Chapter 1266 Delphi's Decision

"Actually, I killed Miss Lovegood."

When these words came out of Delphi who was sobbing, Maca was really stunned.

Yes, he still vaguely remembered that when Luna was slapped flying by Haierbo backhand, it was Delphi who caught her who was flying horizontally. When Maca realized that Luna had died on the spot, she was already in Delphi's arms.

In that short time difference, Maca obviously had no way of knowing what method Delphi used.

But he never thought that Luna's death was actually caused by Delphi himself!

Looking at Delphi in front of him who was still crying, and recalling Luna's pale face that had long since lost its color, Maca couldn't help but feel a little at a loss at this moment.

"……why?"

Maca stared at Delphi's drooping face, and asked in a daze.

To be honest, he really didn't understand, he didn't understand why Delphi would do that... Or, did Luna's death do her any good?

No, it doesn't seem to be beneficial at all, unless... She was lying about many things from the beginning. Her purpose may not be to come back to help Maca end Hai Erbo's evil deeds, or maybe she may not even be the future "Delphie Fisher".

Could it be that all this is a lie?

While in a trance, Maca suddenly shook her head. So far, all signs have shown that the girl in front of her is indeed Delphi, and she has already told many future scenes that can be traced.

However, it was precisely because Delphi either simply kept silent, or told the truth, the matter that was presented to her at this moment seemed to be an undoubted fact.

So...why? Why did she put Luna to death so cruelly?

Obviously, when Maca took her to Hogwarts, the first person who accepted her and wanted to be friends with her was the kind and innocent Luna!

"why?"

When Maca asked a difficult question in a puzzled tone, Delphi suddenly raised his hand and wiped his beard on his tear-stained face.

"It's simple, because she must die!"

"what?"

"She must die!" Delphi repeated with gritted teeth, and then stared at Maca without hesitation, "Yes, if I didn't make it up secretly, she would not have died. ...but she won't wake up for the rest of her life. And if she doesn't die, you'll go crazy! You'll use the Time-Turner like crazy to save her!"

"Did you know? Ms. Granger told me herself, at that time, you were a desperate lunatic! You looked calm on the surface, but you were already insane in your bones!"

"Miss Lovegood's semi-immortality has instead become your hope to revive her at the cost of your life. You won't spend any more time on preparations, and you won't have time to consider the threat that Hai Erbo poses to the whole of Britain... ...in your mind, there is only the idea of ​​'rescue Miss Lovegood first'."

If Luna was still alive... If Luna didn't die on the spot this time, what would Maca do? Not to mention the specifics, at least he will definitely try any possible recovery method when he finds that Luna cannot be revived.

Among them, it must include the timely use of the time converter to grab time.

Having said that, Delphi pursed her lips, looked directly at Maca with her red eyes and said:

"But you know what? Like I said before you flipped the Time-Turner again and again and never got Miss Lovegood back,

On the contrary, he suffered serious injuries all over his body, and almost couldn't come back at all! "

Maca tensed his face, silently listening to Delphi say these words, and finally he said numbly:

"So, is that why you decided...to just kill Luna?"

"yes."

When Delphine gave such a simple and clear answer with his neck straightened and his red eyes staring, Maca suddenly raised his hand.

"Are you going to hit me? Or, are you going to kill me?"

Delphi was still looking straight at Maca, with tears still on her face, she heard her loudly and stubbornly:

"Then kill me! Anyway, I will die in the end, I would rather die by your hands!"

Maca's arm froze.

Should I say... as expected of Tom Riddle's daughter? Leaving aside other things for the time being, just this determination to be ruthless and kill the killer at a critical moment is almost exactly the same as Voldemort.

It's just that there is a big difference in the way of doing things between the two.

Voldemort always kills for himself; but Delphi kills for others.

"How...how can you do it?" Maca took a deep breath, fixedly looked at Delphi's tear-stained face and said, "Did Luna treat you badly? Could it be that you didn't have the slightest bit when you did it?" hesitation?"

