Chapter 1296 Delphi McLean
"sorry."
At that moment, what Delphi felt was Maca's sudden gentleness, and what Delphi touched was Maca's warm and firm embrace. But at the same time, what she heard was Maca's apology.
She didn't know why Maca apologized, let alone what the word "sorry" meant. At that moment, she suddenly had a bad premonition.
Yes, Delphi always firmly believed that Maca would not harbor ill intentions towards her.
After all, Maca didn't even pursue the fact that she had done something wrong with Luna, but was just trying to restore it-this obviously shows that Maca really regards her as a relative...well, at least He also treated her as a true friend.
However, when it comes to specifics about Maca's current thoughts, and what kind of deep meaning this hug and apology contain, she naturally has no idea.
However, no matter what, Delphi, who was greedy for his father's hug, didn't push Maca away, let alone became wary.
Undoubtedly, this embrace was something she had missed for a long time and she was looking forward to every day, and she was really reluctant to let her slip away from her in a hurry.
However, at the very next moment, Delphi suddenly felt some invisible dizziness attack quietly. She really didn't expect that Maca's answer to the "I'm sorry" would come so quickly.
Immediately afterwards, Delphi could no longer stand up, and her feet were so soft that she was about to slip and sit on the floor. Fortunately, Maca was always paying attention to this, and Dang even hugged her tightly again in time.
"……dad."
"Well, my good daughter... If you are sleepy, go to sleep for a while! Dad has been here all the time."
When Delphi called Maca for the last time and heard Maca admitting herself for the first time, she finally fell into a coma completely in a certain hazy sense of happiness, and knew nothing when her eyes went dark.
Seeing this, Maca hugged her and stood there for a while, until she confirmed that she had indeed passed out under the influence of the soul rule, and then gently hugged her to another sofa next to Luna.
Then, the natural warm smile on Maca's face gradually faded away, and she returned to her usual calmness.
"I'm sorry," Maca looked at Delphi's sweet sleeping face, repeated the apology again, and then said, "Delphi, it's been so long for you... sleep well! After you... and Luna wake up from this sleep,
Let's deal with that despicable and evil Haierbo together. "
Having said that, Maca didn't do anything to the unconscious Delphi, but at the same time he didn't leave. He just sat directly on the floor with his back against the sofa and took out his Time-Turner from his arms.
Afterwards, I saw him holding the thin golden chain, and he didn't move the small hourglass in the middle of the ring pendant, just letting it swing back and forth in front of his eyes.
"... Cough, cough cough."
It must be said that this converter is of great significance to him, and it carries the hope of saving Luna.
Without it, Delphi's plan might have been successful—because there might be more time-turners in this world, but Maca might not necessarily be able to find them.
And even if he finally found another one, who knew when that would be?
Was it after the meteorite fell from the sky? Or after Hai Erbo completed the demon summoning technique? Even, will it be impossible to find it until London falls completely?
Thinking of this, Maca couldn't help shaking his head slowly, and then took the converter's hourglass pendant into his palm with the gold chain.
Immediately, he actually took out a small dagger from his waist and carved it carefully on the outside of the golden ring used to fix the hourglass.
"Delphini McKellen."
That's right, Maca engraved Delphi's name on the curved surface outside the golden ring, and he still used his surname. Leaving aside what he was going to do, at least this behavior seemed to mean that he finally affirmed the significance of Delphi to him, Maca McClain.
After finishing all this, Maca put the converter back into his breast pocket, stood up, and looked back at the faces of the two girls who were in similar grades.
"Rest well, have a good dream... wait for me to come back."
I don't know who he said this to... Oh, maybe both of them have a share?
After saying so softly, he didn't hesitate any longer, picked up the magic staff that was set aside, turned his head and walked towards the stairs.
When leaving here, he also set up a strict protective magic at the entrance to this floor to prevent anyone from breaking into it intentionally or unintentionally.
"Okay, next, it's time to face the rules of time."
...
Although Maca had already guessed the support team of Ilvermorny in the United States, he hadn't paid too much attention to it, because he had always prioritized things very clearly.
