"Ms. Kern..."
"We're back."
Although I am a little reluctant, the word "come back" is used here, which is actually somewhat appropriate.
After all, she and Luna had just left here, looking as embarrassed as the goblins in the back garden of the Burrow who were being chased by Crookshanks all over the yard.
However, no matter how thrilling the scene during the escape is, you will eventually come back when it's time to come back.
Because their home is here.
"I hope I can still eat the last bowl of my favorite milk pudding here when I graduate."
This is what Luna said after escaping from the auditorium earlier.
Of course, this is far from expressing the thoughts of everyone present at this moment, because people like Safina and others are not even from Hogwarts.
But to be honest, even Hermione, who had far less affection for this campus than Luna, would have been hard-pressed to think of milk pudding at that time and under those circumstances.
Those were the kind of thoughts that only Luna would have from time to time.
only…
"Just looking at this scene, I do miss the noisy but joyful dinner scene a little bit!"
The moment she stepped into this empty, lonely, and strange auditorium again, Hermione was talking loudly according to the planned plan, but she was thinking this in her heart.
She originally thought that after feeling such suffocating invisible pressure, she would always feel nervous when she had to come back here again. But strangely, although this space was still oppressive to her, her nerves, which had become increasingly tense due to her many urgent plans before, suddenly relaxed after arriving here.
Looking at the graceful figure still sitting in the middle of the auditorium, the full sense of oppression seemed to break through its easy-going and indifferent appearance at any time... It was not that she couldn't feel this illusion, but it might be worse than the one behind her. Others come with greater clarity.
However, she still just said hello and walked inside step by step.
When the others saw this, most of them couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and then they took steps one after another and followed in.
At this time, the most nervous people were the usually cold zombie boy Rebes, and the group of strong men from the intelligent zombie clan led by him.
Yes, if the previous demons were the natural enemies of the living zombies, and Haierbo, who planned to give birth to them and also captured the body of the demon, was even more difficult for them to deal with... then the one in front of them now What kind of existence is a person to Rebes and the other living corpses
Obviously, Rebes had already thought about this issue more than once before he decided to come with Hermione and others.
They have thought about it, hesitated, and even thought about it repeatedly in the most rational way of thinking.
"Will you die?"
"Maybe it will."
Although for the living zombie clan, life and death are just a cycle.
"So... will you be easily controlled by the other party the moment you meet?"
"Maybe so."
After all, it is said that the witch has already mastered the true meaning of the rules of the soul and is the incarnation of death. For these "things" that were born based only on part of the rules of the soul, they are simply equivalent to gods.
However, Rebes knew that if he wanted to survive freely in this world, today's meeting was inevitable.
So here they come.
And until this moment, when Rebes and his party followed the crowd and finally saw "that being"...
"Why?"
When everyone in front followed Hermione and stepped forward, only a group of intelligent zombies headed by Rebes stopped in front of the black fog barrier at the door.
In fact, they were all stunned after they passed through the black fog barrier blocking the door with everyone.
Because they discovered that the situation that they thought they would feel endless oppression and threat in front of "that being" did not appear, but when they faced that figure, they felt only a kind of cordiality from the heart. .
This is undoubtedly an extremely unfamiliar feeling to Rebes and other living zombies. After all, they do not have the concept of "parents". Even Haierbo, who could barely be regarded as their "father", had never looked at them seriously and only treated them as "by-products" that could be used slightly.
If they had ever had experiences similar to human childhood, they might understand that this feeling could be called "family affection."
However, when Hermione and others finally realized that the group of zombie friends had not followed, the witch Kern, who had not responded to Hermione's greeting just now, suddenly came out of her quiet reading state. He raised his head.
Then she spoke.
"Anyway, at least on this point, 'he' has done a very good job... Being able to see the birth of new human beings, my busy life can be considered to have its corresponding value."
Kern's gaze seemed to pass directly through the person's body. When Hermione and others felt that she was looking at them, the object they were looking at was actually the group of people behind them who were still standing at the door. Rebes and other intelligent zombies in front of him.
However, when they heard the words "'He' did a very good job", everyone present couldn't help but feel their hearts skip a beat.
Who does "he" refer to? Haierbo
That's right, maybe Halbo is actually nothing in the eyes of the other party, so until now, Kern has not paid attention to Halbo's current situation - those things that happened not long ago should be impossible for her I don’t know—but according to someone once said, this person in front of me is Haierbo’s teacher after all!
So even though he didn't care much about that apprentice, he still spent a lot of effort to bring her back to this world.
So when everything the other party has done for her is clearly displayed in front of her, such a compliment, although it comes a little late, is never excessive.
Well, that should be it, right? In short, it makes sense, that is...
"... You should not and do not need to mix with old humans like them, because you are the residents of this new world in the future. The more you do this, the more it will make it impossible for them to become you - me I know that through this period of contact and companionship, you have developed feelings for these old humans. Don't worry, this is normal, because they will eventually become one of you... I don't know what 'he' is like What did you say? But I believe 'he' must have mentioned it to you. It's not a mistake to live with them, but it's just not the time yet... "
"Don't mention 'him' to me!"
Suddenly, Rebes exploded.