"Okay," Delphi said with tears in her eyes, "but, to me, she is just a friend I have just met... But you are my most respected and favorite father. You see, in my heart , this choice cannot be called a choice at all.”

Upon hearing this, Maca stared at her blankly for a while, then suddenly shook her head slightly.

"In that case, why are you crying?"

This time, Delphi didn't speak.

In fact, it’s not just about crying. As early as when Delphi choked up and said that she was not worth being protected by Maca, those words had already revealed her inner guilt and sadness.

In some characters, Delphi and her biological father are indeed a bit similar, but they are still two completely different people after all. Voldemort can naturally kill without apology, but Delphi will not be indifferent to this.

After a moment of silence, Maca turned around suddenly, turned her back to Delphi and took another two steps towards the edge of the roof. Immediately afterwards, he turned his head and asked softly:

"According to what you just said, I used the time-turner many times before Luna died?"

"Yes," Delphi replied curtly, "that's what Ms. Granger told me."

Her address to Hermione was "Ms. Granger", which was naturally because, after meeting Hermione in the future, she called her that.

After hearing her affirmative reply, Maca continued to ask:

"Then do you know what happened to me when I used the converter so many times?"

"No, I don't know," Delphi said, "Ms. Granger didn't know either, and I asked you yourself later, but you refused to say it once... All I know is that you failed, you failed to save Back to Miss Lovegood."

So when Maca got the time converter before, Delphi immediately blocked it, because she knew that using the time converter was futile. Not to mention, it has been far more than five hours since Luna died.

Maca thought silently, and after a while, he frowned and said:

"You shouldn't have destroyed the Time Turner... If I could go back in time at that time, even if I couldn't save Luna, at least five hours would allow me to make a lot of attempts."

"Look!" Delphi looked at Maca's back and said, "Even though Miss Lovegood is gone, you still don't want to give up... If she hasn't died, you can imagine what you think .”

"That can't be"

To be honest, Maca didn't know how to evaluate Delphi's choice. Although he couldn't accept the fact that Delphi killed Luna at all, but... what could he do with Delphi?

First, Delphi's original intention was not for herself at all, but for Maca; second, she had been prepared to die in this era before she came here, even now To the point of wanting to die.

However, Luna's death still caused Maca a lot of pain in his heart. The feeling of soreness and distress in his chest made him feel a little breathless.

After a while, Maca suddenly waved his backhand and sighed:

"Delphi, you go back first! I want to be alone here for a while."

Behind him, Delphi was still wiping away tears that still couldn't stop, and when he heard his words, he just nodded silently.

Although she still wanted to say something, in fact, at this moment, both she and Maca might need some time to sort out their feelings.

Therefore, in the end, she closed her tongue, bit her lower lip, turned her head and left the roof.

After leaving Maca alone outside, and she entered the stairwell leading to the roof, she closed the door and sat down on the stair steps as if she had lost all her strength.

In the dark stairwell, shadows were used to quietly cover the tears on her face, as well as the bitterness in her expression.

In fact, she shouldn't have said those words just now. As long as she doesn't tell, Maca won't know the truth about Luna's death, so he may be able to calmly face the coming crises.

However, just like Maca asked her why she was crying before, Delphi had already accumulated too much pressure in her heart.

Luna is such a good girl, but for Maca, she has to let this girl die. Otherwise, there is no possibility of changing everything in the future.

However, guilt is still entangled in Delphi's heart. It is not only her guilt towards Luna, but also an apology to Maca.

"I didn't do anything wrong," Delphi said while sitting on the steps, "and... I don't even want my own life. As long as my father is fine, is there any problem with taking another life?"

Beyond the mist, the setting sun in the west gradually sinks into the horizon, and the prelude to the third night will come quietly.

In a trance, Maca felt that the whole world had completely darkened.
