Not all facts are heavy, but those things that can make people feel their real weight are often very close to the word "fact"...
In other words, that is what is called “reality”.
At this moment, Maka was in deep contemplation under the moonlight, and she faintly came into contact with the reality that only belonged to Miss Hermione Granger.
People's hearts are always unpredictable, because they often undergo new changes due to certain factors, which even I cannot easily control.
And the factors that can interfere with people's hearts are even more diverse.
Sometimes, when you are walking on the road and see a wild flower whose stem has been trampled by someone, it will make you feel sad; and sometimes, your continued efforts will lead to final failure because of a small mistake. That struggle Naturally, the pressure from time to time will suddenly turn into a source of pain.
Hermione's abnormality today may really be caused by the misunderstanding in the market in the morning.
At that time, she stood up as usual and stood in front of Luna at the first opportunity. But she didn't expect that it was just a misunderstanding. Everything she did couldn't even be described as "wasted effort" because they had actually started fighting each other at that time.
Of course, that's all. After all, Miss Granger's heart is indeed strong enough, and setbacks usually cannot break her perseverance.
However, at that moment, when Luna suddenly stood up and ended the battle that might have been completely intensified with a natural look on her face, Hermione's spirit finally wavered.
Students who know Luna basically know that although this girl is good-looking, she has always been eccentric.
Not only that, she has always been very smart, and she never once made a mistake when opening the door to the Ravenclaw common room. But unfortunately, she didn't use her brain in the right place, and even her academic performance was only average.
In addition, she would fall into a daze by herself from time to time, and she might not hear anyone calling her, so no one thought she was an outstanding girl.
Yes, even if Hermione never looks at others with prejudice, if she looks at it from an objective perspective, she feels the same way.
So, when Luna inexplicably made the African wizard put down his wand, Hermione was shaken.
But... yes, when she was at the scene, Hermione's heart was just shaken. To say that what made her suddenly feel paranoid was when Luna explained her behavior at that time under Maka's questioning.
If you want to use the principle of Legilimency to learn to see through the eyes of others, this is not an easy task. It can even be said that this is much more difficult than simply successfully casting the Legilimency Spell.
At least, as far as the application of this part of magic theory is concerned, Hermione herself is far from reaching that level.
Although the nickname "Miss Know-It-All" called by Snape was very annoying to Hermione, it must be said that this was another way in which Snape recognized her rich talents as Hermione Granger.
Ever since she entered Hogwarts, she had been sitting at the top of the class in terms of grades, and even Maka had never shaken her position.
Regarding personal talent and hard work, she is not willing to admit that she is inferior to others.
However, regardless of whether she is willing to give up or not, Miss Granger is not the only one who has the ability and perseverance in the world, and Maca's abnormal and terrifying progress is not comparable to her. Therefore, as long as she feels that she can continue to work hard, she will not give up hope of catching up with others.
But why was Luna the one who surpassed her this time
"Um-"
Maka certainly can't say that these things are completely unpredictable. But he is probably the one who has the biggest headache with this kind of thing.
"Anyway, let's go take a look first..." he said, and then looked at Harry and Ron beside him, "I know you are also worried about Hermione, so I won't let you go back now. You guys will stand there later. Just stay outside the door, don't go in no matter what happens... If she sees it, I can't guarantee you will suffer."
After saying that, Maka waved her hand to remove the silencing spell and walked straight to the door of the library. Harry and Ron behind him glanced at each other and followed suit.
But when Maka came to the door of the library, his steps stopped again. At this moment, his expression was a little subtle, because he sensed that there were two people in the library.
However, it was said to be a pause, but in fact his pace was just a little slow. No matter what the situation was inside now, he was destined to go in, because he couldn't ignore Hermione's problem.
If you have to say it, this matter has nothing to do with him at all, right
As the door of the library was pushed open, a soft light came into Maka's eyes. That was undoubtedly the light emitted by the wand's luminous spell. He had seen it countless times.
However, the light for lighting did not go out immediately because of the sound of his door opening. This level of alertness was not the "quality" that a student who came to the library to secretly leaf through books in the middle of the night should have.
But Maka didn't care about this, because although he couldn't see the actual situation in the corner of the book collection area from this angle, he somewhat understood the reason why the other party didn't extinguish the light.
When he took a step forward and walked through the aisle between bookshelves, two figures standing opposite each other immediately appeared in his sight.
Behind a certain bookshelf, a girl with long pale blond hair was standing at the innermost side of the bookshelf.
She was holding an opened magic book in her left hand, and lightly holding a glowing wand in her right hand. Her usually clear eyes now seemed to have a hint of seriousness. She didn't know whether the brilliance came from her heart or the shining light from the tip of the wand.
On the side near the aisle, another girl also held a wand that cast a luminous spell, but her other hand was empty. Just by looking at her iconic long, messy brown hair, it is not difficult to identify her even if her face cannot be seen.
"Hermione...Luna."
Maka stopped at the side of the bookshelf and called out their names softly.
The scene before her was actually not difficult to deduce. It must have been Hermione who came to the library wearing an invisibility cloak and immediately discovered that there was another person here. And when she got closer to the light and took a look, she discovered that the person who came here first was actually Luna, who had been lingering in her mind these past few days.
It is conceivable that the two people met here in a hurry, and no one expected it, so it is reasonable to look at each other in silence at this moment.
Both girls are very familiar with Maka's voice. Although Hermione did not turn around immediately, the fingers of her left hand hanging by her side shrank slightly.
As for Luna, who was standing opposite her, she turned her head as usual and gave Maka a natural smile.
However, Maka didn't smile.
He just casually glanced at the book in Luna's hand and already knew which book it was. This book was mentioned in the information he sent to RA members. It is a theoretical book that can be referenced when practicing protective spells.
However, the knowledge in this book is definitely very boring, and researching it is quite time-consuming. The strings of magic formulas and detailed data on blockbusters there are definitely not what students with Luna's personality would like.
So, what was the reason for her to pick up such a heavy and tasteless book on such a dark night
Maka looked at Luna's calm and somewhat serious face, and then at Hermione's slightly curled and trembling hand, and couldn't help but take a gentle breath of paper and ink in the library. breath of air.
The old and distant familiar smell made his heart calm down a little.
Hermione Granger is a strong and visionary outstanding girl - he has been defining her without permission; Luna Lovegood is an innocent and ordinary girl who loves freedom - he has always defined her ideals Forced upon her.
However, this is just a... rude and one-sided subjective idea.
It was this scene before her that unabashedly proved to Maka that everyone was complete. He couldn't just let Hermione face everything on her own just because he believed she was strong-willed; nor could he try every means to shield her from the wind and rain just because Luna was indifferent.
The facts clearly told him that these two girls were moving forward step by step on their own life paths, and their futures were also unknown.
Maybe the cause of today's incident was related to emotion, but apart from the emotional entanglement between the three of them, this was also the fault that Tamakar had to bear.
"I'm sorry," Maka looked at the two girls and said, "Luna, Hermione, I thought I could understand you, but now I realize that I am probably too self-righteous."
"M-Maka?"
Hermione finally turned around, and there seemed to be some confusion on her face as she looked over. It was rare for Maka to admit her mistake once in her life, not to mention that she didn't understand why Maka suddenly apologized.
Luna, on the other hand, although she also looked over, there was only a hint of tenderness in her always erratic eyes. That expression seemed to say that Maka didn't actually do anything wrong.
"Hermione, um..." Maka thought for a while, then smiled gently and said, "No one will tell you not to work hard, but take a good rest when it's time to rest - be careful, I'm watching!"
