned the 'new humans' who were born during this period, I think you already know - the spirits of the new humans are interconnected, and people are both individuals and one body. Then, in the future human society composed of new human beings, there will definitely be no more senseless discrimination, cruel disputes and unpredictable human turmoil... What else can be more exciting than this future? What about yearning? "
At the end, even the witch Kern, who had been calm and composed from beginning to end, couldn't help but take a deep breath, and then let it out slowly...
"The price is indeed painful, and it is extremely difficult for many people to accept it. I can understand this." She said, and looked at Harry again, "If it only takes your death to get that If you have a radiant and bright future, I think that although you will be hesitant, distressed, and afraid, you will be willing to accept it in the end, right? I can see that you are such a person - but obviously not everyone can have something like you They have the same courage and heart, don’t they?”
She sighed, and finally shook her head as if she was asking Harry, but also as if she was asking herself:
"Is it worth the pain and sacrifice of one generation in exchange for a bright future for countless generations from now on? Do you think it's worth it?"
