Chapter 1260 Enlightenment
The Time-Turner is here, but Maca can't use it right away.
As far as Delphi's future is concerned, he who insists on using the converter to go back to the past and try to save Luna will be seriously injured.
After that, the British magic world lost the only wizard who could destroy Hai Erbo's ambition, and there was no obstacle to the completion of the demon summoning ceremony.
Not to mention how many wizards and Muggles will suffer catastrophe during Haierbo's reign of terror in the future, Maca himself will eventually disappear without a trace.
In order to prevent the future in Delphi's memory from being repeated, Maca knew that no matter how impatient he was, he had to think clearly before talking about other things.
However, the reality is always full of contradictions.
Obviously, the longer this time dragged on, the more variables there would be, and the possibility that he could save Luna's life would become even slimmer.
"Yes, getting the Time Converter is just the beginning."
Maca, who had just returned to London, stood on the street frowning slightly, her expression full of dignity. Seeing that he calmed down and thought for a moment, he whispered to himself:
"In short, let's find a place to study the time rules! Now that there is a converter, at least five hours of backtracking can be used as soon as possible."
But just when he was about to leave here and find a suitable place to implement his ideas, a familiar figure suddenly appeared on the sidewalk in front of him.
"...you finally found another converter."
Maka looked directly at the figure not far away, and couldn't help but sighed softly.
"Delphi, how do you know?"
That's right, the person who came was Delphi, who was supposed to be staying in the Leaky Cauldron - a "large" daughter that Maca met by accident not long ago.
As for Maca's question, Delphi, who was wearing a short wizard robe, quickly shook his head.
"Don't worry about why I know, because I just know, there is no reason." She said with a serious expression, "I just... I just want to tell you that everything you do is meaningless. I beg you, don't do these meaningless things anymore... Dad, I beg you, don't do these things that will only hurt yourself."
Listen to Delphi's words,
Maca was silent, not knowing what to say.
There is no doubt that no matter what Delphi says, he will not give up on Luna. But facing Delphi who was begging to himself, his heart became more and more heavy.
After closing his eyes slightly to gather his composure, Maca opened his eyes again and looked at Delphi opposite.
"I'm sorry," he said, "maybe you're right, what I'm going to do may be very dangerous, and it may even kill me. But no matter how dangerous it is, I have to go. "
Just as he was talking, Maca paused for a while, then turned around and said:
"But don't worry... Delphi, I will find a way to create the most perfect ending. Believe me, no matter what, I will try my best to find the most correct path."
"Do not!"
After Delphi heard it, she couldn't help but clenched her fists and said loudly to Maca:
"It's not 'maybe', and it's not 'possible'! There won't be any 'perfect ending'! You can't do it, understand? Dad, you can't change that!"
"You——" Maca looked at Delphi, paused again, and said, "Why do you think I can't do it? In fact, haven't many things changed? Even including you standing in front of me now, isn't that Is it the most obvious change?"
Maca's words made Delphi purse her lips involuntarily—was she persuaded by Maca? Was it because of Maca's words that he realized the change between the past and the future?
No, looking at her hesitant expression, it seems that this is not the case.
After a few seconds of hesitation, Delphi finally lowered his head and said softly in a sad tone:
"Dad...you are wrong. I am still standing in front of you until now, which means that many things have not changed..."
After saying this first, she suddenly sighed again, and her mood became even more depressed.
"Father, in fact, I know that after losing Miss Lovegood, your heart has never been at peace. It is only because there is still possibility, hope, and many people who need you, so you will forcefully maintain With superficial composure."
Delphi lowered his eyes and said faintly:
"But Dad, calm down, calm down and think about it! Use your true wisdom to think carefully about why I came here, and why I'm still here... With Dad's intelligence, the answer is actually It's here."
"Well, no. Dad, maybe you are clear in your heart... If you can really change everything by relying on the time converter in your hand, then I... it will be impossible for me to come and say these things to you again, no ?"
Speaking of this, Delphi suddenly raised his head again, and his bright and clear eyes met Maca's sight straightly.
Then, she saw her take a few steps forward and stood in front of him.
"Father," Delphi stared seriously at Maca's eyes, and said softly with a slightly trembling voice, "Look at me carefully——what kind of consciousness do you think I came to you with?" what!"
consciousness.
This is an extremely heavy word.
And when this word comes out of Delphi's mouth, the meaning it contains will become even heavier - so heavy that no one can easily bear it.
Yes, maybe Maca actually understands. He should know that once the future is changed, the Delphi who came back from that future to the present will also cease to exist.
In fact, not long ago, in the mirrored space created by Haierbo, Delphi was ready to die with Muriel, the core of the demon summoning ceremony.
Because the termination of the summoning ceremony means that the future will undergo tremendous changes. In the future, she will not go back to the past at all costs, and the bright future will not belong to her at this moment.
This was Delphi's awakening... From the very beginning, she had already made up her mind to die.
"Father...the rules are the rules, and they don't forgive anyone. The future may be changeable—there must be a limit, we just can't grasp that limit. But the rules of time will never change—" Anyone who dares to stand in front of it and challenge it will be crushed mercilessly by it."
Every word and every word Delphi said made Maca speechless.
He knew that what the other party said was the truth. Including the turbulent emotions in his heart, his trying to pretend to be calm, and his stubbornness that almost ignored the facts that were almost obvious in front of his eyes.
Delphi is right, as long as she is still standing in front of her, it means that the future has not been changed. No, maybe there was a slight change, but it was not enough to reach the level he expected.
Maka looked at the girl in front of her, and was silent for a long time, before reaching out her hand wordlessly to pat her on the head.
"Then let me think about it!"
Having said that, Maca walked past her and walked forward along the road step by step.
Delphi subconsciously touched the spot on his forehead where Maca had just patted, then turned his back to Maca, covered his mouth and coughed lightly twice.
She didn't make any sound, just to prevent Maca from finding out.
But obviously, Maca got the development of Time Converter, which still had some influence on her. And it was precisely because of the aggravation of the injury that she realized in such a timely manner that Maca still obtained a time-turner.
After silently coughing twice, Delphi turned her head slightly, and silently looked at the back of Maca leaving.
"what are you waiting for?"
Suddenly, Maca, who was almost submerged in the fog, turned around, looked at Delphi and said:
"Follow up quickly!"
"Ah, um."
Delphi was stunned for a moment, then trotted two steps hastily, hurried to Maca's side, and couldn't help reaching out and hugging Maca's arm.
"Hey, this...isn't very good," Maka slightly pulled out his arm slightly in embarrassment, "Look, you are so big after all... right?"
Delphi pursed her lips and looked at Maca with some resentment. Not long after, Maca was defeated by her disappointed eyes.
Maka raised her hand and said helplessly:
"Just the sleeves, nothing more."
Before he finished speaking, Delphi grabbed his sleeve, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
In the gray mist, the two silhouettes who looked about the same height were gradually covered up, and quietly disappeared on the other side of the street.
"Ugh……"
