Chapter 1714 Extraordinary Momentum
When everyone learned what happened to Maca this morning, the sun had already set towards the western horizon. The red sunset covered the sparkling sea, and also burned half of the sky red.
In the living room on the first floor of the wizard's tower, Mr. Blois fumbled for the handle of his wand, reminding everyone not to be impulsive and panic, while telling the situation of Maca with a serious face.
"...I must emphasize that Mr. McLean only asked me to take Mr. Potter there! I know that you may be very worried, but after seeing his state this morning, I also think the same. Too many people shouldn't be allowed to pass - that's not a force that normal people can bear."
"So, you just wait here this time! I believe this is what Mr. McLean hopes."
Having said that, he added at the end:
"By the way, there is another point that should be very important to you—Mr. McLean himself will definitely not suffer any harm because of this accident, so...you don't have to worry too much about his safety."
Having said that, the living room suddenly fell into silence, and everyone was silently digesting the "big event" he just mentioned.
After all, even if they don't know the rules of magic, they also know that what Maka is doing must be very dangerous.
Especially Wei Li, when she heard that Maca had reinfused the blood curse that had been withdrawn from her body back into her body, she gave her father a rare look. Looking at her eyes, it was as if she was asking her father why instead of trying to stop him, he finally agreed to help Maca.
However, she did not blame Mr. Blois after all.
After a while, Hermione, who had been sitting by the side without speaking, finally spoke.
"Mr. Blois...you know, why...why did Maca remind you to ask Harry to bring the sword of Gryffindor?"
Facing Hermione's inquiry, Mr. Blois obviously showed hesitation. Because even though Maca didn't explain it at the time, he already had some conjectures that were not difficult to deduce.
In fact, Hermione probably could guess some of it herself, she just didn't want to believe it.
After being silent for a while, Mr. Blois turned his head to look at Harry, frowned slightly and said:
"Mr Potter,
We should go--Mr. McLean hasn't come back yet, and somebody has to go and see what's going on. And then there's... hold the sword. "
Not far away, Harry, who was sitting with Ron on the barrel next to the shelf, moved his feet subconsciously when he heard this. In fact, the sword of Gryffindor had been leaning against his arms all the time. The bright sword reflected the sunset light coming in from the window, showing a slightly deserted golden red.
However, his hands were still on his lap, and he instinctively resisted the hilt of the sword that he could touch by raising his hand.
You know, since he was reluctantly accepted by the Gryffindor sword, he even put it behind the pillow and slept on the hilt of the sword when he slept. It was the first time for him to refuse to hold the sword like this.
"Mr. Potter."
After Blois yelled again, Harry pursed his lips tightly, held the sword with a sullen face, and then slowly stood up.
"...Harry."
Ron watched the other party from the side, watching the other party walk towards Mr. Blois step by step, and then the two walked out from the gate one after the other.
During the whole process, everyone involuntarily cast their eyes on the two of them, including Ron, who felt hesitant to speak.
But until the end, they still decided to obey Mr. Blois...or to obey Maca, no one spoke again.
Although, the wait is often disconcerting.
"Crack."
The door was closed.
However, this time the waiting was unexpectedly not tormenting, because before the friends even had time to think about it, the door that Harry had just closed was opened again.
Then, Harry and Mr. Blois both retreated from the door.
At that moment, Hermione and the others stood up abruptly from their chairs, and immediately after, everyone saw a familiar figure walking in through the outer door with steady steps.
And almost at the same time, everyone suddenly felt a strange aura blowing towards them. It's hard to explain that kind of feeling—maybe it's an aura similar to that of ancient kings that would make people kneel down and submit unconsciously, but after a closer look, it doesn't seem to be the case.
"It seems...Mr. Blois has already told you everything about this morning?"
Maca, who had just walked in from the door, glanced briefly at the living room. And as his gaze flicked across, everyone had the illusion that his gaze was as real as it was.
"Maka, you... succeeded?"
Harry, who was standing beside him, hesitated for a moment, then asked in a daze.
However, Maca did not give an answer immediately. He paused on the spot for a moment, as if he was still experiencing some feelings, and finally shook his head calmly.
"It should...cannot be called 'success'."
For Maca, this seems to be a very difficult question to answer. Of course, what he considered must be more complicated than what the friends thought.
And this point, Maca is obviously very clear.
So after pondering for a while, he turned to say:
"In short, there are still some gains. At least I have regained the ability that a wizard should have—even, it is probably more suitable for dealing with Hai Erbo than before."
After using these words to soothe the uneasiness in everyone's heart, Maca waved his hand and said:
"Don't think about it, I'm fine... Oh, I just saw today's dinner is ready outside, so let's eat early! To be honest, I'm a little hungry."
Having said that, Maca greeted everyone and walked out of the wizard's tower, going to the camp outside to fill his empty belly. And after everyone saw that Maca was not abnormal, but also had a powerful aura, they all felt more at ease in their hearts.
However, Delphi, who was walking at the end, still seemed to have a hint of doubt in his eyes. She looked at Luna in front of her, and when she noticed that there seemed to be a little confusion on the other person's face, she couldn't help but walked up and asked casually:
"Mr. McLean... Is he different from before?"
"Oh! Do you think so too?" Luna nodded immediately after hearing this, "Actually, I also feel this way... Delphi, I think Maca has become more handsome again!"
"what?"
Before the words fell, Delphi watched Luna wave her hand in astonishment, and then ran straight ahead.