Compared to this world, all it takes to turn the Time Turner is an instant. No matter how many times he turned, how many times he went back, it would definitely not take much time.
After saving Luna, he will deal with the misty disaster in London. He knows all about it first and then.
However, Barlow Stewart, the principal of Ilvermorny who led the team, obviously had no way of knowing Maca's thoughts.
"Professor Stuart, you are here!"
On the edge of the chaotic battlefield, the deputy leader of the American Volunteers who had just come into contact with Sirius greeted Barlow.
"How is it? Have you seen Mr. McLean?"
"No," Barlow shook his head upon hearing that. "That Mr. Lupine doesn't know where he is either. I only got news that he's in London—as for the specific location, I don't know yet."
"Oh! I still wanted to meet that unborn genius boy! In the end, even you didn't see him."
Seeing the other party shaking his head and sighing deeply, Barlow could only wave his hand to signal him to pay attention to the battlefield. Then he pulled out his wand, and then said:
"Anyway, we'll see you sooner or later, so don't be distracted right now... Have you found out the situation on the battlefield here? Has the person we sent to the other side returned?"
"Yes!" Hearing the words, the deputy immediately changed his expression, and replied seriously, "According to the previous arrangement, I formed six teams in twos and two to go out, and now two teams have returned. Look, the situation on this largest battlefield has also stabilized... It seems that our trip this time may be wasted."
"You don't need support anymore?" Barlow couldn't help nodding his head when he heard him say that, "Well... Isn't it good to 'take a trip for nothing'? We have no risk of losing manpower, and we have shown at least With the humanitarian spirit, the Magic Congress can be considered to be able to do business... Of course, the more important thing is that the situation in London has finally stabilized."
From Barlow's words, it can actually be heard that they also bear a lot of pressure on this trip.
Although the chairman of the Congress passed their application to support London, the opposition obviously still exists. If the loss is too large, or if there are any incidents that are not conducive to the American magic community, then he, the principal, and the Magical Congress of America who advocated support The chairman will be criticized.
But now, if they can successfully complete this support without leaving any excuses in the eyes of the opposition parties in the Congress, then their trip will be considered right.
After all, the "Obscurant Riot" incident that Maca resolved in the United States was a debt owed by the American magic community to the British magic community. If this can be paid back, it will naturally be good for their American magic community.
Not to mention, Barlow brought volunteers to help British wizards this time, but he actually had a little "selfishness".
You know, the Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in the United States has a lot to do with Hogwarts - Isolt Thayer, the founder of Ilvermorny, was born in the Gaunt family, that is, A descendant of Salazar Slytherin.
Her husband, who co-founded Ilvermorny with the old witch named "Thayer", was also named "James Stewart".
Yes, the current headmaster, Barlow Stewart, is the offspring of the founders of Ilvermorny.
To be honest, it was obviously impossible for Barlow to have any feelings for Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. But his father had a good relationship with Dumbledore back then...Well, in fact, the relationship between Hogwarts and Ilvermorny has always been good.
It was for this reason that Barlow came to London to provide support, instead of the superficial excuse of "thanks to Maca McLean for his help" that even the people he brought thought.
"Go back now, the old man will stop nagging in front of me, right?"
After curling his lips secretly, Barlow quickly returned to his usual serious state, raised his legs and left the alley, walking towards the battlefield ahead - as you can see, Sirius is over there command operations.
Right now, Barlow intends to go over and ask, to see if there is anything that supporters like them can help.
"Boom!"
As soon as he stepped into the battlefield, soon there was a curse leaking from the front line to this side. And from here, one can feel that even though the situation has eased and stabilized a little, the battle is still quite fierce.
With a slight swing of his staff, he easily blocked the shattering curse, seemingly effortlessly.
As one of the principals of Ilvermorny, Barlow's strength is naturally beyond doubt. I saw him rushing forward, bouncing off sporadic spell blocks from time to time, and even helped others block a few attacks along the way.
It wasn't until he came near the main team led by Sirius that he barely stopped.
"Mr. Black?"
